Chapter 15: The Capital Conference
The conference room of the sub-bureau was still full of people, and it was still as smoky as before, except that there were a number of new faces.
At this time, the level of the people who can sit in the room has increased significantly. When the director of the hall came, the officials who were qualified to speak were of course vying to come and offer their courtesy.
After Zhou Shaosong received the news, he first shook his head, and then immediately took the case, scolding in his mouth: "Shameless! Then, let the secretary inform the director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau to organize the experts to set off quickly.
Director Shen of the Criminal Investigation Bureau knew that the matter was urgent, and it took only five minutes to lead the team downstairs. When they were about to get into the car, they found that Director Zhou's car had already driven out of the gate of the Provincial Police Department.
Director Shen's heart was as anxious as a fire, and he just shouted again and again: "Hurry, hurry, hurry up." ”
Along the way, the sirens never stopped, startling vehicles and pedestrians on the road to give way. Two groups of people, less than ten minutes apart, rushed to Seaside City.
In total, it took less than five hours to complete the journey that used to take five and a half hours. You can imagine how anxious Director Zhou was and how fast the car was driving.
Not only did Pi Leizhi not think about it, but all the police officers didn't think that Director Zhou of the Provincial Police Department would come so quickly. As soon as he received the news of Ren Xiaotian's assassination, the head of the hall rushed to Haibin City at the highest speed, regardless of the danger to his own life.
The outline on Director Zhou's face was extremely resolute. Between the eyebrows, three furrows faintly appeared, which made people feel very cold at a glance.
At this time, his gaze glanced over the faces of everyone in the conference room, and then asked in a cold voice, "Where is the director of the sub-bureau?" After the case happened, what was the head of the bureau busy with if he didn't solve the case? Is it a dead policeman, the chief feels very happy! ”
No wonder he was so angry, five hours after the case, there were no useful clues at all. This is easy to say, after all, the investigation of this case is not ordinary. The crime committed by a professional killer, if the case can be solved quickly, there is no need for the director of the hall to rush over in such a hurry.
The real reason for Director Zhou's anger was that Pi Leizhi, as the head of the first bureau, went to drink with the district chief on the grounds of reporting work.
Director Zhou's words were straight to the point, obviously accusing Pi Leizhi and asking him if he was happy about the death of his subordinates, but in fact, even District Chief Li of the city district scolded him. The people present were all top-notch, and the director of the Zhilu Dao Department was really angry.
After listening to it, everyone also felt a little relieved. The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the thing hurts it. Everyone is a police officer, of course, they will be interested in Li Zhenmin and Pi Leizhi's drinking. Feel a little cold in your teeth.
In the capital, the meeting in the Yi Nian Hall continues. The man who sat in the middle of the meeting was a man of about fifty years. His jet-black hair was neatly combed and meticulous. There is always a faint smile on the face, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.
His surname is Zhao, and he is just the director of the office of a certain department, but he represents the core of the highest leadership, so he deserves to sit in the position of host. He sat there and did not speak, just watched the meeting go on with a cold eye.
Zhou Bingxian is a handsome and energetic old man. The years have left many marks on his forehead, only in his squinted eyes, from time to time shine with the brilliance of wisdom, both keen and wise.
He knew that since it was his own motion, he could only explain the situation clearly first.
"Ahem, ahem." Zhou Lao cleared his throat and said, "The person who was assassinated, called Ren Xiaotian, is an ordinary policeman. At six o'clock this afternoon, while patrolling the streets, he was assassinated by a professional killer. What happened back then, I think everyone knows it. ”
Hearing the surname of the assassinated policeman Ren, and then mentioning the events of the year, of course everyone present knew it well, and some people nodded in agreement.
"Originally, we thought that the matter of the year had been settled. In order not to get involved in new grievances, we just let the child develop freely in a small place like the seaside, and so far we have not let him know the truth of the matter. ”
Zhou Lao's words caused many people to reminisce, and many people even sighed deeply.
"But I didn't think that to this day, there will still be people who want to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots. Since things have developed like this, no matter how much my old man can bear it, he can't swallow this breath. The proposal to convene this meeting is to seek justice for this hard-working child. ”
After saying such a long paragraph, Zhou Lao was also a little out of breath. Director Zhao hurriedly walked behind him and patted him on the back. An old man with silver hair next to him also hurriedly handed the teacup to Zhou Lao's mouth. After a while, Zhou Lao stopped breathing.
After listening to what Zhou Lao said, these people here are all top people, where can there be any reason that they don't understand. For a public case that year, the high-level people made a fuss for so long, and many people were involved.
originally thought that time had passed, people died and hatred disappeared, and there was no follow-up. But I didn't expect that 35 years later, someone would lead things out.
not only led it out, but also used the method of killing all of them to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots of the only grandson of the Ren family. It's tolerable, it's unbearable, it's no wonder that Zhou Lao is so angry.
'Smack', someone banged on the table. Then, an angry voice rang out.
"Who! Who is it? What kind of person is so bold! Dare to assassinate a police officer in broad daylight. Examine! Be sure to check it carefully! It doesn't matter who it is! They must all be severely punished! Old Zhou, mourning, mourning, you must take care of your body. Since someone dares to murder a police officer on duty, it must be taken very seriously. ”
After the speaker persuaded Zhou Lao, he turned to the host and said, "Director Zhao, let me make a suggestion, in this assassination case, the police department should immediately mobilize experts and form a joint task force to solve the case together with the police of the Jianghuai Provincial Department and the Haibin City Bureau. If you don't solve this case, you won't withdraw your troops.??"
No one expected that the first person to speak would be Sun Lao, Sun Yifu! Awesome! This old man Sun is indeed a master. Everyone here knew that Old Zhou's words were directed at him. But they acted as if nothing had happened, and asked for a special task force to be formed to investigate.
Everyone knows very well in their hearts that Old Man Sun is also the main person involved in the public case that year, which is an open secret. Now that the assassination has occurred, how can it not have anything to do with their Sun family?
However, everyone is a caring person, and no one will say anything, but they all look at Old Man Sun with a strange look.
Old man Sun also has his own ideas. Don't say that this kind of thing is not done by our Sun family, even if it is done, there is nothing, isn't it just the death of an ordinary policeman who has no roots and no climbing? This kind of meeting is tantamount to not being held, and it is still not going to be held at the worst.
This old man Zhou is also full of bookishness, after so many years, he has experienced so many rights and wrongs, ups and downs, and he is still dreaming of pursuing justice. Since this is the case, Sun Yifu is happy to stand up and sing with him.
Director Zhao, who presided over the meeting, still looked at everyone with unwavering eyes, and looked at the old man Sun with an indignant face.
He has known Old Man Sun for a long time, of course, he knows that the other party is a very scheming person, and he is very good at acting, and he really lives up to the nickname of 'Old Fox'. Don't look at him very excited now, in fact, he has no fear, maybe he laughed in his heart and his stomach hurts.
Of course, Director Zhao will not say this, but quietly watch everyone, waiting for everyone's speech.
He is not a core leader, and in terms of seniority, he is also the junior of these people here. Not only must you listen to the public, but you must also put on the appearance of a corporal who is polite and virtuous. Before making a decision, the word 'balance' should be taken into account.
Director Zhao is waiting for everyone's speech, and only when everyone is moving, can he seize the opportunity to find the best plan. It's just that everyone knows the powerful relationship between them, and others will not easily wade into this troubled water.
All these people here are pretending to drink tea, or smoking, or just watching coldly, and never squeak.
Seeing that no one answered for a while, Zhou Lao threw his glasses on the table, took a strong medicine, and said: "If such a big thing is not said after the most difficult time, hum, every family has children and grandchildren, don't blame others for a tooth for a tooth." ”
As soon as he said this, it was tantamount to publicly issuing a war letter. Don't think that the old man is just a weak scholar, and it is useless to be ruthless. If you think that way, you must be wrong to the bottom of the sea.
You must know that the elder who was related to Ren Xiaotian had many friends and subordinates who were kind-hearted back then. It's hard to imagine what would have been done after hearing this kind of news.
Sun Lao, who was originally watching a joke, also sat up straight. The expression on his face kept changing, and he didn't know what Lu Dao was thinking.
Hearing Zhou Lao speak like this, the venue suddenly felt like a pot was boiling, and the discussion suddenly sounded a lot. After getting to the worst, Director Zhao had to bang on the table to restore the order of the venue.
"Hmph, Elder Sun is right, your son is a deputy minister in the Ministry of Police, let him solve the case. Your Sun family's investigation of the case is an authentic kung fu handed down by the family. With your son on the horse, you will definitely be able to solve the case. You all say, isn't that the case? "Liu Lao is a soldier who has been fighting for half his life, and he stood up unevenly.
Who said that a soldier is a 'cannon'? Listen, what people say is narrow. If the surnamed Sun wants the police department to take action, isn't that tantamount to letting his son command the case? The thief shouted to catch the thief, can such a case be solved?
"Old Liu, what do you mean by that? If the police are assassinated and the police department is not allowed to solve the case, who should be allowed to solve the case? Director Zhao, what I said is selfless, how can you misinterpret my good intentions like this. Old man Sun regretted a little at this time, he shouldn't be in the limelight and become such a prominent eaves. But on the surface, he still showed that he had suffered a lot of grievances.
"Solve the case? I think it's a dream. Don't take everyone for a fool, who is the murderer, everyone here knows very well. And yes, since you want to solve the case, you will also take out the things of the year and shake them off to see what is going on. Liu Lao didn't give in at all, and directly poked his words clearly.
