Chapter 2122

He said sternly, "Which police officers?"

Wu Zhengjing said, "I don't know either. The comrades from the investigation team said they saw several people take Director Pang out of the County Party Committee reception house, get into a jeep, and didn't know where they went. They drove to chase but couldn't catch up."

Yuan Yifu said, "Did you see the license plate number clearly?"

Wu Zhengjing said, "No. Today is a cloudy day, and it's almost six o'clock now, so it's quite dark. They didn't see the license plate clearly."

Yuan Yifu looked at Wu Zhengjing's appearance and was full of fire. So you don't know anything, and you ran over to shout "Secretary Yuan had something happen"?

Yuan Yifu waved his hand and walked downstairs. He wanted to go to the scene to see for himself and ask those people from the investigation team. Wu Zhengjing wanted to follow, but Yuan Yifu said, "You call Gao Tongguang and tell him to go to the County Party Committee reception house immediately."

Yuan Yifu was truly annoyed. What was going on with Gao Tongguang? His public security system had continuous incidents. Last time it was Tang Chaoxin, and this time he didn't know who it was, but they actually dared to go to the County Party Committee reception house to arrest people, and the person they arrested was still the big secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. Their nerve was truly fat.

Yuan Yifu quickly arrived at the County Party Committee reception house. In the lobby of the reception house, a group of people had already gathered—they were all from the investigation team. The members of both the former and latter investigation teams had all arrived.

Yuan Yifu hurriedly asked, "Director Lao, what is the situation?"

Lao Xinhua said, "I don't know very well either. I was resting in my room just now and was also called up by them. Little Qian, you introduce the situation to Secretary Yuan."

The witness was a member of the second investigation team, surnamed Qian. When he was going downstairs, he happened to see Pang Xingjie being taken out of the gate of the County Party Committee reception house by three people. He saw Pang Xingjie have some struggling movements, so he shouted "Director Pang." Pang Xingjie looked back at him and was stuffed into a jeep.

When Pang Xingjie was stuffed into the jeep, Little Qian discovered that he was wearing a pair of handcuffs on his wrists, only then guessing that those few people were police officers, although they were all wearing plain clothes.

By the time Little Qian ran from the stairs to the door, that car had already driven away in a cloud of dust. Little Qian called people to drive in the direction just now to chase, but how could they catch up? They asked pedestrians along the way, but the pedestrians were also vague.

Now everyone was at their wit's end. When the staff of the County Party Committee reception house learned of this incident, the manager immediately reported it to his direct supervisor, Wu Zhengjing, and Wu Zhengjing reported it to Yuan Yifu.

Yuan Yifu was also confused after hearing this. What was going on?

At this time, Gao Tongguang arrived. He inquired about the situation, and Little Qian also introduced the situation to him. Gao Tongguang immediately started making phone calls, asking if the County Public Security Bureau had any such actions today. But after a round of calls, there was no clue at all. The County Public Security Bureau had no department with such actions.

This made them all puzzled. What was going on? Who exactly took Pang Xingjie away?

Suddenly, Gao Tongguang thought of a possibility. He widened his eyes and said, "Director Pang wouldn't have been kidnapped, would he?"

Yuan Yifu was startled. Kidnapped? Thinking about it carefully, this possibility really existed. Why would he be kidnapped? Because he offended people. Offended whom? This was hard to say.

At least Yuan Yifu didn't dare to say it in public.

If it was kidnapping, then the matter would be big. Yuan Yifu was truly anxious. During this period, why were there so many suspicious things in Chongjin County?

Just when they were all as anxious as ants on a hot pot, Yuan Yifu's mobile phone suddenly rang, which startled them all. Yuan Yifu hurriedly picked up the phone.

The roar of City Party Committee Secretary Huang Weiran came from the phone: "Yuan Yifu, how are you handling things? Why does your Chongjin County have incidents again and again?"

It turned out that the first time they discovered Pang Xingjie was taken away, Lao Xinhua called the Provincial Party Committee to report. As soon as the people from the Provincial Party Committee heard such a serious matter, they immediately contacted Jiang Fangpin. Jiang Fangpin was simply beyond angry. This was his secretary being arrested for the second time in three days. Did they think he, the Provincial Party Committee Secretary, was fake?

Jiang Fangpin had people notify Chengshui City Party Committee Secretary Huang Weiran, asking Chengshui City to handle this matter properly as soon as possible. Then he waited in the province, waiting for Chengshui City and Chongjin County to give him an explanation. This damn nerve was too big, wasn't it?

He was no longer calling any emergency Standing Committee meetings now. The one who was anxious now was not him, but Ke Zhifang and those people. Ke Zhifang would definitely regret what kind of people he had used. Being so bold and reckless, if this matter was confirmed to be done by Su Xinghui, then even Ke Zhifang himself wouldn't be able to clean up the mess.

He now wished Pang Xingjie would come back a few days later. The later he came back, the more serious this matter would be. By then, no one would be able to speak up to protect Su Xinghui. Murderous intent appeared in his eyes. With the situation developing to this point, it was no longer as simple as just knocking Su Xinghui around.

As soon as Yuan Yifu heard Huang Weiran's roar, he subconsciously stood at attention and said, "Secretary Huang, we have already arrived at the scene and are investigating this matter."

Huang Weiran said, "Then what have you investigated?"

"There are no clues yet. There is only one witness. Because the weather was bad today, he didn't see the license plate clearly. Gao Tongguang has already inquired about all departments of the County Public Security Bureau, and no department has such an action. He suspects whether someone kidnapped him."

"What? Kidnapping?" Huang Weiran's voice was so loud that Yuan Yifu's ears went numb. However, he didn't dare to take the mobile phone away, so he could only endure the numb and itchy feeling and continue listening.

"You hurry up and look for him! If you can't find him, you don't need to be the County Party Committee Secretary anymore!"

Yuan Yifu nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, Secretary Huang, we will go look for him immediately. We must find Director Pang."

Huang Weiran hung up the phone. Yuan Yifu said to Gao Tongguang, "Old Gao, you hurry up and mobilize the police force of the whole county to look for him. You must find Director Pang; otherwise, we won't be able to explain!"

Gao Tongguang nodded. He took out his mobile phone and dialed the other leaders of the bureau, asking them to mobilize the police force of the whole county to look for Pang Xingjie, focusing on looking for a jeep, especially a jeep with an out-of-town license plate.

Actually, if it really was a jeep, it would be easier to find. There weren't many jeeps now, especially jeeps with out-of-town license plates, which were even fewer. If they were really in Chongjin County, they should be able to be found. He was just afraid that those people had already left the territory of Chongjin County, which would be troublesome.

There was another trouble, which was that it was already night. Streetlights in Chongjin County were not very popular, especially in the new district, where many infrastructures were not yet perfect, not to mention in the countryside. This also added great difficulty to the search.

But no matter what, now that such a big thing had happened, the police force of the whole county was mobilized to search inch by inch, digging three feet into the ground. As long as that jeep was still in Chongjin County, it would definitely be found.

Gao Tongguang issued several instructions in a row before hanging up the phone. He said to Yuan Yifu, "Secretary Yuan, now I have mobilized the police force of the whole county, whether they are on duty or off duty, to look for him. Even those on vacation have been mobilized. They should be able to find him, so don't be too worried."

Yuan Yifu said unhappily, "Can I not be worried? If it really was kidnapping and he was kidnapped from the County Party Committee reception house, then I don't need to be the County Party Committee Secretary, and you don't need to be the Political and Legal Committee Secretary. Is the public security of this Chongjin County still okay?"

Lao Xinhua nodded and said, "Yes, now it makes us not dare to stay here either."

Yuan Yifu hurriedly said to Lao Xinhua, "Director Lao, don't worry. We will transfer a few more police officers starting today to stand guard at the gate of the County Party Committee reception house. It will definitely be very safe here."

Actually, when Pang Xingjie first arrived in Chongjin County, Yuan Yifu had placed a few sentries at the gate of the County Party Committee reception house. However, Pang Xingjie himself asked him to withdraw them, saying that these police officers guarding here made him look like a prisoner.

Yuan Yifu followed Pang Xingjie's wishes and withdrew all the sentries. He also felt that the public security in Chongjin County was not bad and nothing would happen. Since Pang Xingjie didn't like it himself, there was no need to have sentries.

He hadn't expected that such a thing would actually happen. This made Yuan Yifu regret it endlessly. Now, no matter what, he had to set up the sentries again; otherwise, if anything else happened, he would simply resign himself.
