Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

The examination was progressing smoothly and in an orderly manner. At the same time, Wentao was also working tirelessly and orderly to arrange the staff of the Provincial Public Security Department to conduct an in-depth and detailed investigation into the sale of examination questions.

The public security departments fully utilized their professional capabilities and technical means to carry out all-round reconnaissance operations from multiple angles.

They followed the clues and soon successfully tracked down the mysterious man who sold the test questions mentioned by Li Jianwei.

As the investigation deepened, the shocking truth gradually surfaced.

It turned out that the culprit behind this incident was a prison guard in Liaoan Men's Prison.

This man, driven by greed, has exploited the privileged conditions of the men's prison printing factory in recent years to reap enormous illegal profits. Furthermore, he has cleverly used this middleman, known as a "snakehead," to build a large and complex sales network.

What is even more shocking is that in order to sell the test questions accurately, they spared no expense to bribe some service staff in several hotels near the pilot project.

These bribed service personnel acted as their insiders and assisted them in completing the precise sales of test questions.

However, the net of heaven is vast and nothing can escape it. The staff of the Public Security Department acted quickly and wiped out the criminal gang with lightning speed.

During the subsequent interrogation, these criminals' psychological defenses collapsed and they confessed all their crimes. According to their confessions, a total of 24 people purchased the answers to the exam questions.

Among them, several people were not first-time offenders, but habitual offenders who had repeatedly participated in purchasing answers to national and provincial examinations.

For those who purchased test questions multiple times, after a thorough investigation, they were all expelled from the civil service.

However, fortunately for those who attempted to buy the answers to the test questions, the Personnel Department of the Provincial Party Committee Office quickly activated the spare test papers at the critical moment, which ultimately made the behavior of these people appear to be a state of "attempted crime."

After a series of rigorous meetings, discussions and deliberations, the relevant departments decided to impose administrative sanctions on all those involved as a serious punishment for their inappropriate behavior.

At the same time, in the subsequent interview session, Wentao unexpectedly discovered another new and difficult problem.

What is incredible is that there were actually five candidates who performed extremely poorly and had very unsatisfactory results in the written test. After going through the test of the interview, they successfully achieved an amazing comeback like dark horses and finally made it to the shore smoothly.

Full of doubts, Wentao hurriedly reviewed and carefully checked the complete video playback of the interview day.

The result shocked him greatly - the responses given by these candidates in the interviews were completely irrelevant. There was a huge contrast between their answers and the high scores they received, which was completely inconsistent.

According to normal procedures and regulations, interviews should be conducted by random selection to determine the order of candidates and the corresponding examiners, and the examiners do not know any information about the candidates' personal identities in advance.

So, what kind of means were used to allow these obviously incompetent candidates to break through numerous levels so easily and cheat successfully?

The doubt weighed on Wentao's heart like a heavy mystery, leaving him puzzled.

What is happening now makes Wentao feel that there are "traitors" everywhere.

Finally, Wentao urgently summoned all the personnel who had been transferred from Handong Province to participate in the recruitment work, and ordered the video recording of the interview site to be played slowly frame by frame and reviewed one by one.

After all, three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang!

There is strength in numbers!

Meng Xiangteng frowned tightly, staring at the screen without blinking, watching the video recording frame by frame, second by second. He would occasionally pause the video, magnify the image several times, and carefully examine every detail.

As a professional from the public security front, Meng Xiangteng is experienced and skilled in investigation.

It wasn't long before his sharp eyes caught something unusual.

Suddenly, Meng Xiangteng shouted excitedly as if he had discovered a new world: "Everyone, come and take a look! There are serious problems with the way these candidates are dressed!"

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly gathered around. Meng Xiangteng pointed at the screen and said, "Look, these candidates who successfully achieved a comeback on the exam are all wearing red ties and gray suits. What's even more eye-catching is that each of them is wearing the same style of digital watch on their arm!"

After hearing this, the others hurriedly moved closer to the screen and began to look through the video materials of several other candidates.

Sure enough, just as Meng Xiangteng said, although the clothes of these candidates were not exactly the same, their characteristics were exactly the same!

Although almost all interviewees wore suits and ties, and quite a few wore watches, such a highly uniform dress style was rare.

Obviously, this is not a coincidence, but someone did it intentionally!

It turns out that the interviewers actually came up with the idea of ​​using this special way of dressing to secretly identify the candidates they favor.

Who would have thought that such a simple method could become a tool for cheating? It is really ridiculous and shocking!

Even more shocking and unexpected was the fact that such a crucial exam—the provincial party committee's general office selection exam—had been plagued by such serious cheating! All the examiners, without exception, had been secretly bribed! This left Wentao incredibly surprised and angry.

He really couldn't imagine that it was just a small-scale internal selection examination for a provincial agency, how could anyone dare to manipulate the entire examination process so recklessly and brazenly?

First, some criminals openly sold the answers to the test questions, and now they have gone even further and bribed all the examiners.

This behavior is simply outrageous!

Have these people really never thought about the serious consequences that would arise if the matter were to be exposed?

You know, once such illegal operations are exposed, what awaits them is not just losing their jobs, but they may even lose the "official hat" on their heads that symbolizes power and status!
