At the Pinnacle of Power: My Insider Report Alarms Bigwigs in Beijing's Elite Circle

"Executive Vice Mayor Xiao Yuan was taken away by staff from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection during the municipal government's executive meeting!"

At 10 a.m., this news swept through the political arena of Yunshan City, Dongjiang Province, like a hurricane!

"Lin Ke will definitely be implicated in Mayor Xiao's matter!"

Some people in the city government office were gloating, and everyone in the Second Secretariat was looking at Lin Yi, who sat motionless at his desk with a dazed expression.

Lin Yi is the deputy section chief of the Second Secretariat Section and also the secretary of Xiao Yuan, the executive vice mayor.

The mayor resigned some time ago due to liver cancer. Xiao Yuan, who had previously presided over the work of the municipal government, was originally very likely to become the mayor of Yunshan.

Lin Yi, who was only 28 years old, was therefore considered to have climbed the ladder to success and had a bright future.

But now, Lin Yi's ladder to heaven is broken!

After all, it's common practice in officialdom for the secretary to suffer when the leader gets into trouble!

Lin Yi ignored his colleagues' stares, pinched himself, and then stared blankly at the time on the Olympic-themed calendar:

2008 5 Month 28 Day.

He was reborn in 2024, back to the turning point in his life sixteen years earlier!

In his previous life, after Xiao Yuan was taken away by staff from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, Lin Yi believed that Xiao Yuan had not violated any discipline or laws, was framed, and would be fine.

However, a day later.

While being interrogated by staff from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection at the municipal party committee guesthouse, Xiao Yuan suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage and passed away before he could be taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.

After Xiao Yuan's death, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection dispatched a special task force to thoroughly investigate Xiao Yuan's case!

According to the investigation report from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, Xiao Yuan was framed for accepting bribes!

Xiao Yuan's death was not an accident, but a premeditated murder!

But justice has been delayed!

Xiao Yuan, who was selfless, dedicated to public service, and diligent in serving the people, died unjustly!

Lin Yi, on the day Xiao Yuan died, was transferred to the Municipal Water Resources Bureau and sent to a remote area to guard a reservoir, thus ending his political life.

During his time guarding the reservoir, Lin Yi thought about Xiao Yuan's case every day, suffering severe mental exhaustion. He could only calm himself down by reading books and newspapers, ultimately wasting half his life.

Memories of his past life surfaced in his mind, and Lin Yi quietly clenched his fists.

In my past life, Xiao Yuan got into trouble, and I was implicated and crushed by fate, powerless to resist!

Now that God has given me a second chance, I absolutely cannot let the tragedy repeat itself!

Just then, someone pushed open the door and entered the office.

Ye Hao.

The son of the director of the Yunshan City Public Security Bureau serves as the deputy section chief of the city's Development and Reform Commission.

Ye Hao is a notorious playboy in Yunshan City. Relying on his father being the director of the Public Security Bureau, he commits all sorts of crimes, and many young girls have suffered at his hands.

Two years ago, Ye Hao took a liking to Shen Chuchu, Lin Yi's high school classmate.

Shen Chuchu works at a police station. Ye Hao uses his connections to get the police station chief to take Shen Chuchu to a dinner party, and then encourages everyone at the dinner party to get Shen Chuchu drunk.

After the dinner, Ye Hao forcibly dragged the drunk Shen Chuchu to a hotel, intending to rape her.

Shen Chuchu fought back desperately, hiding in the bathroom and calling Lin Yi. Lin Yi arrived in time, preventing Ye Hao from succeeding.

However, afterwards, Ye Hao turned the tables and said that Shen Chuchu had drunk too much and seduced him!

Lacking concrete evidence and with Ye Hao's father protecting him, Lin Yi was unable to seek justice for Shen Chuchu and instead offended Ye Hao.

Previously, Lin Yi was Xiao Yuan's secretary, so Ye Hao didn't dare to act recklessly.

Now that Xiao Yuan is in trouble, Ye Hao has no more scruples and immediately comes to see Lin Yi make a fool of himself!

"Hey... Section Chief Lin, I just heard that Mayor Xiao was taken away by staff from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. Why didn't you go to cooperate with the investigation?"

After Ye Hao entered the office, he asked with a gloating expression.

Ye Hao is a scumbag!

Hearing Ye Hao's words, the people in the Second Secretariat cursed inwardly.

Since Xiao Yuan came to Yunshan City to serve as the executive vice mayor, he has been wholeheartedly dedicated to doing practical things for the people, racking his brains to plan the economic development of Yunshan City, and caring a lot about the lives of grassroots staff, which has earned him their deep respect and love!

Lin Yi was always very approachable and took good care of them.

They were already upset, but Ye Hao just had to bring up the very thing they didn't want to talk about!

However, despite their anger, they dared not speak out and could only pretend that they had not heard anything, and did not even dare to look at Ye Hao.

"Is this something you can inquire about?"

Lin Yi looked at Ye Hao with an indifferent expression.

Seeing that Lin Yi showed no fear whatsoever, but instead exuded an air of authority without anger, Ye Hao was somewhat bewildered!

Xiao Yuan is in trouble, shouldn't Lin Yi be worried?

Why does he look so calm?

"Heh, Lin Yi, you're still putting on an act? Let me tell you, you're like a grasshopper in autumn, you won't be able to jump around for many more days!" After a brief moment of surprise, Ye Hao sneered.

According to the information he had, Xiao Yuan not only blocked other people's way, but also offended the interest groups in Yunshan and even the entire Dongjiang Province, which destined him to tragedy.

Lin Yi will definitely be implicated, yet he's still acting all high and mighty here?

Is it possible that scum like you is the grasshopper that's fallen in autumn?

Lin Yi squinted at Ye Hao.

According to his memories from his previous life, Wu Zhiqiang, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee and secretary of the political and legal committee, was the mastermind behind framing and poisoning Xiao Yuan!

Ye Hao's father, Ye Yunfeng, the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, was Wu Zhiqiang's most capable subordinate!

Ye Hao laughed as if he had heard a lame joke, "Hehe, Lin Yi, you're still living in your dream of being the mayor's chief secretary, treating Mayor Xiao as your backer?"

"I advise you to find out about Mayor Xiao's background before you come and yell at me!"

Lin Yi said coldly, wanting to muddy the waters and buy himself time to rescue Xiao Yuan.

Xiao Yuan has powerful connections, but for special reasons, no one knows it.

After Xiao Yuan's death.

The central government issued an order: The Xiao Yuan case must be thoroughly investigated, and no one involved should be tolerated!

This led to the nationwide anti-corruption storm in Dongjiang!

Who is Mayor Xiao's powerful backer?

Upon hearing Lin Yi's words again, both Ye Hao and the people from the Second Secretariat were stunned!

They all looked at Lin Yi, wanting to hear him reveal the answer.

Lin Yi, however, turned his gaze toward the office door.

According to his memory, the staff from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection were about to arrive.

His words were both a warning to Ye Hao and a message to the provincial discipline inspection commission staff outside the door!

As Lin Yi finished speaking, Director Wang of the First Supervision Office of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, accompanied by two middle-aged men, arrived at the door of the Second Secretariat Section's office.

All three of them heard what Lin Yi had just said, and their gazes toward Lin Yi were filled with surprise and doubt!

"Comrade Lin Yi, these two are leaders from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. They want to ask you about some things." Director Wang of the First Supervision Office of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection was the first to regain his composure and take the initiative to explain the purpose of their visit.

A staff member from the provincial discipline inspection commission behind him also spoke up, "Comrade Lin Yi, please come with us."

"Okay, leader."

Lin Yi responded calmly, then stood up and walked towards the three of them.

"Lin Yi, go ahead without worry. I'll take care of your girlfriend!"

As Lin Yi and Ye Hao brushed past each other, Ye Hao snapped out of his daze, turned his back to the disciplinary committee staff, lowered his voice, and said with a sinister smile.

After the initial shock, Ye Hao concluded that Lin Yi was bluffing and putting on a show.

Besides, even if what Lin Yi said was true, Ye Hao didn't think that Xiao Yuan's backer was more powerful than that big shot in the province!

That big shot is the head of the Dongjiang Gang!

Lin Yi paused, staring coldly at Ye Hao: "Ye Hao, just wait and see, you parasites and scum will soon be judged by Party discipline and national law!"
