Rebirth of the Rising Sun

There was no call record, which meant Feng Sizhe had not received any call at all. It also meant that Feng Sizhe had already arranged everything. He did not go to Room 301 of the Lotus Hotel to answer the phone, but had this idea in mind beforehand. As soon as Bei Jinlong took out the communication list, everyone in the conference room felt a chill in their hearts.

But in fact, there is one person who can say with more certainty that Feng Sizhe was wronged, because he happened to be present when Feng Sizhe received the so-called report call. This person is Xia Xiang, the secretary of the Lianhua City Municipal Party Committee.

However, Xia Xiang did not bring up the matter directly at this time. He wanted to keep it in reserve for a more critical moment. "Well, isn't there a surveillance video? I think we should watch it first and then talk about it." Xia Xiang crossed out the topic and turned it to the video.

It seemed that Xia Xiang did not want to defend Feng Sizhe anymore, but wanted to see the contents of the videotape. This made Bei Jinlong very happy. He thought that Xia Xiang had nothing to say, so he immediately arranged for someone to turn on the video recorder in the conference room, and then played the scenes of Feng Sizhe, Chen Guangming and Fu Di in Room 301.

It was just a video recording, but there was no sound. Bei Jinlong explained that the city bureau's video equipment was not very complete at the time, and this video recording only had images but no sound. From the picture, one could not hear what the three people were saying, but one could clearly see that Fu Di opened the suitcase after meeting Feng Sizhe, and then the three people whispered something and prepared to go out, but were blocked by Bei Jinlong and others.

From the video alone, we can see evidence that Feng Sizhe accepted bribes. After seeing the money, he was ready to leave, which is also in line with the facts. For this reason, when this video was played, everyone present sighed, even the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission Chen Zhenghai and the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission Huang Lin were silent, they seemed to have determined in their hearts that Feng Sizhe had solicited bribes.

But Xia Xiang did have his own ideas. He could confirm that Feng Sizhe was framed, which could be proved by the sudden disappearance of the phone records. However, he could not confirm who wanted to do this to Feng Sizhe, so he was observing. If anyone wanted to take advantage of Feng Sizhe's misfortune, then this person would be highly suspicious.

While Xia Xiang was still observing everyone, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, Ruan Guiben, finally spoke. "Comrades, the facts are now before us. Although I don't want to admit this fact, and I also know that Comrade Feng Sizhe has indeed made great achievements in the economic development of Lianhua City, the facts are facts, and this cannot make up for his solicitation of bribes. Therefore, based on the facts, I think this matter should still be reported to the provincial party committee. We still have to fully respect the facts."

When Ruan Guiben said this, Bei Lianxiang, the secretary general of the municipal party committee, quickly agreed and said, "Yes, although I also regret what happened to Comrade Feng Sizhe, the facts are the facts. I agree to report this matter to the provincial party committee, and the provincial party committee will handle this matter with full authority."

After Bei Lianxiang finished speaking, there was a brief silence in the meeting room. The Discipline Inspection Committee Secretary Chen Zhenghai and the Political and Legal Committee Secretary Huang Lin were both silent. Although they also determined from the evidence that Feng Sizhe might have solicited bribes, they did not want to criticize Feng Sizhe at this time, because deep down in their hearts, they did not want Feng Sizhe to leave Lianhua City. After all, he was still a good cadre.

For example, Chen Zhenghai made some progress in the work of the Commission for Discipline Inspection because of Feng Sizhe's arrival. Some people have said before that the poverty of Lianhua City is inseparable from the problems of the cadres here. For this reason, some people questioned that he was incompetent as the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection and failed to catch the pests, which made the economic work of Lianhua City fall behind. Later, it was only after Feng Sizhe came that the Commission for Discipline Inspection investigated the case of Wang Xibo and Ni Dahong, and the work of the Commission for Discipline Inspection improved.

Then there is Comrade Huang Lin, the secretary of the Municipal Political and Legal Committee. He had always been oppressed by the Public Security Bureau Chief Bei Jinlong. But since Feng Sizhe arrested Bei Jinlong and handed him over to him, he clearly felt that Bei Jinlong's tone of voice towards him had improved, and he was finally no longer a secretary in appearance, and had his own certain power. If Feng Sizhe is taken away now, it is conceivable that Bei Jinhu's case will not be suppressed for long. From this, it can be inferred that he may return to the era of the secretary in appearance.

These two people are cadres who have benefited from Feng Sizhe's work in Lianhua City, so they don't want to do anything to Feng Sizhe. It can be said that they all have personal feelings. Speaking of personal feelings, Xia Xiang is the most typical representative.

As the Party Secretary of Lianhua City, no one wants Lianhua City to become richer than him. Xia Xiang is such a person. He has made many efforts to make Lianhua City rich during his tenure. However, he has tried hard and thought of various methods, but the effect has not been good. Until Feng Sizhe came to Lianhua City under the order of the organization, this scene finally changed. Lianhua City finally has its own roads and its own economic characteristics. Now it seems that Lianhua City has gradually walked out of poverty and is moving towards a prosperous and well-off road. Among them, Feng Sizhe's contribution is obviously very important.

At this time, he absolutely did not want to see Feng Sizhe leave Lianhua City, and he left with such a serious crime. He must create a good environment for the cadres who work hard. He cannot let those who work suffer while those who do not work are free. This is not acceptable. For this reason, he must have an attitude and self-examination on Feng Sizhe's matter.

"Well, I think there is not enough evidence for this matter, so my opinion is not to report it to the provincial party committee first, and let the municipal discipline inspection commission investigate first. Besides, Comrade Feng Sizhe cried out that he was wronged, so we have to give an explanation, right? And Comrades Chen Guangming and Fu Di, they haven't admitted it yet, so I think everything needs to be investigated again." Xia Xiang just saw that Ruan Guiben was one of the cadres who wanted Feng Sizhe to be removed from office, and he was a little confused. Although the relationship between these two comrades was not close, it was not a hindrance, so why did Ruan Guiben take on the role of adding insult to injury? What was going on? He really needed time to investigate and sort out the relationship.

Xia Xiang, as the municipal party secretary, expressed his attitude. Power is still very powerful. At least after he said that, Ruan Guiben and others stopped talking. They didn't want to offend Xia Xiang in this matter.

The temporary meeting was disbanded. According to Xia Xiang's request, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection began to investigate the matter. However, under Ruan Guiben's insistence, it was finally decided that the Municipal Public Security Bureau and the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection would handle the case together. After all, it was the Municipal Public Security Bureau that first intervened in this matter.

Chen Zhenghai, the secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, did not want to bear all the consequences of this matter, so he readily agreed. In fact, he did this only because he thought Feng Sizhe was hopeless, and the so-called investigation was just a process, and he did not want to become the executioner who strangled Feng Sizhe's future, so he agreed to work with the Municipal Bureau to handle the case.

. . . . . . . . . . . .

In the interrogation room of the Municipal Bureau, several policemen were interrogating Fu Di.

Fu Di sat on a cold bench. In front of him was a very high-wattage desk lamp. The light of the lamp shone directly on his face, making him feel very uncomfortable.

"Fu Di, you've seen it too. This is not a good place. If you know what's going on, just confess everything. Then you'll feel much better." A policeman with a wretched look looked at Fu Di and sneered.

"Recruit, what do you want me to recruit?" Fu Di asked pretending to be confused.

After he was taken to the police car and then to the police station, he had figured out what had happened. He understood that this time, someone wanted to frame Feng Sizhe, and he was unlucky to become a pawn. Think about the person who called him and claimed to be Chen Guangming's secretary. The voice was somewhat similar, but if you listen carefully, you can tell that it was not the same person. To be honest, he was careless at the time. Seeing that it was the phone on Chen Guangming's desk, and the other party claimed to have a cold, he believed it. Why didn't he use his brain to think about it? If he really wanted money from him, would he call? Sometimes the two of them had to meet several times a day because of work, so what couldn't be said on the phone? And the most fundamental point is, with Feng Sizhe's identity and status, would he be short of the 300,000 yuan and ask him for it? Anyone with a little bit of brains can analyze this.

After Fu Di figured everything out, he regretted it very much. He regretted that he had believed everything, which led to his current unfavorable situation, especially that he had caused Feng Sizhe and himself to suffer such treatment together.

Even if he figured it out, Fu Di would not admit the false facts. He knew that he was from the Great Northeast Company, and the backers of the Great Northeast Agricultural Trade Corporation were Tong Qing and Tian Liang. Once these two people knew what happened to him, they would definitely help him. Of course, the prerequisite is that he was wronged. If he couldn't stand the pressure now and said something nonsense about Feng Sizhe, then I'm sorry, it's very likely that no one would care about him anymore.
