Chapter 46: Reversing Black and White

At this time, Zhang Yi, deputy director of the Chengguan Police Station, who led the team to support, saw that a gangster was injured by a stray bullet, so he hurriedly called the 120 emergency number, and arranged for two policemen to help the injured person to the lobby downstairs to wait for the ambulance to come.

Subsequently, under the unified command of He Ying, Li Weijun and other six gamblers, Huang Lang and other security guards and hooligans who participated in the siege of the police, were escorted by the police into the police car outside the hotel and roared towards the county public security bureau......

Lu Tao, as a witness to Huang Lang and others' violent resistance to the law, also followed He Ying to the county bureau security brigade in a police car, and a squadron leader made a record for him, telling as a witness what he saw and happened after he went upstairs, and returned home at about 2 o'clock in the morning.

What made him strange was that in the process of catching the gambling, Liu Hong, the chairman of the O'Neill Hotel, and Liu Feiyan, the general manager, were not seen from beginning to end......

At seven o'clock the next morning, Lu Tao took a minibus to Huaguang Village, and did not tell Su Yaoguang and others about Li Weijun's arrest for gambling last night, but quietly continued to conduct research and fill in information in the village, and also visited two poor households in the village, and sent them 200 yuan of condolences respectively.

According to his estimate: Before noon, the news of Li Weijun's gambling arrest will spread all over Dalong Town, and Su Yaoguang and other village party secretaries will definitely know about it as soon as possible, and they will definitely tell it to themselves as an "explosive news".

However, when he returned to the village at around 11 o'clock, he saw Su Yaoguang, Su Xiancan and other village cadres sitting around the office chatting about something.

What surprised him even more was that when he saw him enter the office, Su Yaoguang said with a smile: "Cadre Lu, just now Secretary Li called me and said that next week the county magistrate Su will personally lead the village party secretaries of several new rural construction demonstration villages to the provincial capital to attend the province's 'new rural construction experience exchange meeting'. It is said that Chen Dengfeng, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee, and Zhou Bicheng, director of the organization department, will attend the meeting.

"Because Huaguang Village is now Secretary Zhou's help and linkage point, the county party committee and county government have determined that our village is a 'new rural construction demonstration village', and asked me to participate in this exchange meeting, maybe I will make a typical speech at the meeting. Cadre Lu, as you know, I am an old peasant who has no education and cannot speak, so if you want me to make a typical speech, I would like to ask you to write me a manuscript paper to briefly introduce the basic situation and achievements of the new rural construction in our village, okay?"

When Lu Tao heard that Li Weijun had just called Su Yaoguang, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and he didn't care about thinking about the experience exchange meeting, so he asked with round eyes: "Su Zhishu, are you sure that Li Weijun just called you? Where is he now? Is he in the county seat or in the town?"

Su Yaoguang looked at him strangely and replied, "In the town, he said that he wanted me to go over to discuss with him in the afternoon about going to the provincial capital to attend the experience exchange meeting!"

Lu Tao looked at Su Yaoguang with an incredulous gaze, and was stunned for a long time before muttering to himself: "Strange thing! What a strange thing! How is this possible?"

Su Yaoguang saw that he was a little depressed, and asked in surprise: "Cadre Lu, what's wrong with you? What do you say is impossible? Do you think that it is impossible for our village to be rated as a 'new rural construction demonstration village'?"

Lu Tao had no intention of asking questions with him at this time, so he said a few perfunctory words to him, and then hurriedly walked out of the village party secretary's office under the pretext of being in a hurry, went downstairs to a secluded corner, first dialed He Ying's mobile phone, but could not get through, and then called Zhou Youliang's mobile phone, but no one answered after connecting, and even called several times.

At this time, Lu Tao had already arrived that something was wrong, but there was no way to contact He Ying and Zhou Youliang, so he could only walk around on the cement floor on the first floor of the village like ants on a hot pot, waiting for He Ying or Zhou Youliang to call back uneasily......

At 12:05 p.m., Zhou Youliang finally called back and told Lu Tao something that shocked him beyond believability: At 10 o'clock in the morning, the party committee of the county public security bureau decided that He Ying would be detained for five days for violating citizens' personal rights and beating others, and Huang Chong would be detained for seven days for shooting and injuring others and beating others in general public security cases. At the same time, the party committee of the county bureau has reported the suspected serious violations of law and discipline by He Ying and Huang Chong to the county party committee, and the county party committee and the county discipline inspection commission will study and take measures to file a case and investigate them;

Li Weijun and the other six gamblers were ordered to be released and returned home last night because of insufficient evidence and because He Ying and others were at fault in enforcing the law......

Lu Tao was shocked, and a lot of doubts surged in his heart, so he asked in an anxious tone: "Zhou Bureau, the party committee of the county public security bureau has studied and dealt with the issue of He Ying and Huang Chong, and you have no objection? This is obviously a reversal of black and white! Is there any reason for law enforcers to be locked up and investigated, but lawbreakers to be released?"

Zhou Youliang sighed and said: "Xiao Lu, there are nine members in our party committee team, and the squad leader is Li Xuzhong, who has always engaged in dictatorship and 'one word hall,' and he has the final say in the party committee, so what's the use of me opposing it alone? Even if it is a show of hands, I only have one vote, and the other members of the party committee all act according to Li Xuzhong's eyes, and I can't make a sound alone! Moreover, Li Xuzhong seems to have sensed that I have something to do with last night's gambling arrest, and insinuated that I was in a hurry to take over and did not abide by his ban. Ouyang Qi and others also echoed him, criticizing me as the initiator of this gambling incident without naming me. Tell me, in such a one-sided situation, where do I have room for He Ying and Huang Chong to distinguish between them?"

Lu Tao knew that what he said was the truth, so he didn't dwell on this issue anymore, and instead asked: "Li Weijun and they have been arrested for gambling, why is there no evidence? Does Li Xuzhong dare to openly shelter gamblers?"

"Herein lies the problem. When He Ying and the others clashed with the security guards of the hotel last night, someone rushed into the room and destroyed the law enforcement recorder, and the gambling money at the scene was also hidden, so when Li Weijun and the others were interrogated, they insisted that they were just drinking tea and talking in the room at that time, and they were not gambling——"

"Aren't there still a few policemen and auxiliary policemen who participated in the gambling arrest at the scene?

Zhou Youliang sighed again and said in a heavy tone: "Xiao Lu, people's hearts are sinister! The policemen and auxiliary policemen who followed He Ying in to catch gambling, including the policeman who used the law enforcement recorder to record the video, were all subdued by Li Xuzhong and Ouyang Qi by means of threats and inducements, and they all said in good conscience that they did not see Li Weijun and others gambling when they went in. It seems that Xiao Ying and Huang Chong will not escape this time!"
