Dong Xiaoye said that she hadn't gotten together with her colleagues for a long time and wanted to say hello and reminisce. Knowing what she was thinking, I asked Chu Yuan to accompany her, while I took Tianyou and Wang Xiaomeng to see Lin Zhi.
Sister Hu deliberately avoided Lin Zhi for two reasons.
The first is that I don¡¯t want to see him, and the second is that I can¡¯t see him.
She didn¡¯t want to see him, not only because she had just used her actions to express her strong dissatisfaction with Lin Zhi¡¯s foresight and lack of protection that night, but also because she was guilty of pretending to be real during the mission and pretending to be public.
Having said that, if Sister Hu is not guilty, with her fearless and fiery personality, she will not turn to those small thoughts that she is not good at, and vent her emotions to Lin Zhi in a roundabout way by finding Wang Xiaomeng to install monitoring equipment. She didn't dare to confront Lin Zhi and settle the score with Lin Zhi. She was probably afraid that Lin Zhi would become angry and pierce the window paper and settle the score with her.
When she met Lin Zhi, she refused to settle accounts with him, which was not her Dong Xiaoye and Donghu style. How embarrassing would it be? But when it comes to settling the score, Lin Zhili is in the wrong, and he himself has not necessarily done enough, so in all likelihood, it is the result of both parties being blushing and unable to step down. In that case, it is better to disappear than to see him.
As for not being able to see each other, it is a completely different matter than settling accounts with whom. After all, I am not here today to seek bad luck for Lin Zhi¡¯s ineffective rescue that night or his complete inaction, but to question him about the identity and background of the third lady and what kind of relationship he has with the third lady. How many things did they hide from me and why did they deliberately hide it from me? What did the third lady want to get from me when she was entangled with me It would be fine if the things he colluded with the third lady were visible to others, but if they were invisible light
It¡¯s a big taboo for a subordinate to know too many secrets of his boss! You have no intention of threatening you, and it is difficult to prevent him from starting to guard against you. Once there is a gap in the relationship between the superiors and subordinates, it will only get deeper and deeper. No matter how indifferent and tolerant Sister Hu is, she will not rush to take her own job. Smash Lin Zhi's face to see if he is wearing a mask. What's more, she went to Beitian alone, and received a lot of care from Lin Zhi in her work and life. Facing such a senior who is also both a brother and a father, even if she no longer regards him as As a role model and a goal to strive for, you don¡¯t want to embarrass him too much, right?
Being sandwiched between me and Lin Zhi is already enough for her to be tangled and uncomfortable, and I don¡¯t want their relationship to become more and more tense because of me.
Lin Zhi, who has been 'promoted' to director, has not changed his office. He is still working in the original office of the Criminal Police Team. It is unclear whether he is used to it or deliberately kept messy. It is not clear whether he feels that the death of his predecessor, Director Niu, is unlucky. The office is not ready yet, and I still haven't taken off the word "acting director" on my official hat. I'm afraid that I'm not reserved enough, and maybe I won't be able to sit securely if I change my office. It's better to keep everything as usual. You can also show your calmness and determination to solve the case, which not only boosts morale, wins people's hearts, and pleases your boss, killing three birds with one stone, it is always more satisfying than putting your butt on the tip of the arrow
Wang Xiaomeng said that this guy was sure that I would come today. He was certainly not quick-witted enough to play tricks on his boss after a chance encounter. Of course, I didn¡¯t think Wang Xiaomeng, who was so nervous and straightforward, could have such a delicate and agile mind. Her sister Wang Xiaomeng would be almost the same. ¡ª¡ªIn a sense, the clutter in the office reflects Lin Zhi¡¯s intense and busy work status as acting director, but he has laid out a set of white and blue patterns on the table in a leisurely manner, elegant in shape, exquisite and beautiful. But in my opinion, the European-style ceramic tea sets are somewhat flashy and overly pretentious. The hot mist in the cup is misty, the color of the tea soup is bright, and a piece of delicate and soft scented tea sneaks out of the pot on the water and gradually stretches out in the beautiful and graceful wafting. The tea is rich and fragrant Obviously, the tea has just been brewed. , and Lin Zhi, who had bloodshot eyes and covered most of his face with stubble, did not look like he had the pleasure of enjoying tea and enjoying the rain behind closed doors.
Although the window is open, there is still a strong smell of cigarette smoke in the room. In the ashtray filled with cigarette butts on the windowsill, a wisp of green smoke sways in the wind. It is half a cigarette that has not been completely extinguished. Looking down from this window , should be where Wang Xiaomeng met us.
No wonder Wang Xiaomeng stood in the rain waiting for us. Looking at Lin Zhi's appearance, he hasn't been home, showered, or slept for at least a few days. He has no intention of taking a nap and is waiting at the window. Can Officer Xiao Meng not think that something big is going on? No matter how crude she is, she is, after all, a child of an official family. She has been influenced by what she hears and sees, and has her own tricks on how to observe people's emotions and express herself.
¡°I just don¡¯t know whether she showed such thoughtfulness to Lin Zhi, or whether Lin Zhi deliberately asked her to show it to me
"Xiaomeng, go ahead and go, Chu Nan, sit down, this is the top-grade jasmine tea that was sent to you this morning, how do you like it?"
Just like Tianyou didn't ask me why I brought her to see Lin Zhi before entering the door. After entering, Lin Zhi just glanced at Tianyou who was following me with a strange look in his eyes. He also didn't ask me why I brought her. She came here with her, just to treat herHe nodded and smiled politely, then poured another cup of tea.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Old Fox, you really knew what I wanted to do!
When he asked me to sit down, I already sat down politely and took a sip from my tea cup, then¡
The tea is good tea, but it¡¯s not a rare thing worth showing off. It seems to be worse than the old man¡¯s tea I often steal, so I asked: ¡°The tea set was also given as a gift, right?¡±
I dare not say that I know the goods, but this set of high-end and elegant handmade porcelain tea sets looks more like a set of exquisite art collections than a set for making tea, let alone making such ordinary jasmine tea. ?
Lin Zhi smiled and said, "A smart man with good vision."
There is no necessary connection between good or bad vision and whether a person is smart or not, so the acting director¡¯s words implicitly admitted that tea leaves are not as good as tea sets. I snorted coldly with a nasal tone and sighed in my heart, power makes people corrupt and lost. I have only been acting director for a few days. , and started accepting gifts and bribes
Lin Zhi stared at the teapot on the table, turned the teacup in his hand, and continued shamelessly: "It is said that this set is a tea set made by the European royal family in the 18th century. It stands to reason that it can be regarded as an art with considerable cultural value. It¡¯s a good product, if it were put up for auction now, it would be worth at least 1.8 million, right?¡±
"Pfft¡ª¡ª" The sip of tea that Tianyou just took into his mouth almost sprayed on my face. The girl blushed and carefully put the cup that she had held with two fingers back on the table. She covered it up coldly and critically: "The tea is too weak, I can't drink it."
Just kidding? A set of tea sets costs RMB 1.8 million. If a cup is accidentally broken, how can classmate Xu Xiaoyou, who only knows how to wash dishes and can't even read two or three Chinese characters, compensate? Not to mention her, my hands were shaking a little, but it was not because I was afraid that I would not be able to pay for the broken tea cup, but because I didn¡¯t expect Lin Zhi to be so honest, and even dared to tell me such a thing that would lead to death in public!
In the current sensitive political climate in Beitian, everyone in the officialdom is bound to be in danger. Any little tail caught by others may be made a big fuss, and then used as a condemnation sheep. , and for this role, Lin Zhi, who is in charge of the Xu Heng case, the Long Xiaotian case and the Sha Zhizhou case, is the most suitable. Otherwise, there are many officialdoms and complicated factions. How could the position of Beitian City Bureau Chief be so easy? What about Captain Lin who has no backer? You know, once you secure this position, it is natural to take over the standing committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee that were vacated after Niu Chengjin's death. Opportunities for such triple jumps in the officialdom are absolutely rare. How could it be possible? Why not try hard to play the game? Aren¡¯t the human spirits all aware that this mess in Beitian is difficult to clean up, and are they afraid of getting their hands burned by this piece of yam? After Lin Zhi was forced into this position, his attitude changed drastically. He suddenly compromised with me on Xu Heng's issue. He didn't seek merit but sought no fault. Isn't it precisely for this reason
But now he has taken the initiative to give me a tail that can kill him politically or even his life. Why is this?
I was confused in my heart, but I said calmly: "The Forest Bureau invited me to drink tea with a tea set worth 1.8 million yuan. Is it to show off its wealth, or is it finally planning to open the skylight and speak frankly to me?"
"I'm joking. Although Lin doesn't dare to say that he has a clean mind, he can still be considered clean and self-sufficient. He has some bottom line. Don't say I'm not greedy. Even if I am greedy, I don't dare to show off. You can go back and ask your Dong Xiaoye about this. Donated it to the elementary school where she serves as the honorary principal. How dare you be so greedy? I don¡¯t have to bother you to help those children, haha." Lin Zhi asked me as he filled up his tea supply: "Is this tea palatable? "
The words ¡®Go back and ask your Dong Xiaoye¡¯ already made me panic, and then he suddenly changed the topic. How could I react at the moment? He nodded in astonishment and said: "It has a mellow aroma and light taste, fresh but not bitter. It is not a good tea, but coincidentally, it just suits my taste."
Lin Zhi smiled and said: "That's right. This tea was specially brought to you to drink. It naturally caters to your taste. However, this tea set was not taken seriously by others. They just knew that I must not have taken good care of it here. I brought a set with me"
Before he could finish speaking, I interrupted: "Miss Third has been here?!"
But Lin Zhi shook his head and said with a smile: "Miss Third has never been here, but she knows you will come."
I frowned, very unhappy, "So she had someone send tea and tea sets?" A person with a high IQ wouldn't be so humiliating, right? Just to show that you can think of everything before me? Or can you guess everything I think?
Lin Zhi cooed at the cup in my hand and said, "If it was the tea she sent, would you still drink it?"
I was startled and then I heard Lin Zhi sigh: "Miss Third is a very human being. There are very few things that she doesn't expect. But she is not a god either. At least she can't do anything well to please you." , so it still has to be done by someone else If you taste this tea again, you will find this delicious light and dark tea.You can't master it even if you make it yourself, right? "
I don¡¯t have to think about it anymore, and I have no idea that Lin Zhi¡¯s words are equivalent to admitting that he and the third lady are indeed colluding. He stood up and blurted out a name, "Dongfang Mercy!"
