Siheyuan: I am Banggeng's uncle

Chapter 716 Jia Dongming's Reminder!

After finishing his call with Liu Guozhu, Jia Dongming smiled and said to Chen Weiguo, who was standing next to him, "Captain Chen! I'm going back to the Municipal Bureau to report on my work. If there are any results regarding the interrogation of Gui Laoqi and the others, remember to give me a call."

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's instructions, Chen Weiguo immediately nodded and assured Jia Dongming, "Captain Jia! I will inform you as soon as we have any results."

After saying goodbye to Chen Weiguo, Jia Dongming took a sidecar tricycle from the Fengtai Branch Bureau and quickly returned to the Municipal Bureau.

Jia Dongming walked quickly to Zhang Zhitao's office door and saw Zhang Zhitao making a phone call inside. He knocked on the door, intending to wait until Zhang Zhitao finished his call before entering the office.

Zhang Zhitao, who was on the phone, heard a knock on the door and instinctively looked towards the office door. When he saw Jia Dongming standing at the door, he quickly waved to Jia Dongming, signaling him to come into his office.

Upon seeing Zhang Zhitao's gesture, Jia Dongming immediately went into Zhang Zhitao's office, sat down opposite him, and quietly waited for Zhang Zhitao to finish his call.

Zhang Zhitao quickly finished his call, put the receiver on his desk, and said to Jia Dongming with a smile, "Comrade Dongming! I thought it would take you a while to solve this case involving multiple individuals, but I didn't expect that you not only found out the truth in a short time, but also solved several old cases that had been around for a long time."

Upon hearing Zhang Zhitao's words, Jia Dongming respectfully replied, "Captain! Although the case is very clear, we haven't yet found out who the mastermind behind the black market is. Also, with the grain department, all we've found so far are some small fry."

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's explanation, Zhang Zhitao smiled and said to Jia Dongming, "Comrade Dongming! Although they are just small fry, the details of this case are already very clear. As long as the comrades in the disciplinary department can delve deeper based on the existing evidence, I believe they will soon be able to bring the big fish hiding behind the scenes to justice."

Upon hearing Zhang Zhitao's words and thinking of the traitor hiding in the shadows, Jia Dongming was not as optimistic as Zhang Zhitao. At the same time, he reminded Zhang Zhitao, "Captain! Although this case is about to be solved, I am worried that someone will tip off the big fish behind the scenes. I think you need to remind the disciplinary department."

Upon hearing Jia Dongming's reminder, Zhang Zhitao smiled and said to Jia Dongming, "Comrade Dongming! Regarding the situation you just mentioned, we specifically mentioned it to the disciplinary department when we handed Wen Xiaoyu over. Now, the disciplinary department is arresting all known suspects based on the list we provided. As for how far they can investigate in the end, that's a matter for the disciplinary department."

Upon hearing Zhang Zhitao's reply, Jia Dongming raised his wrist, glanced at the time on his watch, then stood up from his chair and said with a smile to Zhang Zhitao, "Captain! It's getting late, so I'll head back now."

At 5 p.m., Qin Huairu and several colleagues from the office went to the canteen to collect the Mid-Autumn Festival benefits distributed by the factory, and then rode their bicycles home to cook.

"Comrade Qin Huairu! Please wait a moment." As Qin Huairu rode her bicycle past the steel mill gate, a familiar voice suddenly called out. Seeing someone calling her, Qin Huairu immediately braked, stopped her bicycle, and looked in the direction of the voice. When she saw that the person calling her was none other than the head of the logistics section of the security department, a look of surprise crossed her face. She politely greeted him, "Section Chief Zhang! Is there something you need?"

After seeing Qin Huairu park her car, Zhang Guoping quickly walked up to her and introduced her with a smile: "Comrade Qin Huairu! The Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner, and our department has prepared some benefits for our colleagues. Our department head has a case to investigate at the Municipal Bureau and doesn't have time to come back to the department to collect the benefits, so he asked me to wait for you here so you can take your share of the benefits."

When Qin Huairu learned why Zhang Guoping had come to see her, she quickly smiled and asked him, "Section Chief Zhang! You could have just called me and come to your security office to get it. It's so inconvenient to make you wait here for me."

Upon hearing Qin Huairu's words, Zhang Guoping smiled and said to her, "Comrade Qin Huairu! The benefits distributed in our department are more than those distributed in the factory. If we were to receive them directly from the factory, it would cause some negative impacts, so I can only wait for you here."

Upon hearing Zhang Guoping's answer, Qin Huairu immediately recalled the incident during the Spring Festival when the factory workers caused trouble at the security office. She then asked Zhang Guoping, "Section Chief Zhang! Where is that thing? I'll go get it with you right now."

Upon hearing Qin Huairu's inquiry, Zhang Guoping immediately smiled and said to her, "Comrade Qin Huairu, I'll leave the items in the duty room. Please wait for me at the street corner ahead, and I'll bring them to you later."

Upon hearing Zhang Guoping's reply, Qin Huairu immediately thanked him, saying, "Section Chief Zhang! Thank you so much."

Around 5 p.m., Qin Huairu rode her bicycle back to the courtyard. As she pushed the bicycle into the front yard, the door god Yan Bugui saw Qin Huairu pushing the bicycle and his gaze instantly fixed on the bag on the back of the bicycle.

Upon seeing the bulging bag in front of him, Yan Bugui thought of his neighbors who worked at the steel rolling mill and the Mid-Autumn Festival bonuses they received from the mill when they came home from get off work. He quickly stepped forward and asked Qin Huairu with a smile, "Huairu! I heard that your steel rolling mill is distributing holiday bonuses today. This big bag of stuff on the back of your car, could it all be from the steel rolling mill?"

Most of the residents in the courtyard were workers from the steel rolling mill. Qin Huairu believed that Yan Bugui must know what kind of benefits the steel rolling mill distributed. Faced with Yan Bugui's probing, Qin Huairu pretended to be ignorant and said, "Teacher Yan! How could the steel rolling mill distribute a big bag of things? This is something my uncle specially asked someone to buy for him to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. I just brought it back for him."

Upon hearing Qin Huairu's explanation, Yan Bugui's face lit up with a look of sudden realization. He said with a smile, "I was wondering why everyone else only brought back a pound of meat and a few pounds of flour. How did you bring back so much stuff? So that's why."

Upon hearing Yan Bugui's reply, Qin Huairu, remembering his opportunistic nature, pushed her bicycle toward the central courtyard and replied, "Teacher Yan! I need to go home and cook, so I won't chat with you any longer."
