When the soft "The phone you dialed has been turned off" prompt came out of the phone, although Ye Ming was a little strange, he didn't think much about why Hong Xi suddenly turned off the phone, but came back to the outside of his room, knocked on the door, and told Li Jianhe: After Hong Xi comes back, no matter how late it is, please be sure to go to his room and discuss important matters. [Full text reading]

It was about one o'clock in the morning, Ye Ming had just fallen asleep dimly, but Hong Xi knocked on the door and came in at this time.

The moment Ye Ming opened the door, he found that Hong Xi's face was a little pale, his eyes were a little puffy, and there were one or two cyan bruises on his cheeks, as if he had been beaten or fallen, so he couldn't help but be taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Xiaohong, what's the matter?" Did you get into a fight? Why is your face so bad and there are still scars on your face? ”

The cyan bruises on Hong Xi's face were kicked by Tong Zi'an when he caught him, how could he dare to tell Ye Ming at this time? I had to cover up a little panicked: "Section Chief Ye, I was just drunk, I went out for a walk alone, and when I was walking on the embankment by the Huangshui, I accidentally stepped into the air and fell into the dirt pit below the embankment, and my face was bruised. ”

Ye Ming looked at his scars a little suspiciously, and asked again, "Why is your phone turned off?" ”

"It's not a shutdown, it's a dead battery. Section Chief Ye, what important things are you looking for me? Just now, Li Jianhe said to me, no matter how late it is, you want me to come to you. Whatever you command, it is. ”

Ye Ming nodded, pointed to the stool in the guest room, asked him to sit down, and then lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Hong, let me ask you a question: Do you want to be rewarded for meritorious service in this investigation?" ”

When Hong Xi heard this, his body trembled inexplicably, but he quickly calmed down, his eyes stared at Ye Ming, nodded and said, "Yes, of course I want to!" Section Chief Ye, I have worked in the Supervision Office of the Provincial Party Committee for five years, and I have never been formally promoted. The current deputy chief clerk is still qualified. If I can receive an award for meritorious service, then of course I can't ask for it. ”

Ye Ming smashed his lips with satisfaction, raised his head and thought for a while, and then said slowly: "Xiaohong, if you want to receive a meritorious award, you will follow me alone this time, and you can't get involved in the investigation of Hu Deqing and others." Their investigation was just a showmanship, which was manipulated and directed by some leaders of the Huangyuan County Party Committee, and had no meaning. I want you to assist me, work with me to investigate and deal with the truth about illegal fundraising in Huangyuan County, and then report to the leaders of the provincial party committee alone. In this process, you have to absolutely listen to me, and dare to fight against Hu Deqing, Chen Jianli and others, and strictly keep secrets - do you have the guts? ”

Hong Xi had a strange expression on his face again, but Ye Ming didn't notice it. After hesitating for a moment, Hong Xi said in a very resolute tone: "Section Chief Ye, I believe in you and am willing to follow you." You say: what should we do next? ”

Ye Ming pondered for a moment again before he said, "Tomorrow morning, Hu Deqing and the others will go to some investment companies to conduct investigation and verification work according to the arrangement of Huangyuan County. I would ask him that I don't want to engage in these formalistic things, and I want to do some research and understanding on my own. I guess that Hu Deqing will definitely agree to my request in order to prevent me from deliberately finding fault when following them in the investigation. When the time comes, I will take you to find someone and ask about some information. This person is the breakthrough of our secret investigation, and it is also the key to whether we can lift the lid on illegal fundraising in Huangyuan County. So, I want you to follow me as a witness and make a record for me. ”

Hong Xi persuaded a little uncertainly: "Section Chief Ye, I think you should not be unconventional and do some other investigation!" I think: as long as you follow Director Hu to investigate, what you should eat, what you should drink, what you should play, and you will be happy with the light, what's wrong? Why bother with lifting the lid on yourself? At that time, you may not be able to find out anything, and you have offended Director Hu and the leaders of Huangyuan County, so that you are not a person inside and out, what is the need? ”

Hong Xi was still holding on to the last trace of luck at this time, hoping to persuade Ye Ming not to engage in any secret investigation, in that case, the investigation team in Huangyuan would be a happy ending, and his bad things last night would be over, and they would not be exposed by Zheng Xiaoliang and others......

Ye Ming saw that he had promised well, but now he suddenly retreated again, and said unhappily: "Xiaohong, do you think I am a character who is the same as the light?" What is the purpose of our investigation? It is necessary to investigate the truth of illegal fund-raising in Huangyuan County and provide a basis for the leaders of the provincial party committee to make correct decisions. If we follow Hood Deqing in formalism, what is the point of our investigation? Besides, why don't you have a sense of justice and responsibility as a young cadre?

"I can tell you: as a young person, if you want to make a difference, if you want to be promoted, you must have breakthrough and drive, you must do practical things, do big things, and do beneficial things, and you can't just go with the flow and get by. There is a saying that 'there is a place for promising', and you can only get the corresponding position if you have done a good job. If you don't want to do anything, you just want to be a monk for a day and hit the clock for a day, how do you let your superiors promote you? How can the masses convince you? ”

Hong Xi's face turned red and white for a while when Ye Ming said this, and after a long time, he whispered: "Section Chief Ye, you are right, I am usually a bit negative and a little unenterprising. Now that I have listened to your kind words, I have a feeling of enlightenment. You can rest assured that I will actively assist you and help you find out the truth about the illegal fund-raising in Huangyuan County and strive for meritorious service and awards. ”

Speaking of this, he seemed to ask casually: "Section Chief Ye, take the liberty of asking: What is the name of the person we are going to see tomorrow?" What is it for? ”

Ye Ming didn't pay attention to the strange tone in Hong Xi's question, and replied defenselessly: "Her name is Wu Lijiao, she lives in the old dormitory building of Huangyuan County Raw Material Company, and she is the wife of Cai Heshun, the chairman of Heshun Company. Last time she went to the Provincial Bureau of Letters and Visits**, there was a deputy director of the Huangyuan County Public Security Bureau named Tong Zi'an who took someone to intercept the visit, and was about to forcibly take Wu Lijiao back to Huangyuan County, but I stopped her——"

As soon as he said this, he suddenly heard Hong Xi's frightened "ah", and hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see that Hong Xi's face suddenly turned pale, beads of sweat rolled on his forehead, and his body trembled like chaff, and he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Xiao Hong, what's wrong with you?" Is it uncomfortable? ”

Hong Xi is now afraid of the three words "Tong Zi'an", so when Ye Ming said this name just now, he couldn't help but exclaim, and then he pushed the boat down the river and said: "Section Chief Ye, I may have a cold, go back to the room to rest first, and I will go with you to find that Wu Lijiao tomorrow morning." ”
