Li Rui saw that this young man was familiar with him, but he could hear that his laughter was from the heart, and there was no hint of flattery in it, and he couldn't be annoyed by him, but he liked it very much, and said with a smile: "Okay, the matter is urgent, then hurry up and get in the car." ”

Shen Yuanzhu asked Li Rui to sit in the leadership seat in the rear right, and he sat behind the young man to accompany him. After the young man waited for the two to close the door, he skillfully drove the police car out of the municipal party committee building.

Shen Yuanzhu saw that he was driving too fast, and said, "Xiao Zhang, don't drive too fast." If we want to save people, we must first ensure our own personal safety. Xiao Zhang smiled and said: "Haha, Director Shen, haven't you ever ridden in my car? You can rest assured, I guarantee that you and Director Li will not be injured by a single hair, and you have to feel the courage of drag racing." ”

Shen Yuanzhu smiled helplessly, and said to Li Rui next to him: "Director Li, Xiao Zhang has always been a free and casual person, don't mind." Li Rui secretly thought that he could be so free and loose in the Municipal Public Security Bureau, even if this Xiao Zhang was just a driver, he was probably not an ordinary person, how dare he look down on him, and said with a smile: "Don't mind, I see that Xiao Zhang's car drives very well, and he is much better than me." ”

Xiao Zhang said with a smile: "Hey, Director Li still trusts me." Director Shen, you see, your own family doesn't trust your own family, and you don't let Director Li laugh at you. Shen Yuanzhu was not angry, and said: "Director Li is the first time to meet you to save face, don't be complacent, you kid." ”

Li Rui said: "Director Shen, our grades are about the same, so you don't want yours, that's too polite." Shen Yuanzhu smiled: "Okay." Oh, by the way, what happened at the Xixian Coal Mine, I didn't understand, I was wondering. ”

Li Rui told the disappearance of the two CCTV reporters.

Xiao Zhang said: "If you want me to say, those two reporters are just full of food, and they don't go to investigate those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and they go around investigating these trivial things." What if they checked, and the dead miners could come back alive?"

Shen Yuanzhu reprimanded: "Xiao Zhang, drive your car well and express your opinions less." Xiao Zhang smiled: "Yes, the director has given an order, then I have to shut up." Shen Yuanzhu explained: "Didn't you listen to what Director Li just said, those two reporters just found out that there was bribery from the relevant departments of Xi County, so they came to investigate." Why isn't it investigating corrupt officials and corrupt officials?" Xiao Zhang didn't speak when he heard this, and it seemed that he really didn't want to open his mouth anymore.

Shen Yuanzhu smiled and asked Li Rui: "Director Li, the city bureau has already set off, let's not go to meet with them, just catch up." Li Rui said: "Okay." He asked again, "Director Shen, are you also in the search team?" Shen Yuanzhu smiled and shook his head.

Xiao Zhang suddenly interjected: "Director Li, our Director Shen was specially arranged by Director Feng to take care of you, haha." Shen Yuanzhu was embarrassed when he heard this, and said angrily: "Didn't you shut up? Why are you talking so much? Are you afraid that I will sell you as a dumb person?"

Li Rui was flattered and said, "Director Shen, is it really fake?" Shen Yuanzhu said: "Of course it's not true, don't listen to his nonsense." Director Feng also asked me to go to the front line to see what was going on. ”

Xiao Zhang smiled: "That's not what you said when you called me." Shen Yuanzhu reprimanded: "Drive your car!"

Xiao Zhang glanced back at Li Rui and said, "Director Li, you give a comment, who is talking nonsense, hehe." ”

Of course, Li Rui knew that the director of the office of the Municipal Public Security Bureau was actually the leader of the bureau, and the type of work of the secretary was much the same, under normal circumstances, no matter what happened, he would not send people from the office out, thinking of Feng Weidong's good intentions, he sighed: "I said, how can this kind of thing send you, the director of the office." Alas, Director Feng is so polite, where do I need to take care of it?" Shen Yuanzhu said curtly: "Of course you don't need to take care of it in life, but in the process of searching for those two reporters, you will inevitably deal with people from all walks of life, but Xi County is all mountainous areas, and the people are fierce, so it is not easy to provoke." What Director Feng means is that sending me by your side and having me, a policeman, take care of you can save you a lot of trouble. ”

Li Rui thought about it, felt that it made a lot of sense, and said in his heart that Feng Weidong was very careful, if it weren't for his evil behavior of picking up ashes, this person would be able to make a good deal, and said: "But it will delay your rest time because of this." Shen Yuanzhu smiled: "It's okay, I'm tired of staying in the office all day, come out for a walk, and treat it as a tour." ”

Xi County is located in the southwest of Shuanghe County, two hours' drive from Qingyang city, and it will take longer to get there in the evening. It's not easy to pass the time for such a long time.

Li Rui chatted with Shen Yuanzhu for a while, but he was a little hungry, so he didn't speak again.

Shen Yuanzhu called Ji Fei, the top person in charge and one of the deputy directors of the search team sent by the city bureau, to learn about the progress of the search team, and after putting down his mobile phone, he said to Xiao Zhang: "Find a place to eat first." After speaking, he said to Li Rui: "Director Li, what Director Ji means is that people want to look for it, but we can't look for it hungry, so we have dinner first, and then rush over to search overnight." Li Rui also made sense when he heard it, and it didn't matter if he thought about delaying for a while, and said, "Okay, fill your stomach first." ”

Xiao Zhang drove to the nearest town store, and stopped at the door of a restaurant on the side of the road that seemed to be doing brisk business. The three of them went in and found a clean table, sat down, and ordered four dishes and one soup to eat and drink.

After eating, Li Rui wanted to settle the bill, but was robbed by Xiao Zhang.

Shen Yuanzhu said: "Director Li, don't be polite, whoever ties the knot is the same." ”

Her meaning of "all the same" is naturally that no matter who knots, they will be reimbursed. After all, this is official business, and no one is stupid enough to pay for it with their own wallets.

The three of them got into the car and continued on their way.

When he drove to Xi County, Shen Yuanzhu contacted Ji Fei again. Ji Fei told her that the search team had joined the search team sent by the Xi County Public Security Bureau, and they led them to the Heiyaogou Coal Mine in the mountainous area first. As for Li Rui's special squad, the Xi County Government Office has already sent people to wait in the Xi County Government compound, and when they arrive, they will immediately take them to the mountainous area.

Shen Yuanzhu told Li Rui about the situation, and Xiao Zhang said: "Director Shen, is this the rhythm of the overnight search?" Shen Yuanzhu said: "It depends on the situation." ”

Li Rui saw her looking at herself, and knew that what she meant by "looking at the situation" was actually looking at her own situation, and she followed the search team to search for her, so she also accompanied her, and when she found a place to sleep, she also slept. Then he said: "Director Shen, after you get to the coal mine, you and Xiao Zhang can find a place to rest, and I'll follow the search team to take a look." Shen Yuanzhu hurriedly said: "Then how can I do it? The order I received this time is that I will follow you wherever you go, how can you work and sleep with me?" Li Rui persuaded: "I don't do any work, so many police comrades and armed police officers and soldiers, no more than me, no less, no less, I am mainly responsible for understanding the latest situation and reporting to Secretary Song at any time." Shen Yuanzhu said resolutely: "That's not good, as long as you don't sleep, I won't sleep either, you have to sleep together." ”

Xiao Zhang suddenly burst out laughing when he heard it, and his smile was a little evil.

Shen Yuanzhu said curiously: "What are you laughing at? What's so ridiculous about this?" Xiao Zhang shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay." Shen Yuanzhu thought about it, and then understood, he made fun of his inappropriate words, glared at him fiercely from the rearview mirror, and said, "When you get to the destination, you can sleep by yourself, I will accompany Director Li." Xiao Zhang said: "I know, you two sleep together, well, okay, then I'll sleep first." Shen Yuanzhu was really angry, so he reached over and twisted his arm. Xiao Zhang laughed in pain and said, "Director Shen, don't rely on me, you said this first." ”

Li Rui looked at this Xiao Zhang, and said in his heart Why is this kid so tired, but Shen Yuanzhu has no way to take him, could it be that this kid is a relative of a leader in the Municipal Public Security Bureau?

The three of them rushed to the Xi County Government, it was already a quarter past nine o'clock in the evening, and after meeting with the people from the government office, the two cars rushed to Longkou Town, where the Heiyaogou Coal Mine is located.

Li Rui called Song Chaoyang and told him that he had arrived in Xi County and was on his way to the coal mine where the two reporters had disappeared. Song Chaoyang said that he knew and asked him to pay attention to safety.

Li Rui realized at this time, and before he called Lu Qingman, he dialed one for her, and it was not good to tell her more in front of Shen Yuanzhu, only saying that he was dealing with an urgent matter, and he had no time to chat, so he would talk about it tomorrow. Lu Qingman understood him very well and asked him to be busy first.

It took another hour to arrive at the Heiyaogou Coal Mine in Longkou Town, which is located in the Taihang Mountains. Rushing to the scene, Li Rui was completely dumbfounded.

Li Rui originally thought that the Heiyaogou Coal Mine was just a coal mine, but who knew that it was a huge town market, with high-rise buildings, neon flashes, and busy traffic, compared with the night view of Xixian County when he came, it was not much better.

According to the deputy director of the county government office, this Heiyaogou coal mine was one of the largest mines in Qingyang City for a long time after the 80s of the last century, and there were tens of thousands of workers in the mine at its peak. As a result, a village and town slowly sprang up around the huge human resources of the mine. Nowadays, tens of thousands of people live here in Heiyaogou Village, and there are hotels, hotels, markets, shopping malls, and everything, which is more prosperous than Longkou Town.

Li Rui gasped when he heard this, such a big town store, trying to find two lost reporters, isn't it looking for a needle in a haystack?

After Shen Yuanzhu contacted Ji Fei, the person in charge of the search team, Li Rui and others rushed to the compound of the Heiyaogou Village Committee. Ji Fei has set up a temporary search team headquarters here, and has jointly deployed operations with the search team dispatched by the Municipal Armed Police Detachment. On the Xi County side, Liu Xiping, the county magistrate, personally led the team, the deputy county magistrate in charge of coal mines and safety supervision, the director of the county government office, the director of the county safety supervision bureau, and the director of the county public security bureau also assigned tasks here with their subordinates to cooperate with the city search team to complete various tasks.
