Li Xiuyuan's expression turned serious as he stared intently at the passing Audi. He could tell that the driver wasn't very familiar with the roads, since it was morning and there weren't many cars in the town. He was driving very slowly, so he was definitely not familiar with the area.
This rules out another possibility: locals working in other places.
That's from outside.
At a time when provincial leaders were conducting research and inspection in Xichuan City, the appearance of an Audi with a license plate from Zhongbei City, the provincial capital, in the central town early in the morning is certainly alarming.
Li Xiuyuan was quite politically astute, and his heart immediately skipped a beat.
His eyes unconsciously followed the direction the car was traveling, wondering what he should do. It would definitely not be right to rashly notify the county that a provincial leader had come to the central town.
If something goes wrong, then you'll be the one who loses face in the end.
There's a saying within the system: "The more you do, the more mistakes you make; the less you do, the less mistakes you make." This saying is very true. For example, at this time, even if provincial leaders secretly come for an unannounced inspection without notifying the local authorities, if something goes wrong, it won't have much to do with you. Even if someone has to be punished, it will be the responsibility of Secretary Zhang Xingguo or Mayor Hou Peng.
It has absolutely nothing to do with me, the newly appointed executive deputy mayor.
But if I just give the notification like that, and after all that trouble, it turns out to be a misunderstanding, then I'll become a laughing stock.
So it's better to discover something and not notify them than to notify them. At this point, you can't say you're better off not being afraid of the odds than being afraid of the worst-case scenario. Unless you're 100% sure, even if you're 90% certain, you can't gamble on that 10% probability.
However, Li Xiuyuan still wanted to confirm where the car was going.
Li Xiuyuan quickly followed. Of course, a person can't keep up with a car, but Li Xiuyuan was definitely more familiar with the central town than the other party, so having a general idea of the direction was enough.
At worst, we can find someone later to verify which organization the license plate number belongs to.
However, Li Xiuyuan hadn't taken more than two steps when he quickly stopped, because the car had already stopped not far away in front of the town's middle school, and Li Xiuyuan naturally wouldn't go any closer.
But at the same time, he became even more suspicious. Just then, an Audi with a provincial license plate appeared. He was quite certain that these were the provincial leaders who had come this time.
Although there was no such thing as "four no's and two direct's" at that time, there were still some undercover investigations, just fewer.
But Li Xiuyuan was puzzled by the fact that they were stopping in front of the town's middle school. This research and inspection was mainly aimed at checking the "advanced nature of the Party" education work. Even if you were focusing on the grassroots Party branches, it would be better than the school.
It's not like we're conducting any educational research or investigation, so what are we doing at the school?
Li Xiuyuan was filled with doubts, so he slowly moved a little closer. He then discovered that there was a familiar figure at the school gate. Li Xiuyuan was quite far away, and usually, at such a distance, one would not be able to recognize who it was.
