In a small mountain village, there are two pairs of men and women standing in front of a solitary grave. One of them is about the same age. The man is handsome and the woman is pretty. They look very close. The other pair is quite different in age. The man wears a pair of thick glasses and is not tall. Gao, just stood quietly and watched.
"Guiping, those bad guys who harmed you finally got the punishment they deserve."
A woman in plain clothes was muttering in a low voice while burning the newspapers she had collected.
After burning what needed to be burned, the woman stood up and bowed deeply to the young man and woman.
"Thank you, thank you."
Seeing this, Wu Ai quickly pulled up the woman who was bowing: "Sister Jing, you don't have to do this. This is what we should do."
At this moment, the four people standing in front of the grave are Li Jie, Wu Aike, Li Jing and her 'suitor' Zhang Chao, a professor at the Department of Political Science and Law of Jianghua University.
Li Jing smiled and shook her head: "There is nothing that should or should not be done. If it weren't for you, Guiping doesn't know when it would be over."
Li Jie stood silently. Li Jing was right. Whether it was the TV series or the original novel, although the people who framed Hou Guiping were punished as they deserved, there was no mention of the Hou Guiping case at all. and.
Compared with the TV series, the ending in the TV series is darker. Not only did Hou Guiping's case go unsolved, but Jiang Yang himself did not get the justice he deserved.
But now, the ending is undoubtedly much, much better.
Last month, officials officially issued a notice to clear Hou Guiping's name. His family no longer has to live in the village with the name of a QJ prisoner's family.
Today is Li Jie's first and most likely last time to come to Hou Guiping's hometown. He and Wu Aike have been busy investigating cases some time ago, so he and Wu Aike have been unavailable.
It wasn't until the case was finished a few days ago that the two of them had a vacation.
Then, they made an appointment with Li Jing to come to the small mountain village to pay homage to Hou Guiping, and at the same time, they told the good news to Hou Guiping under Jiuquan.
In fact, Li Jing had wanted to come for a long time, but she had postponed it until today because she had been waiting for Li Jie and his wife to take a vacation.
After paying homage to Guiping, the group of people walked along the country road toward the outside of the village. When they arrived at the entrance of the village, when they were leaving, Li Jie called out and Li Jing asked her alone.
"Why don't you introduce the person next to you?"
Li Jing glanced at Zhang Chao subconsciously and then smiled casually.
"He used to be my and Hou Guiping's teacher, and now he is my boyfriend."
Although Li Jing spoke in a low voice, several people stood not far away. When Zhang Chao heard this, he couldn't help but reveal an awkward smile on his face. In the eyes of others, he was indeed not very authentic and violated his image of being a teacher.
However, Zhang Chao has decided to resign as a professor and plans to open a law firm. Without his status as a teacher, no one else can gossip when he is with Li Jing.
"I wish you happiness."
Li Jie smiled and nodded. In fact, he knew Zhang Chao, and Zhang Chao also knew him. However, today's occasion was special, and the other party might not be too embarrassed to say hello to him.
From the beginning to the end, Zhang Chao acted as if the two of them didn't know each other, as if he had forgotten that he once had such a student.
Li Jie is well versed in human nature, and of course he knows what the other person is thinking, so he simply pretends not to be familiar with it.
After saying goodbye, the two parties parted ways at the entrance of the village.
On the way back, Wu Aike couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked.
"Husband, that person just now was your former teacher?"
Li Jie said without covering up: "Yes, his name is Zhang Chao. He is a professor in the Department of Political Science and Law. He is quite famous in our school."
"Then why did you act like you didn't know each other before?"
"Idiot." Li Jie smiled, scratched her palm, and explained: "The teacher and the student are together, and the female student's dead ex-boyfriend was also his student. It sounds so embarrassing."
Wu Aike chuckled: "When you say that, it seems to be true."
Buzz!
Buzz!
At this moment, Wu Aike's cell phone suddenly rang. The caller was her mother, asking when she and Li Jie would get home.
In an era without navigation, it was difficult for people who were not familiar with the road conditions to calculate the time clearly. Wu Aike had to look at Li Jie who was driving as if asking for help.
"My mom asked us how long it would take?"
Li Jie roughly estimated the remaining distance in his mind and replied.
"More than three hours, probably. I'll definitely have time to go back for dinner."
"Mom, we estimate we'll be home at five or six. I'll call you for the specific time."
After hanging up the phone, Wu Aike seemed to have forgotten the previous topic and turned to another matter.
"Aren't you going back to Pingkang County tomorrow? I also want to meet my little sister."
"OK."
Li Jie secretly smiled in his heart. This girl was quite strict. She was probably afraid that he would go somewhere he shouldn't go.
While working in the Anti-Corruption Bureau, Wu Aike came into contact with a large number of files on corrupt officials, which recorded various corruption methods. The more she read, the more she began to think about this in her mind.
In particular, she knew that Li Jie went to Pingkang County this time to meet old friends, and drinking would be inevitable. Although she believed that Li Jie would not do anything bad, she still wanted to go with him.
The next day.
Laoyu hotpot restaurant.
In the same private room, Li Jie, Zhu Wei, and Chen Mingzhang met again. The difference from last time was that this time Li Jie had a little tail behind him.
As a wealthy man, Maotai shareholder, and host, Chen Mingzhang arrived relatively early. When he saw Li Jie and Wu Aike entering, he immediately stood up to greet them.
"Welcome Prosecutor Jiang to come and provide guidance!"
"Is this your lover?"
Wu Aike smiled sweetly: "Hello, Teacher Chen, I am Wu Aike."
Chen Mingzhang laughed and said sincerely: "They are indeed a golden couple. Xiao Jiang, you have found a good wife!"
Li Jie looked around and found that Chen Mingzhang was the only one in the private room.
“Where’s Zhu Wei?”
Chen Mingzhang heard this and explained: "After Li Jianguo was dismissed, Lao Zhu returned to the position of captain. Recently, he has a lot of things on his hands and is on his way here."
"I must let him punish himself with three cups later."
"That's necessary. Punishment, must be punished!"
After chatting with Zhu Wei, Li Jie glanced at Chen Mingzhang: "Old Chen, are you ready?"
When he got down to business, Chen Mingzhang immediately put away the smile on his face and nodded seriously. After several months of hard work, he finally managed to understand the craft formula that Li Jie had given him before.
Although he has not yet fully understood it, he thinks he has reached the limit. If he continues to study it, he is afraid that the effect will not be too great. After all, he is not a professional scientific researcher.
"I plan to take a leave of absence without pay in the second half of the year."
Wu Aike couldn't help but feel confused when he heard the words. What were these two people talking about?
What to prepare for?
What else is there about furlough?
