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

boom!

Ji Changming's words stunned Chen Hai instantly.

"What do you mean! Hou Liangping is trying to shift the blame onto me?"

"Ji Jian, you have to believe me! I really only investigated Ouyang Qing on my own because Hou Liangping told me to!"

Ji Changming sighed.

"I don't care who's telling the truth and who's lying, where's the evidence?"

I have no evidence, but I do know that you investigated Ouyang Qing and were arrested on the spot by the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau.

Do you understand?

In an instant, Chen Hai felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"I...I have evidence, phone calls! Yes, I have call records with Hou Liangping, Inspector Ji, you can have someone check it and everything will be clear!"

Ji Changming shook his head.

"Your mobile phone technology department has investigated and confirmed that you and Hou Liangping did have a conversation, but the conversation was not recorded or backed up, and no useful information can be found."

With his last glimmer of hope shattered, tears welled up in Chen Hai's eyes, a testament to the pain of being betrayed by his brothers.

He was saddened by the impending disciplinary action from the provincial party committee, and also stimulated by the tingling, numb pain in his body.

"Hahaha, Hou Liangping! You're ruthless!"

Chen Hai burst into laughter, his face turning red with anger, his eyes becoming bloodshot, and he quickly lost consciousness.

"Sigh, they don't even know how to leave a record at work, serves them right!"

Ji Changming stood up immediately, realizing that continuing the interrogation was pointless. Regardless of whether Hou Liangping had instructed it or not, without evidence, Ji Changming dared not implicate Hou Liangping.

However, Ji Changming also harbored resentment towards Hou Liangping's unscrupulous methods. Such a person might very well scheme against him in the future, and he, as the chief prosecutor, had to be careful!

After leaving the interrogation room, Ji Changming began writing a report.

The news of Chen Hai's unauthorized investigation of Ouyang Qing and Ouyang Qing's decision to surrender spread throughout the entire officialdom of Handong in almost a day.

The provincial party committee members were shocked and called Sha Ruijin's secretary to demand that the matter be dealt with seriously!

Everyone agrees that this kind of thing can only happen once, and it cannot be allowed to happen a second time!

Who can guarantee that the area under their buttocks is 100% clean?

Such unbridled private investigations could lead to serious problems if something is uncovered.

Besides, even if an investigation were to be launched, you are all centrally-managed cadres, and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection would be involved in the investigation. What right does it have to be the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Procuratorate?

Jingzhou First People's Hospital.

Huang Limin had just returned to Handong when he heard about Chen Hai's situation, and he also found out that Chen Yanshi was recuperating in the hospital.

Having known each other for decades, Huang Limin decided to come and take a good look at Chen Yanshi!

By the way, tell Chen Yanshi about this good news regarding Chen Hai!

Chapter 80 Chen Yanshi, a worthy opponent

Leaning on a cane and wearing gold-rimmed glasses, Huang Weimin carried a pale yellow plastic bag in his other hand.

As soon as I arrived at Chen Yanshi's ward, before I even pushed the door open, I heard Chen Yanshi inside saying that his son hadn't visited him for several days.

After a slight smile, Huang Weimin pushed open the ward door.

"Comrade Chen Yanshi, it's been years since we last met. I never imagined you'd become famous again. For the sake of the workers at Dafeng Factory, you willingly broke both your arms. You truly deserve to be called the man who could carry a bomb back then!"

A familiar voice, tinged with sarcasm.

One second Chen Yanshi was muttering to himself, the next he sat up straight on the hospital bed like two bulls meeting on a narrow road, staring at Huang Weimin with wide eyes.

Huang Weimin was not to be outdone, maintaining a smile as he met Chen Yanshi's gaze.

About a minute later...

"Alright, alright, Comrade Chen Yanshi, I'm not trying to criticize you, but you've already broken both arms and you still won't listen to the doctor's advice. Before we know it, we're all in our seventies and eighties. People have to accept getting old."

Don't push yourself too hard. It's only a hundred days to recover from a serious injury, and I'm really afraid you'll get excited and cause an accident.

I'll feel really bad about it..."

Huang Weimin showed no leniency towards Chen Yanshi.

Both retired in the same year, and Huang Weimin even retired at the deputy provincial level, making him two years older than Chen Yanshi.

Why should we hold back when communicating with our peers?

"I think you're up to no good, like a weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken!"

Chen Yan's face turned red with anger, but he still lay down and didn't continue to hold on.

Huang Weimin sat down on the chair next to the hospital bed and then placed the bag he had brought on the table.

"If you insist on saying that, then I'll accept it. My surname is Huang, so if you say I'm a weasel, then I am. But Comrade Chen Yanshi, you're not a chicken."

Oh, I see, you really are a chicken!

The notorious miser of Handong!

Back then, you publicized the whole "Secretary Lichun using air conditioning" incident so much. You were strict with Secretary Lichun, but you treated your precious Dafeng Factory project like your own son, giving it all the policy support you needed. How come you, a standing chief prosecutor, aren't upholding judicial fairness, but instead getting involved in economic development?

Chen Yanshi felt a bit annoyed.

"You don't know anything!"

Huang Weimin's smile immediately lit up when he saw Chen Yanshi's appearance.

"Yes, yes, I'm just an organization minister, so I naturally don't know much about things like economic development."

"You, coming from the prosecutor's office, must know the ropes best, right?"

After giving Chen Yanshi a disapproving look, Huang Weimin looked around.

"By the way, where is Comrade Fuzhen?"

You know what, I've been away in Jinghai for several years and I really miss Comrade Fuzhen.

Fuzhen and I were childhood sweethearts, but unfortunately she secretly ran away from home to join the revolution, while my family supported my participation. It's unforgettable!

Huang Weimin brought up the core trigger, and the anger in Chen Yanshi's eyes had become tangible.

Why did Chen Yanshi and Huang Weimin dislike each other back then? One reason was that Huang Weimin disagreed with Chen Yanshi's decision to retire at the provincial party committee meeting; another reason was that Huang Weimin and Wang Fuzhen were childhood sweethearts, like brothers next door, and Chen Yanshi was always worried that the two would rekindle their old feelings.

"Hmph! Fuzhen went to make me chicken soup. Unlike you, my spouse passed away early, and I have to go to Jinghai alone to recuperate!"

The smile on Huang Weimin's face faded slightly.

"Oh right, I've forgotten all about it. I came to see you because there's something else I wanted to tell you."

Just before I came in, I heard you complaining that your nephew Chen Hai hadn't come to see you. Actually, your son didn't do it on purpose; he's in a tough spot himself!

? ? ? ? ?

Chen Yanshi was stunned for a moment, then pressed, "What do you mean? Explain yourself!"

Huang Weimin sighed and said, "I only heard about it after I returned to Jingzhou. Your son is just as bold as you were back then."

It is outrageous that a deputy director of the anti-corruption bureau of the procuratorate dared to follow and privately investigate the wife of Li Dakang, a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee. This is a serious case of disorganization and lack of discipline!

What's even more embarrassing is that he was caught red-handed by the staff of the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau. I heard that the Handong Provincial Party Committee is very angry, and your son is probably going to lose his position as deputy director!

"Wait a minute, I remember your son became a bureau chief a few years ago. How could his position keep going down the ranks?"

Chen Yanshi felt a little short of breath...

Upon seeing this, Huang Weimin immediately stood up.

"Comrade Chen Yanshi, are you alright?"

Oh dear, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have said it, but you insisted on asking, and I couldn't lie to you.

Okay, I'll call the doctor over for you. Hang in there!

If you old rascal are gone, I'll have to take care of Fuzhen myself.

As he spoke, Huang Weimin calmly pressed the emergency call button on the wall. Soon, a doctor came over and gave Chen Yanshi medicine and some remedies to help him recover.

At this point, Huang Weimin also planned to leave.

"Comrade Chen Yanshi, I bought some fruit and put it on your table. Be sure to eat it soon, these bananas are all ripe and yellow, they'll just rot if you don't eat them soon!"

I'm off now, no need to thank me. I've moved next door to you, so we can see each other anytime!

After speaking, Huang Weimin walked out of the ward looking refreshed, leaving Chen Yanshi, who had just felt a little better, struggling to breathe again.

After finally recovering, Chen Yanshi shakily reached out and picked up his phone from the table, then found Gao Yuliang's number and dialed it.

Gao Yuliang, who was reviewing documents in the deputy secretary's office in the provincial party committee building, received a call and immediately understood the purpose of the call when he saw that it was from Chen Yanshi.

After taking a deep breath, Gao Yuliang decided to answer the call anyway.

"Hey, Mr. Chen!"

"Yuliang, I heard that Haizi is going to be punished by the provincial party committee? My Haizi is not that kind of person. He must have been misled by someone. Yes, maybe it's Hou Liangping!"

Yuliang, you must speak up for Haizi!

As expected, Chen Yanshi's call was about this matter. Gao Yuliang paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Old Chen, I only just learned about this matter. The specific situation is still under investigation. The investigation is being handled by Comrade Ji Changming. I am no longer the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, so Comrade Ji Changming may not be willing to find out the truth."

Passing the buck to Ji Changming was Gao Yuliang's way of dealing with the situation. He couldn't possibly offend the other Standing Committee members for the sake of Chen Hai, could he? If he did, Gao Yuliang would be truly insane!

Unfortunately, Chen Yanshi was too angry to understand Gao Yuliang's implicit rejection and took it as a genuine suggestion.

"Ji Changming? I understand!"

Chen Yanshi quickly hung up the phone, ignoring the fact that both of his arms were in casts. He got out of bed and quietly left the hospital under the pretense of taking a walk, heading straight for the procuratorate!

At 2:40 p.m., Chen Yanshi got out of the taxi and stood in front of the procuratorate!

Chapter 81: People Leave and the Tea Grows Cold; Meeting Walls Everywhere

Upon entering, one can see that although Chen Yanshi has been retired for a long time, the staff of the procuratorate still recognize him.
