Chapter 69: You have made great contributions in reporting the case. The organization wants to give you and your wife...
Normally, police officers are not given guns, but tonight's mission is special.
Director Hu and Xing Hongxia are both key targets and must be arrested on the spot, so the team going to the countryside cannot slack off and must be equipped with guns.
Although the dirty business of the non-staple food factory happened before, scum like Director Cao still needs to be arrested, and a few people need to be arranged here.
As for Li Le, who hid in the countryside of a neighboring city, although the Public Security Bureau of the neighboring city was willing to cooperate in the arrest, Yicheng had to send two people to pick him up. What's more, a large amount of flour was hidden in a private workshop there, and the dirty stuff had to be recovered, so the arrangements here had to be cautious, and guns had to be equipped.
The situation at the garment factory was easier to handle. After the adultery incident, Zhang Hongliang was regarded as an enemy by his son, who directly cooperated with the police to trick his father into the police station and arrested him.
The most important thing is the feed factory. First, there are many factory buildings. Second, you can enter and exit through the front and back doors. Third, the person in charge is arrogant. After all, he is Director Hu’s biological son. Even Hu Jia is so arrogant, so his biological son will only become more arrogant.
You must carry a gun.
When Lao Hu got the gun, his blood boiled.
He could not forget what Yang Shuming had said to him. He was a man with ideals and aspirations, and he did not want to let down the police uniform he was wearing.
If possible, tonight is the best time for him to atone for his sins.
He was more active than anyone else and rushed to the front after arriving at the scene.
Rushing into the feed factory, he saw a large group of people carrying rice bran and wheat bran, so he had to fire a warning shot!
I thought I could scare off these parasites who were stealing collective property, but I didn't expect the other party to pull out a gun and shoot Lao Hu. Fortunately, the man was so angry that he missed the target and the bullet grazed Lao Hu's ear and flew out.
Yang Shuming couldn't help but feel alarmed. Did the termites here really have guns? Fortunately, the police were also issued guns before they came.
Hurry up, protect Lao Hu! Charge!
Unexpectedly, there was more than one gun on the opposite side. In the melee, a figure continued to rush forward, but fell down at the moment when the main culprit was about to be caught.
The arrogant young man blew on the hot muzzle of the gun and pulled the trigger again at Yang Shuming who was chasing him from behind.
However, with a bang, a bullet flying from a distance taught him a lesson.
The lawless man fell straight into the arms of his companion behind him with his eyes wide open.
Blood gushed out from between his eyebrows, drawing a straight and clear vertical line on his face, like a bottomless chasm, dividing his face into two, looking hideous and terrifying.
I used up my last bit of strength to take a look, and it turned out to be... a female police officer?
The blood was boiling hot and flowed into his mouth, dividing his life into two. One half was full of flowers and brocade, and the other half was full of sins and deserved to die.
Tang Fengyuan hadn't fired a gun for many years. When he fired this shot, he was determined to die, but he didn't expect that the person who died was not himself.
That’s great. She is a people’s police officer with accurate shooting skills. She stopped the vicious madness. She deserves this police uniform and the trust of the people.
"Hurry, Lao Qiao, go find a door panel and carry Lao Hu to the hospital, quickly!" Tang Fengyuan shouted heartbreakingly.
This is Lao Hu, the kind and enthusiastic Lao Hu who is willing to protect his colleagues and not drag others into trouble after being forced to make mistakes.
Lao Qiao rushed forward quickly, but he knew there was no hope, as the bullet shot at Lao Hu hit him right in the heart.
The hot blood gushed out, staining his and Tang Fengyuan's hands red. It was like a newly dug spring, gurgling and gushing continuously.
Lao Qiao couldn't bear it, and with red eyes, he helped Lao Hu close his eyes. Unexpectedly, Lao Hu was still breathing. He struggled to look at Tang Fengyuan: "Help me... Help me... I'm... sorry..."
Tang Fengyuan knew what he wanted to say and held his hand tightly. Her tears were burning, but they could not warm Lao Hu's gradually cooling body.
He could only let him go with peace of mind and nodded quickly: "Don't worry, I will plead with the organization on your behalf and help take care of your children. You can go with peace of mind."
Lao Hu smiled tiredly. His life was about to end while performing his duties. He had no regrets. At least, he didn't have to live with anxiety and guilt anymore.
That’s great! Thanks to the enthusiastic people who reported the case, he can finally have a clear conscience and start a new life.
He took out his police badge with trembling hands, held it in his hand, and pressed it against his heart.
He finally lived up to the police uniform, finally...
With his head tilted, Lao Hu closed his eyes forever. Lao Qiao hugged him, feeling very sad.
Tang Fengyuan had no time to be sad, as there were still a few accomplices who were resisting stubbornly, and she had to go and help them quickly.
Wiping away her tears and loading her bullets, the only female police officer in the team rushed forward again.
Yao Zhizhi really couldn't sleep, so she simply called Qi Changxiao and went to wait at the door of the Public Security Bureau.
For such a large-scale operation, even if my mother-in-law and the others come back, they will gather at the Public Security Bureau. Besides, she has a brother-in-law who is a criminal police officer, and she doesn't want to see any of them get into trouble.
The couple stood in the hot wind of the midsummer night, fighting mosquitoes and living with anxiety.
I waited and waited until one o'clock in the morning when I heard a noise coming from afar.
Is that the sound of a car? Is the police car coming back?
Yao Zhizhi hurried down the steps in front of the Public Security Bureau and walked towards the street outside.
Carloads of people came back, and she even saw a few acquaintances from the Chengnan Police Station, but she never saw her mother-in-law, Lao Hu, and Lao Qiao.
Yao Zhizhi nervously held Qi Changxiao's hand. Even though he repeatedly assured her that her mother and brother-in-law had positive fortune, she couldn't let go of her worries until they came back.
When Yang Shuming got out of a police car covered in blood, Yao Zhizhi hurried over to him: "Brother-in-law, are you okay?"
"It's okay, just a little scratch." Yang Shuming went there today with the determination to die. It was Lao Hu who attracted the main firepower, so no one on the criminal police team's side was sacrificed, only two were injured.
Yao Zhizhi still didn't see her mother-in-law, so she quickly asked, "Where's my mom?"
"We went to the hospital." Yang Shuming was about to say something to comfort her, but he didn't expect that this sentence would cause misunderstanding. Yao Zhizhi was so scared that her face turned pale and she staggered and fell into Qi Changxiao's arms.
Yang Shuming quickly explained: "She took Lao Hu to the hospital, Lao Hu..."
"Old Hu is injured?" This time it was Qi Changxiao who spoke.
Old Hu is a very good person. He has helped them and their son countless times since they were young. He doesn't want anything to happen to Old Hu.
Yang Shuming did not answer, but took off his police hat and lowered his eyes silently.
The couple were smart people. Knowing that Lao Hu would not come back, they quickly asked which hospital she went to and sent some food to her mother-in-law first.
She left two packs of meat floss biscuits for Yang Shuming and asked Qi Changxiao to go to the hospital.
When we got there, all of Lao Hu's family members were there.
The doctors still followed the procedures to try to save the patient, but they were not gods and could not do anything.
The cries were deafening, and under the slowly rising white cloth, the sacrificed police officer looked so thin, yet so peaceful.
Yao Zhizhi hugged her sad mother-in-law and was about to say something when Ning Zhengrong came.
He had been on guard for most of the night and didn't want to disturb his wife's work, so he waited at home. He couldn't sit still any longer, so he rushed to the Public Security Bureau and then came here.
He quickly took two steps forward, hugged the sad Tang Fengyuan, and comforted her softly.
Yao Zhizhi knew that she had nothing to do here, so she hung the canvas bag on Ning Zhengrong. There was food and water in it, enough for her mother-in-law to replenish her strength.
The couple returned home and sighed.
"Is this Lao Hu's attempt to make amends?"
"Well, maybe he confessed before he left, and the organization will be lenient with him."
"He's so thin."
"You must be feeling uneasy. This is all Director Hu's fault."
*
A major case that shocked the provincial capital occurred in Yicheng. There were dozens of cases within the case, which were shocking.
The provincial investigation team arrived and immediately launched a thundering operation. Those who should be held accountable were held accountable, those who should be suspended were suspended, those who should be arrested were arrested, and those who should be rewarded will not be left out.
Even the court opening time was brought forward, and all ordinary cases were put on hold to get rid of these parasites first.
Qi Guoping is ridiculous. He has been thinking about making amends for so long, but now he has no chance at all.
The father and son were thrown into prison together, leaving the poor mute Zhang Cai Ni to suffer humiliation in the Qi family.
Yu Xiulan was even more shameless, accusing this woman of being unlucky for her husband and father-in-law. Otherwise, why would such a big thing happen as soon as she came home?
Yu Xiulan was so angry that she sent Zhang Cai Ni back the next day and asked her father to return the betrothal money.
The other person's father refused to leave, so Yu Xiulan refused to go. Finally, Lao Zhang rushed over and used a combination of coaxing and intimidation to get Yu Xiulan to leave.
What about Zhang Cai Ni?
Oh, I don’t know. Let’s wait and see in two months. If she is not pregnant with an illegitimate child, I will find her a husband.
If you are pregnant, wait until you have an abortion before looking for another one.
Yao Zhizhi's system kept ringing, and the settlement results popped up one by one, but she was not happy at all.
She really suspected that sometimes the success of something did not depend on an effective regulatory system, but on the conscience of the person sitting in that position.
What if Yang Shuming wasn't a man of integrity? What if he was replaced by someone else, someone willing to go along with Director Hu?
Does that mean these scum will continue to run rampant?
The more I think about it, the more I feel that Director Hu and his ilk deserve to die.
However, after all this trouble, many positions became vacant in Yicheng, and it was easy for my second sister to transfer to another job, which was a blessing in disguise.
The unjust case of Lu Henian's parents was also brought up and retried.
In addition, the management of the publishing house will also be replaced, including those responsible for publication review, all of whom will be wiped out.
When Yao Zhizhi came back from buying groceries that day, she found Zhou Ying and several unfamiliar men and women sitting in the yard.
Judging from their clothes, they should all be government officials.
Yao Zhizhi put down the dishes and politely called her Aunt Zhou.
Zhou Ying quickly stood up and introduced who this cadre was and who that leader was.
Yao Zhizhi greeted everyone one by one and stood in the yard waiting for further instructions.
Zhou Ying held her hand and said with a smile, "We all know that the exposure of this matter is all due to your contribution. Not only did you help collect evidence, but you also bravely chose to report the case and fight the evil forces to the end. For this reason, the organization considers that you and Xiao Qi currently have no formal jobs and wants to arrange some for you. It also helps let the people know that the organization will not treat anyone who has made contributions unfairly."
Yao Zhizhi smiled and said, "I didn't do anything, I just collected and sorted out the clues. The main ones are the people who reported the situation first, as well as the frontline criminal police and police officers."
"Let's put things one way or the other. There are so many people who know the inside story, but no one came forward to call the police." Zhou Ying still admired Yao Zhizhi very much. Although it seemed that there was no big deal in taking the initiative to stand up, in the environment at that time, one needed to be prepared for retaliation.
It really takes great courage and determination.
Several other cadres also praised Yao Zhizhi highly.
Since that’s the case... Yao Zhizhi stopped being so pretentious. She asked for a job at the publishing house so that the couple could live together.
One is responsible for reviewing and the other is responsible for the illustration department.
As for her own revolutionary story, it was still published in the Yicheng Daily and had no impact.
After all, reviewing your own manuscript sounds a lot like taking a backdoor.
By the way... this was a rare opportunity. She glanced at her third brother, who was busy teasing Little Star, and asked, "Can my brother get a job? He's very smart and was once accepted into university."
Zhou Ying comforted him, "We've understood his situation and discussed it with him. He said there's no rush and that things are fine as they are now. Don't worry, we'll keep a position for him and find a temporary replacement for him for now."
"What about Lu Henian?" Yao Zhizhi still felt sorry for her cousin. He had also contributed to this case and his contribution was indispensable.
Zhou Ying understood and explained, "He'll have to wait until his parents' case is fully heard before making any arrangements. Right now, we're planning on having him go to a government agency to gain experience. Although he'll start as a clerk, as long as he works hard, he'll have a promising future. He can be considered to be taking over his parents' job."
"That's good." Yao Zhizhi felt relieved. With a formal job, Lu Henian could also find a wife and live a good life.
Zhou Ying smiled and reminded him, "There's a woman from out of town who married into a family with connections, and she's also interested in your job. Her parents are from the neighboring city of Weicheng, and she even tried to get us a backdoor, but we flatly refused. You better watch your back and don't let them make a fool of you."
Yao Zhizhi understood that this was a rare opportunity, so she would definitely perform well. As for that person with connections, she would just not bother to provoke him.
She asked what the person with connections was doing now?
Zhou Ying sighed, "We assigned her a proofreading job, but she's not very happy about it. She's still arguing with her family, but we're not going to bother with it. It's up to her whether she wants it or not. She was so angry that she went home with the kids, saying she needs to think about it. We can't do anything about it. After all, her father-in-law made a great contribution in reporting this incident, so we'll keep this proofreading job for her. The other two proofreaders will have to work harder for a while."
It was hard to comment on Yao Zhizhi, since I didn't know her. I just smiled and let it go.
The couple wanted to invite these leaders to dinner at their home, but they all refused, saying that they could not take a single needle or thread from the people.
After the leaders left, Yao Zhizhi still felt like she was dreaming. Just like that, she got a job?
Wouldn't it be much easier to run a magazine then?
Of course, she would follow the procedures and hold a meeting to apply, and would not be the kind of person who abuses public resources for personal gain.
During lunch, my mother-in-law came back. She had been sighing these days, worried that she would be held accountable after Lao Hu's death.
Fortunately, the handling opinions came out today. Lao Hu had confessed all the clues he knew to Yang Shuming before his death. He can be regarded as making amends for his mistakes and defending justice with his life, which is worthy of praise.
He was eventually named a martyr.
Tang Fengyuan finally got rid of a worry and his appetite improved a lot.
Ning Zhengrong helped her pick up some food. Seeing that she was reluctant to speak, he took the initiative to mention, "Your mother might be getting a promotion."
"Promotion?" The couple put down their bowls and chopsticks and said in unison.
Tang Fengyuan rolled his eyes. "It's not confirmed yet. Why are you so eager to show off? What if it's not me? I don't know how disappointed the child will be."
Ning Zhengrong smiled and said, "It has to be you. You killed the criminals with your own hands. It would be unreasonable not to promote you. Besides, your director has been transferred to take charge of the prison guard work. You and Lao Qiao are the most senior in your station. You will definitely be the one to be chosen."
Tang Fengyuan still didn't want to open the wine jar mid-game, so he put some food into Ning Zhengrong's bowl with his chopsticks and said calmly, "That's hard to say. Even eating can't stop your mouth."
Ning Zhengrong smiled and was happy even when he was given the cold shoulder.
In the afternoon, someone from the publishing house came to inform the couple to get ready and start work in three days.
Yao Zhizhi quickly took Qi Changxiao to the publishing house to familiarize herself with the situation.
Unexpectedly, it received a warm welcome from the publishing house.
The ordinary employees have suffered from the Hu Jia couple for a long time, and now they have new colleagues, everyone is very curious.
Although they didn't know what the couple had done, those who were arranged to come in at this time were either suppressed by Director Hu's family or had made meritorious contributions, right?
As for what kind of merit he has achieved, that is not clear.
The couple's desks were filled with small gifts.
Zongzi, rice cakes, salted duck eggs, bread, egg cakes, twisted dough sticks, biscuits, malted milk...
How can I collect Yao Zhizhi?
I simply suggested setting up a food corner in the publishing house lobby, where people could eat when they were hungry during work. “Those who are willing to share should not write their names, and those who are not willing should write their names. This will prevent people from taking the wrong food.”
Everyone thought this was a good suggestion and no one forced Yao Zhizhi to accept it. In the end, they all watched the couple leave with a smile.
Turning around to discuss:
"I don't know if they can get along well."
"Smiling, it should be okay, right?"
"But they refused to accept even this little snack. If we make a mistake in our work in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get away with it."
"It's better than having to give gifts to Hu Jia every month, right?"
"That's true."
*
There are many new faces in the women's prison, and the single cells are bustling again.
As for the white walls of the single room that were originally planned to be repainted, for some reason they were not repainted.
Yao Jingjing listened to these women talking and cursing all day long, and she probably guessed what was happening outside.
She was quite curious about who the person was who reported the case. Wasn't he afraid of retaliation from Director Hu and others?
Hu Jia lived next door to her and said nothing when he heard this.
Next door, a woman curled her lips and said, "I don't know who reported the case. The Public Security Bureau is protecting that person very well. Maybe they are afraid of retaliation."
Another woman sneered, "That's not that difficult. Just look at who stepped up after we were arrested. Doesn't that narrow the scope?"
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe they do good deeds without leaving their name behind, and don't want any work rewards."
"Don't come here, there's no gain without early rise."
Amidst the discussions, a woman was crying sadly.
Yao Jingjing was curious: "Why are you crying?"
"My man is dead, can't I cry?"
"How did your man die?"
"He was shot dead on the spot by a female police officer."
"Policewoman? Is her last name Tang?"
"I think so. I don't know her. I just know she's a woman."
"That's it. And yourself, what brings you in here?"
"I..." The woman was speechless and looked away. Silence is golden.
She and her husband secretly sold raw materials from the feed station, and they might be convicted of speculation and sentenced to death.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Yao Jingjing asked other people to see if there was any other information.
"That policewoman's name is indeed Tang Fengyuan. I heard before I came in that she might be getting a promotion, at least to deputy director."
"Is this true?" Yao Jingjing suddenly felt unhappy. What kind of luck did Yao Zhizhi have? Her mother-in-law was going to be the director?
Even if he is just a deputy, it is enough to make people flatter him.
It makes me angry just thinking about it.
No, she had to find someone to verify it, and applied to the prison guard that day to see her family.
Unexpectedly, it was Yao Taotao who came, carrying a basket on her back, and the child in the basket was sleeping soundly.
Yao Jingjing looked at the child's legs sticking out of the backpack, then looked at the height of the backpack, and suspected that the child was at least two years old.
I couldn't help but wonder: "Haven't you been married for less than two years? Your child is already this big?"
