After getting off the highway, it was already noon, people sat in the car, couldn't feel the heat outside, found a hotel in the city center to stay, in order to prevent accidents, and made a photocopy of the notepad, together with the film of the photo, to the uncle for safekeeping, let him go to the neighbor's hotel to stay, and then told Zhou Fumin the phone number of the hotel room.

It wasn't until '96 that mobile phones started roaming calls between cities, and at this time, Big Brother was useless in a different place.

In 94, Xu Xueping was the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and secretary of the political and legal committee, and retired at the end of 2,000 years.

The phone call was delayed, and although the room was not suddenly kicked open and a large number of plainclothes poured in, it was anxious to wait in the hotel.

Zhang Zhixing was always at ease with his wife and did not dare to take the initiative to call his wife's unit. It wasn't until six o'clock in the evening that Liang Gezhen called, and it was Zhou Fuming who told her the phone number of the hotel room.

At noon, Liang Gezhen was directly called to the Xicheng Hotel at the Letters and Visits Bureau to be investigated by the provincial inspection team, and then to the Municipal Bureau for investigation, and his home had already been searched. Liang Gezhen did not go home, and the search of her home was notified when she was in the city bureau. It was Zhou Fuming who called to inquire, and the city bureau did not mandate the detention for 24 hours, and she is now living at a colleague's house.

Zhang Ke watched his father put down the phone, thinking that Tang Xueqian's house should have been searched, and it is estimated that Tang Xueqian and his wife are now explaining the matter of 370,000 family savings in Xicheng Hotel. I don't know what happened to Tang Jing, the beautiful face came to mind, Zhang Ke was very worried, thinking that it would be okay to let his father and uncle come to the provincial capital, and he would stay in Haizhou, at least he could take care of Tang Jing, I really don't know how she is now.

It wasn't until seven o'clock that Zhou Fuming turned on the phone: "Secretary Xu's house has had something happen recently, and I just contacted him, Secretary Xu may not have a good impression of the cadres in Haizhou, you can go directly to Secretary Xu's house to explain the problem clearly..."

Zhang Ke didn't know what Zhou Fuming's words were still hiding, thinking that Xu Xueping might be more strict with the officials and cadres in Haizhou, and in his impression, Xu Xueping seemed to rarely go to Haizhou, and he didn't take it to heart.

Zhang Ke and his father out of the hotel, stopped a taxi, went straight to the south of the city of the new plum garden, it was a hot summer, the plum trees have no appearance, the branches in the moon shadow swaying, but there is a bit of charm, the new plum garden is the provincial party committee and the provincial government senior officials of the residential area, Zhang Ke and his father waited at the door post for a while, out of a secretary look like a young man, they were taken in.

The sleeve of the man's short-sleeved shirt was pinned with white threads, and Zhang Ke wondered in his heart: Who in Xu Xueping's family died? Seeing that the man had an indifferent expression on his face, he felt that he was better not to talk too much.

The night is hazy, I can't see how deep the new plum garden is, after passing a few villas, they are very quiet, and the wrought iron fence is planted with rosaceae shrubs inside and out, growing very luxuriantly, blocking the eyes of continuing to look inside.

The young man who looked like a secretary entered Xu Xueping's house, passed through the courtyard full of flowers and plants, and waited directly in the living room. Xu Xueping is very tall, about sixty years old, with some age spots on his face, thick lips, high cheekbones, deep eyes, and a very serious expression, which puts a lot of pressure on others.

Zhang Ke noticed that Xu Xueping's cloth shoes were sewn with small pieces of linen on his feet, and he caught up with the dead people in his family to annoy him?

"Secretary Xu ......" Zhang Zhixing owes his body.

"Zhou Fuming called me and said that you have materials about Tang Xueqian's case," Xu Xueping's voice was very deep, giving people a very cold feeling, "The province sent elites from the procuratorate, courts, public security departments and other units to form an inspection team to Haizhou, just to find out the problem, why can't you directly hand over the materials to the inspection team?" ”

"The materials in our hands are not only about Mayor Tang, but also about Ding Xiangshan, Secretary of the Haizhou Municipal Party Committee......"

"What material ......" Xu Xueping's face softened, sat back on the sofa, and pointed to the sofa on the side to invite Zhang Zhixing and his son to sit.

Zhang Zhixing handed Xu Xueping the photo taken by Zhang Ke in front of the red brick villa and Zeng Jianhua's notepad.

Xu Xueping flipped through the photos, flipped through Zeng Jianhua's notepad, didn't look closely, leaned on the sofa and pondered for a while, and said: "Xinfeng Group may have some problems, aren't you also aware of it in the city, haven't you sent several inspection teams?" Whether the problem can be clarified or not, it will take time, and don't casually suspect the number one in the city. What do these photos illustrate? Even if you have any doubts, you can respond to the relevant departments, don't just poke at it casually, there must be procedures for any work......" Xu Xueping's tone made people can't help but sink in his heart, but he turned to the secretary-like young man and said, "Xiao Li, you call to see if there are any comrades from the provincial procuratorate who are on duty at night, and hand over the people and materials to the comrades of the procuratorate to deal with." ”

"Secretary Xu," Zhang Zhixing saw Xu Xueping ignoring him, and his heart was panicked and anxious, "I have worked with Mayor Tang for more than ten years, and I have a clear ...... about his personality."

Xu Xueping was very impatient to listen to him finish speaking, waved his hand, made a powerful and decisive gesture, and interrupted his words: "Whether Tang Xueqian made a mistake or not, it is not up to you to decide, the provincial inspection team is still investigating, and has not yet reached a conclusion, there are mistakes, national law is intolerable, there are no mistakes, and he will be treated fairly." Whether the province needs to directly intervene in the problem of Xinfeng Group needs time to discuss, and it is not something that you say will intervene...... Also, before Tang Xueqian presided over the restructuring of Xinfeng Group, Xinfeng Group was quite calm, and when he presided over the restructuring work, Xinfeng Group made things one after another, believe you, or believe in the eyes of the masses? If you want to say that Xu Xueping's completely formulaic bureaucratic tone in the front paragraph disappointed, the latter words show that he has a very bad impression of Tang Xueqian, which makes people's hearts sink to the bottom.

After Xu Xueping said these words, he got up and left, and the secretary-like person called, sat back there, and monitored Zhang Zhixing's father and son from leaving secretly.

Do you have to rely on bureaucratic procedures to investigate the entire case without a strong figure to promote the investigation of the whole case, and you can't get to the bottom of it until the year of the donkey?

Since Xu Xueping said that he would hand them over and the materials to the provincial procuratorate, he couldn't get out and go to other provincial leaders, Zhang Ke didn't know what went wrong, and he was in a dilemma now.

"Uncle Xiao Li, who in Secretary Xu's family died?" Zhang Ke remembered that Xu Xueping called this young man Xiao Li, and asked him sweetly.

Li Yijiang only regarded Zhang Zhixing and Zhang Ke as ordinary cadres who came to the province from below to respond to problems, and he had been greeted by Haizhou City Mayor Zhou Fuming before, but he was not particularly hostile, and when he saw Zhang Ke ask about himself, he replied to him: "Secretary Xu's son died in a car accident just a few days ago, and the car accident happened in your Haizhou City, how do Haizhou officials manage traffic!" ”

No wonder Xu Xueping has such a bad temper, it turned out that his son died in a car accident in Haizhou, Zhang Ke felt that Xu Xueping's stinky temper was not difficult to understand at this time, if he was given enough power, he was afraid that the government officials in Haizhou City would rush home with a fucking cover. Dad didn't hear anything about it in the city government, either because not many people in the city knew about it, or because Dad was completely isolated from his colleagues in the city hall.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Ke was a little helpless, so he could only sit there and wait for someone from the provincial procuratorate to come over, hoping that he could quickly find out the problem by going through the normal investigation procedures.

Zhang Ke sat on the sofa with his father, and the nanny came in with three cups of tea, and as soon as he put the teacup down, he heard the sound of a child crying upstairs, the cry was long and short, and then it was like a person rolling from the bed to the floor.

Xu Xueping jumped out of the study with flying steps, saw the nanny putting a teacup on the table, and said sternly: "Didn't I tell you, don't let Zhitong be alone in the room?" ”

The nanny looked embarrassed, which made Xu Xueping overwhelmed; Xu Xueping snorted coldly and shook his hand to go up the stairs.

"When guests come home, whether it is Haizhou or where, it is always appropriate to pour tea, I asked Xiao Zhou to pour tea for guests," a woman about fifty years old carried a little girl down the stairs and let the little girl's head rest on her shoulder, the woman said to the nanny, "Xiao Zhou, your Uncle Xu has a bad temper these days, don't take it to heart." ”

The little girl's face lay on the woman's shoulder and sobbed, her body trembled slightly, Xu Xueping did not refute, reached out and took the little girl from the woman's arms, and the cold voice just now immediately became soft and amiable: "Zhitong, come, let grandpa hold you......"

When the little girl left the woman's arms, her face turned to Zhang Ke's side.
