Fang Ya carried the gift bag and walked into the office building.
Before she reached her office, she bumped into Sister Zhai.
Fang Ya was stunned for a moment, but she still nodded at her.
Sister Zhai snorted, turned her head, and left without paying any attention to Fang Ya.
Fang Ya stood where she was and smiled bitterly.
When she opened the door and walked into the office, Fang Ya realized that the files that were piled on the floor the day before seemed to have been flipped over.
Although the files had been tampered with, they were still neatly arranged. It was just that the way they were arranged was not quite the same as when she had left them.
Fang Ya carefully counted the number of files, and it was exactly the same.
After putting away the notebook, Fang Ya planned to tidy up the office first.
Just as she was tidying up, Chen Hong walked in. “Fang Ya, you’ll have to accompany the secretary out today. Tidy up first, then go downstairs. I’ll wait for you in the car.”
Fang Ya listened to Chen Hong’s words in a daze. After a moment, she replied, “Oh! Okay!”
Fang Ya did not know what she needed to prepare to accompany him, nor did she know what she needed to do to accompany him today.
After bringing her pen and notebook, Fang Ya rushed downstairs.
Just as she reached downstairs, Fang Ya saw a black official car parked at the entrance.
Chen Hong rolled down the window and said to Fang Ya, “Get in the car! I’ll send you there!”
Fang Ya opened the door of the passenger seat and sat inside. She turned around to look, but did not find Nie Jun.
“Where’s Secretary Nie?” Fang Ya asked, somewhat puzzled.
Chen Hong sighed and said, “You’ll know in a while.”
Fang Ya frowned slightly, not knowing what had happened.
The car drove all the way out of the district government compound, heading towards the city center.
Fang Ya stared at the road ahead. For some reason, she was inexplicably nervous.
As the car gradually headed toward the city center hospital, Fang Ya’s nervousness only grew.
She turned to look at Chen Hong. “What happened to Secretary Nie?”
Chen Hong finally spoke the truth. “Secretary Nie was stabbed yesterday.”
“Stabbed?” Fang Ya was even more surprised. “But there was no news…”
Chen Hong nodded and said, “The secretary wouldn’t allow it to be leaked. He said that there might be a follow-up on this matter.”
Fang Ya’s brows furrowed tightly, and her hands unconsciously twisted together.
Chen Hong could feel Fang Ya’s nervousness, so he comforted her. “Don’t be afraid! It won’t hurt you!”
Fang Ya shook her head and said, “It’s not because of this! It’s because…”
Fang Ya hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to describe the uneasiness in her heart.
Although many corrupt officials had been arrested in this bribery case, it was said that they had also lost a few cadres.
Fang Ya was very afraid that Nie Jun would be one of these few cadres!
Because she did not pay particular attention to the matter of the fallen names, Fang Ya was not even sure how many were lost!
The car drove all the way to the parking lot of the downtown hospital.
Fang Ya got out of the car and waited for Chen Hong to go upstairs with her.
At that moment, a sharp voice sounded behind Fang Ya. “Why isn’t that old fart dead yet!”
Fang Ya frowned slightly but did not address it. She had more important business to attend to than some empty complainant.
“I heard that Nie was only stabbed three times! It’s really unpleasant!” Another somewhat hoarse voice said.
Hearing that, Fang Ya immediately stopped in her tracks.
Chen Hong locked the car and walked over, only to find Fang Ya standing still.
“Let’s Go!” Chen Hong said to Fang Ya.
Fang Ya quickly made a “hush” gesture, asking Chen Hong not to speak.
The sharp voice from before spoke again, “Why don’t we go and give him a few more stabs?”
“I think we can do it! Let’s do it tonight! Help that old fellow into his grave!” The hoarse voice echoed.
Fang Ya and Chen Hong looked at each other, and the two of them walked towards the direction where the voice came from.
However, when the two of them walked over, only a few cigarette butts were left on the ground.
Fang Ya glanced at Chen Hong and said, “No one knows about the secretary’s injury?”
Chen Hong nodded heavily. “Not publicly, no. No one has announced it to the public.”
“Then these people should be in cahoots with the person who hurt him!” Fang Ya said confidently.
Chen Hong felt the same and asked, “What do you think we should do?”
Fang Ya thought for a moment and said, “Get more men here! We must not let them hurt the secretary.”
“but…” Chen Hong seemed to be a little hesitant.
Fang Ya turned around and walked towards the hospital building. “Let’s go and see the secretary first!”
Chen Hong looked at Fang Ya’s back.. For some reason, he felt that Fang Ya was trustworthy!
