Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 201 Prepare for a rainy day
The backyard conference room is very lively at the moment.

Several directors and deputy directors in the bureau, and even Director Dong, came over to join in the fun.

However, he probably knew that he was unwelcome, so he just showed up in front of several leaders at the headquarters and then left.

Because what Wu Lihua confessed was related to several criminal cases at the police station, several relevant leaders from the municipal bureau were also invited.

Several leaders from the headquarters got together today, which was a rare occasion. On normal days, they were always busy with this and that, and might not even be able to show up for meetings, but today, they all showed up here together.

The people who interrogated Wu Lihua started out as Li Yancheng and Su Xiaotong, then were replaced by Lao Xu and Tang Aijun. After a short break at noon, they were replaced by Tian Linjun and Sun He.

Over the past twenty years, she and Li Xueyi have worked together on many cases, some successful and some failed.

Some of these cases have been solved, while others have not. The case files piled on the conference room table are each thirty to forty centimeters high, and there are more than ten piles in total.

These case files are not only from the Social Affairs Bureau, but also include those transferred from the Public Security Bureau.

The current situation is that the unsolved cases are not a big deal, as long as the details she provided match the description in the case files, the case can be closed. However, there are problems with the cases that have already been solved.

To be honest, many people are waiting for news from the public security department at their units, as well as those from the Social Affairs Bureau, in a state of panic.

The real perpetrator is being interrogated, but the case she committed has been solved. This...

Only you know who has the bigger headache.

……

Li Yancheng in the front yard finished his meal, smoked a cigarette and chatted with the chef on duty for a while, then strolled out of the kitchen. Just as he walked to the door of the health room and was about to go in to rest, the attendant on duty at the gate was standing at the corner, gesticulating to attract his attention.

Seeing the attendant waving at him, he looked around and found no one else, so he raised his arm and pointed at himself. When he saw the attendant nod, he was sure that he was looking for him, so he walked over there.

Maybe it was because all the leaders were in the backyard, the duty officer who used to shout at the top of his lungs was much more restrained today.

"What's wrong Tiecheng?"

"Doctor Li, there's someone at the gate looking for you. His name is Jin Zhihai, and his work permit is from the Public Security Bureau's criminal investigation department."

Hearing that it was Jin Zhihai who came to see him, Li Yancheng was slightly startled and hurried towards the gate.

"He's my childhood friend and our neighbor. Why is he here?"

"Haha, he's in criminal investigation. He must be worried about what Wu Lihua confessed."

"what?"

Li Yancheng became even more confused after hearing this. What does what Wu Lihua confessed have to do with the police?

Because he did not inquire about specific cases, he had no idea what Wu Lihua and Li Xueyi had done before. He also did not know that some cases were not reported to the police because they were homicides or thefts and there were no clear clues.

After he brought Jin Zhihai into the health room and sat him down to listen, he realized that there were so many things going on.

No wonder...

No wonder there was so much resistance when Li Xueyi was identified as the number one suspect in the instrument factory case some time ago.

No wonder there is so much resistance to bringing Wu Lihua to trial.

It seems that there are too many people and things involved here.

Li Yancheng pouted and shook his head, then reached out to pick up the cigarette on the table and gave one to Jin Zhihai.

"Why, is Director Tian also in trouble?"

"He just wanted me to ask you about it."

"I was not involved in the specific case. If I hadn't heard from you, I wouldn't have known that you were involved.

How about this, Zhihai, you sit here first, I'll go to the back to check the situation, there's water in the pot, pour it yourself if you want to drink it."

Of course he has to care about his good brother's affairs.

Although Jin Zhihai would not be involved in any case, he was able to stay in the Municipal Bureau because of Director Tian. If something happened to Tian and he was transferred back, it would definitely have an impact on his future development.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute"

Seeing that Li Yancheng was about to leave, Jin Zhihai quickly grabbed his arm.

"Didn't you say that the leaders of your bureau and headquarters are all in the back? Wouldn't it be a bad idea for you to go over now?"

Although he did come here to find out some information, he would rather not ask if it would affect his brothers.

"It's okay. I was the one who pried open Wu Lihua's mouth. The leaders hadn't arrived yet when I was asleep this morning. Now that I'm up, it's normal for me to show my face. Please take a seat first."

"Then...Is it okay for me to be alone here with you?"

"Just sit here and don't run around."

"That's fine. I'll ask you about it, but I won't let it affect you."

"Don't worry, it won't affect you."

There were quite a few people in the backyard, especially those from the headquarters. The secretaries and security guards around them all moved benches to the yard and sat on them.

Although there are quite a few houses in the backyard, they are either interrogation rooms, detention rooms, rest rooms for duty officers, or information rooms for storing various files. Even the insiders cannot enter and exit freely, let alone outsiders.

It was impossible for these people to stay in the front yard away from their leaders, so they could only make do in the yard.

In the conference room, the interrogation of Wu Lihua was still going on. The leaders just sat aside and listened quietly, without anyone interrupting.

This woman has an extraordinary memory. She remembers almost every case she has handled clearly.

Her excellent memory was also the culprit that caused her to slide into the abyss step by step.

It was because Xiao Rizi discovered this characteristic of her that he brought her from the orphanage to the training class. After the training, he sent her there. With her extraordinary memory, she completed many tasks assigned by Xiao Rizi and gradually gained a foothold there.

Li Yancheng did not enter the meeting room after he came over. Even if he was a thick-skinned person, he could not just go in like that.

As soon as he showed his face, Director Zhong, who was facing the window, saw him, stood up and walked out.

Seeing Director Zhong extending his right hand as soon as he came out, Li Yancheng first stood at attention and saluted, then shook it.

"Hello, Director Zhong!"

"Thank you"

There was gratitude in Director Zhong's eyes, but more importantly, relief.

The tragedy that happened at home has tormented him for more than 20 years. Today, the truth was finally revealed. The day after tomorrow is Qingming Festival. Even though he cannot go to the grave to burn paper in the current environment, he can silently tell his relatives in his heart when he kowtows towards the direction of Jinshi at home.

"It should."

Director Zhong came out to say thank you to Li Yancheng in person. To him, this matter certainly could not be let go with just a thank you, but the rest would come later.

After he went in, the door of the house next to the conference room opened, and the captain of the second action team, Wang Maofei, poked his head out and called out in a low voice.

"Doctor Li"

"Hey, Captain Wang, you are here."

When Lao Xu and Tang Aijun were interrogating the case in the morning, Wang Maofei was the recorder, and Li Yancheng came over just to find him.

The room next to the meeting room is very small, equivalent to a tea room. Now only Wang Maofei and a member of the second team are here.

"Captain Wang, I just happened to be looking for you." As soon as he entered, Li Yancheng gave a cigarette to everyone.

"What's the matter, Doctor Li? Tell me."

"When you were recording inside this morning, how much of Wu Lihua's confession involved the police?"

"Public security? There were four or five cases. At that time, the director contacted the bureau office and asked them to communicate with the municipal bureau of public security and asked them to bring the files over. What case do you want to know about?"

Wang Maofei knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. There must be someone from the public security department who was trying to get information and got it back to Doctor Li.

"Are there any members of the Second Criminal Investigation Division of the Municipal Bureau involved in those cases?"

“No.” Wang Maofei shook his head without even thinking. “So far, there have been seven cases involving the police. Five of them are from the lower branches, and two are from the Criminal Investigation Department. There are no cases from the Second Department, at least not yet.”

After taking a puff of cigarette, he continued, "In fact, they themselves know best whether there was any misconduct in the investigation. The Wuxuan District Public Security Bureau and the Pingchang County Public Security Bureau have basically confirmed that there are problems with two closed cases.

There is a problem with a case in the Third Division of our bureau. It is not clear whether there will be any problems in the future. The problem in our division is not big. When Li Xueyi was there, although there were several cases in which people were arrested and sentenced, it was clearly marked on the files that some accomplices had not yet appeared.

Whether it was when Director Zhong was the director of our department or when Director Lao Ding was alive, there were strict regulations that any case with doubtful points would not be closed.

Because of this, there were many complaints from the subordinates, but looking back today, it’s no wonder that they can become leaders, they are indeed far-sighted. "

The people below must have a lot of complaints. Not being able to close a case means that there is no way to be rewarded, that those cases cannot be put aside, and that the rate of solving cases here is low. Deputy Director Zhong was the first director of the Beijing Social Affairs Bureau after its establishment. He set a rule at the time that overly violent methods were not allowed to be used when interrogating suspects. This rule has continued to this day.

The formulation of this rule attracted a lot of criticism, which resulted in the crime-solving rate of this place being the most reliable even though it was not high.

I feel more at ease today.

After finding out what he wanted, Li Yancheng chatted here for a few more words and then left and went back to the front.

When he came back, Su Xiaotong had already gotten up and was chatting with Jin Zhihai at his place.

"You're up now, why don't you go to the back? So many leaders are here."

"Don't worry, I just asked the kitchen to prepare something for me to eat. I'll come over after I finish eating. Okay, you two can chat while I go eat. Zhihai, don't you want to eat?"

"I've had my meal, Su Chu. Please enjoy your meal."

"Okay, take a seat, we'll talk some other time."

"okay"

……

"Your director can rest assured for now. So far, no cases involving your department have been found."

After Su Xiaotong left, facing Jin Zhihai's inquiring gaze, Li Yancheng didn't waste any words and directly told him the news he had heard.

"Huh... I'm glad you're okay."

"Isn't it clear to your Uncle Tian whether it's okay or not?"

"He's a little unsure."

"Oh, why don't you just stop handling those half-baked cases? Look at Su Xiaotong, he eats when he's supposed to, sleeps when he's supposed to, and he doesn't say that he's not afraid of being held accountable because he has someone to protect him. He just has a clear conscience and knows that the cases he's handled can stand up to scrutiny."

"You're right." Jin Zhihai nodded in agreement: "It is true that no matter what you do, you must live up to your conscience, but if your conscience is eaten by a dog, then there is nothing you can do."

"Well, he has no conscience, so what can you expect from him?"

"Dacheng, are you going home tonight?"

"I should go back. Now all that's left is the interrogation. I don't plan to participate. If there's nothing else, I'll go back."

"How do you feel about this business trip to Qin Province?"

"In one word, tired. In three words, extremely tired. Anyway, I will definitely not go out in the future if I can avoid it." Li Yancheng's face twitched when he mentioned business trips.

If possible, he said he didn't want to go on business trips again before the high-speed rail was built because it was too painful.

"Ha ha……"

Looking at his good brother’s wrinkled face, Jin Zhihai was so happy.

"Let me tell you something happy."

"What's the matter?" Upon hearing that there was something happy, Jin Zhihai stopped laughing and asked curiously.

"My buddy's lifelong affairs are basically settled."

"What did you say? Real or fake?"

Jin Zhihai stood up suddenly, with an expression of surprise and joy on his face.

"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you about this?"

"The woman is... um? Did you go to see Luo Min when you went to Qin Province this time?"

"You're quick! Sit down and talk. It's not tiring to stand."

"It's really Luo Min, hey! I have to say it, what Aunt Zhao in the front yard said last year was really right."

"What did Aunt Zhao say?"

"Last summer, when you were quarantined and not allowed to leave the office, one night when we were chatting at the gate and talking about who looked like a couple, she directly said that Luo Min and you looked the most like a couple.

Later, something happened to the Luo family, and Luo Min left us. Aunt Zhao said that you two were not meant to be together, but I didn’t expect that you two would eventually continue your fate.”

At this point, Jin Zhihai frowned: "Dacheng, when will Luo Min come back? You two can't be together thousands of kilometers apart, right? Can she come back?"

"She can definitely come back. Her household registration was directly registered in the rural area where she was sent to work. She has never been to the local area. She is like an educated youth from Beijing. As long as we find her a job here, she will be able to come back.

Now it all depends on how to deal with her relationship with her family. As long as she agrees, Mr. Luo’s old comrades will definitely be willing to help.”

"Well, I hope she can come back soon. It's time for you to end your single life. Look at what your life is like now. Since you came here to work last July, you said you have lived at home several times.

So, Dacheng, let's find some time to exchange the house back, and you can do it as soon as possible after she comes back."

"Oh, there's no need to rush. Why do you say that wind can rain? Even if she comes soon, it will still take several months. It's impossible for her to come back immediately. It's also impossible for me to drag her to get the marriage certificate as soon as she comes back, right? There's no need to rush."

Li Yancheng explained with a bit of a smile.

"No, time flies by. My mother-in-law wants to go back after living here for such a long time. Let her take Peng Peng back with her so that weaning can begin.

When the time comes, we will clean up your house together. At least the ceiling needs to be re-painted, and the walls need to be re-painted as well. Then we can ask Lao Zhu if he can get us some paint, and then we can paint the wood and other things.

Find someone to make a few more pieces of furniture, including a large wardrobe. Your wardrobe is so small, you can't expect that when Luo Min gets married, she won't have anywhere to put her clothes, right?
Her parents definitely won't be able to help her, so you have to prepare the bedding.

Also, you have to get some clothes for Luo Min as well, right?

I tell you Dacheng, there are a lot of things to do, it's not as simple as you think.

If her parents were there, that would be easy, and they would have to prepare some things for her, but her case is a special one.

But no matter what the situation is, we can't let others down, lest others talk about us."

Li Yancheng was confused. His mind was completely occupied by the case and he really hadn't thought about these things. Now that he thought about it, there were indeed a lot of things that needed to be prepared in advance.

Treated poorly?

He didn't think so.

Not to mention that he has his own family and will definitely come back in the future. Even if you marry an orphan like him, you can't let others think you are bullying him.

"How about this, Zhihai, don't rush to ask me to exchange the house with you. When you have time in the next two days, help me figure out what needs to be done."

He really had no idea what to do and what preparations were needed to get married nowadays. After all, Jin Zhihai had been through it all and knew much more than he did.

As for the last time I got married with Chen Yunwei, it was a very simple style with almost nothing done.

"No problem. Invite Uncle Zhao as well. Mingliang got married last year. Uncle Zhao knows best what to do."

"Row"

"Hey!" Jin Zhihai happily patted his good brother on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, you are great. You have solved your lifelong problem by going on a business trip. You are complaining about being tired, but it is not in vain.

How did you figure it out? You always said before that there was no rush."

"Oh..." Speaking of this, Li Yancheng sighed and told his good brother about what happened in the unit.

Jin Zhihai was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "It's not wrong for her to have concerns, Dacheng, you're not thinking of just making do with it because of this, right? This is not fair to Luo Min."

"I'm not that bad. If I really want to just settle for someone, why don't I just find someone nearby? That would be much easier. Why would I have to go look for her?"

"You're right. Well, it's almost time to get off work. I'll go back and give our leader a message. We'll talk when you get back."

"Okay, come on, I'll take you out. How did you get here?"

"I'm riding a bicycle. It's parked outside."

"Next time you come, don't save it, just push it in."

"It's nothing, but I don't want to come here. It's too strict. I was questioned for a long time even though I was wearing a police uniform."

"We can't help it. There are so many leaders in the backyard, and there are many suspects detained here. The security is indeed much stricter now than before."

"Yes, I forgot about the suspect you have here. This case should be almost over."

"almost!"

"That's good."
