Chapter 502: Chapter 502
The other party laughed heartily, feeling Liu Zhizhong was truly an interesting person.
However, this man named Niu Jianlong, the director of the Public Security Department, still told Liu Zhizhong a few things.
Since the entire incident was alarming yet without danger and involved an issue with the co-pilot, it had already been reported up the chain as soon as the problem was discovered.
According to the current highest directives, the spread of the news was to be fully suppressed. If the situation could be handled internally, it should definitely be done so to avoid causing a negative impact and panic across the entire aviation industry.
Therefore, Liu Zhizhong would not receive much publicity, but the pilot could be publicized, though the fervor would also be controlled.
However, the higher-ups wanted to get detailed information about Liu Zhizhong, after all, he was the heroic key figure in the entire event and they hoped that Liu Zhizhong would cooperate.
Liu Zhizhong expressed complete understanding, for stability overrides all else.
Right then, Niu Jianlong personally registered Liu Zhizhong's information, which was considered quite an honor. Read complete versıon only at 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⟡𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚⟡𝘯𝘦𝘵
After the registration was completed, Niu Jianlong was quite pleased and shook Liu Zhizhong's hand, saying, "Oh, Liu Zhizhong, I didn't expect it. You are indeed an outstanding member of our Party, a good servant of the people! Such merit, I will issue an internal notice to Hu Yang Province, the organization will internally commend you!"
Liu Zhizhong pondered for a long time before requesting not to do so, deeming it unnecessary. He had merely done what a Party member should do and did not wish to be publicly acknowledged or sensationalized, preferring to keep a low profile. As for reports of the investigation and such, they could include his name or even use a pseudonym.
Niu Jianlong's eyes bulged, exclaiming that this was an important chip for promotion and a rare opportunity to advance one's career, asking if he was really prepared to give it up, which would be such a waste. "Think carefully, saving the lives of over three hundred people, what a great achievement that is! If this is recorded by the organization, your future would truly be boundless!"
Liu Zhizhong, however, said, "If every one of our Party and government officials only thought about their achievements, everything would lose its meaning. Besides, I am currently unwell, having come out for personal travel to unwind and recuperate. I don't wish to be suddenly called back for some important assignment or another. These years, I have also grown tired and genuinely wish to rest for a bit."
Niu Jianlong laughed in understanding and did not press the issue further, promptly arranging for a hotel stay, ensuring that all expenses for his visit to Rong City would be fully covered by the local authorities, and offering to provide staff to accompany him as tour guides.
However, Liu Zhizhong declined, mentioning that he had friends waiting for him at the airport exit. He found it pleasant to simply slip away quietly and not waste the local government's resources.
Such a fellow was quite distinctive, causing Niu Jianlong to admire him greatly, leaving a very deep impression. Even exchanging contact information with Liu Zhizhong, Niu Jianlong assured him that he could reach out for any issues, especially those within his purview.
Of course, Liu Zhizhong's luggage had already been delivered to him. Liu Zhizhong stressed that as he was on a private trip with friends looking after him, it was best not to trouble Niu Ting and local officials further, finding peace in that.
Watching Liu Zhizhong's receding figure, Niu Jianlong couldn't help but find the young man intriguing. Over the years, so many young officials had been eager to make rapid achievements, to curry favor with higher-ups, and to satisfy their vanity within the Party and government system.
But this Liu Zhizhong from Hu Yang was truly something else!
Alright! Niu Ting was indeed an interesting person and, disregarding Liu Zhizhong's request, still passed on his commendable deeds directly to the Provincial Organization Department through the Ningnan Provincial Organization Department on the following afternoon, after the official investigation concluded, handing them over to Luo Tianlin. However, he noted the comrade's noble idea of wanting to remain anonymous and not desiring recognition...
In fact, that was not Liu Zhizhong's intention at all, but what could he do? His visit this time was for Ma Qingqing, ah, so many things involved.
Let alone the fact that people online were saying Mr. Liu was Liu Zhizhong, which of course had been refuted. The latest works of Mr. Liu even mentioned that the big brother had gone to Rong City himself. Just then, Liu Zhizhong had arrived too... it was hard to avoid being dug up! If it were to be uncovered, goodness, netizens nationwide would know about Liu Zhizhong's affair with the daughter of a fallen leader. What was he up to? Was this abandoning his future?
Even though sometimes you just have to do your own thing and let others talk, if someone in the organization were to bring it up, Liu Zhizhong would find it quite troublesome.
Besides, the trip south involved painful secrets of people like Ma Xudong and Zhang Huazhi; why unearth these? Information that had not been exposed during the Yangbei anti-corruption and anti-organized crime operation, why should it be disclosed to others now?
Niu Jianlong, in his position, was very useful in matters . But it really was too complicated and wasn't necessary. Moreover, Feng Xiaoyue had arranged for Xiang Wenxin to pick him up – that was already helpful. Why use any other resources?
If push came to shove, he could still turn to Niu Jianlong. Anyway, Liu Zhizhong felt he had left a good impression; and this whole matter also reflected well on Niu Jianlong.
Liu Zhizhong, suitcase in tow, quickly reached the VIP arrivals lounge and was just about to head for the exit when a familiar voice came from a corner inside.
"Mr. Liu, I'm over here."
Liu Zhizhong suddenly turned around, and his gaze became somewhat fixed…
