Names: Uncle Zhao Mengsheng, Father-in-law Pei Yihong

But Qi Tongwei, Gao Yuliang, and Liu Changsheng blocked the road completely from the front and back.

If you don't go, you're just making excuses.

You went, and regardless of the outcome, at least you've stated your responsibility.

Li Dakang coughed and said, "To be fair, Secretary Sha is indeed the most suitable person for this job. Anyone else would be unable to even get through the door."

Liu Changsheng's spirits returned. "I agree. Let's vote by raising hands."

This time, hands were raised even faster.

Gao Yuliang, Li Dakang, Qi Tongwei, Liu Changsheng and others quickly raised their hands.

Sha Ruijin felt a throbbing headache as he watched a circle of arms rise up.

For the first time, he felt a sense of absurdity at the Standing Committee meeting. He was clearly the top leader, yet he had been promoted by vote after vote.

Qi Tongwei raised his hand, his face serious, but he knew perfectly well that it was Sha Ruijin who had to go.

Even if you don't let him get involved, he can still stand on the shore and talk forever.

Finally, Sha Ruijin raised his hand, "I agree."

It passed unanimously again.

Liu Changsheng lowered his head, took a sip of tea, and almost burst out laughing.

The most interesting thing about officialdom isn't how harshly you're scolded, but that a group of people sit around and politely hand you a hot potato that nobody wants to touch, and you still have to nod and say that the organization trusts you.

Sha Ruijin put his pen on the table. "Okay, that's settled then. The fugitive pursuit task force is established, with Governor Liu in charge and Qi Tongwei and Tian Guofu assisting."

I am responsible for persuading the family members to return home. After the meeting, each of you should carry out your respective duties.

He had just finished speaking when the phone in the corner of the conference room suddenly rang.

The ringtone sounded particularly jarring.

Qi Tongwei answered the phone, "This is Qi Tongwei."

Cheng Du's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Executive Qi, we've gotten some information out of them. This Li Shiya who was arrested... something's not right."

Qi Tongwei frowned. "Explain yourself."

Qi Tongwei turned on the speakerphone on his phone.

Cheng Du stated the facts: "She was very stubborn, insisting that she was Li Shiya. But Zhao Donglai, Xia Changfeng, and I questioned her for several hours, and the more we questioned her, the more suspicious it seemed. We basically concluded that the person was not Li Shiya; she looked too much like her and almost fooled us."

Qi Tongwei's eyelid twitched.

This news came at the perfect time, and it was also incredibly crucial.

Just as Chen Shan's escape route was opened, another fake one appeared on Li Shiya's side.

If the two lines can be joined together, then the water is exceptionally deep.

"Let's connect via video." Qi Tongwei felt that would be more intuitive.

"It's all ready." Cheng Du had already made all the necessary preparations.

It is meant to be presented at the Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee meeting.

Qi Tongwei then reiterated the general situation: "Secretary Sha, Governor Liu, Secretary Gao, there's new information from Chengdu. It's basically confirmed that the person arrested is not Li Shiya."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the room became interested.

I'm genuinely curious.

Li Dakang couldn't hold back any longer, "Not Li Shiya? Then who is it? Are they playing some kind of magic trick?"

Tian Guofu was also stunned. "Could it be a mistake?"

"It might not be a mistake; someone might be deliberately letting her use Li Shiya's identity." Qi Tongwei looked at Sha Ruijin. "I suggest we do a live broadcast so everyone can watch together."

Sha Ruijin nodded, "Okay, bring them in as soon as possible."

A few minutes later, the screen at the front of the conference room lit up.

The video was a bit shaky, as if it had been cut off temporarily.

There were four people sitting in the interrogation room.

On one side are Cheng Du, Zhao Donglai, and Xia Changfeng.

There was a woman sitting opposite me.

With her long hair, head down, and profile visible, a gasp was heard in the conference room as soon as she appeared.

so similar.

Not only are the outlines similar, but even the contours of the nose, lips, and chin match.

If I hadn't been warned beforehand that she wasn't Li Shiya, anyone would have believed me eight or nine parts out of ten.

Tian Guofu stared at the screen. "If this isn't a person, I'll eat the table."

Nobody took the bait.

Cheng Du tapped on the table. "Name."

The woman looked up. "Li Shiya."

Xia Changfeng pressed, "Say it again."

"Li Shiya".

Zhao Donglai flipped through the documents. "You said you grew up in Jingzhou and studied accounting on your own. Then let me ask you, which dormitory building did you live in during your sophomore year?"

The woman paused for a moment, then said, "Building Three."

Zhao Donglai looked up at her. "The school doesn't have a third dormitory building. There are only five girls' dormitories." The third dormitory building is for boys.

If it were the person in question, there would be absolutely no way they could have misremembered.

The woman pursed her lips. "I might be mistaken. It's Building Three."

In the conference room, a group of standing committee members stared at the screen, none of them speaking.

The real problem is that if you ask too many questions, you'll be afraid of getting a fake one.

But this woman was strange; when asked questions she couldn't answer, she didn't panic, beg for mercy, or panic.

In short, I am Li Shiya.

That stubbornness is annoying to watch.

Cheng Du pushed a photo over, asking, "Do you recognize me?"

The woman glanced at him and said, "I know him, he's my cousin."

"What's your name?"

"Li Shifeng".

"How many times did you see him last month?"

"I can't remember."

"So what do you usually call him?"

The woman paused for a moment, then said, "Shifeng."

Xia Changfeng slammed another document on the table. "Do you know what your biggest problem is right now?"

It's not that you look like it, it's that you don't imitate it well.

Someone put your face here, taught you a few words, and then threw you out.

Is it worth it for you to grit your teeth and bear it for others?

The woman insisted, "I am Li Shiya."

In the conference room, Tian Guofu rubbed his hands together, saying, "This is weird, really weird. What do you think she's after?"

She was quite good-looking, what a pity.

Tian Guofu felt that this was at least a fallen girl.

"She's got someone protecting her family, someone promising her something, and if she admits it, they can hide the other thread." Gao Yuliang stared at the screen. "This is probably no ordinary stand-in; there must be someone behind her."

Tian Guofu sneered, "Secretary Yuliang, it's nonsense to say there's someone behind you. The question is, who is it?"

Qi Tongwei stood beside the screen, tapping his fingers lightly on the edge of the table, and suddenly spoke.

"Du Cheng, interrogate Li Shifeng."

Cheng Du was taken aback on the other end of the line. "Now?"

Qi Tongwei said firmly, "Now."

Not long after, Li Shifeng was taken into the interrogation room next door.

Li Shifeng was a tall, thin man. He was still unsteady on his feet when he entered the room. After sitting down, he first looked around at the cameras and his Adam's apple bobbed.

Cheng Du asked directly, "Is that woman Li Shiya?"

Li Shifeng answered without hesitation, "Yes, she is my cousin."

Are you sure?

"Sure."

"Look again carefully."

"Even if I watch it ten times, it's still her."

The same statement.

In the conference room, Liu Changsheng leaned back in his chair and muttered, "This is a group fight. One person is charging in and carrying the load, while another is passing the sticks from behind."

Qi Tongwei shook his head. "I reckon Li Shifeng won't get any real information out of him, which means he only knows a limited amount of knowledge, or he only knows what to say."

"Then what should we do?" Sha Ruijin asked.

Qi Tongwei uttered a name, "Contact Du Bozhong."

Li Dakang looked up. "Didn't Du Bozhong already appear on screen?"

"Yes, that's why we need to find him. Du Bozhong is the largest shareholder of the Shanshui Group," Qi Tongwei continued his analysis. "Du Bozhong has done business with Zhao Ruilong. It's no coincidence that Du Bozhong is in Hong Kong. He might know where Li Shiya is."

"How can we get in touch with Du Bozhong?" Sha Ruijin felt that a breakthrough might be coming soon.
