Zhong Liyang glanced at Hu Guangyou thoughtfully, "Director Hu, do you know anything else?"
Hu Guangyou shook his head and said, "Even if I still know something, the original suspicious evidence has been destroyed. You can't find anything if you want to. The fastest way to find clues is to start with the experts in the province."
After Hu Guangyou finished speaking, he saw Zhong Liyang still staring at him and smiled helplessly, "Liyang, are you really trying to dig out all the secrets from me? To tell you the truth, the bar where the incident happened that night The surveillance can indeed reveal some doubts, but the surveillance that night has been destroyed long ago, I can tell you this unmistakably."
Zhong Liyang said, "Director Hu, since you know that the bar surveillance that night was suspicious, you should know who was in contact with Cao Qinming's daughter that night, and who has the biggest suspicion."
Hu Guangyou sighed, "I can't tell you this, because there is no evidence if I say it now. At the beginning, I had an attitude of hiding from this matter and never asked about it personally. In addition, Secretary Zhang Ruinan, who was in office at the time, also kept It hinted that the case should be settled as soon as possible, so I let the people below do it."
Zhong Liyang looked shocked, "Director Hu, what do you mean by this is that the people in our bureau who handled the case also had problems?"
Hu Guangyou took a deep look at Zhong Liyang and said, "Liyang, there are some things I don't want to say more, but if you want to start from within the bureau, I'm afraid someone will join forces and tear them apart before you even start. That expert from the province This is your best breakthrough, you can only investigate this matter from the outside."
Zhong Liyang laughed after hearing this, "Even if I want to check, I don't have the authority."
Hu Guangyou said, "So the clue I just gave you is that you took the initiative to submit a petition to Secretary Qiao. If the case of Cao Qinming's disappearance can be found out in your hands, you will not only have made a great contribution, but you will also be able to obtain Secretary Qiao's name." With your appreciation, it will only be a matter of course for Secretary Qiao to promote you."
Zhong Liyang looked at Hu Guangyou and said, "Director Hu, why don't you tell Secretary Qiao these words? You said that you won't be the director in two days, but haven't the relevant appointments in the city not been released yet? As long as Tell Secretary Qiao what you are saying now, and follow Secretary Qiao's instructions to investigate the disappearance of Cao Qinming. I believe that Secretary Qiao can keep your position as director as long as he fights with the city leaders. "
Hu Guangyou laughed dumbly, "Li Yang, don't you understand me yet? I'm just timid and afraid of getting into trouble, otherwise why would I be living like this now? I don't want to join in the same trap with some people, but I'm also afraid of being targeted, so I I just pretended to be getting along, always going to every drinking party, and drinking others down every time, so that I got the nickname "The Holy Drinker."
Zhong Liyang didn't know what to say for a moment. Hu Guangyou did quite a lot in his early days as director, but later on, he did nothing. He also knew Hu Guangyou quite well and knew that Hu Guangyou was indeed afraid of getting into trouble. He must have despised Hu Guangyou's behavior. , Zhong Liyang doesn't have the qualifications, after all, Hu Guangyou had promoted him in the first place.
Hu Guangyou then continued, "Li Yang, I'm telling you this because I don't have the guts to do this myself, and I don't want to cause any more trouble. I just want to live quietly until retirement, but you are motivated." , and you are still young, so you are different from me. If you want to take the initiative to gain Secretary Qiao's appreciation and support, now is your opportunity. Of course, the most important point is that if I never say this, I will always I feel guilty because I'm afraid my conscience won't be able to overcome it when I get older."
Zhong Liyang couldn't help but fell silent after listening to Hu Guangyou's words. Perhaps because of his conscience, he made Hu Guangyou tell the matter before he was transferred. He knew Hu Guangyou well, and the other party was not a person without bottom lines and principles, but as The other party said that being afraid of getting into trouble and avoiding things was indeed a major flaw of Hu Guangyou, and if he could use his hands to find out the matter, Hu Guangyou also wanted to give him some psychological comfort.
After a moment of silence, Zhong Liyang asked again, "Director Hu, I still want to ask, who was in contact with Cao Qinming's daughter in the bar? Since the other party has so much energy to suppress the matter, I think The identity of the other party must be easy to find out."
Hu Guangyou shook his head and said, "Liyang, it won't do you any good to know."
Zhong Liyang smiled and said, "Director Hu, since you want me to investigate further, you have to let me know, otherwise it will be a surprise when I look back. Don't I even know how I died?"
Hu Guangyou said, "Li Yang, if you say so, I really don't want you to touch this matter. The other party's energy is very great, even greater than I thought. If you try to touch this matter, you may not end up in trouble." good."
Zhong Liyang smiled bitterly and said, "Director Hu, you have told me the doubts and breakthroughs in this matter. Do you think I can hold back from investigating?"
Hu Guangyou didn't speak, with a hesitant look on his face. After a long time, Hu Guangyou said, "Li Yang, I can only tell you that among the young people who came into contact with Cao Qinming's daughter that night, one of them was Zeng Wenshan's son. , the surveillance at the entrance of the bar showed that Cao Qinming’s daughter took Zeng Wenshan’s son’s car to the bar.”
Zeng Wenshan? Zhong Liyang was once again stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that the circle would turn around Zeng Wenshan, the township secretary. More than a year ago, Zeng Wenshan was just the township chief, but regardless of whether Zeng Wenshan was the township secretary. It is impossible for Zeng Wenshan to have such great energy to suppress this matter whether he is the mayor or the township secretary now. It is impossible for Hu Guangyou, a deputy county magistrate and director of the county bureau, to be afraid of Zeng Wenshan. It can only be said that Zeng Wenshan is just putting it out there. There's a man on top, and there's a bigger fish behind.
Zhong Liyang wanted to ask more, but Hu Guangyou said, "Liyang, I've said everything I can say. If I keep talking, I might get burned. I still want to live well until I retire and enjoy my old age, so don't make things difficult for me." ."
Hearing what Hu Guangyou said, Zhong Liyang was speechless. If Hu Guangyou, the director, had been tougher, he might have reached a higher position by now. But then again, maybe Hu Guangyou would have been clear-cut by now.
Speaking of this, Zhong Liyang did not ask any more questions, and Hu Guangyou provided two clues: Zeng Wenshan's son and experts from the province. If the investigation continues, it should be enough to trace the truth.
While the two were talking, the skewers were also served. Hu Guangyou smiled and invited Zhong Liyang to drink, "Liyang, come on, barbecue and beer are a perfect match. Let's drink more tonight. If you want to see me again in the future, just We have to go to the city."
Hearing this, Zhong Liyang said, "Director Hu, I will have a drink with you that night. I haven't thanked you for your promotion to me before. I still owe you the wine until now."
Hu Guangyou laughed and scolded, "I'm the one who's treating you to a barbecue tonight. Why, you're using my treat money to thank me? Are you still sincere at all?"
Zhong Liyang smiled and scratched his head, "Then I'll treat you to this meal tonight."
Hu Guangyou smiled and said, "It's just a joke. Don't take it seriously. To be honest, the only thing that makes me happy in the past three years is that we have promoted a group of young cadres like you who can do things and take responsibility. At least they will be reserved for our county bureau." It gave me some sparks of hope.”
Zhong Liyang said solemnly, "Director Hu, in fact, you have done one thing very well. In the past three years as the chief, you have a very good reputation among the grassroots police officers. The brothers on the front line all know that you are really making plans for everyone." Welfare."
Hu Guangyou said disapprovingly, "That's just my minimum duty as a director."
Hu Guangyou said, greeting Zhong Liyang, "Okay, let's just drink. We won't talk about business anymore, we will just talk about the romantic and snowy night. We must finish this drink before leaving."
Hu Guangyou seemed very interested. He hadn't had skewers on the roadside for a long time. On a whim at night, he suddenly thought of inviting Zhong Liyang to a barbecue stall on the roadside.
The two of them drank wine and chatted casually. Soon they drank two bottles of beer. Suddenly, Hu Guangyou's cell phone rang. Hu Guangyou took out his cell phone and looked at the caller ID. His face changed slightly. He hesitated for a moment, but he still answered it. He stood up and put on a warm smile on his face, "Mr. Duan, what do you want from me so late?"
Mr. Duan on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "Director Hu, I'm a little hungry at night. I wonder if Director Hu would be interested in having a midnight snack with me?"
Hu Guangyou narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Mr. Duan invited me to have supper, so I have to go. Where are you now, Mr. Duan?"
Mr. Duan on the opposite side smiled and said, "I'm still in the same place, the club in the resort."
Hu Guangyou nodded and said, "Then I'll go over right now."
After hanging up the phone, Hu Guangyou said to Zhong Liyang, "Liyang, it seems that we can only finish half of this barbecue. You can stay and eat by yourself. Don't waste it. I'll take the first step."
Zhong Liyang asked curiously, "Director Hu, the Mr. Duan you are talking about is the Mr. Duan with great powers who has invested in many industries in our county?"
Hu Guangyou smiled and said, "Otherwise, who else would be Mr. Duan?"
Hu Guangyou paused as he spoke and glanced at Zhong Liyang meaningfully, "Liyang, maybe you will deal with him in the future. This Duan Jue has great hands and eyes."
After Hu Guangyou finished speaking, he stood up and left in a hurry. Zhong Liyang didn't think about Hu Guangyou's words for a while. Seeing that Hu Guangyou had not finished the large plate of kebabs he ordered, he thought he couldn't waste it, so he sat down to eat alone while thinking about Cao Qinming's daughter. The case of Cao Qinming's daughter may be a breakthrough in the investigation of Cao Qinming's disappearance.
In the resort area next to the Xifeng Canyon Scenic Area, Hu Guangyou took a car to the hotel halfway up the mountain and entered one of the floors with familiarity. There was a hotel club here.
Hu Guangyou was led to the restaurant by the staff. Duan Jue had already been sitting at the dining table. Hu Guangyou walked up with a smile on his face and said, "Mr. Duan, I am flattered that you still think of treating me to a supper so late. "
