Chapter 21 nineteen

Wu Mianyun found Xia Zhongmin in the hospital.Xia Zhongmin had been waiting in the infirmary all the time, and he eagerly hoped that Tan Kang, who had been unconscious all the time, would be out of danger as soon as possible. Wu Mianyun knew about Xia Zhongmin during the huge smuggling case in Dianjiang three years ago.At that time, almost all leading cadres of the Dianjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government were investigated and questioned.There is only one exception, and this person is Xia Zhongmin.This was nothing short of a miracle in the case of large-scale smuggling in Dianjiang at that time!

Hearing this news, Wu Mianyun especially wanted to interview this young deputy secretary named Xia Zhongmin.However, during the interview, he discovered that among all the leading cadres of the Dianjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, Xia Zhongmin was the one who received the most accusations and scolding!It was too difficult for him to understand. Because of this, Wu Mianyun has been silently paying attention to this deputy secretary for several years.As long as he comes to Dianjiang once, he must try his best to have a serious chat with Xia Zhongmin. On the night when the fire broke out, Wu Mianyun and Qin Kang, deputy secretary of the Disciplinary Inspection of the Dianjiang Municipal Party Committee, sat and talked for almost the whole night. The situation about Dianjiang, including his views and evaluations of Xia Zhongmin, naturally became the main topic.Of course, it also involves the progress of the case.Including Qin Kang, no one expected that the joint investigation team would have such a big harvest in such a short period of time!

Wu Mianyun remembered that Qin Kang said very sadly at that time, why are cadres like Xia Zhongmin not only unable to be promoted, but also getting more and more difficult?In fact, it is also very simple: when a cadre falls into a certain interest group, if he wants to be responsible for the people, the party and the country, then he and the interest group will inevitably run counter to each other. He returned to the hotel from Qin Kang's place at two o'clock in the morning.Unexpectedly, after leaving for more than two hours, a thrilling fire broke out! It was already late at night, and he contacted Xia Zhongmin again, unexpectedly he had time this time.

In the hospital where Qin Kang was, the two sat face to face, and neither of them spoke for a long time. "You probably don't know. I called Tan Kang the night of the accident. I don't know why he didn't answer." Xia Zhongmin said this after a long time. "I don't know whether I should tell you." Wu Mianyun avoided Xia Zhongmin's gaze. "...Do you want to investigate my problem?" Xia Zhongmin asked softly. Wu Mianyun was silent for a while and said, "Yes. As long as there are no problems, there will definitely be a fair conclusion, and the cadres and the masses will have their own judgments."

"What's the use of that?" Xia Zhongmin said with a sigh, "After they have reached a conclusion, they will continue to spread rumors about you in private and continue to sue." "Then what do you ask the Disciplinary Inspection Commission to do? There are so many letters suing you, and they are constantly distributed upwards one after another. Can the Disciplinary Inspection Commission not investigate? If I were the Disciplinary Inspection Commission, I would investigate you too." "You are right." Xia Zhongmin did not refute. "Then what else are you afraid of?"

"Am I afraid? Look at my current situation, and look at Tan Kang and Zhang Jun lying in the hospital. What else is there to be afraid of?" Having said that, the two fell silent for a while. "Ma Weijin, deputy director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, do you understand?" "Of course I understand." Xia Zhongmin said solemnly. "He is a good comrade, conscientious, dedicated, and has a very harmonious relationship with his comrades. "What do you think of his suicide?" Wu Mianyun went straight to the point. Xia Zhongmin thought for a while, and then said word by word, "I can't understand his suicide. For a whole day, I have been thinking, as a member of the Communist Party, there are old people and young people, what problems can't be solved?" , why did you choose to commit suicide? I even scolded him and hated him in my heart! Ma Weijin, you are too cowardly! Your death is so meaningless, your death is lighter than a feather!"

"But some people say that Ma Weijin's death is directly related to you, because you have praised him many times, and you also hope that he can become the director of the municipal government office. Because of this, he has become the target of some cadres. It is also because In this way, he was affected, and this time he still failed to be promoted." "That's why I say his death doesn't make any sense!" "But isn't his death a struggle in some sense?" "No!" Xia Zhongmin became more and more angry. "Who knew he was fighting? Before a person died, facing the world, facing his relatives and colleagues, he didn't leave a word! Tell me, what is this fighting?"

"...That's it!" Wu Mianyun seemed to understand the reason for Xia Zhongmin's grief and anger. "How do you know he didn't leave a word?" "His office has been checked, and there is nothing in this regard." "Did he send it to his family in the form of a letter?" Wu Mianyun asked. "Maybe, but thinking about it the other way around, I think he won't." "why?" "He thinks too much, his mind is too heavy, he is afraid of hurting others, and he doesn't want to leave a burden for anyone. He didn't even come to me, and he didn't think about waiting for me. He must be right. I am disappointed, I am desperate for this society, it must be! The newly promoted director is about to take office, and he cannot face all this. He is too pessimistic, he would choose to commit suicide, and he did not leave a word for this world! "

"However, I heard people say that he stayed in the office that night. People said that he just wanted to wait for you. He had something to tell you. At four o'clock in the morning, he was still shouting at the door of your dormitory. You, I have called you many times, and many people have heard it." "...I have checked in my dormitory and found nothing. He didn't leave me anything. I don't understand why he is like this..." Wu Mianyun was stunned suddenly, at this time Xia Zhongmin had already burst into tears.
