Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Don't say that, boss. Then what do you think we should do next?" Chen Hu was of course very happy to hear Feng Sizhe's praise.

"Well, you bring this person to Dahu County immediately, and I will send someone to pick you up then. Remember to ensure his safety, he is the top priority in this matter." Feng Sizhe thought about it. This Yan Yong is really an important witness. With him, it will not be difficult to implicate Wang Ming. The truth must not be revealed.

After hanging up the phone with Chen Hu, Feng Sizhe's face was already showing an excited expression. Looking at Jia Bin and others, they also felt that there was good news. Just when they were about to ask something, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and Luo Jinlong, Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee and Director of the Public Security Bureau, suddenly rushed in. "Leader, the matter has been investigated. It has been found that the combustible gas alarm was taken away by a lighter factory worker named Liu Si. We have now found it in his home and controlled him. What should we do next?"

"What flammable gas alarm?" Jia Bin and others didn't quite understand what Luo Jinlong said.

"Haha, this is an alarm device. With it, once there is a gas leak in the inflation workshop, it will alarm in advance. However, at the time of the accidental explosion, the flammable gas alarm was not connected to the plug and powered on. Secretary Luo and I discussed it and felt that this was a big suspicious point, so we wanted to see if we could find some clues. Not to mention that we actually caught the person." Feng Sizhe said excitedly. With Luo Jinlong's report and Chen Hu's supplement, he had a clear idea in his mind and had a general definition of the matter.

"Comrades, after coordinating information from multiple sources, we know that the explosion at the lighter factory was not a safety accident, nor was it an accidental incident. It was a deliberate act by someone. There is no clear evidence yet as to who did it, but I believe there will be evidence soon. So I suggest that the county discipline inspection commission and the county public security bureau jointly handle the case, because some cadres are involved in this matter, and the discipline inspection commission needs to step in to deal with these cadres." Feng Sizhe thought about it and decided to quickly set up a special task force to work together on the case and try to close the case before the other party is able to react. Only in this way can the losses be minimized.

"I agree." Wu Guangrong nodded.

"Okay. Then please ask Secretary Wu and Secretary Luo to act together, interrogate Liu Si suddenly, ask about his motives, and whoever is involved should be detained first. And Secretary Luo, you should immediately send someone to the intersection of the county town and Yongyang City to greet them. A key figure in this case will be brought in later. You should strictly control this person and interrogate him suddenly." After saying this, he turned to look at Jia Bin and Li Yige and said, "You two should immediately organize the comrades of the county people's congress. Later, when Secretary Wu and Secretary Luo have news, you should immediately convene an extraordinary meeting of the people's congress to vote on the qualifications and identities of some comrades. Remember one thing, if anyone asks, you should say that you are investigating Comrade He Wenbao's position as deputy county magistrate. Do you understand?"

Although the person Feng Sizhe actually wanted to capture was Wang Ming, he still had to confuse the enemy in order to avoid any accidents before the matter was finalized.

"Understood." The four people in the office nodded in unison and quickly turned around to do their work. When Feng Sizhe sat down on the office chair for the second time, the tense expression on his face relaxed a lot. He only had one sentence in his mind: evil will be punished, it's not that there is no retribution, it's just that the time has not come yet.

The arrest of Liu Si and the announcement by Deputy Secretary Jia and Minister Li of the Organization Department that county people's congress representatives would hold an emergency meeting to decide on the qualifications of Deputy County Magistrate He Wen were soon known to the entire county party committee compound and those who were concerned about the lighter factory explosion.

When Wang Ming heard the news, he couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Good, good catch, good catch."

Liu Si did it through Yan Yong's line, so as long as Yan Yong was not arrested, the matter would not be linked to him. Yan Yong also told him that as long as Liu Si was arrested, he would give out He Wenbao, saying that everything was done by He Wenbao. Yan Yong even gave Liu Si a sum of money to keep him quiet. At the same time, he also assured him that even if the incident happened, Liu Si would only be an accomplice and would be sentenced to a few years at most. When the storm died down, Yan Yong would go to the prison to get him out, and then the big thing would become a small thing.

Thinking about how he had done everything very carefully, and thinking about the promises made by Song Dawei and Wei Xiang to him that as long as He Wenbao was taken down, he would be appointed as a member of the county committee and deputy county magistrate, his heart began to beat fast. Feng Sizhe did not have many available people around him now, and there were even fewer people who were qualified to be members of the standing committee and deputy county magistrate. As long as He Wenbao fell, he would naturally become the first choice and become a member of the county committee standing committee.

Thinking about this series of clever plans, which had no loopholes, Wang Ming sat in a rocking chair at home humming a tune and fantasizing about his bright future.

Wang Hong, who also received the news, fainted in the guesthouse.

She had always thought that with a wise leader like Feng Sizhe, her husband would not be wrongly accused. However, looking at the current situation, it seems that this is no longer possible. The county people's congress is about to hold a meeting. If the meeting passes a resolution to remove He Wenbao as deputy county magistrate, even gods cannot save him. Thinking that her husband might be wrongly imprisoned, she felt a darkness in front of her eyes and fainted on the ground.

Fang Xianzhi, the county party secretary, finally rushed back from the city. When he heard what had happened in the county that day, he hurried into Feng Sizhe's office. Didn't he say that there was injustice at the time? But how long had it been since then? How could everything change? He really didn't understand.

In the interrogation room of Dahu County Public Security Bureau, Liu Si was sitting on a wooden chair, looking a little listless.

He hadn't thought that he would be traced back to the police so soon. He had to admire the police's ability to handle the case, but at the same time he began to doubt whether the words Yan Yong taught him could get away with it. But things had come to this point, and he had to do it whether he wanted to or not.

"Liu Si, tell me, why did you steal the flammable gas alarm and bring it back to your home?" Looking at Liu Si who was sitting below, Luo Jinlong asked loudly.

"I thought that thing was not destroyed and should still be valuable, so I took it back. I admit that I committed a crime. I should not secretly take things that belong to the public."

"Liu Si, I tell you, don't think that you can get away with a crime of theft. Let me ask you, how much do you have to do with the explosion in the inflatable workshop?" Seeing that Liu Si was trying to be cunning and cover up his crime with a minor one, Luo Jinlong snorted. With him around, he would not let the criminals succeed.

Liu Siyi raised his head and said, "Director Luo, I don't understand what you are saying. Let me tell you, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I..."

"Okay, Liu Si, stop quibbling. Let me ask you, what is this?" Seeing that Liu Si still wanted to deny it, Luo Jinlong took out a thick stack of RMB from the drawer and threw it on the table.

This stack of RMB must have at least tens of thousands of yuan. When Liu Si saw the money, a trace of painful regret flashed across his eyes. He hated himself for hiding the money Yan Yong gave him at home. Now that the cash was found, not only did he lose his life-saving money, but he also had to explain where the money came from.

Liu Si closed his eyes and thought about what Yan Yong had taught him. He gritted his teeth and said, "Government, I confess. This money is indeed mine. It was given to me by Deputy County Chief He Wenbao. He said that as long as I can detonate the gas filling room of the lighter factory, the money will be mine..."

Hearing Liu Si putting the blame on He Wenhe, Luo Jinlong slammed the table and asked loudly, "Enough! Liu Si, you said that it was Deputy County Chief He who asked you to do this, then I ask you, what good is there for him to do this? This is totally illogical, don't you know?"

"This... I don't know about this. Maybe some workers in the inflation workshop offended him, and he wants revenge." Liu Si muttered.

"Maybe? Revenge? Haha, what a joke. Do you think that if a deputy county magistrate really wants to deal with a worker, he needs this method, a method that can also bring him down? Your reasoning doesn't make sense at all." Luo Jinlong sneered. Does Liu Si think they are three-year-old children? This explanation can't fool even a fool. It's a pity that Liu Si can use him as an excuse and say it out loud.

"Then... then I really don't know. You can ask He Wenbao what happened in detail. I'm just doing my job and don't know the reason." Liu Si had made up his mind and was determined to hold on to He Wenbao. Only in this way would someone come to rescue him when he was in trouble. Otherwise, he would really have to spend the rest of his life in prison.

Liu Si's stubbornness was indeed unbearable. Luo Jinlong glanced at Wu Guangrong who was sitting next to him and listening, "Secretary Wu, look..."

"Liu Si is just an employee, not a cadre. Our Commission for Discipline Inspection cannot control him. You can do whatever you want to do with him. You don't need to ask for my opinion." Wu Guangrong turned a blind eye. He could guess what Luo Jinlong was going to do next. Sometimes, you have to use some means to deal with such stubborn criminals. Otherwise, they will not listen to reason with you.

"Okay!" Luo Jinlong nodded to Wu Guangrong. Then he turned sideways and looked at the police officers standing beside him. "You guys, find a way to make him tell the truth, but remember that there should be no external injuries on him."
