In the midst of the hustle and bustle, the time has come on January 11.

Today was supposed to be Saturday, so I didn't need to go to work, and Chu Tianqi got up a little late. But he was not idle, except for planning, that is, sorting out documents.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Tianqi was invited to attend a wedding, which was organized by Xiao Changhai for his son, and almost all the in-service leaders above the deputy department level in the county were invited. Chu Tianqi, as the deputy secretary of the county political and legal committee, a member of the party group of the county government, and the secretary of the party committee and director of the public security bureau, is naturally among them.

Perhaps in order not to attract attention, the wedding hotel was not selected in the center of the county, but chose an ecological garden restaurant about ten kilometers away from the city. The ceremony was held at noon on the 11th, and most of the guests attended the noon banquet, and some county and department-level leaders were arranged in the afternoon. This is not only for the privacy of the leaders, but also for the convenience of Xiao Changhai to accompany him, and of course, it is also convenient for the leaders to drink. To this end, the Xiao family also specially uses the bus of the ecological park for pick-up.

Chu Tianqi didn't bring a special car, but let Li Jian take a bus after sending it to the designated place. Most of the people on the bus were some deputy directors of the people's congress, deputy county magistrates of the government, vice chairmen of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and the top leaders of several important bureaus, and of course some members of the standing committee of the county party committee were also on the bus. Maybe people would prefer to be relaxed and free on the weekend, and most of them are lower than they are today, and there is no need to put on a score.

Most of the people in these counties lack the hypocrisy when they go to work, they talk and laugh, and occasionally make a harmless joke. Of course, this does not mean that there are no taboos in speaking, but it seems much more casual than usual, but people put on the mask of hypocrisy in life.

Talking and laughing, the bus arrived at the ecological park, and Xiao Changhai also walked to the front of the car in time to greet him. Today's Xiao Changhai lost his previous seriousness on his face, replaced with an amiable smile, and said "welcome" and "thank you" from time to time. When shaking hands with Chu Tianqi, in addition to expressing his gratitude, he also praised Chu Tianqi a few times, and said that he would have a few drinks for a while.

This ecological park was opened before the Spring Festival last year, and after he took office, there were several banquets here, but they were all pushed down by Chu Tianqi. Today he was here for the first time, so he observed as he went.

Although the ecological park seems to be located in a slightly remote area, the whole building is novel and atmospheric, and the indoor facilities are also very exquisite. And compared with the individual ecological gardens that Chu Tianqi had been to before, there was no smell similar to plant pesticides, and all he smelled was the primitive fragrance of flowers and plants.

At six o'clock, the dinner began, and all the dishes were very luxurious. The lobsters are in place, each in about three or four taels, the abalone is two abalones, and the sea cucumber is also very large. Needless to say, the standard of the midday meal is certainly not like this. Like this kind of food, Chu Tianqi has only eaten it once, or during the special training in * city last year, someone specially invited him, and that person also specifically emphasized that he was personally paying the bill.

Chu Tianqi's dining table is dominated by the political and legal system, with the presidents of the courts of law and procuratorate, the director of the judicial bureau, and several deputy secretaries of the political and legal committee, Qu Gang was also present. Although he is in the same system as these people, Chu Tianqi's position as deputy secretary of politics and law is mainly a name, and his usual focus is on the Public Security Bureau, and he is only a nodding friend with these people. Especially at a meeting of the political and legal system this year, the presidents of the two courts and the director of the judicial bureau were also very cold to him.

But today, these people suddenly became enthusiastic, not only flattering Chu Tianqi's courage in his work and solving major cases, but also congratulating Chu Tianqi in advance on his ascension, and some even said something like "Please take care of it in the future". Chu Tianqi understood that he had excelled in Xuyuan County in the past month, and the county leaders had also praised him by name several times at the meeting, so of course these people had to follow suit. People in officialdom are like this, icing on the cake abounds, but there are a few people who send charcoal in the snow.

Of course, once you enter the officialdom, you can't be more serious, don't put on a smiling face, you can't be cold-faced. Therefore, on the basis of being extremely modest, Chu Tianqi also interacted with everyone from time to time and frequently raised his glass. The atmosphere of the whole meal package was warm, laughter and laughter, many people gave Chu Tianqi a toast, but no one disturbed him to drink more, who dared to fight with "Chu Sanjin".

In the process of drinking, Xiao Changhai and his wife, son and daughter-in-law all came to toast, and Xiao Changhai also had a drink with Chu Tianqi, the "political and legal banner". As the second general manager, Zhao Boxiang also came to pay tribute to his political and legal colleagues.

Chu Tianqi not only interacted with other people constantly, but also drank several glasses with Zhao Boxiang and Qu Gang. The deputy has great respect for the main position, and the first leader gives face to the deputy, and the "troika" of the Public Security Bureau has created a harmonious scene. In fact, everyone knows that seeing may not be believing, but on such occasions, people will not be more serious.

……

It was nearly nine o'clock in the evening, the dinner was over, and everyone got on the bus back. There were fewer people in the car this time, and it may be that someone had already left in their own car.

After the bus entered the city, the driving route changed. When we came, we gathered at one place to take the bus, but when we returned, we had to drop everyone off at our respective drop-off locations along the way.

Many people have already gotten out of the car, and as long as the car passes through the fork in the road, it is time for Chu Tianqi.

"Squeak", the brakes sounded, and the car stopped suddenly.

Chu Tianqi stood up and looked forward, but saw some coal piles at the fork in the road, which seemed to have been thrown off when the coal truck turned a corner. If it's your own off-road vehicle passing, it should be perfectly fine. But if such a long bus passes by, the tires will inevitably roll over those lumps of coal, which will hit the bottom of the car or the body. Especially with the width of the bus body, it may not be possible to pass between any two piles of coal, and you have to ride a pile of coal.

The bus is very new, and it has just been two months since I got a new car. The driver was very hesitant, hesitating whether to pass directly or take a detour.

There is only one person in the road ahead, so why bother the driver, it is not far anyway. Thinking of this, Chu Tianqi said, "Master, open the door, I'll just walk back by myself." ”

"How is this ...... I'd better go around it. "The driver must know that the car is full of county leaders, how dare the service be flawed?

"It's okay, don't waste time here, let's hurry up and send off other guests, I'll be there in a few steps." With that, Chu Tianqi had already arrived at the car door.

"Okay, okay, thank you leader. The driver said thank you and opened the door.

After greeting his colleagues, Chu Tianqi got off the bus.

As soon as he got out of the car, he suddenly felt a cold wind coming, Chu Tianqi hurriedly put up the collar of his coat and walked forward quickly. After he passed the coals, the bus behind him slowly fell backwards, apparently illuminating himself with its headlights. This is the driver's response to being respected, and it is a way to show respect for himself, and respect is indeed mutual.

While sighing slightly, Chu Tianqi didn't stop, it was too cold this day, and he had to hurry back to the unit. It's not that the temperature outside is so low, the most important thing is that I've been in the car, I'm not prepared to walk long distances, and I'm wearing very thin clothes.

Looking at the fact that it is not far from the unit, the car is a matter of one foot on the accelerator, but it is also eight or nine hundred meters away, and it takes about ten minutes to walk quickly. Especially from time to time, there were tiny grit blowing on his skin, and Chu Tianqi had to shrink his neck as much as possible and walk slightly sideways. Today's wind is very strong, with a "whine" sound in the wind.

The street lights are very dim, and some bulbs are broken, and the light is very dim. With the frozen river on the left, the high walls of abandoned factories on the right, and the lack of other pedestrians on the road, the faint of heart may be scared. Of course, Chu Tianqi didn't feel this way, he just wanted to return to the unit as soon as possible.

"Woo" and "woo" two sounds came. Although the sound was extremely weak in the wind, Chu Tianqi's ears were so strong that he could hear that it was not the sound of the wind at all, but the cry of a person.

Where is it? As far as Chu Tianqi's eyes could see, he couldn't see a figure at all.

"Help, help......" came a woman's cry for help in the wind.

In the alley on the right front. Chu Tianqi had already judged the source of the sound and hurried there. As we got closer to the alley, the cries for help became clearer, mixed with the men's laughter.

When he came to the entrance of the alley, Chu Tianqi took out a small flashlight and shone it into the alley. I saw that not far from the entrance of the alley, there were seven or eight people, two of them were wearing pink clothes, and the rest were tearing pink clothes. This scene was clear at a glance, Chu Tianqi shouted "stop" and rushed towards the alley.

"Help, help. The cries for help were louder.

Hearing that someone was drinking, those people didn't take it seriously at all. One of them took a few steps forward, yelling at "nosy", while the others continued to tear apart.

"Stop. Chu Tianqi had already arrived in the alley and shouted again.

"Eat radish and worry about it, Lao Tzu is happy, it's your business. Someone on the other side called out, and it was still the person who scolded "nosy" just now.

Chu Tianqi stopped and shone a flashlight at the man, only to see that the other party was wearing a knitted hat and clothes with a stand-up collar. Because the man blocked the light with his arm in time, he didn't see the man's face clearly.

Chu Tianqi pointed at the other party and scolded: "Let the people go, otherwise you will look good." ”

"Shout, who didn't tie your pants and exposed you, how old are you?" the man continued to cover his face and scolded back.

"Help, help. The woman's cry continued.

"Look at how old I am?" When the words arrived, Chu Tianqi put away the flashlight and rushed towards the person quickly.

"Good boy, want to be nosy? Let you taste the power of the big *master. He shouted fiercely, but the man did not meet him, but turned around and ran.

was about to fly a kick, but he didn't want the guy on the other side to slip away. Chu Tianqi shook slightly, and then quickly rushed to the other people.

"Run. With a shout, the men ran quickly with two pink clothes.

Chu Tianqi stretched out his hand and grabbed the back placket of a pink dress, but this pink dress was still hugged by a fat man. He immediately flew up and kicked on the fat man, and as soon as the fat man let go, the pink clothes were pulled to Chu Tianqi's side.

"Help, I'm afraid, woo woo......" The woman in pink hugged Chu Tianqi's arm and cried.

The fat man's right hand touched his waist, and there was an extra thing in his hand, he stabbed Chu Tianqi viciously, gritted his teeth and said, "Look for death." ”

When he rescued the girl just now, Chu Tianqi was facing the fat man on his side, and he was about to turn around, but he saw that the fat man was holding something and poking it at him. With astonishing eyesight, he realized that it was a dagger.

Chu Tianqi's left hand was on the other side, and it was too late to make a move, but his right arm was held, and he saw that the dagger had been stained with his clothes, and the situation was extremely dangerous.
