Chapter 35 Chapter Thirty-Four

Gao Dong knocked on the door twice, then turned the handle and drove in. "Dad, boss, you are all here." This is a large office with luxurious decoration. Behind a large solid wood desk sits a man in his fifties, wearing a pair of double-bridge gold-rimmed glasses, and his hair is neatly combed. On the sofa in front of him sat a slightly fat man in his fifties. He was already bald on the top of his head, but his long hair on the edge of his head was combed horizontally meticulously. Behind the desk is his father-in-law Li Maoshan.On the sofa was Zhang Guosheng, director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Director Zhang Guosheng smiled at him and said, "Xiao Gao, are you tired all this time?" Gao Dong's eyes were bloodshot, and after not sleeping all night, he forced a smile, leaned back on the sofa, and said, "It's okay." Father-in-law Li Maoshan came out from behind the desk, handed him a bottle of green tea, and said, "You'd better keep your spirits up, today's meeting will probably take a long time." Gao Dong took out a pack of cigarettes, divided them, and said, "It doesn't matter to me." Zhang Guosheng pointed at him and smiled: "It's good to be young, I took a nap in the morning, and I still feel sleepy now, ha ha."

Li Maoshan exhaled, and said: "Well, you should catch up on the car at noon, and now we need to confirm the situation with you and check the caliber in the afternoon." Zhang Guosheng said: "Xiao Gao, you know the situation, right?" Gao Dong nodded and said with a wry smile: "After three weeks of handling the case, Zhang Xiangping was killed again. I am mentally prepared for the consequences of this incident." Li Maoshan reassured: "It doesn't matter much. I made an agreement with Lao Zhang. We will definitely protect you. Several leaders in the province have also promised to speak for you."

Gao Dong said, "Then who is responsible for this incident?" Li Maoshan frowned, walked a few steps, and said: "What happened to the meeting in the end, we don't know now. I checked the mouth of the province, and it is said that I plan to record Guo Hongen as a demerit and punish the county public security bureau chief." duty." "Withdraw Guo Hongen? Who will be the chief?" Gao Dong said. Li Maoshan said: "I guess we shouldn't withdraw now. Now that the situation is on the cusp and the case has not yet been solved, removing the director general will shake the morale of the army. I guess the final result of the meeting is that Guo Hongen will continue to serve as the temporary director and wait for the case." If it is broken, then remove him and replace him with a director. In short, there should be no specific accountability for this kind of barrier.”

Gao Dong said, "What about me?" He doesn't care about Guo Hongen's official career, he only cares about his own future. Li Maoshan pursed his lips: "The leader of the special case team will probably be replaced by Wang Xiaoyong, and you will be the deputy team leader. The main thing on your side is that this case has been investigated for so long, but there is no result. Instead, another deputy director died. The higher-ups are a little annoyed , saying that there are no good generals in the city bureau. I think you will be in a bit of trouble when you change office next year."

Originally, according to the arrangement of Li Maoshan and Zhang Guosheng, Gao Dong will be promoted to the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau for a new term next year.Since Gao Dong is from this city, he cannot be the director of the city, so he plans to accumulate a few years of experience as the deputy director before entering the provincial department or ministry.If there is an opportunity, it will be even better to be the top leader of the public security in key cities. Before this plan can be said to be smooth sailing.Because Gao Dong is capable, the most important thing is that he is young.He is only thirty-six or seven years old, as long as he can reach the deputy department level before the age of forty, his future will be even more limitless.

Their director, Zhang Guosheng, also valued Gao Dong very much. Gao Dong's marriage was also introduced by Zhang Guosheng. Gao Dong solved many major cases for the city bureau, and won Zhang Guosheng's trust. Of course, Zhang Guosheng tried his best to promote Gao Dong, and Li Maoshan also helped arrange Zhang Guosheng's daughter and son into the brother unit.It's just that Zhang Guosheng's daughter and son don't have any abilities themselves, they can only be officials like the director of the management committee of the development zone, and they can't do the top positions with a lot of real power.

Gao Dong thought that this time the case was not solved and a new case was added. He has not found anything so far. He is somewhat stained. I am afraid that there will be a lot of variables when he becomes the deputy director next year. He gritted his teeth and sneered: "Replace me as the leader of the task force, heh heh, I see what Wang Xiaoyong can do!" Zhang Guosheng said: "Wang Xiaoyong has a wide network of contacts, this time I heard that he plans to transfer several well-known criminal investigation experts to assist him in solving the case." Gao Dong said disdainfully: "It's useless, he doesn't know the truth of this case at all, let's see how he can't step down."

Zhang Guosheng and Li Maoshan looked at each other, Zhang Guosheng said: "We don't know much about the specific progress of the investigation of the case, do you think Wang Xiaoyong will not be able to solve the case then?" Gao Dong said: "Boss, you should know my ability to solve crimes." Zhang Guosheng said: "Of course, you are the one who solved several major cases in the bureau. If you can't solve them, ordinary people can't even think about it." Gao Dong said: "I have never encountered such a murderer in the ten years since I was a police officer. There is no evidence left, and we still don't know a lot about the criminal methods. not understand."

Li Maoshan said: "Is there something that has been missed?" He didn't know criminal investigation, so he asked very carefully. Gao Dong shook his head: "All monitoring, on-site, and surrounding visits have been done, and there are no clues." Li Maoshan paced back and forth a few times, then made eye contact with Zhang Guosheng, and said: "If Wang Xiaoyong can't find out by then, then we can think of another idea. Old Zhang, do you think so?" Zhang Guosheng said with a smile: "That's right, if Wang Xiaoyong can't find out, the matter will be easy to handle. No one dares to say that our city bureau is not capable enough."

Li Maoshan confirmed it again: "How sure are you that Wang Xiaoyong will not be able to solve the case by then?" Gao Dong said: "As long as the murderer remains the same as before and does not show any major flaws, Wang Xiaoyong will definitely not be able to find out." Zhang Guosheng nodded and said with a smile: "If Wang Xiaoyong can't solve the case, then it's no big deal for you. There will be a change of office next year, and no one will gossip." Li Maoshan said: "Okay, let's do this, let's take two steps. The first step, at today's meeting, we must find a way to shift the tone of accountability to the work of solving the case. In addition, we must focus on analyzing the complexity of the case." nature, and get rid of the above-mentioned doubts about the capabilities of the police officers in our city. Of course, the most important point is to let the leaders of the Ministry have confidence in the situation in our city, and our basic regime is stable. The second step, let’s go Wang Xiaoyong, let him take over the play and continue to sing. We left Gao Dong's men and horses in Baixiang County to help him solve the case. But, Gao Dong, you have to pay attention. If your men and horses find any important clues, you must Report to you first, and then you weigh whether to provide it to Wang Xiaoyong. Well, don’t let Wang Xiaoyong solve the case easily. Just wait until Wang Xiaoyong has nothing to do, and he retreats, and you take over. After all, the case happened in our city. It's still going to be broken. I hope it's you. Look, how about it?" Gao Dong smiled: "I have already greeted my subordinates before I came here, and if you find any clues, please tell me first, and no one should disclose them for the time being." Both Li Maoshan and Zhang Guosheng laughed and praised him for getting more and more meticulous in his work. The real murderer, Xu Ce, would never have dreamed that his serial murder would become a tool for power struggle in the hands of politicians. Of course, although Gao Dong didn't want Wang Xiaoyong to solve the case, he himself had the attitude that this case must be solved, otherwise, it would become the biggest stain on his official career in the next few decades. He believed that the murderer had gradually revealed his true self, and he believed that he would be able to catch the murderer soon. As for Xu Ce, is he prepared for the future?
