Other things?
Song Guanchao seed thoughtful, vaguely guessing at sothing.
"Okay, I'll help you get in touch."
He took Qin Yuejin into the police station, and Director Wang imdiately sent him to the interrogation room to start taking his statent.
Song Guanchao dialed Jiang Yuan's phone number: "Hello, Mayor Jiang, I hope I'm not interrupting your work?"
"It's District Chief Song, is there sothing you need?"
"Indeed, there's sothing I need to report to Mayor Jiang."
Song Guanchao stated matter-of-factly: "Just now, Qin Yuejin ca to the police station to turn himself in."
Jiang Yuan's heart sank. After Luo Sanming was caught, he had been suspecting whether Liang Jianfeng had deliberately released misinformation by saying that Qin Yuejin was still alive, just to mislead Luo Sanming.
It turns out, he really is alive.
And now he's surrendered.
"The police departnt is currently under Mayor Zheng's supervision, you should report to him."
"Qin Yuejin asked to tell Mayor Jiang that he wants to et you."
"Although Qin Yuejin used to be the Public Security Bureau Chief, he's committed a cri now and must face trial. I have nothing to say to criminals, the process must be followed. The organization will not be lenient with a criminal."
If not for knowing Jiang Yuan's true nature, Song Guanchao might have believed his righteous tone.
"Mayor Jiang, my personal suggestion is, you'd better make a trip to the police station."
"What does Secretary Song an by this? Could it be that Qin Yuejin said sothing bad about ? Haha, I, Jiang Yuan, have a clear conscience. If he wants to sling mud, let the police investigate , I'm not afraid of an investigation."
"Mayor Jiang misunderstands, Qin Yuejin just said he wants to see you, nothing else. But... when Qin Yuejin surrendered today, we didn't find his service gun. He said his service gun was washed away by the river when he fell into the river."
Song Guanchao chuckled and said sothing that made no sense.
But upon hearing it, Jiang Yuan was startled, feeling a chill down his spine.
"Which police station is he at?"
"Xue Ming Road."
"Got it."
Smiling, Song Guanchao put the phone back in his pocket. He had a rough idea of why Qin Yuejin wanted to see Jiang Yuan.
That handgun probably wasn't lost.
Of course, lost or not, it doesn't matter.
What matters is the police didn't find the service gun on him.
Since it wasn't on him, this service gun could potentially appear anywhere.
More likely, one day, so reckless madman could show up at the governnt building downstairs with Qin Yuejin's gun, ending Jiang Yuan's life as he goes to and from work with a single shot.
It might also appear outside his child's school, shooting his son or daughter.
As long as the gun hasn't been found by the police, anything is possible.
Qin Yuejin wants to see him for only two possible reasons.
First, he needs money.
Most of his money has been frozen, with a small part successfully transferred overseas.
Though he's about to go to jail, his wife and kids are still outside and they need money.
And once he gets out, probably in ten or so years, he will still need money.
Second, he wants Jiang Yuan to help smooth over relations to get a lighter sentence.
Standing in the courtyard smoking, Song Guanchao found himself seeing Qin Yuejin in a new light.
This guy's brain has truly started working smarter.
He actually ca up with such a clever trick.
Indeed, when people are at their wit's end, they can often unleash incredible potential.
Even soone as dim-witted as Qin Yuejin occasionally has his bright monts.
Casually tossing away the cigarette butt, Song Guanchao left the police station.
Returning to the City Committee, he directly headed to Wu Qiangwei's office to report to her.
Upon learning of Qin Yuejin's surrender, Wu Qiangwei gently exhaled in relief.
"Have you told Secretary Qu?"
"Not yet." Leaning on the armrest, Song Guanchao stood up and said, "I'll go tell him now."
He arrived at Qu Xiangru's office, Jiang Yiren said, "Looking for Secretary Qu?"
"Yes, I'll go in myself."
"Wait a mont."
"What's up?"
"Are you free tonight?"
"Why?"
"I'd like to invite you for dinner." Her eyes shifted, not eting his gaze, her tone slightly unnatural.
Song Guanchao thought she might be interested in him: "We'll see, I can't be sure right now."
He pushed open the door, entered the office, and closed the door behind him.
Qu Xiangru put down the docunts in his hand and looked up at him.
"One good news, one bad news."
Song Guanchao intentionally teased, "Which one do you want to hear first?"
Qu Xiangru expressionlessly said, "Childish."
Song Guanchao's old face blushed, unable to help but wonder, is this really childish?
Clearly, this tactic works with other won, so why does it seem childish with her?
"Qin Yuejin turned himself in."
"Anything else?" Qu Xiangru remained calm, showing no excitent at all.
This made Song Guanchao feel a bit defeated.
He had been trying to make her relax a bit, to be a bit happier, but it seed impossible.
"Are you free this weekend?"
"Are you bored?"
"..." Song Guanchao's mouth twitched, just about to speak, when Qu Xiangru asked, "When is the auction for those two plots in Tongchi District?"
"The weekend."
"There's a land auction this weekend, and you still think about going out to play?"
"I..."
"You're the District Chief of Tongchi now, there's a lot of big and small matters, selling land is just one of them. Have you researched the companies in the area? Do you regularly review departntal work reports? Have you visited the District Committee? Have you reviewed the district governnt's investnt reports?"
A series of questions left Song Guanchao sowhat overwheld.
"Being a District Chief isn't easy."
"Sitting in this position, there will certainly be people dissatisfied, as many are eyeing it."
"You need to quickly figure out who is eyeing your position, don't give your enemies an opportunity."
Qu Xiangru picked up his files again, not lifting his head: "You can leave now."
Song Guanchao's eyes seed a bit dazed, did I just co to deliver good news, only to be inexplicably lectured?
The key point was, he couldn't argue back, because what Qu Xiangru said was all reasonable.
However, though it was a lecture, Song Guanchao sensed that she was actually concerned about him, giving him reminders.
Like she said, it's his first ti as a District Chief, he needs soone to teach him how a District Chief should act and what to focus on.
"Secretary Qu is right."
Song Guanchao said seriously: "It's my first ti as a District Chief, there's a lot I don't know, I still need Secretary Qu's guidance."
"If Secretary Qu is free tonight, I'd like to treat you to dinner for so in-depth exchange. I hope to learn more stances from you... oh no, I an knowledge."
"..." Qu Xiangru's hand holding the docunt trembled slightly.
She knew Song Guanchao had thick skin, but she didn't expect it to be this thick.
Seeing her act as if she didn't hear, not responding, Song Guanchao wanted to keep talking, but he heard her say: "There's a dinner event tonight, co by later."
Song Guanchao's eyes lit up, heart surging with joy.
"Alright."
