Rebirth of Corrupt Officials

Chapter 24 - I



No one could have imagined that the death of a small figure like Uncle Qiu would bring huge changes to the political situation in Chengzhou. Even Jiang Xiaochuan himself was not mentally prepared in advance.

Because Uncle Qiu had an accident when it shouldn’t have happened. People from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection were still inspecting the work of the municipal committee and municipal government.

Uncle Qiu was once a petitioner, but now he died inexplicably. The discipline inspection workers of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection were paying close attention to the whole matter, especially Lian Cheng.

So, when he went back that night, Jiang Xiaochuan received a call from Lian Cheng.

When he picked up the phone, he was still wondering whether Lian Cheng had received his self-examination letter.

Xue Yan was still handling the funeral affairs for Uncle Qiu and had many things to be busy with.

Jiang Xiaochuan didn’t mind that his affairs were postponed. Thinking of the self-examination letter was actually just a subconscious reaction.

“Mayor Jiang, good evening.”

“Deputy Director, what’s the matter?” Jiang Xiaochuan actually guessed what he was going to ask. What happened today seemed small, but its impact was huge.

Many people were hiding aside and waiting to look at his downfall.

Yet the more others wanted to see his downfall, the less he would let them. To put it bluntly, Jiang Xiaochuan was just a stubborn person. When he didn’t understand certain things clearly, he could just get by in a daze.

But if he really understood it, he would go all out without hesitation, even though he would encounter obstacles on the way. Difficulties and obstacles might make him confused, but he would not succumb to the monsters and demons that had not yet shown their faces because of such difficulties.

Lian Cheng didn’t know what he was thinking. It was very quiet over there. Jiang Xiaochuan could even hear the small sound of static electricity. On such a night, the silence was so quiet that it made people’s hearts beat faster.

Lian Cheng’s voice was still so calm: “I just met Mayor Jiang in the morning, and this happened in the afternoon. Don’t you think it’s a coincidence?”

They all knew what “this” was referring to.

Jiang Xiaochuan was silent for a while, opened the curtains of his room, looked at the night scene outside, and said, “I haven’t told anyone the news. As for the reason – I think you will know it in the future.”

Lian Cheng still hadn’t received that self-examination letter?

Just when Jiang Xiaochuan was thinking this, Lian Cheng said: “I know it is unlikely that you will tell some people this news, because I received your self-examination letter. But I cannot rule out the possibility that you have told these things to close people…”

Jiang Xiaochuan thought about it carefully and then shook his head: “Not to mention the private meeting between you and me, or the matter of the self-examination letter. No one except Xue Yan knew about it.”

So Lian Cheng was silent for a while, if it weren’t for Jiang Xiaochuan, if there was a problem with the news on his side, the whole thing would be even more terrifying.

After all, the officials were not brainless. They were able to get to this point and hide themselves well, which proved that their IQs were not low. However, it was undoubtedly not good for them to cause such a thing while Lian Cheng was still there.

The whole thing had nothing to do with Jiang Xiaochuan, but they actually trying to do something out of blue.

So, for what purpose did they use this crazy method to kill Uncle Qiu?

Such an action would clearly attract the attention of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

Was it because someone deliberately trying to attract the attention of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, or was it because of something important that mysteriously disappeared.

Lian Cheng pinched his eyebrows.

Thinking of Jiang Xiaochuan’s self-examination letter, he didn’t expect that the people below could have such courage. Everyone knew, the courage of corrupt officials was all reflected in the word “greed”.

They had the courage to immigrate all their wives and children, and they also had the courage to flee abroad with huge sums of money after there was an irreparable deficit in the financial statements

This kind of thing had happened many times over the years, and Lian Cheng himself was not surprised. And suddenly he received a self-examination letter. This ancient thing that was about to disappear gave him a wonderful sense of memory at that time.

He found that he had a very strange liking for Jiang Xiaochuan.

Jiang Xiaochuan was obviously so young, but when he wrote, he had the same point and click as someone who had been in officialdom for a long time, and there was a seriousness between the lines that made people uncomfortable. Like a fresh breath in this corrupt world.

The deputy mayor of Chengzhou City, Jiang Xiaochuan, decided to start with this self-examination letter to clean himself up.

Lian Cheng asked Jiang Xiaochuan: “Is Xue Yan completely credible?”

Was it credible? Xue Yan… of course was completely trustworthy…

Jiang Xiaochuan had a hint of bitterness on his lips and said to Lian Cheng in a very strange tone: “Deputy Director, do you believe it or not, if I don’t hand over this self-examination letter? I would likely face prosecution from Xue Yan in the future – this person, how should I say, is full of passion, and I admire him very much.”

Lian Cheng over there actually chuckled, and reminded: “Mayor Jiang, he is just a small civil servant in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Municipal Party Committee now. You are the deputy mayor. It may be difficult for him to report you.”

“Who can tell clearly about things in this world?” Jiang Xiaochuan looked outside with a slightly cold expression. There were blue street lights and red slogans under the street lights. He quietly closed the curtains, sat down at his desk, and turned on the desk lamp.

“You can’t underestimate everyone you see now, because I don’t have the ability to read minds and can’t know what everyone is thinking.”

After Jiang Xiaochuan finished speaking, he didn’t know what to say.

If someone told Jiang Xiaochuan in his previous life, he would be brought down by a small discipline inspection worker from the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection. He would chuckle and walk right past you. But if someone told him this now, he would only smile at them.

After a while, Jiang Xiaochuan said: “You are right.”

But he couldn’t explain more to Lian Cheng. Should he tell Lian Cheng that he was actually reborn person? And that the reason why he fell from power in his previous life was Xue Yan in the first place? Sometimes the power of hatred was terrible.

But Jiang Xiaochuan didn’t expect that Lian Cheng would refute him: “No, Mayor Jiang, you are wrong.”

A person like Lian Cheng, who was able to thrive even in the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, actually said such a straightforward sentence, which made Jiang Xiaochuan a little agitated.

He subconsciously looked at his cell phone, and it was indeed Lian Cheng’s contact information – he didn’t need to make a secret phone call, because even if there was monitoring, the confidentiality level of Lian Cheng was absolutely high.

The person who said that just now was really Lian Cheng.

He heard the voice on the receiver pause for a moment, and then continued: “There are no bones in the egg, and no one else can pick it out no matter how.”

If Jiang Xiaochuan himself was truly clean, he would not be afraid of being smeared.

Jiang Xiaochuan suddenly felt that he could only respond in silence.

He had never encountered such a spicy Lian Cheng before. It turned out that the people who talked and laughed with him warmly in prison could also talk to him in this way. But he was unable to refute, that was indeed the case.

If Jiang Xiaochuan himself had no problem, Xue Yan would not find anything wrong no matter how much he checked.
