Chapter 21 Laofang county magistrate lost his beloved grandson

There was the sound of brakes coming from the yard. Just by hearing the menacing sound of brakes, one knew that the person who came was Deng Jiachun, member of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee and director of the Public Security Bureau. Seeing Hou Weidong waving upstairs, Deng Jiachun walked up. After entering the door, he glanced at Zeng Xiangang wearing sunglasses, and then turned his gaze to Zeng Xianyong. He had already recognized that the person who came was Qin Gan's partner. After reading the list, Deng Jiachun's dark and thin face became more tense, and he stared at Zeng Xianyong with penetrating eyes, which made Zeng Xianyong, who was not timid, subconsciously avoid his eyes.Zeng Xianyong had heard of Deng Jiachun's name a long time ago, and only now saw the murderous intent of the police chief.This short black old man created a high-pressure aura after entering the house, which put him under a lot of pressure.

Deng Jiachun took out a clean small card, which was not a business card, but only had a phone number on it: "This is my mobile phone, it is turned on 24 hours a day, and if you encounter problems, you can call this number." After receiving the phone number, Zeng Xianyong silently read it several times in his heart, and then solemnly put the small card in his leather bag.In Chengjin, where public security is not so good, this phone number may be a life-saving straw. Although Hou Weidong is a senior official than Deng Jiachun, in the eyes of ordinary people in society, the secretary of the county party committee is too high and too far away, and the director of the public security bureau is an absolute killer.

Deng Jiachun glanced at Zeng Xiangang and said, "You came from Lingxi, didn't you, did you go to Qinglin before?" Hou Weidong said: "Director Deng really has bright eyes. This is Zeng Xiangang. He used to be a colleague with me in Shangqinglin. Now he is a big boss in the provincial capital." Zeng Xiangang had a case on him, so he had a natural psychological distance from the chief of the public security bureau, and said, "How dare you call him a big boss, and he's just making a living." After chatting for a while, Deng Jiachun went back to the downstairs dormitory. He called Luo Jinhao and said, "Go to the bureau office right away. I have a task for you."

That night, the lights in the small conference room of the Public Security Bureau were not turned off until early in the morning. Hou Weidong had great confidence in Deng Jiachun, and after handing over the list to Deng Jiachun, he put the matter aside. In the morning, as soon as he arrived at the office, Yang Liu, the Municipal Party Committee Office, called and said, "Secretary Hou, early this morning, Fanglao, the magistrate of Chengjin County, was guarding the door of Secretary Zhou. He said at the Municipal Party Committee Office that Chengjin County was suspected of Illegally detained, his grandson Fang Jie is nowhere to be found alive or dead, and he demands that Chengjin County hand him over."

Hou Weidong said: "Fang Jie instigated people from the society to stab the director of the water plant in Hongxing Town, and the public security organs are arresting him. The old county magistrate Fang loves Sun very much, and his mood is understandable." Yang Liu said again: "Old county magistrate Fang also said that the court should have the final say on whether his grandson is guilty or not, and other agencies and people have no power to convict him. He also said that even if his grandson committed a crime, according to the principle of equal punishment for crimes, what should be done?" Punishment is fine, and he demands to know the whereabouts of his grandson."

Speaking of this, there were footsteps at the door.Yang Liu watched Yang Teng walk by, and said in a low voice, "Secretary Zhou has gone to a meeting and is not in the city. The old county magistrate Fang found Secretary Huang, and he is still talking about this matter in Secretary Huang's office. Secretary Hou should pay attention to this matter." , just now the old Fang county magistrate has already released the words that if Shazhou cannot resolve the matter, he will report it to the provincial party committee and the Party Central Committee.” Hou Weidong shook his head secretly, thinking: "It's really raining all night, how did the old county magistrate Fang find Huang Zidi?" He said: "The public security organs have never found Fang Jie, and the old county magistrate Fang has a lot of contacts in Chengjin. , relatives and old friends are all over the Chengjin County Public Security Bureau. If Fang Jie is really in the Public Security Bureau, how can we hide it from him?"

"I heard the old county magistrate Fang say that the police officers who went to Chengjin to arrest people this time also include the Shazhou police, so he also suspected that Fang Jie was taken away by the Shazhou Public Security Bureau. The prefectural police put pressure on it." Yang Liu paused and continued, "According to my intuition, the old county magistrate Fang did not seem to be lying, and he only believed that Fang Jie was arrested by the public security organs." Yang Liu has always been very concerned about Hou Weidong.When the old Fang county magistrate was babbling in the office like Mrs. Xianglin, she took the initiative to pour a glass of water and took the opportunity to set up some situations.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Zhou Changquan contacted Hou Weidong with a red telephone.After connecting, Zhou Changquan asked: "What's the matter with Fang Jie? Is it related to the Zhang Yongtai case?" The red phone is a highly confidential phone, and only leaders of a certain level are qualified to use it. Department of telephone contact, basically there is no leakage of the situation. Hou Weidong naturally told the truth in front of Zhou Changquan: "Deng Jiachun kept a close eye on Secretary Zhang's case. In addition to his normal work methods, he also sent insiders to infiltrate the casual people in Chengjin society. Fang Jie is the key suspect in Secretary Zhang's case." One of the people, he owns two lead-zinc mines, the equipment and production process are seriously polluted and have potential safety hazards. He has an opinion on the rectification work of the county government and ordered his subordinates to stab the director of the Hongxing Water Plant, but this is only The superficial cause of the incident. In fact, Deng Jiachun has collected a lot of evidence of Fang Jie's involvement in underworld activities, and when he was about to close the net, he suddenly disappeared."

When Zhou Changquan came to Shazhou, the old county magistrate Fang had already retired, and the two of them didn't have a deep friendship. He said, "Since Fang Jie is the key suspect, we should investigate to the end and don't be disturbed by other people and things. .” Hou Weidonghui reported: "Currently there is a new development in Secretary Zhang's case. There is a worker in Chengxi repair shop who has something to do with Fang Jie's subordinates. The suspicion is very high. After Secretary Zhang got into a car accident, he disappeared. It is said that he is in Guangxi. , The criminal police teams at the city and county levels secretly sent people to investigate, if this person is found, there may be a breakthrough in the case."

"Okay, okay, okay, it would be best if the case is solved before I leave Shazhou." Zhou Changquan couldn't help saying three "good" words when he saw that the matter had some clues. After hanging up the phone, Hou Weidong thought, "If the case of Zhang Yongtai was really committed by Fang Jie, his disappearance can be divided into two situations. One is voluntary disappearance, which is a cover-up. The other is passive disappearance, which is very likely to be hidden. There is something hidden." This idea had a direct impact on the case, so Hou Weidong called Deng Jiachun to the office.

At this time, Deng Jiachun, the director of the Public Security Bureau, was very busy. He was charged with protecting Hou Weidong's safety. After receiving the list provided by Zeng Xianyong, he called Luo Jinhao, the captain of the criminal police team, to the office, explained the whole story, and said viciously: "It doesn't matter what trick you use, first make the most troublesome The three vicious people went to the police station to let them know what it means to shoot yourself in the foot. You can find out the reasons for arresting people yourself, but you can’t break the law. It’s my decision to invite the three people to the Public Security Bureau, Secretary Hou If you don’t know, don’t talk about it.” Luo Jinhao understood Deng Jiachun's meaning, and quickly gathered the information of the three small lead-zinc mine owners, and formulated a plan to deal with them. That afternoon, at an underground casino in Dingshan, the owner of one of the small lead-zinc mines was captured on the spot, and was detained for fifteen days for participating in crowd-gathering. Another owner of a small lead-zinc mine likes to find hair-washing girls in the hair salon, but he has already arrived in Shazhou, so the matter is handed over to Hou Weiguo of the Shazhou Criminal Police Detachment. The third owner of a small lead-zinc mine is in his fifties. He does not prostitute or gamble. He likes to drink a little wine and sleep after drinking. However, drinking and sleeping is not illegal, so there is really nothing to catch.After scratching his head for a while, Luo Jinhao brought people to the mine for safety inspection, and accidentally found an unused detonator in the mine. "According to the "Measures for the Administration of Explosives", explosives such as detonators must be stored on the same day. As a boss, don't you understand the rules? You are suspected of hiding explosives. Please go to the police station and make a record." After arriving at the police station, Luo Jinhao It was announced that the owner of the small lead-zinc mine would be detained and fined at the same time. When the three lead-zinc mine bosses were brought into the Chengjin Public Security Bureau, Deng Jiachun immediately organized personnel to interrogate them. Seeing that something was going to happen, Hou Weidong called. Deng Jiachun had no choice but to let Luo Jinhao continue the interrogation, hurried to the county party committee, and said, "Secretary Hou, what's urgent?" Hou Weidong said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, have a sip of tea first, and have an idea that may help Zhang Yongtai's case." "Is it related to Fang Jie?" Deng Jiachun asked very sensitively. "This morning, the old county magistrate Fang went to the municipal party committee to appeal and asked the county party committee and the county government to hand over Fang Jie. Let me check for the last time, is Fang Jie detained by the public security organs?" "Absolutely not." "Speaking of which, there are indeed some problems with Fang Jie's affairs, and he is very likely to be killed. Then, there is another person behind Fang Jie, who is the most likely?" After listening to Hou Weidong's analysis, Deng Jiachun didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he said: "Our people are squatting in Guangxi, hoping to catch that repairman as soon as possible. But there is no rush, we can only wait slowly." He added, " Secretary Hou's thinking is correct, if Fang Jie is really missing, the key is the people behind him." After Lao Fang's petition in Shazhou failed to achieve his expected goal, he came to the provincial capital in a rage.When we arrived at the provincial party committee compound, unexpectedly the armed policeman on duty was a bewildered young man, and when he saw a bad old man about to enter the compound, he stopped him politely.The old county magistrate Fang was in a bad mood, and started arguing with the young armed police soldiers. "Are you a retired cadre? Please show your ID." "I didn't bring it." The old county magistrate Fang touched his pocket, but unexpectedly did not bring the retirement certificate that he carried with him in the past. "Who are you looking for?" Laofang county magistrate stretched his head to look at the provincial party committee compound.When he was the county magistrate, he knew several officials from the provincial party committee. Now that he has retired for more than 20 years, all his old friends have retired. He really can't think of anyone else working in the provincial party committee. He said: "I It's the retired county magistrate of Chengjin County, and he wants to report the situation to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, little comrade, let me in." The armed police soldiers didn't believe him at all, and still refused to let him go, saying: "If you want to report the situation to the Letters and Calls Bureau, you can't go in here." The old county magistrate Fang felt a little helpless, and said with a stampede, "Just go, I will go to the Letters and Calls Bureau to report the situation." When he turned around, he suddenly felt dizzy and fell limp at the gate of the Provincial Party Committee compound. Chen Zaixi, Director of the First Supervision Office of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, was walking out of the compound.The First Supervision Office contacted Shazhou. At a symposium, he had met the old county magistrate, and he had a deep impression on the old county magistrate. Seeing this scene, he hurried over.After a while, an ambulance drove over. At this time Fang Zhixing appeared. He was the son of the old county magistrate Fang and the father of Fang Jie.It has been ten years since he left Lingxi and settled in New Zealand. After receiving a call from Li Taizhong, he hesitated and returned to Lingxi by plane.Seeing my father like this in the provincial hospital made me secretly sad. "Where did this bastard go?" Fang Zhixing gritted his teeth angrily when he heard that Fang Jie was missing.Fang Jie was naughty since he was a child, and Fang Zhixing worried a lot. After divorcing Fang Jie's mother, he had very little contact with Fang Jie. "Keep your voice down, let's talk outside." Although Fang Jie's mother divorced Fang Zhixing, she has always been very kind to the old county magistrate.When the old county magistrate Fang was ill, she stayed by the bedside all the time. The two had a lot of trouble when they broke up, and they hadn't seen each other for nearly ten years after the breakup, so it was quite embarrassing to stand face to face at this time.But for Fang Jie, the two had to walk together.Fang Jie's mother said: "Xiaojie has recently fallen in love with a girl named Zhu Yingying from the Provincial Song and Dance Troupe. This girl's whereabouts are also unknown. I suspect that Xiaojie's disappearance has something to do with Zhu Yingying." "Where is Zhu Yingying?" "After Xiaojie disappeared, Zhu Yingying once came to her home to ask. I was very rude to her at the time, and she disappeared after that. I went to the provincial song and dance troupe to find her, and the song and dance troupe said that she had suspended her job six months ago. And her parents haven't seen her for more than a year." Fang Zhixing scolded: "This is a disappearance case, why didn't you report it? It's really stupid to investigate it yourself." Fang Jie's mother burst into tears, and said, "Xiaojie is no longer a child, how can I control him? It's normal not to see anyone for two or three months, so at that time she still had a look at Zhu Yingying, thinking that She made a fuss." She was a little confused, and said, "You have become a New Zealand citizen, so you can be regarded as a foreigner. If you come forward and have international influence, the superiors will pay attention to it." Soon, the news that the old Fang county magistrate fell ill in front of the provincial party committee compound spread back to Chengjin.In the process of dissemination, the number of versions changed, and finally it became that the old county magistrate drank pesticide in the provincial party committee compound, which has attracted the attention of the provincial party committee. After receiving Fang Zhixing, the United Front Work Department of the Provincial Party Committee attached great importance to it, and sent a director to accompany Fang Zhixing to Shazhou.Li Guangzhong, deputy director of the Shazhou United Front Work Department, accompanied the people from the province to Chengjin County. Li Guangzhong was from Shangqinglin, Yiyang. Back then, the Shangqinglin Highway had to pass through his ancestral tomb. For this reason, Li Guangzhong had a small conflict with Hou Weidong.Hou Weidong borrowed crooked tricks, found a fortune teller, and coaxed Li Guangzhong's father away, only then solved the problem of moving the grave. A few years later, Li Guangzhong is still serving as a deputy in the United Front Work Department, and concurrently as the director of the Bureau of Ethnic and Religious Affairs.He shook hands with Hou Weidong, and said enthusiastically: "Secretary Hou, you are the pride of Shangqinglin. When you presided over the road construction back then, I knew that Secretary Hou's future was limitless." Hou Weidong thought of the old story of asking a fortune teller, and said, "Thank you, Minister Li, for your support of the Shangqinglin Highway. Without the enlightenment and righteousness of you and the old man, the highway would not be so smooth." Li Guangzhong smiled and said, "I'm from Shangqinglin, I should." Fang Zhixing has been abroad for ten years. He works on farms in New Zealand every day, touching the fat sheep, looking up at the mountains and looking down at the grass. He can speak soft Mandarin in his ears. Domestic life seems to be far away from him.This time when he returned to Lingxi, it took him a while to get used to the crowded living environment. He politely said to Hou Weidong: "Mr. Hou, the dog's whereabouts have been missing for more than ten days. The family members are very anxious, and I implore the government to take care of it." The solution." Fang Zhixing recalled the Chengjin officialdom in his memory, and organized his words politely. Hou Weidong made a gesture, let several people into the meeting room, and said to the secretary Du Bing: "Please invite Director Deng to come to the meeting." Deng Jiachun, dressed in a neat police uniform, walked to the meeting room without squinting.After Hou Weidong explained the general situation, he raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Zhixing. He briefly talked about what happened, and said, "Because the injury of the injured person was not serious, Fang Jie only regarded it as a minor violation of the law, mainly for civil compensation." The middle-aged director of the United Front Work Department of the Provincial Party Committee interrupted Deng Jiachun, saying, "Since it's just civil compensation, Fang Jie's financial strength doesn't make him need to hide. The key question is where is Fang Jie?" Deng Jiachun didn't pay any attention to the director who interrupted, and the other party said: "Mr. Fang, I don't know how you think about this matter?" Fang Zhixing said: "After I returned to Lingxi, I asked my family members, but they didn't know Fang Jie's whereabouts. My father was also hospitalized for this matter." "Since Fang Jie is missing, Chengjin Public Security will do their best to find him, and ask relatives to provide more useful clues." "I heard that Fang Jie has a girlfriend named Zhu Yingying, who used to live with Fang Jie in Shazhou. Now I officially report to the police that Fang Jie is missing. Please help Chengjin police." Hou Weidong said: "The Chengjin police will do their best to find Fang Jie's whereabouts. Please rest assured Mr. Fang on this point. At the same time, please cooperate with the police's work." Fang's father and son came to the provincial song and dance troupe, and found Zhu Yingying after a lot of trouble.Under the tears of the elders in Laofang County, Zhu Yingying brought a group of people to Fang Jie's secret residence in Crescent Tower. Entering this secret residence, there is a full set of modern electrical appliances in the house, and the furniture is also high-end goods bought from Lingxi, which surprised Fang Zhixing: "Xiaojie is really rich, and this set of facilities is not expensive in New Zealand." Difference." Luo Jinhao led several experts from the criminal police team to conduct a careful search of the scene. There were still some fruits in the refrigerator, the skins of which had turned black. It seemed that it had been some time.There is also a pot of chicken soup with black mold growing on the thick layer of oil, and the vegetables in the kitchen are starting to rot.There are two sets of toiletries for men and women in the bathroom, and there is a large row of women's clothes in the closet, and there is a room containing women's underwear, all of which are high-end goods.There are several large photos of Zhu Yingying on the table. She looks at the people in the room with a smile on her face and eyes. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Luo Jinhao led a few criminal policemen to search carefully, trying to find any clues left by Fang Jie, but after searching again, they found nothing. "No, Fang Jie doesn't have a locked cabinet at home. His money and important items should be in the safe." Luo Jinhao walked around the room again, but he didn't see the safe.He came to Fang Jie's mother and said, "Looking at this, Fang Jie must have left in a hurry, and he didn't take away the washed underwear. Something must have happened. Does Fang Jie have a safe? Fang Jie is very important." When Fang Jie's mother heard this, her face was full of anxiety, she hesitated for a moment, and said, "I accidentally learned that Xiaojie has a safe, but I don't know where it is." Zhu Yingying had already taken the cash from the safe. She was afraid that Fang's family would investigate the matter, so she said, "I didn't know there was a safe." Knowing that there was a safe, Luo Jinhao winked, and several criminal police officers searched the dark corners, and finally found the small safe behind the kitchen. "Zhu Yingying, do you know the number?" "I don't know." Zhu Yingying shook her head pitifully at the side like a frightened bird. When the locksmith was fighting with the safe, Li Taizhong got the news that Fang Zhixing had returned to Shazhou.He called Fang Zhixing: "Zhixing, when did you return to Shazhou? Have you seen the old man? Come to my house for a gathering at noon today." Hearing that Fang Zhixing was leading the police to search Fang Jie's house, Li Taizhong thought he was lucky, and thought: "Fortunately, I went to check it, otherwise I will definitely not be able to sleep at night." He said: "Xiaojie is very playful, maybe Even if he and Zhu Yingying had their honeymoon ahead of schedule and let the police come to the house to investigate, Xiaojie would definitely be angry." Li Dongfang plotted against Fang Jie. This is a top secret among top secrets. Li Taizhong didn't know about it. The hidden disease in his heart was Zhang Yongtai's death, so he was very taboo about the police intervening in Fang Jie's affairs. Fang Zhixing was a complete outsider, and said: "Xiaojie will understand our good intentions, and it is for his own good." Li Taizhong said: "In the past few years, Xiaojie's business has developed very well, and there have been a lot of tax evasion and tax evasion. If the police check the account books, Xiaojie will definitely go to jail." Fang Zhixing was a little worried at this point, put down the phone, and saw the locksmith's proud face, he had successfully opened the safe. There was nothing in the safe, Luo Jinhao was a little disappointed.Not reconciled, he went to the door of the safe, and found a thin and small phone book in the corner of the safe, which was very inconspicuous.Luo Jinhao stretched his hand in calmly, held the small phone book in his hand, and slowly drew it back. His movements were extremely calm, and no one noticed that he had already taken a book. Luo Jinhao knew that the book locked in the safe must be important, so he returned to the Public Security Bureau and handed it to Deng Jiachun.Hou Weidong took the phone book in Deng Jiachun's hand, flipped through it for a while, and said, "This is the phone number book. What do the numbers behind it mean?" Deng Jiachun studied this little book several times earlier, and said: "Fang Jie put the little book in the safe, it should be very important. I guess the numbers behind it are bribery data." Hou Weidong counted, and there were twenty-seven names with numbers behind them in the phone book. He thought for a while, and said, "Just a phone book and the numbers behind it can't explain the problem. Only after Fang Jie is found, these numbers can be used. Useful. However, this has some reference value for the county party committee. There are too many cadres involved in it. The original copy should be placed with me first. Be careful not to let it out, otherwise it will cause confusion among the cadres." He emphasized, "Except The three of us, we must not let others know that there is such a book." Deng Jiachun said: "We have found out where Zhu Yingying is temporarily staying in Lingxi. According to observations, Fang Jie is not with Zhu Yingying. I plan to close the net today and bring Zhu Yingying back to the county bureau to assist in the investigation." In the past, Hou Weidong still had a good impression of Zhu Yingying, a beautiful woman. Later, seeing that she had been with Liu Mingming first, and then Fang Jie, his affection for Zhu Yingying disappeared, so he said: "Zhu Yingying and Fang Jie are lovers, she should know There are a lot of things, you can bring her back to Chengjin, and ask her carefully." All night, Hou Weidong studied the names in the small notebook. He wrote down the names one by one, and wrote down his current position to make a list.Hou Weidong was surprised to find that many of the names in the list could be found in the confidential phone books of the county party committee and county government, Zhu Guoren, director of the National People's Congress, Zhu Biao, director of the Construction Committee, Lao Gou, head of the Land and Resources Bureau, Hu Hai, director of the county party committee office, and Wen Gong, secretary of the Shuanghe town party committee. Big names like Cheng are on the list.It's just that the numbers behind each person vary in size, and the size of the numbers is proportional to the size and importance of the official position. "It's no wonder that Zhang Yongtai is always high-spirited and humble. There are so many great people with gray, but he is as clear as a stream." Hou Weidong locked up the small book. This small book is very important and will come in handy sooner or later.It's just that this book is another bomb, and it's not appropriate to publish it immediately, otherwise Chengjin will inevitably be in chaos, which is not conducive to solving the problem. While smoking in the room, he turned around in circles, carefully sorting out the messy things in his mind.
