That morning, Feng Yuxing drank a cup of tea and walked to the window, taking in the cool autumn air and the scent of harvest. Then, the city party secretary, Yan Baiyang, called and asked him to come to the party committee to discuss something.
On this clear and crisp autumn morning, Feng Yuxing, after sipping a cup of leisurely black tea, walked to the window and let the crisp morning breeze caress his cheeks. He took a deep breath of the air with the faint fragrance of osmanthus and immersed himself in this quiet and poetic early autumn scenery.
At this time, the sun was shining brightly outside the window, slowly falling on the yellow leaves outside the window, making them look like ripe rice.
When he closed his eyes, a scene of bountiful harvest entered his mind, as if nature was telling him that a year of hard work would soon bring rich rewards.
At this quiet and pleasant moment, a crisp ringtone broke the morning tranquility. It turned out to be a call from the Municipal Party Secretary Yan Baiyang.
The voice on the other end of the phone was serious yet magnetic, prompting Feng Yuxing to immediately go to the Municipal Party Committee for an urgent meeting to discuss important matters.
Feng Yuxing did not ask Yan Baiyang why he asked him to go to the past, because he had keenly realized that his plan of "kicking the snake out of its hole" had worked.
Of course, Feng Yuxing cannot judge the effectiveness of the plan at the moment. This will only be clear after in-depth communication between the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Party Committee Secretary Yan Baiyang and Deputy Mayor Gong Yongli.
Feng Yuxing's guess was correct. As soon as he entered Yan Baiyang's office, he saw Deputy Mayor Gong Yongli and Yan Baiyang chatting.
"Comrade Yuxing is here! Sit down, sit down!" Yan Baiyang happily invited Feng Yuxing to sit down, "Yuanxian, make a cup of tea!"
Gong Yongli was full of enthusiasm and gratitude towards Feng Yuxing, because Feng Yuxing not only cleared his son's name, but also freed him from worry and fear.
If it weren't for Feng Yuxing's help, even if his son Gong Tinghui hadn't been arrested, his son might have always been wronged and spent the rest of his life in endless worry and fear.
According to Gong Yongli, he received a call from a stranger last night. The stranger claimed that he had the three key figures that Feng Yuxing and others were searching for, and expressed his willingness to hand these figures over to help his son Gong Tinghui completely get out of the predicament.
Of course, this proposal came with two very strong conditions: first, the three people must be tried in the provincial department; second, Changming County must release all people arrested in the development zone.
The content is simple and clear.
"What are your two leaders' opinions?" As subordinates, Feng and Xing had to wait for their leaders to speak or give instructions.
"We had a chat before you arrived, and we thought that since we still haven't found any information about those three people, we can slowly look for them. Gong Tinghui isn't being charged with manslaughter, so he won't accept their offer!"
Yan Baiyang looked at Feng Yuxing and spoke at a normal speed without any pauses, proving that he and Gong Yongli had already communicated.
"Personally, I think releasing them isn't impossible. They don't expect us to release them, and that's not their goal. However, wanting these three people to be tried at the provincial government office is one of their goals!"
Feng Yuxing thought about it and made his judgment.
"Then what is their other ultimate goal?" Feng Yuxing's words made Gong Yongli confused for a moment. Since releasing people was not the goal, why did they mention releasing people to set up a maze?
"The provincial department's trial is a prerequisite for their success and is crucial. Since provincial department affairs are beyond our scope of intervention, under their operation, their trial process can be closed with a hasty record.
When the rumors die down a bit, they can rely on their connections in the officialdom and continue to apply for sentence reductions. It will be easy for them to be released from prison early!
If this plan succeeds, the case can be completely erased from the police system, and no one will be held accountable for the mastermind behind it.
Frankly speaking, this strategy is designed to make us believe that there is no one behind this, because the real murderers are the three people who turned themselves in! "
Feng and Xing conducted an in-depth analysis and reached a final conclusion. They added, "This is exactly what it means to cover up one's own faults!"
"Comrade Yuxing, if that stranger calls again, how should I respond to him?" Gong Yongli had no idea for a moment.
Feng Yuxing thought for a moment and said:
"If he calls you again, you can tell him this: you can handle the trial of the person in the provincial capital, but you can't decide whether to release the person arrested in the Changming County Development Zone. Put the blame on me!"
"Since we know these three people they pushed to take the blame, why should we agree to one of their demands!" Gong Yongli still couldn't understand the meaning of Feng Yuxing's suggestion.
"Their request is undoubtedly an overt conspiracy, clear and direct. Their boldness in making such a request stems from their deep belief that we are currently unable to quickly and accurately locate the three key individuals.
Or even if we try our best to find them, the time, energy and resources required will be extremely huge.
The person who made this move thought too highly of himself, believing that he could control the situation and had a firm confidence in his own goals. They seemed to have foreseen that
If we choose to pursue this matter, we will inevitably face a huge investment in manpower and material resources, and this will undoubtedly be an outcome where the risks and benefits are not equal. Therefore, in my judgment, this person must be a businessman who likes to settle accounts.
The reason why I agreed to them was to wash away the stain on your son Gong Tinghui more thoroughly. In addition, even if those three people were found, facing the complex reality and social relations, they might not easily tell the truth, or even if they told the truth, they might be interfered with by some force and change their testimony.
Now, let's go with the flow and make sure they don't feel like they've won!
I also want to see where their connections are within our higher-ups in the police system! 'God knows what's right, and no one is spared.' Then, let them taste the bitterness of shooting themselves in the foot!"
Feng Yuxing's tone and demeanor didn't reveal any psychological burden he felt in agreeing to the stranger's offer. This was because he had weighed the pros and cons and made what he believed to be the most appropriate decision.
He appeared casual, his eyes firm and calm. He had long suspected the truth behind the incident was connected to the Jing family in the provincial capital, but now was not the time to pursue them relentlessly. He also believed that Yan Baiyang and Gong Yongli were also aware of the situation.
"Comrade Yongli, I think Comrade Yuxing's suggestion is still feasible. Let's let the situation stabilize for a while!" Yan Baiyang also understood Feng Yuxing's intentions, and decided to play the long game and wait for the big fish.
