"Oh~ How could your call just now have gone straight to the director's office without a relay? Even if you're making up stories, you can't fool us honest people like this!"
Seeing Tian Xiaolan's expression that said, "Do you believe me or not?" and that she had to ask clearly, I knew I had met a tough opponent.
Even if the man standing next to her is tall and strong, he probably wouldn't dare to fight in the street. If you meet such a person, as long as you don't use violence and can talk to him in a nice way, nothing will happen.
"Forget it if you don't believe me. I'm lying to you. What do you have that I should worry about?"
Wu Dehua, who was sitting in the room, waited for so long and saw that the work had not been completed, so he said, "Hurry up and finish it, I want to go home."
Just now, Li Weimin saw him with his own eyes, walking to work with his hands behind his back. Just a few minutes later, he was about to get off work. Those who didn't know him would think he was just taking a walk. No wonder he was so indifferent. After so many years, our place is still as poor as ever.
"Okay, I'll finish it right away." Zhou Dayong replied to the room.
"Did you hear that? The director has spoken. If you stay here, you'll suffer the consequences!"
"I won't eat your fruit. Who knows if it's drugged?" Tian Xiaolan said as she was about to walk in.
At this time, a car drove up from outside with several people sitting inside. The people in the car stuck their heads out and said to the gatekeeper, "Open the door."
Wu Dehua was still sleeping in the room with his eyes closed when he heard the sound of car tires. He saw that the license plate was from the county. Could it be that the letter of complaint he had asked people to submit had taken effect?
"Hello, leader. I'll open it right away." The gatekeeper nodded and smiled at the people in the car. He lifted the wooden pole at the door and respectfully let the car in.
Wu Dehua hurriedly caught up with him, laughing so hard that his eyes were invisible: "Hello, leader, how did you find time to come to us?"
"Why don't you welcome us?" A tall and thin man driving the car looked at him seriously.
"No, no, how could I dare!" Wu Dehua waved his hands quickly, fearing that he would be hated if he was not careful, and then he would not know how he died.
A fat man sat in the back, watching the occasional pedestrian passing by outside, and said, "Of course I'm here for something. I'm thirsty, so don't block me here. If you have something to say, go inside and talk."
"Okay, okay, you guys go in, I'll be there soon." Wu Dehua ran after the car, his tired body sweating, and the flesh on his body trembling because of running.
Li Weimin asked Wei Wenjie: "Who was that man just now? He scared that person."
When the car came just now, Tian Xiaolan had already run to the side. Nowadays, those who can drive such a car are either rich or powerful. When she saw Wu Dehua's attitude, she knew that he was a leader, but she didn't dare to go up and disturb him rashly because she couldn't figure out their personalities.
"You country bumpkins, the people who didn't come are the city leaders. You'd better leave quickly, otherwise you won't know how you died!" The gatekeeper didn't forget to drive people away.
"Uncle, please watch your door. We are outside the door and you have no control over us." Tian Xiaolan didn't want to waste words with him. She was thirsty after walking for so long.
"You must be tired too, come and have some water." Wei Wenjie returned home and brought them two bowls of water.
"Thank you!" Tian Xiaolan took the water and drank a few sips before her thirst was quenched.
In the office, the county investigator came to the mayor's office. Before he could show his work ID, Xiang Ming jumped up from his chair.
"Leader, why didn't you notify me when you came so that I could pick you up!" Xiang Ming pulled out a chair for them to sit, took out the tea leaves he had hidden in the cabinet and put them in the cup, then went outside to get the kettle to pour water.
"No need to brew. We are here to ask you and Shi Shichang a few questions. Where is he? Call him over." The tall and thin man narrowed his eyes and said while looking at the teacup in his hand.
"You've come from so far away, of course you need to drink some water to moisten your throat. Director Wu, please ask Director Shi to come over." Xiang Ming saw Wu Dehua peeking out of the door with a look of anticipation, so he asked him to go. He was a little nervous, not knowing why the higher-ups had called him over.
"Shi Shichang, someone is looking for you in the office. What have you done recently?" Wu Dehua announced the news loudly without closing the door on purpose. People outside the wooden door could hear it. He had a sly smile on his face, and he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth, which made him look even more wretched.
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Shi Shichang put down the things he had not finished and went to the office.
Wu Dehua called Zhou Dayong over and said, "Go and subscribe to them. If there's any bad news from the office, come back and tell me."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
Wu Dehua drank the tea in the cup and waited for his good news.
Inside the mayor's office, he saw two people who came frequently and greeted them skillfully: "Are you here again? What do you want to talk to me about?"
Their eyes almost popped out as they looked at Xiang Ming, as if telling him to stop talking. Although they had not done anything illegal, they were afraid of being framed and hanged.
Shi Shichang wondered if the higher-ups had received the report letter he mentioned and were asking him to go undercover. Now he couldn't hand over the undercover, so he hoped to give them more time to find someone.
The thin man's eyes were filled with indifferent scrutiny: "Don't you know what you've done?"
At this moment, Shi Shichang didn't know that Wu Dehua, under Zhou Dayong's reminder, had squatted down early and intercepted the letter when the postman came to collect it, thinking that it had already been delivered.
Shi Shichang said with a determined look, "You mean that letter? I did it. Everyone has their own responsibility. If you want to punish someone, punish me!"
"Since you have admitted it, we won't ask any more questions. How did you become like this, bullying your colleagues and accusing them of being undercover agents! Is it because he took your outstanding employee position last year?" The short and fat man said without waiting for him to answer and gave what he thought was a reasonable guess.
"What? What are you talking about?" Shi Shichang couldn't understand. What excellent quota? Aren't they here to accuse him of a crime?
"You just admitted it, why are you still pretending to be stupid? Is there any point?"
Shi Shichang's brows furrowed as he defended himself, "What I admit is that I accidentally dropped the undercover agent. It's not like you're wrongly accusing someone. The principle I, Shi Shichang, have always upheld is to work diligently and live a clean life! Where did you get these rumors? They're all false."
Xiang Ming stood aside and spoke for him, "Yes, Director Shi definitely doesn't target anyone at work, he's just probably being bullied." This was the funniest thing he had heard this year. Even if a kitten fell on the street, he would still help it up. How could he possibly frame someone for being an undercover agent? The only possibility was that someone reported them.
The fat man said, "You also said that you are his accomplice. From now on, both of your positions will be suspended. Once we have the results of the investigation, we will hand the job over to someone capable!"
