Jiangning Municipal Government is located in the prosperous Xuanwu, which is the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. At half past eight o'clock in the morning, a young armed policeman with a Gusu license plate at the gate of Beijing's Jiping Guò drove into the compound where the five-star red flag was fluttering in the Spring Festival.

At this time, it was the rush hour of the government agencies, and many people who were bored with leisure and bore all probed their heads, wondering where the Jeep was sitting in the off-road. When they saw that the door was opened and walked down by a young policeman in a neat police uniform, most people also lost the interest in exploring further. Only a very small number of people continued to observe patiently, and when they were about to lose interest in the young man standing in the compound, they hurried out of the city office building to welcome a young man.

The youth was very enthusiastic, and almost regarded this young man with an inconspicuous epaulette as a big man like a provincial leader. The eyes of the people in the government units are very poisonous, and they don't need to think about it more, just look at the outline, and you can know that the young man who came out is the confidant secretary of the No. 2 big man in the city government, surnamed Qi Siyi, is a doctoral student of Jiangning University, and the city government is very deep on weekdays, I don't know if it is influenced by Mayor Lin, and rarely participates in the gathering activities of the municipal office, and is very polite to people, but it also gives people the illusion of rejecting people thousands of miles away. Such an enthusiastic state as today is enough to surprise countless do-gooders in the city government.

"Brother Qi, you're killing me! The dignified mayor's secretary personally ran out to greet me, a little person, maybe those seven aunts and eight aunts in your compound are already speculating at this moment. Seeing Qi Siyi with a smile on his face, Li Yundao smiled bitterly and quipped.

Qi Siyi looked outside, and indeed had some eyes on this side, but he didn't care at all, but said with a smile: "The boss ordered yesterday, you have to come over early today, I'm afraid you will come early, and you will be waiting at about seven o'clock." ”

"Brother Qi, you are serious, they are all brothers, what are we polite about!" Li Yundao is indeed quite familiar with Qi Siyi, after coming to Jiangning, when he met Lin Yiyi one by one, basically this confidant secretary was waiting on the side to serve tea and pour water, so Qi Siyi, the number one person in the city government, also knew that the young man in front of him was not as simple as a small criminal police captain. Judging from the tone revealed by the boss, whether it is the boss above or the big people in the capital involved in their conversation, Qi Siyi is not at this level that can intervene and communicate.

"The boss has just arrived, and he was still asking if Yundao is about to arrive. By the way, brother congratulate you on your promotion!" Qi Siyi said with a smile, "As soon as I heard that there is an exchange quota in the Ministry of Public Security in the capital, I don't know how many people squeezed their heads and wanted to gild, and several slips were sent to the boss's desk, do you know what the boss said?"

"Ahh ”

"No, the boss unanimously refused, because he already knew that this quota must be directional, but I didn't expect it to be you, I guess the boss had already guessed it. ”

Li Yundao smiled bitterly: "It's also that the old people in the family are old, and there are not many days to be filial piety under their knees, so they used some connections and temporarily seconded back for a short period of time." It's just that Jiang Ning's affairs have just had some clues......"

Walking in the empty hall of the city government building, Qi Siyi looked left and right, confirmed that no one was talented, and said in a low voice: "After you reported to the boss that day, the boss met with the surname Long. ”

Li Yundao nodded, but he couldn't guess what chips Long Zhengqing took out to persuade Lin Yiyi, however, the product of political compromise, if Long Zhengqing can come up with enough chips, it is equivalent to a gold medal to avoid death, with Lin Yiyi's character, as long as he promises, he will not let their father and son have too many worries about their lives.

"After talking to the surnamed Long that day, the boss kept praising you, saying that he could rest assured that you were still doing things, and that when you left, the boss was really missing a general who was charging into battle. Qi Siyi said seriously with pity, "But the boss also said, fortunately, you have opened the most important door before leaving, and as long as there are no major accidents, it is not impossible to break through." It's just a pity that you ran to the capital and let others pick up this great credit in vain. The last sentence was added by Qi Siyi himself, and he now regards Li Yundao as his own, so when he sees others picking peaches, he is more or less dissatisfied.

"Brother Qi, don't worry, the truth of this world is like this, what should be yours is yours, no matter how much you fight, it will be empty in the end. ”

When they walked into the elevator and someone else came in, the two stopped talking. Follow Qi Siyi all the way upstairs, and then to the end of the corridor on the nineteenth floor, turning into an office with a large area, several middle-aged people are already waiting on the sofa, and they all seem to be a little nervous. Qi Siyi pointed to an empty sofa and whispered, "You sit down for a while, and I'll go talk to the boss." ”

Li Yundao nodded and motioned for Qi Siyi to get busy. He observed that the four middle-aged people around him were almost forty years old, and they all seemed to be block-faced people under the jurisdiction of the city government.

Li Yundao laughed a little when he thought about it, took out a cigarette and threw it to the four of them: "The four leaders smoke!"

The four middle-aged people who were also staring at the report materials in their hands glanced at Li Yundao and hesitated, but they all took the cigarettes, and the four of them seemed to be smokers, putting the cigarette between their noses and upper lips, and greedily smelling the smell of tobacco, but none of them dared to light the cigarette.

Li Yundao took out the lighter, the flames flew high, and after adjusting the gas output, Li Yundao sent the lighter to a middle-aged man beside him: "Take a puff, take a puff and don't be nervous." ”

The middle-aged man hesitated for a while, and finally waved his hand, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and looked at Li Yundao with some surprise: "Brother, are you from the Municipal Public Security Bureau?"

Li Yundao said with a smile: "I am from the Jiangbei Branch. ”

"Oh!"

"Contemptible Zhao Guangsheng, Finance Bureau. The middle-aged man introduced himself, "I heard that Mayor Lin doesn't like to smell smoke very much." ”

Li Yundao was stunned, he had the impression that when he was with Lin Yiyi, he had to swallow the clouds and spit out the fog, Lin Yiyi's addiction to smoking was very big.

Hearing the two chatting, the middle-aged man next to Zhao Guangsheng also came over: "Brother, I'm about to die, usually I get up in the morning, at least two cigarettes, I want to come to face the saint today, I haven't dared to touch any tobacco since last night!"

Li Yundao thought about it, picked up the lighter and lit the cigarette on his mouth: "That's it, you smoke secretly, and when he smells it when he turns around, you say that the little policeman outside smoked it, and he smoked several cigarettes in a row." ”
