Chapter 2596

~7 min read 1,317 words

Wang Wentian tilted his head toward Shen Weiming and said with a smile, "Weiming, if you want to enjoy yourself here for a couple more days, I can put in a good word for you. But Kai and I are getting out, so you'll have to stay and enjoy it by yourself."

Shen Weiming glared at Wang Wentian with dissatisfaction, stood up, patted his backside, and looked at the three men including Liu Yun: "I thought I'd have to wait two more days to get out. I didn't expect Deputy Director Huang to be in there eating cornmeal buns so soon."

After finishing, Shen Weiming shook his head with a look of regret. It was unclear whether he regretted that Huang Youmin was caught so quickly, leaving him with two fewer days to stay here, or if he regretted that Huang Youmin, a deputy director, hadn't been able to resist temptation and had ruined such a bright future.

The smile on Liu Yun's face was as bright as spring flowers, making the somewhat dim detention room seem much brighter. Although he had no direct connection to the detention of Wang Wentian and the other two, he was the branch director; if Zhou Andong really came to cause trouble unreasonably, he would have no choice but to listen and accept it, helpless.

After all, he wasn't as stupid as Huang Youmin. Even Sun Baocun had suffered such a huge loss at Zhou Andong's hands; for someone like Huang Youmin and those small-fry to think about stirring up trouble for Zhou Andong and trying to arm-wrestle with him was simply like the God of Longevity hanging himself—tired of living.

Therefore, Liu Yun was a relatively realistic person. Moreover, a seventh-rank official at the prime minister's gate—Wang Wentian and the other two were Zhou Andong's driver and bodyguards, and they absolutely could not be underestimated.

You have to know that for a leader, apart from their relatives, the driver and bodyguard are the people they trust and are closest to. Therefore, the moment the detention room door opened, a brilliant smile climbed onto Liu Yun's face.

As the saying goes, one does not strike a person who is smiling. As long as he kept a low profile, Wang Wentian and the others naturally wouldn't vent their anger on him, and Zhou Andong would have no reason to cause him trouble.

"Comrade Wang Wentian, hello!" Liu Yun reached out his hand from afar. He recognized Wang Wentian at a glance because the photos of the three of them were sitting in his desk drawer: "I am Liu Yun, Director of the Qinghe Branch."

Wang Wentian smiled and shook hands with Liu Yun: "Director Liu, I have long heard of you as the detective of the police world, the nemesis of criminals. Seeing you today, you are indeed heroic and extraordinary."

When these words came out, Wang Wentian didn't feel anything, but it made Liu Yun extremely embarrassed. Even the two comrades from the Bureau's Discipline Inspection and Supervision Division standing to the side couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths.

Lian Kai and Shen Weiming exchanged glances, both of them holding back their laughter. Detective of the police world? Nemesis of criminals? Captain, if you don't know how to compliment people, don't. Heroic and extraordinary? Look at Liu Yun's thin and scrawny build—which eye of yours sees him as heroic and extraordinary?

Liu Yun chuckled to cover his embarrassment: "Comrade Wang, here, I solemnly apologize to you, as well as to Comrade Shen and Comrade Lian. This incident has caused the three of you to suffer an injustice; this is entirely my dereliction of duty. I guarantee that such a thing will absolutely never happen again."

"Director Liu, you are too polite." Wang Wentian also kept a low profile, his tone very courteous: "This is not your fault at all, there is no need to apologize to me. After all, the world is so big, there are always places the sun doesn't reach, and naturally, some pests will breed. As long as the pests are cleaned up, it's fine."

"You are absolutely right." Liu Yun echoed, then changed the subject, pointing to the two people beside him: "These two are comrades from the Bureau's Discipline Inspection and Supervision Division. They have some situations they need to understand from you."

"Hello, Comrade Wang Wentian!" The chubby middle-aged man reached out his hand and said very politely: "My name is Feng Hanzhong. Huang Youmin has already confessed. I am here to understand in detail from you what happened at the gate of the Woolen Mill the morning before yesterday."

At this time, Liu Yun interjected: "Director Feng, let's not talk here. Let's go to my office."

"This is indeed not the place for a chat." A smile appeared on Feng Hanzhong's serious face: "Comrade Wang Wentian, Comrade Shen Weiming, Comrade Lian Kai, let's go. We'll bother Director Liu for a while and go to his office to chat."

Wang Wentian naturally wouldn't object, and the group went to Liu Yun's office.

"Come, come, everyone sit as you please." Liu Yun enthusiastically invited everyone to sit down, then personally poured tea for everyone.

Wang Wentian took the teacup, took a small sip, and without waiting for Feng Hanzhong to ask, he explained the matter in detail.

"Those thugs were simply too rampant; they were lawless. Not only were they armed with weapons, openly threatening and intimidating our factory staff, but they also wantonly destroyed our factory's important facilities, causing inestimable and huge losses to the factory."

Just after Wang Wentian finished his account, Shen Weiming took over, saying with an angry face: "Our factory director was extremely, extremely angry. At the time, he was so angry that he cursed loudly, asking how the social security in the capital could be so terrible?

The Woolen Mill is a key reform project of the city, and even the central leadership is watching it closely. Yet, for such a high-profile project, there were actually people who dared to incite those thugs to cause destruction.

Their actions were not just a simple expression of resistance to the Woolen Mill's reform work, but also a deep dissatisfaction with the reform and opening-up policy promoted by the country. They created chaos and deliberately stirred up trouble at the Woolen Mill; their true intention was not just to hinder the Woolen Mill's reform process, but in reality, they were challenging the great reform and opening-up policy."

Hearing Shen Weiming's words, not only Feng Hanzhong but even Liu Yun felt a chill all over. This big hat was being placed on them—it was simply too big; not many people could afford to wear it.

Sure enough, Liu Yun felt a sense of relief in his heart. People who could be Zhou Andong's driver and bodyguard couldn't be simple. Shen Weiming's words today would definitely be recorded as part of the conversation.

When the time came, whether it was the bureau leadership or the city leadership, they would definitely be very angry after seeing it. If Zhou Andong went to the city leadership to complain again, someone would definitely be in trouble.

After all, whether it was the city or the central government, they were all counting on Zhou Andong to save the Woolen Mill. If Zhou Andong suddenly threw in the towel and quit, the Woolen Mill would really be finished.

Moreover, he had also heard news that the bureau was studying a one-year "strike hard" campaign across the city. However, such a long-term campaign was a daunting task for both the bureau leadership and the vast number of grassroots police officers, whether in terms of the immense mental pressure or the high-intensity burden of daily work and tasks. Therefore, there were significant differences of opinion regarding the proposal for this campaign, and there was quite a bit of opposition.
