This "bastard" insult almost pointed directly at their noses.
Yet the two couldn’t rebuke it openly.
Secretary Wang was sweating coldly behind his back, "How is this even my issue!"
If you want to trouble Secretary Lu and Mayor Zheng, don’t drag into it.
The journalists present realized there might be a big story here.
But they dared not shoot randomly.
Minister Zhou felt it strange—knowing Song Guanchao, who always seed impulsive on the surface, he was actually very calm when it ca to action.
However, currently, it was as if the switch of calmness had been removed, displaying so reckless madness that wanted to rip all pretenses apart.
Jiang Yuan also felt it, but fortunately, it didn’t involve him.
"Secretary Song, I must admit my mistake to you."
Secretary Lu said earnestly, his face filled with guilt, "Although it was Mayor Zheng who suggested that Officer Liang carry a gun, the order was issued by ."
Mayor Zheng’s face twitched, "Dammit, why do you have to drag into everything!"
Shit!
"It was my wrong order that led to Officer Liang being injured. For this matter, I take full responsibility."
"Secretary Song, I apologize to you."
Secretary Lu took two steps back, bowed ninety degrees to Song Guanchao, expressing his apology.
Seeing this scene, all officials and dia present widened their eyes.
So were amazed, others felt a chill.
Experience trumps all.
Secretary Lu took a step back to advance, actively admitting his mistake, bowing and apologizing to a re secretary.
Once word gets out, everyone will see this as a good story and praise the City Secretary for being reflective and devoid of a leadership ego.
As for Song Guanchao, he would be portrayed in hearsay as an impulsive secretary captured by emotion, lacking rationality and a sense of hierarchy.
Wu Qiangwei wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
She thought Song Guanchao was too impulsive.
Such matters shouldn’t be brought up openly.
He might be capable, but against Secretary Lu, he clearly lacked the other’s array of tactics.
However, Song Guanchao showed no reaction. He asked, "It was Mayor Zheng’s suggestion, and Secretary Lu decided?"
"Yes."
"Secretary Wang, did you hear that?"
"Huh?" Secretary Wang thought, why am I being dragged into this again?
"I heard it," Secretary Wang said. "Secretary Lu has recognized his fault."
"Just recognizing the fault, does that an it can be overlooked?"
Song Guanchao retorted, "Command was in my hands! Tonight, it was who shot and decisively killed Lu Xiaotian in ti!"
"If I were a second late, Officer Liang wouldn’t be in the ergency room but in the mortuary!"
"Use the trustworthy, do not mistrust the hired!"
"Since the command was given to , and I took up this command, then no matter what happens, the responsibility is mine!"
"You did not inform beforehand and secretly issued a contrary order under my explicit instruction not to carry guns, Secretary Lu."
"Secretary Lu, what were you trying to do?"
"Trying to fra ? Wanting Lu Xiaotian to kill Officer Liang so that I would carry the bla, the punishnts, and the imprisonnt?"
"Now that it’s happened, you bow and apologize and just want to gloss over it?"
"Secretary Lu, what ruthless tactics you have!"
Song Guanchao scoffed coldly, making everyone present shiver.
He said Secretary Lu was ruthless, but in everyone’s eyes, his sharp, knife-like criticisms were dozens of tis more ruthless than Secretary Lu’s.
Directly hitting the sore spot, targeting the weaknesses.
"In front of everyone, you bow and perform, trying to pin a hat on for disrespecting the superiors, haha, Secretary Lu, you think too highly."
"Secretary Wang, no need to record this, I will report these matters directly to the Provincial Disciplinary Inspection Committee."
"This matter will not end with a simple apology from you, Secretary Lu."
"Besides, the military recomnded , you utilized , and I represent the military. When I’m in command, you don’t report directly to but instead issue orders privately. I will report all this to the military."
"Secretary Lu, you don’t need to give any explanations or apologies next. A departnt leader will speak to you. You are eloquent; I hope you can explain things clearly to them."
Not giving Lu Zhizhong any chance to speak or defend himself, Song Guanchao dropped these words and turned to Liang Jianfeng: "Director Liang, which military leader recomnded ?"
Liang Jianfeng said, "Secretary Shen."
"Secretary Shen Conglin?"
"Yes."
"Good, I will contact Secretary Shen now."
Song Guanchao pulled out his phone and, in front of everyone, found Shen Conglin’s number and dialed.
Seeing him do this, everyone felt a sinking feeling, followed by a shock.
He actually had the personal phone number of No.1 military region leader!
What exactly was his role during his ti in the army?
Secretary Lu finally got a bit panicked; he wasn’t afraid of Song Guanchao shouting or cursing at him, even hitting him didn’t matter.
As long as he did these things, it ant he was flustered.
Once he was flustered, the advantage was in his own hands.
But he wasn’t, he was calm.
Moreover, he escalated the matter!
Inside the system, the most feared thing is escalating issues.
So matters don’t weigh much if not evaluated but once they are, they can’t be stopped even by a thousand pounds.
He hurried forward and grabbed Song Guanchao’s arm: "Xiao Song, I can understand your emotions, this is a matter of the city, let’s not trouble the military..."
"Emotions?" Song Guanchao said, "Secretary Lu actually thinks I have emotions? I don’t have emotions; I just feel that today’s incident has exposed so issues within our city! I hope the leaders will thoroughly investigate procedural issues! Secretary Lu, as a leader, you should be aware of the severity of violating procedures within the organization."
"If it were any other ti, it might be let go, but today’s incident, because of your violation of procedures, almost led to the innocent sacrifice of an outstanding criminal police officer."
"As a leader, instead of setting an example, you knowingly broke the law. I am just a little secretary, I can’t do anything, so I can only seek those who can solve this issue."
He pried Lu Zhizhong’s hand off.
At that mont, the call connected.
"Guan Chao, has the situation been handled?" The calm voice of Chen Conglin ca through.
"Secretary Shen, I need to report to you."
Song Guanchao spoke sternly, and formally, "The ard criminal Lu Xiaotian has been killed by , using a 12.7mm caliber bullet."
"A clean shot, good job."
"Secretary Shen, during the execution of my orders, Lingjiang City handed full command over to . While luring the criminal to reveal himself, I instructed police officer Liang Jiajia not to carry a pistol, to avoid provoking the criminal."
"But Mayor Zheng Bihui suggested that Liang Jiajia carry a pistol, and this was approved by City Secretary Lu Zhizhong."
"They, without communicating with , unilaterally instructed Officer Liang Jiajia to carry a pistol, which was discovered by the criminal, causing the criminal to beco agitated and shoot and injure Liang Jiajia."
"Comrade Liang Jiajia is currently in critical condition, undergoing ergency treatnt at the hospital."
"This was a preventable man-made disaster, but due to the unwarranted interference by Comrade Lu Zhizhong and Zheng Bihui, this disaster occurred."
"Secretary Shen, I request that the military suggest to the province to initiate a political review process, and subject Comrade Zheng Bihui and Lu Zhizhong to political review!"
Hearing the words "political review," everyone present trembled in their hearts.
Zheng Bihui’s eyes flickered with panic and anger.
Even the normally calm and composed Secretary Lu could no longer maintain his composure.
This Song Guanchao was not just tearing off the mask, he was trying to completely destroy him!
