A man in Handong: living off Zhong Xiaoai

Chapter Sixty: This is a small token of appreciation from Director Qi.

Soon after, Qi Tongwei's appointment document was issued, and Qi Tongwei officially became the head of the Handong Provincial Police Department.

Now that Qi Tongwei's position is vacant again, Han Ming and Zhang Lei have another opportunity.

It seems that Qi Tongwei holds the greatest say in deciding who gets promoted to deputy director-general level.

As Zhao Lichun's most trusted department-level cadre and the head of the provincial department, Qi Tongwei's vote was particularly important.

On this day, Liu Jianhua, the deputy director of the provincial department who had always had a problem with Qi Tongwei, came to Qi Tongwei's office.

"Director Qi, are you busy?"

Qi Tongwei looked up at Liu Jianhua, then back at the documents in his hand.

"Jianhua, please have a seat."

"Director Qi, I brought you some crabs. Please take them home and enjoy them with your wife."

Upon hearing Liu Jianhua's words, Qi Tongwei looked up again and saw Liu Jianhua carrying two heavy gift boxes.

"Jianhua, what are you doing?"

"The crabs around the Mid-Autumn Festival are the fattest and most delicious. This is just a small token of my appreciation. It's a local specialty. My hometown is in southern Jiangsu, where this is produced. It's just a local specialty, so please don't refuse!"

Qi Tongwei smiled.

"Jianhua, we have plenty of crabs at home, you don't need to spend money."

Liu Jianhua looked extremely embarrassed after hearing Qi Tongwei's words.

"Director Qi, look at me, I'm already 59 this year, and I might have to retire next year..."

Upon hearing Liu Jianhua's words, Qi Tongwei immediately realized what was happening.

He has now become the director of the department, but the position of executive deputy director in the provincial department is still vacant.

If Qi Tongwei wasn't mistaken, Liu Jianhua was after this position of executive deputy director.

Because this executive deputy director-general position is equivalent to a full director-general position.

"Jianhua, are you thinking of getting another promotion before you retire?"

Upon hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Liu Jianhua immediately smiled.

"Director Qi, nothing can escape your eyes. In terms of retirement benefits, this half-grade difference is quite significant. I wonder if Director Qi could give me a chance?"

Hearing Liu Jianhua's words, Qi Tongwei's lips still curled up in a smile.

“Jianhua, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but you know that Liu Yuyan still has bullet casings in his body that haven’t been removed. He’s 59 years old, and all he has now is this position of executive deputy director. It’s really difficult for me.”

"Director Qi, Liu Yuyan has no chance against me. I participated in the song title competition before!"

"Oh?"

"When I was young, I carried explosive packs on my back. At that time, our company commander told us..."

Qi Tongwei listened to Liu Jianhua's words and felt a sense of familiarity.

Wait a minute! Isn't this the story of Chen Yanshi in the drama?

While working at the procuratorate, Chen Yanshi often brought up this matter with everyone.

What? Now there are two old comrades who used to carry explosives?

And the versions of the story are all pretty much the same?

What do they mean by this? Comrades from the same company?

Qi Tongwei smiled helplessly.

I used to be the one actively striving for advancement, but now I've become the one who controls other people's fates so quickly.

"Jianhua, I know your predicament. I will try my best to help you solve it, but everything still depends on the organization's arrangements."

Liu Jianhua's expression turned somewhat unpleasant after hearing Qi Tongwei's words.

"Director Qi, are you perhaps misunderstanding my previous attitude? I didn't know much about your work capabilities before, so please don't take some of the things I said back then to heart!"

Looking at Liu Jianhua in front of him, Qi Tongwei thought to himself, "You didn't just misunderstand yourself before, you actually looked down on yourself."

However, Qi Tongwei did not intend to hold a grudge against Liu Jianhua; he had just taken office and did not yet have time to focus his energy on this matter.

Just then, Han Ming rushed in.

When Han Ming came in, he saw Liu Jianhua sitting there, along with the crabs Liu Jianhua had brought, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

When Qi Tongwei saw Han Ming, he couldn't help but twitch his lips twice.

"How come you're just like Jiang Guangming? It's one thing for her to be a woman, but how come you didn't even knock before entering my office?"

Han Ming looked a little embarrassed after hearing Qi Tongwei's words.

Because the deputy director in charge of criminal investigation and drug enforcement has not yet taken office, these two areas are still being personally overseen by Qi Tongwei.

"Director Qi, something has happened. A family has been wiped out in Jinhai City. We have obtained evidence that the murderer is likely Guan Hongfeng, the captain of the criminal investigation team of the Jinhai City Public Security Bureau."

"Guan Hongfeng?"

Upon hearing this name, Qi Tongwei could roughly guess what was going on.

After receiving the documents from Han Ming, the face of Pan Yueming, the male lead of "Day and Night," was clearly visible on the paper.

In that instant, Qi Tongwei completely understood what was going on.

"Director Qi, look, this is the person."

Seeing that Qi Tongwei and Han Ming were discussing a case, Liu Jianhua tactfully stood up.

"Director Qi, shall I go out first?"

Qi Tongwei waved his hand.

"It's alright, Jianhua, you can listen to it too."

As he spoke, Qi Tongwei looked at Han Ming standing to the side.

"Han Ming, go and find out if Guan Hongfeng has any brothers, like twins or something."

...

"Director Qi, are you saying that this case wasn't committed by Guan Hongfeng, but by his own brother?"

Qi Tongwei smiled.

“I didn’t say that. I just think we should trust our comrades. Go and find out the details first, and then report back to me.”

In the original series, Guan Hongfeng has a twin brother, and everyone believes that Guan Hongfeng's twin brother, Guan Hongyu, committed the crime.

Of course, Guan Hongfeng also lost his position as the head of the criminal investigation team because of this incident.

However, Qi Tongwei was well aware that this case had nothing to do with the Guan brothers, Guan Hongfeng and Guan Hongyu.

After hearing Qi Tongwei's words, Han Ming nodded and then turned and left.

After Han Ming left, Qi Tongwei noticed a subtle change in the expression on Liu Jianhua's face.

Needless to say, Liu Jianhua doesn't believe in his own judgment.

They also did not believe in the supposed ability to solve cases based on talent and intuition, as claimed in the rumors.

Qi Tongwei looked at Liu Jianhua.

"Jianhua, do you think it's impossible for Guan Hongfeng to have a twin brother?"

Liu Jianhua had been thinking the same thing, but then he heard Qi Tongwei ask it.

He quickly smiled and shook his head.

"No, no! How could that be? Why would I suspect Director Qi?"

Qi Tongwei found Liu Jianhua's reaction amusing. If you don't believe it, just don't. Why pretend to believe it?

"Jianhua, we'll discuss your matter later. Focus on your work first. Also, take those crabs and stuff back with you."

Chapter Sixty-One: Qi Tongwei's case is not yet closed.

When Liu Jianhua saw that Qi Tongwei refused to accept his gifts, he smiled awkwardly.

He went over to the two boxes of crabs and deliberately shook them.

"Director Qi, these crabs are all large and bright red. Would you like to take a look before making a decision?"

Upon hearing Liu Jianhua's words, Qi Tongwei quickly understood what he meant.

Goodness, this kid's really going all out for me, he's planning to spend money on me.

Once Qi Tongwei understood Liu Jianhua's meaning, he was even less inclined to accept the gift.

If I accept this, wouldn't Liu Jianhua have something on me?

Moreover, and most importantly, Qi Tongwei really doesn't lack this.

“Jianhua, our relationship is purely comradeship. Don’t make a fuss about this. I know your situation very well, but you don’t need to leave your things here. Take them back. The organization will consider your case if it’s necessary. Do you understand the ‘February 27th’ policy?”

Seeing that he had made his point so clear, but Qi Tongwei still refused to accept it, Liu Jianhua had no choice but to accept it.

Disappointed, he picked up his things and left Qi Tongwei's office.

When Liu Jianhua came out, he remembered Qi Tongwei's comments about Guan Hongfeng's twin brother and couldn't help but shake his head.

"This amateur is an amateur. As a police officer, how can you rely on guesswork when something happens?"

On the other side of the provincial hall, Han Ming had already returned to his office.

Jiang Guangming looked at Han Ming with some nervousness.

"Captain Han, how's it going? What did Director Qi say?"

Han Ming frowned.

"Director Qi said to let us investigate and see if Guan Hongfeng has a twin brother."

Upon hearing Han Ming's words, everyone in the office widened their eyes.

"No way, Director Qi has made such outrageous remarks again?"
