Chapter 11 Section 11

In the three days after the "August 13th" fire, Wang Changgong never left Changshan, nor did he get a full night's sleep.After three days and three nights of busy work, Wang Changgong's eyes were swollen, his walking was shaking, and he was exhausted to the extreme.However, it is precisely because there is such a brave and responsible member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the Executive Deputy Governor standing in the front line, the life of the Changshan Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government is slightly easier.Faced with the leaders of the relevant central departments who rushed to Changshan to understand the situation and guide the work, Wang Changgong, with a heavy heart, made self-criticisms on behalf of the provincial party committee and the provincial government time and time again, and took the initiative to assume leadership responsibilities. The cadres left a very deep impression.

On the afternoon of August 16, according to the spirit of the latest instructions from the leaders of the Central Committee and the State Council, the Provincial Party Committee held a Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee to study the "August 13" fire, and Wang Changgong dragged his exhausted body to prepare to leave.Before he left, he was still not at ease, so he called Changjiang Zhengliu of the Public Security Bureau and Chief Prosecutor Ye Zijing to listen to the latest report on the case. The reporting place is Wang Changgong's suite at Xijiao Hotel.Before the report began, Wang Changgong also gave some instructions to the comrades in the coordination team on the aftermath of the victims of the fire.After a long time, Ye Zijing still remembered that the spirit of Wang Changgong's instructions at that time was: to be more flexible when formulating the aftermath plan, to maximize the compensation and pension policy for the families of the victims, and not to deal with ordinary casualties.

After the comrades in the coordination team left, Wang Changgong first said a few words on this topic, and his mood was obviously not good: "Stability is the most important thing, let's spend money to eliminate the disaster first! In the past few days, two more seriously injured people have passed away, and the death toll has reached One hundred and fifty-six people, their immediate family members, relatives and friends at least thousands of people, their emotions must be considered! They must not be allowed to go to the provincial capital or Beijing to make group visits and complain. It was said at the meeting!"

Ye Zijing and Jiang Zhengliu nodded in agreement, but did not discuss this topic further - one of them is the chief of the public security bureau, and the other is the chief prosecutor. Wang Changgong seemed to see what they were thinking, and leaned back on the sofa: "What about you, there is also a problem of active cooperation. You must cooperate with relevant departments to do a good job in the work of the families of the victims. You must subdue criminals and warn and educate the masses. , but also to expand the social effect of handling cases, turn passivity into initiative, and maintain the stability of the social and political situation!"

It can be seen that Wang Changgong is exhausted physically and mentally at this time, and is actually trying to support himself. Ye Zijing and Jiang Zhengliu didn't dare to say more, they responded in succession, asking Wang Changgong and the provincial party committee to rest assured. Only then did Wang Changgong wave his hand: "Okay, tell me about the latest progress of the case!" Jiang Zhengliu reported, and explained the facts of the arson confessed by Zha Tiezhu and the circumstances of the filing of the case, and insisted that Zhou Peicheng was also suspected of participating in the arson: "—However, Zhou Peicheng has not yet filed a case for alleged arson, but for perjury case, the procuratorate is more cautious and thinks it may be safer to do so.”

Wang Changgong said: "It is right to be cautious, so as not to be passive in the future! The right to handle the case is in our hands, and Zhou Peicheng is now under our control. It will not be too late to file a case for arson if there is evidence of arson in the future!" Turning the subject around, he said again, "But Comrade Zijing, this case must be dealt with quickly!" Ye Zijing reported: "Governor Wang, we have been holding on to this case very closely. Now all our comrades are working day and night at the Xijiao Hotel. Today I told you two things at the meeting: one is that something special needs to be done. Special handling, the second is to file and finalize the case according to law. We have been actively cooperating with Director Jiang in the investigation work. Those who should file a case have been filed, and those who should be arrested have also been arrested; the provincial procuratorate also attaches great importance to it. report."

Wang Changgong was quite satisfied, and rubbed his sleepy eyelids and said, "Okay, okay, it seems that you two, the public security and the prosecutors, are cooperating well, that's good! To tell you the truth, I was a little worried at first, afraid that some comrades would Disregarding the overall situation, intentionally or unintentionally adding chaos to the provincial and municipal committees, there are no such signs, so we must be vigilant!" Ye Zijing's heart tightened, and she immediately thought of the old leader Chen Hanjie and a series of unexpected behaviors of Chen Hanjie after the fire. Chen Hanjie, who played the horizontal cannon, was probably pointing at her—after all, she was Chen Hanjie's chief prosecutor when he was the secretary of the municipal party committee, and in the eyes of Wang Changgong and some cadres and masses in Changshan City, she was Chen Hanjie's person.

Wang Changgong stopped, and didn't go on: "Comrade Zhengliu, Comrade Zijing, you must be clear, the focus of our attention at present is two things, one is to properly handle the issue of compensation for the victims; This case was settled in accordance with the law to appease the anger of the families of the victims! Now there are many rumors in the society, and many citizens seem to know that they set fire to it, and they all demand that the murderer be severely punished. Therefore, Comrade Zijing, your procuratorate can't follow the steps, you have to do it really Go to the Special Affairs Office and prosecute the arson criminals as soon as possible!"

Ye Zijing understood the former mayor's mood: old partner Chen Hanjie was watching over there, and the chief prosecutor who handled the case was Chen Hanjie's, Wang Changgong would not be without ideas.Therefore, Ye Zijing didn't emphasize the difficulties, and didn't give any explanation, she just said: "Okay, Governor Wang, I will definitely take your instruction back and study it with my comrades, make full use of legal policies, and try to solve the problem in the shortest time Prosecute the criminals suspected of arson!" Wang Changgong nodded, and then instructed: "We must also pay attention to strict case handling discipline and keep secrets. Once the case is broken, how can the society know it immediately? Why so fast? There are sudden killings, and the provincial and municipal committees They are very passive! The procuratorate should pay attention to confidentiality issues, and the public security bureau should also pay attention, especially the public security bureau!"

Jiang Zhengliu explained: "The rumors in the society are probably speculations, and the theory of arson has long existed!" Wang Changgong glanced at Jiang Zhengliu with displeasure: "Guess? Are you guessing so accurately? You must be politically vigilant, find out and give feedback on the trends and circumstances of this case in a timely manner, and strive to firmly grasp the initiative in handling the case!" Jiang Zhengliu said that he would convey and carry out the spirit of this important instruction of Wang Changgong immediately after returning. What Ye Zijing didn't expect was that Wang Changgong then changed the subject and asked about the specifics of the case: "Why did I hear that the owner of the Rich Man Entertainment City was the one, ah, Su Hefu was also burned to death by this fire? Three Days have passed, why didn't you report such an important situation? Comrade Zhengliu, Comrade Zijing, tell me!"

Ye Zijing felt that it was inconvenient for her to explain, and she might not be able to explain it clearly, so she turned her attention to Jiang Zhengliu. After all, Jiang Zhengliu was the cadre that Wang Changgong singled out. He didn't take this question with obvious dissatisfaction seriously at all, and explained with a smile: "Governor Wang, don't get me wrong. The focus of our three days is not to put Was it on the direct perpetrators like Zha Tiezhu and Zhou Peicheng? I didn’t care much about the dereliction of duty, so I discussed with Ye Jian and decided to keep Su Afu’s death a secret for the time being. Well!" Wang Changgong stared at Jiang Zhengliu: "Is this Su Afu really dead? Is it true?" Jiang Zhengliu said: "It's true, it was burnt to death. Both Ye Jian and I have personally inspected the body." Ye Zijing also confirmed: "Yes, Governor Wang, we will never get this wrong!" Wang Changgong pondered for a while: "This matter still needs to be reported, and you should report it to the municipal party committee as soon as possible!" He then instructed, "The issue of dereliction of duty should also be investigated to the end. If there is no issue of dereliction of duty, the consequences of setting fire to it will not be so serious!" Ye Zijing reported in a timely manner: "Governor Wang, we are already investigating the dereliction of duty. The first batch of six criminal suspects have been filed and detained. It was just yesterday. It is estimated that there will be more arrests soon." Wang Changgong was quite pleased: "That's good! Comrade Zijing, you are the chief prosecutor. You must give full play to the legal supervision of the procuratorial department and the investigation and handling of job-related crimes, and thoroughly investigate and punish those responsible for the consequences of arson. The dereliction of duty criminals in the department must also give a satisfactory explanation to the people in this regard!" Ye Zijing smiled wryly and said: "Governor Wang, this kind of case is more difficult, and it is not as easy to investigate as the direct cause of the fire. We can't say that we did not act quickly, but there are still collusion, alteration, and falsification of evidence..." Wang Changgong said: "For those who alter evidence, practice falsification, and resist investigation and punishment, they can be dealt with severely within the scope allowed by the law! However, Comrade Zijing, I also want to remind you, maybe you know it well: the cadre team in Changshan The situation is more complicated, and there are some grievances and grievances in history, you, the chief prosecutor, must pay attention, you must not handle the case with subjective emotions, let alone make everyone feel insecure and panic, you must discuss the facts!" This is both a reminder and a warning, an unmistakable warning. Ye Zijing thought for a while, and expressed her attitude sincerely: "Governor Wang, if one day, you and the provincial party committee find that I deviate from party discipline and state laws, you can consider removing me. I will never complain. real!" Wang Changgong smiled kindly: "Comrade Zijing, are you serious?" Then he said kindly, "Take a message to Lao Chen for me, please don't be so excited, such a big thing happened in Changshan, whose fault is it?" You don’t look good! Is it just embarrassing me and Tang Zhaoyang? Isn’t he embarrassing? He used to be the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and now he is still the director of the Municipal People’s Congress. Doesn’t he have any responsibilities? I just admit that I have leadership responsibilities. Everyone who met me in a few days will criticize me!" Obviously, Wang Changgong regarded Ye Zijing as Chen Hanjie's spokesperson. After saying this, before Ye Zijing had anything to say, he asked the secretary Xiaoduan to take out two small pots of tea and put them in front of Ye Zijing: "Comrade Zijing , This is the new Longjing that the Zhejiang Provincial Party and Government Delegation sent to our province last month. I have been keeping it for Lao Chen. You can bring it to Lao Chen for me! Please pay more attention to his body and stop being boring Sulking over trivial matters!" Ye Zijing was very uncomfortable, but she had no choice but to put the tea in her handbag. What Ye Zijing didn't expect was that Wang Changgong severely criticized Jiang Zhengliu: "Comrade Zhengliu, what's the matter with you? Huh? Why did you suddenly focus on Chen Xiaomu? What is Chen Xiaomu involved in? What are your comrades doing?" What kind of evidence do you have? It's a mess, no wonder Lao Chen has such a big opinion of your Public Security Bureau!" Jiang Zhengliu was obviously unprepared. He was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly reported, "Governor Wang, Chen Xiaomu really has gang problems. He opened a Xiaomu restaurant on Fuxing Road, mixed with some dubious people, bullied the market, and There was a stabbing incident with a knife, and the victim is still lying in the hospital, it’s impossible not to catch him!” Wang Changgong said displeasedly: "It's a fight! Hasn't it been detained for a few days? Let it go!" Jiang Zhengliu seemed to be in a difficult situation: "Governor Wang, this... I'm afraid it won't work, the victim won't agree!" He glanced at Ye Zijing, "Ye Jian happened to be here too, so I'll tell you the truth, I'm afraid I will file a case for prosecution ..." Wang Changgong couldn't hold back anymore, he looked at Jiang Zhengliu, then at Ye Zijing: "Filing a case to sue? Comrade Zijing, are you really suing? What would Old Chen think? How will you Ye Zijing face Lao Chen? " Ye Zijing didn't know the inside story of the case, so she said vaguely: "Governor Wang, this case hasn't been transferred yet!" Wang Changgong slapped Jiang Zhengliu: "Then don't transfer it. Your Public Security Bureau will do your job, let Chen Xiaomu and the others pay more money, and ask the victim to withdraw the lawsuit! I know this Chen Xiaomu, and it has always given Lao Chen a terrible headache!" Jiang Zhengliu didn't dare to insist any longer, and said with a bitter face, "Okay, Governor Wang, let's do our best!" Before leaving, Wang Changgong emphasized that criminals who seriously endanger public safety cannot be tolerated by any country or social system. Cha Tiezhu who set the fire should be prosecuted as soon as possible and killed early and publicly! Wang Changgong's three consecutive "kill" words left a deep impression on Ye Zijing.
