Late at night, Jiang Qinghan was alone in the laboratory of the forensic center of the county public security bureau, examining samples from the site of the fire.

Some neighbors reported that the fire rose from a transformer close to Qiangmin Tourism Products Factory and then evolved into a huge fire.

Jiang Qinghan found clues from the samples collected from the transformer, which contained trace amounts of polyisobutylene and t*nt. These two things combined together are the famous c*4 explosives.

This discovery made Jiang Qinghan feel numb on his scalp. C*4 is not an ordinary explosive. Ordinary criminals have a higher chance of using lightning tubes, black gunpowder, and various homemade earth explosives. However, at the level of C*4, it is a toy for terrorists and special forces.

In addition, evidence was also found from the residues on the site, with gasoline participating in the combustion.

Jiang Qinghan sighed and walked out of the laboratory. Du Ping held his head in the next room, and his eyes were red because of staying up late.

"Have you found anything?" Du Ping was very excited when he saw Jiang Qinghan's emotions. His first reaction was that she might have found some clues.

Jiang Qinghan said in a deep voice: "It has been confirmed that it must be artificial arson. The criminals first used gasoline to help the combustion, and then exploded the power transformer. They used military C*4 explosives, and also used special means to destroy the evidence to cover up the truth."

Zhang Zhen sat next to Du Ping, clenched his fists hard, and said, "These people are really rampant."

Su Tao shook his head and reminded: "Finding this clue will not solve the problem. The person behind the scenes is very cunning, and seems to know that we will guess here and have begun to slander County Magistrate Du. Now many people think that Du Ping deliberately asked someone to set fire in order to expropriate and demolish Zhenxing Street. If we announce this result now, the shit basin will be placed on County Magistrate Du. So we must pull out the person who set fire behind us."

Du Ping also nodded and said, "This matter needs to be kept confidential!"

Zhang Zhen was a little angry and said, "Keep confidential? Shouldn't we give the people an explanation?"

Su Tao explained: "The truth needs to be investigated, but it cannot cause social panic. Think about it, this matter may involve terrorists and is a terrorist attack. If it is announced, the people will definitely be panicked. Moreover, the follow-up investigation will not be controlled by the police, and the national security department needs to arrange an investigation."

Once Guoan intervenes, things will not be controlled by themselves.

Jiang Qinghan also nodded and said, "The real murderer must be found before it can be announced to the public."

Su Tao touched his chin and said, "Since it's something professionals do, there are clues. Investigate on Zhenxing Street, especially near the transformer that exploded, and ask the local residents if they have seen some strange faces."

Jiang Qinghan's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, the eyes of the people are all sharp. The local area is an old street, and strange faces rarely appear. If there are foreigners, people will definitely notice it. In addition, it takes a certain amount of time for them to plan this case. It must be investigated on the spot for a long time to ensure that the fire hits the forced flat tourism supplies factory."

Zhang Zhen was excited and said, "I'll arrange someone now."

Jiang Qinghan frowned and said, "I'll go there myself."

Su Tao quickly stood up and said, "I'll go with you."

The incident involved terrorists. Although Su Tao knew that Jiang Qinghan had rich experience in handling cases, his first reaction was to protect her.

...

The lights were brightly lit in the office of the Municipal Party Secretary, and Zhang Ping frowned and pondered. The fire in Baoyou County made him feel a bad feeling.

Du Ping has told Zhang Ping the latest investigation conclusion. Zhang Ping already knows that there are experts behind the scenes who manipulate everything, and it is very likely that they are not targeting Du Ping, but pointing directly at himself.

Zhang Ping is 42 years old this year. There are very few who serve as the secretary of the municipal party committee at his age. With the high attention of the provincial party committee secretary Yin Kailang, he has the opportunity to attack the deputy ministerial-level standing committee member within two to three years, and he will become the youngest deputy ministerial-level cadre in Huainan.

However, this has also caused many enemies. There have always been one carrot and one pit in the officialdom. There are so many positions of real power at the deputy ministerial level. Many people have been able to get close to that position after many years of experience. Zhang Ping came from behind directly, which was a behavior of jumping into the lineup. Therefore, Du Ping knew that his enemy was most likely from the provincial party committee level.

The official information is still under lockdown, but rumors are everywhere outside. Everyone knows that even if the transformer is old and disrepair, it is impossible to have such a big fire, because there was a huge explosion at the scene.

Some say that this is a stimulating schizophrenic who set fire to vent their anger, some say that it is a malicious terrorist attack caused by the western nation, and some say that it is a conspiracy planned by Du Ping to forcibly expropriate and demolish the streets.

Various conspiracy theories are everywhere, and the government must stand up as soon as possible and hold a press conference to face it. However, no substantial answer has been found, so even if a press conference is held, it will be of no help.

The red phone on the table rang. After Zhang Pingren rang twice, he sighed and answered the phone: "Hello, Secretary Yin."

Provincial Party Secretary Yin Kailang looked serious, "How is the investigation?"

Zhang Ping said truthfully: "At the explosion site, traces of C*4 explosives were found. Ordinary criminals did not have this level at all. They suspected that it was a group of professional criminal gangs planning behind the scenes."

Yin Kailang said in a deep voice: "The provincial party committee held an emergency executive meeting just now. The fire case in Baoyou County has attracted many attention, including Vice Premier Xiao, who also inquired about the matter. Now there are also members of the Standing Committee to use this to criticize your ability to govern in Hanzhou. Some people think that it is your secretary Du Ping who planned this matter for the sake of demolition."

Zhang Ping did not expect the spread of rumors so quickly. Even Yin Kailang knew the news. He solemnly promised: "Du Ping is a good comrade, and I can guarantee this with personality. As for the real culprit of the fire, we will definitely find the real culprit behind the scenes as soon as possible."

Yin Kailang said: "I will give you three days. If the Hanzhou police cannot find the results, I will ask the national security department to intervene in the investigation. In addition, no matter what the result is, Du Ping has any problem of dereliction of duty. You can study the results of the handling and submit it to the provincial party committee."

Zhang Ping was slightly stunned. Unexpectedly, Yin Kailang would decide to punish Du Ping, and hurriedly said: "Du Ping has worked diligently and hard during his time in Baoyou County, and he rarely even returned home. It is so heartbreaking for such a cadre to punish him."

Yin Kailang waved his hand and patiently persuaded: "Comrade Zhang Ping, I know you are protecting your subordinates' thoughts, but sometimes punishing someone is actually to better protect him and make the situation more stable. As long as you trust his abilities enough, he will not lose the qualification to continue moving forward in the official career because of one punishment."

Zhang Ping understood Yin Kailang's meaning, but still sighed heavily and said, "Secretary Yin, I can't do it."

Yin Kailang was slightly stunned. He already understood that this was a tactic of abandoning the car to protect the coach. Punishment of Du Ping can temporarily calm the public anger. In this way, Yin Kailang had a step and reason at the provincial party committee level, and could protect Zhang Ping.

But Zhang Ping does not agree with this approach, which will complicate the problem.

Yin Kailang said earnestly: "You are a young cadre that I admire very much among the many municipal party secretaries. I hope that during my term of office, I will plant a potential seedling for Huainan's future development. You must take the overall situation into consideration and not let me down."

Zhang Ping understood the implication of Yin Kailang's words. Yin Kailang was promising to ensure that he would join the Standing Committee and even rule Huainan in the future.

Zhang Ping whispered: "Secretary Yin, you are a person who talks about feelings, so you take good care of me. But if I am a person who doesn't talk about feelings and ignores my subordinates, it may be difficult for you to take care of this way. Du Ping is a real good cadre, and I cannot let him suffer injustice. So I am willing to use the position of Secretary of the Hanzhou Municipal Party Committee to guarantee him and ask the organization to be tolerant of him. Otherwise, this will not only make Du Ping's heart alone, but also make more people who are on the career path feel that this is the dirtiest place in the world."

Yin Kailang heard Zhang Ping say this and shook his head slightly. He knew that he admired Zhang Ping's courage to take responsibility, but this was not the strategy of a mature official.

However, in the current officialdom, cadres like Zhang Ping need to be in charge. He said lightly: "Forget it, I'll buy you some more time, so you can find the murderer behind the scenes."

After Zhang Ping and Yin Kailang hung up the phone, he rubbed his temples and wrote several names on the white paper. These were all members of the Hanzhou Municipal Party Committee who had objections to him. Zhang Ping thought carefully for a while and finally drew a circle on two of the names, namely the No. 3 person, Luo Shuiqian, deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and Yao Hongli, director of the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda.

Luo Shuiqi has a strong background, and it is said that there are also supporters in ministries and commissions, so the Hanzhou Municipal Party Committee’s election has taken a quick look, and then another one, but Luo Shuiqi’s position is still firm and unshakable. As for Yao Hongli, the only woman among the Standing Committee members of the Municipal Party Committee, she is very close to Luo Shuiqi, and the two are highly consistent in their pace at the Standing Committee.

Qiao Rong, secretary of the Baoyou County Party Committee, was once a subordinate of Yao Hongli, so the relationship between characters can be connected.

Zhang Ping finally wrote "Runcheng Group" on the paper, and his brows suddenly frowned.

Luoshui moved a capital tycoon like "Runcheng Group" to snipe his idea of ​​promoting the city of traditional Chinese medicine. It has to be said that it is a very clever trick. As long as Du Ping leaves Baoyou County and the Runcheng Group project replaces the Qihuang New City project, his early idea of ​​establishing a city of traditional Chinese medicine will die.

This will not only affect one's prestige, but will also completely lose control of the city's government affairs.

Zhang Ping thought about all this clearly and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. The road to officialdom is always full of thorns at any time. If you are not careful and you are about to make a mistake, you will fall into the abyss.

Now I just hope that Baoyou County can rescue the murderer as soon as possible, so that the matter can be revealed. When the conspiracy surfaces, the situation may turn around.
