Chapter 950: You Li Xuewu Plotting for Qian Cai and Killing for Qian Cai

"Why are you here again?"

"Why can't I come?"

Yu Daru swayed and walked into Li Xuewu's office without any proper posture.

He waved his hand, signaling Peng Xiaoli, who followed him in, to hurry up and make tea, while he sat very casually opposite Li Xuewu.

"This place of yours isn't the White Tiger Hall, have one."

"You're taking my cigarette."

Li Xuewu curled his lips, looked at the other party's lack of courtesy, and retorted, "Is the Confidentiality Department all as idle as you?"

"What kind of talk is that!"

Yu Daru shook the cigarette in his hand, narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I'm here on official business today!"

"Whether you have official business or not is none of my business~"

Li Xuewu glanced at him and continued to look down at the documents.

This is a piece of dog-skin plaster. If you really treat him as a piece of material to deal with, you won't be able to do anything else all morning.

They are idle now, but he has a pile of work.

"Hey! You can't say that!"

Yu Daru didn't care about Li Xuewu's coldness either, took a hard drag of his cigarette, raised his eyebrows and said, "Today's case really has something to do with you."

"Speak if you have something to say, fart if you have something to fart."

Li Xuewu said without raising his head, "Don't you see I'm busy? There's a meeting soon, no time to chat with you."

"I already said I have official business!"

Yu Daru pulled a case file out of the bag behind him and placed it on Li Xuewu's desk, tapping it.

Li Xuewu glanced at it indifferently, was slightly stunned, then raised his head to look at the opposite side and asked, "How did it get involved with you guys?"

"Because you guys..."

Yu Daru wanted to fire a cannon, but seeing Li Xuewu's unkind eyes, he hurriedly changed his words: "Because they are all trash!"

"Do you dare to go to the sub-bureau with me and say this again?"

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at him and said, "If you dare to say it, I'll really respect you as a man."

"Don't dare! It's that I can't!"

Yu Daru slapped the table righteously and said, "I, Yu Daru, walk the rivers and lakes and talk about the word 'righteousness.' How can I speak ill of people in front of them!"

"Hiss~~~"

Li Xuewu curled his lips and "praised," "Is your 'righteousness' the 'different' that sounds the same but is different in reality!"

After speaking, he raised his fountain pen and pointed at the case file brought by the other party, asking, "What did they ask you to investigate?"

"Investigate Zhao Ziliang."

Yu Daru took a drag of his cigarette, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Isn't this because I heard Director Li is clear-sighted and has fiery eyes, so I came to ask for advice~"

"If you have nothing to do and are just playing around, turn right at the door."

Li Xuewu pointed to the door and said, "Director Sun should have nothing to do right now. You guys can chat."

"Hey! Director Li, I'm seriously discussing the case with you."

Yu Daru immediately put on a serious expression, pressed his hand on the case file, looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I suspect this case is not right, there are tricks."

"Oh? That's Li Kezhang Yu's divine calculation, seeing it at a glance."

Li Xuewu took the other party's ridicule and threw it back after a splash of urine.

Yu Daru knew he couldn't get any advantage here, but who let him like to talk nonsense with Li Xuewu.

"That's for sure, otherwise why do you think our leader asked me to support this case?"

He said very impolitely: "You have been making such a big fuss for such a long time, have you gained anything!"

"I think your leader letting you come out doesn't necessarily mean your ability is very strong."

Li Xuewu curled his lips and said: "Is it possible that he really hates your mouth?!"

"A joke!"

Yu Daru emphasized: "You don't even know how much our leader values me; whenever there's a big case, I'm the first one he thinks of!"

"Hehe~"

Li Xuewu looked at him, twisted the fountain pen in his hand, and asked: "Why don't you tell me what you've noticed."

"Hey~~~ now that's the way to ask for advice~"

Yu Daru was the type who would dare to pant if you praised him; right now, he continued to provoke Li Xuewu: "You determined that Zhao Ziliang is the murderer who committed fraud and murder, but I don't think so."

"Oh? Is that so~"

Li Xuewu picked up the cigarette case on the table, lit one for himself, leaned back in his chair, and asked: "What do you think?"

"The branch bureau asked our system to help investigate Zhao Ziliang's whereabouts to determine whether he is alive or dead."

Yu Daru was very serious when talking about the case; while pulling out the case file, he explained: "But we searched along the address where the letters were sent, and from the situation learned in Zhili, there is no possibility that Zhao Ziliang appeared."

"If he wanted to leave, it would be impossible for him to make that phone call back!"

He looked at Li Xuewu with certainty and said: "It's even more impossible for him to write those letters back; is he a fool?!"

Saying this, he showed the case file to Li Xuewu and said: "We compared the handwriting on the letters, and it's not Zhao Ziliang's at all."

"Also, we collected fingerprints."

Yu Daru narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "We checked everyone who might have come into contact with the letters, and the fingerprint traces on the letter paper were not among them at all."

"What does this explain?"

"What?"

Li Xuewu also narrowed his eyes and said: "It explains that there is someone else in the Zhang Shuqin case, and it explains that Zhao Ziliang also has a problem?"

Slap!

"Correct!"

Yu Daru slapped the table hard, pointed his finger at Li Xuewu, and said with an expression of "great minds think alike": "I think exactly the same as you!"

Peng Xiaoli, who brought the teacup over, couldn't help but twitch his mouth; looking all over the steel mill, there weren't many people who dared to slap the table at Li Xuewu.

Yu Daru didn't care about his expression but said excitedly: "The interesting thing about this case is that Zhao Ziliang is guilty, and the Discipline Inspection Commission is investigating him."

"If he is discovered together with this case, and the person disappears, who would think he is not the murderer?"

"You, of course~"

Li Xuewu flicked the cigarette ash indifferently, not at all shocked by his amazing discovery.

"They asked you to find Zhao Ziliang, but you are meddling in other people's business; you got a cold shoulder, didn't you?"

"... What do you mean meddling in other people's business!"

Yu Daru said with some embarrassment and anger: "I am selfless, this is true insight, and it is incisive!"

"Hmm, and the result?"

Li Xuewu looked at him with amusement, waiting for him to say the final words.

Yu Daru knew Li Xuewu was in this case, so of course he couldn't hide it from him; he said with some frustration: "I'm really convinced, they are all buckets of rice!"

After speaking, he still refused to be convinced, poured a cup of tea, and said indignantly: "How is this different from treating human life like grass?"

"Buckets of rice! Trash! Bastards!"

"You'd better point out the names."

Li Xuewu smiled mischievously: "Otherwise I wouldn't even know who you're talking about."

"Stop talking nonsense~"

Yu Daru waved his hand angrily and said: "From the moment I knew you were hiding, I figured out what he wanted to do, this bastard."

"Isn't he afraid that this case will have repercussions later? I don't believe he can escape punishment!"

"Not necessarily."

Li Xuewu said lightly: "If no new clues appear in ten or twenty years, this matter won't have much impact on him."

"I'm not convinced!"

Yu Daru waved his hand and said: "If you're afraid, just hide; I'm not afraid. No matter who he is or what he wants to do, I must get to the bottom of it!"

"Hmm, keep it up, I'm counting on you."

Li Xuewu signaled to Peng Xiaoli and said: "Help me prepare half a jin of the best tea for Li Kezhang Yu, wishing him great success in sweeping away the darkness."

"Hey~ hey~ hey~"

Seeing Li Xuewu not taking the bait, Yu Daru reached out to block Peng Xiaoli who was coming to see him off and said to Li Xuewu: "Why don't you play by the rules?!"

He said with some grievance: "I've already challenged you; you should say for the sake of justice, for the sake of the people, let's do it together!"

"Oh, I didn't know that's what you meant."

Li Xuewu looked at him calmly, as if to say you only told me now, and I didn't hear it before.

"But I've been very busy lately and have no interest in handling this case; I think you can do it alone."

"No!"

Yu Daru leaned forward like a madman and said: "I mean, don't you want to know who set up this trap and arranged and implemented this case?"

"I do~"

Li Xuewu raised his hand to signal him to speak and said: "When you solve the case, you must come and tell me; I'll be waiting for you."

"..."

Yu Daru looked at Li Xuewu speechlessly, and after a long stalemate, he nodded and said: "Fine, I surrender; I'm here to borrow the east wind from you."

Li Xuewu shrugged his shoulders, showing no interest in his mystification, but didn't refuse either.

"Lai Shanchuan is determined to close the case, even giving up on investigating the suspicious key points, convinced that Zhao Ziliang will not appear again."

Yu Daru said with a gloomy expression: "I suspect Zhao Ziliang has already been murdered, and there is a bigger problem lurking behind this case."

"You suspect?"

Li Xuewu sat up straight and asked: "Is it internal or external?"

"Maybe both."

Yu Daru extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand and explained: "The situation is so chaotic now that anything is possible; I reserve suspicion of everyone."

"Hmm, that makes sense."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, nodded in agreement, and asked again: "What is your basis?"

"First, let's talk about the couple Zhang Shuqin and Yu Lanfang."

Yu Daru said: "The two have a total monthly salary of over 117 yuan, which seems like a lot, and they have no children to raise, but Zhang Shuqin is also supporting her family."

"Their family life is not frugal; although their eating, drinking, and dressing are not as good as Zhao Ziliang's family, they are much better than ordinary families."

"We have calculated that based on the economic strength of the two, as well as the conflicts in the past few years, the level of wealth in their home is excessive."

"But!"

Yu Daru widened his eyes slightly, looked at Li Xuewu seriously, and said: "Zhang Shuqin has never had any violation records at work, and her character is very reliable."

"Are you saying... there's a problem with the fraud case?"

Li Xuewu thought for a while and said: "If considered from the perspective of criminal psychology, lacking money, or needing a lot of money to satisfy needs, it means she already had a prior record."

"Correct! That's it!"

Yu Daru sat up straight and said: "Everyone lacks money; even if Zhang Shuqin's family life is good, they still lack money, but she didn't have a process of embezzlement at work, so how could she directly attack the credit union?"

"What if? What if someone instigated it?"

Li Xuewu opened the case file and said: "Existing evidence proves that there is a special relationship between her and Zhao Ziliang."

"But this cannot prove that she is a bad person."

Yu Daru said: "People have seven emotions and six desires; handling a case still requires starting from the root and investigating carefully, not just generalizing."

"I have met Yu Lanfang; he said that the money in the family has always been managed by his wife, and Zhang Shuqin herself is a financial person and is very persistent about this point."

"He doesn't know anything, and he doesn't know how the electrical appliances and valuables in the home came to be; he just complained that his wife was extravagant."

"Zhao Ziliang's economy must have had a problem, not just internal reimbursement, but also frequently bringing things back from outside, with components of reselling, and the profit was quite rich."

"This point is the most critical."

Yu Daru opened his notebook and introduced: "We calculated that even if he made a profit every time, the total income combined could not satisfy their family life."

"Not to mention that he had so many mistress relationships; those all need money to maintain; this case has a problem."

"So you investigated Du Xiaoyan, right?"

Li Xuewu took the last puff of his cigarette, wiped the ash in the ashtray, and extinguished it directly.

Yu Daru knocked on the case file, narrowed his eyes, and said: "I knew she had a problem!"

After speaking, he looked at Li Xuewu with some resentment and said: "Since you already knew, why didn't you say it?"

"Say what?"

"When did I say she had a problem?"

Li Xuewu glanced at the opposite side, paused, and said: "Be rigorous; this is a case, and we must speak with facts."

"What I want is facts."

Yu Daru narrowed his eyes and said: "I went to check Du Xiaoyan's accounts at the credit union; guess what?"

"What? What else could it be?"

Li Xuewu said with a light smile: "There must be no problem, right?"

"Damn it!"

Yu Daru slapped the table hatefully and said: "No problem! No problem! No problem!"

He said to Li Xuewu with some hysteria, lowering his voice: "At this time, the credit union accountant actually has no problem?!"

"Do you think it's possible?"

"Hmm, it's possible."

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and said: "I have always firmly believed that good cadres like me in the organization far outnumber those bad elements."

"... Talking about business!"

Yu Daru looked at Li Xuewu speechlessly and said: "Even the small team leader in the village knows how to give his relatives more points; do you believe these accountants are strictly disciplined?"

"So? How do you want to investigate?"

Li Xuewu looked at him and said: "I was only invited to be responsible for criminal interrogation and related business support; how can I help you?"

"No, not you; it should be said that it's not just you."

Yu Daru blinked his eyes and asked: "Guess who is the person in charge of the Discipline Inspection Commission investigating the problems of the joint-venture factory?"

"Who?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked tentatively: "Xiang Yunian?"

"Haha! Guessed it!"

Yu Daru said with a smile: "The person behind this case would never imagine who they will be facing!"

He counted on his fingers: "The iron-faced judge of the City Discipline Inspection Commission, the young criminal investigation expert, and the strongest investigator of the Confidentiality Department..."

"Hiss~~~"

Li Xuewu was chilled by his boasting and asked: "Is there someone mixed in here who is not very harmonious?"

"..."

Yu Daru looked at Li Xuewu anxiously and asked: "Do you think Xiang Yunian doesn't deserve this title?"

"I'm just thinking..."

Li Xuewu stopped halfway and pursed his lips; he was really afraid that saying the complete words would hurt the fragile, dispensable friendship he had with someone.

"You contact Xiang Yunian."

Yu Daru didn't care about Li Xuewu's expression change, picked up the phone, handed it to Li Xuewu, and said: "Our three swordsmen will definitely make these monsters and ghosts have nowhere to hide."

Li Xuewu looked at him speechlessly, took the phone, and put it back.

Looking at Yu Daru's surprised expression, he said: "You have to explain to me clearly how you want to investigate."

"Investigate Du Xiaoyan, just like you thought."

Yu Daru explained: "I asked Du Xiaoyan about the extravagant situation of her family life, and she said it was all money given by her husband."

"I just don't believe it; this case is definitely not a fraud and murder case!"

He looked at Li Xuewu seriously and asked: "Tell me seriously, how did you suspect Du Xiaoyan?"

"Investigating a case~"

Li Xuewu said indifferently: "There are only a few people involved; can't find Zhao Ziliang, Yu Lanfang is in custody, if I don't suspect her, who do I suspect?"

"I think so too."

Yu Daru nodded and said: "But I have no way to directly investigate Du Xiaoyan; her leader is very protective of her, and Lai Shanchuan of the branch bureau seems to be familiar with her."

After saying this, he seemed to realize something and said to Li Xuewu: "You hid last week because of these, right?"

"I guessed it based on a man's intuition; even if Zhao Ziliang had an affair with Zhang Shuqin and they committed fraud together, it wouldn't reach the point of murder to silence them."

Li Xuewu easily diverted the topic and didn't answer Yu Daru's question.

And then continued: "When I suspected Zhang Shuqin's motive for fraud, I was thinking, she is good-looking, but not to the point where Zhao Ziliang would abandon his family for her."

"I didn't see any record of Zhao Ziliang owing money or being investigated in the case file; he doesn't look like someone who lacks money."

"Everything is at home, life is prosperous, and he can pick wild flowers normally; if I give you fifty thousand, would you take the risk to run away for a wild flower?"

"Even if Du Xiaoyan can spend money, even if the family's living burden is heavy, would he take such a big risk to commit fraud and murder?"

"What's the motive?"

Li Xuewu spread his hands and said: "I don't believe he loves his wife that much; at least judging from the facts, that's the case."

"If he really loved her, shouldn't the fifty thousand yuan be left for Du Xiaoyan? But two months have passed; is it possible?"

"Yes, it's contradictory."

Yu Daru nodded and said: "There must be a problem; you also think Zhao Ziliang didn't run away, but is dead, right?"

"I didn't say that."

Li Xuewu pursed his lips and said: "I am the same as you, fully reserving suspicion of everyone."

"My suspicion is based on real investigation!"

Yu Daru looked at Li Xuewu with amusement and asked: "What is your suspicion based on?"

"Intuition."

Li Xuewu pointed to his head and said: "This is criminal psychology; exclude all possibilities, even if it's impossible, it's possible."

"Intuition? Isn't that just blind guessing!"

Yu Daru had heard Li Xuewu say this word several times and said unconvinced: "If you say so, I also feel that there is an internal ghost behind this case; it might be you, Li Xuewu, who killed for money and seized the wealth!"

"You're not calling this intuition!"

Li Xuewu rolled his eyes and cursed: "You're crazy!"

"What's going on?"

Zhang Songying and Han Yating came to the canteen to report work to Li Xuewu; seeing his bad complexion, they asked with concern.

Li Xuewu smiled helplessly and said: "Been a bit tired lately, just tired."

"Is that so? Why are you so busy~"

Zhang Songying sat opposite him and said with concern: "Can't you put the work down for a bit~"

"Hmm, already arranging it."

Li Xuewu smiled slightly, looked at the two, and asked: "What? Something up?"

"It's about the hotel."

Han Yating sat down with her big belly, looked at Zhang Songying, and reported: "The opening is set for Wednesday; don't know if you have any instructions."

Zhang Songying also heard the hesitation in Han Yating's words, afraid of disturbing Li Xuewu, and echoed with some hesitation: "I wanted to ask for instructions, didn't expect you to be so busy."

"It's okay, met a bastard this morning, just angry."

Li Xuewu smiled and asked: "Director Li has decided on the name, right?"

"Yes, received notice from the Management Committee Office last week."

Zhang Songying reported: "Director Li approved 'Red Star International Hotel' as more atmospheric than the original Six Nations Hotel, so it should be used."

"We have made preparations here."

She flipped through her notebook and said: "All text-based labels and markers have been set as Red Star International Hotel; signs for towels, bath towels, door plates, etc., are all being rushed."

"Will it be in time?"

Li Xuewu drank a mouthful of soup and said: "Time is a bit tight; it's a test for you."

"It's okay, the factory's third industry is supporting us, no need to queue."

Zhang Songying said: "Now it's a trial operation; we will encounter many problems, just handle them slowly and learn slowly."

"Mainly the guests."

Han Yating took the initiative to speak: "According to Director Li's meaning, temporarily entertain visiting commercial travel groups first, then gradually open other functional areas."

"Hmm, Director Li thinks more."

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Just do it according to the leader's meaning; did the External Affairs Office say when the travel group will arrive?"

"Yes, there is a coordination notice."

Zhang Songying reported: "Tentatively scheduled for Friday afternoon; people from the External Affairs Department and the Confidentiality Department are responsible for the reception, and the location is at our hotel."

"The External Affairs Department is certainly willing."

Li Xuewu said while eating: "The hotel is right at their gate, which is convenient."

"Hmm, the cadres who came to connect also said so."

Zhang Songying smiled and looked at Han Yating, then explained: "Seems like they need to study first before they can carry out commercial activities."

"Very normal, listen to the organization's arrangements."

Li Xuewu pointed at them and urged: "Personnel training must be done well, done frequently, especially the confidentiality issue; don't make any mistakes."

"Understood."

The two answered in unison; Zhang Songying took her notebook and reported the personnel management issues of the International Hotel to Li Xuewu.

Han Yating was arranged to be the General Manager, but Zhang Songying was responsible for the preparatory work of the International Hotel.

The two got along very harmoniously, both clear about their respective abilities and tasks, and didn't haggle over the loss of power.

Zhang Songying is a professional, Han Yating is a manager; they respect each other and recognize each other.

Han Yating especially appreciated Zhang Songying's care for her during her injury and hospitalization; there were no problems whether from official business or private friendship.

After Zhang Songying finished reporting personnel preparations, materials, and service conditions, Han Yating reported management issues in finance and logistics.

Especially the management plans and service standards given by Li Xuewu were new knowledge for them.

Zhang Songying had been to Yangcheng for inspection and study, so she had been exposed to fresh things, while Han Yating could only master them through document study.

Li Xuewu listened very carefully; during this meal, cadres would occasionally come to find him to chat, but seeing him busy, they all greeted him and went to other compartments.

Combining the reports of the two, the general situation was very clear; Li Huai did not give too many instructions, but the Management Committee Office intended to intervene in management.

Because of this, the two came to report work to Li Xuewu.

In name, it was reporting work; although they were talking about work, they were still talking about problems.

The source of the problem was still the newly appointed Deputy Director Shi; according to the management sequence, the Management Committee Office had high management authority over reception work.

Previously, the relationship between Xu Sinian and Li Xuewu went without saying, and no one in the factory office had ever asked about the guesthouse.

But now the situation had changed; the small canteen separated from the guesthouse was managed by Liu Lan, and this fairy didn't know how she got together with Deputy Director Shi.

So naturally, Deputy Director Shi's influence on the small canteen increased sharply, and one could often see Liu Lan reporting work to him during lunch.

Qin Huairu had secretly cursed a few times, but Li Xuewu didn't care about this; he never intended to hold all these in his hands anyway.

When the small canteen was established, it was just to satisfy the dining needs of cadres above the deputy section level; what kind of interest relationship could there be?

Qin Huairu didn't care about the tiny bit of petty profit in the canteen; what she was dissatisfied with was that Li Xuewu had appointed her as the director of the small canteen back then.

If this isn't ungrateful, what is?

Zhang Songying had the same temper as Qin Huairu and had long since disliked Liu Lan; they had even clashed twice downstairs just now.

It was inevitable that she would express some resentment when reporting work to Li Xuewu.

"She is really hungry, catching whoever she can, and follows whoever she can."

"That person is also bold, and doesn't mind it being dirty; he really can bring himself to do it."

"Alright, say less."

Han Yating was young and thin-skinned, persuaded Zhang Songying, and then asked Li Xuewu for instructions: "About the personnel arrangement, what do you think?"

"You are the General Manager, you ask me?"

Li Xuewu put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and said with a smile: "The hotel is not like the guesthouse; who told you the hotel is managed by the guesthouse?"

"This..."

Han Yating and Zhang Songying looked at each other, saw the surprise in each other's eyes, and then looked at Li Xuewu together, asking: "Then who manages it?"

"Logistics, of course."

Li Xuewu packed up the bowls and chopsticks in front of him and said: "All service units are managed by the logistics group."

This is really reasonable; it sounds as if the guesthouse wasn't managed by logistics before, but could logistics really manage it?

What is Li Xuewu's meaning now?

Han Yating and Zhang Songying both understood; if the Management Committee Office comes to manage, they will say they listen to logistics; if logistics comes to manage, they will say they listen to the Management Committee Office.

If both sides come to manage together, then they will really have to clash and see if the other side has the guts to come directly to Li Xuewu.

"Just like this, care more about the opening ceremony."

Li Xuewu smiled slightly, threw the tissue in his hand confidently, stood up, and put on his jacket.

"I've been busy lately; I'll have Peng Xiaoli bring me the process for Wednesday."

"Oh, right."

Just as he reached the door, Li Xuewu suddenly stopped, turned his head, pointed at the two, and asked with a smile: "Do you know how to fish?"

"???"

Han Yating and Zhang Songying looked at each other blankly, then looked at Li Xuewu suspiciously, both shaking their heads.

Li Xuewu didn't care about this, nodded, and said: "Then you understand the principle of 'to take, one must first give,' right?"

After speaking, regardless of whether the two understood or not, he turned and left the compartment, walking downstairs.

The two people upstairs were still standing there looking half-understanding, especially Zhang Songying, who was still struggling with the fishing matter.

"Fishing? What fishing?"

She looked at Han Yating and asked: "Are we supposed to go fishing for him? Isn't it that he doesn't like eating fish~"

Xu Ning got on the train on Monday; his family introduced him to several objects, and in his words, this year's crops are lacking nutrition.

When Li Xuewu sent him out, he teased him, telling him to find a frontier girl to come back and live a life.

Xu Ning admitted very happily that he had this purpose, saying that the girls in the ethnic dance troupe were all good-looking, especially those from the frontier.

Regarding this point, the aesthetic views of Central Plains men have always been online, so there is a reason why the frontier region is full of singing and dancing.

Both were a bit reluctant when they parted; although the words were easy, they both knew it was a joke and were comforting each other.

Xu Ning left with the trade train, taking away Li Xuewu's hope, just like the trade train, hoping to bring back a harvest for him.

Li Xuewu didn't explain the details of the Journey to the West team to Xu Ning; he would naturally understand the situation when he arrived at the place.

Parting is always accompanied by some regrets and bitterness; if you meet another bastard in charge, your mood won't be beautiful all day.

Yu Daru ground his teeth in his office for more than an hour, just for that case.

In his words, it was to uphold justice, but Li Xuewu knew from the moment he entered the room that this grandson definitely harbored evil intentions.

You think the people in the Investigation Department are cunning, and the people in the Confidentiality Department are all fools?

They are all people who won't get up early without profit; it's either internal infighting or external interest disputes; it can't escape these few situations.

With Yu Daru's level of skill, he still came here to pry into his wall; if he really wanted to pick up a bargain, Li Xuewu would have bent down long ago.

This case is not a good pit to take advantage of; Li Xuewu cannot stab Zheng Fuhua in the back no matter who he is dealing with.

He deliberately avoided this case, just not wanting to make the other party embarrassed; he didn't expect a Cheng Yaojin to appear halfway.

Yu Daru and the others must have gained some benefits, or they were aiming at the position of the branch bureau; it might be that their leader wanted to move his butt.

Don't think the Confidentiality Department doesn't care about the branch bureau's position; letting Yu Daru's leader do Zheng Fuhua's job, he would be more than happy.

Not everyone likes the work in the Confidentiality Department; people who go in to work don't all want to be an inspirational little stone at the beginning.

Li Xuewu didn't do the thing of introducing Yu Daru to Xiang Yunian, but he communicated with the other party after Yu Daru left.

Xiang Yunian knew that Li Xuewu participated in the investigation of the case as a criminal investigation expert, but he was doing Discipline Inspection work and didn't have much intersection, so he didn't think about contacting him actively.

This time Yu Daru was good at threading the needle, connecting the two together again.

Regarding the doubts about the case mentioned by Li Xuewu and the reminder about Yu Daru and his background relationship, Xiang Yunian didn't have much opinion.

He specializes in investigating cadres and is really not afraid of these people fighting internally; even if they use some means, it doesn't matter, as long as they can catch the little tail.

Cooperating with Li Xuewu several times in a row, Xiang Yunian took advantage of it and progressed very quickly within the system, which can be considered a representative of young cadres.

Meeting Li Xuewu by chance this time, in his words, he was already talking about how to distribute the final benefits.

If there wasn't this troublemaker Yu Daru, Li Xuewu really wouldn't want to get involved in this case; now that he has been stirred up like this, he has to get involved.

So Li Xuewu's advice to Xiang Yunian is, plan before you act, don't contact Yu Daru; that dog has a very sensitive nose and knows how to cooperate.

As for the final distribution of benefits, Li Xuewu didn't say it very clearly; he estimated that when this case is investigated to the end, it is likely to be covered by a piece of gauze again; you see it vaguely, and it's not certain how it will be handled.

Of course, the people who should be handled must be handled, but the situation of paying attention to the impact will make the merits of the investigators greatly discounted.

Li Xuewu is not a person in this system; he can't talk about any benefits, and he doesn't care about money; at most, it's to protect his relationship in the branch bureau.

With Zheng Fuhua in the branch bureau, Ji Yuxiu's work is convenient, and his work will also be convenient in the future.

Xiang Yunian got the news and judgment from Li Xuewu, and as soon as he put down the phone, he organized manpower to go directly to the credit union through the lines of Du Xiaoyan and Zhang Shuqin.

Li Xuewu will not show up, and will not even show up at the branch bureau.

Since he has already told Lai Shanchuan, he will not be the villain and add trouble to others.

The villain naturally has to be played by Yu Daru and Xiang Yunian; one likes to do it, and the other doesn't care.

Li Xuewu can't; he still wants his face and has to maintain his glorious and upright image.

In the afternoon, while talking about work with Zhou Yao, the phone on the table rang.

Thought it was work, didn't expect it to be from Tong Huimei.

She doesn't dare to call Li Xuewu during working hours, and doesn't even dare to contact Li Xuewu actively.

This time there was no way; she and Jin Jiaojiao made this call from the hospital.

"Mr. Ma passed away, just now."

The news was very sudden; Li Xuewu was also stunned for a moment, and then he reacted to who the Mr. Ma she was talking about was.

Didn't wait for Mei Xiaohong's news yesterday afternoon, thought this matter was yellow, didn't expect there to be twists and turns.

Yesterday afternoon, the Mai Xiaotian couple went to visit Mr. Ma with Mei Xiaohong, but they didn't meet.

Because Mr. Ma was hospitalized, the doctor didn't let them visit that day.

By today, the hospital sent news, asking the Mai Xiaotian couple to take Tong Huimei and the two to the hospital.

Just like this, Tong Huimei and the two saw this master of the opera world somewhat confused and excited.

The old man's spirit was still quite good, but the family members' complexions were not very good.

The Mai Xiaotian couple explained to Mei Xiaohong the reason for visiting Director Li this time, and also talked about Yu Lanfang's situation.

Mr. Ma has been through the world's sophistication all his life; how could he not understand the tricks here.

Seeing the two girls standing beside the Mai Xiaotian couple, he didn't blame his goddaughter for acting on her own, and asked the two to sing a small segment each.

This Mr. Ma is also a transparent person; first he talked about his background and past, then commented on the two's singing skills and techniques, and then said the following.

But he had no intention of taking apprentices, mainly because of his physical condition, and he was an old student of the industry; taking them as apprentices would be of no benefit to their background.

It was the same as Mei Xiaohong; right here in the hospital, in front of several old friends, he recognized the two as goddaughters.

Don't know if it was because he felt his time was running out and he didn't have so many taboos and concerns, or if it was his emotion about the situation today, that made him very calmly accept the tea offered by Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao, who were worried.

No one in the room spoke to object, even if it could be seen that Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao came today with some background influence.

Accepting two goddaughters, saving a godson, and being able to settle his aftermath, this deal was worth it.

After accepting the tea from the two, Mr. Ma had a reason to speak, pointing out an old friend to Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao, saying he wanted to ask the other party to be the master of the two.

That Mr. Xun had seen the two sing a small segment, and also heard clearly the twists and turns caused by Yu Lanfang's case.

But seeing that both girls were weak women, without the look of dust, and even less of a cunning heart, it was considered a tacit agreement to Mr. Ma's words.

Mai Xiaotian knew this was a heaven-sent opportunity, so he immediately asked the two to kneel and offer tea to the other party.

Mr. Xun was also in the surging waves of the situation, naturally clear about the power and influence behind these two girls, and even more understood the meaning of the two apprentices his old friend pointed out to him.

His old friend's goddaughter, giving him some face, and Mai Xiaotian acting as a guarantor, only then did he accept the tea from Tong Huimei and the two.

Today in the hospital ward, it was considered a verbal alliance, and the formal apprenticeship ceremony would naturally wait until it was convenient to arrange later.

Mai Xiaotian was grateful for Mr. Ma's benevolence and took the initiative to guarantee that he would mediate, saying that as long as Yu Lanfang was not involved, he would definitely keep him safe.

Tong Huimei and Jin Jiaojiao were brought to the hospital by the Mai Xiaotian couple to visit Mr. Ma, and they were happy to see many seniors and masters here.

But they were confusedly instructed by the Mai Xiaotian couple to recognize a godfather, and then recognized Mr. Xun, one of the four great Dan actors, as their master; happiness came too suddenly, and they were a bit panicked.

Thinking of the things explained by Mai Xiaotian and Mei Xiaohong, and thinking of Li Xuewu's identity, they finally understood the key to the two of them being able to apprentice.

So on one hand, they expressed their guilt and apology, and on the other hand, they were afraid that their abilities were insufficient and their talents were limited, bringing shame to the master's school.

They wanted to take the initiative to refuse this heaven-sent surprise, but were afraid that these were all Li Xuewu's arrangements, and acting on their own would inevitably chill the lover's good intentions.

Just when the two were in a dilemma, Mr. Ma, who was in good spirits just now, suddenly passed away, giving the two a big blow.

The two had already cried once in the ward, and after Mr. Ma's family simply handled the aftermath, the two took the initiative to find Mr. Xun to apologize.

Mr. Xun had seen a lot and experienced a lot; he only told the two to come to his home to apprentice and learn art later.

Tong Huimei made this call just to ask for Li Xuewu's opinion.

Li Xuewu thought for a while and told her to discuss with Jin Jiaojiao and Mai Xiaotian, first help with the aftermath as goddaughters, and talk about other things later.

After putting down the phone, he called Shen Guodong again, asking him to prepare funeral gifts and at the same time go to inquire about the identity of that Mr. Xun.

Singing opera, Li Xuewu couldn't quite trust it.
