As soon as he got to work on Monday morning, Chu Tianqi appeared at the gate of the Hexi Provincial Government.

Although it was not the first time to go to the provincial government, every time he came here, Chu Tianqi still had a sense of solemnity. The building here is not larger than the main building of the party and government building of Dingye City, and it seems to be slightly old, the national emblem is hung on the upper floors here, and the party and government buildings of Dingye City and Chengkang City are also hanged. But there is one thing, the provincial government here is the armed police standing guard at the gate, while Dingye and Chengkang City only have security guards or half-old men on duty at the gatehouse. Of course, whether or not there are armed police standing guard is only an appearance, and more importantly, the Chinese people have different degrees of awe of power.

After providing his ID card, work permit, registering relevant meeting information, and answering some inquiries, Chu Tianqi was allowed to enter the compound, but the vehicle was left outside the door.

For Chu Tianqi, it was a good choice to walk into the provincial government compound in the past, and he could just feel the unique style of the provincial and ministerial units. But today he was not in such a mood, but was more afraid of being discovered by some people, not only did he not look around, but he walked in a hurry, if it were not for the fear of being regarded as an ulterior motive, he would even want to trot along the wall.

Passing through the compound as calmly and quickly as possible, and after walking up multiple steps, Chu Tianqi arrived at the main building of the provincial government office building.

When you enter the lobby on the first floor, you still have to go through the registration formalities, and the inquiry process here is a little more detailed. Of course, the questions are also about the regular content, such as: which department to go to, who to meet, and what to do. If you are doing things normally, just answer them truthfully. In fact, the process of asking about these contents is not to inquire about the privacy of the parties, but to test whether the parties have abnormalities.

Seeing that the young man had completed the formalities and answered calmly and accurately, the security officer returned the documents to him, nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Chu Tianqi put away his documents, politely replied "thank you", and ran to the No. 3 elevator.

I came to the elevator and waited for a long time before the elevator stopped at the current floor and opened the car door. Now is the peak period of work, people go upstairs frequently, and the elevator is slow. A group of people waited to walk into the elevator, crowded to the brim, there were still many people who couldn't get in, so they could only wait for the next time or take other elevators, Chu Tianqi was lucky to squeeze into the car.

The elevator stopped and stopped, and when it stopped on the twelfth floor, Chu Tianqi got out of the car. After identifying the direction, I walked west and knocked on the door with the "Supervision Room" sign.

"Come in," a female voice came out of the room.

Chu Tianqi pushed open the door, walked into the room, and walked straight to the table in front of him. Before approaching, Chu Tianqi took out a document from his bag and handed it over: "Director Miao, hello! This is the "Report on the Promotion of Urban Planning Work in Chengkang City". ”

"By the way, you are Mayor Chu. The middle-aged woman behind the table let out an "oh" and took the paper, "Give me the report, and I'll send it to Director Zheng when I turn around, and ask him to take a look." ”

This woman is one of the deputy directors of the fifth supervision office of the provincial government, and Director Zheng is the director of the supervision department.

Seeing that the other party did not mean to ask on the spot, and his attitude was not lukewarm, Chu Tianqi withdrew from the house after saying "thank you". In fact, he was not willing to waste time on the on-site Q&A, but he was also worried about the other party's staring, and now it seems that he is too worried.

After coming out of the house, Chu Tianqi went directly into the second elevator, but instead of pressing the first floor, he pressed the seventh floor button. As worried, although the elevator shaft is marked as accessible on a single floor, it seems that individual floors still do not stop casually, at least from the building.

Since the elevator is not good, then take the stairs, the walking stairs have a fire function, and they cannot be closed or locked at will. Sure enough, Chu Tianqi successfully passed through the fire door and entered the walking stairs. During the descent from the stairs, he also made a point of observing the first floor, where the fire doors on each floor were not locked or closed. He was overjoyed, and soon reached the seventh floor, pushed the door and walked out.

"Hello, are you okay?" said a security officer in his thirties, looking up and down at the young man opposite.

No wonder the staircase doors are open, and someone is watching. After slandering in his heart, Chu Tianqi hurriedly replied: "Yes." ”

"Who are you looking for?" asked the internal security officer.

Chu Tianqi said with a smile: "I...... I'm looking for a provincial leader. ”

"This floor is full of provincial leaders, who are you looking for?" Although he said politely, the internal security's eyes were much sharper, "Please show the meeting slip." ”

Chu Tianqi stiffened his head and took out the piece of paper.

took the interview slip, glanced at it, and said, "I'm sorry, this interview slip can't go to this floor." ”

"Yes, I thought I could go into a building. Chu Tianqi pretended to be confused, "Look, I have a meeting form, but I just filled out one less, so let me go." ”

"No, please. As he spoke, the internal security officer pointed to the elevator, "You can go downstairs from the elevator." ”

"Do you think you can be accommodating?" Chu Tianqi grinded his mouth.

"No, it's not negotiable. The internal security officer's voice was cold, and his tone was unquestionable, "Please leave immediately." ”

Looking at the other party's expression, Chu Tianqi knew that this internal security guard would definitely perform his duties seriously, which was expected by Chu Tianqi. The reason why he took the stairs at that time was because he thought that if there was no one waiting in the corridor, in case he could take advantage of a loophole, now it seems that he is completely clever. Smiling at the other party, Chu Tianqi did not walk towards the elevator, but retreated from the fire door just now and went to the stairs.

What should I do if the internal security guards don't let me in? What should I do if I go back? I came overnight to find someone on the seventh floor, and the report materials on the twelfth floor were just a pretense for being able to enter the provincial government building normally and not attract the attention of some people. If you don't see that person, what should you do with your own business? A showdown with that person is the only feasible way Chu Tianqi feels at the moment.

But the internal security guard will definitely not be accommodating, and he can't force himself to break in, right? This is not a matter of breaking in at all, it will only mess things up and add new charges. And just a few of his own * skills, it is not omnipotent.

What should I do? What should I do? Asking himself again, Chu Tianqi's brain was running rapidly. Soon, he made a decision, since he couldn't go in directly, he would talk to the other party first. If you can get permission to talk directly face-to-face, that's better, and if the other person can't shirk it, try to make it clear during the air conversation, and try to get the other person to give you a satisfactory answer.

Thinking of this, Chu Tianqi took out his mobile phone, called up a fixed number with an area code in the phone book, paused slightly, and pressed the thumb of his right hand on the dial-out button.

"Dut...... Beep ......" ringback tones came from the mobile phone, one after another, and after a few sounds, a standard female voice came out of the earpiece, "The number you dialed is not answered for the time being, please dial again later".

Didn't. Isn't it there? Or is it deliberate? Leave him alone, keep fighting. Thinking of this, Chu Tianqi reddialed the number again. It was still the same ringback tone, and after a few sounds, the standard female voice came out.

In this way, I called three times, but no one answered.

After asking himself, Chu Tianqi decided to dial one last time, if no one answered, then think of another way.

The fourth time it was dialed out again, and this time the ringback tone became a short "beep" sound, and Chu Tianqi couldn't help but rejoice in his heart: The phone is busy, which means that there is someone in the house. So, he hung up the phone and waited for the other party to end the call.

After about five minutes, Chu Tianqi dialed that number for the fifth time, this time it was not a busy tone, it was a normal ringtone, but only until the female voice with no emotion* color came out, and no one answered the phone.

Holding the mobile phone, Chu Tianqi was puzzled: Why didn't anyone answer? Soon he figured out the reason: when he dialed, maybe another person was also dialing the number at the same time, which would also be busy. Of course, in addition to this reason, there is another reason that is also highly likely, that is, the other party knows this number and deliberately does not answer.

Whether you deliberately don't pick it up, or if you're not in the house, it's a hassle. Although his heart was half cold, Chu Tianqi still dialed that number again.

The sixth time is still the same, and it still ends with the female voice.

The last time, just the last time, making up his mind, Chu Tianqi once again redialed it.

"Dut...... ...... beep "The ringback tone sounded again, once, twice, three times, just when Chu Tianqi thought that the female voice would appear immediately, just when he was about to hang up, a voice came out of the earpiece: "Which one?"

It's not the female voice, it's the man's voice, and the content is different. Chu Tianqi was immediately overjoyed, and said politely: "Hello, may I ask who you are ......?"

"Who are you?" the other party interrupted Chu Tianqi's words in time, "What's the matter?"

Hearing that it was the person he was looking for, Chu Tianqi couldn't help but be very excited, and replied: "I am Chu Tianqi, member of the Standing Committee of the Chengkang Municipal Party Committee and deputy mayor, and I have a ...... with you."

A "pop" sounded, followed by a short "beep" sound.

was thinking about the wording, and was about to say as respectful and polite as possible, but unexpectedly such a voice came out, and the other party hung up. When he heard his identity, the other party ended the call, which meant obviously, and he didn't want to see himself and didn't bother to pay attention to himself. The other party's attitude was expected, but hanging up the phone in this way still made Chu Tianqi feel very uncomfortable. The most important thing is that the other party can not see him, but he must see the other party, otherwise he is likely to be in trouble.

After asking himself again, Chu Tianqi made a decision: the other party was actually in the house, this kind of opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he must carry forward the cheeky spirit of perseverance and continue to call until the phone is connected.

Thinking that he was about to do it, Chu Tianqi redial the number again.

Again,

Twice,

Three times,

It's the same process every time, first with a few long "beeps" and then the standard reply from the female voice.

Listening to the voice on the mobile phone, Chu Tianqi suddenly felt a trace of happiness, and said in his heart: Didn't you not answer? Then I will trouble you to death.

When he called for the fourth time, Chu Tianqi's pleasure disappeared and turned into frustration, because there was no sound in the phone, and it was obvious that the other party had unplugged the phone line.

What should I do? What should I do? Asking himself twice in a row, Chu Tianqi didn't give an answer, and suddenly turned into an ant on a hot pot, constantly going back and forth to the steps under his feet.

……

Just when Chu Tianqi was scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously, in an office on the seventh floor of the provincial government, a very official-looking man was drinking tea comfortably while looking at the telephone on the table. The man had a look of disdain on his face, and his nose snorted: "Clever, not on the stage." ”
