Qi Tongwei is a shrewd and calculating person, while Hou Liangping is a dedicated and devoted person

The staff of the joint investigation team looked at each other in bewilderment and were deadlocked for a moment.

What Zhao Ruili reported was beyond the scope of her authority. There was no land use permit procedure at all. A lot of work has already been done on the project. If she doesn't do anything about it, she would be committing dereliction of duty. But if she does, acts of extortion can only be handed over to the Public Security Bureau. But there are many things involved here. What if the Public Security Bureau pushes the case back?

"Ms. Zhao, don't worry. According to your report, it has exceeded the scope of land inspection. We have to transfer the relevant clues, but we also have to ensure that we can hand them over. But in the current situation, we suggest that you stop using the land and keep it as it is, so that we can discuss any problems in the future."

"It doesn't make sense for you to do this. You can choose not to investigate, but you can't ask me to stop working, right?" Zhao Ruiling was instantly unhappy.

"I'm afraid that this matter will develop in a direction that is not favorable to you. You invest a lot of money every day. If the land procedures are not approved in the end, won't you bear the losses yourself?"

Qi Tongwei understood what the joint investigation team meant. It was obvious that they did not want to intervene too deeply. This was also true. Under normal circumstances, although the specifications of the joint investigation team were quite high, they were mainly temporary units and would be disbanded after the mission was completed. The same was true for today's joint investigation team. However, when they met Qi Tongwei, they could not let them go so easily.

"Comrade, this matter is not that complicated, right?" Qi Tongwei stepped forward to negotiate.

"Brother, come here for a moment, let's talk," said a member of the joint investigation team.

"Dude, I think you have the temperament of someone who works in the system. I don't know what your relationship with Boss Zhao is, but I want to tell you that this matter is very big, and the bigger it is, the more we can't handle it. You see, the main function of our unit is to inspect, but who are we actually inspecting? Those who dare to work without the procedures are not ordinary people. You must know it better than me."

This old man from the joint investigation team is obviously a seasoned expert, and is definitely a master of Tai Chi. He can deceive people by appealing to their emotions and reasoning with them.

Qi Tongwei had long seen through his trick. The essence of not wanting to care is fear. The more you fear something, the more I will give it to you.

"Brother, you and I both do this. There is a word we are all very familiar with, and that is dereliction of duty. What you are doing is dereliction of duty!"

"Little brother, you are too young. Do you know what the role of the Joint Investigation Team is? Why must the Joint Investigation Team be formed? Once it is disbanded, many people will be unable to find anyone to handle many issues. Who will be responsible for the dereliction of duty? No one will be responsible for the dereliction of duty!"

"I don't want to talk to you anymore, Liangping, come and connect with the comrades from the joint investigation team," Qi Tongwei greeted Hou Liangping.

"Hello, I am Hou Liangping from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. I would like to conduct a disciplinary review of your suspected dereliction of duty before you disband..."

"Dude, who is investigating whom here?"

……

The joint investigation team is composed of inspection teams from two prefecture-level cities, so the Provincial Construction Committee is the direct superior of the joint investigation team. If the case needs to be transferred, it must also be transferred to the provincial agency at the same level. In this way, the extortion case of Lin Bo and Liu Hongquan was directly handed over to the Provincial Public Security Department.

The difference between soliciting bribes and extortion lies in whether money is received or not. Obviously, under this crime, extortion is slightly less serious than soliciting bribes.

But with Hou Liangping around, the matter could not be handled in this way. He found evidence that Liu Hongquan and Lin Bo had accepted bribes several times, and also discovered a large amount of cash in their residences. For a time, this case became the focus of the entire Handong.

Provincial Party Committee Office Building, Shen Guodong’s office.

"What on earth does Hou Liangping want to do? At this critical juncture, he is looking for trouble for me again!" Shen Guodong questioned Liu Haifeng.

"Secretary Guodong, this is also Liangping's job," Liu Haifeng replied, his tone full of helplessness.

"Then why didn't he report it? Don't you have to report when the Discipline Inspection Commission handles cases? At least you have to report it to the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, right?"

"How about we put this matter aside for now?"

"Put it aside? How will the new secretary look at me? Will he say that I, Shen Guodong, left a mess behind?"

"Secretary Guodong, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on Hou Liangping. After all, this matter happened here. He reported it, so we have to accept it!"

"Who reported it?"

"I looked at the case file and it was the Shanshui Group, and the legal representative was Zhao Lichun's second daughter."

"So now that you mention it, this matter is unusual, right?"

Liu Haifeng nodded.

"Let's cut the Gordian knot and get this over with quickly. Otherwise, if it drags on for too long, nothing will happen."

"Secretary Guodong, leave this matter to me. I will do Hou Liangping's work. We must not let him act on his own again!"

"I have been following Hou Liangping for a while. What can I say? If he is as good as Gao Yuliang boasts, he would not have been handed over to you, Secretary Haifeng!"

"Secretary Guodong, I don't mind. The team is led, not selected. I am confident that I can correct Hou Liangping!"

When saying goodbye to Shen Guodong, Liu Haifeng almost cursed in his heart.

This Hou Liangping is so bold that he dares to arrest anyone he wants. Now he has become familiar with Gao Yuliang. I heard that he even dared to transfer the police without authorization. Isn't this against the law?

The most important thing is that this young man acted too quickly. He had already handled the case before his superiors were fully aware of the situation. As for Liu Hongquan's case, if nothing unexpected happened, it was already a done deal and all the procedures had been completed. The only thing left was to transfer it to the judicial authorities.

"Hou Liangping, come here!" Liu Haifeng wanted to train him personally this time.

"Secretary Haifeng, I want to report to you the latest progress of the case!"

"No need for that. Just hurry up and do whatever you can. Hurry up and do it!"

"Don't worry, I've already taken action!"

"That's fine. You did a good job this time. What does the court say?"

"Court? Haven't you reached the court yet?"

"Why did you do anything before going to court? Where have you been?"

"Secretary Haifeng, I haven't handed over the case file yet. When I say take action, I mean to use Liu Hongquan as a breakthrough point to pull out the Construction Committee!"

Liu Haifeng's head buzzed.

Isn't this simply doing things in the opposite direction?

Secretary Shen wants to cut the Gordian knot and characterize the matter before he leaves office, so that both the superiors and the subordinates can come to a conclusion.

That's great. Are they really going to catch corrupt officials in large numbers?

"Hou Liangping, who did you consult about this matter?"

"Do we need to ask for instructions? The clues have been found, they must stand trial!"

"Okay, Hou Liangping, that's it. I'll arrange for you to go on a business trip right away!"

"Traveling on a case?"

“Further study!”

"What about my case?"

"When you come back after completing your studies, I'll do it for you!"
