To be honest, Wang Zhiguo was quite surprised when he received the news about the joint investigation team.
The investigation team was composed of multiple departments, including the Provincial JW, Provincial JCY, and the GA Department, and they had not gone through Jinan City at all. They did not utilize any of the materials he had prepared for a long time. Instead, they went directly to Zhang Shusen's office to announce his suspension from work and informed him of the issues at a designated time and place before taking him away.
Early in the morning, just as work was starting, many people in various departments of the government building saw Zhang Shusen being escorted out by two individuals wearing solemn badges.
Zhang Shusen's face was pale, devoid of his usual vigor and authority within the government building.
The head of the investigation team stayed in Director Wang Zhiguo's office for a long time. Afterward, Wang Jian, the director's office chief, Hao Zhiyong, the captain of the Public Security Brigade, Huang Weixing, the captain of the Criminal Police Team, and Gou Ming, the captain of the Traffic Police Brigade, were summoned to a small conference room. Just as they gathered, a group of individuals wearing solemn badges entered in single file and took these men away as well.
A tense atmosphere filled the government building.
The investigation team also announced a reporting hotline and set up a dedicated mailbox for complaints within the building.
Subsequently, Director Wang Zhiguo presided over a meeting attended by mid-level officials from Annan County Bureau (with several department heads taken away for "assisting in the investigation"). He reported on Zhang Shusen and others being taken by the investigation team while announcing an order from the Provincial Department: to arrest the gang led by Zhang Lingyun and to carry out special public security management work throughout the county!
At this moment, Director Wang truly felt invigorated.
The deputy director of the office was surnamed Qiu and named Qiu Rencai. He had long been suppressed by former director Wang Jian and felt frustrated. Now that Wang Jian had been taken away alongside Zhang Shusen, it was highly likely he would not return.
After the morning meeting concluded, Deputy Director Qiu felt an uncontrollable excitement and exhilaration rising within him. As soon as he returned to work in the afternoon, he knocked on Wang Zhiguo's office door: "Director Wang, I have something to report to you..."
Since the morning meeting ended, Wang Zhiguo had received countless reports from various individuals; if counted seriously, it might surpass all those who had come to report to him over the past year.
Rumors circulated throughout the bureau that Director Wang Zhiguo had accumulated strength over time; when he finally acted, it would be with overwhelming force...
Wang Zhiguo enjoyed this situation immensely.
Qiu Sixi had mentioned Hu Ruoyun to him before; at that time, he hadn’t taken it seriously—just a kid who happened to cross paths with Wang Hongbin. However, given the current circumstances, he could no longer dismiss this child as simple.
Afterward, developments unfolded that exceeded his imagination and understanding.
According to a quiet revelation from a comrade in the department, the number of emails and phone calls reporting Zhang Shusen and Zhang Lingyun has astonished the joint investigation team: "Not only are there numerous reports from the public, but also an endless stream of complaints within the Annan County Bureau system.
The societal issues involve cover-ups and moral decay...
The internal reports include bribery, extortion, and instructions to handle cases based on connections or personal favors... Moreover, his son is implicated in offenses such as assault, blackmail, sexual harassment, and even rape!"
In the end, the comrade remarked, "These two are a pair of bastards."
Meanwhile, under Director Wang's guidance and command, the Annan County Bureau and its various police stations launched a massive campaign against organized crime and corruption. Not only were remnants of gangs like Stick, Fatty, and Black Tower captured one after another, but individuals with a history of misconduct in various towns and villages were also warned or dealt with harshly for illegal activities.
After some time, the public security situation in Annan County presented a favorable scenario of "Clear Rivers and Tranquil Seas."
For those who had previously been close to Zhang Shusen, Wang Zhiguo maintained a perspective that was both transcendent and wise. He believed that as long as one conducted themselves properly in work and life, there was nothing to worry about.
However, he seized this opportunity to remove several heads of township police stations—individuals who had engaged in violations either actively or under Zhang Shusen's indulgence. Investigations confirmed their illegal activities were clear-cut and undeniable; they admitted their wrongdoings and were handed over to relevant departments for processing.
People are inherently bound by their customs; having served in the bureau for nearly two years now, Wang Zhiguo had endured significant trials while sitting in the top position. He never expected that a situation that had troubled him for almost two years would be resolved by a fourteen-year-old child. The child's decisive actions left no room for stalemate or struggle; Zhang Shusen's years of control over the Annan County Bureau vanished in an instant. Those promoted by Zhang Shusen quickly united around their true leader after removing the bad apples.
To be honest, the path of politics is fraught with challenges, but during this period, he felt an unprecedented sense of clarity and smoothness.
He was eager to see what this remarkably talented fourteen-year-old looked like.
After calling Qiu Sixi, Qiu instructed his assistant Xiao Xu to make a special trip to Hu Ruoyun's home. Hu Ruoyun's parents informed him that she had started school as a new freshman at Annan County Eighth High School and was living on campus under closed management.
Well then, it could wait. In such a large bureau facing significant changes, there were still many matters for him to oversee and push forward. Meeting people could be postponed for now.
But as a "common person," Director Wang Zhiguo also took care of some "mundane matters." He arranged for the bureau's publicity officer and Qiu Sixi to visit the homes of Xiong Debiao and Hu Ruoyun. They arrived in a police car, making quite a scene. Although the two main subjects were at school, the relevant personnel had the four parents of the children, who were unaware of the situation, stand in for them to receive the "Bravery Award" issued by the county bureau.
Each parent received a large frame with a certificate, along with a cash prize of 200 yuan.
In the end, Director Qiu Sixi also took enthusiastic photos with the parents of both children.
Coming from a rural background, Qiu Sixi understood that in the countryside, reputation was everything. The presence of someone in uniform coming to present awards might seem insignificant, but it held profound implications for the families' standing in the village.
This was indeed the case.
The neighbor of Hu Ruoyun's family was the Woodzi family, separated by just a wall. With their eldest child about to get married and build a new house, the couple had long taken advantage of Hu Qihua and his wife during their time in the production team. This time, they planned to demolish their old house and lay the foundation without leaving the customary two feet of "drip water" for Hu Qihua's family behind them. This would allow them to expand their own yard by two feet. Such actions would typically be viewed as unreasonable in rural areas and could attract public condemnation. However, the Woodzi couple believed that Hu Qihua wouldn't dare to speak up, dismissing others' opinions as mere noise.
I don't know if this is true in other rural areas, but here it is: whenever someone builds a house, they must leave two feet of space within their own property for their neighbors behind them. This is commonly referred to as "drip water," meaning that any water flowing off their roof still drains through those two feet of land.
Don't ask me why; it's just a tradition passed down through generations.
However, before they could even mark out their foundation, police cars from the local station and county arrived. Led by the Village Chief and Party Secretary, they cheerfully presented awards to Hu Qihua and his wife, with the director even posing for friendly photos with them.
The Woodzi couple felt intimidated.
The Hu family’s child was becoming increasingly capable, and since they were clearly in the wrong, it was better to avoid further trouble.
