Rebirth of Corrupt Officials

Chapter 33 - I



When Jiang Xiaochuan got up, he opened the curtains and saw the gloomy sky outside. It seemed like it was going to rain.

Chengzhou Municipal Government was really on the verge of collapse. That sentence suddenly came to his mind.

The summer in Chengzhou was extremely long, sometimes making people suffered.

Summer was coming, and together with it the ever-changing weather and storms.

He brought an umbrella with him when he went out. It rained on the way to the city hall by car, luckily, he brought an umbrella.

Holding an umbrella and walking slowly from the stop sign to the trees with canopy-like coverings, the sound of rain suddenly became quieter. The old tree-lined avenues looked very dim at this time, with too little light, making people feel wet and cold.

He walked around the flower bed next to the tree, and when he walked past the guard room, he suddenly stopped for some reason.

Wei Bin, leisurely reading the newspaper in the guard room with his feet up, glanced up inadvertently and saw Jiang Xiaochuan. He quickly stood up and put down the newspaper: “Hello, Mayor Jiang!”

“Wei Bin, it’s okay, just sit down and read your story.” Seeing his reaction, Jiang Xiaochuan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, “I just suddenly want to stop and take a look.”

Stopped and looking at the municipal building and this gate. Politicians and officials coming and going. Some went out of this gate to go to higher places, and some came out of the gate.

Once they walked in, it took a while for them to go out. The seemingly peaceful place was always filled with desire and money, power and greed. Justice was stained here, and the sound of the death knell…

Jiang Xiaochuan thought of this term, suddenly smiled, put down the black umbrella, readjusted his direction, and walked into the municipal government.

Not long ago, right in front of this door, Qian Qiming was sitting in the car greeting him.

Now, where was he?

.

When Jiang Xiaochuan walked into the front hall, he saw Lin Shanyi and Wei Dong walking together. Lin Shanyi was half a step ahead. He was talking to Wei Dong with a smile on his face, and there was something indescribable in his eyes. It seemed a little complicated and a little happy, a kind of bystander and gloating attitude.

Lin Shanyi must be very happy to have lost Zhou Qian, who had conflicts with him, right?

Wei Dong and Zhou Qian had long-standing grievances, and the gap between them was deep. If Zhou Qian fell, they would applaud the loudest.

“Mayor Jiang, good morning.” Lin Shanyi saw Jiang Xiaochuan put away his umbrella and took a few steps towards him. The distance between the two people was exactly two or three steps, neither too far nor too close.

Jiang Xiaochuan smiled lightly and said, “Mayor Lin, good morning.”

“The wind is going to blow.”

Lin Shanyi looked up at the transparent glass door, which was gloomy and gloomy. He said this seemingly casually.

Jiang Xiaochuan also turned to look, “It’s already raining.”

“The wind is helping the rain, but I don’t know where the wind is coming from.” Lin Shanyi withdrew his gaze and looked at Jiang Xiaochuan.

Jiang Xiaochuan’s expression was extremely calm, and there was no sign of any emotional fluctuations. He just said, “Who knows.”

“Yeah, who knows.” Lin Shanyi actually made an extremely helpless expression, shrugged his shoulders, and then looked at the person behind him and waved his hand, “It’s almost working time, Wei Dong, you go ahead. Mayor Jiang, I have something to do over there, so I’ll leave first.”

“Go slowly, Mayor Lin.”

Soon Lin Shanyi left, and Jiang Xiaochuan was all alone. For some reason, at that moment, Jiang Xiaochuan suddenly felt that this person was very aloof. He was startled for a moment by this sudden thought and then smiled.

Whether he was noble or not, who could tell clearly?

.

He turned his head and looked at the corner where they kept the umbrella. A black straight-handled umbrella was placed among many beautiful and colorful folding umbrellas. It was a bit abrupt and out of place, and the dark color was easily depressing.

However, Jiang Xiaochuan just glanced at it and ignored it.

On the way to his office, he was still thinking about what Wei Dong and Lin Shanyi were talking about when they stood together early in the morning.

In the office, Wei Lai always arrived a little early. When he saw Jiang Xiaochuan coming, he said hello as usual. Jiang Xiaochuan also nodded, “Good morning.”

When he entered his office, the first thing he saw on the table was a thick stack of documents on display, and for some reason, there were suddenly more recent affairs. Jiang Xiaochuan estimated that this was because the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection had a strong presence in Chengzhou recently, right?

He took a copy and looked at it, but his eyes suddenly froze.

It was the report on the Rong case given by Lu Xiu.

There were still those ordinary words, and there was no new development. It was just that the scapegoat said something new – although it was also a lie.

The scapegoat pushed out by Rong Shaobai said, “Everyone knows what Rong family is like. We have our own secrets. He was eavesdropping. According to the rules, he should be killed like that, so we took action.”

But when asked what the secret was, he refused to tell.

Jiang Xiaochuan read the entire document and found that the scapegoat seemed to be very loyal to the Rong family. The newly recorded confession actually only contains a few vague new things, and most of them were told to muddy the waters and divert attention.

In fact, this case could already be convicted at this point, because there would be no value in further investigation. Jiang Xiaochuan believed that this scapegoat should really be the person who attacked Uncle Qiu’s son Qiu Yi, but he was definitely not the mastermind.

Qiu Yi was dead, Uncle Qiu was dead, how far could this case go?
