Pi Yong wanted to call Lan Qiming directly to report the matter, but he had two concerns that prevented him from making that call: First, the evidence was insufficient and the explanation on the phone was unclear, which made it difficult for Lan Qiming to make an accurate judgment.

and instructions are nothing more than instructions to re-investigate, which is what Zuo Xiuquan can do; secondly, skip-level reporting, if it is reported directly to Lan Qiming, the latter will most likely call and instruct Zuo Xiuquan, which will make Zuo Xiuquan very upset.

Not happy.

Of course, Pi Yong is conservative and cautious, and he hesitates to do things at critical moments. If Ma Ming encountered such a thing, he would report it directly to Lan Qiming very decisively.

However, Zuo Xiuquan started out as a high school politics teacher, became the director of education, then became a member of the Standing Committee, and finally reached his current position. He has never worked in the field of public security, procuratorate, and law. He lacks experience and is not tough on his skills. He likes to solve problems through ideological and political education.

Most of the time it is possible, but unjust and wrongful convictions like this must be resolved through legal means.

At this time, I only heard Pi Yonghui's report: "I asked Member Yinshi of the Standing Committee and Secretary Qiming will arrive at the county party committee guest house at about 4 o'clock."

Lan Qiming is from Zhuzhou. After coming to Feng County, his family has not come over, so he has been living in the guest house. The guest house is behind the county committee, with the small north gate leading directly there. There are dedicated waiters to provide logistical services.

Zuo Xiuquan nodded and said: "You leave the relevant information and wait nearby while I sort out my thoughts and report back at 4:30. If necessary, I will ask you to see the secretary."

Everyone was ordered to disperse. Because Pi Yong had to prepare for Lan Qiming's investigation tomorrow, he had to rush back to Baoshan Township to go through the process in person and check the report draft.

At this moment, Zuo Xiuquan was sitting in the office, looking at the files, and thinking about how to make a more appropriate report. At this time, someone knocked on the door, and he said without raising his head: "Come in!"

"Lao Zuo, I want to ask you for a cup of tea." Zhang Meng's hearty and powerful voice sounded.

Zuo Xiuquan suddenly raised his head, and two people came in, the county magistrate Zhang Meng and Shen Dong.

He was shocked, stood up from his seat, and immediately said with a smile on his face: "Oh, the county magistrate is coming, Director Shen, you didn't inform me in advance, so I can prepare." He stepped out and shook hands with the two of them warmly.

After shaking hands, we sat down and expertly brewed Gongfu tea.

The three of them were drinking tea and chatting. When they were about to get to the point, Shen Dong stood up, took sonorous and powerful steps, and closed the door tightly.

Zuo Xiuquan guessed that Shen Dong saw that the situation was over and had brought in the county magistrate as a reinforcement. How should I respond? Let's adapt accordingly.

I just heard the county magistrate say: "Shen Dong reported to me a case involving a cadre in Baoshan Township who was suspected of molesting women. I came to you to discuss how to deal with it properly."

Zuo Xiuquan had a smile on his face, but did not laugh out loud. This effect was between politeness and seriousness, with a strong sense of proportion. It not only made the leader feel your goodwill, but also showed that he was serious about his work. He was eager

Said: "County Magistrate, please give instructions."

"I know all the ins and outs, so there is no need to discuss it," the county magistrate said. "What I am concerned about is that the police station was not rigorous in this case and handled it wrong. Once it is exposed, it will damage the reputation of our county's public security system and will seriously affect us.

The legal environment and political ecology of the country. Lao Zuo, you are the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee, and you cannot cause trouble on your territory."

What the county magistrate means is that the Ma Ming case is the responsibility of the police station, and this responsibility is just a mistake.

Such an understatement!

Zuo Xiuquan diligently replenished tea for the two of them and said: "The Political and Legal Committee did not do its job well. I accept the criticism from the county magistrate."

He avoided the qualitative question of the case and affirmed some of the views expressed by the leader, but he did not take a position.

The county magistrate smiled and said, "I'm not criticizing you, I just want to hear your opinion on how to handle this case."

"I am preparing to report to the county magistrate and secretary." Zuo Xiuquan once again avoided taking a stand.

Shen Dong still looked calm, but he was actually a little worried because he got the news that the procuratorate was investigating three rape cases of Shen Nan that year. However, he did not understand the progress of the case, so he said: "Secretary Zuo, I will review, Ma In Ming's case, the police station was indeed sloppy. You also know that some grassroots police officers now take the case for granted and do not take it seriously. Now both sides insist on their own opinions and turn the case into a Rashomon case. It is really unclear. It is better to do this, both sides Let’s each make concessions and reconcile.”

"reconciliation?"

"Yes." Shen Dong said with a slightly gentle attitude, "There may not be any criminal issues in this case. Xiong Da, Xiong Er and others met A Qin and Ma Ming in the alley and had a dispute. Ma Ming may After attacking or teasing Aqin, Xiong Da and others got into a fight with Ma Ming, causing Shen Nan's private parts to be injured. It should be no problem if it was a public security case. That Yi Feng had a personal relationship with Xiong Da and Xiong Er, so he deliberately took sides. , it turned into a criminal case. I didn’t understand it so clearly before, and it was indeed a bit biased. I will review it.”

"Shen Nan was seriously injured. It is said that the lower body..." Zuo Xiuquan didn't finish his sentence and looked at Shen Dong with slight surprise.

Shen Dong smiled bitterly and said: "The first injury was not serious, but the lower body was completely broken because there was a car accident on the road. The second injury, and the best time for treatment was missed, so it cannot be completely regarded as Ma Ming's responsibility. Shen Nan, this child, has been spoiled since he was a child. The lesson he learned this time is profound and painful. It will last a lifetime. Therefore, in this case, Secretary Zuo and the procuratorate are still going to do something against him. I am very unhappy. .”

It seems that Shen Dong knew that the procuratorate was investigating Shen Nan's rape case. The strategy of encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao worked.
Chapter completed!
