Ever since Liu Ming arrived, Wang Lin felt embarrassed. According to the rank, he is already the third rank, and Liu Ming is one level lower than him.
Don't look at it as just one level. Let's not talk about the first level of officialdom, which is crushing people to death. Even at this level, many people will not be able to get up to it until they die.
The embarrassing thing is that Liu Ming is from Zhengjing. He represents the majesty of the royal family. He is neither giving orders nor obeying others. so. Except for the reception on the first day, he could hide as much as he could.
But now, he can't hide anymore. Knowing that Chen Mu was related to Liu Ming, he ran into the crime squad office out of breath and said straight to the point:
"That boy Chen Mun scolded Zhou Cheng in front of everyone and threatened to arrest him and put him in jail. He asked me to get some evidence.
Liu Chu, that's your nephew, think of a way quickly, I can't bear it anymore. "
"Didn't this kid go home?"
Liu Ming was pasting the clues brought by Chen Mu onto the blackboard to sort them out. He was startled when he heard Wang Lin's words. He hurriedly turned around and put down the document, frowning and looking at the person coming as if he was suspicious.
"That's really unlucky. I got caught red-handed."
"Please tell me what the specific situation is, Director Wang."
Wang Lin did not hide anything, and objectively described in detail how Chen Mu entered the first department and how he came into conflict with Yang Daihua.
After Liu Ming listened carefully, he walked and pondered, and suddenly thought: "So, Yang Cheng's goal is to Luo Luo that girl?"
Wang Lin's expression was slightly condensed. He took a sugar orange from the table and lowered his head to peel it to cover up his heavy heart. As early as when Li Luo asked him for help, he felt that there was an undercurrent behind the matter, and he guessed that someone was targeting Chen Jiatang.
However, things turned around several times, and the target changed from Chen Mu to Li Luo. Yang Daihua is menacing and merciless. Anyone with any political sensitivity knows that there is definitely someone behind the scenes.
It's a pity that whether it is Li Luo or Chen Mu, if they can be targeted in this way, the enemy's target is definitely not them. The involvement behind it is beyond Wang Lin's control. He would take sides if he was infected, but he did not have the courage to make a desperate move until the situation became clear.
Liu Ming thinks about more problems than Wang Lin. He is Chen Mu's uncle. He does not have the worry of taking sides, only the worry of having to face it. For example, now, no matter what, you have to save your nephew first.
"First bow your head and see if you can beg for forgiveness."
"The evidence?"
"Muzi is young and ignorant, and he slandered others with empty words."
Not to mention that there is no evidence, even if there is, Liu Ming will not present it so hastily. His main purpose in coming to Mengdu was to investigate the cause of Wu Peng's death, execute the murderer and let his senior brother rest in peace.
If there is a grudge against the No. 3 figure in the state capital now, it will inevitably lead to more conflicts. Even if the other party is deliberately targeting him, he can only try his best to calm the situation.
Half a body faster than Wang Lin, Liu Ming entered the first department door first. Seeing the middle-aged man sitting in the section chief's office, he immediately quickened his pace, put on a formulaic smile he had learned through years of hard work, and greeted him warmly, wanting to shake his hand.
"I don't know if Yang Cheng's visit will be welcomed at a distance, or not welcomed at a distance."
Liu Ming did not declare his family background. He had already checked Li Luo's background and knew that since the other party could target the daughter of the chief minister, he would not give his master face:
"I heard that some ignorant newcomers on our side bumped into you, and I just learned about your arrival.
I have understood the general situation and the responsibility for this matter lies with me. If the child is ignorant and the leader is dissatisfied, even if he scolds me, I will definitely punish him severely. "
Liu Ming put his position at the lowest position. This was not his character, but it was not the first time that he had done this for Chen Mu, so he was prepared to be blamed. Even though he was from the Purge Bureau, he has always had an image of being strict with himself and demanding others, but after all, he is a member of the system and must abide by the unspoken rules.
However, Yang Daihua's next attitude surprised him, as well as Wang Lin, who had just entered.
Yang Daihua and Chen Mu were sitting opposite each other, and Liu Ming could only see the profiles of their faces when he approached. After hearing the apology, Yang Daihua stood up casually, held hands with Liu Ming, and looked at Liu Ming with an unexpectedly kind smile.
"Are you Liu Ming, Director Liu? Haha, I heard that a cold-faced Qingtian has come to Zhengjing. He is more famous than meeting him. I think Director Liu is quite humane."
Wang Lin was stunned and suspected that he was dreaming. He followed fearfully, but this is the result? Where has the prestige and dignity of being a second-grade official gone?
Yang Daihua's attitude was so weird that Liu Ming was stunned. He only came back to his senses with his strong psychological endurance and strong reaction ability.
"Yang Cheng, Chen Mu..."
"I know what you're going to say. It's okay. It's okay. It's a small misunderstanding. Just let it go. But I think this young man is very good and has a bright future."
Liu Ming thanked Chen Mu repeatedly and thanked Yang Daihua for his kind words. It was a faux friendly conversation, with both sides showing off. In the end, it was Yang Daihua who left because of important matters, and Wang Lin and Wang Lin reluctantly sent each other off to the car.
Chen Mu originally wanted to investigate the source of the package because it contained evidence of Huang Xuan's death. After learning that it was the State Assistant Secretary who had done it, and accidentally discovering evidence implicating Yang Daihua and others, he decided to destroy it.
Unexpectedly, Yang Daihua accidentally bumped into him and aggressively tried to question Li Luo, forcing him to change his mind.
Now seeking skin from a tiger is the best outcome. If the outcome is as imagined, he will be the biggest winner.
Chen Mu no longer cares about the secrets in Wang Qing's mouth and the clues in Han Zhen's body. According to the agreement, Yang Daihua will kill the murderers of Wu Peng on his behalf.
Taking advantage of the gap between Liu Ming and Yang Daihua when they were sending Yang Daihua out, Chen Mu, who didn't want to be questioned, slipped out of the backyard door, got in the car, and then sent Liu Ming a message to go home, and then turned off his cell phone.
"Do you think Yang Daihua will abide by the agreement?"
Before starting the car, Chen Mu was shocked by the sound above his head. He subconsciously looked up and saw a communicator that had appeared at some point.
"Who are you?"
"Brother Chen Mu, you haven't seen me for a few days and you have forgotten about me?"
The voice in the communicator seemed familiar, and the tone felt familiar, but Chen Mu couldn't remember who it was. The only thing he could be sure of was that the other party must know Yang Daihua, otherwise the first thing he would say would not be about him.
Moreover, hearing this sarcasm, it seemed that the other party and Yang Daihua were at odds.
After being unable to guess the other party's identity for a long time, Chen Mu stopped worrying and said straight to the point: "It's not easy to install the communicator in my car, is it? Is it just to reminisce about old times?"
"Haha, say hello. To be honest, we have been paying attention to you for a long time. You have a clean family background and outstanding talents. It is a rare opportunity in a hundred years to achieve harmony and coexistence. We need fresh blood like you to join us."
"Sorry, not interested."
"Don't be too busy refusing. Let me introduce you to the situation of our organization. As a law enforcement officer of the Unnatural Bureau, you should be very clear that countless people with evil intentions persecute the happiness and safety of ordinary people every day.
In the same way, countries in this world also suffer from threats from dreams just like ordinary people. Every country also has organizations to protect its own people and homeland security. "
Chen Mu sneered: "Isn't the Unnatural Bureau just such an organization?"
"No, compared to the real threat to the empire, the trafficking of Dreamland people is completely insignificant. Let me give you an example. Before March, during the civil war in Syria, tens of thousands of people were slaughtered, and millions of people were killed. Displaced. A peaceful country turned into a hell on earth overnight. Do you know the inside story?"
Chen Mu remained silent. He paid no attention to this matter. He only learned from the news network that it was a long-planned coup.
"This is no secret among organizations like ours. The cause of the civil strife in Syria is that the head of their country's military is a dream figure who has been lurking for many years."
"So what? What does it have to do with me? Since we have come to the real world, we are real people. There are countless characters from dreams in the world. What can an accident mean?"
"What if I told you that the other party planned it before entering the real world?"
Chen Mu was shocked. If this was true, it would be really frightening. Then, what the mysterious man said next was even more frightening.
"Within the scope of our empire, there are many secret organizations trying to control our empire. Through dreams, they control one official after another of the empire, lurking in secret and waiting for time, and may give us a devastating blow at any time."
Chen Mu looked solemn. He thought of Liu Ziye, who must be the organization behind it as the mysterious man said.
"I'm not boasting. If you join us, you will enjoy unimaginable permissions and honors. But not just anyone can join us. A clean family background is the foundation, and outstanding ability is the foundation.
Let me tell you another secret. Li Yunhao, the current governor of Mengdu, has long been infiltrated by the dream organization. A dreamer named Liu Ziye used his body to come to the real world. "
"Liu Ziye?"
"Yes, this matter is related to the safety of the most prosperous state in the empire, and I am here for him."
Chen Mu was horrified, never expecting such a secret.
"I'm just a college student who hasn't graduated yet. Why are you telling me this?"
"Because of your parents, they were once a member of us. Because of you, we need you to join. It's just right to graduate soon."
Chen Mu was dubious. Although the other party did not reveal his identity, his tone and attitude were very convincing.
"Aren't you afraid that I will spread such an important secret?"
"You won't. Next, we will give you a test. You need to use your wisdom and energy to get rid of Li Yunhao. In this way, you will be an official member of us.
Don't put too much pressure on yourself, just stay normal. When necessary, we will help you through secret channels. For example, that package. "
"Thank you for your kindness, I..."
Tsk!
Chen Mu didn't want to get involved in this, and just when he was about to refuse, a burst of smoke came out of the communication equipment. It was obvious that it was remotely controlled to self-destruct.
Green smoke filled the car, mixed with an unpleasant burnt smell. Chen Mu thought deeply, unable to calm down for a long time. He knew what the other person meant when he mentioned his parents, to make him believe it and to arouse his curiosity.
Unfortunately, he is not interested in his parents' past. Everyone will have their own life, and there is no need to use it to explore the experiences of those who have passed away.
What made him uneasy was the secret the other party said. He has seen Liu Ziye before, he is indeed a terrible enemy. After contacting Yang Daihua about Li Luo, the explanation made sense: Li Yunhao, who was possessed by Liu Ziye, instructed the No. 3 figure in Mengdu to capture Li Luo, thereby dragging Li's mother into the water, then Li's father, and then a storm.
The more Chen Mu thought about it, the more frightened he felt. He didn't even have the heart to think about how Liu Ziye, who had just been killed in a sneak attack by Li's mother, had possessed Li Yunhao for many years.
He only knew that whether it was to complete the mysterious man's test or not, he had to take it seriously. Because he was already involved.
