Niu Xiaoqiang didn't expect Wu Ping to encounter this kind of trouble, and couldn't help asking: "If I'm not mistaken, you are the number one person in charge of public security, why don't those people go to you to intercede, but go to Wu." Books, books, remembers?"

Tian Laosan waved his hand: "I'm just responsible for solving the case and arresting people, the specific review work is all by Wu, the book and the record, and it must be signed by her to be effective, that is to say, she is the one who has real power, as for me, I am an errand runner." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang showed a puzzled look: "As far as I know, Secretary Wu doesn't seem to be a person who holds power, right? Why doesn't she delegate power to you?"

Tian Laosan explained: "You misunderstood Secretary Wu, it's not that she doesn't want to delegate power, but she can't delegate power, she has issued documents from above, and all major cases need to be signed by the top leader to count, this is actually the right to approve the death penalty, Wu, Shu, ." I really have no choice but to bite the bullet. ”

Tian Laosan said this, and lowered his voice and said: "The people who ask Secretary Wu for intercession are basically the families of major criminals, and these people have also been sentenced to more than ten years in prison at the most, and several have been sentenced to death, if the sentence is very light, their families will not be so anxious." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang looked a little surprised: "We hope that there are still death sentences in the new district? I remember that the public security situation in the district seems to have always been good, at most it is a fight or something, why do you have to sentence so many death sentences at once?"

Tian Laosan shook his head slightly: "These few people sentenced to death are guilty of roadblock robbery, because the number is relatively large, so they will be sentenced to death, in fact, according to the previous situation, they will be sentenced to about ten years at most, and they can only be blamed for hitting the cusp." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang was curious: "How much money did they rob in total?"

Tian Laosan looked at Niu Xiaoqiang curiously: "What? Don't you know about this?"

Niu Xiaoqiang's face was full of surprise: "Why do I want to know about this?"

"Because it was the cashier of your factory who was robbed, there were three people, they originally wanted to go to the bank to deposit money, but they met the robbers halfway through, and a total of more than 36,000 yuan was robbed, the impact of this case is very bad, Secretary Wu sternly explained to me, let me solve the case as soon as possible, I was so busy that I didn't close my eyes in those days, and finally didn't pay Secretary Wu's trust, the case was solved, and the relevant personnel were also caught, this matter is related to your factory, I thought you knew it. ”

Niu Xiaoqiang sighed: "I just came back yesterday, and I haven't had time to understand the situation yet, Uncle Tian, it's really hard for you, thank you for your great contribution to the long-term peace and stability of the Hope New Area." ”

Tian Laosan smiled modestly: "Don't brag about me, this is what I should do, Secretary Wu is still waiting for you at home, I won't delay your time, let's talk again if you have time." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded and waved goodbye to Tian Laosan.

When he walked to the door of Wu Ping's house, Niu Xiaoqiang really saw several people squatting under the big tree opposite the gate, looking at the door panel with a sad face.

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't know these people, he pretended to be passing by and walked over directly, and then turned back from the path and slipped to the back door of Wu Ping's house.

Niu Xiaoqiang gently stretched out his hand and pushed, and the back door squeaked open, and as soon as he stepped out of his right leg, Wu Ping's questioning voice came from inside the house: "Who?"

"Sister Ping, it's me. ”

"Ah, you kid finally came, and you didn't contact me for so long, did you forget me?"

Wu Ping walked quickly to the back door as she spoke, and looked at Niu Xiaoqiang with an angry expression.

Niu Xiaoqiang scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Look at what you said, am I that kind of person? It's really because I can't pull away, so I delayed visiting Sister Ping, if it weren't for those many things, I would have come uninvited a long time ago." ”

Wu Ping stretched out her index finger and poked Niu Xiaoqiang's forehead, laughing and teasing: "You kid is really good at talking, and your mouth is still as good at coaxing people as before." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang saw that Wu Ping was not really angry, and his hanging heart was put down. He took Wu Ping's hand and whispered, "Sister Ping, how are you doing in the past half a year?" Let me take a good look at you and see if you have changed. ”

Wu Ping, who originally had a very straightforward personality, actually twisted it, she pushed Niu Xiaoqiang away and turned around: "My sister has wrinkles on her face, she is too old to speak, you wait for a while, I'll dress up and then come out to see you." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang grabbed Wu Ping's arm: "Sister Ping, don't think nonsense, you will always be the good sister who is high-spirited and beautiful at the same time in my eyes." ”

In fact, Wu Ping has already dressed up, and the reason why she said this is because Niu Xiaoqiang is now an international student, and she feels that the identity gap between the two has been widened, so she is no longer as confident as before.

In this day and age, international students are definitely rare animals, and their rarity is comparable to that of giant pandas. Moreover, Niu Xiaoqiang is an international student at MIT, and he is even more bullish than other international students, so it is no wonder that Wu Ping has no confidence.

Listening to Niu Xiaoqiang's praise, Wu Ping felt warm in her heart, she turned around and pulled Niu Xiaoqiang into the bedroom: "There are people staring outside, I can only make a hot pot to entertain you, otherwise if you make a fire and stir-fry, they will definitely find out." ”

The bedroom was dark, and the windows were all covered with thick wooden boards, and a torn sheet hung from the wooden boards to block out the light. Wu Ping took out a match and lit the kerosene lamp, followed by the alcohol stove, and began to cook the hot pot.

Niu Xiaoqiang sat down on the chair and turned his head to look around.

He had been to this place once before he left the country, and when he came back half a year later, he found that the furnishings in the house had not changed, and it was still the same as it was half a year ago.

If anything, the mattress that had been spread on the bed had been replaced with a thick blanket, in addition to a thick quilt.

Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but sigh: "Sister Ping, why are you still so thrifty? Anyway, you are also the number one in the district, no matter how frugal you are, you can't treat yourself so harshly, right?"

Wu Ping poured the boiling water into the pot, and then added condiments to it: "There are still so many poor households in our district, whenever I think of those people who can't eat enough, I don't dare to slack off." ”

"You are the number one, the helmsman of the district, only by taking care of yourself first, can you better lead the villagers to get rid of poverty and become rich." ”

Wu Ping stretched out her hand and stroked her slender hair, looking quite feminine: "Don't persuade me, I'm not so squeamish, and I won't have no motivation to work because of poor living conditions." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled helplessly: "Okay, I won't persuade you, I brought you some gifts when I returned to China this time, so I should help you improve your life." ”
