Qi Tongwei: Little Jinzi, called plants during work hours

"Isn't this Secretary Lin's voice? Why is he back?"

Zhao Lidong said with a dark face, as if he was asking Secretary Wang, but also as if he was talking to himself.

He had already recognized that the man speaking outside was Lin Qiwen, Secretary of the Jinghai Municipal Party Committee and the top leader of Jinghai City.

There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are kings.

If the municipal party secretary is absent, Zhao Lidong, the mayor, will naturally be the highest executive officer in Jinghai City.

But now, the top leader has returned, and Zhao Lidong has to retreat to his rightful position.

Outside the Municipal Party Committee Building, Lin Qiwen was patiently calming everyone's emotions.

"Comrades, I promise you that I will thoroughly investigate Director Qi and give everyone a satisfactory explanation."

Lin Qiwen promised in a kind tone.

These ordinary people also knew that the municipal party secretary in front of them was a higher-ranking official than Zhao Lidong, so they all calmed down for a while.

"Secretary Lin, this is all Zhao Lidong's fault. Hurry and find him."

Some people were afraid that Secretary Lin had just returned and didn't understand the situation yet, so they hurried to explain to him.

"Don't worry, I've already understood the details."

Lin Qiwen had a smile on his face, but he was already furious in his heart.

When he saw the news interruptions on the TV channel, he knew that things were very bad.

Afterwards, Provincial Party Secretary Zhao Lichun called him personally and scolded him harshly.

Thinking of Zhao Lichun's unfriendly tone, Lin Qiwen cursed Zhao Lidong in his heart.

"Go, get Mayor Zhao and Secretary Zhang from the Discipline Inspection Commission."

The secretary beside him nodded in agreement and trotted away.

It has been raining in Jinghai these days, and even at noon, it still doesn't feel warm.

Outside the municipal party committee building, the cold wind was mixed with drizzle, and many people began to tremble slightly.

Municipal Party Secretary Lin Qiwen did not hide, but stood in the drizzle like the ordinary people present, waiting for the arrival of the two "culprits".

A few minutes later, Zhao Lidong and Secretary Zhang of the Discipline Inspection Commission finally arrived at the scene.

In fact, Zhao Lidong had heard what Lin Qiwen said a long time ago.

It's just that he was a little afraid of the return of the top leader, so he trembled and dragged on for several minutes, and only walked out reluctantly after Secretary Zhang came.

"Secretary Lin, why are you back?"

Zhao Lidong trotted forward, pretending to be surprised, as if he only knew about the return of the boss at this moment.

"Humph! If I don't come back, won't Jinghai be turned upside down by you?"

No matter how good Lin Qiwen's temper is, he can no longer tolerate it at this moment.

You know, no matter what trouble happens in Jinghai, the first person the higher-ups will find is him, the top leader.

If there is any major responsibility, it will be borne by him as the top leader.

So, in the end, Zhao Lidong had to be held responsible for the mess he made. How could he not be angry?

Without waiting for Zhao Lidong to reply, Lin Qiwen immediately turned to Secretary Zhang of the Discipline Inspection Commission and asked:

"I'm asking you, have you found any results from the investigation into Qi Tongwei's case? Tell me clearly!"

Secretary Zhang's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to see Zhao Lidong's expression.

"Who are you looking at? Tell the truth in front of all these people!"

Lin Qiwen's face flushed red, and he shouted at Secretary Zhang in the harshest tone.

"The investigation… the investigation has made it clear that Qi Tongwei has not committed any crime."

Looking at Lin Qiwen's angry eyes and the almost cannibalistic expressions of the people in front, Secretary Zhang of the Discipline Inspection Commission finally told the truth tremblingly.

Upon hearing this, there was another commotion among the crowd.

These people were all angry. Since the investigation had been completed, why was Qi Tongwei still being detained?

The top leader of Jinghai City also wants to clarify this issue:

"Since you've already investigated everything, why don't you release Qi Tongwei?"

Lin Qiwen's tone was so cold that the air around him seemed to have dropped several degrees.

Just because of such a simple matter, the whole Handong Province was in an uproar. How could he, the secretary of the Jinghai Municipal Party Committee, not be angry?

"I……"

This time, Secretary Zhang really didn't dare to speak. He didn't know how to answer this sharp question.

At this moment, Zhao Lidong suddenly stepped forward and shouted angrily:

"Secretary Zhang, you are beyond measure! How could you detain our good comrade for so long? Do you have any respect for organizational discipline?"

Zhao Lidong's face seemed to turn red with anger, and he looked righteous.

While speaking, he also glanced at Secretary Zhang, as if he meant something.

Secretary Zhang's chest was heaving, and he seemed to be preparing to argue something.

But in the end, he said nothing.

Not to mention, Zhao Lidong's pretentious appearance might really deceive many people who don't know the specific situation.

But everyone present, whether they were ordinary people or Lin Qiwen who had just returned, had long been aware of what Zhao Lidong had done.

Therefore, Zhao Lidong's move not only failed to deceive them, but only made these people even more angry.

"Zhao Lidong, doesn't this matter have anything to do with you?"

Lin Qiwen walked forward slowly and asked condescendingly.

"Secretary Lin, I don't know anything about this matter."

Zhao Lidong still holds onto hope.

Hearing this, Lin Qiwen's face suddenly showed anger:

"You think I don't know that this incident started with the conflict between you and Qi Tongwei."

As the top leader of Jinghai City, he naturally has many trustworthy people in various departments under him.

So, on his way back, he analyzed the whole thing in detail.

However, no definite evidence has been found yet.

Therefore, the issue of holding Zhao Lidong accountable will be discussed later.

"Now, immediately, bring Qi Tongwei out to me!"

Lin Qiwen ordered sternly.

He knew that the most important thing now was to calm everyone down and prevent the situation from escalating further.

Releasing Qi Tongwei is the best and only solution at the moment.

"I'll send someone over right away."

Secretary Zhang of the Discipline Inspection Commission responded with a hint of panic.

"You go there yourself!"

Lin Qiwen stared at him with a serious expression.

Secretary Zhang did not dare to delay, so he had to drag his slightly fat body and trot back to the office building.

After a few minutes, Qi Tongwei slowly walked out of the Municipal Party Committee Building.

He was still wearing the orange vest that criminals were supposed to wear.

The moment they saw Qi Tongwei, the crowd became excited again.

But this time, they were no longer excited with anger, but moved with joy.

The moment Qi Tongwei saw everyone, he was also shocked.

Because he had been locked up in the Discipline Inspection Commission's office, he had no idea what was happening outside.

However, when he saw these familiar faces and the excitement they showed after discovering him, his eyes gradually became moist.

Obviously, he gradually understood what happened from these people's reactions.

"Comrade Qi Tongwei, on behalf of the Municipal Party Committee, I want to express my apologies to you."

At this time, the municipal party secretary Lin Qiwen slowly walked over.

Qi Tongwei naturally recognized the man's identity and said modestly:

"Mistakes happen at work, that's inevitable."

"I didn't expect that such a small thing of mine would cause so much trouble to everyone. I'm really sorry."

Qi Tongwei naturally understood the art of speaking. No matter what happened in the officialdom of Jinghai, he could not say it openly.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the top leader of Jinghai.

Hearing this, a hint of gratitude flashed in Lin Qiwen's eyes.

He looked at Qi Tongwei with admiration, and when he was about to say something else, he suddenly noticed the orange vest he was wearing.

Lin Qiwen worked his way up from the grassroots level, so he naturally knew what this little vest meant.

In the blink of an eye, he looked at Secretary Zhang of the Discipline Inspection Commission with displeasure and said coldly:

"Secretary Zhang, what's going on with this piece of clothing? Is this how Comrade Qi Tongwei was interrogated by your Discipline Inspection Commission?"

Secretary Zhang was really confused this time. He really didn't know why Qi Tongwei was wearing prisoner clothes.

At this moment, Qi Tongwei suddenly spoke and said with a faint smile:

"This dress has nothing to do with Secretary Zhang. Mayor Zhao ordered someone to put it on me."
