Chapter 164 The Carrot that Makes the Donkey Work
"Why are we the last to know about such a big thing! Where are the people in the secretariat! Why didn't they report it immediately after knowing the news! Why did they wait until the matter spread and all the students in the school knew about it, but we didn't know it!"
At the board meeting for the umpteenth time this month, a school director was furious and kept slapping the table with both hands!
Their work is not so busy at ordinary times. As school directors, they will only be called to a meeting when a major accident occurs in the college, which harms the interests of everyone in the entire college and the principal cannot make a decision.
But during this period, major events happened in the college almost every day, every week, and every month.
Three regular students died last night, and today such a huge scandal was exposed again!
More importantly, they didn't know about this news in the first time?
This is simply a joke!
"Before coming here, I asked someone to ask the secretariat, and they said that the news department did not restrain themselves in such a big matter. They thought that we directly instructed the news department to do it, so no one dared to ask."
"When has the news department ever restrained themselves? Those people are just a bunch of playboys who come to the college to gild themselves and seek excitement! How could we directly instruct the news department of the student union to do something? Who is the head of the secretariat? The college must hold him accountable!"
The other directors did not say anything when they heard this, but their eyes collectively turned to a female director.
The female director said indifferently.
"The secretary is my son. Since he made a mistake, of course he must be held accountable. I will teach him a lesson with his father when I go home."
The director did not say anything.
The whole meeting fell silent.
In fact, sometimes it is not the fault of the college students that the atmosphere is corrupt, because children are usually bad because of family problems, and if most families have problems, then it is mostly the society that has problems.
"We'll talk about how to rectify the secretariat later. Let's talk about the current situation first."
Xin Guohong broke the silence in the meeting and brought the discussion back on track.
"Yesterday's murder case has not been solved yet, and now this scandal has been exposed, especially the account book, which has many names that should not appear in the public eye. This means that this matter has not been reported to the central government. Once the upper level knows about it, it will definitely put pressure on us."
When talking about this matter, a school director said dissatisfiedly.
"That kid is a bit ungrateful. How could he inform the News Department of such a thing in the first place? He has no sense of the overall situation. How can we trust him?"
"The information reported by the Discipline Department said that when he was investigating, most of the Discipline Committee members had their own tasks. The big case last night just happened, and the Discipline Department was short of staff. And those people from the Flower Arrangement Society were hostile to them from the beginning, which made them very passive, so they had to borrow his already established reputation and call the News Department."
"He has thought of all the excuses!"
"According to the subsequent investigation of the scene by the Discipline Department, the situation is indeed the same as he said, and before calling the News Department, he didn't know what was in the underground secret room. He originally thought that it was a place where Zhang Zhisen used to hide his ** business, but he didn't expect that he would commit such a big thing."
Looking back at Li Weiming's actions and perspective, his performance does look innocent.
But there are no fools sitting here, and the young Tianen school director who was lying leisurely on the back of the chair mentioned it casually.
"Zhang Zhisen and Wang Qi were just killed yesterday, and he found evidence of their crimes in the flower arrangement club today. Isn't it a bit too coincidental?"
This made all the school directors think. If it wasn't mentioned, they wouldn't have thought of the same thing, but now that they think about it carefully, it does seem a bit too coincidental.
"It shouldn't be possible. It can be seen that he enjoys being in the spotlight. And he has no reason to kill. If he kills for the sake of investigating the case, it's a bit far-fetched. He investigates the case to maintain his reputation, but if he takes risks for this, it's putting the cart before the horse."
"That's right, he has no motive to kill. And in the water tanks found in the underground secret room of the flower arrangement club, the mutilated bodies of Zhang Zhisen and Wang Qi were also found. I am more inclined to believe that this was a revenge killing. The murderer is obviously imitating the methods of these two people. Obviously, he knew what Zhang Zhisen and the others had done in advance."
In response, the young school director of Tianen just shrugged.
"You all have good reasons. Anyway, I'm just guessing. Don't take it too seriously."
"Investigating cases is what the Discipline Department and the Guards should do. We are here to discuss the problem, not to take the job away from them, but to decide how to solve the current situation."
Xin Guohong once again brought the meeting back to the main topic. He was able to sit in the position of principal because he was mature and steady enough. If he hadn't gone too deep on the road of mastering the rules, the Council of Advisors would even want to keep him in the central government and give him a position as a minister.
"The first question, and the most important one, is how to contain the news that is now spreading wildly in the college."
When Xin Guohong raised the question, a school director said.
"It seems that it can't be contained. In one afternoon, the news even spread out of the college. All we can do now is to make up for it and minimize the impact of this incident on the college."
"How else can we reduce the impact? Both Zhang Zhisen and Wang Qi are students of the college, and the account book also mentions the director of the Faculty Management Committee. The reputation of the college has been completely ruined!"
However, at this time, the young man from Tianen chuckled and said.
"It is not easy to reduce the impact. The bad thing about this incident is that the account books have been exposed, but the good thing is that the account books have been exposed."
The school directors all turned their attention to him. Everyone knew that Tian En had the most clever ideas. Anyone who could succeed in this company was either a madman or a genius!
Facing everyone's gaze, the young man from Tianen put one foot on the other and put both feet on the long meeting table under Xin Guohong's frowning gaze.
He sat on the chair in a half-lying position and said lightly.
"It's true that Zhang Zhisen and Wang Qi are students of the college, but the shameful business they do is with people from the central government. If you ask me, just throw all the evidence found by the college to the central government and report it to the criminal police The department filed a complaint, saying that an illegal organization from the central government had seduced the students of the college and committed such outrageous things, and asked them to take care of their own public security and not harm the college. "
“Doesn’t it mean that the central government is primarily responsible for this matter, and we are the victims?”
A school director frowned and said.
"But if you do this, you will offend the central government."
Tian'en's young school director sneered.
"Who has offended the central government? Which school director? Which organization? Isn't this in the name of the college? There are people from the royal family and people who serve in the cabinet in the college. How can we offend ourselves?"
The others looked at each other. Although this approach was a bit unethical and was obviously meant to divert trouble, the Central Committee's poor reputation in other dungeons had not just happened in a day or two. They also agreed with what he said.
"The same is true in the academy. The matter should be characterized as soon as possible, and the Department of Ethics and Discipline should determine who in the flower arrangement club knows and who does not know, hold the insiders jointly and severally responsible, directly expel the matter and hand it over to the central government. What should others do? "
The first problem is solved in this way.
Although it is not perfect, things have developed to this extent. There is no absolutely perfect solution. It is enough to achieve this level.
Seeing that the matter was confirmed, Xin Guohong continued in a deep voice.
"Second question, Vic Forrest, who discovered this matter, solved two major cases in less than two weeks. How should we reward him?"
One of the school directors said.
"After he caught Quan Liangsong, it was unfair to him just to promote him to the position of team leader. Even if he handled it inappropriately this time, since it was the knife we decided to release, it should be Those who are promoted will be promoted, and those who deserve punishment will be punished. As long as he can continue to arrest people who others dare not arrest, and investigate cases that others dare not investigate, then give him the glory he wants. "
None of the other school directors rejected this result. Li Wei's knife is really easy to use. He is really not afraid of anything, and his background is not deep, especially if he is from the Western District. Even if he is liquidated in the end Yes, school directors can also be out of sight and out of mind.
"To what extent?" a school director asked.
Any student union that involves the appointment or removal of personnel at the level of deputy minister or above must first consult the school board of directors before making a decision.
Since the school director asked this question directly, it meant that he was actually considering making Li Wei the deputy minister of the Department of Ethics and Discipline.
"He has only been in the Discipline Department for a month, and has only been in the college for less than three months. Now he is about to take such a high position. Isn't this a little too fast?" A school director raised a question.
But such questions did not cause much concern.
"It's a special thing. If you don't give him enough power, it's like letting a dog guard the house and not giving him meat to eat. The dog won't be able to kill its owner, but it may run away one day. Since you want to If you want to make him work, you must feed him as soon as possible, keep him greedy, and let him know that as long as he works hard, he will be rewarded, so that he can become a good dog who knows who to bite. "
This statement was quite agreeable to the school directors present.
They were not worried about whether Li Wei would be promoted quickly or whether his position would be high enough. The only thing they were worried about was whether Li Wei would work hard enough to do things and whether he would dare to offend others.
In the end, this matter was confirmed by Xin Guohong.
"After the meeting is over, issue an order to the student union and ask them to reward and promote Vic Forrest according to the procedures."
Then his face turned serious.
"The third and final question. The serial murder case that happened last night had an extremely bad impact. After the news spread, many parents of students in the central government sent letters to the college, asking us to ignore the situation. All reforms must ensure the safety of students.”
"This matter must be investigated as soon as possible!"
When Xin Guohong asked this question, the entire conference room fell silent.
Because murders involving official students are rare in the academy, the previous case was Luo Jin's death.
An Ziming's explosion and the teachers and students killed by Levi cannot be called murder, but anti-social.
Therefore, the Discipline Department and the Guards lack experience in detective investigations. This situation leaves the school board with no choice. They cannot investigate the case themselves, and that is likely to make the situation worse.
After looking around at the people on the long table and not getting any answers, Xin Guohong himself said in an old voice.
"I have a suggestion. The position of the Minister of Discipline is currently vacant, and Vic Forrest has shown extraordinary courage and is extremely enthusiastic about the power in the academy. We can use this to give him Make a promise."
"Ask him to participate in the investigation of serial murder cases. As long as he can find the murderer and investigate the case clearly, the school board will guarantee him that he will become the Minister of Discipline on the day the case is concluded!"
A school director shook his head and said.
"If you feed him too much at one time, he will definitely be too lazy to work later. This is not in line with our original plan for him to completely change the atmosphere of the college."
Xin Guohong continued in a calm tone.
"Of course the minister of discipline is not that easy to be. Just to let him work, the carrot hanging in front of his head must be preceded by the word "temporary". If he can meet that condition, it means that he has not only proved his Courage has also proven his ability. If he has courage and ability, what will happen if the minister asks him to sit here? As long as he is willing to do things, first rectify the discipline department, and then let the discipline department rectify the entire college, then our goal will be achieved. "
After hearing his detailed explanation, the school directors all nodded and agreed with the resolution.
Their original purpose was to let Levi change the chaos among current college students, so that formal students could focus on their studies. As long as he could do this, it didn't matter how high he sat.
After all, the positions of the student union can only be held by students. Once they graduate, no matter how prosperous they were before, they will all become in vain.
And now all these are meat and bones given to him by the school directors!
At this point, the meeting is over.
The school directors stood up one after another and left the meeting room, and what they had decided on was also issued and implemented.
The college officially expressed its stance on the case committed by Zhang Zhisen and Wang Qi, and held everyone involved in this reselling case accountable.
All college personnel recorded in the ledger were transferred to the Central Criminal Department and handed over to them for processing.
In the Department of Ethics and Discipline, the director of ethics and discipline also found Li Wei privately after receiving the instruction.
