Return to Splendid

Chapter 249 Buying out seniority

The operation lasted for nearly three hours. The doctor conveyed the news that his life was saved, but one of his legs might not be saved. He would wait for his body to recover and strengthen before undergoing a second operation.Two months of lying on the hospital bed and three months of rehabilitation treatment, which takes half a year.From now on, he can't be allowed to go back to his front-line position. He should find a more leisurely job in the agency.

For Xing Yi, this news is a little consolation for the hurt caused by deep regret.

After being in coma for two days and two nights, I woke up and saw Xing Yi, sitting beside the hospital bed dozing off. Kang Enpei moved a little, and he immediately opened his eyes wide and raised his head.

"How?" he asked.

"Not dead?" Kang Enpei's voice was very weak.

"You can't die. The doctor did his best to operate on you and gave you three blood transfusions. Your life was saved."

"Thank you."

"I didn't perform the surgery on you, so why are you thanking me?"

"You brought me good news."

"Talk less, close your eyes and rest. That's what the doctor said."

"What about you?"

"I am fine."

The Jinxiu County Public Security Bureau arrived in a car. Director Yan Lixin was in the car, and also came a deputy director named Qu.Yan Lixin introduced Xing Yi to Deputy Director Qu, and told how a boy in Zhumatai Village, Zhao Jiayan wanted to be kidnapped that year, and how Xing Yi actively helped and supported the case handling team and successfully rescued the child.

Deputy Director Qu was very moved. He held Xing Yi's hand tightly and expressed his gratitude in the mountains. He said that if people like you support our public security work, the safety construction work will proceed smoothly without fruitful results.

Then they completed the delivery procedures with the hospital and took Kang Enpei back.

There was still room in the car, so Kang Enpei asked to let Xing Yi ride with him, and Deputy Director Qu agreed.

Back in Jinxiu, Xing Yi took Kang Enpei to the county hospital and admitted him to the special care ward.

Xing Yi went home, told Ni Shuzhen about the situation, went upstairs to catch a pigeon, slaughtered it and gave it to Ni Shuzhen for further processing.

Kang Enpei's father and lover were notified and rushed over.Deputy Director Qu comforted them for a while and told them that the bureau had decided to do its best to treat Director Kang and let him recover as soon as possible.

Kang's father had a dull expression and didn't speak much. He silently stood by the hospital bed and stared at the bandages on his son's body.His wife was also very honest. Deputy Director Qu asked her if she had any requests, but she had nothing to say except thank you.

Xing Yi brought pigeon soup to the hospital and met Deputy Director Qu again. There were three people with him, all in formal attire.

Deputy Director Qu introduced Xing Yi to meet them. Two of them were from the region. After shaking hands with Xing Yi, he said, "If you don't mind, let's talk?"

If it's not convenient in the ward, I go to the doctor's lounge, which has a bed, a table, and four chairs.

After Deputy Director Qu led them in, he said, "Xiao Shang and I were talking to Director Kang in the ward."

After saying that, he exited and closed the door gently.

The younger of the two police officers sat at the end of the table, opened his bag, took out the record book and laid it out.

The older man asked Xing Yi to sit on the other side, while he himself sat on the bed.

Seeing this posture, Xing Yi paused in his heart and said, "What, is this going to be a subpoena?"

The older police officer smiled and said, "Aren't you sensitive? That doesn't count. We just want to talk to you."

Xing Yi frowned: "If we want to talk, why don't we go back to the ward together?"

"It's nice here. It's quiet and undisturbed. You can talk freely."

"I still have something to do."

"You see, in our line of work, it's hard to communicate with people. You'll be misunderstood no matter what you talk about, and there's nothing we can do about it. Again, long live understanding. I won't delay you for a long time. I just want to find you. Understand the situation."

"Then what are we going to talk about?" Xing Yi asked.

The older one glanced at the younger one, who opened the notebook. His task was to record, while the older one was in charge of the conversation.

"Okay, can you tell me your name, your current job position, and where you live?"

Isn't this what it is?Xing Yi was thinking in his heart, he couldn't have met here. He just sat down and chatted casually. Absolutely not. There must be some problem, and it was from the region. He had a big background.

I felt a little uneasy, but I still introduced myself very calmly: my surname is Xing, my name is Yi, Xing from Xingtai, Yi from Chen Yi, I live next to the Dongmenpo Seed Company warehouse in Chengguan Town, Jinxiu County.The job is in the village, and the person in charge of the Xiushui Village Economic and Social Development Committee is appointed by the township.

The older police officer said: "Generally, villages are called village branch committees or village committees. I have never heard of such a long list of names."

He said: "It's a special situation. Because I was sent to the village by the county to provide poverty alleviation. To put it bluntly, I am not a local who grew up in the village."

"Weren't you at the hydropower plant before?"

"Yes."

"How did you leave?"

"Can you not answer?"

"Ah, just ask, you don't mind. Okay, let's not talk about this. I want to ask, how did you and Kang Enpei know each other?"

It can be said that it is legitimate for me to deal with one of your own people.

Xing Yi cleared his throat and remembered the missing person notice he saw at the station. At the hotel, the boss received a call from Director Kang, and he had his first impression.I went to the village to help work and got to know several teachers. We all went hiking together to investigate the natural environment. Then a colleague broke his stomach after eating improperly, so he went to the health center to look for medicine. No one was on duty, so he got in through the window. He was mistaken for theft and was arrested. I called the police station to inquire. Director Kang just came back from handling a case. This was the first time they met. Although it was the first time, I was attracted by his capable and realistic style.Later, while handling cases of illegal logging and arson in forest farms and cases of abducted children, I got to know him better and was moved by his resolute, conscientious and pioneering style.The relationship became deeper and deeper, as I said.

The elderly police officer was satisfied with this briefing. It was easy to see from the way he nodded from time to time and looked at the recorder.

"Did you make an appointment in advance to meet Kang Enpei in the countryside this time?"

"what?"

"Kang Enpei was unfortunately injured while handling the case. How did you know?"

"We only found out when we arrived at the gate of the village."

"When did you arrive?"

"It was almost dawn then."

"What did you see then?"

"I saw a group of people carrying Director Kang out of the village to take him to the hospital."

"Are you just going to join in?"

"Yes, time is pressing and there is no need to delay."

"When did you set off?"

"night."

"Leaving the county at night?"

"Yes."

"Why don't you move during the day?"

"It's daytime, I couldn't find the car."

"It's okay to go the next day."

"It will be too late to go the next day."

"Why is it too late?"
