Chapter 94 Lu An investigated
The layman watches the excitement while the expert listens to the details. Both Liu Dongsheng and Qin Hailong were veterans of the Discipline Inspection Commission. Therefore, when they heard Lu An's detailed and thorough answer, they realized that he did have something.
Liu Dongsheng waved his hand and removed his cadres to show his trust.
Qin Hailong couldn't accept it: "You are lying! I received a report that it was you who abused your position as a member of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection to make profits for yourself!"
It turns out there is a backup plan waiting here.
Lu An immediately understood Qin Hailong's plan. If this matter was really confirmed, it would not be as simple as being dismissed from his job. He might even be punished with a criminal record, and his life would be ruined!
In that case, I won’t be polite.
Lu An raised his head and said, "Director Qin should be talking about the paging station. I did ask a friend for help because I know that the New Huai Group is developing a private paging station business recently, so I plan to find a breakthrough point in this direction."
Lu An interrupted what Qin Hailong hadn't said yet: "I know Director Qin wants to say that it doesn't conform to procedures. I don't know about this because I was urgently seconded by Director Ye and have not received complete training on the work of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. If there is anything that does not conform to procedures, I will review it."
Liu Dongsheng nodded to show that he understood: "Besides, the Discipline Inspection Commission does have the procedure of private investigation. Strictly speaking, Comrade Lu An, you have not violated the discipline. On the contrary, your work attitude of putting work first is worthy of praise."
Liu Dongsheng not only praised Lu An, but also criticized Qin Hailong.
"Director Qin, as a member of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, I have to say a few words to you. You are also a veteran cadre of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. Why are you still so reckless in your work? Some things need to be investigated thoroughly before making a decision!"
"We must remember our mission. We cannot let a bad cadre go, nor can we wrongly accuse any good cadre. We must not bring personal emotions into our work!"
As a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, Liu Dongsheng's words were quite serious.
Even though he knew that Deputy Secretary Yan Chengguang was backing him up, Qin Hailong still broke out in a cold sweat.
However, Lu An still did not intend to stop there: "Director Qin, I originally planned to sort out the materials and report to you tomorrow. Now that Director Liu is here, I hope to communicate with Director Ye and start the investigation of Xinhuai Group as soon as possible!"
How to use the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection to crack down on the Xinhuai Group that suddenly emerged was what Lu An had been thinking about on his way back from the paging station.
If what Mr. Hu said was true, and the Xinhuai Group was really related to Yan Chengguang, not to mention that starting an investigation would bring me trouble, even starting an investigation would not get past Qin Hailong.
Unexpectedly, Qin Hailong played such a trick today and even invited Liu Dongsheng, a member of the Standing Committee of the Discipline Inspection Commission. If I don’t make good use of this opportunity, I will be very sorry for Qin Hailong’s efforts.
As expected, when Liu Dongsheng heard what Lu An said, he immediately retracted his foot that was about to take a step forward. He looked at Lu An deeply, and never expected that he had been tricked by this guy, so he had to support him.
Qin Hailong felt even more overwhelmed.
As a completely open "Yan faction" official within the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, it was impossible for him to support an investigation into the Xinhuai Group. However, in front of Liu Dongsheng, he could not openly oppose it.
After much thought, Qin Hailong could only explain that the Xinhuai Group was a private enterprise, and even the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection would not be able to openly conduct an investigation.
Qin Hailong himself felt aggrieved by these words. After all, he was the deputy director of the Third Department. However, he had to be so servile in front of a young guy who had only been working for a month or two. It was really humiliating.
But he had to give sufficient reasons in front of Liu Dongsheng.
At this moment, Qin Hailong really wanted to slap himself. Why did he have to drag Liu Dongsheng over for no reason? Not only did he waste his face and favors, but Liu Dongsheng was also a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and his leader, Qin Hailong. It took him a lot of effort to invite him.
As a result, not only did he fail to completely kill Lu An, but he was also able to be defeated by the other party using Liu Dongsheng.
Liu Dongsheng on the opposite side was equally embarrassed. As the director of the Cadre Supervision Office of the Discipline Inspection Commission, he only needed to do his job well and he didn't want to get involved in the internal affairs of the three departments.
But now Lu An said it in front of him. As a member of the Standing Committee of the Discipline Inspection Commission, he certainly couldn't just walk away. Otherwise, if it got out, people would think that he, a member of the Standing Committee, was also afraid of Yan Chengguang, which would not sound good.
So Liu Dongsheng had no choice but to take over the conversation: "Comrade Hailong, although in principle our Discipline Inspection Commission only investigates problematic cadres within the party, if the case of problematic cadres involves any unit or enterprise, we also have the right to require these units to cooperate with the Discipline Inspection Commission's investigation."
It must be said that Liu Dongsheng, as an old bureaucrat, is quite capable and his words were flawless.
First of all, he certainly agreed to define the scope of work of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, but at the same time emphasized that in principle, if a problematic case really involved any unit, it could also be asked to cooperate with the Commission for Discipline Inspection in the investigation.
Having said that, it seems like nothing has been said, and it can even be interpreted from both positive and negative sides.
Qin Hailong is also a seasoned veteran. When he heard Liu Dongsheng say this, he immediately tasted his own flavor.
"We will keep in mind the director's teachings and will check every case we handle repeatedly. We will not let a bad guy go and will never wrongly accuse a good guy!" said Qin Hailong.
Qin Hailong is obviously interpreting this in the direction of a non-stick pan.
The so-called repeated checking is nothing more than the final confirmation that the evidence is insufficient to initiate an investigation into the Xinhuai Group!
Lu An would not allow this to happen. He immediately said, "I understand. Thank you, Director Qin. I will contact Director Ye immediately and report the case to him!"
……
At this moment, in the Mingzheng Guesthouse in Pingjiang, Ye Xianggao, Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others were also having a headache in the conference room.
They had just held a meeting with the county discipline inspection commission to review the case, and now the case has reached a stalemate again.
This does not mean that Wei Dezheng has started to resist censorship again. On the contrary, all the secrets in Wei Dezheng's mind have been completely emptied out.
However, the Discipline Inspection Commission does not mean that the case can be closed just because the suspect confesses. Even if you know that someone did something and he admits that he did it, it will never be closed if there is no corresponding evidence to form a chain of evidence.
The reason is simple. People can lie, but objective evidence cannot. What if Wei Dezheng honestly pleads guilty now, and then changes his mind after the Commission for Discipline Inspection transfers the case to the Procuratorate? If there is no complete chain of evidence to support it, it will be embarrassing. The Commission for Discipline Inspection will not allow such a thing to happen.
"Director, we have been investigating cases for so many years, but we have never seen someone as cunning as Wei Dezheng. Not only did he split up many of his funds into small amounts, but he also used many shell companies as a cover. It is very difficult to track him down, and our investigation has come to a standstill."
"For example, for this sum of over one million yuan, we can only find that it flowed into a certain unit in the provincial capital, but if we want to locate it specifically, we may need to apply for the assistance of a professional audit team."
"Director, how about we transfer Team Leader Lu An back to continue leading our investigation?"
Zhao Hu suddenly proposed, and his words were unanimously agreed by Zhang Long and others. After all, from the initial arrest operation, to the later breaking of Wei Dezheng's psychological defenses, as well as the Nanhu Old Duck Soup Restaurant, etc., they relied on Lu An's guidance to perfect the chain of evidence step by step.
Therefore, now that the investigation was at a loss again, the first person they thought of was Lu An.
However, Zhao Hu's proposal was strongly opposed by the city and county discipline inspection commissions, especially the city discipline inspection commission. The person in charge of the case was Yuan Ruixin, director of the first supervision office of the city discipline inspection commission. He believed that the so-called contact with Lu An was totally unnecessary.
"I think our current investigation has only entered the stage of fine-tuning. There is no so-called deadlock. In fact, we have a grasp of where all the stolen money has gone. We just need to trace and identify it in detail. This kind of work cannot be rushed!"
"And I think it wouldn't be of any practical significance even if we contacted Team Leader Lu An!"
Yuan Ruixin's reasons were very sufficient. After all, the case had now reached a stage where even Wei Dezheng himself could not provide any substantial clues. What else could a "former son-in-law" like him do?
"In fact, I still admire Team Leader Lu. It's great that he can sacrifice his relatives for the sake of justice, but this is the limit of his help. He can't provide us with any valuable clues. On the contrary, if we contact him, he will know the current progress of the investigation."
"Of course, I fully trust Comrade Lu An's party spirit, but this will still add unnecessary trouble to our investigation!"
Zhao Hu, Zhang Long and others were very angry and thought that Yuan Ruixin was targeting Lu An. After all, the joint investigation by the three-level disciplinary inspection committees had already divided the credit a lot. If there was another Lu An now, how would the credit be divided?
Therefore, they tried their best to prevent Lu An from coming back, and there might even be some personal emotions involved. After all, Pan Yunpeng, the deputy secretary of the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, was also removed because of Lu An.
The county discipline inspection commission also supported Yuan Ruixin's judgment, believing that Lu An was, after all, an ordinary person and could not provide any help.
"The case has now reached a critical moment. Comrade Lu An can no longer provide any useful help. On the contrary, it may cause trouble. We also think there is no need to contact him!"
Just when the city and county disciplinary inspection committees were fully opposed to it, Ye Xianggao's liaison officer Xiao Li hurried into the meeting room.
After reporting to Ye Xianggao, he announced to everyone: "I just received a call from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, saying that Comrade Lu An has tracked down the whereabouts of one of the stolen funds and can cooperate with us in the investigation!"
In one sentence, Yuan Ruixin and the municipal and county discipline inspection committees were slapped in the face...
