Chapter 971: Chapter 927 Official Business Conducted Officially Chapter 971: Chapter 927 Official Business Conducted Officially Next to him, Zhang Zhaoqian, the director of the Hongcheng City Public Security Bureau, was also covered in sweat. If he had known earlier, he should have called the chief of the Yuandong District Public Security Bureau over, which could have taken so heat off him. At least, he wouldn’t have been the primary person responsible.
Chen Le’s face was gloomy at this mont. As the saying goes, “When the lord is anxious, the vassal is disgraced”, and isn’t it exactly tis like this? As Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee and also the Party Committee Secretary and Director of the Public Security Departnt, such an incident occurred within his jurisdiction. It was a great irony, signifying his incompetence as the Director and how his subordinates had brought trouble upon him.
“What audacity! Since when did our venerable law enforcent agencies beco the tools of certain individuals? And to even set up a private court. Captain Chang, arrest these scum who disregard the national law this instant. They must be dealt with severely,” Chen Le’s tone was very stern, and his deanor extrely serious.
Next to him, Yao Dingguo’s facial expression twitched, feeling awkward. What Chen Le said was completely acceptable. The public security system is subject to dual jurisdiction. Both the municipal committee and the provincial departnt can manage it. Moreover, now, the current situation was laid out right in front of them.
Chang Yi’s face hardened, and with a wave of his hand, the inspectors following him charged forward and kicked open the door of the interrogation room. Right at that mont, Liu Guichun from the police station happened to be standing at the door; caught off guard, he was pushed to the ground by the force.
Liu Guichun hadn’t grasped the situation yet. As he scrambled up, he cursed: “Motherf—” But before he could finish, he saw several inspectors in police uniforms standing at the door, the word “inspector” strikingly visible on their white helts. Chen Le turned to look at Zhang Zhaoqian and said in a deep voice, “Director Zhang, these are the soldiers under Hongcheng City Public Security Bureau. Very good, indeed.”
Xu Hongzhuan also stepped forward, relieved to see Nie Zhenbang unhard—if anything had happened to the provincial party committee’s top leader here, even if it were just a minor injury, it would be a major incident. The provincial committee and leaders at all levels in the province would inevitably have so thoughts.
“Secretary, are you all right?” Xu Hongzhuan asked cautiously.
Nie Zhenbang, at this mont, looked solemn, standing inside the interrogation room, flanked by his bodyguards, Dai and Li Chunshan. It was these two who had protected him just now.
Of course, if it really ca down to a fight, most likely none of these individuals would be a match for Nie Zhenbang. However, due to matters of status and position, Nie Zhenbang wouldn’t resort to physical confrontation unless absolutely necessary—it was a matter of principle. It wouldn’t do for an official of his stature to engage in fights like a young hothead. Wouldn’t that provide an excuse for others to attack him?
Nie Zhenbang’s gaze was sharp as he scanned everyone, which made Yao Dingguo, the secretary of the Hongcheng City Municipal Committee, feel a bit uneasy.
Nie Zhenbang said gravely, “I won’t die. From the beginning to the end, I have always believed that this is a place led by the Party, that Hongjiang Province is under the leadership of the Party.”
Xu Hongzhuan understood very well at this mont, Secretary Nie was seizing the opportunity to make a point, not directed at himself, but rather at Yuandong District, and mainly, at Hongcheng City.
Yao Dingguo also understood the implications of the words. He stepped forward, smiling awkwardly, and said, “It is our fault that Secretary Nie has been put through this. Please rest assured, we will thoroughly investigate the matter in Yuandong District and offer an explanation and a satisfactory answer to Secretary Nie.”
Nie Zhenbang furrowed his brow and waved his hand, “Comrade Yao Dingguo, you’re overstating it. I have to correct you—I have not been mistreated. Nor do I need any explanations or answers. The most important aspect of this issue is the corruption of police discipline and the abuse of power by so leaders for personal gain, which has allowed family mbers to run amok. Ultimately, this falls upon the public security system. Secretary Chen, the provincial committee takes this very seriously, and the Political and Legal Affairs Committee must also take decisive action to investigate the roots and see just how many wrongdoers and harmful elents have infiltrated our police force. This matter will be fully handled by the Political and Legal Affairs Committee; report directly to .”
Nie Zhenbang did not accept Yao Dingguo’s suggestion. The matter was not yet suitable for escalation. Starting with a reform of the police force to open the breakthrough and subsequently bringing down Ding Zijian and his son was the proper approach. If it started with the Hongcheng City Municipal Committee, the first thing Yao Dingguo would do is issue a shuanggui order against Ding Zijian’s father. Then, Nie Zhenbang would be in a ssy situation, whether there was a real issue or not.
If there were those with ulterior motives, rumors would say that the provincial party committee’s top leader had no tolerance, exploiting the situation to retaliate and suppress comrades at the grassroots level. Human nature is unpredictable. Nie Zhenbang was well aware of the tale of “Three n make a tiger.”
After a pause, Nie Zhenbang said to Chen Le, “This ti, Ding Zijian is very problematic. A civilian without any power or position sohow managed to command national public officials. There must be an insider story here. I think the Political and Legal Affairs Committee should take this person into custody for a detailed investigation and review.”
This statent made Yao Dingguo sowhat displeased. From start to finish, Nie Zhenbang had never entered his “circle”. Instead, he took this opportunity to give Chen Le a chance to reorganize. With this opportunity, Chen Le could quickly sort out the entire provincial public security system, and even the political and legal system. Once Chen Le secures his position, it ans Nie Zhenbang’s position is also secure. It seems that his own and his relative Bao Gui’s strategies need to be adjusted. The young secretary isn’t as easy to deal with as he appears on the surface.
Chen Le nodded at this mont, not seeking anyone else’s opinion, and said in a deep voice, “Captain Chang, arrest this disgrace to the police force. It’s a sheer embarrassnt that an official would stoop to being a lackey for others, a sha. Such a person should be expelled from the police force to maintain its purity.”
These words instantly turned the faces of Liu Guichun and the two police officers ashen. Their reliance was on the uniforms they wore. Now, in an instant, they had lost this protection.
Liu Guichun felt the urge to kneel, but he didn’t dare to. His face looked even worse than if he were crying, the man completely numb, letting the inspector take him away.
Nie Zhenbang had always been an indifferent bystander to these events. Those who are pitiable must have a detestable side. When they oppressed the common people, they never thought such a day would co.
As Nie Zhenbang reached the doorway, he suddenly turned around and said to Chen Le, “Secretary Chen, let introduce this man to you, Mr. Li Chunshan. It was he who just struck Ding Zijian. In the interest of fairness, I suggest that the provincial departnt conducts a thorough investigation of this case. Additionally, the surveillance materials from Erald Elegance Pavilion should be promptly obtained. Everything must be done by the law, impartially, and any responsible parties must be held accountable, with the appropriate punishnts ted out.”
The purpose of Nie Zhenbang’s words was clear: he wanted to show a stance of impartiality, letting everyone see that Secretary Nie would even hand over his own friend. If anyone dared to cause trouble over this matter, it would be suicide.
At this mont, Li Chunshan was very cooperative, extending his hands as if ready to be handcuffed, and said, “I will definitely cooperate with the police investigation. I will personally assu any responsibility I should bear, and I will not shy away from any compensation I owe.”
Upon leaving the police station, Nie Zhenbang imdiately called An Na. After learning that An Na and her group were staying at the Provincial Committee Guesthouse, Nie Zhenbang turned to Xu Hongzhuan and asked, “Comrade Hongzhuan, shall we go together?”
Xu Hongzhuan was taken aback for a mont, then a delighted smile spread across his face. With Secretary Nie inviting him so publicly, it showed a preliminary recognition of his work and an initial expression of attitude towards him as a person.
anwhile, Yao Dingguo’s expression was rather gloomy as he looked at Hu Zaijun, the district chief of Yuandong District, both with very unpleasant faces.
This made Hu Zaijun shudder with apprehension. Even though he hadn’t been scolded from the mont he entered until the end, he hadn’t been able to say a word in front of the leaders, not even a phrase of self-criticism, indicating that Secretary Nie had no intention of regarding him, which also indirectly showed Nie’s dissatisfaction with the work in Yuandong District.
What Yao Dingguo was pondering was Nie Zhenbang’s watertight arrangents. He had heard of Nie Zhenbang’s prowess before, but now Yao had truly felt it firsthand. Although there hadn’t been any fierce outbursts, no investigations or hearings, and not even a word about strict discipline, it seed as though it was rely an internal matter of the police system. Nonetheless, Yao knew that the essence of the matter had not altered, and those destined for misfortune would still suffer it, such as the Yuandong District Public Security Bureau and the deputy district chief of Yuandong District, Ding Bowen.
It appeared that his relative might be in trouble this ti. With Secretary Nie’s strong performance, and considering the still influential and esteed Comrade Liu Yong in the province, with He Yusheng having Liu Yong’s firm endorsent, Wen Baogui’s dream of reaching the ministerial level was becoming increasingly distant.
After a pause, Yao Dingguo said in a deep voice, “Comrade Hu Zaijun, what an exemplary team you have led.”
With one sentence, Hu Zaijun felt a chill run through him, as he stood to attention, not daring to reply. Yao, who understood the balance of strictness and leniency, then softened the tone a bit – “Comrade Hu Zaijun, regarding the harmful elents in your district, you must pay great attention and deal with them severely. The Municipal Committee’s stance is to be strict, severe, and swift. Do you understand?”
Hu Zaijun found it sowhat difficult, as Ding Bowen’s distant relative Ding Bingkun was a standing committee deputy mayor of Hongcheng City. For his face, if not the monk’s.
After pondering for a mont, Hu Zaijun said, “Secretary Yao, regarding Deputy Mayor Ding…”
Before he could finish, Yao Dingguo raised his eyebrows and said sternly, “We must investigate this matter thoroughly, no matter who is involved or which cadre is concerned.” (
