Chapter 508 Woman’s Heart

"Is it that serious? Boliang, can you remove the word "ma"? As for, it's too serious. Do you know who that Deputy Director Li is? He wants to get to the bottom of this matter. Not to mention me and your uncle, even your uncle's former boss dared not interfere.

Don't think that he is just the deputy director of your municipal bureau. Regardless of who his father-in-law is, he himself can meet with those old comrades at any time.

Even the supervisory committee above has to ask him to help interrogate those who have been arrested for corruption. Do you think that if you don't take the initiative to explain the problem to him, how long can you hold on when he comes back to find you?

Rather than passively accepting the investigation at that time, it is better to strive for a good attitude now. And if there is nothing concealed in what you just said, in my opinion, the problem is not particularly serious. The policy of our organization has always been to cure the disease and save the life, to punish the past and prevent the future. We will not kill people with one stick. We will still give them the chances they deserve.

But it depends on whether you can seize this opportunity. "

There were more beads of sweat on Wu Boliang's forehead. He was really frightened by what his old man said.

When his old man learned today that the new deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau was coming to personally handle a criminal case, he took the time to call his eldest brother who works in the city. The purpose of the call was to inquire about the background of this Deputy Director Li.

Don't ask, don't know, I'm startled when I ask.

After learning about Deputy Director Li's deep connections, he had originally planned to go over to have lunch with him in the afternoon to get to know him better. However, as soon as he mentioned it to his eldest brother, he was stopped.

His elder brother told him that the newly appointed deputy director was not an easy person to deal with, and that a close relationship could not be established by just having a meal. Moreover, the meal was invited by the two main leaders, Rouhuai, together. As the deputy director, there was no need for him to force his way in and only make others dislike him. He said that if there was a chance in the future, he would think of a way in the city.

But who would have thought that his elder brother's solution would force him to meet the deputy director with a strong background in Rouhuai first, but this time the transaction was not what he wanted.

After a few seconds of silence, Wu Boliang on the other end of the phone finally decided to accept his old man's advice.

"Dad, I understand. I'll go find him now and explain everything to him one by one."

"Well, remember what I said just now. If your brother-in-law really did something that angered the heavens and the people, and you really didn't interfere, you must not hesitate to draw a clear line between you and your wife."

The old man's cold tone on the phone made Wu Boliang's breathing suddenly stagnate. In fact, after the person who informed him just now came over and told him, he realized that his wife at home had done a lot of tricks behind his back over the years. He was still thinking about how to save his wife this time. Now it seems that this idea should not be tried.

From what the old man said, it would be good enough if he could make a safe transition this time.

But...but she is the mother of his two children after all.

"Dad, Xiaoyan is the mother of your two grandchildren."

"Of course I know, but she has used our family's resources to do a lot of things for her family over the years, so it's not unfair to her. According to what you just said, Deputy Director Li is serious this time, and this is no longer something I can interfere with.

Boliang, sometimes you have to make a choice about something, you... figure it out yourself."

Bada
After saying this, the old man on the other end of the phone hung up the receiver.

Hearing the busy tone coming from the receiver, Wu Boliang sighed deeply.

Make a choice!

It is easier said than done.

However, no matter how difficult it was, he had to make a choice. Wu Boliang quickly made up his mind, turned and walked to the window and looked into the yard. When he saw the figure in the yard, he took a deep breath again and walked out of the office.

……

"Hello, Director Li! Sorry to bother you!"

Looking at the security captain Wu Boliang who was walking towards him and greeting him from afar, Li Yancheng nodded lightly.

"Why didn't Captain Wu go back to rest?"

"You are still here all night long working on the case. How can we, your subordinates, rest alone?"

"It's my fault. The case needs to be solved, and I need to rest. Combining work and rest is the right way. By the way, Captain Wu, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"I do have something to talk to you about." As he spoke, Wu Boliang took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over.

Seeing that the cigarette handed to him was a cigarette with a filter, Li Yancheng raised his eyebrows, smiled and shook his head and said, "I can't get used to your cigarette, I still prefer this one."

What he took out was the Daqianmen with a filter. Although like Huazi, it was produced by the Shanghai Cigarette Factory, and it was rumored that Daqianmen was made with the leftovers of Huazi, he still preferred the taste of Daqianmen.

After looking at the cigarette in the leader's hand and then at the cigarette he took out, Wu Boliang really wanted to slap himself. Why was he pretending to be so high and mighty? Now you're done for.

He smiled awkwardly, didn't dare to smoke, and put the cigarette back into his pocket. He decided to get straight to the point.

"Director Li, this is what you said in the yard just now. I already know what you said about Guo Xiaohu and the illegal things he did in the past. I want to report to you, or... it would be more accurate to say that I surrender myself."

Surrender?

Li Yancheng looked at Wu Boliang with a little surprise. The reason why he didn't say anything to ask for confidentiality was that he wanted to give this guy a chance.

He knew very well that what he said would soon reach the ears of the captain of public security, and he wanted to see how he would react.

So far, so good.

However, it was a little beyond his expectation. He thought that if the captain was smart, he would come to him to explain. However, he did not expect that this man would do something decisive and come directly to surrender. It seemed that he must have received guidance from his old man.

Whether it's an explanation or surrender, let's listen to it first.

"Say it, I'm listening."

"First of all, Director Li, I want to admit my mistakes to you and the organization. I have failed the trust that the leadership and the organization placed in me..."

Barabara...

Wu Boliang started off by making a self-criticism, and he managed the issue pretty well. He did not shirk responsibility, nor did he emphasize objective phenomena. He only talked about his own problems. Then, he told the public about some of the criminal facts of Guo Xiaohu that he knew of.

"Director Li, to be honest, I have heard some rumors about some things and asked Guo Xiaohu about them, but he told me that he didn't do it. I trusted him too much and he was my relative so I didn't plan to investigate further. This is indeed my problem.

But I really didn’t know about many of the things he did, she…”

"Not aware of it?" This was the first time Li Yancheng spoke since Wu Boliang started talking for more than half an hour.

"Comrade Wu Boliang, this kind of thing can't be brushed aside by saying you didn't know about it, right? Guo Xiaoyan is your wife, your bedmate. Everything she does represents you in the eyes of outsiders, and...

I'm afraid you can't afford the cigarettes you just took out with your salary? You know best how you got them."

When reminded of the cigarette he had just taken out, Wu Boliang was so annoyed that he wanted to bang his head against the wall. With his salary, he really couldn't afford that cigarette.

"I understand, Director Li, I know." He didn't explain anything, and he couldn't explain it, so he just nodded hurriedly and said, "Director Li, I'm not saying this to shirk responsibility, I'm just stating the actual situation.

In fact, there are some things that do not require my presence. How should I put it, there is no need to use my name. I have an older brother-in-law who is the deputy director of the Chengguan Town Police Station. In many matters, his words may be more effective than mine, the captain of the public security brigade.

The reason why many people give her face is often not because she is my wife, but because of my father.

But no matter what the reason is, it is indeed my negligence in managing and educating my family members that has led to the current situation. This is my fault and I do not deny it. "

"You just mentioned your brother-in-law, his name is Guo Xiaolong, right?"

"Yes." Wu Boliang now realized that the Deputy Director Li in front of him might have much more information than he did.

But didn't this person just come here this afternoon? Could it be that he had investigated so much in less than twelve hours?
This made him wonder if this person came here today just for him.

But this shouldn't be the case. He just took office this morning. He doesn't think his family has been noticed by the higher-ups, let alone that they deserve attention. Wu Boliang didn't know at this moment that even though he was willing to blow himself up here, his wife was about to create a huge mess for him.

What happened in the county bureau compound also reached the ears of Guo Xiaolong, who happened to be on duty at the station that night.

When he heard that his brother had been arrested and that old scores were being brought up, he immediately became anxious. He said hello to his subordinates at the station, rode his tricycle and rushed to his eldest sister's house, that is, Wu Boliang's house.

When he arrived here and opened the door, he realized that his brother-in-law did not come back tonight, but was on standby in the bureau. Only then did he realize that the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau was personally directing the case tonight, so there was no way his brother-in-law would come back.

Moreover, now the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau has demanded a thorough investigation into the illegal and disorderly activities that his younger brother Guo Xiaohu has committed. It is even a question whether his brother-in-law will be able to come back in the future.

"Brother, what's the matter with you being so anxious in the middle of the night?"

After welcoming her elder brother into the house, Guo Xiaoyan, with sleepy eyes, asked with a lot of question marks on her mind.

"Something happened, Xiaoyan."

"What happened?" Guo Xiaoyan immediately came to her senses when she heard that something had happened.

"A newly appointed deputy director of our municipal bureau came here in person to supervise the bloody incident that occurred in Qiaonan Commune last night. I didn't expect that Xiaohu was also involved in this case."

"What?" Guo Xiaoyan almost jumped up.

The case that happened in Qiaonan Commune had spread all over the county this afternoon, and it became more and more bizarre. Regardless of whether it was bizarre or not, she immediately became anxious when she heard that her brother was involved in the case.

"How is Xiaohu related to this case?"

"I don't know why he is related to this case. The person in charge of his trial is a deputy captain of our team. No specific details have been released. That's not what I want to talk about now."

"What is that? Is there anything more important than Xiaohu?" Guo Xiaoyan was even more confused.

"Xiaoyan, what I'm going to say next is also related to Xiaohu. The deputy director of the Municipal Bureau has already ordered a thorough investigation of the illegal and disorderly things that Xiaohu has done."

"what?"

Guo Xiaoyan was completely dumbfounded by what her brother said. She stood there for a long time before she came to her senses and asked anxiously.

"How could this happen? Didn't he come here to investigate the case in Qiaonan Commune? Why did he think of investigating Xiaohu again?"

As an older sister, she knows best how many illegal things her younger brother has done. In the past two years, she has been there to clean up his mess.

So, when she heard the leaders of the municipal bureau demand a thorough investigation of her brother, she suddenly became panicked.

"I don't know. If you ask me, I don't know how to answer your question." Guo Xiaolong spread his hands and said, "Xiaoyan, I came here to discuss with you how to solve this matter, not to study why that leader would think of investigating Xiaohu for no reason.

Now the three leaders of our bureau, Director Lin, Political Commissar Deng and Director Wang, have started to organize Xiaohu's materials overnight and will hand them over to the deputy director by eight o'clock at the latest.

Xiaoyan, you should know that we don’t have much time left. When that time comes, not to mention whether Xiaohu can come back, even Boliang can’t come back, and…”

Guo Xiaolong stopped talking here, his expression had become extremely solemn: "And I estimate that before noon, we will be taken away.

What I mean is, you should hurry up and find your father-in-law and tell him about this matter. There is also Boliang’s matter involved. I think your father-in-law will definitely find a way.”

"He will find a way? Haha..." Hearing her elder brother mention her father-in-law, Guo Xiaoyan smiled coldly: "He will find a way, but he will only find a way for his son. As for the three of us, I can guarantee that he will definitely push all the problems onto us, and his son will definitely be clueless and pretend to know nothing."

"No way, Xiaoyan, after all, you gave birth to two grandchildren for the Wu family. That old man shouldn't be so heartless, right? And you said that Boliang would put all the blame on you. How is that possible?"

"Brother, do you know the Wu family better than I do? Let me tell you this: anyone who might stand in the way of the Wu family, no matter who they are, will be kicked away by that old man."

Hearing his sister say this, Guo Xiaolong frowned tightly. He knew that his sister's father-in-law was indeed very careful about his reputation, but he didn't expect that he would be so careful.

Just when he was about to say something, Guo Xiaoyan's eyes rolled. Before her brother could speak, she continued, "Brother, if something happens to Deputy Director Li, will there be no one to take care of Xiaohu for a while?"

???

Guo Xiaolong was slightly startled by what the elder sister said. He didn't quite understand what she meant by "something happened". He asked blankly, "What do you mean? What could possibly happen to Deputy Director Li?"

"Nothing will happen to him. Can we create something for him?"

"You are crazy!"

Guo Xiaolong stood up in an instant and looked at his sister in horror: "Do you know who he is? He's the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau. How dare you go after him? Don't you want to live anymore?"

"If nothing happens to him, will we be alive?" Guo Xiaoyan looked at her elder brother steadily and asked softly with a calm expression.

"Uh..." Guo Xiaolong's breathing suddenly stagnated due to his sister's question, and his body couldn't help but tremble twice.

Yes, if they don’t take any unconventional measures, will they be fine?

But do they really want to take such a risk?

Perhaps Guo Xiaoyan noticed her brother's hesitation, so she continued, "Brother, do you think we have any way out now? We can only try to save ourselves. If we try, we may still have a chance of survival. But if we do nothing, we will really be waiting to die."

"What are you going to do?" After hesitating for a while, Guo Xiaolong lit a cigarette and asked with a heavy expression.

"Xiaoyan, you are not planning to..." As he said this, he raised his right hand, with his thumb raised, index finger and middle finger extended, while his ring finger and little finger were retracted, making a gesture.

Guo Xiaoyan understood what her brother meant by that gesture. She shook her head and said, "We definitely can't do that kind of thing. Just like what you said just now, he is the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau after all. If we dare to do that, we will be courting death. I just plan to find something for him to do so that he has no time to worry about investigating Xiaohu."

"Tell me your plan."

"Brother, what do you think is the most taboo for cadres like him?"

"What's the most taboo? Uh... You really stumped me. I've never dealt with cadres at that level. Our county director and county leaders are all lower than them."

"Then if you do something about the relationship between men and women, will it make him feel overwhelmed?"

"Xiaoyan, please explain it clearly." Guo Xiaolong perked up and prepared to listen to his sister's explanation. He had not yet figured out how to manipulate matters between men and women.

"Brother, where will he stay tonight?" Guo Xiaoyan asked without explaining to her brother.

"If he's staying, it must be the County Government Guest House, but when I came over just now, he seemed to be still in our bureau."

"Can you find out the house he was given?"

"That's for sure. I have a good relationship with the director of the county government guesthouse. I should be able to find out the answer by asking him."

"Then you should ask now, this point should be okay, right?"

"No problem, I'll call him."

Wu Boliang was the captain of the public security brigade and there was a telephone installed at home for easy communication. Guo Xiaolong walked over, picked up the phone and dialed the number.

He did have a good relationship with the director of the guesthouse. He was not angry when he called him so late at night. He even helped him find out the room number of the house that the county bureau had reserved for Li Yancheng.

The director thought that his friend was planning to visit the deputy director of the municipal bureau, so he spoke without asking any further questions. If he knew that his friend was planning to harm the deputy director of the municipal bureau, he didn't know how he would react.
