Chapter 6 is just about you being okay

  It's a coincidence that I just got back and received the notification, the investigation team is having another meeting. Although they had one in the morning, Liu Siyuan didn't think it was strange, after all, when you work for the government, you can't be afraid of meetings, you get used to them early on.

  However, this meeting still revealed a hint of weirdness because there were two more people. One was wearing a vest and holding a camera, taking a burst of shots at the conference table. Next to him sat a woman. Liu Siyuan took a closer look and didn't need to think about it - his laptop was about to move. Although he had just met Fang Xinyi today, he was still shocked by this woman. Top-notch, Liu Siyuan concluded without hesitation. Sure enough, the laptop shook violently, and when Liu Siyuan opened it with a bitter smile, he saw that it said: Xiao Yuheng S-class.

  Alright, this time even the notebook thinks it's top-notch. However, what happened next left all the deputy and section-level cadres present in shock - that top-notch beauty actually walked up to Comrade Liu Siyuan and asked: "Comrade Liu Siyuan from the Municipal Supervision Office?"

  "Yes, who are you?" Liu Siyuan was also surprised, he definitely didn't know her, why did she know him?

  "My name is Xiao Yuhang, reporter. I'm in charge of interviewing the food poisoning incident at Hanjiang University." Xiao Yuhang stretched out his hand, but his attitude was extremely cold.

  Liu Siyuan hastily shook hands with her, feeling a slightly chilly sensation in his hand. The impression this woman gave him was summed up in one word: cold. Whether it was the tone of her speech or her demeanor, there was an inexplicable sense of detachment.

  "By the way, I'm looking forward to Inspector Liu's performance." Xiao Yuheng suddenly said this and then returned to his own position.

  Liu Siyuan sat blankly in the last position, and as a result, a section chief from the Industry and Commerce Bureau next to him couldn't help but ask: "I say, Little Liu, what's this woman's background? She has quite some skills, actually able to get Director Guo to personally call Mayor Xu, requesting permission for them to film the meeting process. What kind of thing is this?"

  Director Guo is probably the Municipal Party Committee Standing Member and Propaganda Department Director Guo Debiao. It's understandable that this section chief doesn't like media taking pictures. Both the province and city hope to control the influence, but the effect has always been unclear. Director Guo has already borne a lot of pressure, let alone this kind of meeting is destined to be all empty talk, not worth mentioning.

  On the contrary, Minister Guo even went out of his way to greet them and have them come over, which shows just how powerful the forces backing these two individuals are.

  Liu Siyuan honestly said that he didn't know the woman either, but the section chief obviously didn't believe a word of it. However, he didn't ask further questions, as it's taboo in official circles to dig too deep.

  The meeting started with everyone speaking in a relatively polite manner, clearly because of the camera. However, once it really involved the interests of all parties, they couldn't care less and quickly threw caution to the wind, starting another intense argument. Liu Siyuan sneaked a few glances at Xiao Yuheng, only to see her looking disdainful. Twice when she happened to be looking at Liu Siyuan as well, the two exchanged gazes.

  "Comrade Little Liu, have you gone to visit our hospitalized classmate?" Suddenly, Xu Hui called out his name again.

  Liu Siyuan thought to himself that it was just in time. He looked sorrowful and said, "I've read it, and I'm truly heartbroken. Some people's consciences are really black."

  Seeing him so eloquent, Xu Hui's first reaction was that this kid probably wanted to perform in front of the camera. Thinking about how his people had behaved earlier, he thought it was a bit embarrassing and secretly said, "Let you pretend, I'll expose your true nature." So he said: "Yes, what is Comrade Liu's opinion on this matter?"

  "Mayor Xu, leaders of the municipal departments, I'd like to say something first. Just now, when I returned from the hospital, I saw several classmates holding a banner with the content strongly demanding the resignation of Huang Si Lang, the head of the logistics department. My thinking is that although we cannot arbitrarily judge a comrade, there must be some reason for so many classmates to have opinions about Director Huang. Therefore, my suggestions are as follows: First, immediately suspend Director Huang's duties; second, request the provincial and municipal disciplinary committees to work with the Ministry of Education's disciplinary department and the relevant leaders of Hanjiang University to intervene, thoroughly investigate the case, and report back to the Ministry of Education. If the investigation finds no problems, it can clear Director Huang's name and also give an explanation to the students. However, if problems are found..." Liu Siyuan paused for a moment, looking at the officials who had been shocked by his words with confidence and seriousness: "Then I personally suggest severe punishment, and also conduct a thorough investigation of other personnel, purify the air in our campus!"

  Everyone was shocked by his words, and for a moment the meeting room fell silent. Xu Hui stared blankly at Liu Siyuan, who was speaking eloquently, thinking to himself that this kid must have been injected with chicken blood or something. He somewhat nervously asked: "Comrade Liu, can you represent the opinions of your city government's Supervision Office?"

  Liu Siyuan immediately replied loudly: "Of course, since the leader of the Municipal Government Supervision Office trusts me and lets me be in charge of investigating this poisoning incident, I can certainly represent the opinions of our city's supervision office."

  Xu Hui snapped out of his shock and his brain quickly spun into action, suddenly breaking into a smile. He thought to himself, "Fine, you want to be a hero? Then go ahead, but you'll have to bear the consequences. Perfect, I've got a scapegoat now." He was just waiting for the deputy governor's anger to erupt. He glanced around and saw that several old hands had already shown expressions of concern. He spoke up, "Alright, since the comrades from the Supervision Office think this is feasible, in principle, I respect the opinion of the Supervision Office. How about this? I suggest that the Supervision Office issue a supervision report to Hanjiang University, requesting that Huang Si Lang be temporarily suspended from his duties. What do you think, Principal?"

  The key point is that he said it was an inspection report, not a working group's investigation report. It's clear that he didn't want to take responsibility for this, and not only Liu Siyuan, but also Xiao Yuheng, who was filming, also showed a hint of disdain on his face.

  Shan Xiaoming was actually more deeply moved by the students' protest activities than these officials, and he sincerely wished for a quick way to calm down the student protests. However, he didn't dare take the initiative to suggest suspending Huang Si Lang's job. Since the Municipal Supervision Office was willing to be the scapegoat, he naturally had no opinion. He would just say that it was in accordance with the municipal government's requirements and couldn't blame himself. So he hastily said: "I agree with the city leaders' opinions, and I will report to Principal Zhang and discuss the handling of the matter at the school party committee meeting."

  Xu Hui nodded in satisfaction, also drawing a conclusion. At this time, the deputy head of the investigation team and the director of the Municipal Education Bureau suddenly spoke up: "Since it was Comrade Liu who proposed it, then Comrade Liu should sign his name on the report too."

  Everyone immediately understood what he meant, which was to find an excuse for Secretary Zhang. If there really is a problem, they can just say that Comrade Liu Siyuan acted unilaterally and on his own accord.

  Liu Siyuan cursed inwardly at the old fox, but of course he couldn't show weakness in his words. He said loudly: "Alright, I'll take full responsibility for any problems that arise."

  Xu Hui felt a weight lift off his mind and made some polite remarks before declaring the meeting adjourned.

  Liu Siyuan was packing his things and hadn't had time to leave yet, when he saw Xiao Yuheng walk over again, looking at him with a profound gaze, saying "You're the only one who's okay." Then she turned around and left.
