Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 186: Make up the numbers?

Facts have proved that Hong Dingguo did not lie.

He really didn't understand the stone, the black bee, or Li Xueyi before liberation.

This is the first time I know whether Li Yancheng is capable of this special interrogation method.

This alone is enough to remove him from the list of suspects.

Although today's interrogation has basically eliminated all doubts about him, he can only hold non-leadership positions in the future.

Because of what happened in the Second Office before, it showed that he still had big problems at work, and he had to give an explanation to both his superiors and subordinates.

After Hong Dingguo, who had fallen into a coma, was carried away, Director Zhong suddenly looked at Li Yancheng who was disinfecting acupuncture needles and spoke.

"Sincerity"

"arrive"

Hearing Director Zhong calling him, Li Yancheng quickly stopped what he was doing and looked over.

"You should have understood what Dingguo said before. He used to work in the concession in Tianjin. He must know something if he could say that. If you are interested in your life experience, you can talk to him privately later.

When the bureau checked your file before transferring you here, they found that you were probably from the Cheng family in Jinshi."

"Director Zhong, to be honest, Xiaotong told me this a long time ago, but I am really not interested in my background. My last name is Li now and will remain Li in the future.

If anyone says that I am a member of the Cheng family, please produce ironclad evidence. Don't even mention the resemblance. There are so many people in this world who look alike without any blood relationship.

So, let’s leave this topic for now, Director Zhong.”

"Okay." Director Zhong patted Li Yancheng's arm with a smile, turned around and walked to the table, picked up the notebook and began to look through it carefully.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lao Xu secretly gave this side a thumbs-up.

Seeing Lao Xu's thumbs up, Li Yancheng smiled slightly, lowered his head and continued to wipe the acupuncture needles he had just used with alcohol cotton wool.

Check background?
As long as his brain is not damaged, there is no way he can check it now.

No matter what the Cheng family did in the past, even if they were patriotic businessmen, even if they had provided great help to the organization, they were now abroad, and it would be of no benefit to Li Yancheng to become relatives with them.

Looking at the transcript in his hand, Director Zhong sighed heavily. It could be said that he gained nothing from Hong Dingguo.

In fact, if you think about it, everyone basically knows the situation after liberation. As for the period before liberation, the work they were engaged in strictly limited them to inquiring about the situation of their colleagues.

It's like if someone asks you about something, you definitely wouldn't want to.

Therefore, as long as this person does not have any special intentions, the information he can know is the information of his comrades in the same group, as well as his superiors and subordinates.

Putting the notebook on the table, Director Zhong lit a cigarette for himself, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Hong Kong Island is imperative. The important figures of the Chen family must be brought back for interrogation and trial. Yan Cheng..."

"arrive"

"It's not easy to bring living people back from there. Do you have any way to, for example, keep them from eating or drinking for days and nights and make them unable to move on their own, so that they can be manipulated by others?"

"I can put them into a coma, but it can't last more than 48 hours. This requires help from someone over there and support from someone over here. The person who helps over there must also be able to provide a safe hiding place."

"If you were allowed to go, would you have the confidence to complete the task?"

"Snapped"

Hearing the leader's question, Li Yancheng stood at attention and said in a firm tone: "Please rest assured, I will complete the task."

"Relax, relax"

Director Zhong smiled and stretched out his hand to press down: "This is not a formal occasion, we are just chatting privately.

Yancheng, your application has been submitted a long time ago. In principle, the bureau will definitely agree, but the higher-ups are still hesitant because you don't have the power to enforce the law in the past, so if something goes wrong you will have to bear the consequences yourself. There is actually very little help we can provide.

Of course, as you said about a safe hiding place and support, that will definitely be no problem.

But that's all. Xiaotong likes to do things without considering the consequences. I believe he didn't tell you about the many difficulties you would encounter there, and just urged you to go with him.

I will arrange for someone to have a formal talk with you later and explain to you all the problems you may encounter there. After that, you can think about it carefully and decide whether to go there or not. "

After saying this, Director Zhong turned to look at Lao Xu and said, "Guishan, don't rest tomorrow. Come to the bureau in the morning. Your application to access the old files has been approved. I will take you there tomorrow."

"Yes"

"Okay, that's all for today. Go home. I won't provide you with food here. You can go back and figure it out."

Director Zhong waved his hand to signal Lao Xu and Li Yancheng that they could leave, and was so stingy that he didn't even want to care about their food.

"Director Zhong is too stingy. I was hoping to have a meal at the office kitchen today, but he just sent us away. We worked for nothing all day."

In the yard of the bureau, after getting into the car, Li Yancheng couldn't help but complain.

"Haha, let's go. Squad Leader Cui is on duty in the cafeteria today. Let's go back and ask him to make us some noodles."

"It's hand-rolled. I don't eat dried noodles."

"Hey, you're such a picky person. If you want to eat rolled noodles, go roll them yourself."

"Leader, you are using people to move forward, not backward."

"That's right, what's the matter?"

"How can you say such shameless words so confidently?"

"You little brat, I think you'll tear the roof off the house if you don't get punished for three days."

"Ha ha……"

After chatting and joking for a while, Li Yancheng's expression returned to calm.

"Director, judging from the results of the interrogation just now, Hong Dingguo can be ruled out as a suspect, and Li Xueyi's suspicion has further increased.

But there is actually a question in my mind that is growing bigger and bigger.”

"tell me the story"

"His motives and some of the mysterious operations in this case, given Li Xueyi's power and means, as well as the resources he controls, the case should not have turned out this way.

For him, many things should be easy to do, but he managed to make a good meal into half-cooked rice. "

"You are wise after the event."

As soon as Li Yancheng finished speaking, Lao Xu gave his comment.

"Yan Cheng, you came to this conclusion by looking at the overall situation from a high vantage point, which is completely different from the concept of being in the middle of the matter.

To give a simple example, could he have predicted that you could make Pan Youwei, who was shot in the head, speak again?

If he could have foreseen this, do you think he would have let Pan Youwei fall into a coma like that? Definitely not. Given the situation at the time, he had the ability to make that guy completely die in the first place.

But because this was not anticipated, subsequent developments starting from this incident gradually deviated from the track he had set in advance.

There was another point he hadn’t expected.”

"What?" Li Yancheng asked curiously.

"He didn't expect that his superiors would arrange for him to work there. This appointment was actually very sudden."

"That shouldn't be the case. Personnel changes are never kept secret. The parties involved should have known about it a long time ago. Besides, Li Xueyi is not without a connection."

"You're right." Lao Xu nodded and continued, "But that's the general situation. Last year, our personnel adjustment was very sudden. You know, I didn't even have time to think about it.

I remember clearly that morning, I had just arrived at my former unit and was about to go on a business trip. All the procedures had been completed, when I suddenly received a call from Director Fang. He told me to get ready to work in Beijing.

Before I could react to what was happening, Director Fang had already hung up the phone. Then my boss at the time sent someone to find me and asked me to put my business trip aside and come here first.

I came here in a daze, first went through the handover procedures with Li Xueyi, and then went back to my original unit on a business trip. That's why I was not there when you came.

When I was going through the handover procedures with Li Xueyi, I could see that he was even more confused than I was.

Later, I talked with Director Fang and Director Zhong and found out that the order to transfer Li Xueyi to work there was issued overnight. They were asked to report the candidate for the director of the first department, and they were only given half an evening.

It was very sudden and caught everyone off guard."

Li Yancheng later heard from Jin Zhihai about the reason for this personnel adjustment, which was actually related to Chen Guangyao.

After this guy was caught, he started biting people to save his life, which led to many people on the committee being punished.

The police's operation to arrest Chen Guangyao was led by Li Xueyi's predecessor. He was also used as a punching bag by the people in the committee, and they would attack him desperately if they got any evidence against him.

As a last resort, he was transferred to work in another place, which was also a kind of protection for him.

He left, and the vacant position was very important, and it must not be taken away by those people on the committee, so there was a very sudden personnel adjustment overnight.

If the mastermind behind this is really Li Xueyi, then this adjustment may have completely disrupted all his plans.

This caused his subsequent arrangements to go wrong one after another.

Because everything is out of his control.

Especially the sudden appearance of Li Yancheng made his arrangements completely ineffective.

Another key figure here is Su Xiaotong.

Li Xueyi has been working in one place for quite a long time. Logically, all the people in that place should be his own.

But because of the presence of Su Xiaotong, the second generation, although he has enough experience and is strong enough, he has never been able to completely turn one place into his base.

He wanted to transfer this second generation out several times, but unfortunately he was powerless.

The main reason is that Su Xiaotong is not the kind of person who comes here to gain experience and get by, but is here to do real work. He is also easy-going and can get along well with his colleagues. He always takes the lead in everything, otherwise he would not have been shot.

All of the above reasons combined together have led to the current situation.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Li Xueyi is indeed the mastermind behind this.

"Director Fang? Director, you mean Director Fang..."

Before Li Yancheng could finish his words, Lao Xu suddenly turned the steering wheel and made a 180-degree turn.

"Yeah, how could I have forgotten Director Fang? Let's go to his house and have a chat."

"Go to Director Fang's house?" Li Yancheng's face was filled with confusion.

What the hell is this?

I'm still hungry.

I still want to go home.

I haven't gone home early to play with my godson for several days.

He smacked his lips, turned his head to look at Old Xu who had a serious look on his face, and after thinking for a while, he swallowed his words back.

If you encounter a few leaders who work so hard, it can really be life-threatening.

……

Just when Lao Xu took Li Yancheng to Director Fang's house, Su Xiaotong, who had been running around outside all day, finally got a piece of news from his uncle.

Regardless of the time, he went back to the office, got a letter of introduction, and drove to Qingyan Prison in Qingyan County with Sun He, the deputy chief of the investigation section.

Come here to meet a guy who was sentenced to life imprisonment in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China and was subject to restrictions on commutation of sentence.

When the prisoner was called out of the cell by the guards and brought to the interrogation room, he was completely dazed.

He couldn't remember how long it had been since he was interrogated, let alone at night.

He became even more confused when he saw that the people who came to interrogate him were two young men in their thirties at most.

"Government, are you going to interrogate me? I remember there was a person with the same name as me in the Sixth Prison, also called Zhang Dajiang, who was twenty years younger than me. Did you make a mistake?"

After being taken into the interrogation room by the guards and sitting on a fixed chair, the prisoner, who was already in his sixties, kindly reminded Su Xiaotong and Sun He who were sitting behind the table opposite him.

"If the Jiang Ye on the street before liberation is you, then it's correct."

"Uh... Hey, you really came to me. Rare, really rare. Are the police officers so young now? Why did you send two kids to interrogate me? Aren't your leaders worried that I won't cooperate?

I'm just wondering, I've been locked up here, no one has come to see me for so many years, why did you think of me today, you..."

This fellow named Zhang Dajiang started to chatter non-stop as soon as he sat down, looking like a piece of shit.

Yes, he was sentenced to life imprisonment and his sentence reduction was restricted. He is already over 60 years old and there is no hope for him in this life.

Even if he was allowed to go out now, he might still think twice, so he felt that he had nothing to be afraid of. Not to mention facing the people who came to interrogate him, he even dared to tease the guards.

"Zhang Dajiang, I'm from the Social Affairs Bureau, not the police, nor am I the prison guard you face all day. If you don't shut up and answer my questions honestly, I will move you to another place tomorrow and make sure you experience what it feels like to live a life worse than death."

Su Xiaotong took out a cigarette, lit it for himself, and said calmly.

gah...

Social Affairs Bureau?

Zhang Dajiang's eyes were as big as cowbells, and his mouth was half open for a long time before he closed it. He said angrily, "So you are from the Social Affairs Bureau. Ask whatever you want, but I want to make it clear first. You came to me to ask about things in the past. It's been so many years, I may not remember it."

"It's okay. I have plenty of ways to make you remember."

"you……"

"Stop talking nonsense. I ask questions and you answer them. If you can't remember, think about it later. If you can't remember it here, let's go to another place to think about it."

Su Xiaotong's face sank and his eyes narrowed slightly, and his momentum immediately rose. Zhang Dajiang's mouth twitched a few times, and he simply nodded: "Ask."

The guard standing nearby almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

He has been working here for three or four years. He is usually in charge of the second prison area where Zhang Dajiang is located. He has never seen this old man so well-behaved.

"I want to ask you about someone. Think carefully about whether you remember a person codenamed Stone, who is over there."

"Stone? Code name? Please give me an approximate time. The time range is too wide and I can't think of it."

"It should be around four or five years ago. I heard that he was responsible for doing the dirty work at the turnstile."

"Don't worry, let me think about it."

Hearing Zhang Dajiang say this, Su Xiaotong pushed the cigarette he had just put on the table towards Sun He, motioning him to go and light a cigarette.

Zhang Dajiang felt extremely comfortable smoking a cigarette, but he did not forget his business and was thinking hard.

After finishing a cigarette, he said hesitantly, "The stone you are talking about is not a person, right?"

"If not a human, then what is it?" Su Xiaotong glared.

Damn, are you trying to tell me that the stone is a monster?

"No, no, no, you misunderstood me. I meant the code name Stone. It's not used by one person."

"Just tell me everything you know."

"From what I know of Shi Tou, there are four of them in total. The first one was killed by Xiao Ri Zi. The second one is the most mysterious. We have only heard some rumors about it. No one knows whether it is a man or a woman. As for the second two, they are just there to make up the numbers. The first two are serious people who do dirty work and are active in the Beijing-Tianjin area."

"To make up the numbers? What do you mean?"

“Uh…” Zhang Dajiang glanced at Su Xiaotong cautiously, gritted his teeth and said, “I just heard about it, I don’t know what the real situation is.

I just heard that the last two stones seemed to be used to make someone from your side perform meritorious deeds. In fact, the two that were cleared out had not received formal training. "

After saying all this in one breath, Zhang Dajiang lowered his head deeply. He didn't want to bear the storm from the guy opposite.

Su Xiaotong and Sun He were both stunned.

If this is true...

"Zhang Dajiang, how come you remember it so clearly?"

Su Xiaotong took a deep breath and suppressed the anger that was rising in his heart.

"You should know what I did back then. In our place, all kinds of news were flying around, and actually quite a few people knew about this incident at the time.

Especially the last one, Shitou, he was a frequent visitor of a girl in my place. Others might not know whether he had the ability to do dirty work, but how could the girl who often greeted him not know?
He couldn't even hold my girl down if she struggled a little. How could he still do dirty work like this? Even sweeping the streets is too hard, right?
After he died, the girl I often saw even burned paper money for him.

Your people don’t go to places like mine, so maybe no one knows about these things.”

Although Zhang Dajiang's previous business was of low quality, that kind of place was indeed a gathering place for all kinds of information.

This guy just hasn't opened his eyes even after the liberation. Not to mention continuing to do that business, he even dares to play tough. If we don't deal with him, who else should we deal with?
