Chu Tianshu lit a cigarette, stuffed it into Zhou Botong's mouth, and said slowly: "Zhou Botong, you are right, I am the secretary of the county party committee, and I cannot ignore party discipline and state law. You are a man, and you also know how to talk about justice.

, but it’s not worth it for me to do it for you. You shouldered the burden for others, and others didn’t take you seriously at all.”

Zhou Botong took a few puffs of cigarette vigorously, but he didn't pay much attention at first. When he heard the last sentence, he stopped smoking, breathed out a cloud of smoke, and looked at Chu Tianshu blankly.

Chu Tianshu took out his mobile phone, pulled up a picture, held it up to Zhou Botong's eyes, and said: "Zhou Botong, take a closer look, why were you arrested? Also, if they can deal with you like this, they will take good care of you in the future.

Do you have a wife or children?"

Zhou Botong's eyes widened. What he saw was the photo that Xue Jinlong sent to Chu Tianshu. The photo was the motorboat on which Zhou Botong and Hong Qigong escaped. Hearing Chu Tianshu's cold voice, Zhou Botong's eyes flashed.

His persistence suddenly gave way, and the half of the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground, and he growled: "I've been sold."

Chu Tianshu stared at him for five seconds before saying: "Zhou Botong, you should know even if I don't tell you, if you insist on refusing to explain, I'm afraid you won't survive today. If you are willing to cooperate, maybe you will not be punished to death. This

You may still have the opportunity to meet your wife and children in your lifetime. You can make up your own mind!"

Zhou Botong's face was ferocious, and the veins on his red neck were bulging. He closed his eyes and was unwilling to open them for a long time. After a minute, his Adam's apple rolled with difficulty a few times, and a huge teardrop rolled down. He spoke with a half-hoarse voice.

The voice asked: "Whatever you want to know, I will tell you everything."

Chu Tianshu nodded, lit another cigarette for him, squinted his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Okay! Only those who understand current affairs are heroes."

Opening the door of the interrogation room, Chu Tianshu saw Tao Yuming, Du Yufei, Guo Shunqiang and others guarding the door.

Tao Yuming stepped forward, turned to look at the interrogation room, and asked: "Secretary Chu, has he confessed?"

Chu Tianshu smiled lightly and said, "You continue the trial!"

Tao Yuming agreed and led Chu Tianshu outside.

Du Yufei took Guo Shunqiang into the interrogation room.

Zhou Botong spoke slowly: "I confess that it was Fu Laosan who ordered me to do it..."

A few minutes later, Tao Yuming knocked on the door of the large suite of the Petrochemical Hotel.

Fu Damu and Hu Xiaoli had already dressed and were waiting for news about Tao Yuming.

Hu Xiaoli opened the door.

When Fu Damu saw Tao Yuming's face turned pale, his heart sank and he let out a sigh.

"Boss, Zhou Botong has betrayed you." Tao Yuming took off his hat, his hair already soaked with sweat.

Hu Xiaoli's face turned pale and she quickly closed the door.

Fu Damu had long expected that such a day would come. He forced himself to calm down, took out his mobile phone and put it on the coffee table. Then he made a "shh" gesture, indicating to Tao Yuming and Hu Xiaoli to also take out their mobile phones.

Fu Damu put Tao Yuming and Hu Xiaoli's mobile phones on the coffee table, took a large black plastic bag from behind the sofa, and quietly led them out of the large suite.

Tao Yuming and Hu Xiaoli followed Fu Damu from a secret passage to a secret room in the underground garage.

"Boss, why don't you take your mobile phone?" Hu Xiaoli couldn't help but asked Fu Damu.

Fu Damu said: "They must be watching us now, and it is very likely that our mobile phones have been monitored by them. We put our mobile phones in the big suite. If they use GPS to track us, they think we are still there.

It’s upstairs.”

"Boss, you are more vigilant than me." Tao Yuming gasped for breath and was in shock, but flattering him had become a habit, so he complimented him with great admiration.

Fu Damu stared at Tao Yuming and said with a vicious look: "Old Tao, the matter has come to this, and we can only take the last step."

Tao Yuming saw that Fu Damu was very calm. He had not been the police chief for many years in vain. He quickly calmed down and asked: "Boss, do you want to call Xue Jinlong here too?"

Fu Damu shook his head and said, "No need, I suspect that Zhou Botong was arrested because he ordered the water."

"Insensible. Let me tell you, how else would Chu Tianshu and the others find clues." Tao Yuming scolded: "I have long thought that this guy is unreliable, but I didn't expect that he would actually become a traitor."

"Old Tao, the rest is up to you."

"I?"

"If you can kill Chu Tianshu, we still have a glimmer of hope."

"real?"

"Yes!" Fu Damu said: "Zhou Botong and the third child have a single line of contact, and the car accident is not related to us for the time being. After killing Chu Tianshu, the third child will bear all the charges, and the two of us still have a chance to get away with it.

.”

Tao Yuming, who had well-developed limbs and a simple mind, was now frightened. He felt that what Fu Damu said made sense, so he shouted: "Okay, boss, what do you think we should do?"

"Tomorrow the Tongtian River Bridge is closed, and Chu Tianshu is going to attend the completion inspection. Let me tell you..." Fu Damu whispered a few words into Tao Yuming's ear. Tao Yuming was a little suspicious at first, but then nodded repeatedly, and finally couldn't bear it.

He stopped and asked: "Boss, isn't Xue Jinlong finished too?"

Fu Damu's eyes were filled with anger and he said: "Old Tao, he knows too much, and it would be a disaster if he stayed!"

Tao Yuming said "Yeah" heavily.

Fu Damu said: "Old Tao, hurry up and get ready. Xiaoli and I will discuss how to deal with the third child. Oh, remember, go upstairs and take your phone away."

Tao Yuming was stunned for a moment, put on his hat, and left in a hurry.

"Boss, do you really plan to get rid of the third child?" Hu Xiaoli asked impatiently as soon as Tao Yuming went out.

Fu Damu looked at Hu Xiaoli and asked, "What do you think?"

Hu Xiaoli was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

Fu Damu smiled slightly and said, "Xiaoli, do you think I will kill each other?"

A glimmer of light flashed in Hu Xiaoli's eyes: "Then you..."

Fu Damu took out a large envelope from a large black plastic bag, handed it to Hu Xiaoli, and said: "Xiaoli, here are two passports and a Swiss Bank bank card. I paid for it. You go and pick it up."

The third child, leave the country through the southwest port."

Hu Xiaoli took it and asked: "What about you? Aren't you going with us?"

"I can't leave." Fu Damu smiled silently and said: "As long as I am still in Nanling County, I can hold back Chu Tianshu and the others and buy time for you and Lao San. If I disappear now, I will disappear immediately.

There will be a wanted blacklist, so no one can escape."

Hu Xiaoli took Fu Damu's hand and burst into tears instantly, saying, "Boss, I'm afraid I'll never see you again after I leave."

"It doesn't matter. You and Lao San can go with peace of mind." Fu Sansen hugged Hu Xiaoli, caressed her face and said, "I know that you are actually pretending to be Lao San. After you go out, take care of him for me.

. We, Lao Fu, have to leave some roots."

"Thank you, brother!" After saying this, Hu Xiaoli burst into tears.

Fu Damu took out two brand new mobile phones, handed them to Hu Xiaoli, and said, "Xiaoli, the cards on these two mobile phones are from other places. You can no longer contact me at any time. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Hu Xiaoli asked: "Brother, when will we go out?"

"At eight-thirty, when Tao Yuming is taking action at the Tongtian River Bridge, you go out during the chaos. After picking up the third child, go to the southwest immediately. There is a contact person in the envelope. He will help you complete all the procedures."

Damu waved his hand and said: "Xiaoli, I'm going up. I wish you a safe journey."

After saying that, Fu Damu opened the door and left without looking back.

Hu Xiaoli held a mobile phone in one hand and an envelope in the other, standing silently in the middle of the secret room, tears gushing out.

Fu Damu returned to the big suite and lay stretched out on the big bed.

In the darkness, two green lights flashed.

At eight o'clock in the morning, the overnight autumn rain had stopped, and the rising sun slowly rose into the sky.

The streets and alleys of Nanling County are crowded with people. As usual, people have begun another day of noisy and busy life.

This day is a day that the people of Nanling County have long awaited.

The newly built Tongtian River Bridge is finally closing.

God also seems to be cheering for the people of Nanling County. Last night there was still continuous autumn rain. In the morning, the rain stopped. There was no cloud in the clear sky, and the brilliant sun poured its light and warmth into the sky.

On the land of Nanling, whether it is the county town, the countryside, the wilderness, the countryside, the streets and alleys, everywhere is golden and warm.

As soon as the morning came, people from the county and towns spontaneously flocked to the Tongtian River Bridge construction site from all directions. Everyone wanted to witness the joyful moment of the bridge closing with their own eyes.

At a quarter before eight o'clock, both sides of the Tongtian River were crowded with people, and the crowds were thick and dark, like a sea of ​​​​people.

For more than ten years, Nanling County has never seen such a spectacular scene.

Because there were so many people at the scene, the car in which Chu Tianshu and other leaders were riding had to stop a little far away from the bridge, abandon the car and walk to the bridge construction site.

On the bridge, two large cranes stand opposite each other, hoisting the last box girder. The slings are wrapped with bright red silk cloth. The banner of "Tongtian River Bridge Closing Ceremony" is hung on the beam body. A banner is hung on each end of the bridge.

There were long strings of firecrackers, and colorful flags were placed around the erected bridge.

On the site on the east bank of the Tongtian River, a simple podium was arranged, a long table with microphones, and three large speakers placed on the east and west banks and on the bridge deck.

Preparations have been made for a long time, and the bridge construction workers are standing ready in work clothes. They are just waiting for the leader's order. The last box girder will fall steadily, and the bridge will be officially closed and connected.

Leaders such as Chu Tianshu, Fu Damu, Yang Fugui, Geng Zhongtian came to the east bank site, and accompanying personnel from relevant departments such as Xue Jinlong and Liu Qingyan lined up on both sides.

Chu Tianshu stood in front of the long table and looked around at the spectacular scene of huge crowds of people. He was very happy and excited.

In the more than a year since I came to Nanling, earth-shaking changes have taken place in Nanling County. Green ecological agriculture is prosperous, cadres and the masses are united, and the evil forces are about to collapse. Today, the Tongtian River Bridge will be closed again, facing a magnificent and touching scene.
