595 Chapter 551: Major News (Third update, asking for votes) _1

Nie Zhenbang's words, blunt and uncompromising, gave no face, greatly displeasing Cao Fenglin and Liang Haibo.

Just as they were about to speak, Nie Zhenbang crossed the police line himself. In these circumstances, Zhenbang was expressing his dissatisfaction. The allegations in the report, though unconfirmed, seemed credible. This was the first point.

At this moment, Nie Zhenbang's remarks were intentional, with a simple aim - to keep Zhao Zhuobin under constant pressure. Under this pressure, people like Zhao Zhuobin were bound to slip up.

The leaders of Tongping District, watching this scene, followed suit. The presence of so many officials caused the troublemakers to startle.

Among them, a punk with a crew cut, wielding a steel rod, squinted at Nie Zhenbang and his entourage, "What are you doing? This place is off-limits. No one is allowed in or out."

As soon as these words came out, the members of the Tongping District Party Committee were dumbstruck, beads of sweat trickling down their foreheads.

Cao Fenglin's face was ashen, he yelled angrily, "Zhao Zhuobin, what the hell are you doing? What is the Public Security Sub-bureau doing? Is Tongping District still under government control?"

Liang Haibo's face was grim. He turned around, motioned to the police guarding Mayor Nie's safety, and said solemnly, "Take all these people away. Thoroughly investigate. They have reached the limit, defying the government."

The saying goes, 'The master's honor is the servant's shame.' Although Mayor Nie wasn't a master, he was their superior. With something like this happening in Tongping District, wasn't it proof of the failures of the Tongping District Party Committee and District Government? This wasn't destroying their future in front of Mayor Nie, was it? At this moment, Cao Fenglin and Liang Haibo wanted to kill.

At this time, Nie Zhenbang ushered himself into the People's Hospital, the entrance of which led downhill. Below was the outpatient building, in front of it, a parking lot, which had been cleared. Hundreds of people were gathered here, a memorial hall had been set up, and mourning music was playing.

Many people were watching Nie Zhenbang and his group with hostile eyes. The outpatient building was in a sorry state, the glass sliding doors had long been shattered. The whole hall was in shambles. The floor was littered with various drugs and bloodstains. It could only be assumed that a fierce battle had taken place here when the incident occurred.

Yes, a battle. At this moment, Nie Zhenbang felt that this was the only way to describe it. The fact that a government institution could be reduced to such a state proved how defiant they were.

Nie Zhenbang's face darkened, he instructed Cao Fenglin, "From the looks of it, these people, this boss of East Stream Company, Li Dongjiang, are incredibly arrogant, on par with Lin Zhengxing."

These words made Cao Fenglin's heart tremble. The Mayor actually compared Lin Zhengxing to Li Dongjiang. What was he implying?

"Comrade Fenglin, irrespective of whether this was a medical accident, regardless of who is ultimately responsible, those who attacked others and the hospital behaved appallingly. This greatly affects the work of the majority of healthcare workers. Shall we accept such end for our efforts to save lives and heal the wounded? In any case, such an incident must be firmly prevented. Anyone who attacked, instigated the attack must be severely dealt with. Those who were injured and the damage caused must be compensated. Let's start with these tasks before proceeding to the next step," Nie Zhenbang instructed.

Turning his head, Nie Zhenbang said, "Director Jia, from the health system, get in touch with the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Don't let this precedent be set. Find Comrade Shenming and tell him I said that the Municipal Public Security Bureau and the Municipal Health Bureau should set up police stations at various medical institutions across the city. Guarantee the safety of medical staff."

Jia Ping, the Director of the Municipal Health Bureau, nodded, looking a bit agitated. Seeing the medical institutions being smashed up to this extent, he felt uncomfortable as the Director of the Health Bureau. Listening to Nie Zhenbang's words, a sense of gratitude flashed across his face, and he replied, "Mayor, thank you for your attention to and support for healthcare. I will coordinate with Director Xiao to ensure the safety of medical workers."

Having received the order, Cao Fenglin breathed a sigh of relief. At least, judging from the tone and honorifics of the Mayor, it seemed that he wasn't particularly displeased with him.

At this moment, upon notification from Tongping District Party Committee and District Government staff, Du Wei, Director of the Health Bureau, walked over with a fifty-year-old man.

Although Du Wei wasn't tall, about 1.63 meters with a heavy build, his thick eyebrows and big eyes gave off an impression of sincerity. At present, Du's complexion was a bit haggard.

It's normal to not rest well one night. Yet, Nie Zhenbang wore a gracious smile and asked, "Director Du, what seems to be the situation?"

At this point, Du Wei did not dare to be negligent. After all, Nie Zhenbang was the city government's Mayor and beside him stood the district committee secretary and the city bureau director. Du Wei promptly responded, "Mayor, it's like this. The father of Mr. Li Dongjiang, the owner of East Stream Company, suffered from lung cancer and had been staying in the District People's Hospital. The cancer cells had spread. He experienced lung failure in the early hours today and unfortunately, he didn't survive despite the resuscitation attempts."

"Mr. Li Dongjiang is now left with a debt of 250,000 in medical expenses to the District People's Hospital. After his father's death, the hospital demanded payment. There might have been some inappropriate language during this process, and as a result, Mr. Li Dongjiang gathered hundreds of people, smashed the outpatient building, set up a memorial hall, and demanded compensation from the District People's Hospital for mental distress and other costs, totalling 1.37 million."

Upon hearing these words, Nie Zhenbang's expression turned gloomy. If indeed this was true, Li Dongjiang had hit a new low in his conduct.

Nie Zhenbang suddenly seemed to understand something. According to the whistleblower's letter, Li Dongjiang was fundamentally a thug, a notorious delinquent. His character was flawed and he would stoop to any level - evident from his operation of a gambling den and laying traps for people to fall into. With this in mind, no matter how unscrupulous Li Dongjiang may seem, it all added up—he wasn't a man of quality and breeding.

Soon after, Nie Zhenbang said in a solemn tone, "Let's go and see for ourselves."

These words were also a prearranged code between Nie Zhenbang and Li Jupeng. On this visit, Nie Zhenbang's main agenda was to find Liu Mihui and understand the situation; this incidence just seemed to coincide.

Li Jupeng gave a barely noticeable nod to Nie Zhenbang and then left the crowd. However, unbeknownst to both of them, journalist Jiang Ruoxuan, who was trailing behind, picked up on this.

Seeing Li Jupeng walk away, a look of surprise crossed Jiang Ruoxuan's face. She pondered for a moment, then turned to her cameraman and said, "Xie, you take over the coverage here. I will add in the voiceovers and other elements in post-production. Capture the opening scene; I have to attend to something."

The cameraman clearly found dealing with Jiang Ruoxuan challenging and smiled wryly, "What kind of game are you playing now?"

Jiang Ruoxuan responded with a playful smirk and said mysteriously, "Xie, you don't need to worry about this, I've got it covered."

The microphone in her hand, she faced the camera and said, "Today Deputy Secretary and Mayor Nie Zhenbang come to Tongping District for inspection."

She finished the line, cut off recording, hung the microphone and her bag of interview equipment on the cameraman's body, she then departed following the direction in which Li Jupeng had left.

Some information about Liu Mihui could be found in the personnel bureau's records. Upon knowing about the situation on the previous evening, Nie Zhenbang had already asked Li Jupeng to prepare on these fronts, and it was only then that he let Li Jupeng approach Liu Mihui with absolute certainty.

In the back of the outpatient building, Li Jupeng found Liu Mihui amid the crowd. If they were at the Health Bureau, Nie Zhenbang would have had to create conditions for Li Jupeng to approach Liu Mihui personally, but here in the current setting it was far more convenient amongst a mixed crowd of knowns and unknowns, who had no idea about Li Jupeng's real identity.

In a quiet area by a flower bed, there were very few people around as most had been drawn towards the front. Li Jupeng looked at Liu Mihui and introduced himself, "Liu Mihui, allow me to introduce myself. Li Jupeng, I am the Mayor's secretary."

Upon hearing these words, Liu Mihui visibly became excited. Li Jupeng smiled and nodded in acknowledgment, then continued, "Mr. Liu Mihui, do you have any solid evidence at hand about the collusion between Li Dongjiang and Zhao Zhuobin, the chief of Tongping District's Public Security Bureau?"

However, unknown to the both of them, their discussion was overheard by Jiang Ruoxuan, who was hiding nearby in the flowerbeds. Instead of getting scared, she looked thrilled—this was breaking news material.

Li Dongjiang and Zhao Zhuobin, head of the Tongping District Police Department, were involved in corruption. What were they up to? Wasn't Li Dongjiang the same person who had just lost his father? All these threads connected swiftly in Jiang Ruoxuan's mind.

"This could potentially be big news! No wonder Mayor Nie suddenly appeared here. What if I secretly investigate this matter and expose it…" the thought excited Jiang Ruoxuan. (To be continued.
