Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 537 Innocence
Jiang Yong knew very well that for him, whether he confessed or not, the result would be the same. From today on, he only had one way to go, and that was to be taken out for shooting.

On the wall opposite him were written in large letters: "Leniency to those who confess, severity to those who resist." However, leniency is only for those who can be lenient, and not for people like him who have committed unforgivable crimes.

He just didn't believe that if he took the initiative to confess and truthfully confessed all his crimes, he would be spared from death.

Since it made no difference whether he said it or not, he decided to say nothing. He wanted his wife to use this to gain a good attitude so that she could be sentenced to a lighter sentence.

I just hope that silly woman doesn't do anything stupid and just sit there saying nothing.

He was already regretting the look he had given his wife when they got in the car at the mountain house just now.

He didn't expect that Pan Suqing next door had already told him everything about his past.

Of course, he wouldn't care even if she knew. He was going to die anyway. He already felt a little sorry for his wife, so this would give him some peace of mind.

……

"Du? In your 50s or 60s?"

In Jin Zhihai's office, Li Yancheng leaned lazily on the sofa, listening to the deputy chief of the pre-trial section who was in charge of interrogating Dong Hongjun come to report on the interrogation.

When he heard that the man behind Jiang Yong was quite old and his surname was Du, his brows furrowed deeply.

The only person he could think of who met these conditions and had considerable power was Du Zhengyi from Wuxuan.

This person is nothing. The key is his old leader, Che Zhendong, the second-ranked deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Organization and director of the Beijing Municipal Supervisory Committee, a relatively rare surname.

Moreover, as far as he knew, this Du Zhengyi seemed to have been transferred from Rouhuai to Wuxuan at the end of 1977 or 1978.

Not only that, if he remembered correctly, Du Zhengyi was once implicated by his old leader, Director Che, and stayed in the countryside for several years. He only returned from the countryside after Director Che was reinstated at the end of the 27th year of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

As soon as he was transferred back, Director Che assigned him to work in Rouhuai, and two years later he was transferred to Wuxuan.

It seems that this Du Zhengyi has a close relationship with the Rouhuai incident that is currently under investigation. My actions over there may have touched the old man's sore spot, otherwise, he would not have taken the risk of arranging people to frame him.

I just don’t know whether this is what Director Che meant.

For a moment, Li Yancheng was a little troubled.

He hadn't slept for three days and two nights, so his brain was working a little slowly and he didn't know how to deal with this matter.

No matter how impossible it is, if he doesn't respond at all when others bully him, then he is a complete coward.

He is the kind of person who will give me a foot and I will give him a yard. But if you dare to slap me, I will definitely beat you until you are half paralyzed.

I would never do anything as stupid as repaying evil with kindness.

What he needs to consider now is first what role Director Che plays here.

Also, what about Deputy Director Xia who led the team to Rouhuai to take over the case and conduct an investigation? Did anyone give him a heads-up before he went there, asking him to keep the Rouhuai incident within a controllable range as much as possible?
"If you ask me, don't think about anything. Go back and have a good sleep. Then think about it when you wake up tomorrow."

Just when Li Yancheng was using his almost rusted brain to think hard, Jin Zhihai came back from the bathroom and started muttering as soon as he entered the room.

"Come over tomorrow, or I'll go to the police station. After you read the complete confession, we can consider how to resolve the issues behind it."

"Jingle Bell"

Before Jin Zhihai finished speaking, the phone on the desk rang.

As he walked over to answer the phone, he continued, "Did you hear what I said? Go back and have a rest."

"I heard you. Answer your call."

"Hello, I'm Jin Zhihai."

"Boss Jin, I'm in the general duty room. Is Director Li in your place?"

"Uh...Yes, Director Li is on the phone, right?"

"right"

"Okay, wait a moment."

Although Li Yancheng, who was leaning on the sofa, could not hear the voice on the phone, he heard what Jin Zhihai said. Seeing that the call was for him, he stood up.

"Yes, it's from the general duty room of the bureau."

"I am Li Yancheng..."

"Director Li, I'm Xiao Gao from the general duty room, Gao Zhonghua."

"Well, what's the matter?"

"Director Li, Director Che Zhendong from the city called you just now and asked you to call him back when it's convenient.

Director Che said he didn't go to work today and was resting at home. His home phone number is..."

"I know his home phone number. Anything else?"

"Director Li is gone."

"Okay, that's it."

After saying that, Li Yancheng put down the phone, and at the same time, his brows were deeply furrowed.

Che Zhendong must have come to him for Du Zhengyi's matter, there is absolutely no doubt about that.

But what exactly did he want to say?
Let yourself let that guy go?
This shouldn't be the case! He felt that this car manager shouldn't be so incompetent.

He had dealt with Director Che before. That was the year before last, around 1978. At that time, the Beijing Municipal Supervisory Commission received an anonymous letter of complaint.

Under normal circumstances, if the Supervisory Commission encounters such an anonymous report letter, it will ignore it unless it provides detailed clues or evidence.

Because they encounter this kind of situation so many times, if they investigate each one, then they won't have to do anything else.

But at that time, the director of the Third Supervision and Inspection Office had just been promoted and was eager to make some achievements, so he asked for the letter of complaint and personally led people to investigate according to the not very clear clues provided by his superiors.

This time he checked and actually found something.

Following the vague clues provided in the report letter, three people discovered a key figure and quickly took him under control.

This person had evidence of another person's illegal activities, but he refused to cooperate with the work of the Supervisory Commission. After being arrested, he not only refused to explain the problem, but also engaged in self-harm.

After being rescued, he didn't say a word and adopted a passive resistance.

The Supervisory Commission has tried every possible means but has been unable to get this person to speak, so it can only seek help from the public security, courts and other departments.

In the end, it was Li Yancheng, who was recommended by the Municipal Public Security Bureau to the Municipal Supervisory Commission and was already working at the Social Affairs Bureau headquarters, who took this man down.

Thinking of this, Li Yancheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought of a key point.

Director Che may not know what Du Zhengyi has done.

The frame-up against him by Mr. Du could not possibly have been instigated by Director Che.

Because Director Che had seen his interrogation methods, this level of frame-up was child's play for him and would not cause even the size of a pinpoint of damage.

"What are you thinking about? Why did the General Duty Office call you?"

Just then, Jin Zhihai spoke.

"Du Zhengyi's old boss is looking for me."

"Ah? So fast! Wow, I didn't notice before, our team is like a sieve."

? ? !

Hearing this, Li Yancheng raised his eyebrows. Yes, we have just obtained the confession and learned that the mastermind behind the incident is named Du, and it is very likely Du Zhengyi. This news has also been known in other places, and not only that, they have also called us.

"It looks like we need to clean up here too!"

Li Yancheng looked at his good brother standing in front of him and spoke earnestly.

“Uh…” Jin Zhihai was slightly startled, and after noticing the meaningful look from his brother and leader, he slowly nodded.

"Yes, it's time to sort it out. It just so happens that a new official has three things to do when he takes office. The first fire you set was in Rouhuai, and the second fire must be in Wuxuan. So let's leave the third fire to ourselves, so that others won't accuse you of starting a fire at random."

"No..." Li Yancheng shook his head and said, "You are a new official, so you should be the one to light this fire. My third fire, if kept in your hands, will be a curse on other people's heads."

Jin Zhihai's eyes narrowed, he understood what his good brother meant.

But it was precisely because he heard it that he was so surprised.

The leadership of the corps is composed of a captain, a political commissar, and three deputy captains.

There was a vacancy for the deputy captain, and it was obviously left for Li Yancheng to solve.

Not to mention the vacancies, there is also a political commissar there.

One of the job responsibilities of the political commissar is to assist administrative leaders in carrying out daily management work.

He is only a deputy captain, and his qualifications are not as good as Zhu Dongjun. He believes that he was able to become the deputy captain this time because of his good brother.

Why did he start a fire in the headquarters?

Seeing his eyes, Li Yancheng knew what he was thinking, and raised his hand and patted his shoulder with a smile.

"Whether it's Political Commissar Wan, Deputy General Manager Zhu, or you, you are all new in office. After all, the Criminal Investigation Corps is new. Although the foundation is the original three criminal investigation departments, they are different.

If the two of them want to start a fire, as long as it is for work and not for personal gain, I will also support it. "

Facing the brother he grew up with, Li Yancheng spoke very straightforwardly without playing any vague or pretentious tricks.

“Although I will often work at the headquarters in the future, as you know, I am still the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau, and I will definitely have a lot of other work to do.

And you know that I have other part-time jobs, and I might be called away at any time.

Here, I need someone I can trust completely to help me guard the place, and who else can it be but you?

Zhihai, this is my base. Only if this place is good, I will have a future and be worthy of talking about the future.

However, my promotion to power has blocked the way for many people. These people are hoping that something will happen to me so that they can take my place.

When it comes to employing people, I have always adhered to the attitude of trusting people when employing them and not employing people if I don't trust them, but even if I trust others, it is limited trust.

But we are different, and I hope you can help me."

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you protect this home."

"Not only help me, but also help yourself. You must achieve some results."

“Uh…” Jin Zhihai was feeling a little agitated.

Although after knowing that Li Yancheng would temporarily take over the position of captain, there were many rumors throughout the bureau.

In these rumors, he is another protagonist of the story, some of which are extremely sour.

The things that were rumored to happen made him both excited and terrified.

His rank of deputy director was only promoted not long ago. When the Criminal Investigation Corps was established, only three of the dozen directors and deputy directors of the three criminal investigation departments remained here, and the others were all assigned to other jobs.

He believed that he was able to stay because of his good brother, but when he heard such rumors later, he felt mixed emotions.

Today I heard a positive answer from my good brother, which is completely different from the rumors.

"Don't think too much now. Everything will be possible only if you do your job well first."

"I understand." Jin Zhihai just nodded, and suddenly realized that he had gone off topic, and asked quickly: "We were talking about your business, why are you getting off topic? What does Director Che want to see you for?"

"I don't know. I was just planning to call him back."

As he spoke, Li Yancheng picked up the phone again, recalled it briefly, and then dialed four times on the dial.

Director Che seemed to have been waiting by the phone. As soon as it rang, he picked up the phone immediately.

"I'm Che Zhendong."

"Director Zhendong, I'm Li Yancheng. I heard from the duty officer in our bureau's general duty room that you have something to talk to me about?"

"Director Li, I'm so sorry to bother you."

"Director Zhendong, you are too polite. I wonder what instructions you have?"

Unlike the vertical management of the Social Affairs Bureau, the Public Security Bureau is under the dual leadership of the local government and the higher-level public security department, and even has a deeper local influence. After all, the power of personnel appointment and financial power are in the hands of the local government.

The higher-level public security departments provide more professional guidance to their subordinates, and only have the right to make recommendations on personnel matters.

As the second-ranked deputy director and director of the Supervisory Committee of the Beijing Municipal Organization, it was normal for Che Zhendong to call the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau to give some instructions.

However, this is not usually done because the organization has a deputy director in charge of the political and legal system, and the municipal government also has a deputy leader in charge of contacting the political and legal units. Any orders in the city are issued through these two people.

Or, the director or municipal government leader would call the Public Security Bureau chief over to assign tasks. It is rare for such a leader who is not in charge to give direct instructions to a deputy chief, unless the relationship between the two is very special.

But obviously, the relationship between Li Yancheng and Director Che has not reached that point yet.

"Haha, it's not really an instruction, it's not really an instruction, I just have something I want to consult with Director Li about."

"Please tell me."

"Director Li, I heard... Did something happen to Du Zhengyi from Wuxuan? Is he involved in a case you are investigating?"

Li Yancheng almost asked him who told him that, but the words were on the tip of his tongue but he held them back.

"Director Zhendong, we have a discipline. During the investigation of the case, all information is kept confidential."

He still couldn't help but stabbed the car manager from the side, telling him clearly that the person who passed the message to him was violating discipline.

His words made Director Che on the other end of the phone silent for a moment. After about three or five seconds, he chuckled and said, "Director Li, it is indeed my fault this time. I accept the criticism.

When the city holds a democratic life meeting for team members next quarter, I will ask Director Lin to invite Director Li to attend the meeting as well, and I will make sincere self-criticism at the meeting. "

The content of the phone call made Li Yancheng's eyes flash with surprise. He didn't expect that Director Che would admit his mistake so quickly, and even planned to make self-criticism at the democratic life meeting and invite him to attend.

Hey...what on earth is this trying to say?
Before he could continue thinking, Director Che on the other end of the phone continued speaking.

"Director Li, I came to you today not to plead for Du Zhengyi or anything. I just want to say that I know nothing about what he did, and I didn't expect that he could fall so quickly.

I contacted Lao Xia at noon today and listened to his general report on the Rouhuai case on the phone. After listening to it, there were only four words in my mind: shocking.

Here I would like to make a promise to Director Li that no matter who is involved in the case that happened in Rouhuai, our Supervisory Commission will investigate it to the end and will not tolerate it.

As for Du Zhengyi, you police should arrest him and try him when necessary without any scruples. What you need to consider are the evidence, witnesses and testimonies. You don't need to worry about other messy things. This is my attitude.

Comrade Yan Cheng, we have dealt with each other before, so you should have a certain understanding of me. Mr. Luo and I have known each other since the war years, so Mr. Luo should have a clear idea of ​​what kind of person I am. You can ask him when you get home."

Now that things have come to this, what else can Li Yancheng say? He can only choose to believe it.

But it is true that with his limited understanding of Director Che, he knows that this person is quite decent, but as the old saying goes, you can know a person's face but not his heart, not to mention that he can't even be considered as a person himself.

But it doesn't matter. Li Yancheng doesn't really care whether he said it positively or negatively. Just based on the fact that Du Zhengyi wanted to frame him, and if all his private actions were verified, he would definitely send this guy to the shooting range. No matter what anyone said, the result would not change.

"Director Zhendong, I understand your opinion. Don't worry, we will handle the case based on facts and the law. We will never wrongly accuse a good person, but we will never let any bad person go.

I can assure the organization that the cases we handle can withstand investigation by the organization."

"it is good"

Director Che, who had seen Li Yancheng's interrogation methods, was very confident in him.

The reason why he came here today was to explain the situation and prove his innocence.

If it were someone else, Director Che would definitely not do this, but Li Yancheng is different. His father-in-law is Vice President Luo. If he goes back and says something wrong, how will his leaders view him?

He is about to retire, and doesn't want to have another stain on his reputation.
