Although Beijiang Evening News sent someone to stare at Xiangbei, this is not an open and secret investigation or follow-up investigation. No one would elevate this kind of "stalking" to the level of their jobs. Moreover, the employees in charge of stalking are all reporters who interview and write all day long, and they are already very busy and can't stand the errands of serving others like this. When lunch time, the reporter quickly escaped.

Yu Chongming formulated a plan for three people to take turns on duty. The team leader of Qu Changguo is the general manager, and the other two were selected from the reporters. They are honest and reliable. Each person works half a day and three shifts. The daily duty situation must be reported to Yu Chongming before getting off work that day, so that he can grasp the overall situation. Of course, this duty and work are different. The business must be completed or completed. As for this scrutiny job, don’t choose, this is the trust of the leader!

Qu Changguo was already irritated by such a mess. He finally returned to his unit to take a break, but unexpectedly he was scolded by Ruan Yiyi, a woman who was not forced to do so. This made Qu Changguo very depressed, but he had no way to vent? So many years of experience told him that everything must be tolerated. The more he felt that he could not bear it, the more he had to endure it.

Yu Chongming, the office next door, was also in deep thought. Of course, his contemplation had nothing to do with Qu Changguo and Ruan Yiyi. With his emotional intelligence, he could not realize the dirty things about the two of them having an affair in the office. After all, the two of them did a very good job of keeping secrets because they knew that once this matter was exposed and being fired would be a minor one, it would probably hurt the two families, which was really not worth the loss.

Therefore, Qu Changguo has made the responsibility a man should have: having an affair is OK, but he should be low-key and not hurt each other's families.

What Yu Chongming thought was naturally going north. He followed, investigated, and guided the newspaper's internal public opinion... All plans were being promoted in accordance with Zhao Qingdong's requirements.

Speaking of internal public opinion, he remembered Ruan Yiyi again. Haha, I really have to thank this stupid woman who has no brains. If it weren't for her mouth that didn't hold the door, I, Yu Chongming, wouldn't know how to let the wind out. Now, everyone knows that this is Xiangbei's trouble and has nothing to do with the newspaper. This woman has made such a great contribution to the newspaper, and she is still in the dark.

However, through this incident, Yu Chongming had a new understanding of Zhao Qingdong. This person is really admirable, meticulous and advanced. It is precisely because of the secret meeting of three people last night that things can be carried out step by step in a direction that is beneficial to him. Only Zhao Qingdong, Yu Chongming and Chen Jizhou know all the real internal news. All the rumored news has been processed, and even Chen Lu and Qu Changguo do not understand the inside story. Damn, it is indeed very stingy!

The awakening of the north made Yu Chongming fall into another worry: Will he see people he shouldn't see and say things he shouldn't say? Misfortunes come from the mouth, so don't let him talk nonsense and cause unnecessary trouble to the newspaper.

What should I do? He himself had no idea. No, he had to report this to Zhao Qingdong.

"Awakened? When did it happen?" Zhao Qingdong's first reaction was surprised when he heard the news, "How is others? Is the condition stable?"

"I woke up about half an hour ago. The doctor said that although I was weak, I was not seriously injured at the moment." Yu Chongming could not judge what his reaction meant, so he could only report the information he learned truthfully.

"That's good, as long as people are fine." Zhao Qingdong breathed a sigh of relief. He firmly believed that no matter how troubles arise, no matter how you make a fortune, you can't kill anyone. If you make a fortune, it will be a big deal!

"But I'm worried about whether there will be any other accidents? After all, he is quite special now and many things have not been found out yet." Yu Chongming reminded.

"I understand, is there anyone else who has met him?"

"As far as I know, there is no one else except his wife."

"I know this. If they want to see it, just meet it. After all, he has his personal freedom. We are not policemen, so we can't control it."

"But now that the communication is so high, even if he doesn't meet, he has many ways to contact the outside world."

Zhao Qingdong began to remain silent after hearing this, and his fingers kept knocking on the table.

This is Zhao Qingdong's signature move. Yu Chongming understood at the sight of this posture. His extremely smart head was starting to move again, and he might have some amazing bad idea!

Sure enough, a few minutes later, Zhao Qingdong slapped the table, "Tomorrow morning, you will rush to the hospital and have a good talk with Xiangbei. Remember, be polite first and then soldiers. If Xiangbei follows the rules and understands etiquette, then follow the rules of etiquette. If it doesn't work, tell me immediately, I have other ways."

When Yu Chongming received the order, he felt more at ease as if he had obtained the Shangfang Sword.

Let’s talk about the hospital. Xiangbei finished drinking millet porridge and rested for a while, and his mental state recovered a lot. Now he has no surveillance and scrutiny, and the couple’s conversation is much more casual.

"Husband, what did you give birth to?" Zhou Xuecen thought of what Qu Changguo said, and her heart was full of confusion. She still wondered if these were true. She even felt at a certain moment that who was the man lying on the bed? Why did she become so strange?

"It's a long story." Xiangbei spoke, and his body was weak and weak. "You have seen all the contents of these reports?"

"See it."

Xiangbei stared at Zhou Xuecen: "Wife, do you believe me?"

"Of course I believe you. After seeing the rumors on the Internet, my first reaction was that someone framed you!"

Xiangbei asked how to report to the unit that day, how to see the letters of reporting, and how I reacted when I saw these letters, etc. "On the day I fell asleep, I felt as if I had experienced 8 years. Those things before appeared again like fast forward."

"What's going on with the suspension?"

Xiangbei was stunned. Did she know about this?

Zhou Xuecen was angry because Xiangbei did something illegal and disorderly. Because she understood that as his woman, no matter what he did, she would face it with him without hesitation. However, what Zhou Xuecen couldn't accept was that this man who had lived together for ten years would actually hide it from him.

"Wife, do you know this? Actually, I won't tell you because I'm afraid you'll be worried. I think I can handle it myself..."

"But in fact? All kinds of things were born again and again. If you could tell me at that time, at least I would face them with you and take on them together."

"I...I didn't expect things to come to this point." Hearing the little dissatisfaction in Zhou Xuecen's tone, Xiangbei became excited, and his vocal cords defended with hoarseness, "It may be very troublesome this time. I don't know if I can pass this level."

"Who did it, and why did he do it?"

Xiangbei shook his head, "Although I was sleeping all day long, my brain was thinking about this matter. I still couldn't figure out who did this and what his purpose was."

Zhou Xuecen: "Honey, have you offended someone? This morning, Qu Changguo said the same thing."

Xiangbei: "We went out for interviews all day long, and we encountered all kinds of religions and all kinds of people. Who knows which sentence and what will offend whom?"

"What was the reason for you being suspended last time? I heard Qu Changguo say it was because of a violation of discipline?"

"Last time? I was reported to accept banquets and gifts in the Luohe Village incident. I was also blamed for this. I was careless. I received souvenirs from the project command center, ate and drank wine. As a result, I exposed the matter."

"You, after working for so many years, why are you not so alert? Do you have to know what food should be eaten and what should you be careful about?" Zhou Xuecen rebuked.

"Where are you not wet when you walk by the river? This time I've lost it. All my reputation has been ruined." Xiangbei is always upset when he thinks of this. "It's a coincidence that the whistleblower also reported the problem to the newspaper via email."

"Same as this time?"

"right."

"And, there is something interesting..." Xiangbeidun stopped.

“What is it?”

"The last time I was reported was when I restarted the investigation in Luohe Village..."

"What about this time?"

"That's the same!" Xiangbei simply told the whole story of the whole thing, "Last time, I got a message: Xu Changlin, the village director of Luohe Village, committed suicide in the detention center. Based on the situation I learned before, I felt that the whole thing was full of doubts, so I went to Luohe Village to find out the situation. However, when the interview was about to make a breakthrough, a letter of complaint about me appeared. In desperation, I stopped the investigation. Fortunately, the newspaper opened a message to me and only made a decision to stay and check the job. This time, I also found a missing detail in the Luohe Village incident and planned to go to Luohe Village as soon as possible to find out the situation. But before I could go, something happened again."

"Luohe Village... This time it's much more serious than last time. Do you think the two reports were a coincidence, or did the same group of people do it?"

"This is also my doubt... it was really done by the same group of people? What is his purpose and wants to kill me?"

When Zhou Xuecen heard Xiangbei say this, she tightened her scalp, her body felt like it was electricity, and she had goose bumps all over her body. When the threat was right in front of her, even the strongest person in her heart would feel inexplicable fear.

Zhou Xuecen suddenly felt that there was a pair of eyes always staring at them - anytime, anywhere. She felt that she had been completely exposed to the other party, without any privacy. She could even think of whether someone would keep following her when she was walking on the street, and whether someone would suddenly rush over from behind and stab her body with a knife.

"Husband, call the police."

"Call the police? Why do you tell the police? I was framed?" Xiangbei shook his head, "Maybe someone has called the police for me. I have no evidence now. How can I explain it clearly when I get to the police?"

"What should I do? Husband, don't investigate the case in Luohe Village. You are not a policeman or a competent department. Why do you have to be so persistent!"

"I originally thought I had found a news point that other reporters ignored and could do another in-depth report. However, I didn't expect the price of this report to be so high. And... I have no way out now. Even if I don't check it, it's too late..."

"The matter in Luohe Village has passed. The newspaper has not held you responsible. The most important thing now is, what should I do if these letters of complaint?"

"The 25 letters of complaint involve all the problems involved, and many leaders and colleagues have affected many leaders and colleagues. Even though I think those who are clear of themselves and insist that those reports such as extortion are spreading rumors, there are still many things that cannot be explained clearly. For example, accepting banquets during business trips, such as business trip approval, financial audit, accommodation, transportation subsidies, etc. As long as they want to check, they can always grab your braid."

Xiangbei's discourse is implicit and does not speak directly about the unspoken rules.

There are certain accommodation standards and subsidy standards for business trips on public funds. Sometimes, business trips use the difference between accommodation standards and actual expenses to earn some extra income. These are all public secrets, and everyone knows it. If no one pursues it, this kind of thing will be confused. But if you really have to be serious, you will pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and you can also investigate and deal with the tricks from the hotel's books. If this is the case, almost everyone in the newspaper will be found.

"It's not just these small problems of violations, some of which also involve newspaper leaders, and the amount involved is huge."

"Then...what would it be if I checked?"

"It depends on how to check it. If you are serious and don't miss every detail, you may not be able to find it out for a year or two. Moreover, it is very likely that a series of people will be involved, even some leaders."

Xiangbei has taken into account both the best and the worst. The so-called good result is that he is whitewashed through investigation and can continue to work as a journalist; the bad result is that the leader abandons his soldiers and protects the commander, "sacrificing" him Xiangbei and maintains the reputation of the newspaper.

"Husband, you have worked in the unit for so many years and have done so many things for the newspapers. They won't be so decisive."

"When it comes to that time, what do you think they will choose? Of course, this is just a pessimistic idea. If you are optimistic, things may not be so bad."

"I think so. If the newspaper is so heartless, it will be too heartbreaking. I don't think so. Besides, Qu Changguo admires you very much. You should discuss it with him in everything, after all, he is the leader of the editor-in-chief's office. With him talking to you, many things may be much easier." Zhou Xuechen said.

"Qu Changguo? Why did I forget him?"

"You, you really have to remember what others are doing. When you are sick and hospitalized, Qu Changguo is busy. You said, what are they trying to do? Isn't it because we are alumni and fellow villagers!"

"Well, maybe he can help this time." However, when it comes to the point where it is really about one's own interests, one's instinctive reaction should be to protect oneself. In his opinion, his relationship with Qu Changguo has not yet reached the point where he can sacrifice himself for the other party or put himself in a dangerous situation.
