Liu Ying inspected Songbei County for three days, and then returned to the northwest with the group members. Before leaving, Liu Ying did not give Qiao Liang a positive answer, which made Qiao Liang always think about this matter. The day after Liu Ying left, she called Liu Ying to ask about the results. However, Liu Ying seemed to deliberately sway Qiao Liang's appetite, and said with a smile that she had to wait for the report from the group's investment department to make a decision, which made Qiao Liang speechless and it was hard to urge him again.

Before time knew it, many days passed. In the city, the city's investigation into Qiao Liang's bribery also came up with the results. Zheng Shidong took the report and personally reported to Luo Fei.

In the office, Luo Fei listened to Zheng Shidong's report and slapped the table in annoyance: "Comrade Shidong, according to your statement, Qiao Liang has no problem at all, right? What's the matter with the photo? What's the matter with the box of money in the back carriage of Qiao Liang?"

"Secretary Luo, he has taken the initiative to report the money from Qiao Liang's rear compartment to the county discipline inspection in advance, and handed the box of money to the comrades of the county discipline inspection. At present, the box of money has been included in the national treasury according to relevant procedures." Zheng Shidong said.

"Comrade Shidong, as you want, those corrupt and abused cadres will be fine as long as they hand over the money in time before being investigated, right? That would not be considered illegal or discipline?" Luo Fei asked with his eyes wide open.

"Secretary Luo, don't be anxious first. This is the second thing I want to report to you today." Zheng Shidong said slowly, not anxious because of Luo Fei's shame and questioning. He said slowly, "Secretary Luo, based on the results of our current investigation, those photos alone cannot prove that Comrade Qiao Liang was bribed."

Zheng Shidong said, put the investigation report he brought to Luo Fei and said, "Secretary Luo, you can take a look in detail. It includes Comrade Qiao Liang's oral statements, the surveillance records we retrieved from the hotel, and some doubts found in the comparison of photos...etc. So, those photos alone cannot prove that Comrade Qiao Liang was bribed."

Luo Fei glanced at the report on the table and didn't even have any interest in reading it. Instead, he took the photos of the report together. Luo Fei picked up the photos of Qiao Liang's behavior with two women, and said, "How do you explain this? As a leading cadre, Qiao Liang has such behavior. Do you think it's appropriate? Isn't this annoying and moral corruption?"

"Secretary Luo, I have also talked to Comrade Qiao Liang about this. Comrade Qiao Liang talked about the social event that night. The women present at that time were invited by the Chamber of Commerce to accompany him that night. Comrade Qiao Liang did not make any overwhelming moves. This can also be seen from the photos." Zheng Shidong said while pointing at the photo, "Secretary Luo, take a closer look. Qiao Liang sat in these photos with regular sittings, and there was no inappropriate action."

When Luo Fei heard this, he took a few serious glances at the photo. It was as Zheng Shidong said. Qiao Liang did not do anything out of line, and his hands were always placed beside him.

Seeing this clearly, Luo Fei felt bad and forced himself to say, "Even if he didn't do anything out of line, as a leading cadre, it's not worth attending such a banquet. This is a leading role model."

"Well, what Secretary Luo said is that I pointed out this point when talking to Comrade Qiao Liang before and have already criticized him severely." Zheng Shidong nodded and said.

When Luo Fei heard this, he blinked: "What about?"

"Then, nothing happened." Zheng Shidong blinked.

Luo Fei was so angry that he almost vomited blood and said, "Comrade Shidong, do you think it's enough to just criticize?"

"Secretary Luo, what else do you think?" Zheng Shidong pointed to the report on the table. "The detailed investigation report on the case is written in it. I think Secretary Luo should take time to see it. There is currently no evidence to prove that Qiao Liang was bribed. Secondly, Qiao Liang may have been framed. From the perspective of the shooting of these photos, it is obvious that someone prepared a camera in the private room in advance to take pictures, otherwise there would be no such photos, so this is a bit intriguing."

Listening to Zheng Shidong's explanation, Luo Fei grinned. The result in front of him was obviously not what he wanted. Zheng Shidong did not know how to understand what he meant, but was deliberately defending Qiao Liang.

In the county, Qiao Liang didn't know that Zheng Shidong was defending him in front of Luo Fei, but Qiao Liang had a clear conscience, so he was not worried about the result at all.

After the busy day of work, Qiao Liang had dinner with Ling Hongwei in the evening. The two of them didn't choose any big hotel, but instead found a street stall to eat.

This is a small stall selling jelly. Qiao Liang and Ling Hongwei ordered a portion of jelly and cut half a pound of braised beef, which tasted delicious.

During the meal, Ling Hongwei mentioned Li Jiangkun’s incident: “County Magistrate Qiao, the Discipline Inspection Office has not done anything to Li Jiangkun at all. I am always a little uneasy.”

"Have you communicated with Comrade Jun Zhuo? What did he say?" Qiao Liang asked.

"He is still the same kind of rhetoric, saying that he has discovered new clues and needs to continue to investigate." Ling Hongwei curled his lips, "I always feel like he is more and more perfunctory."

Qiao Liang frowned when he heard this and said, "I'll call him to ask when I go to work tomorrow."

"Okay." Ling Hongwei nodded and didn't say much.

"How is the investigation of the new inpatient building project of the county hospital? Is there any progress?" Qiao Liang asked.

"The financial information of the project was burned out before, which made it difficult to investigate now. In addition, due to the interference of human factors, the case progressed very slowly. I just had a meal with Vice President Wei yesterday and also discussed this matter..." Ling Hongwei looked at Qiao Liang at this point, obviously hesitant.

"If you have anything to say, don't hesitate?" Qiao Liang said. "County Magistrate Qiao, can you consider revoking the punishment of Vice President Wei first and let him resume work? If he can go back to work in the hospital, it will be helpful for the investigation of the case." Ling Hongwei said.

"I think it's OK." Qiao Liang nodded and agreed, "You can communicate with the comrades from the Health Bureau."

"County Chief Qiao, I have talked to Director Mu. He said no, people don't buy my account, and they even suppressed me with the county leaders, saying that this matter was ordered by the county leaders, and it would be okay to revoke Vice President Wei's punishment, and the county leaders agreed." Ling Hongwei smiled bitterly.

"Which county leader gave the instructions?" Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows.

"This matter was ordered by Secretary Li at that time." Ling Hongwei said.

"Li Qingyan?" Qiao Liang glanced at Ling Hongwei.

"Yes." Ling Hongwei nodded and said, "County Magistrate Qiao, in fact, Li Jiangkun is also Secretary Li's person, and he was promoted by Secretary Li."

Qiao Liang smacked his lips when he heard this: "It seems that the inpatient building project of the county hospital is involved in a lot."

"No, don't think that it's just a 200 million project, it's deep and the benefits are distributed layer by layer. I don't know how many people stretched out their hands in it." Ling Hongwei said.

"This project was contracted by Jiang Hui, right?"

"Yes, it's him."

"This Jiang Hui looks very capable. We will finish eating later and explore the bottom of this Jiang Hui." Qiao Liang said.

Ling Hongwei looked at Qiao Liang with some confusion, Qiao Liang smiled and said, "Don't Jiang Hui have a lot of business in Songbei County. After dinner, we will go to his industry for a walk."

Ling Hongwei suddenly realized, nodded and said ok.

After the two finished their meal, they walked along the street. Ling Hongwei was a local cadre born and raised. He was very familiar with Jiang Hui. When he walked to a hotel, Ling Hongwei stopped and pointed to the hotel and said, "This Honghui hotel is also an industry under Jiang Hui's name. It also operates catering and accommodation. The first floor of the underground is a nightclub. It can be said to be famous in Songbei County."

"Great famous?" Qiao Liang heard Ling Hongwei's voice-over and asked, "How can you become famous?"

"I haven't seen it in detail, but I've heard from someone that this nightclub has all the five poisons and dares to do anything. It's famously brave."

"Is that true?" Qiao Liang smiled, "Then let's go in and see how brave they are."

When he heard Qiao Liang wanted to go in and take a look, Ling Hongwei naturally would not stop him. As a local, he had long been well aware of this nightclub, but he had never visited it in person. Ling Hongwei was actually quite curious.

The two walked into the hotel and arrived at the nightclub on the underground floor. The book was first released on WeChat public account: Tianxia Yike 2. As soon as they walked into it, a depressing atmosphere came to their faces. The noisy and noisy heavy metal music mixed with smoke and alcoholic air made people feel dull as soon as they came in.

"There are quite a lot of customers." Ling Hongwei saw that the booths in the nightclub were almost full, so he said to Qiao Liang next to him, and then pointed to the bar and said, "County Magistrate Qiao, there is a seat at the bar, let's go and sit there."

"Yes." Qiao Liang nodded and said, "Don't call me County Magistrate Qiao in front of outsiders later."

Ling Hongwei knew Qiao Liang’s intention as soon as he heard this. Qiao Liang did not want to reveal his identity in front of outsiders.

The two walked to the bar and sat down. As soon as they sat down, a woman in a suspender skirt came over and looked at them with a smile: "Two, are you here to have fun for the first time?"

Ling Hongwei glanced at the other party and smiled and said, "Who told you that this is the first time we came here to have fun?"

"Because I think you are innocent faces, I don't seem to have seen you before." The woman smiled.

"There are so many people entering and leaving the nightclub every day, are you sure you can remember everyone who comes here?" Ling Hongwei said disapprovingly.

"Although I can't remember, most of the people who come here to play are regular customers. I'm here every day, and I basically have an impression of it." The woman smiled slightly, "And I saw that you two looked around when they first came in, obviously they didn't look like regular customers."

Ling Hongwei was hoarse when he heard this and had to admit that the woman's eyes were quite powerful.

At this time, Qiao Liang asked, "Beauty, are you a staff member here?"

"That's right, I'll make a living here." The woman smiled, "Brothers and I can find me anything if I want to play here. As long as I have money, I can play anything here. Only what you can't imagine, there is nothing here."
