Chen Mingde had only been in Dong Hua for more than half a year. His family stayed in the provincial capital and did not follow him. He lived in South Park. Shen Huai was afraid that Chen Mingde would keep a close eye on him, so he did not live in South Park. Instead, he " worked hard " and lived in the municipal government dormitory...
Two police officers from the city police station stood at the crossing. Two doctors in white coats stood in the lobby, as well as two young girls who were specially assigned to guard Building No. 6 by the Nanyuan Hotel. They had not experienced much, but their faces were pale, as if they were frightened by what had happened.
Shen Huai was also very shocked in his heart. He thought to himself,"A leaky house comes with a rainy night" was probably referring to his current situation.
He had just beaten up Ge Yongqiu's brother-in-law, Zhou Dazui, in the morning. He had relied on Chen Mingde's support to force Ge Yongqiu and his brother-in-law to swallow their anger. He did not expect Chen Mingde, who could support him, to die of illness in the afternoon…
The heavens were tormenting people too much!
Shen Huai followed Zhou Yu upstairs, and he didn't have the mood to look at her butt that was round from her tight pants when she lifted her feet.
The living room was on the second floor. Through the half-open door, Chen Mingde could be seen lying upright on the bed in the bedroom. The sheet had covered his face. He was indeed dead.
At this moment, Shen Huai did not have any feelings for Chen Mingde, but when he saw the situation in front of him, he was still very shocked.
Yesterday morning, Chen Mingde had called to ask about his injury. He did not expect that it would be his turn to lie upright in bed today. Life was really unpredictable.
Wu Haifeng, the secretary of the municipal party committee, stood in the living room outside with his hands on his hips. His face was full of dark clouds, and he looked like a storm was coming. It made people subconsciously want to avoid him.
Ge Yongqiu, Peng Yong, the manager of the South Park Hotel, and the leading doctor who had rushed to the emergency room were all standing there, reporting the situation to Wu Haifeng.
"How do you take care of the leader's life? Chief Chen came back to rest at noon. How can you not care about him? How am I supposed to explain this to the province?”
Wu Haifeng's voice was not loud, but it was like a low-pressure dark cloud that contained a weak thunder. When he spoke, his fingers almost poked Ge Yongqiu and Peng Yong's faces.
" Also, who entered and left Building No. 6 in the afternoon? You must report truthfully without any hesitation…"
Ge Yongqiu and Peng Yong were the deputy directors of the municipal government's reception office. Naturally, they were the first to be held accountable for such a major incident.
Leaders nowadays had bad tempers, and Wu Haifeng rarely showed mercy when he lectured people.
"When Chief Chen came back, he specifically instructed that no one was allowed to hit him."
Peng Yong's expression was very bad. Although he was usually arrogant and had prepared some excuses, he could not help but tremble in fear when he replied in front of the furious big boss.
"At two o'clock in the afternoon, I didn't see Chen Shi grow out, so I came over to take a look. It's my fault. Secretary Wu, you should scold me however you want. It's just that no one expected such a thing to happen. No one mentioned that Chen Shi had a heart disease before. No one really cared if anyone had entered or left Building No. 6 at noon. The two staff members in charge of Building No. 6 on the day shift were distracted. When they heard Chief Chen's instructions, they ran out and weren't in Building No. 6 for a while…"
"What nonsense! You guys first control the news and don't let it spread. Don't let anyone outside gossip." Wu Haifeng scolded angrily. He rested his chin on his hand and didn't say anything else.
The conversation between the Municipal Party Secretary and Peng Yong made Shen Huai sense something fishy.
He was no longer the Shen Huai from before. He had been glorious in the city steel mill and had been stepped on by others for a few years. In just a few years, he had experienced a huge gap in his life, which made him think about life more deeply than ordinary people. He could see the problem much more thoroughly than ordinary people.
Shen Huai and Zhou Yu stood at the door. Seeing that no one was looking at him, as if they did not notice his existence, he leaned sideways into the bedroom and lifted the corner of the sheet to look at Chen Mingde's body.
At first glance, Shen Huai was shocked." Chen Mingde's face was pale, and he was already dead. He was not wearing a single piece of clothing…
Shen Huai stood there in shock, thinking," A member of the Municipal Party Committee, a deputy chief, naked and sick in a hotel room. What kind of shocking news and political event is this for Donghua City?!"
No wonder Wu Haifeng asked with a gloomy face, who had entered and left Building 6 before this.
"Shen Huai, what are you going in for?" Wu Haifeng only noticed Shen Huai entering the bedroom at this time. He suddenly shouted at him sharply and asked him to come out.
Shen Huai could feel Wu Haifeng's strong distrust of him. Everyone's eyes were on him, and his face was burning. However, before he left the room, he noticed a small puddle of water in the corner of the shower room. The floor was also a little wet. Could it be that Chen Mingde had a heart attack while showering?
Chen Mingde had heart disease and a bad habit of taking cold showers. The doctor had warned him that cold showers could irritate his heart, but he did not care. If there were no other doubts, this would undoubtedly explain why Chen Mingde died naked in the room.
Speaking of which, it was also Shen Huai, this secretary, who did not do his job properly before.
He did not remind Chen Mingde to get rid of the habit of showering in cold weather, nor did he report Chen Mingde's heart disease to the city, nor did he ask Nan Yuan to prepare hot water for Building No. 6 at any time...
However, when Shen Huai walked out of the bedroom, he glanced at the bathroom. It was quite tidy inside, and he was puzzled again. Could it be that he really died on a woman's belly?
It was impossible. He had been in Dong Hua with Chen Mingde for more than half a year, but he had never seen Chen Mingde hook up with any woman! Could it be that Chen Mingde felt that he was unreliable and was hiding something from him?
*************
"Since you were injured in the city steel mill a few days ago, you should recuperate well. Don't get involved in the funeral of Chief Chen. The city will send someone to take care of it…"
As a provincial cadre, Chen Mingde died suddenly due to illness, and the cause of death was somewhat strange. The handling of the matter after his death was naturally not simple. The province would also send people to Donghua as soon as possible.
As Chen Mingde's secretary, Shen Huai should be involved in this matter. However, Wu Haifeng had heard about Shen Huai's style in the province and later in Dong Hua. He did not trust him very much and immediately kicked him out.
He had been through a lot in the past two days, which made Shen Huai's nerves grow stronger. After hearing Wu Haifeng's words, he walked out without saying a word.
When he went downstairs, Zhou Yu glanced over, and there was a gloating expression hidden in his bright eyes.
This damned woman! Shen Huai cursed in his heart. When he went downstairs, he deliberately slowed down his steps.
After a while, she heard Zhou Yu's voice," Maybe Boss Chen had a heart attack while he was taking a shower and wanted to go back to his room to get some medicine, but he didn't have time…"
"The sixth building doesn't provide hot water in the afternoon. Chief Chen knows about this. He even raised this issue to the reception twice." I was planning to give the sixth building its own solar energy in two days, but I didn't expect…" Peng Yong deliberately lowered his voice, but Shen Huai deliberately stood in the stairwell with his body bent and didn't go down, so he still heard Peng Yong's words clearly.
Shen Huai was shocked. Peng Yong's words made him suspicious.
If Chen Mingde really had a heart attack and died suddenly, then it would undoubtedly be a beneficial explanation for everyone if he had a heart attack while taking a shower naked.
Peng Yong was the first to enter the room. Even if he did not see the puddle of water on the edge of the shower room's outer wall, he should not be in a hurry to deny the possibility that Chen Mingde had an attack during the shower, right?
Only Zhou Yu and Peng Yong were talking in the room, and the conversation stopped after a few simple sentences. Wu Haifeng, Ge Yongqiu, and the others remained silent, as if a storm was about to fall…
If it was the previous Shen Huai, he would definitely not be able to hear anything from the conversation between Zhou Yu and Peng Yong. However, for the current Shen Huai, after hearing a few sentences from upstairs, he could already hear enough doubts.
Chen Mingde died of a heart attack in his room naked. There were many explanations.
There were two possibilities. One was that he fell ill in the shower and died suddenly before he could get the medicine. The other was much more ambiguous and dirty…
Even if there was no strong evidence to support the two possibilities, from the perspective of cleaning up the situation, he should try his best to lean towards the first possibility:
Chen Mingde died of a heart attack while taking a shower. Chen Mingde's family and the provincial government sent people over to hold a funeral and a memorial service according to the procedures. For Donghua, even if there would be no good results, there would not be any sequelae.
Zhou Yu did not enter the bedroom or the bathroom, but she stood outside and directly guessed that Chen Mingde might have died from a sudden illness while taking a shower. It could be said that although she was a woman, she still knew the official rules of "big things become small, small things become small, and no trouble is easily caused".
Peng Yong's intention in saying those words was too obvious. It was as if he wanted to directly deny the possibility that Chen Mingde's illness had acted up after taking a shower.
If it wasn't for the illness in the shower, why would Chen Mingde die naked in the bedroom?
This was too tempting.
Shen Huai would never believe that Peng Yong's words were purely based on facts.
As a large-scale state-owned enterprise, the city steel mill could be said to be a microcosm of contemporary officialdom. There would be open and secret struggles, and there would be mutual deception. Shen Huai had also learned enough of the sinister nature of human nature from then on. Shen Huai almost subconsciously concluded, Peng Yong said this intentionally to muddy the waters.
Why did Peng Yong want to muddy the waters?
Why did Wu Haifeng remain silent?
There was no evidence to prove that Chen Mingde's death was related to the affair. Even if Chen Mingde really died from the affair, as the secretary of the Dong Hua City Party Committee, he should have tried his best to cover it up.
If it was the heartless Shen Huai from before, Chen Mingde would have died. Since Chen Mingde was dead, he couldn't stay in Dong Hua anymore. He didn't care if Chen Mingde acted up in the shower or in a woman's belly.
Chen Mingde was the old man's secretary and could be considered an official of the Song family. If he really died in a woman's belly, it would have a negative impact on the Song family's reputation and the development of the Song family's disciples and old officials. If it was the previous Shen Huai, he would even be eager to do so.
It was just that the soul in this body had changed. At this moment, Shen Huai even hoped to have a chance to obtain the Song family's understanding. He also hoped to be able to enjoy the shade under the Song family's big tree. He could not watch the situation develop in the worst direction.
What were Wu Haifeng and Peng Yong trying to do?
Of course, they would not directly say that Chen Mingde died in a woman's belly. After all, it was unknown whether such a woman existed, and there was no strong evidence. They just had to insist that Chen Mingde died suddenly in his room in the middle of the day.
People always had the habit of speculating about others with the worst intentions. This was enough to destroy the reputation behind Chen Mingde.
However, what good would it do Peng Yong and Wu Haifeng?
