When Ye Ming heard the sentence "Fighting a snake and not dying", he was shocked, staring at Team Leader Zou, and already understood what he meant.

However, he didn't want to leave the impression that Team Leader Zou was too smart, so he pretended to be puzzled and asked: "Team Leader Zou, I still don't quite understand what you mean, can you give me a detailed explanation, and point out the maze?" ”

Team Leader Zou examined him a little disbelievingly, and saw that his face was full of confusion, as if he really didn't understand the meaning of his words, so he had to patiently explain: "Xiao Ye, I know that you are an honest and kind young man, who is soft and not hard. I estimate that Li Li must have said a lot of good things to you just now, and he must have lowered his posture and asked you for help. But you have to understand one thing: the reason why Li Li was investigated and punished this time is precisely because of the contradiction between him and you. The reason why he is begging you now is because he can't fight you. So, he's subservient to you now, it's just a tactic on his part. From what I know about Li Li, he is a very resentful person, and he will take revenge. Now in order to save himself, he can do whatever it takes to save himself, regardless of his self-esteem. However, once he regains power, he will also take revenge on you by any means necessary. That's what I mean when I say, 'Fight a snake and don't die'. ”

Seeing that Ye Ming still looked contemplative, Team Leader Zou further explained: "As far as I know: Li Li's problem is very serious, not only in the process of tax reduction and exemption approval, pre-tax deduction approval and audit and finalization many times, but also the style of life is extremely erosive, and there are four or five second wives he supports. He has such a serious problem, if you go to intercede for him, it is estimated that Secretary Li of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection will not be very happy. Even if you have a good relationship with Secretary Li, this matter involves a matter of principle, which will definitely affect your impression in Secretary Li's mind. In that case, you're just not worth it. ”

When Ye Ming heard his last words, he was shocked in his heart: yes, why didn't he think of this? Secretary Li is a leader who is very principled and jealous, if he relents for a while and agrees to say good things to Li Li, what will he think? Do you think that you are an immature person who does not distinguish between right and wrong? Even, would he think that he had received any benefit from Li Li, so he pleaded for him in turn?

Thinking of this, he felt a little chill in his back, and said to Team Leader Zou sincerely: "Team Leader Zou, thank you for reminding me, I will consider this matter carefully." ”

After coming out of the office of the head of the discipline inspection team, Ye Ming walked downstairs while thinking about the purpose and intention of Team Leader Zou talking to him today: It seems that the contradiction between Team Leader Zou and Li Li is very deep. Although the people in the bureau couldn't see it at ordinary times, at the critical moment, Team Leader Zou did not hesitate to wave a knife at Li Li and stabbed him in the heart.

And he is the deadly knife in the hand of Team Leader Zou......

This officialdom is so complicated, calm as water on the surface, but the dark tide is turbulent underneath......

When he was about to get off work in the afternoon, Li Li suddenly called Ye Ming and said that he was invited to eat at the seafood city by the river, and emphasized that it was just the two of them, and no outsiders were present.

Ye Ming replied and said, "Director Li, I'm sorry, I've already made an appointment with a friend for dinner today." ”

Li Li was silent for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Xiao Ye, did you call Secretary Li in the afternoon?" ”

Ye Ming heard that his words were full of hope, and his heart began to feel a little unbearable, thought about it, and said, "Not yet." Director Li, let me tell you the truth: I'm a little embarrassed to make this call. ”

Li Li let out an "oh" in disappointment and said, "I understand." Some things are really unclear on the phone, and you need to face to face before you can speak. That's it, brother, starting tomorrow, I will give you a few days off, please go to the provincial capital to take a turn, and personally talk to Secretary Li about me, it is estimated that the effect will be better. ”

Ye Ming felt that he had promised him at the beginning, but now if he didn't want to help him, he really couldn't open this mouth, so he gave a vague "um" and quickly hung up the phone.

By this time, the people in the office building were almost gone. Ye Ming cleaned up his desk and was about to leave the office, but saw Li Li suddenly standing at the door.

After confirming that Ye Ming was the only one in the office, Li Li walked in quickly, closed the door behind him with a "snap", and then took out a bank card from his briefcase, and said while stuffing it into Ye Ming's hand: "Brother, there are 500,000 yuan in this card, and the password is six ones." If you go to the provincial capital to do something for me this time, it will definitely cost a lot of money. You can use this money first, if it is less, you can call me again, and I will call you at any time...... Brother, as long as you can get me through this, I won't care how much you spend! ”

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, looked at the bank card, and a mocking smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Director Li, what do you mean by this?" As the saying goes: there is no cold disease in the heart, and the courage to eat watermelon; Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night! Didn't you tell me this morning that you just received a little red envelope gift for the New Year? So what are you afraid of? Although the red envelope gift money cannot be collected, if the amount is not large, it is only a disciplinary problem at best, so there is no need to be so generous! You are 500,000 yuan now, and you said that if you have less, you can ask for it again, I am really scared by you! ”

Li Li saw that he didn't want a card, so he was a little anxious and said, "Brother, don't get me wrong. You are also clear: in today's society, what do you do without money? It's not a big problem, but it's a bit of a problem. The 500,000 yuan for you to hold is just a means of being prepared, and it does not prove how serious my problem is. Besides, if you do something for me, you can't have to advance money yourself! ”

Ye Ming knew that he couldn't tell him, so he pushed the card in front of him and said, "Director Li, I can't ask for this money." If you really feel that you don't have a big problem, I suggest that you go to the Discipline Inspection Commission or the procuratorate to make it clear, and in that case, you can strive for leniency. This is what you told me when I was first shuanggui, and I will return it to you now, I hope you will do it yourself! ”

As he spoke, regardless of Li Li's face getting paler and paler, he turned around and walked out of the office.

A little after eight o'clock the next morning, several people wearing suits and wearing the badges of the Discipline Inspection Commission and the Procuratorate on their chests suddenly came to the bureau and took Li Li, who had just walked to the door of the director's office, away.

At about 11 o'clock in the evening of the same day, a police car suddenly drove from the family courtyard of the local taxation bureau and drove straight to the third building of the family building to stop, and then several prosecutors escorted Li Li into his home, showed Li Li and his wife the "Criminal Detention Certificate" and "Search Warrant", and began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to collect evidence of Li Li's crime.

While searching, a prosecutor ordered Li Li to untie his shoelaces and belts and throw them away, and handcuffed him.
