? Xiang Tianliang looked back and saw that the person sitting in the driver's seat of the police car was Yu Zhonghao, the head of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

Yu Zhonghao was wearing plain clothes. He smiled slightly, took off his sunglasses, pushed open the door on the passenger side of the car, and gestured to Xiang Tianliang to get in the car.

"Yu Zhonghao, aren't you here to catch me again?" Xiang Tianliang got into the car and squatted on the seat.

Yu Zhonghao smiled and said: "You are really right, I was ordered to invite you."

"Bah, I am a high-ranking national cadre who is loyal to my duties and abides by the law. I have just been commended by the municipal party committee and the city government. Why do you have to arrest me?"

"Haha, it's the same old thing. You say that before you go in." Yu Zhonghao pointed to the door of the Construction Bureau office building that was being repaired and said with a smile, "I heard that your boy is now the director's celebrity. In charge of such a prestigious project, don't say anything.

You can also make 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."

Xiang Tianliang scolded: "You are a dog and a rat, you are meddling in other people's business. If I commit a crime, it will be handled by the Discipline Inspection Commission. It is not your turn to point fingers."

Yu Zhonghao said heartily, you said you don't miss the police industry anymore, and you scolded me one by one, but in fact you still can't let go of it.

"Don't be so harsh, kid. I still owe you the debt from New Year's Eve."

Xiang Tianliang was happy when he heard this, with a look of satisfaction and pride on his face. He set up a trick on New Year's Eve, which was his proud life experience.

"Yu Zhonghao, you are no better than Xiao Jiannan. You are too stingy and not open-minded enough. You should feel honored that you lost to a rare genius like me, instead of feeling resentful."

Yu Zhonghao listened and smiled helplessly, "You brat is just bragging. If you say you are a once-in-a-millennium genius, I won't object."

Xiang Tianliang said with a bad smile: "Besides, you, the people's police, went to someone's house to steal things on New Year's Eve and were made into a miserable mess. Do you have the nerve to tell me?"

Yu Zhonghao put away his smile, took a file bag and handed it to Xiang Tianliang, "Look, it's related to you."

Xiang Tianliang sighed and opened the file bag. There was only a piece of paper inside, with the words "For exclusive use of the Qinghe Municipal Party Committee General Office" printed on the front.

There are a few lines on the paper and it says:

Municipal Construction and Planning Bureau, Comrade Wang Zigui: I would like to ask Comrade Xiang Tianliang, deputy director of the bureau office, to come to the municipal party committee guest house as soon as possible, Duan Renjie.

Xiang Tianliang asked curiously: "Secretary Duan is looking for me? Yu Zhonghao, are you not mistaken?"

Duan Renjie, Secretary of the Qinghe Municipal Party Committee and Director of the Standing Committee of the Qinghe Municipal People's Congress, what can he do if he finds a small deputy-level cadre?

"Haha, you are pretty good at recognizing people."

Yu Zhonghao ignored Xiang Tianliang, but grabbed the file bag, stretched it out the car window and shouted.

"Um, Chen Dabao, right? Come here."

Yu Zhonghao knew Chen Dabao, and he followed Chen Dabao in order to investigate the theft of the office of the Director of the Construction Bureau.

Chen Dabao ran over and said, "Captain Yu, what are your orders?"

"Chen Dabao, please give this to Director Wang and tell him that Secretary Duan of the Municipal Party Committee has something to do with Xiang Tianliang."

Before Chen Dabao could respond, Yu Zhonghao threw the portfolio to him, stepped on the accelerator, and the car flew out with a roar.

"Yu Zhonghao, what do you mean? Kidnapping?" Xiang Tianliang pulled his face down.

Yu Zhonghao said: "Don't get me wrong. Secretary Duan and a group of members of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee are visiting several leaders from the capital and the province at the Municipal Party Committee Guest House. One of them wants to see you by name. Secretary Duan does not dare to neglect and orders me immediately.

Come and invite you."

The leader wants to see me? Which leader? Xiang Tianliang murmured in his heart. Xiang's family has been farmers for generations, and his ancestors lived in a remote area. Before this, he had never heard of any relatives or friends who were officials. He was just a kid, even though he had been in college for four years.

It seems like I haven't met any high-ranking officials in the capital.

"Hey, who is the leader?" Xiang Tianliang asked curiously.

"Secretary Duan won't let me tell you. You'll find out after you go there." Yu Zhonghao looked enigmatic.

Xiang Tianliang's heart moved, "Yu Zhonghao, it seems that nothing serious has happened to us in Qinghe, what are the leaders above doing?"

"Guess."

Xiang Tianliang said, "Is it about the March 18th Qinghe Tea House fire case?"

"Smart, the dog's nose is still there."

Xiang Tianliang said: "I heard that the 318 Qinghe Tea House fire was an accidental fire and the case has been closed. What are these leaders doing here?"

Yu Zhonghao smiled and said: "You also believe what is publicly announced."

"Yu Zhonghao, please tell me a little bit. What's so fishy about the Qinghe Teahouse fire on March 18th?"

Yu Zhonghao sneered and asked: "On the night of March 18th, you were at the Qinghe Teahouse. What other seven fairies did you save, including Director Xie's precious daughter Xie Na? Not only that, after the fire broke out, you escaped and changed your body.

The clothes returned to the fire scene, and I sat in the car with Xiao Jiannan and muttered for a long time, could you not know?"

Xiang Tianliang punched Yu Zhonghao, "***, it turns out you were also there that night."

Yu Zhonghao said: "Of course, I am also a member of the 318 Qinghe Teahouse Fire Task Force."

"Oh, is it really famous?"

Yu Zhonghao asked again: "What did you and Xiao Jiannan discover?"

Xiang Tianliang smiled, "You can ask Xiao Jiannan."

Yu Zhonghao smiled bitterly and said: "Will this guy tell me? These days he is so arrogant and always absent from his post. I have looked for him, but I can't even see him."

Xiang Tianliang nodded in understanding. The Municipal Public Security Bureau and the Qinghe District Bureau have always been at odds with each other. Unless they cooperate in handling cases, they will not exchange information.

The two of them suddenly stopped talking. There is always a limit to trust. Xiang Tianliang is living a happy life now and does not want to get involved in things that have nothing to do with his own work.

When the car arrived at the municipal party committee guest house, the two got out of the car and walked in side by side.

Xiang Tianliang was stunned as soon as he entered the reception room on the first floor of the guest house.

Municipal Party Committee Secretary Duan Renjie, Mayor Chen Guohua, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee Zhang Haifeng, Qinghe Troika and eight other members of the Municipal Party Committee's Standing Committee were all present. Except for the Troika who was sitting, the other Standing Committee members were standing.

Also standing were Municipal Public Security Director Xie Ziheng, Municipal Public Security Bureau Political Commissar Zhang Shan, and Municipal Public Security Bureau Deputy Director Liu Qiming.

On the sofa on the other side, there were five leaders sitting, and Xiang Tianliang had never seen any of them.

In the middle of the reception room, there is a giant Chinese painting "Scenery of the Qinghe River" hanging. An old man, wearing a beige windbreaker, with a thin back, leaning on a cane, with his back to everyone, is staring at the Chinese painting.

This back view is very familiar to Xiang Tianliang.

"teacher."

The old man turned around slowly, expressionless, and silently looked towards the sky.

His name is Yi Xiangrui. He is sixty-five years old. He is a professor at Beijing Police University, deputy director of the Department of Criminal Investigation, and an authority on domestic criminal investigation technology. He has served as Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Public Security, Director of the Technical Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, and the Sub-region of the International Criminal Police Organization.

The chief representative is a highly respected veteran in the domestic elite.

During the four years of college, Xiang Tianliang was a frequent visitor to Yi Xiangrui's family, and he was also Yi Xiangrui's default disciple. However, he had set a rule that Xiang Tianliang was not allowed to reveal the master-disciple relationship to the outside world.

Yi Ruixiang said nothing, withdrew his cold gaze, turned around and left.

Xiang Tianliang stood there frozen, feeling uneasy in his heart. His mentor was the person he least wanted to see, because he couldn't explain how he went from being a talented student at the National Police University to being a cadre of the Construction Bureau.

The atmosphere in the reception room was a bit awkward.

Yu Zhonghao pulled Xiang Tianliang and introduced the leaders present to him.

"Xiang Tianliang, this is Li Jian'an, director of the Fire Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, this is Jiang Yunlong, director of the Provincial Public Security Department, Xiao Yang, deputy director of the Provincial Public Security Department, and Zheng Zheng, chief commander of the Provincial Fire Brigade Bin… you all know the leaders of the municipal party committee, so I won’t introduce them one by one.”

It was really painful to be watched by so many leaders and have to say hello one by one. After going around all the time, Xiang Tianliang was sweating all over his back.

Fortunately, someone came to the rescue at this time. A waitress stood at the door and said to Duan Renjie: "Secretary Duan, the chief please accompany Director Jiang and Director Li and Deputy Director Shen of the Ministry of Public Security to his room, and this Comrade Xiang Tianliang."

In Room 201, Yi Xiangrui and Duan Renjie were sitting on two single sofas. Chang Jiang Yunlong, director of the Provincial Public Security Department, Li Jianan, director of the Fire Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, and Shen Tao, deputy director of the Technical Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security, were sitting on the other side. on the couch.

As a junior, Xiang Tianliang could only stand.

Yi Xiangrui looked at Xiang Tianliang and asked, "Tell me, what happened to you? How did you get into the Construction Bureau?"

"Teacher, I..."

"Crack."

The crutch in Yi Xiangrui's hand hit Xiang Tianliang hard.

He stood there facing the sky, motionless.

Before Yi Xiangrui's crutch could be raised for the second time, Jiang Yunlong rushed over and grabbed the crutch, "Old leader, please calm down. Xiao Xiang is not to blame for this, it's all because we didn't do our job well."

"Humph." Yi Xiangrui pushed Jiang Yunlong away and tapped his cane heavily on the floor a few times, "Yunlong, I'm sending my most proud student back to Dongjiang Province. Is this how you waste talent in Dongjiang Province? Isn’t there a place for him in the Dongjiang Public Security System?”

"Old leader, I am responsible for this, please scold me." Jiang Yunlong said guiltily.

Duan Renjie, secretary of the municipal party committee, was even more apologetic, "Yi Lao, I'm sorry, please calm down. Director Jiang is not to blame for this matter. It is all my fault and that of our Qinghe Municipal Committee. We need to make a deep reflection and review."

"Alas..." Yi Xiangrui sighed, his expression slowly softening.

He looked at Xiang Tianliang again, looked at it for a long time, and asked slowly: "Do you know why I came to Qinghe?"

Xiang Tianliang said carefully: "Teacher, you are here for the 318 Qinghe Fire Case."

Jiang Yunlong next to him was startled when he heard it, and he hit the mark, it was indeed extraordinary.

"I heard that you were at the scene?"

"Yes, several classmates invited me to drink tea."

Yi Xiangrui nodded slightly, "Then tell me what you think."

"this……"
