Chapter 1223 Da Bao never lets things go unresolved.
"Starting in 1950, Wang Laoshuan's tofu shop was confiscated, his land was gone, and his donkey was taken over by the state, leaving his family destitute. But he still wore the label of his class background."
The start of the Four Cleanups Movement also marked the beginning of Wang Laoshuan's nightmare. His family of four was dragged out for criticism and struggle sessions day and night. To make matters worse, his daughter fell onto the threshing ground at night and was gang-raped by several villagers.
His son had his leg broken during a public denunciation session. With nowhere else to turn for help, the Wang family had no choice but to commit suicide.
It's strange, really. When Wang Laoshuan was alive, not a single relative lent a helping hand during the criticism and struggle sessions. Now that he's dead, all his distant relatives have jumped out, claiming that Wang Laoshuan was wronged and that someone must resolve the issue, handle the matter, and provide compensation.
Da Bao's face grew redder and redder as he listened, and by the end, he couldn't help but slam his hand on the table and stand up.
"What a bunch of bastards! What was the outcome of Nanhe Province's handling of this?"
Jin Hai hesitated for a moment, his expression turning somewhat grim.
"Nanhe Province has not issued any results; they intend to let it go."
"Let it go unresolved?"
Da Bao sneered; in his dictionary, there was no such thing as letting things go unresolved.
……
The train slowly pulled into Xingzhou, the capital of Henan Province, and came to a smooth stop on the platform. A dozen or so leading cadres in woolen overcoats were waiting there.
The train stopped, and the carriage doors were all tightly closed. The passengers inside were jumping around anxiously, but the train staff wouldn't let them get off.
Some well-informed passengers knew that there must be important people on this train, and the doors would not open until the important people had left.
The door to the sleeper carriage opened, and Jin Hai stepped off first, followed by several comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission. It turned out that the comrades from the Ministry of Public Security had been transferred back, and two female comrades had been sent instead, one of whom was Shi Yun, a female police officer from Guangzhou.
She was selected to study at the ministry for six months. The ministry is short-staffed, so they sent her and another female police officer, Kuang Yun, to Da Bao. They arrived in Xingzhou from Beijing a day earlier than Da Bao and his team.
Kuang Yun was a 21-year-old girl who had always heard of Da Bao's name in the department but had never met him. She stood next to Shi Yun, tugged at Shi Yun's sleeve, and whispered.
"Sister Shi, I heard that you and Team Leader Qin have worked on cases together. What kind of person is he?"
Shi Yun also liked this little girl quite a bit, so he patted her hand and said.
"Team Leader Qin is a very capable person, no, he is the most capable person I have ever met. In my impression, he seems to be omnipotent. You will see in a moment."
Kuang Yun looked around at the people coming down with curiosity. Jin Hai first shook hands with the leaders from Nanhe Province who came to pick up Da Bao. The highest-ranking person among them was Li Jiachen, the second-in-command of the provincial government. He said to Jin Hai with trepidation.
"Comrade Jin Hai, why isn't the commander getting out of the car yet?"
Jin Hai said in a low voice.
"The commander has just received a telegram from the central command and should be replying."
This time, Da Bao didn't ask for anyone else, but only asked for a telephone operator from Fujian, who carried a state-of-the-art radio and could contact the central command at any time.
Da Bao looked at the telegram with a complicated expression. The central government had sent a working group for this incident, headed by Ren Guoxing, the deputy secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission. Now they've sent him as well. Who will listen to whom?
The central command clearly instructed that the working groups be merged into one, with Ren Guoxing as the leader and Da Bao as the deputy leader.
Despite being extremely unwilling, Da Bao still had the operator call back to the central command center and accepted the order.
He put on his overcoat and slowly stepped off the train. Li Jiachen and the others hurriedly stepped forward to shake his hand. Although they were all local comrades, they had a natural awe for these working groups from the capital, who were also imperial envoys.
"Hello, Deputy Team Leader Qin, I am Li Jiachen. Secretary Duan asked me to entertain you."
Dabao waved his hand.
"No need, someone's here to pick me up."
As soon as he finished speaking, three jeeps with military license plates slowly drove up. After the jeeps stopped, two middle-aged soldiers jumped out. When they saw Da Bao, they quickly ran over, stood at attention, and saluted.
"Commander, Li Wenhe, 389th Regiment, Nanhe Military Region, stationed in Xingzhou,"
"Qin Yushan!"
"Reporting to you!"
"Sir, in accordance with the orders of the military region leadership, the entire military region guesthouse has been vacated, and a platoon from the guard company has moved in to protect the safety of all members of the work group. The guesthouse canteen will have two cooking squads taking turns to cook for the work group, providing meals 24 hours a day."
Da Bao nodded in satisfaction. He waved to Shi Yun and the other man. Shi Yun smiled and quickly walked up to Da Bao, stood at attention, and saluted.
"Hello, Chief!"
Kuang Yun also rushed over, stood at attention, and saluted.
Da Bao extended his right hand and shook hands with Shi Yun.
"Big sister, we meet again,"
Shi Yun nodded excitedly.
Da Bao turned to Jin Hai and the working group members and said.
"This is Sister Shi Yun, the head of the Third Section of the Lingnan Yangcheng Public Security Bureau, the first female police officer in the Republic, and she was in charge of solving the Mei Yi spy case."
Jin Hai and the others clapped and stepped forward to shake hands with Shi Yun and Kuang Yun.
Several comrades from the Nanhe Provincial Party Committee standing nearby couldn't help but exchange bewildered glances. Judging from the attitude of the working group, they had a lot of opinions about Nanhe.
Dabao waved his hands.
“Get on the bus. If we don’t leave, the passengers won’t let us off. I don’t want them to call us bureaucratic.”
Da Bao and Jin Hai got into the jeep from the military region first. When Li Jiachen saw this, he couldn't help but sigh and could only get into the sedan and follow the jeep to the military region's guesthouse.
When they arrived at the military district guesthouse, the canteen had already prepared the dishes and steamed buns. As soon as Da Bao and his group arrived, they were invited into the canteen. After they sat down, Da Bao spoke to Li Jiachen.
"Where do Deputy Secretary Ren and the others live?"
Li Jiachen quickly replied.
"Deputy Secretary Ren and the other eight people are all staying at the provincial guesthouse."
Da Bao frowned slightly.
"So, how far along is their work?"
Li Jiachen shook his head.
"I'm not entirely sure. They just called some comrades from the Bianliang County Committee to find out what was going on, and that's all they did."
Da Bao and Jin Hai were stunned. How could this be? If something had happened down below, they should be going to talk to the people and find out what had happened.
When I spoke with the comrades from the county committee to understand the situation, the representative implied that no one had been sent down to obtain firsthand information.
After the meal, Da Bao whispered to Jin Hai.
"I'm going to the provincial guesthouse to meet with Deputy Secretary Ren. You should quickly hold a meeting with the working group members to brief them on the situation and then ask them to offer suggestions and brainstorm ideas."
