Chapter 341: Ten Crimes and Lifesaver

In the conference room.

The other two people were stunned when they saw the stiff smile on Xu Shuangxi's face.

I have been working with this leader of mine for seven or eight years, but I have never seen him smile while working.

It’s incredible!
Is this still the person who is feared by other departments and called the Cold-Faced Devil?
"Haha, it's okay, cooperating with your investigation is my duty.

Once you have thoroughly investigated, I hope you can make the results public so that my reputation will not be affected."

Wang Mengde said with a smile.

He has nothing to fear as he is upright. Besides, President Lu already knows about it. He guessed that the higher-ups must be moving around and maybe they have also been alarmed.

As the backbone of the health care system, his superiors will definitely get him out safely at all costs.

Besides, he thought that he had no leverage over himself. Over the years, he had faced countless temptations of women and money.

He rejected all of these one by one, and kept the secret of the space strictly confidential. Even He Shengnan didn't know about it. He really couldn't think of anything that could be reported.

"Okay, thank you Comrade Wang Mengde for your understanding. After we verify everything, if the above is all false, we will definitely come forward to help you explain.

Now I will verify some of the contents of the report letter with you."

Xu Shuangxi said politely with a smile on his face, then paused and asked:
"Comrade Wang Mengde, someone reported that you have taken a large amount of supplies from your workplace to your home over the past few years.

These supplies include chicken, fish, meat, eggs, beef, mutton, cloth, and a large number of other scarce items such as pastries, fruits, snacks, etc.

Some people have seen that you do this more than once or twice a month. You cannot use all the supplies for yourself, so you give them to many relatives and friends.

Excuse me, have these reported incidents ever occurred? "

The other two staff members in the conference room also stared at Wang Mengde's face, carefully observing the subtle changes in his expression.

According to the report, the amount of materials was extremely huge and the duration was very long. If this was true, it would be a major case that shocked the country.

"It's true that we took the supplies back, but I don't remember the exact amount."

Wang Mengde answered directly. Before the three people on the opposite side could speak, he quickly explained:
“But every time I took supplies, I had to register with the hospital, and they were all approved by my superiors and higher-ups.

It is difficult to explain it in just a few words here. You can go to the Chinese Medical Research Institute to investigate this matter, or check with my superiors, and they will give more details than I can. "

Hearing that the report was about supplies, Wang Mengde felt relieved because he had not taken advantage of the country in the slightest.

On the contrary, the country owes him a lot.

"Okay, we will verify this matter carefully."

Xu Shuangxi nodded, then whispered to a colleague next to him to write down everything Wang Mengde said without changing a single word.

"Then let's talk about the second part of the report. It says that over the past decade or so, you have been at work and near your home, forcing women to have that kind of relationship with you. Is that true?"

Then, the staff member on the left asked Wang Mengde.

Wang Mengde was about to answer when Xu Shuangxi suddenly interrupted:

"This report is obviously false. Let's change to the next one."

"Uh, Boss, this is a little inconsistent with the procedure?"

The staff member said with some embarrassment.

The purpose of their department is that every problem must form a complete closed loop and no small clues should be missed.

“Xiao Ren, look at Comrade Wang Mengde’s face. Which girl would not agree or take the initiative to throw herself into his arms? Rather, she was coerced.

The whistleblower obviously did not think about it carefully, or chose to forget about it.”

Xu Shuangxi said lightly.

After hearing this, the staff member named Xiao Ren was stunned for a moment, then he reacted.

What the leader said was so true. With Wang Mengde's looks, which young girl would not be confused? Not to mention intimidation, if he just waved his hand, a large number of women would rush towards him regardless of everything.

Even if you don't wave to them, there are definitely a lot of "butterflies" and "bees" around you.

"Yes, sir, I really didn't think it through. Let's move on to the next one."

Xiao Ren continued a little embarrassedly:

"Comrade Wang Mengde, the third question is that you took advantage of your position as director of the Chinese Medicine Research Institute to seek opportunities for advancement for your relatives, such as your father, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, and cousin."

Wang Mengde was not panicked about this issue. Although it was true, his father Wang Hao and his wife were promoted because their superiors secretly compensated him.

As for the jobs of his brother-in-law, cousin and others, they were all recruited according to the procedures. These countries have long been aware of this and will not bother him at all.

"I hope you can investigate this issue in detail. As for the specific situation, I can only say one thing: based on my contributions over the years, I shouldn't be only level nine and the director of a department."

Wang Mengde said this with a hint of meaning.

He believed that everyone was smart and that once they investigated, they would understand why his family and relatives had made such rapid progress.

Xu Shuangxi, Xiao Ren and the other three were naturally smart people and they understood what was going on immediately.

They tacitly agreed not to continue asking questions, but instead began to inquire about the contents of the report letter.

In addition to these three issues, there are seven major charges in the report letter, such as bullying others and condoning family members to oppress neighbors, speculation, etc., a total of ten major charges were listed against him.

About three hours later, at noon, the inquiry came to an end.

After sorting out the records that filled several pages, Xu Shuangxi's smile returned to his face:

"Comrade Wang Mengde, thank you for your cooperation. Please stay here for the time being. We will let you go back after we have investigated the matter thoroughly. This is the process and we have no other choice. Please understand."

As he said this, he prepared to stand up and leave.

"Leader, please wait a moment. I have dozens of foreign patients in Guang'anmen Hospital. I have to check on them every day. New patients still need my diagnosis and treatment.

Could you let me go back this afternoon, and come back after I finish my consultation and ward rounds?”

Wang Mengde said quickly.

Everything else is easy to deal with, but the sixty or seventy foreign patients cannot do without him.

Each of these patients must contribute at least US$50,000 in foreign exchange income to China, and we cannot be careless.

If something goes wrong due to negligence, no one can take responsibility.

Xu Shuangxi certainly had some understanding of this. He pondered for a moment, then said, "Well, Comrade Wang Mengde, your situation is very special. Please go to the room with Xiao Ren to rest for a while. I will report this matter to several leaders of the department."

Most people would tremble when they arrive at the discipline department, but Wang Mengde was different. He calmly followed Xiao Ren to the room assigned to him.

The room was about 10 square meters in size and was simply decorated with a bed, a table, and a chair. Perhaps Xu Shuangxi had specifically instructed otherwise, so he also prepared a kettle and tea for him, and a stack of newspapers on the table.

Just as he said, he was preparing to let Wang Mengde have a good rest here.

in the afternoon.

Wang Mengde ate a not-so-rich meal, then made a cup of hot tea and read the newspaper leisurely.

To be honest, he hasn't been so relaxed for a long time. Not to mention his work, there are a lot of things waiting for him. Even on holidays, the children at home will bother him.

Around two o'clock, Xu Shuangxi came in with two staff members:

"Comrade Wang Mengde, after careful consideration, the leadership has approved that you can temporarily go to the intensive care unit of Guang'anmen Hospital to treat foreign patients, but you need two of our comrades to accompany you."

"No problem, I'll follow your instructions."

Wang Mengde said with a smile.

So, in the afternoon, a strange scene occurred in the intensive care unit of Guang'anmen Hospital.

Wang Mengde began to check on the wards room by room. Behind him, in addition to two nurses, there were two other expressionless people watching his every move.

It took more than two hours to come out of the last intensive care unit, where I happened to run into Dean Lu.

He smiled and nodded imperceptibly at Wang Mengde.

If we talk about who is most anxious about Wang Mengde being taken away to cooperate with the investigation, it would be Dean Lu.

In the morning, as soon as those people left, he called his superiors and introduced the situation. However, he was still not reassured, so he called several other superiors.

The feedback he received made him feel much more at ease. Both his superiors and leaders above him said that they would immediately look into the matter and must ensure that Comrade Wang Mengde was brought out safely.

The implication of the words is very clear. Regardless of whether a crime has been committed or not, the final result must be that nothing is wrong.

With the assurances from those leaders, President Lu was finally able to put his mind at ease and went back to work as usual as if nothing had happened.

It was not until someone reported to him that Comrade Wang Mengde went to the intensive care unit for rounds, followed by two people, that he created this encounter.

That night, Wang Mengde spent the night in the discipline department. He was certainly not idle, but was carefully thinking in his mind who was anonymously reporting him.

Moreover, he continued to report himself dozens of times without giving up.

He thought for a moment and had an idea in his mind. This person was either Xu Damao or Gao Yuze, and it was most likely Xu Damao.

After all, the report also said that he used his power to bully his neighbors and provide room for advancement for his family and relatives.

Most people don’t understand these things, unless they are familiar with him.

Three days passed like this, and no one else came to ask about him, as if they had forgotten him.

This morning.

Xu Shuangxi brought the investigation report to the conference room and reported to several leaders.

"Dear leaders, after three days of investigation, most of the cases reported against Comrade Wang Mengde have been investigated and found to be non-existent.

Not only that, much of the so-called evidence of guilt is actually the opposite.

For example, the first article in the report said that Comrade Wang Mengde took a lot of supplies from the unit to his home every month.

But the truth is that Comrade Wang Mengde cured many foreign patients of terminal illnesses. In order to express their gratitude to him, those patients shipped a lot of supplies from abroad to him.

These supplies were extremely large and in endless supply. Comrade Wang Mengde handed over most of them to the health and family planning departments, and left a small portion in Guang'anmen Hospital as welfare for all employees.

Of course, he did take some back himself, but this amount accounted for less than one ten-thousandth of the total. However, each time it was recorded, this was also approved by the higher-ups.

In fact, the country took advantage of him. If it weren't for him, those foreign patients would never send a dime of supplies to China."

Xu Shuangxi said with a complicated expression.

In fact, he and Wang Mengde have been friends for a long time. What outsiders don’t know is that his youngest son was diagnosed with leukemia a few years ago.

After going to several hospitals with no hope, just when they were about to give up, Wang Mengde developed a prescription and finally they recovered.

At that time, he was busy with a case and had no time to take care of his child. It was his family who took his younger son to Guang'anmen Hospital for treatment, so the two had never met.

But he will always remember in his heart that Wang Mengde is his family's savior.

"Are the remaining contents in the report letter also all fabricated?"

The leader asked.

In the past few days, leaders of several other departments have been putting pressure on him, and everyone is speaking well of Wang Mengde.

Moreover, the higher-ups are also paying attention to this matter, and he can hardly stand the pressure anymore.

If there is no problem with Comrade Wang Mengde, that would be the best and everyone would be happy. Even if there is a problem, as long as it is not a matter of principle, there is room for maneuver.

"Leader, there are a total of ten items in the report letter. Eight of them have been verified so far. There are no problems with these. The remaining two items require a lot of time to collect evidence, so..."

Xu Shuangxi explained.

“At present, most of the information in the report does not exist.

Wang Mengde's identity is somewhat special. We have asked him to come here to cooperate with the investigation for three days. There is not much point in him staying here any longer, and it will also affect his work.

I suggest that we let him go back to work first, and we will continue to investigate. If necessary, we can ask him to come over to cooperate. Does anyone have any different opinions? "

The leader spoke.

This was the best of both worlds solution he came up with after thinking hard for half the night last night.

If Wang Mengde was not allowed to go back, he was afraid that the leaders of other departments would come and argue with him, especially some of them who came from the military and had extremely hot tempers.

"I agree."

"This is a good idea. Not only will it not delay our work, but it will also allow us to cooperate with our investigation at any time."

Of course, the other leaders also understood the importance of the matter and expressed their agreement.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, please ask Comrade Xu Shuangxi to discuss this matter with Comrade Wang Mengde."
