Seeing that Xin Lie had made several people submissive, Jing Shishu gave an explanation and turned around to go to the bathroom.

Yu Kongyuan, who was observing on the other side, got up and walked towards the bathroom at the same time.

Shi Liuqi saw him, but didn't take it to heart. He just muttered that he was having fun when he left.

In the bathroom, Jing Shishu heard the chatter of several women as soon as she entered, and she unconsciously slowed down.

"Huo Baichuan is so courageous. One person embezzled 50 million, why didn't he die?"

"Oh my God, is it true? Fifty million, how can he have so much money to steal?"

"Gerry State receives relief funds every year, with hundreds of millions allocated."

"No wonder Huo Chuyue usually wears such nice clothes and has a lot of famous brands. I knew it was not simple. Is the director so rich? She dares to spend so much money."

"It's good to be a high-ranking official. I can get enough for a lifetime. It's not like us, a small official in the family, neither big nor small, working like a cow or a horse."

"Then Huo Baichuan has been arrested——"

The conversation suddenly disappeared, Jing Shishu looked up, and a woman without makeup came out of the bathroom. Her eyes were red, as if she had cried.

After seeing her, the women who were originally talking looked embarrassed and hurried out of the bathroom with unnatural expressions.

Jing Shishu continued to walk inside and glanced at the other side. The woman who came out lowered her head and passed by her.

Huo Baichuan, Director of the Civil Affairs Bureau, relief funds generally arrive directly from Zhongzhou to Grid Prefecture and are directly handed over to the Civil Affairs Bureau for processing and distribution.

His corruption was expected, but the result was too simple and logical.

Jing Shishu went through the appearance of the woman just now in her mind.

Huo Chuyue, Huo Baichuan's only daughter, she should know something.

After leaving the bathroom, Jing Shishu saw Yu Kongyuan waiting outside the door.

"You are not Yan Wu." His tone was affirmative.

Jing Shishu smiled and just replied "I am" without explaining too much before leaving.

Yu Kongyuan wanted to reach out and hold her, but he didn't touch her.

“Did you come to Gerry State for the dole?”

Yu Kongyuan pursed his lips. He wanted to know whether his anonymous letter was sent to Zhongzhou. Didn't even one of the sixteen letters go to Zhongzhou?

But why...if it doesn't work, why give them hope.

Jing Shishu turned her back to him, paused for a moment, and continued walking forward.

She heard the person behind her ask again: "Can you get to the bottom of it? Just treat it like you are doing a good deed."

Yu Kongyuan didn't get her answer, so Jing Shishu left without looking back.

She didn't come here for the relief money, she just wanted to leave Zhongzhou because this could give Xin Pingwei a chance.

Yu Kongyuan stared at Jing Shishu's back and clasped his hands.

She is obviously not Yan Wu, and she cannot be Yan Wu.

He loosened his hands and returned to his cold demeanor.

……

Back in the hall, Jing Shishu saw the woman she had seen in the toilet standing in front of Yan Chang and Xin Lie.

"Huo Chuyue, I told you, there is irrefutable evidence of your father's corruption." Yan Chang said earnestly.

There was nothing he could do. There were all the witnesses and material evidence. If Huo Baichuan was not dealt with, his position as governor would be over.

Huo Chuyue's eyes were red and she bowed deeply. She said, "I know that my father has committed a crime. I don't ask the governor to let him go. I only hope that the governor can find the real culprit."

Jing Shishu walked to Xin Lie and observed the people on the field calmly. Pan Wenxiu next to her had a pitiful look on her face, while Bao Fanghai lowered his head.

With Xin Lie watching from the side, regardless of whether Yan Chang was sincere or not, he had to agree to continue the investigation on the surface.

"Of course, I will never shield anyone. It was me who led the development of Gerry State. This is also my hard work."

Yan Chang coaxed Huo Chuyue away with a few words.

He Zhuocheng, who was always paying attention here, glanced at Jing Shishu and followed Huo Chuyue away.

Here, Pan Wenxiu said with a smile: "Huo Baichuan embezzled 50 million in relief funds. This is an unchangeable fact. The governor has done his best for the Huo family."

Yan Chang waved his hand, "There is no such thing as trying your best. You have worked under me for many years. After all, you have some feelings. If anything happens to any of you, I will be very sad."

This group of officials all followed Yan Chang to develop Geli Prefecture from villages to villages.

But now, I don’t know how many people are taking the right path.

Xin Lie didn't interrupt.

Everyone will say that when it comes to situations, interests, ideals, and ambitions are very important, but it is emotions that are the least important in the military and political circles.

Former colleagues may also be doing evil things that are unknown to the public.

...

Huo Chuyue walked to the steps outside the hotel in despair. Her father was arrested, and she didn't know who else she could turn to.

Embezzling 50 million in relief funds was enough to put Huo Baichuan in jail.

"Miss Huo, wait a moment."

Huo Chuyue turned around, and it was He Zhuocheng who was chasing him.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is He Zhuocheng. I'm from Zhongzhou. If Miss Huo really wants to find out about the relief fund, she must cooperate with our investigation."

Huo Chuyue wiped her tears and was a little confused, "You are not from the military? Can you still manage relief funds?"

He Zhuocheng smiled and said, "We can't control it, but someone can."

……

In the hotel, Yan Chang and Xin Lie were giving their final speeches at the banquet.

Sun Pu suddenly rushed to Jing Shishu's side with a bright smile on his face.

Jing Shishu asked knowingly: "What's wrong? You look very happy."

Sun Pu pulled his tie very proudly and said, "Sister Shu, someone talked to me."

The only strange thing is that the girl always likes to talk about villages in the city, and secretly asks if there is a special department in Zhongzhou that manages relief funds. A girl likes to know about national affairs, but it doesn't matter, it's not important.

Jing Shishu raised her eyebrows, "So?"

"So it means I'm very attractive. I just stood there and all eyes were on me."

Sun Pu saw Jing Shishu's calm face and the expression on her face that you don't understand, "Forget it, Sister Shu, people like you won't understand mortals like us. This is the excitement of being discovered with low-key charm. It's very touching. of."

"Okay, so you want to elope with her?"

Although Jing Shishu's words were shocking, Sun Pu was still able to pick up the words.

"Let's get along with her again. Although she has a good taste, I also have to see what her personality is like."

"Then congratulations."

Sun Pu was visibly happy, "Thank you, Sister Shu. I knew that the people in Zhongzhou were not discerning. Once I arrived in Grizhou, I couldn't hide the charm. Although the place was a bit small, the people were pretty good, except for the very beginning. That little brat."

Jing Shishu smiled and said nothing. She turned around and saw Xu Lin, who was also happy not far away. She looked at Jing Shishu with admiration and blew a kiss to her.

If you move your eyes a little further to the side, you can see Yan Hui, whose face is livid with anger.

After half an hour, the banquet finally ended, and Yan Chang and others personally sent Jing Shishu and Xin Lie to the car.

Everyone left one after another, while Jing Shishu and others turned around to join He Zhuocheng.
