"Director, it's my fault. What should I do now?" Zhou Dayong waited for him to speak.
"You think about it." He turned over in the bed and continued to sleep. He didn't open his eyes even after he woke up.
"Then let me think about it!" The director gave him such a difficult task, I must do it well.
If you want to think of it, you have to think of several and use the best one. If the one caught by Shi Shichang and others is really an undercover, then he has done a great job. In this case, it seems that the position of mayor may not necessarily belong to Wu Dehua.
It would be better to send someone to intercept the undercover agent now, but the undercover agent was caught by Xiang Ming and Shi Shichang. When he says that it was Wu Dehua who caught him, the superiors will definitely not believe them. Although Wu Dehua has not done anything famous in these years, it is difficult to find any mistakes from outside.
This wouldn't work, so he needed to think about it again. He could just rescue the person and then turn around and say that it was because he discovered their secret. It didn't matter what the truth was. The most important thing was to bring the person down. It would take some time to investigate, and who else would be worthy of the position of mayor except the director.
"I figured it out. Director, get up and let's get the person out!"
"What are you doing? If the boss sees it, we both can't deny our connection with the undercover agent! Are you here to harm me?!" Wu Dehua felt that his suggestion was very unreliable. Although he was not very smart, he also knew that there would be no good end to being associated with the undercover agent.
"Think about it, if we pull them down, who will sit in that position? Only you can sit there." Zhou Dayong approached him and said with a sly smile, "Besides, how could I harm you! We are one. The higher your position, the better my treatment will be. Don't you agree, Mayor?"
"Oh, no, no, no, I'm not yet." It sounds good, but he feels like something is missing.
"I understand, Mayor Wu!" Zhou Dayong smiled flatteringly. He knew it would work when he saw the director open his eyes and look at him straight in the eye.
"Mayor Wu, get up quickly! Do it first and then go to sleep."
Since he was sincere in trying to find a solution for him, I didn't blame him for making the decision for him.
"Come, help the mayor get dressed." He sat up. It was too hot and he had no clothes on. Several layers of fat were piled on his belly, which was so squeezed that he couldn't even see his eyes.
Zhou Dayong looked around and saw Wu Dehua's clothes scattered everywhere, and a pile of dirty clothes piled together in a disorderly manner, making it impossible to tell their original shape.
He found a relatively clean short-sleeved shirt from the pile of clothes and put it on him before getting out of bed.
"Let's go, Mayor Wu~" Zhou Dayong poured him a glass of water, and after he drank it, he made a gesture to invite him to go out.
He can't accomplish it by himself. These people are just old guys who rely on others for power and will not give him face.
Wu Dehua put his hands behind his back, like a leader inspecting something. It was very dark outside. Zhou Dayong had already found a flashlight in his house. Zhou Dayong walked respectfully behind him, bending his arm to make sure the flashlight shone accurately in front of him, not daring to cross him at all.
"Xiao Zhou! How many years have you followed me?" Over the years, Zhou Dayong has been helping him with things, and he is also the one who is most comfortable with him. He only needs to look at him to understand what he wants.
"Ten years."
After waiting for a long time, he just walked ahead, as if what he just said was just something he said on a whim.
Although Zhou Dayong was completely confused, he became motivated again when he thought about how he would live a good life once Wu Dehua became the mayor.
When they arrived at the gate of the county government, Zhou Dayong was first arranged to check whether they were there. After all, if they ran into them, the old man would not listen to them with the mayor's pressure on him.
Zhou Dayong pretended to be passing by and walked around the door. When he didn't see Shi Shichang and Xiang Ming, he came back and said to them, "They're not here. Let's go!"
"You go first!"
Seeing that he had no intention of moving, I went alone, "Uncle, open the door!"
The doorman was so sleepy that he was lying on the table. After knocking on the door for a long time, he came over and looked over. He looked very familiar and must be an employee here. He opened the door, thinking he needed something.
"What's the matter? Did you forget to take something?"
Zhou Dayong walked into the house and chatted with him naturally, "Uncle, this is what happened. The mayor came home and felt uneasy about leaving the person here, so he asked me to take him to a safe place! If you give him to me, you won't have to be disturbed by him when you sleep."
Bao Gaoyuan on the ground was already tired from moving, but when he heard him speak, he felt like he was saved, and pounced on him again.
"How can I believe you?" The old man remembered that Shi Shichang told him that no matter who came to look for him at night, he could not hand the person over and could only wait until they came tomorrow to deal with it.
When he said this, his eyes paused on Bao Gaoyuan: "When he goes to the toilet at night, do you come to clean it? He won't stay long and will leave. Uncle, you are guarding here and the smell every day is bad for your health."
The gatekeeper's eyelids were heavy, and I could only hear him mumble that he was going to take the person away. He pushed the person out and said, "Go, go, go. I haven't received any news unless he comes to tell me in person."
"Why are you being unreasonable? I've already told you that he was the one who asked me to come here. I've worked here for so long, how could I lie to you?" Zhou Dayong staggered after being pushed, and then he reacted by holding the door with his hands to prevent himself from going out.
"If you are in cahoots with him, I can't take the responsibility!" The gatekeeper saw clearly that he was just a gatekeeper and didn't want to get involved in these things.
"I swear I'm not in cahoots with him!" Zhou Dayong said as he was about to raise his hand to swear.
The gatekeeper looked at him and did nothing. He took a break and decided not to believe anything he said.
"I understand, get out of here!"
Zhou Dayong's heels seemed to be rooted to the ground and he didn't move at all.
Wu Dehua waited for a long time, but no one came out. He was bitten by mosquitoes so badly that he went over to see and found that the two were holding hands.
"Why isn't it done yet?" Wu Dehua turned his head to the side, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled, looking like he didn't want to care about it anymore.
"This old man doesn't believe us!" Zhou Dayong saw the director coming and stopped shouting, and started to complain.
The old man guarding the gate looked at the director who had helped him before, and without arguing with Zhou Dayong, he smiled at Wu Dehua and said, "Director, is it you who wants him? Why didn't you tell me earlier? I would have let him go!"
No one else in this place looked at him straight in the eye, except the director, who stood up for him when others were picking on him.
"I didn't ask for it. I was helping them catch someone. Don't talk nonsense!" He didn't want too many people to see what happened today.
"Okay, okay, I don't know anything." The gatekeeper let them in without asking any questions.
"Yeah." Wu Dehua nodded and signaled Zhou Dayong with his eyes, asking him to take the person away.
