Chapter 597 – Guo Mingfeng changed his statement!

Before noon.

The District Commission for Discipline Inspection staff knocked and entered the Work Party Committee Secretary’s office.

The staff asked politely. “Are you Director Dong? I am from the District Commission for Discipline Inspection. We had received instructions to bring comrade Guo Mingfeng back for investigation about his finances.”

Dong Xuebing nodded. “Do we need to do anything to assist in the investigation?”

“We might need to conduct a follow-up investigation here later.”

“Alright. I will make the necessary arrangements.”

The District Commission for Discipline Inspection staff is following the protocol. They are bringing Guang Ming Subdistrict Office’s staff back, and they need to inform Dong Xuebing.

After they left, Dong Xuebing walked to the window and looked at them, escorting Guo Mingfeng into the car. He narrowed his eyes and felt he had done a good job. His next target is Xue Qingrong and his son. He will not let anyone who had accused and framed him off lightly, even if he is the District’s Organization Department Chief!

Dong Xuebing picked up the phone and called the District Public Security Bureau, Enforcement Unit’s Team Leader.

“Hello, I’m Dong Xuebing. Is there any progress with the investigation?”

“Not yet. We… still can’t gather enough evidence.”

“Xue Xiaoliang’s fabricated injury report is insufficient? He should be confirmed to be not injured by now. It’s been a day.”

“We confirmed it was Second Hospital’s Director Wu who had changed the injury report, and the investigation is passed to the relevant department.”

“Huh? The case had been withdrawn?”

“No. It’s not withdrawn. It is handled to the Health Ministry to investigate.”

Dong Xuebing is no surprise after hanging up. He knows Xue Qingrong will use his network to drag this case and push everything to the suspended Deputy Director Wu. It will be treated as a medical misdiagnosis to lessen his son’s responsibility. If his son can shirk responsibility, he will not be affected. He has been the Organization Department Chief in Nan Shan District for many years and has built a strong network. But Dong Xuebing is not anxious. He had thought carefully before targeting Guo Mingfeng first. This incident is not over, and he is waiting for the show to start.

District Party Committee.

Organization Department Chief’s office.

Xue Qingrong is on the phone with his son. “Where are you?”

“I am at home. Dad, am I fine now?”

“Yes. Just stay at home and don’t go out these few days.”

“I know. But Dong Xuebing……”

“Stay out of this and try to stay low these few days. Do you understand?”

“Yes.” Xue Xiaoliang could not accept this. He has never suffered such a big loss in his life and is thinking of ways to get back at Dong Xuebing.

After hanging up, Xue Qingrong’s eyes turned cold. Although Dong Xuebing had caused a lot of trouble for him, it didn’t affect him. He is the Organization Department, and his son’s incident is considered settled after utilizing his networks. But he is still puzzled why the District Party Secretary, Wang Anshi, had lost his temper and wants to target Guo Mingfeng. Xue Qingrong is in Wang Anshi’s faction, and everyone knows it. If Wang Anshi is going after Guo Mingfeng, he should be informed before the meeting. He did not stop Wang Anshi at the meeting because this was suggested by the latter. He guessed Guo Mingfeng should have offended Wang Anshi in the past.

Xue Qingrong thought for a while and decided to meet Secretary Wang. He wants to know if Secretary Wang had targeted Guo Mingfeng because of him.

District Party Secretary Office.

Xue Qingrong knocked on the door.

“Come in.”

Xue Qingrong entered the office and saw Wang Anshi drinking tea at his desk. “Secretary, have you taken your lunch?”

“I was about to go.” Wang Anshi gestured to Xue Qingrong. He seems to be in a better mood. “Have a seat.” Xue Qingrong felt relieved as he knew Secretary Wang was not angry with him or had punished Guo Mingfeng to give him a warning. “Secretary, Guang Ming Subdistrict Office Guo Mingfeng……”

Suddenly, Wang Anshi’s face changed, and he shouted. “Such black sheep should have been terminated a long time ago!” Xue Qingrong took a deep breath and did not dare to continue. Guo Mingfeng must have offended Secretary Wang deeply. He can tell Secretary Wang might not know about his son’s incident, or he does not know Guo Mingfeng is involved in it. A District Party Secretary is too busy to know about everything in detail. If Wang Anshi knew about the incident and Guo Mingfeng’s role in it, he would speak to Xue Qingrong before the meeting.

Luckily, Secretary Wang is not targeting me.

Xue Qingrong didn’t answer, but he was not worried as it didn’t concern him.

Many people within the District also don’t know why the District Party Secretary had gotten angry with a Subdistrict Office’s Deputy Director.

How did Guo Mingfeng offend Secretary Wang?

It seems Secretary Wang has a deep grudge against Guo Mingfeng.

Afternoon.

Nan Shan District Commission for Discipline Inspection.

After Guo Mingfeng was brought here, he was interrogated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection staff.

Guo Mingfeng’s lips are tight and only say the things he can say. But he is not as calm as he looks. He is panicking as he knows the Commission for Discipline Inspection staff should search his apartment and check his account. He had not received large bribes, but he had previously received small amounts from his subordinates as ‘festive gifts.’ If the Commission for Discipline Inspection wants to bring him down, they will soon find out about these small gifts.

Half an hour….

One hour….

Two hours….

The Commission for Discipline Inspection had collected enough evidence against Guo Mingfeng. These are small issues, but they are enough to remove him from his position.

Guo Mingfeng gave up explaining himself in front of evidence and started answering the questions.

He knows he is finished. He can no longer make a comeback.

Guo Mingfeng’s heart had turned cold. He would never be removed from his position with these ‘small issues’ if the District Party Secretary did not target him.

Wang Anshi…… Wang Anshi……

Guo Mingfeng knows it. Everyone suspected he had offended the District Party Secretary, but he knows he had never offended him in anyways. He had always been careful with his words when he was outside, and how could he offend Wang Anshi? The only reason he can think of is the false statement. Secretary Wang’s sudden anger must be related to this case. He is in this situation because of his false statement! He is furious!

Guo Mingfeng is not angry with Dong Xuebing. He is angry with Xue Qingrong and Xue Xiaoliang!

Did Guo Mingfeng give the false statement to the Police willingly? He knows this is against the law. If Xue Qingrong had not called him, he would never testify for Xue Xiaoliang. He is in his forties and was almost knockdown by Xue Xiaoliang. He also beat him up, and the bruises on his face are not healed. How can he forget this incident?

Guo Mingfeng will never risk offending Dong Xuebing if Xue Qingrong is not the District Organization Department Chief. But what happens now? Your son had hit me, and I swallowed my pride and followed your orders to give a false statement to help him. Now, you and your son are out of trouble, and I had offended Secretary Wang because of this false statement. I had helped your son, but the ones investigating me are from your faction!

You bastard!

F*CK you!

This is burning the bridge after you crossed it!

Guo Mingfeng could not hold back his anger. He had forgone his pride and testified for the one who hit him. not only did he not benefit from it, Xue Qingrong still stabbed him.

Since this is how you repay me, don’t blame me!

Guo Mingfeng has nothing to lose now. He had lost his position and could no longer remain in the Government Service. What else is there to worry about? If he didn’t do anything as revenge, he would feel like a coward for the rest of his life!

“I have something to add.” Guo Mingfeng said.

The Commission for Discipline Inspection staff looks at him. “What is it?”

Another staff held up his pen and was prepared to record what Guo Mingfeng was about to say.

Guo Mingfeng clenched his teeth. “I had given a false statement for the assault incident along Guang Ming Street and accused our Subdistrict Office Director of being the attacker. It was the Organization Department Chief Xue Qingrong’s son who had almost knocked into me with his car, and he attacked me with a baton. Director Dong was driving past and stopped to help me. It was not Director Dong who attacked Xue Xiaoliang.”

Not many people in the District had heard about this incident. They become tense when they hear Xue Qingrong is involved. “You had given a false statement?!” Guo Mingfeng nodded. “Yes. Chief Xue had called me and threatened me to testify for his son. He wants me to tell the Police that his son had not attacked anyone.” The Commission for Discipline Inspection staff looked at each other, and their faces changed. The Organization Department Chief had conspired to frame a government servant!

This is no longer a small incident!
