Name: The Holy Son of the Energy Department Enters Handong

Qi Tongwei heard Zhao Xia's words clearly and knew that Hou Liangping had probably been saved by some mysterious force with great effort once again.

Zhao Xia must have received some kind of benefit.

That's why I made that phone call to myself.

"Yes, Governor Zhao, I know what to do. I will definitely carry out your instructions properly."

Qi Tongwei nodded respectfully, already acknowledging in his heart that Hou Liangping, that lucky fellow, had escaped another calamity.

It would be a lie to say I'm not envious. Hou Liangping's mess was truly outrageous, with a provincial standing committee member ending up in the ICU.

If it were him, Qi Tongwei believed he would be dismissed immediately, and might even be investigated by the disciplinary committee!

This doesn't seem like Hou Liangping.

Despite causing such a huge disaster, the provincial party committee did not hold a meeting to criticize Hou Liangping.

The Political and Legal Affairs Commission has connections with teacher Gao Yuliang, but has not yet begun an investigation.

As for Tian Guofu from the Discipline Inspection Commission, he was just one of Sha Ruijin's lackeys.

There was absolutely no intention to investigate Hou Liangping.

If Zhao Xia hadn't given the order to arrest Hou Liangping...

If Hou Liangping reveals his status as an alumnus of Handong University, Qi Tongwei himself will have to hesitate about whether to arrest him.

Looking back now, Hou Liangping was really lucky.

"Sigh, you know what to do. Remember, if Hou Liangping doesn't tell the truth and is particularly stubborn..."

Don't show him any mercy. Lock him up for as long as he needs to, until he behaves himself. Doesn't he think no one can judge him?

"If he doesn't honestly confess and admit his mistakes in the details this time, then don't let him out!" Zhao Xia said calmly.

Qi Tongwei perked up upon hearing this.

I was wrong before. Governor Zhao Xia has no intention of letting Hou Liangping off so easily.

Of course, it doesn't mean we won't let it go; it all depends on the other party's attitude.

Those who are legally detained in solitary confinement for a few days must earnestly admit their mistakes and express remorse. Hou Liangping has caused such a huge disaster; it's impossible for him to be released without even showing the slightest remorse.

If word gets out, how will we be able to carry out our work?!

This will not only have a huge impact on the reputation of the Public Security Bureau, but will also affect the level of trust in the provincial government.

"Okay, Governor Zhao, I know what to do!" Qi Tongwei nodded again to confirm.

He had barely finished speaking when the phone went dead; it had been disconnected.

Qi Tongwei gently put down the phone.

Turn on the computer and bring up Hou Liangping's screen.

This man was still shouting; even after being detained for several days, his arrogance remained undiminished.

He hasn't been eating much these past few days, so I don't know how he's been able to maintain such a high level of exercise!

Could this monkey be a master of endurance?

Governor Zhao's instructions were clear: if the other side did not obediently submit and admit their mistakes, then...

This person is someone I absolutely cannot let go.

But look at Hou Liangping now.

Getting someone to admit their mistakes and settle down is an extremely difficult thing.

Knowing Hou Liangping's temperament as well as Qi Tongwei did, reasoning with him was definitely not going to work.

"Ryoping, Ryoping, don't blame me. This is all for your own good; I want you to have a better chance of getting out!"

Qi Tongwei pulled out a police baton that he had carried with him for many years from under his cabinet.

He muttered to himself, "Old buddy, I never expected that even after I've gotten to this position, you'd still have a role. You've really worked hard!"

Qi Tongwei walked out of the office and ordered someone to turn off Hou Liangping's camera.

"With a loud crash!"

Hou Liangping's door was opened.

"Hahahaha, I knew you couldn't keep me locked up for long, because the Zhong family is standing behind me. How long can you keep me locked up?"

Aren't you all very capable?

Now you'd better obediently release me!

"Just you wait, once I get out, you'll all be finished, one by one!"

When Hou Liangping saw the door open, he thought he was about to be let out, so he laughed and mocked the person who walked in.

"Ryoping, who said we were letting you leave!"

Qi Tongwei, who had just entered, turned on the light in the solitary confinement cell, allowing Hou Liangping to see that familiar face clearly.

"Qi Tongwei, how could it be you? Qi Tongwei, what are you doing here?!"

"So you've finally remembered our alumni bond, and you're going to release me?" Hou Liangping was puzzled for a moment, then overjoyed.

He felt that Qi Tongwei must have remembered their shared alma mater, Handong University, and was looking for an excuse to let him go.

After all, the Zhong family was standing behind them, and everyone wanted to curry favor with them.

It's quite possible that Qi Tongwei, the opportunist who once knelt before a woman more than ten years his senior for the sake of his future, would now be trying to curry favor with me.

"At least you have some brains and know what's good for you. Now release me!"

Otherwise, I'll go to Teacher Gao, I'll go to Secretary Sha, I'll go to Uncle Zhong—none of them will tolerate you. Why did you arrest me? Even though I did something wrong, you've put me in jail, and that's your problem!

Hou Liangping looked at Qi Tongwei and said with a big smile.

His beard was unkempt, and he reeked of a foul stench. His pupils were wild and excited.

Qi Tongwei approached, intending to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth...

Hou Liangping's unpleasant smell entered my nasal cavity.

Qi Tongwei couldn't help but pinch his nose and take several steps back.

The baton in his hand trembled slightly; it was a treasure that required close-range handling.

The limitation of close proximity became a fatal flaw at this moment.

"Hou Liangping, I'm asking you now, regarding the incident where Li Dakang was hit and sent to the ICU, are you responsible for it, and do you acknowledge your own responsibility?"

"If it weren't for you, this incident could very likely have been avoided by stopping the highway last time. From a causal perspective, you bear the primary responsibility. Do you want to acknowledge that responsibility?"

Qi Tongwei pinched his nose and shouted at Hou Liangping, "If the other party admits these mistakes..."

He would release the person directly and then hand them over to the disciplinary committee.

Once they reached the Discipline Inspection Commission, it was anyone's guess what Sha Ruijin and Tian Guofu would do.

In any case, Zhao Xia's meaning is that Qi Tongwei probably understands that Hou Liangping should be let go and not kept in the provincial department.

Qi Tongwei speculated that the core leadership of Handong Province must have reached some kind of consensus to achieve this result!

But Governor Zhao's words were also very clear: if Hou Liangping doesn't admit his mistake, it's impossible for the other party to leave.

As a senior student, he felt he should help Hou Liangping gain his freedom!

So he brought his baton with him.

"Qi Tongwei, what nonsense are you spouting? I don't admit it!"

As expected, Hou Liangping denied everything when faced with Qi Tongwei's series of questions.

They felt they hadn't made any mistakes, and that everything they did was correct.

"Liangping, Liangping, this isn't my fault. I'm doing this for your own good. I want you to get out of here as soon as possible!" Qi Tongwei's pupils blazed with a chilling flame at the sight.

He raised his baton!

"Hehehe!?!"
