LRAB Chapter 2234 The Troublesome Li Family
Chapter 2234 The Troublesome Li Family
Ordinary people have their own everyday troubles, and important people also have their own worries.
Xicheng District
Staff Officer Wang came in person but couldn't take District Chief Song away. Old Li also called to ask for him, and even asked several old comrades to help him get out of trouble.
As it turned out, Master Duo didn't recognize these people, since he wasn't a soldier who fought in battles.
The bureau chief did recognize him, but upon hearing that it was Secretary Lin of the steel rolling mill who wanted to arrest him, he withstood the pressure and did not forcibly release him.
At the entrance of the Public Security Bureau, the bureau chief saw Staff Officer Wang off.
"Old Wang, you should pass on a message to Chief Li about this! Tell him to meet with Secretary Lin and clarify things. If Secretary Lin agrees, we'll release him immediately, okay? It's not appropriate for us to release him if the plaintiff doesn't withdraw the case..."
Staff Officer Wang's legs were almost broken from running around all afternoon, especially after he went to see Uncle Wang lying in the hospital bed... he was almost furious.
Two toilet cleaners, bruised and battered, ran home, only to have a bunch of idiots nearly beat them to death. Are they all pig-brains?
The reason Lin Chen personally came to watch the battle last night was because that old codger, Master Wang, still had some use to him. Now that he's on his last breath, you guys figure it out!
If there's no explanation or adequate compensation, no one can escape responsibility. The elderly man in the courtyard has a duty to pursue accountability on his behalf…
"I'll go tell the commander right now, this is a complete disaster!"
After leaving in a hurry, Staff Officer Wang cursed inwardly.
The fact that the Public Security Bureau hasn't interrogated District Chief Song yet is giving both parties time to mediate. If they do interrogate him, the next person they'll arrest is him.
When Staff Officer Wang was brought in for questioning, the truth would be laid bare. Although these people were stubborn, they would all obediently confess under Lin Chen's interrogation…
Staff Officer Wang arrived at the Li family's house soon. The man hadn't been rescued yet, and the old couple were so angry that they didn't eat dinner.
"Commander Li, don't worry. Even if Old Song implicates me, I won't involve you. I did this on my own initiative. I admit it!"
It was this guy who did it on his own initiative, and the Li family really didn't interfere. But now the Li family can't just walk away. If they don't care now, once word gets out, everyone will be criticizing the Li family behind their backs.
"Comrade Juemin, don't worry, this matter started because of my family's Yuanchao. I won't let you take the blame. I'm going to the leader right now. We can't command the Xicheng District Public Security Bureau, but surely the old leader can!"
Commander Li is still not thinking about how to reconcile with Secretary Lin, but rather about settling things with his old superior.
The Li family believed that as long as the old leader intervened, Lin Chen would naturally be able to turn a big problem into a small one, and a small problem into nothing.
Upon hearing that the Li family wanted to involve their former superior, Staff Officer Wang felt more confident. He didn't tell them about the police chief's warning...
And so the two of them rushed off to the old commander's residence without stopping.
The West District was quite busy that night, but Secretary Lin wasn't going to waste his time with them.
eight pm
Lin Chen has already returned to Nanzhu Hutong... Jin Canlan is talking to Qin Huairu and Bai Ling about dinner tonight.
Lin Chen, meanwhile, was holding one of the little ones in each arm, amusing himself. The two little ones couldn't do anything yet, but Lin Chen was still holding them with great enjoyment…
"You guys should go quickly! Your sister Huairu and I can't help you anyway. Go find Manning and the others. Don't keep us from resting..."
Now that the child has been held and seen by people, Lin Chen and Jin Canlan have been kicked out of Nanzhu Hutong. As for where the two of them go, that's none of Qin Huairu's concern.
In early April, the temperature in Beijing was pleasant, and Lin Chen had a bold idea.
Jin Canlan's nickname is Jin Dadan (meaning "bold and daring"), so she was naturally unafraid when Lin Chen wanted to take her to see the stars.
"How about we go home and see if Manning is asleep? If not, how about we take her for a drive?"
Without hesitation, the couple stepped on the gas and headed straight for Cangnan Hutong...
As for the Li family in Xicheng District, who went to the old leader late at night to ask for help, they were naturally scolded.
As for why they were scolded, it's because Xihuatang had just made a phone call.
Although Lin Chen didn't say it explicitly, those in positions of power aren't fools! They can grasp the whole picture from just the slightest clue.
Deputy District Chief Song is Staff Officer Wang's brother-in-law, and Staff Officer Wang is from the Li family. The Li family, in turn, were the old commander's soldiers…
The fact that Lin Chen was busy with hospital matters for another day was enough to suggest that the root of the problem likely lay with the Li family.
The two men slunk away after being given a good scolding by the old commander.
"Don't worry, Lao Wang, I'll remember this as something I owe you!"
Now that Staff Officer Wang has failed in his duties, what can he say? This matter can at most end with him. If it doesn't stop, everyone will suffer…
"Don't worry, Commander, I know what to do."
Staff Officer Wang had originally planned to curry favor with the Li family and, through their connections, perhaps even secure a division commander position. Now, that's out of the question; he's not only unlikely to become a division commander, but he's also facing demotion.
Lin Chen hadn't originally intended to arrest Lao Li, since that was impossible anyway.
But if he doesn't show up, then he'll have no choice but to leave Beijing! As for when he'll return, Lin Chen can only give him four words: "A long way off."
Xicheng District Public Security Bureau
Staff Officer Wang came to turn himself in at 10 p.m., taking all the blame.
The reason, of course, was that Yan Bugui and his gang were helping their own children bully the kids in the naval compound, and he couldn't stand it, so he hired someone to teach them a lesson.
All compensation due should be paid, and apologies should be issued where appropriate.
However, just as Lin Chen had predicted, the Li family went into hiding.
Following Staff Officer Wang's surrender, the instigators of the other two groups also surrendered themselves in the middle of the night.
Their reasons were the same as Staff Officer Wang's; after all, they were both high-ranking officials in the naval compound.
The courtyard house was only able to get away with this because Lin Chen was in charge; otherwise, even if they were beaten to death, no cadre at the regimental level would have come to apologize to them.
Overnight, news spread that the Li family had lost three of their subordinates, and Li Yuanchao was dragged out of bed and severely beaten by his father in the middle of the night. The belt almost broke... This broke Li's mother's heart!
……
Rolling mill
a new day
Secretary Wan arrived at Lin Chen's office early in the morning...
Now the naval compound has also turned to Lao Wan for help, wanting to invite Lin Chen to dinner.
"Secretary Lin, what do you think of this dinner party?"
Lin Chen naturally wouldn't eat with Staff Officer Wang and the others; he was waiting for the Li family, not them.
"Secretary Wan, since they've agreed to compensate for the medical expenses and apologize, let's just let it go! I won't drink the wine. You just go through the motions and say I'm on a business trip to Tianjin Port today and not in Beijing."
Lin Chen didn't want to go, and Secretary Wan couldn't force him to go either; those three guys really weren't qualified to invite Lin Chen for drinks.
"Alright, I'll go and deal with them. Or you can take a few days off; there's nothing much going on at the steel mill these days anyway."
Lin Chen certainly wanted to rest for a few days; he wasn't really here to work. Otherwise, what would be the point of having all of you?
“That’s fine. Comrade Qin Huairu has been complaining these past few days about not getting enough rest while taking care of the baby. I’ll come back to work after she’s finished her postpartum period. Just send someone to let me know if anything comes up.”
