Special forces soldier demobilization: Starting from the county government compound, a meteoric rise

The next morning, the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee convened an emergency meeting.

The meeting had only one theme.

—Preliminary investigation report on the suspected serious violations of discipline and law by Comrade Gou Tianming, Executive Deputy County Head.

The topic of this meeting was like a bombshell, causing chaos throughout the entire county government compound even before the meeting began.

Everyone knew something terrible had happened.

Gou Tianming, the second most powerful figure in Qingyun County after Secretary Li, is actually... about to fall?

How is that possible?

The atmosphere in the meeting room was so oppressive it was almost palpable.

All the Standing Committee members sat upright, their expressions serious and their eyes complex, and none of them dared to speak easily.

Gou Tianming also sat in his seat.

His chubby face, which usually wore a smile like that of Maitreya Buddha, was now completely devoid of color.

His forehead was covered in a fine layer of cold sweat, and the back of his shirt was already soaked with cold sweat.

He tried to remain calm, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed his extreme fear.

He couldn't understand it!

He just couldn't understand it!

My plan to escape last night was flawless.

Why did the police appear so suddenly, as if by divine intervention, precisely in that abandoned cement warehouse that even he himself had almost forgotten about?

Why is Zhang Aiguo, who should have been thrown into a cement mixer and turned to ashes, now sitting unharmed in the disciplinary committee's interview room?

So, which part of the process went wrong?

Just when he was completely baffled...

The meeting room door opened.

County Magistrate Wen Boyan and Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Bao Qingyun walked in side by side.

Both of them had an unprecedentedly grim and murderous aura on their faces!

Following closely behind them was a figure that surprised everyone present.

—Liu Ming!

He, a mere clerk who wasn't even a deputy section chief, actually attended this high-level meeting that would determine the future political direction of Qingyun County.

"Comrades, let's start the meeting."

Li Yuankui, as the top leader of the county party committee, tapped the table expressionlessly and announced the start of the meeting.

He glanced deeply at Liu Ming, who was sitting in the corner, his eyes filled with complex emotions and apprehension.

He knew he couldn't protect Gou Tianming today.

"Secretary Bao, please give us a briefing on the situation." Wen Boyan's voice was cold yet powerful.

"it is good."

Discipline Inspection Commission Secretary Bao Qingyun nodded.

He opened the folder in front of him and read aloud in a completely emotionless, businesslike tone:

"Last night, the county discipline inspection commission received an anonymous tip alleging that Gou Tianming, the executive deputy county head, misappropriated and embezzled a large sum of poverty alleviation funds three years ago, a serious offense!"

"Meanwhile, in the early hours of last night, the public security authorities successfully cracked another extremely heinous attempted kidnapping and murder case! The kidnapped victim was Comrade Zhang Aiguo, the head of the finance section of our county's finance bureau. Preliminary interrogation has pointed to... Comrade Gou Tianming as the mastermind behind it all!"

"boom!"

Although everyone here had more or less heard some rumors beforehand.

But when the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission personally confirmed these two major cases, and both pointed to the same person...

A collective gasp, barely suppressed, filled the conference room.

Embezzling poverty alleviation funds!

Kidnapping and murder!

Either of these two charges would be enough to ruin a deputy division-level cadre's career.

"Nonsense! This is a frame-up! This is blatant slander!"

Gou Tianming could no longer sit still.

He jumped up from his seat, pointed at Bao Qingyun, and roared hysterically, "Where's the evidence? Where's your evidence? You want to convict me based solely on an anonymous tip and a murderer's confession? This is political persecution!"

He is still making a last-ditch effort.

He bet that the other party didn't have the most direct evidence to definitively prove his innocence!

however……

"evidence?"

A calm voice rang out from the corner.

It's Liu Ming.

He slowly stood up, holding a small USB flash drive in his hand.

"County Chief Gou, I do have some of the evidence you requested."

Amidst everyone's astonished gazes, he walked straight to the front of the conference room and inserted the USB drive into the laptop connected to the huge projection screen.

"Liu Ming! What are you doing? This is the Standing Committee meeting! Do you have the right to speak? Get out!" Li Yuankui's face darkened instantly, and he shouted sternly.

He had a premonition that something bad was about to happen.

However, this time, before Liu Ming could even speak...

County Magistrate Wen Boyan suddenly slammed his hand on the table and stood up, publicly confronting this "local tyrant" who had been oppressing him for many years for the first time!

"Secretary Li! Comrade Liu Ming is the most important informant and witness in this case! He has the right to present the evidence he possesses here!"

"As the county head, I agree!"

"I agree too!" Bao Qingyun, the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, also stood up!

"I agree!"

"I agree!"

Suddenly, several Standing Committee members who usually remained neutral or even biased towards Li Yuankui raised their hands.

When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down!

Li Yuankui's face instantly turned extremely ugly.

He knew that all was lost!

He could only watch helplessly as Liu Ming pressed the switch on the projector.

Swish!

The huge screen lit up.

What appears above is an extremely complex chart of fund flows!

"Distinguished leaders, please take a look."

Liu Ming's voice was like a judge delivering a verdict, cold and authoritative.

"This is the complete trajectory of the poverty alleviation fund totaling eight million yuan from three years ago."

"Less than 500,000 of them were actually used for poverty alleviation projects in Heishi Township."

"The remaining 7.5 million was laundered through more than a dozen shell companies and hundreds of private accounts, and after countless complicated money laundering operations, it eventually flowed into three accounts."

"One of them is an account registered under Comrade Gou Tianming's mistress's name."

"One of them is the account of Comrade Gou Tianming in his son's home in Canada."

"And the last one..."

Liu Ming's gaze swept across the entire room, finally settling on the face of a Standing Committee member whose face was beginning to turn pale.

"...It's Director Wang's account from the Transportation Bureau."

Director Wang felt a sudden darkness before his eyes and almost fainted on the spot.

This is not over yet!

Liu Ming pressed the mouse.

Screen change!

A high-definition video with sound began to play.

The video shows Zhao Dezhu, Gou Tianming's confidant, confessing in the abandoned cement warehouse that he was instructed by Gou Tianming to kill someone to cover it up!

The picture is incredibly clear!

The sound was incredibly clear!

The proof is like a mountain!

"No...this isn't real...it's synthetic..."

Gou Tianming was still making a last, futile struggle.

However, Liu Ming was no longer prepared to give him any more chances.

He opened the last folder.

What's inside is...

The electronic ledgers containing all of Gou Tianming's embezzlement and bribery records over the years.

It is a high-definition recording of his power-for-money transactions with other officials.

It contained obscene chat logs and videos between him and his dozen or so mistresses.

……

One by one, case by case, item by item...

It appeared before everyone like a tidal wave.

The entire conference room was deathly silent.

Everyone was completely stunned by the evidence before them, which could be described as a "nuclear bomb" in officialdom.

They looked at the executive deputy county head, who was being nailed to the pillar of shame by countless pieces of evidence, their eyes filled with contempt and...fear!

What they feared even more was the devilish young man who had produced this evidence.

How did he manage to get his hands on things that even the Discipline Inspection Commission couldn't find?

Gou Tianming was completely dumbfounded.

Looking at his own ugly faces on the screen, he felt as if his soul had been drained.

His legs went weak and he collapsed completely into the chair, as if dead.

he knows.

I'm done.

Just then.

The heavy door to the conference room creaked open from the outside.

A middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit, with a resolute face and an aura of iron will, walked in, surrounded by a group of equally serious-looking discipline inspection cadres.

His gaze swept across the entire room like a sharp sword, finally settling on the distraught Gou Tianming.

Everyone present instinctively stood up from their seats when they saw him!

Because the person who came was none other than a stranger.

It is Zhao Rui, a member of the Standing Committee of the Ningzhou Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection!

Zhao Rui walked straight up to Gou Tianming, took out a piece of paper stamped with a bright red seal from his pocket, and pronounced the verdict in a cold, emotionless voice:

"Gou Tianming".

"Come with us."
