Chapter 734

Su Yang said: "I don't have any plans yet—haven't you seen they're already furious? Have they completely torn faces? Just now you didn't go up, and they directly acted like hooligans, openly starting to bargain, letting me release Bai Tie Jun, then they'd let me take Miss Liu away. I really can't believe this is the leadership of our County Party Committee and County Government!"

Hou Junlai said: "These people have always been like this; I just let you see their true faces. Now they'll definitely be cornered and lash out, so I think you still need to be careful. I've heard they plan to anonymously report you to the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission; if things go badly, the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission might take action against you."

Su Yang said: "I don't care how they deal with me, as long as they have the ability. Bai Tie Jun's side should have already confessed, so the harder they stir things up now, the more it shows they're at the end of their rope. To put it bluntly, their death knell has already rung. Just wait—it'll be over in a day or two."

Hou Junlai said: "Good, I also hope this matter ends as soon as possible, to bring these bastards to justice and give our Lieshan Xian Common People a clear sky. Faces have already been torn today; the Geng Family's second and third sons were indirectly because of you—one shot, one in rescue—I really worry they'll act rashly; otherwise, we could just stay at the office tonight."

Hou Junlai has worked here for these years, deeply knowing the treachery of human nature, so at every critical moment he tends to be more cautious and conservative.

But Su Yang doesn't care; Liu Zixuan's accident this time has already sped up their demise. If these people really dare to let the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission move against him, it's tantamount to stabbing themselves with a knife, so he actually wouldn't mind that. Besides, he's already figured it out—even if they drag him to the Discipline Inspection Commission, at most it'll only last until dawn.

Hou Junlai said: "Good, that's fine too, but if you have any problems just give me a call anytime. I'm also basically a local native, so I still know a few people."

Su Yang said: "No way, no way—if I didn't even have this bit of guts, I wouldn't have come to Lieshan Xian in the first place."

He was still temporarily staying at the guesthouse; after returning, he got a call from Zhou Ruohan, and it seems this matter still couldn't be hidden from Zhou Ruohan.

Zhou Ruohan said urgently: "You might as well just come back, after all it's only a matter of three to five days at most. Those malignant tumors and parasites that need to be eradicated have pretty much been taken care of."

"Besides, you're not in charge of political and legal affairs, nor are you a top leader in the county; staying there wouldn't really make much difference. Everything you should have done is already done—the people from the Audit Bureau have already gotten the electronic ledger, the spot check at the small commodities wholesale market should yield results in a day or two, and you've also put effort into the off-site review."

"As a Vice County Magistrate, being able to get this far is already no small feat; even if you come back now, absolutely no one will say anything about you."

"Even in the eyes of most people, you've already done excellently, and as a qualified cadre, while striving to the utmost for the cause of the Party and the people, you also need to safeguard your own safety; otherwise, what's the difference between you and a reckless fool?"

"There's a flight tomorrow morning; just come straight over—this is actually what Grandpa and Grandma meant. In their words, your mission is already accomplished; there's no need to risk yourself further."

Su Yang said: "I know that, but Liu Zixuan is still at the Public Security Bureau; although I've arranged for Sun Chengjun to look after her, I still can't help but worry."

"After all, I'm the one who dragged her into this; otherwise she wouldn't have nearly been harmed by this bunch of trash. So I must wait until she leaves completely safe; otherwise, if I just walk away now, how would others see me? Isn't that just deserting on the battlefield?"

Zhou Ruohan flared up: "Don't show off, don't think your physical strength is that great—against those people's despicable tactics it's useless! But I just heard from them that the Organization Department and the Discipline Inspection Commission are joining forces; estimates are that tonight they might even work through the night to supervise this case."

"Besides, Director Liu has already taken off from Jingcheng; he's coming to Lieshan Xian in person. Given his status today, the main leaders of Ganzhou Sheng will likely come out to greet him."

"Liu Zixuan will definitely be fine; at most three or four hours and he'll be released. As for those non-performing leaders in Lieshan Xian, I think their days are numbered. Since you're insisting like this, I won't say more—anyway, we must put our own safety first."

After Su Yang assured him repeatedly, Zhou Ruohan finally hung up.

In the past, Zhou Ruohan never used to be so long-winded, but now it's different—she basically has the mindset of a housewife, focusing wholeheartedly on two things: one, the baby in her belly; two, Su Yang. This is her daily routine, and it's hard not to see a huge change compared to before.

After Zhou Ruohan hung up, Fang Jingwen's call came in: "I'm saying you're unscrupulous—people who play the influence-peddling game basically just borrow others' fame, or else get someone to front for them. You directly dragged Liu Zixuan into trouble; how can you be so shameless?"

"How could you possibly live up to their trust in you? Fortunately this time you didn't let those beasts succeed, or else how would you explain yourself to Director Liu and Old Liu? Enough of this nonsense—I don't want to talk more."

"Bai Tie Jun's side has already been clarified; we've organized the relevant materials, and if necessary I'll submit them directly to the Provincial Discipline Inspection Commission. Now some leaders in the province who have considerable connections in Jingcheng already know about this matter; probably only a few remain unaware."

So I think at most it'll be tomorrow that Geng Miao will also find out what's happened. Even if Director Liu goes, given his status he'll only target those non-performing officials in Lieshan Xian and won't even glance at these people. So if things go badly, cleaning up this Messy Situation may fall to you; by then, knowing they're doomed, the Geng Miao bunch will definitely lash out in desperation—be sure to stay safe.

After saying that, she didn't wait for Su Yang to speak and hung up directly. Her tone wasn't very gentle, but it still conveyed some concern.

Su Yang knows better than anyone that after Liu Zixuan's accident, the whole matter has been advancing at breakneck speed, as if an accelerator had been added.

It's estimated that within a few days it can be completely resolved; Geng Miao and his gang will surely be driven to desperation and then take some crazy actions. So he also needs to make timely preparations; thinking of this, he flipped through his phone book, found a number, and dialed it.

The person on the other end answered quickly, but still asked: "Hello, may I ask who you're looking for?"

Su Yang said: "I'm Zhou Tong's brother-in-law; you're Song Zhong, right?"
