Chapter 153
Li Yancheng realized that something seemed to be wrong when he arrived at the unit in the morning. When he saw that the person on duty at the door was replaced by someone he didn't know at all, he knew that something must have happened again.

As he walked in and turned the corner with a lot of questions in his mind, he saw Lao Xu standing in the yard talking to a middle-aged man he didn't know.

Seeing him coming in, Lao Xu raised his hand and waved, motioning him to come over.

"Yancheng, let me introduce you. This is Ma Hongda, the leader of the second group of the Security Department. There are some things I want to know from you. Remember Yancheng, answer whatever you ask, cooperate well, and don't have any resistance."

???

I rub!

He is familiar with this!

Hearing the director say this, Li Yancheng's eyes widened instantly.

In the previous life, when the general manager of their group was investigated, he, as the financial director at the time, was also called in for questioning by comrades from the Supervisory Committee.

When the chairman introduced the supervisory committee members to him, he also reminded him to cooperate well and not to have any resistance.

He didn't expect that the same scene would be repeated in this life. However, the difference from the previous life was that when he followed Team Leader Ma into the conference room and saw several security staff standing there with guns, he realized that something big must have happened.

"Comrade Li Yancheng, where is your gun?"

As soon as I walked into the meeting room, Team Leader Ma asked!
"Oh, in ..."

As he spoke, Li Yancheng raised his hand to take the gun, but just as he moved his arm, Team Leader Ma reached over and grabbed his hand.

"Just tell us where it is and we'll get it for you."

Seeing Team Leader Ma's nervous look, Li Yancheng raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly and said, "It's pinned to the lower back."

Ok!

Li Yancheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Just a moment ago, he had moved the gun from the warehouse to his waist, otherwise he would not know how to explain where the gun went.

At the signal of Team Leader Ma, another person in the meeting room came over, took the gun from Li Yancheng's lower back and placed it on the table.

Team leader Ma turned his head and took a look, and found that the safety on the gun was on, so he didn't move again, and raised his hand to invite Li Yancheng to sit down.

"I am so sorry, Doctor Li. This is my duty. Please forgive me if I have offended you."

"It doesn't matter. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I will tell you everything I know."

Li Yancheng didn't want to talk to him about forgiveness or not. It was just a polite remark. Even if he didn't forgive him, what could he do? He dared not touch anyone.

"Okay! Comrade Li Yancheng, we are here because of what happened yesterday. First, please tell us in detail the whole process of what happened yesterday."

"Yesterday morning..."

The talk was very detailed, and Team Leader Ma interrupted Li Yancheng several times, repeatedly asking about some details.

It can be seen from the repeated questioning that this man named Ma is indeed an expert in interrogation. If you tell a lie in front of him, it won't take long before you are exposed.

He also seemed to be able to analyze some of the micro-expressions of the people being questioned, but that was probably just as he was accumulating experience.

Because after Li Yancheng noticed this, he would sometimes deliberately make a small gesture, such as raising his hand and moving his nose, frowning, or picking his nails, licking his lips, etc.

He found that whenever he did these little actions, Mr. Ma would focus on a question and ask it over and over again, or even suddenly go back and ask again a question he had asked before.

After finding out that this was indeed the case, he stopped playing and just cooperated obediently.

"Comrade Li Yancheng, why did Ren Yunyun, or the organization behind her, want to kill you? According to the information I have obtained, this is not the first attack against you.

According to what I know, two people followed you before, and one person came to the entrance of your office to look for you. Then Qi Jilin had the chance to run away but he didn't, instead he went to look for you, and then there was Ren Yunyun who poisoned your water cup.

Can you explain to me why they are targeting you so persistently? "

This time Li Yancheng did not rush to speak, but asked first if he could smoke. After getting an affirmative answer, he took out a cigarette from the left chest pocket of his jacket and lit it for himself. After spitting out the smoke in his mouth, he spoke slowly.

"Team Leader Ma, I don't know if you really don't know why they want to kill me, or if you are just following the procedure to ask questions. Anyway, no matter what the reason is, I can't answer this question for you.

Many people know the reason, including our Director Xu and Deputy Director Su, the two section chiefs of our investigation department, the captains of the two action teams, the director and Director Zhong. By the way, your Director Tang also knows it.

You can try to see if they will tell you the reason, but I definitely won’t tell you.”

"Comrade Li Yancheng, you are currently under investigation by us. Please answer the questions directly."

The person who said this was the staff member who had been taking notes next to Team Leader Ma. After hearing what Li Yancheng said, he raised his head and stared at this side closely, speaking word by word.

Li Yancheng just glanced at him, not even bothering to give him an extra expression, and continued to look at the man surnamed Ma.

Team leader Ma had already frowned tightly. Just as he opened his mouth to say something, the door of the conference room was pushed open from the outside and the person who came in was Tang Aijun, director of the Security Department.

The people who came in behind him were Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong. They both had dark and ugly faces. The last two people who came in were people Li Yancheng had never seen before. They looked like they were from the Security Department.

After seeing clearly who came in, Team Leader Ma and the man beside him stood up immediately.

"Director"

Director Tang didn't even look at the two of them. He walked straight up to Li Yancheng and stretched out his right hand with a smile on his face.

"Doctor Li, I'm really sorry. They didn't understand the meaning of that list and made you feel wronged. You are not on the list of people being questioned this time."

Li Yancheng looked at Lao Xu and Su Xiaotong who were following behind Director Tang in some surprise. Seeing them both nodded at the same time, he shook the hand that Tang Aijun extended.

"Director Tang, it's okay. It's not a big deal."

"Is this Doctor Li's service gun?"

"right"

"Please put it away first."

"Yancheng, come out with us first." At this time, Lao Xu at the back spoke, and he raised his chin and gestured towards the door of the conference room.

"Oh, okay, Director Tang, can I leave now?"

"Of course, Doctor Li, please do as you wish."

Putting the gun handed to him by Tang Aijun back on his waist, Li Yancheng glanced at Team Leader Ma who was standing there with his head down and the person who was taking notes, then walked out.

"Director Tang, we're leaving now. Please handle your own business first. If you need to ask anyone later, send someone out to notify them. Everyone in our department will cooperate unconditionally."

"Thank you Director Xu for your cooperation."

Although there was something else behind Lao Xu's words, Director Tang still had a smile on his face, as if he didn't understand what he meant.

Lao Xu did not push his luck any further. He just turned around and stared at Team Leader Ma for a moment, then turned around and walked out of the meeting room.

Su Xiaotong did not follow him out. He did not say anything to Director Tang. Instead, he walked up to Team Leader Ma and patted him on the shoulder.

"Ma Hongda, you did a great job. I'll remember what happened today. Let's wait and see."

After saying that, Su Xiaotong turned around and nodded to Tang Aijun, who looked helpless, then walked towards the door of the conference room.

Looking at his back, Tang Aijun shook his head, signaled his men to close the door of the conference room, and then walked over to where Li Yancheng had just sat and sat down.

"Ma Hongda, you heard what Su Xiaotong said just now. Well, since you have made a grudge with him, I won't say anything.

I wanted to ask you why you didn't obey orders and follow the mission instructions, but now there's no need. You should go and ask the person behind you to see if he is willing to offend Su Xiaotong in order to protect you."

At this point, Director Tang pointed at Ma Hongda, whose face had turned extremely ugly, and said, "Now, take him away from me immediately. If you say one more word of nonsense, I will immediately ask the first department to lock you two up in the back. If you don't want to leave, then don't leave."

Ma Hongda was about to say something, but when he heard the director say this, his lips trembled and he quickly closed them tightly. He raised his hand and touched the person next to him, and the two of them turned around and walked towards the door of the conference room.

Ma Hongda seemed to be in better condition, although his face looked extremely ugly, but at least he walked steadily. The man following behind him was not so good. He staggered with every step and it seemed as if he could fall down at any time.

Looking at the embarrassed figures of the two people, Tang Aijun, who was sitting there, sighed, raised his hand and pointed at the notebook that the guy who had just recorded had not taken away.

"Xiao Meng, bring the record book over here for me to see."

Xiao Meng, who was called, quickly walked over and took the notebook. Tang Aijun took it and flipped through it. When he saw what the last question was, his face suddenly turned dark.

He just received a call from Su Xiaotong and learned that Ma Hongda did not follow his arrangements. He knew that this guy must have bad intentions, and it turned out to be true.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside. Tang Aijun was startled at first, then he realized something. He dropped the notebook in his hand and hurriedly got up and walked out.

When he walked out of the conference room door, he saw Ma Hongda and another person, whom he had just driven out, being escorted into the second door by members of an action team.

"Director Xu, Deputy Director Su, this..."

Turning around and seeing Xu Guishan and Su Xiaotong still in the front yard, Tang Aijun walked over and spoke as he walked, as if he wanted to plead for the two men.

"Director Tang, Ma Hongda and Xia Huosheng are suspected of inquiring about top-secret matters. They must be investigated here. There is no room for negotiation. Even if several leaders from the bureau come over, I will still say the same thing.

Unless the bureau orders me to be removed, I will investigate this matter thoroughly to find out who gave them the courage. "

Without waiting for Tang Aijun to finish his words, Lao Xu half turned around and looked at him.

"Director Xu, since you said so, I will also speak frankly. Who is behind Ma Hongda? I think Deputy Director Su must have told you. If you do this, you will lose more than you gain."

"I don't care who he is. If that person has the guts, just come find me."

"I...ah...Deputy Director Su..."

"Director Tang, on this issue, I agree with our director. This loophole must not be opened.

Look at what our bureau has become now. Things that are decided at a meeting in the morning are known by people thousands of miles away in the afternoon.

Does this still look like a confidential unit? This is simply a hornet's nest, with leaks everywhere.

Comrade Lao Tang, you should quickly figure out how to plug these holes. You are the head of the security department, and this is your job."

Neither Lao Xu nor Su Xiaotong intended to give face to Tang Aijun.

Especially Lao Xu, he is very angry now.

He was tricked by Ma Hongda with a false order.

If Su Xiaotong hadn't come in time and felt something was wrong and called to verify it, this incident might have become a big deal today.

He didn't pull out his gun and shoot Ma Hongda directly, which shows that he has good emotional control.

To put it bluntly, I suffered from lack of familiarity.

Although Lao Xu came here in July last year, it has been more than half a year.

But when he first arrived, the First Division was under closed management. As the director, he could come in and out freely accompanied by relevant personnel, but because it was too troublesome, he rarely went out, unless he was investigating a case or attending a meeting in the bureau.

Therefore, he didn't know many intricacies of the bureau, and was tricked by a team leader today.

It would be strange if he could give face to Tang Aijun now.

Ma Hongda is from the Security Department. Although what he did today was obviously instructed by other people, he did come here on official business. Now that something has gone wrong, Director Tang, as his leader, has to take the blame.

Seeing that the director and deputy director of the first department were so tough, Tang Aijun could only smile awkwardly and didn't say anything more.

Lao Xu stopped talking while he was ahead and didn't continue the topic. Seeing that Director Tang was no longer planning to plead for mercy, he asked, "Director Tang, who are you going to talk to next? I'll arrange it for you."

"Uh... Director Xu, let's start with you. Deputy Director Su, you're next. Please also inform Deputy Director Wang that he's the third one."

"No problem, Director Tang, please rest assured. We will fully cooperate with normal work orders." Su Xiaotong nodded in response.

"Okay, Director Xu, please..."

"please……"

Watching the two people walk into the conference room one after another, and then watching the conference room door slowly close, Su Xiaotong glanced around the offices in the front yard.

As he glanced around, the people who were originally leaning on the windows to watch the fun left the windows and sat back at their desks obediently.

When I arrived this morning, the person on duty at the door was replaced by someone from the Security Department, and I also received a notice that no one was allowed to leave the unit without an order from the bureau. Then I heard that the Security Department wanted to talk to everyone one by one.

The scenes that happened next made everyone feel overwhelmed. Something had happened for sure, but everyone was still just guessing what it was.

Anyway, what they could see was that Director Xu and Director Su were both in a very bad mood. At this juncture, it was better for them to be obedient. Didn't they see that the two people from the Security Department were arrested by the action team?

Now no one dares to offend Director Su who is in a bad mood.

After taking a look around the front yard, Su Xiaotong walked towards the health room.

In the health room, Li Yancheng and Deputy Director Wang Hongli were chatting casually.

Lao Wang didn't go into the meeting room just now. He stayed outside. After Li Yancheng came out, he accompanied him to the health room.

Su Xiaotong came in and took out a cigarette and threw one to each of them. Seeing that Li Yancheng wanted to say something, he glared at him.

Seeing this, Li Yancheng smacked his lips and stopped talking. He struck a match to light a cigarette for Lao Wang first. Without paying any attention to Su Xiaotong who was staring at his cigarette, he simply pulled back to light it for himself and blew out the match.

His childish behavior made Su Xiaotong laugh, and Lao Wang also laughed out loud.

"Xiaotong, what is going on?"

No matter how funny it is, we still have to ask the right questions. Comrade Lao Wang is also confused now.

"Our bureau is like a sieve right now. Any secret can be easily leaked out. The bureau leader has ordered a thorough investigation. The bureau has already started since last night. Anyone who can be contacted or found was asked to return to the bureau for investigation at midnight last night."

No wonder it’s such a big deal!

Li Yancheng and Wang Hongli looked at each other and saw a hint of shock in each other's eyes.

Su Xiaotong lit his own cigarette, exhaled the smoke and said, "Yancheng, the trip to Qin Province has been cancelled."

"Huh? Why?"

"Because the prisoner we were going to interrogate had a sudden heart attack and died the night before yesterday. Why would we go there?"

I……

The shock this news brought to Li Yancheng was much greater than the thorough investigation that the bureau had to conduct.

Dead? And he died the night before. No wonder the bureau leaders were furious and demanded a thorough investigation. It would be strange if the news had not leaked from the bureau.

"Xiaotong, are you sure that person died of a heart attack? No, no, no, I should say, are you sure that person is dead? Could it be that..."

"Sure." Su Xiaotong nodded before Li Yancheng could finish his words.

"The Qin Province has quickly arranged for someone to perform an autopsy on the body. Even if the person took drugs to disguise himself, he would be completely dead after the autopsy.

According to the Qin Province, their forensic examination determined that the cause of death was indeed myocardial infarction."

Myocardial infarction?

Li Yancheng frowned and thought for a while.

"Xiaotong, can you get in touch with Qin Province?"

"I can't do that. I need to contact the bureau leader."

"They haven't dealt with the body yet?"

"I'm not sure, I don't think so."

"Contact your leader and have him contact Qin Province. If the body has not been processed yet, it must have been frozen. Ask them to send a forensic doctor to check if there are any needle marks on the body."

"What are you looking for the eye of a needle for?"

"If there are needle marks, and the deceased has not had any injections in the past few days, then that person is most likely murdered."
