Chapter Eight: Opportunity or Trap?
Before nine o'clock in the evening, the dinner party broke up. Chen Tiande originally arranged for karaoke, but seeing that Lin Chenmu was not interested, he stopped insisting. But even so, he personally sent Lin Chenmu to the door of the restaurant.
He held Lin Chenmu and talked for a long time. The degree of intimacy between them made people who didn't know the inside story think they were such good friends.
Politely declining Chen Tiande's offer to arrange for someone to take him back, Lin Chenmu walked back slowly along the street, facing the evening breeze.
The Grand Bay Restaurant is not very far from his residence.
Lin Chenmu lives in a single dormitory in the municipal government. Although it is an old-fashioned tube building with mottled exterior walls and dark lighting. Even the bathroom and kitchen are shared, but he can have a private personal space, including furniture and appliances.
Everything was ready, and only a symbolic deduction of 30 yuan for water, electricity and rent every month made him very satisfied.
Although it was only early spring, the wind was still a little cold on his face, but he could no longer feel the cold, which made Lin Chenmu, who was a bit drunk, gradually sober up. Along the way, he seemed to feel a slight night breeze.
The wind passes through your fingers in wisps, and you can even see the faint, mottled tree shadows moving and beating on the back of your hands from time to time...
The night in Dongping is still very beautiful, especially in the past two years, huge sums of money have been invested in building a municipal image project. The entire street has been completely renewed, and the dazzling neon lights have colorfully decorated the urban night. Even at this time, the urban area
The commercial street was still bustling but still unabated. It had the feel of a modern metropolis. In the glimpse, beautiful girls dressed in different styles, but all showing enchanting looks, walked past him talking and laughing from time to time. One of them even happened to be unintentional.
There was a slight touch with him. Lin Chenmu could clearly and clearly feel the other person's arm rubbing against his left elbow. There seemed to be a faint smell of perfume floating in the air, as well as the girl's irrepressible
The youthful atmosphere.
Everything was so beautiful and intoxicating, but Lin Chenmu felt that he was incompatible with it all. The intrigues in officialdom seemed to have deteriorated many things, including people's state of mind.
After a long conversation with Yang Weiguo, Lin Chenmu suddenly felt a strong sense of mission and responsibility, as if he had been confused for a long time and finally knew what he wanted to do, and his life became clear.
In both public and private matters, Lin Chenmu's future and destiny are firmly tied to Yang Weiguo. But the problem before him now is that Yang Weiguo, the mayor, is not doing his job comfortably. Although in the afternoon, he tried his best to
Everything he had learned over the past year, whether it was hearsay or not, was all introduced to Yang Weiguo so that he could understand and become familiar with the situation as soon as possible. But firstly, he had only entered the agency not long ago, and secondly, he was in a lowly position.
, I don’t have access to anything of real value, so I guess it won’t be of much help to Yang Weiguo.
What's more, even if Yang Weiguo knew everything, it would be in vain if he couldn't find a way to solve it.
After lowering his head and thinking for a long time to no avail, Lin Chenmu shook his head and turned his head inadvertently, but suddenly caught a familiar figure in the corner of his eyes. He froze for a moment, and when he followed her closely, he saw the woman's back.
It just happened to disappear around the corner, disappearing in a flash.
Lin Chenmu's heart couldn't help but beat wildly, and he couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and chased after him as if he had found a treasure.
To be honest, even he couldn't understand his behavior at this moment, as if at that moment, his body was no longer under his control.
But when Lin Chenmu chased around the corner, he looked around and could no longer find this figure in the bustling crowd. His heart suddenly sank, but he continued to look for it unwillingly, like a headless fly.
After running around and going back and forth several times, I still found nothing, and I couldn't help but feel depressed.
At this time, the mobile phone rang.
Lin Chenmu frowned. Ever since he was officially appointed as Mayor Yang's secretary, his cell phone has not been disconnected. People he knows or don't know have called to congratulate him. He can't show any impatience, so as not to make others think that he is
It is the villain who succeeds.
I took out my cell phone from my pocket and saw that it belonged to Wang Ninghui. Just when I connected it, I heard this guy yelling in a loud voice: "You guys, you don't even tell me that you are promoted, don't you think I'm your brother?"
"You damn brother." Lin Chenmu laughed and cursed. Somehow, hearing this guy's voice made him feel a lot better.
"What's wrong? You don't recognize your brothers after you get promoted? Fortunately, I found a few girls to celebrate for you!" Wang Ninghui complained.
"I'm not free today, cutie, you should keep it for yourself and enjoy it!"
…
After chatting for a while and making an appointment to have a drink together in a few days, we hung up the phone.
Although Wang Ninghui didn't say it, Lin Chenmu also knew that Chu Yunshan must have revealed the news to him. Although Chu Yunshan didn't call him, she kept paying attention to him, which made Lin Chenmu feel a little worried.
It's complicated. He took out the phone and called up Chu Yunshan's number. He pressed his thumb on the send button for a long time. Lin Chenmu finally sighed and did not dial the number.
When I returned to my residence, I saw a well-dressed, pot-bellied middle-aged man standing under the dim street light smoking a cigarette. He looked at the watch on his wrist from time to time, with an anxious expression on his face. Looking at the number of cigarette butts on the ground, he was here.
Time is already running out.
Lin Chenmu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He knew this person. He was the logistics section chief of the Agency Affairs Bureau. He was in charge of the single dormitory where he currently lived. He had dealt with him a lot in the past. In order to be able to
When he wanted to get a house here, Lin Chenmu gritted his teeth and spent more than half a month's salary to buy two Chinese coins for him. Otherwise, how could he have lived in so easily if there were not so many singles in the agency?
But it's so late, why is he here?
Before Lin Chenmu could figure it out, Liang De also saw him, and a bright smile immediately appeared on his face. Before Lin Chenmu could say hello, he threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and walked up quickly, still smiling.
Then he said: "Haha, Xiao Lin, what a coincidence."
"Yes, Section Chief Wang, are you here to inspect again?" Lin Chenmu asked hurriedly.
In order to prevent various safety hazards such as unauthorized connection of wires and obstruction of passages by residents, relevant personnel from the Institutional Affairs Bureau will come here from time to time to conduct inspections. If anyone is found to have violated the regulations, his or her residence qualification will be revoked.
"Haha, yes, just come and take a look." He laughed, his face full of affection. He held Lin Chenmu's hand and shook it vigorously. Then he whispered to Lin Chenmu:
"Xiao Lin, didn't you report to us last time that the house you live in now is damp and leaky? You were too busy to deal with it in time. Now there is a two-bedroom house on the third floor. I will consider changing it for you...
…”
Lin Chenmu was stunned for a moment, and then he wanted to understand the reason. He did not refuse and said with a smile: "Then I'll trouble Section Chief Wang."
"No trouble, no trouble." *** De smiled with a smile on his face, and his smile seemed to give people a sense of relief. Then he took out a key from his pocket and handed it to Lin Chenmu and said: "Unit 4, 306,
You can have it anytime you want. I've asked someone to prepare everything inside. If you need anything else, just let me know."
Looking at Section Chief Wang's back, Lin Chenmu couldn't help but smile. In just one day, he felt the power of power. No wonder there are so many people trying their best to climb up. That feeling is just...
Just like taking opium, once you become addicted, you can never quit.
When he came upstairs, he opened the door and before the lights were turned on, Lin Chenmu saw a thick cowhide envelope on the ground, which seemed to have been stuffed through the crack in the door.
"What is this?" Lin Chenmu was a little confused. There was no reason why someone would send money overnight just after he became Mayor Yang's secretary, right?
When he opened it, he saw several pieces of paper inside, which were densely written, but they were all printed. He took a curious look, but upon taking a look, he couldn't help but be stunned by the contents.
As I continued to read, I became even more shocked. The blood in my body rushed rapidly, and my palms became wet with sweat.
After a long while, Lin Chenmu breathed a long sigh of relief, but what he just saw was still like a big mountain, weighing heavily on his heart, almost suffocating him and making him unable to breathe.
He simply could not have imagined that what it contained was actually some of the inside story of the collapse of the Jihe Highway Bridge that caused a commotion across the country some time ago and caused a major earthquake in the officialdom of Dongping. However, it was completely different from what Lin Chenmu knew. The details involved
The character was something he couldn't even imagine. Lin Chenmu couldn't imagine how big a ripple it would cause in Dongping City if the content on it were to be spread outside.
After the initial shock, Lin Chenmu couldn't help but think about it. The material said that he had a nose and eyes, but was it true? If it was true, he must be able to understand the ins and outs of the matter in such detail.
Someone who knows the inside story, what is the purpose of deliberately stuffing materials into his room? If he just wants to expose all this, wouldn't it be better to send these to the relevant discipline inspection commission, public security and other departments?
? Why did you find yourself? Do you want to use your hand to give it to Mayor Yang?...
When he thought of this, Lin Chenmu felt more and more likely that this was possible. However, he had just become Mayor Yang's secretary, and the other party could actually get the news, and he also knew where he lived. Lin Chenmu had to admire the other party's ability.
He has great magical powers. You must know that not everyone can enter the single dormitory of the municipal government. The gatekeeper, Uncle Liu, is famous for his inability to recognize six emotions. Even Secretary-General Huang Zhiliang was stopped by him at first.
The outside is not allowed in.
Lin Chenmu's first reaction was to quickly tell Mayor Yang the news. Isn't he worried about not being able to find a suitable entry point? Isn't this the best entry point? Thinking that he could just become Yang Weiguo's secretary
After helping him, Lin Chenmu excitedly took out his mobile phone and was about to call Yang Weiguo, but his fingers were pressed on the dial button, but his heart couldn't help but move, and the movements of his hands stopped.
It's so easy, could it be a trap set by others? The officialdom is like a battlefield, full of dangers, traps and thorns. If you are not careful, you will fall into an irreversible situation. Isn't the former mayor Dai Qingguang a living example?
For a time, all kinds of distracting thoughts came one after another, and Lin Chenmu fell into deep contemplation.
