Chapter 332 [Add fuel from the fire] (Part 2)

The Jiangcheng Municipal Committee held a Standing Committee meeting that afternoon. Today was very together. Everyone saw from Du Tianye's gloomy face that the city party secretary was in a bad mood. The meeting started with Rong Pengfei's report on the conflict between police and civilians in Zhu Xiaoqiao Village last night. Rong Pengfei said: "A total of six police officers were injured in the conflict last night, but they were all slightly injured. Three police cars were damaged. Fortunately, our police maintained considerable restraint during the entire conflict, so no people were injured at the scene." He paused and said: "At that time, a reporter was interviewing in Zhu Xiaoqiao Village and happened to take a picture of the conflict between police and civilians."

Executive Vice Mayor Li Changyu frowned: "Come on? How many coincidentals are there in the world? The people of Zhu Xiaoqiao Village are really not simple! They are in the county, in the city, and in the province, and can even make this happen to the capital. I have been working in Chunyang for so many years, but why haven't I found them so powerful?"

Zhao Yanglin, director of the National People's Congress, said: "The people today are different from the past. They can learn a lot of things through newspapers and TV, and they all have a legal awareness!"

Organization Minister Xu Biao seized the grammatical error of Zhao Yanglin's words and sneered: "With legal awareness? Will you still do this if you have legal awareness? Snatch state property, fight privately, surround state organs, and resist police law enforcement. This is called having legal awareness? What a joke!"

Zhao Yanglin's old face turned red. There was something wrong with this sentence. No wonder he was talking about it. He coughed and said, "I don't mean that, I mean they are much more knowledgeable than in the past!"

Du Tianye said: "The Qingtaishan armed battle incident has been happening for several days. Not only has the incident not subsided, but it has a tendency to become more and more intense. A very clear thing, why is it so complicated? Why is it so popular? I think we all need to reflect. While we are paying attention to reform and opening up, we ignore the construction of spiritual civilization, so the Qingtaishan robbery incident occurred, and the bloody armed battle incident occurred!"

Zhao Yanglin said slowly: "The key to the problem now lies in whether Chen Chongshan is self-defense!"

Du Tianye looked at Zhao Yanglin coldly, and he said word by word: "I was there at that time. If Chen Chongshan didn't fire that shot, I would die under Zhu Hongwei's shovel. I can prove for him that he fired that shot for me."

CPPCC Chairman Ma Yimin said: "Secretary Du, we believe what you said, but the problem now is that the people do not understand. They believe that Chen Chongshan killed someone and Zhu Hongwei violated the law and naturally had legal sanctions. He would not be shot in law, right? If Chen Chongshan killed him, it is normal for the people to not accept this reality."

Deputy Mayor Yuan Chengxi said: "I don't know who spread the news that Chen Chongshan is going to be acquitted, so the conflict has intensified. We still need to take care of the people's feelings."

Du Tianye said angrily: "What does it mean to take care of the people? Do you have to send an innocent elderly person to prison in order to take care of their feelings? Law is the law, and no one needs to take care of the feelings!"

No one spoke, and all the members of the Standing Committee felt that Du Tianye had lost his calmness.

Du Tianye said: "You must follow the national laws when doing anything. There is no favor to tell. The reason why I insist that Chen Chongshan is not guilty is not because he saved me, but because, in that case, I can see clearly and I can testify for him! I can prove that he fired the gun when he had no choice!"

Guo Liang coughed and said, "Who allowed those reporters to interview? This matter is not complicated, it is just a matter of crime and law enforcement. What does it have to do with reporters?"

Propaganda Minister Yang Qingsheng said: "Now we pay attention to freedom of speech, and the news media is not easy to control. If we offend them, things will develop in a more unfavorable direction."

Guo Liang said: "I think there have been problems with this incident since the beginning. The law enforcement efforts are not strong enough, so there are repeated confrontations against the government incidents!" The reason why he said this was because Chu Zhennan played a role. In the past, Guo Liang rarely interrupted local affairs, but the old commander personally ran to Jiangcheng to supervise the formation for this matter, so Guo Liang naturally had to take the initiative in his performance.

Guo Liang's sudden and proactive attitude attracted the attention of the Standing Committee members. Zhao Yanglin looked at him and sighed: "Now that things have reached this point, should we implement military control?"

This sentence made Guo Liang very unhappy. He shouted: "If the local government cannot handle this matter, we can definitely help maintain normal order in the country!"

Mayor Zuo Yuanchao has been silent until now. He felt that it was time for him to say something. He cleared his throat and said, "Director Zhao is right. All the conflicts are gathered on Chen Chongshan. According to me, Chen Chongshan is currently temporarily detained in the Jindun Hotel. Let's go through normal procedures and take Chen Chongshan first. Everything is subject to the court's verdict!" Zuo Yuanchao said about the conventional treatment method. This time, there are indeed too many elements for protection in handling Chen Chongshan's affairs.

But Zuo Yuanchao did not expect that his words would arouse Du Tianye's strong reaction. Du Tianye decisively said: "No! Absolutely not!"

Guo Liang also smiled and said, "What does it mean to arrest Chen Chongshan now? In order to calm the resentment of the family of the deceased, or to show our fairness and selflessness? People will only feel that we are afraid!"

Rong Pengfei didn't say anything. Du Tianye did show too much tension in Chen Chongshan's affairs. From the perspective of him, as a bystander, it would be better for Du Tianye to be out of the matter.

At this time, Du Tianye's secretary Jiang Le hurried in and said something in his ear.

Du Tianye immediately announced the end of the meeting.

The reason why Du Tianye suddenly ended the meeting was because people from the province came, and the province sent a working group. This time the working group leader was Liu Yanhong, deputy secretary of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Tian Qinglong, deputy head of the Public Security Department. This time they were sent by Gu Yunzhi, secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, to understand the situation.

Du Tianye entertained two leaders in his office.

Liu Yanhong smiled and said, "Secretary Du, I know I am not popular, but Secretary Gu sent us to learn about some situations, so we could only come over with a bit of the bullet."

Du Tianye smiled and said, "Welcome to Jiangcheng to guide the work!"

Tian Qinglong said: "I'm not here to guide the work either. I'm here to understand the case this time!"

Du Tianye said: "I didn't expect that the armed fight in Qingtaishan has attracted so much attention. I am ashamed that as the secretary of the Jiangcheng Municipal Party Committee, the leaders have not handled this matter well, which has worried them."

Liu Yanhong smiled and said, "Don't say so many official words, you must have a resistant to us. In this way, let's talk to you as friends, let's talk to you about the situation, tell us the specific things, let's explain the situation clearly, let's understand the situation clearly, and return to the province as soon as possible to report to Secretary Gu."

Du Tianye said: "Okay! Please ask me, two!"

Liu Yanhong and Tian Qinglong looked at each other, and Liu Yanhong said, "Old Tian, ​​come first!"

Tian Qinglong said: "Secretary Du, what I asked is related to the case that day. Can you tell me the details of the fight that day?"

Du Tianye nodded. It was not the first time he talked about this, but he still said it patiently and in detail.

After Du Tianye finished speaking, Tian Qinglong asked, "Secretary Du, did you notice it when Zhu Hongwei rushed towards you?"

Du Tianye shook his head: "He rushed towards me from behind, how could I find out!"

Tian Qinglong said: "Chen Chongshan's shot shot from behind Zhu Hongwei, which means that Chen Chongshan's location was also behind you!"

Du Tianye nodded and said, "Not bad!"

Tian Qinglong said: "You didn't see Zhu Hongwei attacking you at all. In other words, you can't prove that Chen Chongshan fired this shot when your life safety is threatened!"

Du Tianye was stunned. Tian Qinglong's words hit the nail on the head, and he had never considered this issue. Du Tianye said: "There are many people at the scene, and there are still people who can testify! Li Xinyi, the Taoist priest from Zixia Temple, and..." He thought of Su Yuanyuan and stopped immediately.

Liu Yanhong said: "Is there still Su Yuanyuan?"

Du Tianye was born in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in the past and knew very well the omnipresent working methods of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. There was no need to conceal this matter by himself. He nodded and said frankly: "Not bad!"

Liu Yanhong said: "Why is Su Yuanyuan at the scene?"

Du Tianye said: "I met her on the way!"

Liu Yanhong smiled and said, "What a coincidence!"

Du Tianye said: "Qingtai Mountain is a scenic spot, and no one has any regulations that I am allowed to go alone!"

Liu Yanhong took out a stack of photos and handed them to Du Tianye.

Du Tianye took the photo and it was full of photos of him and Su Yuanyuan. Du Tianye felt a deep heart, and Liu Yanhong refuted his lies in this way.

Liu Yanhong said: "Secretary Du, you used to work in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and should know how to cooperate with my work."

Du Tianye threw the photos aside: "Did you send these photos to you?"

Liu Yanhong said: "Yes! It's not just these photos that are sent to us!"

Du Tianye said: "The photos cannot explain any problem. I admit that I did make an appointment with Su Yuanyuan to go hiking together that day. The reason why I concealed this is that I don't want anyone to use this to make a fuss. The fight has nothing to do with Su Yuanyuan, she was just innocently involved."

Tian Qinglong was quite polite: "Secretary Du, do you know that hiding this matter is equivalent to hiding an important detail?"

Du Tianye said: "I'm sorry, I've caused trouble to the police!" In fact, Rong Pengfei reminded him to do this. Since he had been discovered by others, Du Tianye could only bear it alone.

Liu Yanhong smiled and said, "Maybe Secretary Du has been working for a long time in the Discipline Inspection Commission, so he is too cautious, afraid that we will make a fuss about such small things, and afraid that the masses will not have a good influence."

Du Tianye thought to himself, aren’t you just doing something about these little things?

Liu Yanhong said: "I have another question. Can you explain the relationship between you and Chen Chongshan?"

Du Tianye calmly said: "My father was a comrade-in-arms relationship with Chen Chongshan during his lifetime, and he was my uncle."

Liu Yanhong nodded: "There is basically so much we need to know."

Du Tianye said: "Please tell Secretary Gu, I will handle this matter well."

Liu Yanhong said: "Yes!"

Su Yuanyuan lowered her head and her fingers were tangled together, and she could tell that she was very nervous.

Tian Qinglong and Rong Pengfei looked at each other, and Rong Pengfei said, "Su Yuanyuan, you don't have to be nervous. We asked you to come just to understand some situations. You can tell the truth! You can go back after you finish your statement."

Su Yuanyuan nodded.

Tian Qinglong said: "You were on the scene on the day the fight occurred in Qingtai Mountain, right?"

Su Yuanyuan said: "I'm here!"

"What were you doing when the gunshots rang?"

"I was very scared at the time and was pushed to the ground!"

"Did you hear the gunshot?"

Su Yuanyuan nodded.

Tian Qinglong said again: "Have you seen Chen Chongshan shoot?"

Su Yuanyuan raised her head, her face was very pale, and her eyes were filled with fear: "I..."

Tian Qinglong smiled and said, "You don't have to be afraid, just say whatever you see? Just tell the facts you know."

Su Yuanyuan said: "I didn't see it, I only heard the gunshot!"

"Have you seen Zhu Hongwei attack Du Tianye from behind with a shovel and pose a threat to his personal life?"

Su Yuanyuan bit her lip: "I...I...I saw it. I saw Zhu Hongwei holding a murder weapon and trying to attack Secretary Du. I saw Chen Chongshan shooting..."

Tian Qinglong's voice suddenly became stern: "But you said just now that you didn't see him shoot!"

Su Yuanyuan covered her face and suddenly started crying: "Don't ask me anymore, I saw nothing, I saw nothing!"

Rong Pengfei's face changed. The testimony provided by Su Yuanyuan before was that she witnessed Zhu Hongwei attacking Du Tianye from behind, posing a threat to Du Tianye's life, which led to Chen Chongshan shooting Zhu Hongwei to death with one shot. But now, she overturned all the testimony. Rong Pengfei slapped the table hard and said, "Su Yuanyuan, calm down and explain what happened that day carefully! You must know that your confession is related to the final direction of this case, so you should not talk nonsense!"

Tian Qinglong looked at Rong Pengfei with reproach. His words were obviously implied.

The female policewoman who was listening came over to send Su Yuanyuan a tissue. Su Yuanyuan wiped away her tears, tidied up her emotions and said, "I really didn't see Chen Chongshan shooting. At that time, Zhu Hongwei rushed towards Secretary Du!"

Rong Pengfei's tone eased a little: "Did you see Zhu Hongwei rushing towards Secretary Du with a shovel and trying to attack him?"
