Chapter 2012: Hardcore Fan

This meeting was being held after the arrest of Wu Jingzhong and Xu Binren. Many important leaders were in attendance.

The meeting was being hosted by Lan Weisong, alongside the state leaders and the Ministry of Justice. The meeting’s purpose was to ensure that the entire state’s administrative office’s staff were aware of the consequences of doing something wrong. They used Wu Jingzhong and Xu Binren as examples to remind everyone not to forget their reasons for working in the administrative office. They had to be diligent and care for society.

The first thing on the agenda was for Lan Weisong and the people from the Ministry of Justice to explain the Wu Jingzhong and Xu Binren incident in detail to everyone.

The second was for Lan Weisong to make a speech and swear an oath to everyone. All the leaders also had to swear on that oath to be good officials who were diligent in their government work and also cared for society. They had to be loyal to the nation and not tarnish the reputation of the executive hall.

The third was to watch a video regarding the subcontracted road, which detailed the condition of the road after the earthquake, the actual construction of the road, how the Wu family split the money, and Xu Binren’s participation in the distribution of the money. After the incident, they put all the blame on Wu Jingzhong, so they killed Wu Zongxu.

The final thing to do was for the Ministry of Justice to once again remind the meeting’s participants about the rule of law. It was to ensure that everyone understood that their roles would have no impact on what would happen if they made the mistake of breaking the law—they would still be completely at the Ministry of Justice’s mercy.

The first and second points on the agenda had already been completed, and the third was now coming to an end.

All the participants were dumbstruck.

When Wu Jingzhong was first arrested for this matter, many people who knew him, admired him, and were close to him did not believe it.

After all, the Wu family was so rich and had such few members. Wu Jingzhong usually could not even use up all of the Wu Group’s annual dividends. Much of that money had been donated and used to build twenty schools in the poor mountainous areas. Wu Jingzhong’s character and reputation were admired, so the rumors had been unbelievable. Even those who did not have a particularly good relationship with him secretly respected his meticulous nature and had to admit that they were in disbelief at the news.

However, when they saw the video, everyone sighed in disappointment. They never imagined that Wu Jingzhong would do something so stupid and use such despicable methods to earn some profit.

The video finally ended, and the fourth point on the agenda was about to begin. However, someone suddenly stood up and spoke up for Wu Jingzhong.

This person was the director of the Education Ministry. The Sea District Education Ministry managed many schools catering to the poor, providing the children of these poverty-stricken mountainous areas with a good environment to grow up in. Most of these schools had been built by Wu Jingzhong himself. Therefore, the director of the Education Bureau admired Wu Jingzhong very much. He was a hardcore fan of his!

“Governor Lan and colleagues from the Ministry of Justice, I’d like to ask you all a question.”

“Director Yin, please go ahead,” said Lan Weisong.

“Everyone knows that I’m close to Governor Wu, so I think I know more about Governor Wu’s family situation than most of the people here. The deceased, Wu Zongxu, was indeed Governor Wu’s son. However, you all may not know this, but Governor Wu never married or had any children of his own. Wu Zongxu is just Governor Wu’s adopted son. The video that we just watched is evidence of Governor Wu’s adopted son’s actions. He was orchestrating everything from the background. It was him who contacted the contractor, and it was him who contacted Governor Xu and his secretary.”
