In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong!

Following closely behind was Wu Chunlin, the Minister of Organization.

"This is not the first time Chen Hai has conducted an investigation without authorization. He was suspended from his post for failing to report to the Provincial Party Committee last time, and he was only recently reinstated. Now he has committed the same offense again. I think Comrade Chen Hai is not suitable to work in the Anti-Corruption Bureau."

Wu Chunlin's words weren't too harsh; he was just stating facts and providing evidence.

"I agree with Minister Chunlin's opinion!"

Although Comrade Chen Hai has not committed any other violations of rules or regulations and his party principles are up to standard, he just can't shake his habit of acting in private. What Secretary Sha and Comrade Chen Luo said earlier is very true. For comrades who make mistakes for the first time, our provincial party committee should give them a chance to correct their mistakes and start anew.

But Chen Hai has already committed a second offense, so such a comrade cannot continue to remain in such an important position in the Anti-Corruption Bureau!

"As long as there is a kind and benevolent face, there should also be a fierce and wrathful one. That's my opinion."

After Tian Guofu finished speaking, everyone looked at Gao Yuliang.

After all, everyone knows that Chen Hai is Gao Yuliang's student.

Gao Yuliang had originally intended to stand by and watch, but seeing this, he had no choice but to speak up.

Why is everyone staring at me like that?

Do you think that because I, Gao Yuliang, was Chen Hai's teacher, I will always favor him?

That would be a huge mistake. Hou Liangping was also one of my former students. When Hou Liangping met Secretary Sha, he said, "I love my teacher, but I love the truth more." As a student, I know this principle, and as his teacher, I certainly cannot fall behind.

Regardless of Chen Hai's motives, what he did was wrong, and I support any decision made by the Provincial Party Committee!

Sha Ruijin frowned as he listened. How could Gao Yuliang know what Hou Liangping was reporting?

But now is not the time to talk about these things.

"Comrade Chen Luo, you are the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. What are your thoughts?"

Sha Ruijin relinquished the final decision-making power to Chen Luo, which can be seen as a way of currying favor.

Chen Luo nodded and spoke.

"Comrade Chen Hai is indeed not suitable to continue working in the Anti-Corruption Bureau, but there are currently no vacancies in the political and legal system. The final decision rests with Secretary Sha!"

Chen Luo pushed the issue to Sha Ruijin in a tai chi-like manner.

Seeing this, Sha Ruijin had no choice but to make the decision himself.

"Therefore, Comrade Chen Hai will first be given a major demerit, and at the same time, he will be removed from his position as deputy director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Handong Provincial Procuratorate."

Hearing this, everyone frowned. Sha Ruijin had shown leniency. However, everyone was also aware of the relationship between Sha Ruijin and Chen Yanshi. As long as Chen Hai was dismissed, everyone would turn a blind eye.

After the meeting ended, Sha Ruijingang returned to his office, and Secretary Bai walked in.

"Secretary Sha, this is a document handed over by Chief Prosecutor Ji."

The document was handed to Secretary Bai by Ji Changming during the Standing Committee meeting. Sha Ruijin nodded and opened the document to read it. The content of the document was very simple. It was about Chen Hai's accusation that Hou Liangping had instigated the incident. Although there was no evidence, Ji Changming still compiled it into a document and handed a copy to Sha Ruijin privately.

After reading the whole thing, Sha Ruijin could guess that it was probably Hou Liangping who secretly instructed Chen Hai, but without evidence, who could say anything?

"Hou Liangping is really... ruthless!"

Sha Ruijin smiled faintly. He wasn't afraid of Hou Liangping's ruthlessness, but rather that Hou Liangping wouldn't dare to do it. Any underhanded tricks or dirty tricks were good as long as they could help him achieve his goal!

Office of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission.

As soon as Chen Luo returned, his secretary Liu Mingyu told him that Lu Yike had just called, but Chen Luo was in a meeting and didn't have time to answer.

Lu Yike's voice came through after the call was dialed back.

"Secretary Chen!"

"Comrade Yike, you can just say it directly."

"That's right, Secretary Chen. Jinghai Qiangsheng Group has now fully confessed to all its illegal and criminal activities over the years, and the reporters from the Publicity Department who accompanied them have already edited the information into a video."

I'd like to ask if you need it sent to Jingzhou.

"So fast?"

"Yes, it's fast. Most of the footage is actual filming, so editing isn't difficult."

"I understand. Have someone send it to Jingzhou. I will contact Minister Yang to arrange the broadcast."

However, the broadcast time will probably have to wait until you finish investigating the situation in Lincheng.

"Yes, Secretary Chen. Regarding the situation in Lincheng, the six investigation teams have already made some progress. I will take the three investigation teams from Jinghai to Lincheng tomorrow."

"Okay, you all need to be careful too."

"Thank you, Secretary Chen!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Luo began to systematically arrange the work of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission.

Before he knew it, it was time to get off work. When Li Dakang got home, he saw that Ouyang Qing had prepared dinner and was waiting for him.

This startled Li Dakang.

"Weren't you cooperating with the provincial discipline inspection commission's investigation?"

Li Dakang was very puzzled.

"The investigation is over, the 500,000 yuan has been fully refunded, and I have been expelled from the Party and dismissed from my public office. Secretary Tian said that considering my voluntary surrender and good attitude, I will not be transferred to the judicial authorities."

Li Dakang nodded after hearing this.

"You don't have to go this far."

Pointing to the food on the table, Li Dakang still couldn't understand.

"What? You don't want to eat? This is the last time I'll cook for you to thank you. We're divorced now, and I've been expelled from the Party and dismissed from my public office. I plan to go abroad to be with Jiajia for a while, and then we'll return to China together next year."

Sitting at the table and picking up his rice bowl, Li Dakang ate with relish, though it wasn't actually that delicious.

It was actually not as good as his cousin's cooking, but the key point was that it was made by Ouyang Qing herself. Li Dakang hadn't eaten it for years, and it was the first time since his daughter went abroad.

After finishing their meal, Li Dakang helped clear the table, and then Ouyang Qing handed over two cards.

"Here are your salary card and housing provident fund card. We're divorced now, so I'm returning them to you."

Li Dakang did not accept the card. Ever since he was promoted to the deputy director-general level, he had been giving his salary card to Ouyang Qing for use. Over the years, he had gotten used to it.

"Take this and use it. You just returned 500,000 yuan, and you can't find a job abroad for the time being. If you take it, Jiajia and you will have some financial ease."

"Are you stupid? This is your salary card. Do you think I can take it abroad?"

As for Jiajia and me, like you said, I've saved a considerable amount from my salary and bonuses over the years, so you don't need to worry.

After a moment of silence, Li Dakang took the card.

He then said, "I'll keep this for now and give it to you and Jiajia when you get back."

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Qing smiled.

"Okay, I'll give it to Jiajia then."

The arguments stopped after the divorce.

Husbands and wives are like birds in the same forest; when disaster strikes, they fly away separately. Only when they don't fly away separately is true affection revealed.

Li Dakang hardened his heart his whole life, but ultimately couldn't hold on any longer. That's normal; even saints have selfish desires...

The matter of Ouyang Qing was hastily concluded, but the matter of Dafeng Factory had only just begun, and Hou Liangping had already set his sights on the others behind it.

At the same time, Chen Hai's dismissal notice was also issued. On the day he left the procuratorate, Chen Yanshi personally came to pick him up.

The father and son stopped as they left the procuratorate, taking a deep look at the location of the anti-corruption bureau before getting into their car and driving away!
