"Director Zhou..., why are you here?"

Chen Ke never expected that the person who pushed the door open was actually his immediate superior. He was so scared that he stood up suddenly.

This is a small county town, and leaders of the director's level rarely come here, except during the Chinese New Year.

"If I hadn't come, you would have caused such a mess here?"

Director Zhou slammed the table, glared at Chen Ke, and said angrily: "Don't you know what you did? Why do you want to embarrass a disabled soldier? He is also a combat hero. How will he make the people view our Industry and Commerce Bureau?"

Chen Ke was startled and immediately said, "Director, it's not what you think. It's all a misunderstanding, just a small matter."

"It's a small matter?" Director Zhou pointed at his nose and stared at him: "You still say it's a small matter? You asked a disabled soldier for sponsorship, and he refused to give it, so you drag your feet?"

"You also said it was obstruction of public affairs, so you asked the staff to take action, and the people were thrown out. In my opinion, you have turned the Industrial and Commercial Bureau here into a den of bandits. Recently, a certain deputy led people to forcibly demolish the university student entrepreneurship base. Did you learn this from him?"

"You still call this a small matter? What is a big deal in your eyes?"

The sound became louder and louder, and people near the office were alarmed. Many of them ran over to check. When some saw that it was the director himself who came to the office in the small county, they were shocked and ran out of their offices.

Chen Ke, who was reprimanded, snorted coldly, and felt a chill on his back: "No, Director, is someone trying to defame me? It's not true. This is in accordance with policy..."

"Policy?" Director Zhou interrupted angrily: "Whether it is a smear campaign or not, just ask Comrade Shi Guo to find out. You are really amazing. In your eyes, combat heroes are nothing. You even want to call the police to arrest people and force soldiers to sponsor you. Did you see this clause in your policy? Do disabled soldiers need to share their benefits with you when they start their own businesses?"

"They fought bloody battles on the battlefield, risking their lives just to protect you from drinking tea here and eating and drinking well. Are you going to embarrass them? This is simply an irony, and it's all people like you who are leading the way."

The accusations were mercilessly pinned down, making Chen Ke jump up in fear. He also became angry, not caring about his status, and immediately shouted angrily: "Leader, you can scold me, but to put a accusation on my head like this, you need evidence. I don't want to be taken advantage of. If it weren't for the new policy, I would have retired in half a year. I have worked diligently for decades, and everyone has witnessed it."

"Everyone has seen it, right?" Director Zhou turned around and looked at the staff members who had come over after hearing the news. He snorted and said, "Tell me if you know anything about this. Don't tell me that the military comrades have been here for several months and you don't know anything about it."

Everyone was silent for a moment, and then someone spoke up and said to Director Zhou: "Chen Ke, this matter is indeed excessive. The other party is a disabled soldier. How can you treat him like this and use policies to suppress him?"

Someone else said, "Indeed... there is no such policy. I have suggested it, but Chen Ke didn't listen. They registered with him, so I can't interfere."

"This is definitely wrong, it's over!"

As each person spoke, Chen Ke opened his eyes wide. He never expected that these colleagues, who he had been working with for a long time, would actually take advantage of his misfortune.

He was so angry that his eyes widened and his face turned pale: "You...how can you lie? Who advised me? In fact, I didn't even know that Shi Guo was a soldier. I..."

"He is not a soldier, he is also a member of our country's people. You can't lead the team differently. You are breaking the law. Come with us."

Director Wen, with a dignified face, came over and said seriously, "You have violated the law. You have blackmailed retired soldiers and made your staff members. I will detain you according to the law. Come with us."

At this moment, Old Wen's attitude is completely different from when he was dealing with Chen Jun. He was timid in front of the ghost Chen Jun, but now he is completely attacking the director with a heavy punch.

No mercy!

If there was a three-year-old child here, he would be scared to tears by Old Wen’s aura.

"I haven't broken any law..." Chen Ke shouted out of control.

"You've broken the law," Director Wen said mercilessly. "I've got the video. In it, someone ordered someone to beat someone up and threatened a colonel. Your actions will be used as evidence in court."

Chen Ke was surprised: "When did I threaten a colonel? Don't talk nonsense."

He knew very well that a colonel was already a very senior officer and was rarely seen. He usually stayed in the army as a full regiment commander or deputy brigade commander.

If this is true, his crime is even greater.

"Comrade Chen Jun is a colonel. He is also an officer in the secret forces. Sorry, you are not qualified to inquire about his identity. Take him away."

Director Wen waved his hand and asked someone to come and take Chen Ke away.

Suddenly, Chen Ke shuddered all over and had a strong urge to urinate. In his decades of experience in office, he had a special status and considerable power, and he was the one who had the final say. Not only was he held accountable by his superiors today, but his colleagues seemed to not know him and took advantage of his misfortune. Now he was accused of blackmailing a combat hero and threatening an active colonel.

Others were confused.

"No, he is so young, how can he be a colonel? Don't lie to me." he shouted.
