Chapter 40 Chapter Thirty-Nine

Today's meeting was of a very high standard, and several teams in the city were all present. For Gao Dong, it was an awkward meeting. The meeting was chaired by Mayor Liu, and the main leaders of the Public Security Bureau, the Political and Legal Committee, the Joint Defense, the Armed Police, the prison, the labor camp, and other relevant units in the city were all present. The purpose of this meeting is to discuss the tone of how to deal with the spontaneous demonstrations of the people in the day after tomorrow. The cause of this incident was that a county below wanted to invest in a large-scale chemical project. The local people were afraid of environmental pollution and had great opinions on this.So a small group of people in the county began to call for protests and boycotts. As a result, the local police arrested several leaders.This trouble, not only did not restrain the matter, but angered more people.Many people went online to call for a collective demonstration in the Tiantian Square in the urban area. As a result, many posts were deleted and a few people were arrested, which made the incident even bigger.So many local people agreed to come to the city for a walk next Tuesday.In addition, there are many people who support the local people in the city, and it is estimated that there are at least tens of thousands of people.

So this time the situation is very serious, the opinion of the province is for the city to handle it properly.This is an ambiguous opinion, because the leaders of the province don't know how to deal with it most properly, and they are afraid that if something goes wrong, it will involve themselves and affect their official career.So he gave a request to "handle it properly", and let the city handle everything by itself. Mayor Liu, who presided over the meeting, asked the public security organs to take a severe and high-handed posture to kill the walk in the cradle.Gao Dong knew very well that Mayor Liu was so tough because he was the one who introduced this project.Among the other people at the meeting, although many people did not approve of this approach in their hearts, thinking that it would expand the situation, they were unwilling to stand up and express their views directly.Everyone knows that if you express objections, you will definitely offend Mayor Liu.

Gao Dong and the other directors of the Public Security Bureau were just transferred last year, and their foundation is not stable, so this time they decided to gamble on their future and stand unequivocally on Mayor Liu's side.The deputy director in charge of public security was ambiguous, saying only that the instructions of the meeting must be followed. Gao Dong's father-in-law is the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, and the public prosecutors and the courts all listen to him, but he will retire in a few years, and he is a local, so he doesn't want to leave a bad name, so he discussed it with Gao Dong before the meeting.Gao Dong didn't want to involve himself in this kind of thing, but he didn't want to offend other leaders because of it, so he agreed with his father-in-law that no matter how many people are arrested or not, at most they will be dealt with according to the public security management regulations, and no criminal charges will be charged. It's hard to clean up the mess, as long as it doesn't rise to the level of criminal law, it naturally has nothing to do with him, the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation.So his father-in-law expressed this point of view at the meeting, and tried his best to control the expansion of the situation, so as not to cause criminal cases.

When it was Gao Dong's turn to express his opinion, he also used Tai Chi to say that it should be handled properly, not to make a big fuss, and to avoid the intervention of the criminal police as much as possible.In private, I have already greeted all the criminal policemen under my command. Don't worry about how the security police and armed police will deal with it. Their people will never stand out. Although Mayor Liu was dissatisfied with Gao Dong's statement, Gao Dong spoke very well, and he had nothing to refute directly. In this way, everyone discussed tacitly and with reservations for several hours, but still did not set the final implementation tone for the meeting.

At this moment, Gao Dong's cell phone vibrated, it was difficult for him to answer the phone in a meeting of this size, he saw that it was Zhang Yiang calling, after pressing the button, he immediately sent a text message to ask what's the matter. Soon, Zhang Yiang replied to the text message, and it was written on the phone: "Director Shao is dead." In an instant, Gao Dong's face changed drastically, he clenched his teeth tightly, and his fingers trembled uncontrollably. He forced himself to remain calm, stood up and quietly went out the door. Both the director and his father-in-law saw that his expression was strange, and it was not easy to ask questions in the meeting at this time.

Gao Dong came outside the meeting room, walked to the window with trembling steps, hesitated for a while, and dialed Zhang Yiang's cell phone. "Boss... Shao... Director Shao is dead." Zhang Yiang also stuttered. "How... how did you die?" Gao Dong could no longer be as calm as before. "Old Chen is investigating, and the preliminary judgment is suicide." "Suicide... oh, suicide, just commit suicide." Gao Dong was a little confused. He knew that suicide was unreasonable. Wang Baoguo and Hu Haiping had just died. Now Shao Xiaobing is also dead. No one would believe this, but at this moment in his heart, he still strongly hoped that Shao Xiaobing really committed suicide.If Shao Xiaobing didn't commit suicide, but was also murdered, then he, the deputy director of criminal investigation of the Municipal Bureau and the leader of the special case team, is doomed to walk away without food.

"Boss, when will you be back here?" "Maybe...maybe it will be a few days. You, you hurry up and tell me the details." "A fisherman reported in the morning that a body was found on a rocky beach on a small sandy beach in the southeast of the county. The criminal investigation team ran to see that it was Director Shao. Old Chen had been investigating there for more than an hour. He said that at first glance, Director Shao committed suicide by jumping off the cliff above the rocky beach, and the evidence at the scene is still being extracted. Just now they found Director Shao's car on a country road one kilometer away, and the belongings in the car were intact. .”

"Then... what about Shao Xiaobing's wife?" "So far there is no news. Many police dogs have been dispatched, and hundreds of policemen are searching all over the mountains and plains. There is no news so far. I don't know if he is dead or alive." Gao Dong hurriedly collected his mind, thought for a while, and said: "Okay, okay, let's do this first, you remember, go and watch carefully, let Lao Chen check carefully, and, yes, Shao Xiaobing last night Go home and ask Lao Chen to check Shao Xiaobing's house thoroughly, and don't let go of any details. If there is an update, call me immediately."

After hanging up the phone, Gao Dong felt that his hands were numb from lack of oxygen. He took a few deep breaths, went to the bathroom to wash his face, tidied up and went back to the meeting room, walked to his father-in-law, and secretly said: "Shao Xiaobing is dead!" gone." Immediately, the secretary of the political and legal committee also changed his expression drastically.
