Chapter 176 Rules of the Game, Better to Kill the Wrong Than Let Go

Du Ziteng hung up the phone.

Turn around and look at the middle-aged man in the study. Although the man was woken up from his sleep late at night by an unexpected incident and his complexion was not very good, he was still neatly dressed and even his hair was meticulously applied with hair wax. Appears to be calm and confident.

Du Ziteng stood slightly forward and said in a respectful tone: "Congressman Wang, I have informed you about all aspects. The people below will definitely do their best to search and rescue Secretary Hou."

Congressman Wang sat on a chair, gently wiping his lenses with a glasses cloth, his movements slow but solemn, as if he was also using this method to clear his mind.

He pondered for a moment and asked: "Has the identity of the kidnapper been confirmed?"

Du Ziteng said solemnly: "According to the reporter, the person who attacked Secretary Hou was wearing a mask and could not see his face clearly, so it is not possible yet. Confirm.”

Member Wang: “How many attackers are there?”

Du Zi Teng responded quickly: "There was only one attacker at the scene. According to the description of the reporter, the patrol room has made a preliminary judgment that the attacker should be an adult male."

Member Wang said "Oh" lightly, and a flash of light flashed across his face With a complicated expression, he said in a deep tone: "Could it be those people who did it?"

Du Ziteng's heart trembled, and he said more respectfully: "We can't tell yet, but I have deployed manpower to closely monitor their movements, and I haven't found any unusual movements on their part for the time being."

Congressman Wang sighed, He sighed with emotion: "Secretary Hou has been with me since I was not elected as a member of parliament. It has been seven or eight years in a blink of an eye. He was kidnapped. I am very worried now." His life is safe."

Congressman Wang paused, then said meaningfully: "I remember that Secretary Hou was also a poor person. His wife died of illness a few years ago, and now he is alone with no relatives or companions. ? "

Du Ziteng looked down at the floor and replied seriously: "It is true. Secretary Hou's parents also passed away early, and he lives alone now. However, it is said that the proprietress of the ramen restaurant at the scene of the crime has a close relationship with Secretary Hou. ""

Congressman Wang showed doubts.

Du Ziteng immediately added an explanation: "The name of the proprietress of the ramen restaurant is Li Xiuwan, and she is a divorced woman. Coincidentally, she looks very similar to Secretary Hou's late wife. Today, Secretary Hou went to her shop after get off work , it’s to celebrate Li Xiuwan’s birthday.”

Member Wang gently put down the glasses cloth in his hand and asked: “Where is Li Xiuwan now?”

Du Ziteng replied. : "Li Xiuwan is currently being detained by the police station for investigation."

Member Wang frowned and said in a serious tone: "Investigation? Do you want her to suffer additional panic at this time? Secretary Hou is now alive and dead. I wonder how we can let his sweetheart be treated rudely by the patrol room at this time!"

Du Ziteng felt a chill in his heart and responded immediately:

"My subordinates were negligent. I immediately sent people to the patrol room to take Li Xiuwan out safely and ensure that she was placed in an absolutely safe place. In this way, once Secretary Hou is successfully rescued, he can be reunited with Li Xiuwan as soon as possible . "

Member Wang's face turned slightly, and You asked worriedly: "I remember that the director of the patrol room is Wang Yilin."

Du Ziteng quietly corrected: "Bureau Wang died in the line of duty some time ago. Since then, The position of police chief has been vacant. At present, the special commissioner sent from Shangcheng is temporarily in charge of the work. "

Congressman Wang seemed to recall something and said solemnly:

" How can this work? "The position of the director of the patrol room is very important. How can it be vacant for a long time? Furthermore, the special commissioner sent from Shangcheng is supposed to inspect and guide the work. How can we add extra burdens to the special commissioner and make him overworked?"

Du Ziteng nodded gently, with a dignified and solemn expression on his face. However, deep down in his heart, he couldn't help but curse:

"I remember that this was not what you and other congressmen said before."
< br>"At that time, you Mingming advocated that since the special commissioner can effectively use the resources of the patrol room, and Wang Bureau happened to die in the line of duty, it is better to let the special commissioner guide the work of the patrol room. If it is passed on to the top, the special commissioner will take the initiative to help build the ninth district. , It belongs to those who can do more work."

Congressman Wang pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke, with a tone that considered the overall situation and considered all aspects:

"Under the current situation, It is really not appropriate to directly hold a meeting and vote to parachute a director. Let's go directly to the patrol room to guide the work and select a suitable candidate internally to promote to the leader. This may be able to more effectively promote the search and rescue of Secretary Hou. .”

Du Ziteng understood Councilor Wang's intention by heart, which meant that he should promote one of his own, or "his own dog", from the patrol room.

A name already appeared in his mind. He replied: "Understood. After I go there, I will promote the most suitable candidate from the patrol room as soon as possible."

Du Ziteng paused slightly, a trace of hesitation flashed between his eyebrows, and there was a hint in his voice. Looking a little unsure: "It's just that I'm a little worried about whether other congressmen..."

Congressman Wang waved his hand disapprovingly and said in a firm tone:

"Secretary Hou is a confidant of mine. Now his life or death is uncertain, and the nature of the incident is also unclear. At this moment, if anyone dares to come out and play against me, they are undoubtedly throwing feces on themselves."

There was a sharpness in his eyes, and he continued:

"Before the situation is completely clear, keeping a distance and waiting to see what happens is the smartest choice. I have dealt with this issue with them. After so many years, I have known them very well, and none of them would choose this moment to be the leader."

"And if Secretary Hou is really kidnapped by one of them, then this behavior has been broken. Without our rules of the game, he would not take the initiative to jump into the open at this time and arouse suspicion."

Congressman Wang chuckled twice, with a hint of coldness and sarcasm in his laughter. :

"If something like that really happened, haha——, without our efforts at all, everyone would join forces to kill him."

Du Ziteng suddenly realized that he had no regard for those members of the nine-district governing government. We have a deeper insight into the complex rules of the game between them.

He understands that some treacherous means can only be used under the table, and on the table, everyone must abide by those game rules.

The more senior a person is, the more carefully they need to maintain these rules. They cannot cross the line, otherwise they will incur fear and attack from everyone.

Member Wang glanced at Du Ziteng. Among the secretaries under him, Hou Wendong was the one who followed him the longest and was most admired by him. Compared with the other secretaries, they were a little less interesting.

If the positions of Hou Wendong and Du Ziteng were reversed, in the face of the current situation, there would be no need to waste so much saliva on making points.

The moment the incident broke out, Hou Wendong must have acted quickly. He went to the patrol room to deploy and promote his confidants. At the same time, he would definitely use the toughest attitude to safely transfer Du Ziteng's relatives before reporting to him. , try your best to control the deterioration of the situation.

Congressman Wang sighed deeply and said in a firm and heavy tone: "We must order the patrol room to go all out and find the whereabouts of Secretary Hou at any cost."

Du Ziteng maintained Silent, as if listening quietly, waiting for Councilor Wang's last words.

“Try everything possible to rescue Secretary Hou, but if the kidnappers make excessive demands, let Secretary Hou leave with dignity. After all, as a member of the ninth district executive government, I will never ask any criminal questions. The forces bowed their heads and surrendered.”

Du Ziteng raised his head and looked at the cold light reflected under Congressman Wang's lenses, and could only respond indifferently: "Yes."

Congressman Wang put away the coldness on his face and said gently: "You handle it at the first scene , I will give you the discretion to deal with urgent matters. You have the power to do it with confidence. If Hou Mi is gone, you will be the one I rely on most in the future. Don't let me down."

Du Ziteng felt a chill rising from his spine, and his scalp was slightly numb. There was a mixture of fear and surprise in my heart.

He took a deep breath, braced himself, bowed ninety degrees, and left quickly after receiving the order.

After Du Ziteng left, Councilor Wang slowly opened the desk drawer, took out an old mobile phone, and then inserted a brand new phone card.

His movements were skillful and swift, as if he had done this countless times.

Then he entered a series of numbers calmly and dialed. The call was quickly answered, but no one answered.

“Initiate emergency plan No. 4 and deal with all the threads on the two lines that Hou Wendong was responsible for touching.”

“Although the nature of the incident is temporarily unknown, We would rather kill the mistake than let it go. We must carry out the necessary self-cleaning before the situation worsens."

The cold voice echoed faintly in the study...
