Chapter 288 Just in Time to Let Go
Don’t want to go back to being a supervisor?
Niu Jun and Zhao Hu opened their eyes wide, their faces full of disbelief. Their first reaction was even to wonder if they had heard wrongly or misunderstood. Otherwise, how could someone give up his good position as a supervisor and just lie down?
They also thought that Lu An was angry or thought there was no hope for him to go back.
Niu Jun assured Lu An that based on his understanding of officials like Ren Xianping, as long as Lu An showed enough attitude, they would definitely let him go back.
"I bet that even if Zhang Jingyang actively prepares the report documents, Secretary Ren will definitely suppress it and not report it until the case is over!"
"After all, if he really reports the results of your handling, Lu An, he will also have to bear a lot of pressure."
"But Secretary Ren is the leader after all, and you have to give him a way out."
Zhao Hu persuaded from the perspective of the case.
"Lu An, you have finally caught Lu Zhenting, the key suspect. If you are excluded now, wouldn't it be like giving away the credit to someone else?"
Lu An once again signaled for them to be quiet.
Lu Anxian explained seriously that he was not upset: "I am already such an adult, and I am participating in the central supervision group. Why should I be upset here? After careful consideration, I decided that it is best for me to withdraw now!"
Niu Jun and Zhao Hu looked confused. How could it be appropriate for them to give the credit to others after they had finally made a breakthrough?
"I know you don't understand, but before I answer, I want to ask about today's meeting."
Lu An got straight to the point: "From what you said just now, they didn't release Lu Zhenting, right?"
Although they didn't understand what Lu An was going to do, Niu Jun and Zhao Hu still told Lu An everything that happened in the meeting.
The meeting had two main points. The first was to address the discipline issues that the supervision team had allowed.
This is not important. What is important is the second point about how Lu Zhenting was handled.
Ren Xianping criticized Lu An's arbitrary method of arresting people, but then demanded a breakthrough in targeting Lu Zhenting.
"Secretary Ren has issued an order to start interrogating Lu Zhenting in the afternoon. We will not rest at night. Prepare several teams to take turns to attack. We must also break through Lu Zhenting."
Niu Jun told Lu An that it was not difficult to see from this point that Ren Xianping was also capable and knew what was good and what was bad, and he knew that Lu Zhenting was a real problematic person.
"So if he really defeats Lu Zhenting, all the credit will become theirs. By then, Lu An, you won't even be able to get a sip of soup!" Niu Jun said anxiously.
Zhao Hu also said that they had come all the way from Jianghuai to Lingnan and could not go back empty-handed.
Compared to the two people's eagerness, Lu An remained calm and asked them, "So this is all you saw?"
Niu Jun and Zhao Hu were both confused and didn't understand what was going on.
Lu An could only make his words clearer: "You guys! You've all been blinded by utilitarianism. Have you all forgotten how Secretary Ren criticized me today?"
Seeing that the two still didn't get the point, Lu An could only continue: "You forgot that Secretary Ren said that Lu Zhenting is a state-level official. Arresting him casually is absurd and lawless!"
"He also said that even when dealing with a county-level official, one must be very careful and communicate with the local party committee. So now that the director-level general manager of Wushan Company has been arrested, can this be simple?"
Therefore, the supervision team will inevitably be under pressure from all sides.
It’s just that in the past this pressure would be directed at Lu An, who was the one who arrested people, but now Ren Xianping has taken over the baton, and that person is now his.
However, Niu Jun and Zhao Hu both shook their heads, thinking that he was the secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the head of the supervision team after all, and he should not be that scared.
Lu An didn't think so: "Don't forget that this smuggling case involves more than just Lu Zhenting. Others will definitely put pressure on Ren Xianping."
Lu An emphasized: "Especially Secretary Yang Shifeng who gave us a show of strength."
Although Ren Xianping is the deputy secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and is investigating the case on behalf of the central government, Yang Shifeng is a local tyrant. Although he is of a lower rank than Ren Xianping, he can represent the Lingnan Provincial Party Committee after all. Ren Xianping still has to consider the political impact to some extent.
And the most important point that no one knows is that they have no evidence against Lu Zhenting, not even any news. Lu An arrested him entirely based on his solid memory of his previous life.
Originally, Lu An planned to arrest the person first and then collect evidence through interrogation. Now that Ren Xianping wants to reap the benefits, you might as well kick the ball to him.
Thinking of this, Lu An stretched lazily with great pleasure.
"Originally, I was supposed to figure out how to shoulder all the pressure from now on, but now that our team leader Ren and Comrade Jing Yang have volunteered, I'll just leave it to them!"
Lu An then said confidently: "I can tell you responsibly that this peach of mine is not easy to pick!"
Lu An thought for a moment and said, "It has been a day and a night since we controlled Lu Zhenting. Mr. Lu suddenly disappeared. Those people must have received the news, right?"
It seems like a prophecy coming true.
Almost as soon as Lu An uttered the last word, someone slammed the door.
Then an angry voice came: "Lu An, open the door, I am Yang Shifeng."
Lu An clapped his hands vigorously and said, "Good timing! Zhao Hu, go open the door for our beloved Secretary Yang right away!"
Zhao Hu had a confused look on his face; it was obvious that the plot was progressing too fast and his brain was overloaded.
However, he still followed Lu An's order and opened the door for Yang Shifeng outside.
"Lu An, you are so bold. Do you really think you can act so recklessly just because you are a supervisor?"
As soon as the door opened, Yang Shifeng's roar was heard, and the anger in his words soared to the sky.
Yang Shifeng entered the room and pushed Zhao Hu away without saying a word. He went straight into the room to ask Lu An for an explanation.
But Lu An was faster than him.
There was a wailing sound, and Lu An rushed towards Yang Shifeng: "Secretary Yang, you have to make the decision for me!"
Just kidding, in this situation, the initiative must be in your own hands!
