Rebirth in officialdom and rising to the top

Ye Siqi did not answer Li Xi's question directly, but said to Chen Wangyang:

"Director Chen, you were the one who seized the illegal guns. It's up to you to tell this comrade the police!"

Chen Wangyang naturally understood that Ye Siqi called him "director" in order to clarify his identity in front of Li Xi and enhance his right to speak.

So Chen Wangyang stood up, took the pistol from Wang Feihong, turned off the safety, then pointed at Chen Laosi and said:

"Comrade police, this illegal gun was seized from this person. Before you came, he intended to have Ms. Huang Sufen crushed with a bulldozer and instructed his men to attack us with weapons. Later he found out that his men were no match for us. , so he planned to shoot at us, but fortunately I was able to subdue him in time, so there were no casualties!"

Chen Laosi struggled desperately at this time, holding his neck and shouted:

"Li Xi! Don't listen to his nonsense. They were the ones who made the move first, and this gun belongs to them too. It has nothing to do with me at all!"

Chen Laosi has been running rampant in Wenhe County for many years, and he naturally knows the director of Mingxiu Town Police Station. In his opinion, although Li Xi is not close to him at ordinary times, for the sake of his elder brother, he is more affectionate and reasonable than Li Xi. Xi also wouldn't help a few outsiders but not him, right?

Who knew that Li Xi didn't even look at him? Chen Laosi was so angry that this guy's nostrils were flaring and he was breathing heavily. He looked like he was about to have a cerebral hemorrhage...

Seeing Chen Wangyang turn off the safety of the gun, Li Xi breathed a sigh of relief, so he also put down the 05 revolver in his hand and said politely:

"Secretary Ye calls you Director Chen. Who are you?"

The reason why Li Xi asked this question was because Chen Wangyang was wearing a police uniform without a police title and number. In order to avoid misunderstandings, he chose to ask the other party's identity in advance.

This time it was Ye Siqi who came forward to answer Li Xi’s question:

"Comrade policeman, his name is Chen Wangyang, he is the deputy director of our Shan'an County Party Committee Office, and he also serves as my secretary. There is a special reason why he wears a police uniform. If necessary, I will ask him to civilize you. River County Police have an explanation.”

Speaking of this, Ye Siqi's tone became particularly solemn:

"In short, as the secretary of the Shan'an County Party Committee, I guarantee that what he just said is true!"

Only now did Chen Laosi realize that these outsiders were not the soft persimmons he had imagined that he could manipulate at will.

Although he did not think that a county party secretary from another province could outdo his elder brother in Wenhe County, the situation was still much more complicated after all...

What should I do now?

While Chen Laosi's brain was spinning rapidly, Li Xi was also brainstorming:

Even though Ye Siqi was the county party secretary of Lin Province and had no control over Li Xi, the other party's status as a deputy department-level cadre made Li Xi feel that he still had to give him enough respect.

As for Director Mei Yanguang's order, it was only to ensure Chen Laosi's life safety. Now Chen Laosi's life was not in danger, so there was no need for him to confront others.

Thinking of this, Li Xi nodded, put his gun into the holster at his waist, stretched out his hand and said politely to Chen Wangyang:

"I believe what Secretary Ye said, but since it is a confiscated illegal gun, should Director Chen hand it over to our Wenhe police for safekeeping?"

"Should be."

Chen Wangyang was quite satisfied with Li Xi's attitude of not favoring Chen Laosi, so he readily agreed to Li Xi's request.

"Thank you!"

Li Xi looked happy. After putting on a pair of white gloves, he personally stepped forward to receive the gun.

Chen Wangyang did not break his promise. He unloaded the magazine of the Black Star pistol in his hand, then ejected the last bullet in the chamber, and then handed the gun and magazine to Li Xi.

"Thank you, Director Chen!"

After thanking him again, Li Xi looked at the Black Star pistol in his hand, frowned and looked at Chen Laosi, the disgust in his heart could hardly be suppressed:

This Chen Laosi is really brave. How dare he touch such smuggled guns imported from abroad?How dare you instruct your men to crush the families of martyrs?

I want to see if your brother who is the secretary of the county party committee can save you this time!

Thinking of this, Li Xi felt it necessary to remind these comrades from the province and the army:

"Secretary Ye, Director Chen, Director Mei of our county bureau is heading here with the comrades from the Special Patrol Brigade. Although I will truthfully report the situation here to him, he may not necessarily listen to me, so... …”

At this point, Li Xi hesitated to speak.

As the saying goes, one can understand elegance and meaning by listening to string songs. To smart people, there are some things that don’t need to be said clearly.

But even if he didn't explain clearly, Chen Laosi still looked at Li Xi with resentment, as if threatening Li Xi with his eyes:

I warn you, stop talking!

It's a pity that Li Xi still treats him like air and doesn't even look at him...

Ye Siqi and Chen Wangyang looked at each other, stretched out their right hands towards Li Xi, and said with a smile:

"Thank you, comrade police, for reminding me. What is your name?"

Li Xi shook Ye Siqi's hands vigorously and smiled enthusiastically:

"Li Xi, Director of Mingxiu Town Police Station, hello Secretary Ye!"

"Hello!"

"Li Xi! What are you doing?!"

Just as Li Xi, Ye Siqi and Chen Wangyang were shaking hands and greeting each other warmly, a sharp shout sounded in the ears of several people,

Li Xi was startled and turned to look in the direction of the sound with some embarrassment:

"Mei Ju, are you here so soon?"

At this time, Chen Laosi struggled again as if he had seen a savior. While struggling, a villain came to complain first:

"Mei Ju, I am Chen Laoshi, please save me! I was kidnapped by these gangsters, and they also have guns!"

Hearing that the other party was armed with a gun, Mei Yanguang, who came with a large group of troops, frowned.

In order not to be too obvious, he did not answer Chen Laosi's words. Instead, he looked at Li Xi coldly, pointed at Chen Laosi and said:

"Looking at your current state, you don't seem to want to see me, right? I asked you to protect Mr. Chen's personal safety. Is this how you protect him?"

From the beginning to the end, Mei Yanguang paid no attention to Ye Siqi and Chen Wangyang, and even showed a kind of natural hostility.

Although Li Xi disdains Mei Yanguang in his heart, on the surface he still has to fully respect his immediate boss:

"Mei Ju, please listen to my explanation, things are not what you think..."

Li Xi respected Mei Yanguang, but Mei Yanguang did not save any face for Li Xi:

"You can shut up and leave your issues to the comrades of the Discipline Inspection Commission. Li Xi, I now suspect that you have an unusual relationship with the criminal suspect. According to the principle of avoiding suspicion, you do not need to participate in this vicious violence from now on." The incident has been dealt with.”

With that said, Mei Yanguang turned around and ordered a middle-aged special police officer next to him:

"Captain Zhou, I am ordering you to immediately control these criminal suspects and rescue the hostages. If the suspects violently resist the law, all necessary force is allowed!"

To be honest, if Mei Yanguang hadn't noticed that among the people on the other side were policemen and soldiers, which made him slightly scrupulous, he wouldn't have given Li Xi a chance to speak, and the special police would have swarmed him... …

Of course, Mei Yanguang did not lack the necessary arrangements. When he led the team to appear, the special police sniper team was already in place.

Not only that, Mei Yanguang had an unexpected surprise on the way up the mountain, because the special police discovered two reporters secretly filming in the nearby grass...
