Chapter 119 Old fritters

"Hey, how can you be so confident when you ask me for something?"

"I'm helping you, aren't you supposed to thank me?"

"Haha, you are really shameless. I really underestimated you."

"Thank you for the compliment, I will continue to maintain it and work hard to carry it forward."

!!!

Su Xiaotong turned his head speechlessly and looked at the guy walking beside him with a calm expression.

Seeing him looking at him, Li Yancheng grinned at him with his teeth bared, his big white teeth sparkling in the sunlight. Su Xiaotong could only shake his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"You, I remember when we were investigating you, your file recorded that from childhood to adulthood, the most consistent evaluation of you by your classmates, comrades, and leaders was that you were aloof.

I don't know if you are a loner or not, but you don't look like one. If you were really a loner, you would definitely ignore Xiao Liu and the other two when they asked you about something. But why hasn't anyone written about your thick skin? "

"People change. I used to be a loner, but after returning from the army, I felt that was not a good thing, so I slowly forced myself to be sociable. As for being thick-skinned... I don't feel that way. I always believe that the crying child gets the milk."

"Ha ha……"

While chatting and laughing, the two of them greeted their colleagues who had not gone out, and walked through the middle courtyard to the backyard, which was said to be sparsely populated.

There are only an interrogation room and a data room in the backyard. The yard was not big originally. I don’t know who came up with the idea to level the backyard and move the house in the backyard back a lot. There are also sentry boxes at the two corners of the backyard wall, which makes the backyard a lot bigger.

The place looks spacious and nice, the only downside is that for safety reasons, there is not even a blade of grass in the entire backyard, let alone trees. The corridors have also been demolished, which means that if you want to find a place in the backyard that is not exposed to the sun, the only place is in the room.

In fact, not only the backyard was changed, but the entire courtyard was changed into a weird place.

Li Yancheng didn't know whose house this was during the Qing Dynasty, but he remembered that before liberation, a big businessman from the Republic of China lived here. In 1948, he ran away with his family, and he was one of the earliest people to run away.

After the troops came in, they took away the house under the guidance of the people who had been working secretly in Beijing. At first, this was a government agency. Later, after the territories of various districts were redistributed, this was the office of a street office in the west district of the city. As for when it became an office again, he really had never noticed.

Following Su Xiaotong into the interrogation room, although Zhu Yongxiang was still sitting on the special chair, he was not fixed in place. He looked much better. Although his face was still a little pale, at least it was no longer blue and black.

He must have just finished eating, as there was still some oil on his mouth. When he saw Su Xiaotong coming in, he stood up immediately, as if he was afraid. But Li Yancheng, who was following behind him, felt that his expression and movements were a bit artificial.

At this time, Zhu Yongxiang also saw Li Yancheng coming in behind him.

The white coat on his body startled him slightly. He must have remembered something. There was a hint of gratitude in his eyes when he looked at Li Yancheng. This look was much more sincere than the fear just now.

Li Yancheng also understood that this guy definitely didn't know what kind of poison he had taken, but considering the inexplicable words he said to his brother when he was still in prison, he should know who it was, or which people.

After entering the room, Su Xiaotong sat directly behind the desk. Seeing his men trying to pin Zhu Yongxiang down, he waved his hand and said, "Zhennan, go get him a bowl of sugar water to drink."

"Yes"

When Zhu Yongxiang heard that he was going to drink sugar water, he thought he had misheard and looked at Su Xiaotong in disbelief.

Su Xiaotong ignored him. He took out a cigarette from his pocket and gave it to Li Yancheng, then lit one for himself. He lowered his head and looked through the notebook on the table, then looked up at Zhu Yongxiang.

"You seem to have almost recovered. Come, tell me who poisoned you."

"without……"

"Zhu Yongxiang, I hope you can think it over before answering me. Just because I haven't taken action since yesterday afternoon doesn't mean I won't take action forever.

You hid in prison just to seek peace, but obviously you didn't escape.

You may not even know when you were poisoned. If it weren't for my colleague's intervention just now, you would have been dead by now.

Tell me, if I send you back to prison, how long can you survive?"

"Government, I...I can say it, but...but you have to agree to one condition of mine."

After hesitating for a while, Zhu Yongxiang finally said something that cheered people up.

"What are the conditions? Let me tell you."

"My brother doesn't know anything about me. I have never told him anything. I hope you won't make things difficult for him. I also hope you can ensure his safety."

Su Xiaotong raised his eyebrows: "Whether your brother is involved in your affairs or not, we need to investigate to know. As for his safety, you can rest assured that we will definitely ensure his safety."

It can be seen that Zhu Yongxiang still looked a little hesitant. Seeing this, Su Xiaotong simply stood up, walked over, lit a cigarette for him and put it in his mouth.

"Zhu Yongxiang, if you have any concerns, please speak up."

Silence was still the answer to him. Zhu Yongxiang sat there without saying a word, just smoking continuously until he finished the cigarette at a very fast speed, and then he spoke.

"You public security officers can't handle what I want to say. Ask your leaders to come over, or...just ask the social affairs bureau to come over."

As soon as these words were spoken, the three people in the room, as well as Huang Zhennan, who had just walked in with a bowl of sugar water, were all stunned.

After a while, Su Xiaotong took out a green ID from his trouser pocket, opened it and slapped it in front of Zhu Yongxiang.

"I can talk now."

Looking at the certificate in front of him, Zhu Yongxiang's eyes widened instantly, and after a long while he said hesitantly: "You...you are...you are..."

"Yes, we are from the Social Affairs Bureau."

Without waiting for Zhu Yongxiang to finish speaking, Su Xiaotong nodded and admitted it, and took back his ID.

"Can we talk now?"

"But you clearly said yesterday that it was from the Third Security Department of the Municipal Bureau." Zhu Yongxiang raised his head and said hesitantly.

"Here, this is another ID. Just tell me what other ID you want to see and I'll get it for you. If there's one I can get someone to make for you right away. Guaranteed authenticity."

Li Yancheng almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Zhu Yongxiang was a little dumbfounded as he looked at the certificate that appeared again. He could not normally access such a high level. He only knew about the Social Affairs Bureau because of what he had done.

"Alright Zhu Yongxiang, I have satisfied all your requests. Now it's your turn to satisfy me. Tell me everything you know. Remember, I am the only one who can guarantee the safety of you and your brother."

After saying this, Su Xiaotong waved his hand to signal Huang Zhennan to bring the bowl of sugar water over for him to drink. He turned around and walked back to the table and sat down.

"Gu dong... gu dong..."

Zhu Yongxiang drank the sugar water in the bowl in two gulps, wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, thought for a moment and said, "I know what you want to know from me. Give me those things and let me pass them on to another person..."

"Wait..." Su Xiaotong interrupted Zhu Yongxiang and said, "Who did you give the things to?"

"I...I don't know that person."

"How do you know who to give it to if you don't know them?"

"The person who gave me the things asked me to sell bicycle tickets at the Yongdingmen Ghost Market. There were fifty-one tickets, and three of them were sold together. If someone wanted to buy them without saying anything, they could just give the things to this person."

"So you don't know what the person who bought the things looks like, right?" "I really don't know what he looks like. He was wearing a scarf that covered his eyes. But the moon was very bright that night, and I saw his..."

At this point, Zhu Yongxiang raised his hand and gestured on his face: "Yes, the left eye. That person has a wart on the left corner of his eye near the temple. It's not very big."

That’s right, the person who took things from Zhu Yongxiang was the one who died in the hospital the day before yesterday.

"Who gave you the things?"

"It's... it's Tang Hewei, deputy captain of the Shishan District Transport Team."

call……

Li Yancheng, who was sitting next to Su Xiaotong, clearly felt relieved after hearing the name.

It has been three days since the man died the day before yesterday, and the case has finally taken a step forward.

"What did he give you?"

“Just a few parts.”

"Huh? What did you say?" This answer seemed to make Su Xiaotong very dissatisfied, and his voice became much louder.

"It's just... just a few parts, but... but if I'm not mistaken, then... those should be the parts of a rifle, but there are really only a few, including the spring, guide tube and guide rod, as well as the firing pin and hammer, and the receiver cover, nothing else."

Zhu Yongxiang hurriedly explained.

"How do you recognize these parts?"

"I participated in militia training. I took notes when the soldier who trained us took apart the gun and explained it to us."

"You mean to say that those parts are all from the fifth to the sixth half?"

"Yes, it should be."

Although he didn't know about other cases, Li Yancheng understood it this time. Since Zhu Yongxiang only passed on some parts, it meant that there were other people who also passed on parts.

Su Xiaotong's face looked particularly ugly at this moment.

They had already obtained the 56.5 gun when they caught the man. It was a complete gun. Now it seems that they still have a lot of work to do.

"call……"

After exhaling, he turned to look at Huang Zhennan and said, "Go find Captain Yi and ask him to send someone to see if Tang Hewei from the Shishan District Transport Team is still there. If he is, find a way to bring him back without attracting other people's attention."

"Yes"

After responding, Huang Zhennan turned and walked out of the interrogation room.

"Zhu Yongxiang, how did you get in touch with Tang Hewei?"

……

The interrogation lasted until half past six before it was considered to have ended. Even Li Yancheng could see that Zhu Yongxiang, who seemed to have agreed to confess everything, still had some reservations.

Because he cleared himself too much. According to him, he was not clear about everything and was just helping others to pass on something.

But, since you are so clean, why do you need to look for leaders or people from the Social Affairs Bureau at the beginning?
"This guy is not honest. It seems that he will not confess everything at once without some extraordinary means."

Su Xiaotong said somewhat unhappily while stuffing steamed bun into his mouth.

"Let me remind you, you'd better not work overtime tonight. Even if you can hold on, your brothers can't hold on, and Zhu Yongxiang can't hold on even more. If you stay up all night, he will put you on the ground without you having to use any special means."

Li Yancheng, who was eating with his head down, didn't even raise his head, but just raised his eyelids to look at Su Xiaotong who was sitting opposite him.

"Uh..." Su Xiaotong paused and nodded quickly: "Okay, I understand. I'll arrange the night shift and let everyone else go home."

"Well, you are the leader, you should understand the principle of relaxation and tension. This case is obviously not going to be closed in one or two days, and we can't even identify all the people involved, so there is no need to push too hard.

By the way, where is my old classmate now? "

"He's being held in the back. My people have been investigating for the whole day today, but they haven't found any connection between him and the case. I plan to release him tomorrow."

"It's up to you to decide whether to let him go or not. I'll go down and check on him."

"Okay, I'll take you there after dinner."

……

Zhu Yongyang's condition was not very good. Well, if he didn't know, it would be fine. Just like Zhu Yongan, he had no idea where he was taken, nor did he know what the person he was facing did.

But Zhu Yongyang is different. He knows clearly how powerful these people are.

Now that he knew, how could he not be afraid? He had younger brothers and sisters at home, and he had worked hard to raise them all these years. If he really couldn't get out this time...

Ugh……

Suddenly, he heard a noise coming from the other side of the gate and turned to look.

I just happened to see the door being pushed open from the outside, and the man who interrogated me yesterday walked in, followed by the old classmate.

Seeing Li Yancheng, Zhu Yongyang quickly stood up.

"Dacheng"

Seeing that this guy was still alive and kicking, Su Xiaotong turned around and said to Li Yancheng, "You stay here, I'll go and tell them something."

"it is good"

After Su Xiaotong went out, Li Yancheng walked up to Zhu Yongyang, with an iron fence between them.

"Have you eaten yet, Yongyang?"

"Eat it, Dacheng, I...can I still...can I..."

"Are you asking if you can still go out?"

Zhu Yongyang nodded nervously, his eyes full of desire for freedom.

"If you really haven't done anything wrong, why can't you get out?"

Li Yancheng chuckled and shook his head, took out two cigarettes from his pocket, put them in his mouth, and after they were lit, he passed one to Zhu Yongyang through the fence.

"I... I'm just trading some things in the ghost market. I shouldn't be targeted by this unit, right?"

"You are not just selling some things. I didn't expect that you are quite powerful now and have gathered many people to help you run errands."

"Uh... hehe, just to make a living." Zhu Yongyang smiled awkwardly.
