In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong!

Chen Luo's home is full of spring colors.

Meanwhile, at the Shanshui Manor, Qi Tongwei, who had been busy until late at night, couldn't muster any interest in Gao Xiaoqin, who had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Director!"

The sweet voice instantly ignited Qi Tongwei's frustration and resentment. Without the slightest hesitation, Qi Tongwei picked up Gao Xiaoqin and headed towards the bedroom.

Half an hour later, Qi Tongwei's mind cleared up a bit after he had calmed down.

He sat up in bed, took out his phone, found Zhao Ruilong's number, and dialed it.

It was already past midnight, and Zhao Ruilong reluctantly answered the phone after being dialed twice.

"Hey, what's up with our manager calling at this hour?"

Zhao Ruilong's voice carried a hint of mockery and dissatisfaction, but Qi Tongwei had no interest in paying attention to Zhao Ruilong's emotions.

"Hey, Ruilong, there's something I need to tell you."

"Okay, go ahead, I'm listening."

"Ding Yizhen has been arrested!"

In an instant, even Zhao Ruilong, who was usually so stubborn, understood the seriousness of the problem.

"When did this happen?"

"Just now, the comrades from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection are probably about to take Ding Yizhen away from the Jingzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau."

"Director Qi, didn't you try to stop it?"

Zhao Ruilong's question made Qi Tongwei frown.

"This matter was decided by the provincial party committee; there's nothing I can do about it..."

I even arranged for people to support Ding Yizhen, but he was still arrested at the airport.

"This is troublesome!"

Zhao Ruilong couldn't care less about anything else at this moment. Ding Yizhen knew everything they had done. Once Ding Yizhen spoke up, they could follow the clues and Qi Tongwei would be the first to get into trouble. Of course, Zhao Ruilong wouldn't be able to escape either!

"Director Qi, I understand the situation. Let me inquire about the details first. If all else fails, we'll have to make some people disappear."

Zhao Ruilong hung up the phone quickly.

Qi Tongwei, however, continued to frown.

......................................................

For some, this night is destined to be a sleepless one.

Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.

After the Jingzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau took Ding Yizhen away late at night, the staff of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection temporarily detained Ding Yizhen in a small room at the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.

They did not rush to interrogate him. Instead, in the darkness, when the guards brought him food and water, Ding Yizhen, who had been detained for several hours and was extremely thirsty, gulped down a bottle of water without any hesitation.

Then they ate a boxed lunch.

Everything was normal until the next morning.

When the guards brought Ding Yizhen food and water as usual, they found that Ding Yizhen was still lying motionless in the room.

It wasn't until several minutes later that the guards discovered that Ding Yizhen had no vital signs.

The matter was quickly reported.

A phone call was made to Sha Ruijin and Tian Guofu, who were still conducting research in Lüzhou. Sha Ruijin, who originally wanted to continue to learn about the political ecology of Handong, had to end his inspection in a hurry, while Tian Guofu rushed to Jingzhou without stopping.

Meanwhile, in Building No. 8 of the Provincial Party Committee, Chen Luo woke up in a good mood and received a call from his secretary, Liu Mingyu, who briefly informed him of Ding Yizhen's situation.

Chen Luo was not surprised by this.

For Zhao Ruilong and Qi Tongwei, someone like Ding Yizhen was a ticking time bomb, especially since he had already been placed under investigation by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. It was only natural that he would be dealt with.

Chen Luo also got his chance; using the Ding Yizhen incident as a pretext, it was time for a change in Handong's political and legal system.

After breakfast, Chen Luo took his driver's car to the Provincial Procuratorate.

He came to inspect the work.

Before arriving, Secretary Liu Mingyu had already consulted with the Provincial Procuratorate, so when Chen Luo's No. 8 car stopped at the entrance of the Procuratorate, Ji Changming, along with Deputy Procurator-General Lin and other department-level cadres from the Procuratorate, came to greet him.

"Secretary Chen, welcome to the Procuratorate!"

After a brief handshake with Ji Changming, Chen Luo secretly sized up the people from the procuratorate present.

"Comrade Changming, the work of the procuratorate is very important, especially the adherence to organizational procedures, which some comrades seem to neglect. I can't afford not to come!"

Chen Luo only touched on the point briefly, and Ji Changming could only force a smile, since Chen Hai had indeed done something wrong.

When inspecting work, it's nothing more than asking if the work is going smoothly and if there are any difficulties. However, after the group entered the anti-corruption bureau's office area, Chen Luo immediately spotted Lü Liang, who was browsing materials at his post.

Turning around to Ji Changming, Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lin, and other members of the Party Committee of the Procuratorate who were accompanying him, he asked, "Where is Director Chen from your Anti-Corruption Bureau? Didn't he come to work?"

Although Comrade Chen Hai does have some problems, the Provincial Party Committee has not yet punished him, and the work still needs to be done. This attitude is not good enough.

Comrade Changming, the work of the Anti-Corruption Bureau is very important. Even with the director absent, will the work proceed smoothly?

Ji Changming couldn't quite understand what Chen Luo was up to, but one thing he was certain of was that Chen Luo's visit to the procuratorate was definitely not a coincidence!

"Secretary Chen, don't worry. Comrade Chen Hai has already asked for leave for me. He went to the airport to welcome the comrades from the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Supreme People's Procuratorate."

Regarding the work of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, this is Lu Liang, the deputy director of our procuratorate's Anti-Corruption Bureau. Deputy Director Lu is a veteran of the procuratorate; with him there, the work of the Anti-Corruption Bureau will not be chaotic!

Chen Luo nodded thoughtfully.

They then went directly to Lü Liang.

"Comrade Lü Liang, it seems that Comrade Changming has a very good opinion of you. I trust Comrade Changming's judgment. The organization should boldly use a good comrade like you who is diligent and conscientious, and give you more responsibilities."

Comrade Changming, what do you think?

Lü Liang was clearly bewildered, while Ji Changming's face twitched slightly. Where in the procuratorate could there be a place for Lü Liang?

"Secretary Chen, our procuratorate will give your suggestion serious consideration."

Listening to Ji Changming joking around, Chen Luo remained completely unmoved.

"Comrade Changming, the internal management of the procuratorate should be stricter. We must not be lax, and we must not allow the staff below to have an indifferent attitude."

You've heard about what happened at the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, haven't you?

The person who was taken away last night showed no vital signs this morning. How dare they provoke the Handong Provincial Party Committee like this? The Procuratorate must learn a lesson.

"Yes, please rest assured, Secretary Chen!"

Chen Luo nodded, then looked at Lü Liang and smiled, "Speaking of which, Comrade Lü Liang, you are my senior from Peking University. Work hard, and I believe the organization will not forget you."

After saying that, Chen Luo left the Anti-Corruption Bureau's office area to inspect other areas.

Only after the crowd dispersed did Lü Liang realize the deeper meaning behind Chen Luo's words. His blood, which had long been extinguished, was ignited deep within him.

So what if I'm forty-six!

He, Lü Liang, can still improve!
