Chapter 211 Enough
Chapter 211 Enough
The city bureau leader paced back and forth anxiously, pointing his finger at Zheng Zhiguo's nose and yelling, "Zheng Zhiguo, you're interfering with the higher-level public security organs' handling of the case. I can arrest you!"
Higher-level authorities have more power.
However, when it comes to handling cases, the county bureau still has independent authority, and higher authorities cannot interfere with the county bureau's handling of cases.
In this matter, Zheng Zhiguo is really not afraid of him.
These leaders are nothing more than using their official power to oppress people.
Zheng Zhiguo glanced at the municipal bureau leader and said, "I've already said, no one is allowed to take him away."
If you're so capable, then go ahead and arrest me.
Today, I, Zheng Zhiguo, am going to fight this to the death.
I want to see whether the power of certain officials is more powerful, or the law of the country is more powerful!
Upon hearing this, the two new police officers from the station—the same two officers who were discovered monitoring Zhou Dongliang and were hit by a car—walked out of the guesthouse.
The two young men were eager to make a name for themselves.
Having performed poorly last time, he bravely stood up this time to support his bureau chief, Zheng Zhiguo.
"What are you doing out here? Go back." Zheng Zhiguo whispered a reprimand.
"We will stand with Director Zheng through thick and thin!"
"That's right, we're handling the case normally. Let's see who dares to forcibly take away our witnesses. If you're so capable, arrest us all."
"Yes, arrest them all!"
The two young men stared wide-eyed, with a touch of comicality, yet their sincerity made the city leaders feel ashamed of themselves.
Four police cars arrived outside, and all the officers from the Xiapu Police Station quickly got out of their vehicles.
Another person came out of the guesthouse. It was Xiao Yanfang, wearing a uniform, her police badge reflecting a dazzling light in the sunlight.
She walked calmly out of the guesthouse, simultaneously unholstering her gun and drawing her sidearm: "Who's trying to take a witness hostage? Who!"
Xiao Yanfang pretended to be confused and shouted loudly.
"Who's trying to kidnap a witness?" The city police chief looked speechless. "We're investigating a case too. This is just a normal investigation."
Xiao Yanfang said coldly, "That's a hostage situation. Step back, or I'll fire a shot."
Zheng Zhiguo shrank back in fright; this woman…
That's awesome!
They really dare to do things when it matters.
When the city police saw this woman, they realized she wasn't joking. If a gunshot were fired, the matter would get out of control and might even reach the provincial authorities.
Thinking about it, the future is still the most important thing.
The city bureau personnel were forced into the car and quickly left.
Zheng Zhiguo and Xiao Yanfang both breathed a sigh of relief, their faces showing signs of exhaustion—they had just forced themselves to muster all their courage, and now they were tired.
The two young officers, however, remained spirited—they had just been genuinely eager to make a name for themselves; these two were like newborn calves unafraid of tigers.
"Go back, everyone. Keep an eye on that woman. We'll get through these few days." Zheng Zhiguo waved for everyone to return to their posts.
Xiao Yanfang stopped and asked in a low voice, "Director Zheng, should we report what just happened to County Chief Chen?"
"If those people come again, and bring the city police chief, we might not be able to handle it!"
Zheng Zhiguo shook his head decisively: "No need."
The county magistrate has his own responsibilities.
This is a matter for our public security department.
"Director Xiao, since County Chief Chen uses us, we must think about how to share his burdens and solve his problems."
Xiao Yanfang still seemed somewhat worried.
Zheng Zhiguo gave her a reassuring look, gently patted Xiao Suo's shoulder, and forced a smile, saying, "Calm down, don't panic."
Once you get through this hurdle, the road ahead will be smooth sailing.
"Comrade Xiao, our luck has arrived! Hahaha!"
The conversation finally put Xiao Yanfang at ease, and the tension on her face disappeared. She smiled and said, "Thank you for your comfort, Director Zheng... I've met good people. Meeting you and County Chief Chen is my good fortune."
I've chosen the right person to follow.
Xiao Yanfang went back to continue working on the case.
Little did they know, Zheng Zhiguo's words just now were also spoken under duress.
He didn't know how things would ultimately turn out.
Neither Xiao Zhikai, the municipal party secretary, nor his uncle Zheng Jiasheng knew the true extent of Dawei's background; they only knew Xu Aiguo.
But at this point, it's time to go all in.
He cannot waver even slightly.
If a leader shows signs of despondency under immense pressure, then those below will inevitably collapse.
Director Zheng returned to his secondhand Santana, put down the chair, and lay down.
He planned to stay here until he got Xiuxiu's statement.
His wife hadn't actually gone far; she was hiding under a tree in the distance, watching quietly.
Watching Zheng Zhiguo handle the case under such immense pressure, she suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
She almost screamed in fright when Xiao Yanfang pulled out the gun.
The phone rang, and when Zheng Zhiguo's wife saw it was her cousin calling, she picked up the phone and answered it.
Traffic police officer Qiu Yuanzhang was arrested, and the court has already held a trial. He was convicted of multiple crimes, including pyramid schemes, bigamy, framing, and embezzlement, and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
Qiu Yuanzhang requested an appeal, but it was of little significance.
This is the last case Yao Zhan will handle during his tenure, and he won't let anything go wrong with it.
As a result, the position of traffic police squadron leader became vacant.
People in Zhou Xiangzhang's camp have been busy dealing with Dawei lately, and no one has been able to take over the position. Zheng Zhiguo took advantage of this and got his wife's cousin promoted.
My cousin called at this time to thank Zheng Zhiguo's wife.
The two chatted on the phone for a few minutes, and then Zheng Zhiguo's wife went home.
His cousin brought a lot of things, including fruit, wine, cigarettes, and a whole bunch of other things.
These won't cost much.
A jewelry box sits on the dining table.
"What's this?" Zheng Zhiguo's wife opened it and saw that it was a gold bracelet, weighing at least 25 grams.
"A gift for my sister."
"It's not a holiday, why give such an expensive gift? It's inappropriate."
"Well, your wedding anniversary is coming up soon, so I'm sending it two days early. I won't be able to come over in a couple of days, hehe..."
"This won't do, it's too expensive. Don't involve your brother-in-law." Zheng Zhiguo's wife was well-educated and knew what was going on.
"I understand, don't worry, it's okay."
What's wrong with a younger brother giving his older sister a bracelet?
How much is that?
I know in my heart that I got to this position because of my sister and brother-in-law's help.
I will never forget it.
If you don't accept it, you won't feel secure in your official position.
Don't worry about accepting it, sister. I heard that your husband has already pawned his car.
He's having such a hard time, I can't possibly help him with everything, can I?
He couldn't give her money, so he decided to find another way: give his sister a bracelet.
"Don't worry, I understand the rules."
No matter what happens to me in the future, it won't involve my sister and brother-in-law. What kind of person would I be then?
I'm leaving.
My cousin didn't say anything more, got up and went out.
Zheng Zhiguo's wife walked him a few steps: "You've just come up here, so don't be too ostentatious about things."
"Know."
"Go."
……
Inside Zhou Xiangzhang's office.
The full-time deputy secretary of the municipal party committee called Zhou Xiangzhang and Dawei together.
Dawei took out a notebook, ready to take notes; Zhou Xiangzhang, sitting next to him, silently smoked a cigarette.
The full-time deputy secretary opposite the two spoke slowly with a stern face.
"I was assigned by the municipal party committee to come and talk to you."
I heard...
"It seems the county party committee and county government in Yuanshan County don't get along very well."
