Room 302 on the third floor of the Qinglong County Guest House, outside, on the tall willow trees, there was endless screaming, which made people even more irritable in this sultry early summer.

In room 302, Gao Zhikai paced slowly, he had been restricted in his personal freedom, and the county party committee explained his problem to the Xiangshang-level public security organ, and now, the county party committee team should have a heated discussion on whether to transfer him to justice for "dereliction of duty".

Two Leninist cadres, both cadres of the county supervision bureau, were sitting at a table at the door playing chess.

The table, which was originally placed next to the windowsill, was moved to the door by the two of them, in addition to entertainment, in case Gao Zhikai ran away.

Guarding cadres under house arrest 24 hours a day, not beating or scolding, and delivering food by special personnel, it is not easy to go out and walk around in normal times, which is really a boring chore.

The two of them play chess every day, and they are tired of playing.

There was a gentle knock on the door outside, and Lao Chen, a slightly taller discipline inspection cadre, stood up and looked out from the cat's eye.

Lao Chen opened the door, and Gao Zhikai, who was focusing on the door, turned his head with a slightly disappointed look in his eyes.

"Gao Ju, who is waiting to see you? Or, who are you counting on to get you out?" The short discipline inspection cadre kept staring at Gao Zhikai's movements, and asked with a smile at this time.

He had been in contact with Gao Zhikai, and he had also been trained by Gao Zhikai, at this time feng shui took turns, Gao Zhikai became a toothless tiger, although Yu Wei is still there, but a little sneer is inevitable.

Gao Zhikai didn't speak and sat back on the edge of the bed.

Lao Chen glared at the short cadre, after all, there is no conclusion to Gao Zhikai's matter now, and it is not yet known how the county committee will deal with him, and now he has offended him, if he continues to do his public security director unscathed, and settle accounts in the future, it will be not a small trouble.

"High Bureau, it's time to eat." Lao Chen sent an iron lunch box to Gao Zhikai with a little respect.

At this time, the standing committee of the county party committee, which was discussing Li Suying's case, was still in full swing.

In addition to the Standing Committee of the Qinglong County Party Committee, the meeting only invited Qu Zhini, chairman of the CPPCC, to attend the meeting.

At present, the Standing Committee of the Qinglong County Party Committee is composed of eight members, but Li Yufeng, minister of the Ministry of People's Armed Forces, took leave and was absent from the meeting, because only seven members of the Standing Committee, Ma Weiguo, Lu Zheng, Qin Jiahao, Wang Baogang, Wang Zhensheng, Hao Baishan, and Wang Nibang, attended today's meeting.

After nearly a month of investigation, a joint investigation team composed of discipline inspection, political and legal departments, basically determined that Li Suying was indeed over-controlled by police officers in the process of violently resisting the law, and that Gao Zhikai, director of the county public security bureau, and Dong Weizhong, deputy chief of the criminal investigation section of the county bureau, concealed the truth, issued a false autopsy certificate, violated procedures, and attempted to cover up the truth by incinerating Li Suying's body, which had violated party discipline.

Today's Standing Committee is discussing how to deal with the aftermath of this case and to hold those responsible accountable.

The members of the Standing Committee reached a consensus on the handling of the instructor led by Guo Zhuang and the two police officers, and the director Guo Honghong was given a major administrative demerit and a serious warning within the party, and the instructor in charge of discipline was dismissed. Police Sergeant Li Mohai was dismissed from public office, and Wang Maoba, a member of the joint defense team, was dismissed, and at the same time ordered the county bureau to conduct a supplementary investigation of the case to investigate what responsibilities the two should bear in the process of law enforcement, and whether they need to be transferred to the procuratorate for prosecution. Zhu Daying, chairman of the Matouying Township Women's Federation, and other family planning cadres were given punishments such as demerits.

However, serious differences arose among members of the Standing Committee on how to deal with Gao Zhikai and Dong Weizhong, with some members insisting on handing them over to justice, while others held that although they had violated party discipline, their starting point was Haode, and they should understand their hardships and be dealt with lightly.

Just when Wang Baogang and Wang Zhensheng were having a heated debate, Ma Weiguo slowly put down the teapot and said, "Let me tell me my opinion?"

The red-faced quarrel between the two came to an end.

Ma Weiguo sighed, "Comrade Gao Zhikai was brought over by me from Guangning, and I also have to bear some responsibility for his mistakes." The transfer of Gao Zhikai from the position of director of the county public security bureau seems to be recognized by everyone, and the city bureau basically has such an attitude. ”

As he spoke, Ma Weiguo sighed again: "He was originally a talented and talented cadre, but because he was too anxious and wanted to show himself, he made such a thing, people, how can there be perfection, I hope he can remember this lesson in the future, for him, the current experience is painful enough, and I also believe that he will take this as a warning in the future and never make similar mistakes again." ”

"As for transferring him to justice and prosecuting him for dereliction of duty? I think it's too serious, and our party's policy is to punish the former and the latter, and treat the sick and save people! Comrades who have made mistakes, we should not be beaten to death with a stick, but we must see the essence through the phenomenon, Gao Zhikai, in the final analysis, the position in this case is also for fear of discrediting the party's image, not just for our own interests! In essence, this comrade is haode. ”

Ma Weiguo took a sip of tea and continued: "And Comrade Zhikai has always been an outstanding cadre of the public security front, and he has registered in the provincial public security department. The opinion of this leader is that Gao Zhikai should be dismissed, transferred to the provincial department, and demoted. I believe that this kind of treatment should satisfy Li Suying's family. ”

What is the opinion of the main leaders of the provincial department? Standing Committee members, look at me, I look at you, they are all thinking about something in their hearts.

"I agree with Secretary Wei's opinion." Wang Zhensheng quickly expressed his attitude, and glanced at Wang Baogang with a smile, obviously, this contest, with the transmission of the opinions of the provincial department leader, Zuihou still ended with his victory.

Ma Weiguo looked at Lu Zheng, during this time, Lu Zheng did not seem to care about the investigation of the investigation team, but began to plan the construction of the new urban area of the county, he was ready to plan a new urban area in the north of the county, a street planned in the early stage, to mobilize the county's major banks, financial institutions to move over as the main force of urban construction, and the new long street, called "Financial Street".

Lu Zheng made a speech for more than an hour at the symposium on the planning of the new urban area, explaining the significance of the construction of the new urban area to stimulate the economy of Qinglong.

Lu Zheng once lamented that the poor Qinglong needs investment too much to stimulate economic development, but this kind of investment cannot be large and empty, first of all, it is necessary to do a good job in the infrastructure construction of the city, just like the Southern Special Economic Zone, without the infrastructure that did not hesitate to run a fiscal deficit in the first five years, how can there be more flowering and vigorous development now?

During this time, Lu Zheng didn't seem to have asked about the investigation team, but Ma Weiguo believed that the investigation team's ups and downs could not escape his ears and eyes.

After glancing at Lu Zheng, who was smoking silently, Ma Weiguo coughed and said, "It seems that the comrades have no different opinions, so even if our resolution is formed, we will report it to the Municipal Bureau and the Municipal Party Committee." He turned his head to the clerk next to him and said, "You summarize this resolution, and I will revise it." ”

"I disagree!" Lu Zheng snuffed out the cigarette butt and slowly sat upright.

Ma Weiguo was slightly stunned and looked at Lu Zheng, this was the first time since Lu Zheng came to Qinglong that he clearly opposed his opinion at a meeting of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee.

Most of the Standing Committee members were stunned, and immediately, they were all keenly aware that the contest between the county magistrate and the secretary, or in other words, the first collision between the cadres of the Lu faction and the cadres of the Ma faction, just like that, broke out suddenly!

Lu Zheng said slowly: "Gao Zhikai's situation is completely different from the situation of the police in Guozhuang, for example, Guo Honghong, the director of Guozhuang, according to the investigation report, did not know the cause of Li Suying's death and safety, and took active remedial measures afterwards. The two police officers, Li Haimo and Wang Maoba, in fact, I sympathize with them, I have an understanding of how difficult it is for grassroots police officers, they do the most tiring work, get the least salary, and they are the ones who directly face the consequences when something happens. Let's just say that in this case, if you think about it, they are also quite difficult. ”

But again, what is violent law enforcement? This is a typical case! And only by being in awe of the masses and respecting the masses from the bottom of your heart, can you calm down in the face of such an incident, you will not be irritable, and you will think of more ways to enforce the law. Therefore, the handling of them should play the role of warning those who come after them, but if legal responsibility is pursued, I hope that the sentencing will be appropriate, and the hearts of the grassroots cadres and police officers will not be cold. ”

After a pause, Lu Zheng took a sip of tea and said slowly: "But Gao Zhikai and Dong Weizhong!" The mistakes of the police and the people sent by Guo Zhuang are not of the same nature at all, although they are not responsible for causing death, but their behavior is worse than that of the police and the people who caused death by negligence! If we gently let such cadres go, where will the credibility of the party and the government be in the future?

"Comrades, it's not terrible to make mistakes! We can rely on the people's supervision to slowly correct the omissions in our work in the context of the new era. However, we dare not face our mistakes, cover up our mistakes, whitewash our peace, and even use even worse wrong behaviors to pay for the mistakes we made in front of us; in the long run, this will shake the prestige of our party and government among the masses of the people, and then affect the foundation of our ruling power! It will be terrible for us to abandon the trust of the masses of the people now, comrades! Will we wait until the future, when the voices of the party and the government are mentioned, and the masses of the people are mocking and sneering, will we make amends?!"

"Moreover, from a legal point of view, Gao Zhikai and Dong Weizhong's behavior at least constitutes dereliction of duty, and it is natural to send them to the judicial organs! Otherwise, where is the party discipline?! Where is the law of the land?!"

Speaking of zuihou, Lu Zheng's voice was violent, he knocked on the table hard, and spit out word by word, "Where is the law of the country!" At the same time, he knocked the table four times.

In the conference room, there was silence.

Lu Zheng looked at Ma Weiguo: "Which leader of the provincial department called?" You told him to find me! I'd like to see which leader is so confused! I don't know what to do!"

For a long time, the conference room was silent.

Wang Nibang's heart was agitated, at this moment, Secretary Ma Weiguo was completely different from the county magistrate Lu Zheng. At this moment, Secretary Ma Weiguo was more like a petty bureaucrat, while County Magistrate Lu Zheng showed the kind of politician who defied everything and swallowed it like a tiger.

Wang Baogang was even more dumbfounded, he never expected that under the dignified confrontation, Ma Weiguo and Lu Zheng were like a clown jumping off the beam.

At least, at this moment, the secretary of the county party committee, to all the Standing Committee members, is this feeling.

Lu Zheng took a few sips of tea, and his tone slowly softened, "I think, let's raise your hand to vote." If you agree to transfer Gao Zhikai to justice, please raise your hand. After speaking, the first one raised his hand: "I agree!"

Wang Baogang and Wang Nibang raised their hands one after another, "agree".

"I abstain." The Qin family lowered their heads, drank tea, and didn't look at Ma Weiguo's gaze.

"Agreed." Hao Baishan, head of the organization department, raised his hand.

Four votes agreed, one abstention, Ma Weiguo and Wang Zhensheng no longer had the need to vote, the clerk next to him looked at Ma Weiguo, after all, whether it was agreed or opposed, in the meeting of the Standing Committee of the county party committee, the opinions of the secretary of the county party committee must be recorded.

Ma Weiguo's face turned pale and stood up: "I'm a little uncomfortable." He turned around and left the venue

The next meeting, it goes without saying, will naturally be presided over by Lu Zheng.

Everyone didn't expect that the first time the county magistrate and the secretary had a hard wrist wrestling, Zuihou would be such a result.

Secretary Ma was punched hard by County Magistrate Lu like this, and he was knocked down! There is no way to fight back!

The process of this meeting soon spread among the middle-level cadres who were relatively well-informed in Qinglong, and the image of the young county magistrate as strong and powerful gradually took root in the hearts of these cadres.
