The police officer frowned immediately, his mouth was tight, and he replied stiffly, "I already said it's inconvenient. Which unit are you from? What do you want to see Director Wu about?"
"Oh, I'm from Shannan County Government..." Li Lin said. He knew very well that it was not appropriate to get too entangled at this moment, so he tried to remain calm in his words.
Hearing this, the policeman showed a strange expression on his face, as if he was a little surprised by this identity, but he didn't ask any more specific questions. He just relaxed his frown a little, raised his hand and pointed to the elevator downstairs to Li Lin, and said, "Go back first, you won't see anyone today."
"What do you mean I can't see anyone? What exactly happened?" A series of questions instantly flooded into Li Lin's mind like a flood that broke through a dam.
His heart sank suddenly, and he was worried that Wu Chengzhu might have encountered an accident!
Could it be that Lu Chengze had attacked him?
Li Lin's hands clenched unconsciously, his nails digging into his palms, and all kinds of possible bad situations flashed through his mind.
After pondering for a moment, he decisively took out his mobile phone and prepared to call Wu Chengzhu, trying to break the deadlock and find out the truth.
At this moment, the door of the office next door suddenly creaked open, and a man walked quickly to Li Lin, grabbed his arm, and said with a smile on his face, appearing to be very close to Li Lin, "Director Li, you are here? Come and sit in my room first... Hehe..."
Li Lin looked up and saw Zhang Chi's familiar face with a slightly stiff smile, his eyes full of pleading, and he kept winking at him, indicating that he should go into the house first. Li Lin was so perceptive that he immediately realized that the matter was not simple, so he put away his phone and followed Zhang Chi into his office.
It was a double office, and Zhang Chi was the only one in the room at the moment.
Zhang Chi was extremely anxious. As soon as he closed the door, without even having time to say hello, he said to Li Lin anxiously, "Director Li, something happened to Director Wu!" His voice trembled slightly, and his eyes were full of fear and helplessness.
"What happened to him?" Li Lin asked nervously, his body leaning forward unconsciously, his eyes fixed on Zhang Chi, as if he wanted to dig out all the truth from him.
Zhang Chi swallowed his saliva and said in a hoarse voice, "Just a while ago, the people from the Yanjing Discipline Inspection Commission suddenly dropped into the provincial department without any prior notice... They are now in Director Wu's office... I don't know what they are searching for or asking... Everyone is saying that Director Wu was reported by someone, and the comrades from the Yanjing Discipline Inspection Commission want to take him away for investigation!"
"Damn! How could this happen!" Li Lin couldn't help but curse under his breath, his face turning pale in an instant.
He was certain in his heart that it must be Lu Chengze's doing again!
That guy will stop at nothing to achieve his goal, and now this move of cutting off the source of support is undoubtedly intended to completely disrupt their plans.
Li Lin's face was solemn, his brows were furrowed so tightly that it seemed as if he could pinch a fly to death. He knew very well that the situation was extremely serious.
Once Wu Chengzhu is taken away for investigation, even if no fault is found in the end, he will probably be transferred from his current job like Mayor Qian did...
Many subsequent impacts instantly came to his mind, especially the situation in Pingyang.
Once Wu Chengzhu falls, Pingyang will inevitably get out of control, and the three provincial police officers suspected of murder will be released soon... In this way, Lu Chengze can reap the benefits and control the situation at will!
Thinking of this, Li Lin did not hesitate and quickly locked the door of Zhang Chi's office. Then he took out his mobile phone, quickly dialed the number, and called Hou Yaodong.
Without waiting for Hou Yaodong to speak, he suppressed his inner turmoil and said calmly, "Director Wu is being investigated by the Yanjing Discipline Inspection Commission..." and then hung up the phone.
He believed that Hou Yaodong would pass the news to Sun Huaide, Li Lan and others as soon as he got the news.
Regardless of whether he could help or not, at least he could find out the motives of the Yanjing Discipline Inspection Commission and what evidence someone had on Wu Chengzhu! Only by figuring this out first could he act at the right time and avoid being too passive.
"Director Li, I think you should go back first... I don't think you will be able to meet Director Wu in person for a while... I will inform you as soon as his case is investigated." Zhang Chi said sincerely, his eyes full of concern.
If it were in the past, if something happened to his superior, he would definitely protect himself and would never get involved with his superior's friends.
But now he is facing Li Lin, a big man of similar age with a mysterious background... He can't help but want to get close to him and make friends with him, hoping to find a little shelter in this chaotic world.
Li Lin patted Zhang Chi on the shoulder twice with gratitude, nodded and said to him, "Thank you!" Those two gentle pats seemed to carry thousands of words, which were recognition and gratitude for Zhang Chi's help at this time.
Zhang Chi nodded calmly, said nothing more, and just looked at Li Lin quietly.
Li Lin took a deep breath, unlocked the door, and walked out calmly.
At this time, he found that the two policemen guarding Wu Chengzhu's door had disappeared, and the door of Wu Chengzhu's office was now half-closed...
Li Lin just took a last look through the crack in the door. The light in the room was dim and he did not see Wu Chengzhu. He only saw a few uniformed Discipline Inspection Commission staff members rummaging through his desk. The documents made a rustling sound, and the sound was like a sharp blade, piercing Li Lin's heart.
He didn't stop, but walked towards the elevator without looking back, each step carrying a certain heaviness.
Just ten meters away from the elevator, there was movement at the door of Wu Chengzhu's office.
While waiting for the elevator, Li Lin subconsciously turned his head to look at the door of Wu Chengzhu's office, only to see two policemen walking out of the room first. Their expressions were serious and cold, and their footsteps were heavy.
