659: Chapter 659 Report Information
These words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly dousing the hope that had just risen within the young girl. The girl pursed her lips tightly, her hands hanging at her sides clenching slightly. For a moment, she didn't know what to say, leaving only a heart full of helplessness and silence.
After a good while, she finally mustered the courage to speak again in a small voice.
"Then... Dad, maybe we should..."
Before she could finish, the man suddenly raised his hand and interrupted her.
This time, he didn't stop her in a panic as before, nor did he avoid it with a face full of fear. Instead, his gaze darkened, carrying a resolve to burn his bridges.
"Leier, go."
"Bring up the Inspection Team's announcement, whistleblowing methods, and the scope of acceptance for me to see."
Hearing this, Leier was momentarily stunned. Then, her entire face lit up. The long-suppressed joy surged up instantly, and her eyes sparkled.
She knew all too well; her father had finally made up his mind to stand up and resist... "Sigh, what is all this mess? I'm really fed up. How is it that every time a round of inspection happens, we always run into so many inexplicable and illogical whistleblowing letters?"
Inside the office area of the Inspection Team's temporary base, the fluorescent lights were blindingly bright, and the air was filled with the faint scent of energy drinks.
The Team Member responsible for the preliminary sorting and screening of whistleblowing information from the masses rubbed his aching temples. He closed the light screen casually and slumped onto the desk, his tone filled with helplessness and exhaustion.
A colleague sitting opposite him, also organizing information, looked up upon hearing this and chimed in with a smile.
"What's wrong? Did you encounter some 'Divine Being's' bizarre report again? I knew it; there's bound to be plenty of outrageous ones among these whistleblowing letters."
"Tell me about it..."
The former reopened the light screen, tapped the whistleblowing information on it with his fingertip, his face a mix of laughter and tears.
"See for yourself. This citizen filed a real-name report, saying a regular clerk at a certain unit in their jurisdiction had a stiff tone and a perfunctory attitude when processing business for him at the window. He felt unhappy, so he immediately suspected the person of corruption and bribery. He even said with conviction, 'A bad attitude means they must have something to hide, and if they have something to hide, they must have embezzled money.' What kind of logic is that?"
The two looked at each other, both shaking their heads helplessly.
Many people have a misconception that as long as it's a real-name report or Materials reflecting information from within the system, it must have clear facts, sufficient basis, and be reasonable and compliant.
But only those truly on the front lines of an inspection know that while whistleblowing channels are open, they are always mixed with a small portion of unreasonable content that has no factual basis, completely unsustainable logic, or is even purely an outlet for personal emotions. The whistleblowing letters before them were the most typical examples.
Some were just a few words, full of subjective conjecture; some rambled on, failing to grasp the main point; and others slapped on big labels based solely on suspicion, with no time, no location, no witnesses, and no evidence, making people not know whether to laugh or cry.
But because they were real-name reports or from within the system, they still had to finish reading them.
Just as this Team Member was about to categorize this bizarre whistleblowing letter into 'Pending Verification' and continue scrolling down, he suddenly saw a completely different piece of whistleblowing information.
He instinctively paused his movements. Taking a closer look, his gaze instantly became serious.
It was completely different from those scattered, brief whistleblowing letters that ended after just a few sentences with almost no supporting data.
This set of whistleblowing Materials was densely packed. Reading through the whole thing, it was over ten thousand words long, with clear logic and distinct sections. From problem clues, involved personnel, and timelines to specific matters, everything was listed clearly one by one.
What was even more surprising was that various attachments were neatly included in the Materials.
Bank statement screenshots, photocopies of correspondence records, on-site photos, time comparison tables, excerpts of relevant documents... and even a unique photograph.
The photograph showed a paper letter, which recorded some information about threats to pay money.
Every page was marked clearly, forming a relatively complete chain of evidence.
He already understood in his heart.
This time, they had likely encountered a solid lead.
"A big fish has finally come!"
Staring at the light screen in front of him, the eyes of the Inspection Team member, who had been full of fatigue, suddenly lit up. His tone carried uncontrollable excitement and gravity.
He immediately adjusted his sitting posture, his fingertips sliding quickly across the light screen, fully expanding this heavy set of whistleblowing Materials and reading through it word by word, sentence by sentence.
As lines of text, sets of data, and pieces of supporting Materials came into view, the ease and curiosity on his face quickly faded, replaced by an increasingly heavy gloom.
His brow furrowed tighter and tighter, his lips pressed into a thin line, and even his breathing slowed down unconsciously. His entire body was as tense as a fully drawn bowstring.
Several Team Members sitting not far away noticed his abnormality. They all put down their work and quickly gathered around the light screen.
Several pairs of eyes fell simultaneously on the detailed whistleblowing information. The office instantly became so quiet that only the sound of steady breathing remained.
In just a few moments, the faces of the crowd, which had been somewhat relaxed, darkened one after another. Their eyes were filled with shock, anger, and disbelief.
After several long minutes, when the last page of evidence Materials had been browsed, the leading Team Member took a deep breath and reached out to close the light screen.
Under the dim lights, the faces of the Inspection Team members were as grave as iron, their gazes sharp and serious. The air around them seemed to freeze, with no trace of the previous casualness when complaining about bizarre reports.
"Quick! Notify the Team Leader and Deputy Head immediately! Get them here now! The nature of this matter is extremely serious; it must be reported at the first opportunity!"
The urgent and low voice broke the silence. The Team Member dared not delay for a moment and immediately sent an urgent notification through the internal communication channel.
In just a few minutes, Team Leader Li Yang and Deputy Head Sa Deli rushed to the information screening area. The two saw at a glance that the atmosphere on site was extraordinary, and their expressions instantly became solemn.
That crucial whistleblowing information was then retrieved again and presented in its entirety before the two core persons in charge.
Li Yang stood before the light screen, his gaze as sharp as a blade, carefully reviewing every word and sentence.
From the units and personnel involved to the chain of interest transfers and backroom operation processes, then to the clearly traceable transfer records, the ironclad evidence of correspondence vouchers, and the detailed and specific timelines... the further he read, the more ashen his face became. His knuckles turned slightly white from the force he exerted, and the pressure around him was terrifyingly low.
When all the content had been browsed, the long-suppressed rage could finally no longer be restrained.
Li Yang suddenly raised his hand and slammed his palm heavily onto the desk in front of him. A dull, loud bang echoed through the quiet office area, causing the equipment on the desk to vibrate slightly.
"Abominable! Simply audacious!"
Li Yang's voice suppressed a towering rage, his tone cold as ice.
"These damned vermin, sucking the blood of the Galaxy Cluster and gnawing at the Foundation of public resources. Even during the period of strict crackdowns and rectification, they didn't know how to restrain themselves, still committing crimes against the wind, behaving so brazenly!"
This whistleblowing information that ignited the anger of everyone present did not come from anonymous speculation or scattered clues. It was precisely the heavy-hitting whistleblowing Materials submitted under their real names by the father and daughter of Lingdong Transportation Co., Ltd., after taking great risks.
