Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

Upon leaving the provincial party committee, the inspection team from Baijiang immediately began further interrogation of Gu Wangbei and others, while Zhongjiang simultaneously interrogated Gao Mingyuan, Wang Zheng, and others.

Yangcheng.

After Luo Shanhe and others finished their meeting, they had just stepped out of the conference room when they found Zhou Li, the Secretary-General of the Municipal Party Committee, and others waiting outside.

"Secretary Luo, Minister Qi, Director Lin."

Zhou Li stepped forward.

"Comrade Zhou Li, what's going on here?"

"Secretary Nie has invited the inspection team over to inquire about some matters. I wonder if it would be convenient for you or Minister Qi to come over?" Zhou Li said with a smile.

Does Nie Dahai want to see us?

Luo Shanhe and Qi Tongwei exchanged a glance and both guessed his intention.

"Oh, is that so? I'll go there. I also need to report some information to Secretary Nie," Luo Shanhe said, intending to go personally. "Comrade Tongwei, you should proceed immediately according to the original plan."

"Yes."

……

Yangcheng Municipal Committee.

Luo Shanhe got off the bus and walked into the building.

According to the discipline of inspection and case handling, family members involved in a case are not allowed to meet with the suspect privately or inquire about the case details.

But Nie Dahai has a special status and has been deeply involved in the local community for many years, so he has to give him face.

Furthermore, even if the other party makes any unreasonable demands, he can absolutely refuse.

office.

"Secretary Nie, Deputy Team Leader Luo is here."

Zhou Li walked up behind Nie Dahai, who was standing by the window smoking, and whispered.

"Oh, Comrade Shanhe has arrived."

Nie Dahai slowly turned around, the white hair growing at his temples was particularly striking, and a trace of weariness was hidden deep in his eyes.

"Hello, Secretary Nie."

Luo Shanhe stepped forward respectfully.

"Let's sit over there."

Nie Dahai pointed to the sofa in the distance.

The two walked over together and sat down one after the other.

After Zhou Li finished serving tea and left, Nie Dahai cut to the chase: "Comrade Shanhe, I heard that the inspection team has made a major breakthrough in the case?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Shanhe frowned, then quickly relaxed.

Indeed, within Yangcheng territory, right under his nose, it's virtually impossible to hide anything from Nie Dahai.

So he simply said, "That's right. After such a long investigation, we made a breakthrough today. Our inspection team just finished a meeting, and Secretary Chu from Baijiang has already issued follow-up instructions."

Nie Dahai paused in his hand as he reached for a cigarette, then handed one to Luo Shanhe as if nothing had happened, nodding and saying, "It's good that you've found something. Your inspection team's work will be easier, and the victims involved will get justice sooner."

"Yes, that makes sense."

Luo Shanhe replied, taking out his lighter and lighting a cigarette.

Then, the office fell silent.

The two smoked quietly, each lost in their own thoughts.

Finally, after half a minute, Nie Dahai said helplessly, "Comrade Shanhe, I invited you here not to plead for leniency, not to investigate the case, and certainly not to interfere with the organization's handling of the case. I just want to know, just how serious is the crime that rebellious son committed?"

"I'm getting old. I've spent my whole life navigating the ups and downs of officialdom, and I've long since become indifferent to honor and disgrace. But as a father, I still have a selfish thought: I want to have some peace of mind."

Luo Shanhe paused, then hesitated, saying, "Secretary Nie, according to regulations, I need this..."

"No need,"

Nie Dahai raised his hand to interrupt, pointing to the landline on the table not far away, "I already asked for you, otherwise I wouldn't have invited you here."

Luo Shanhe felt relieved. Secretary Yu had agreed, so everything was fine.

"Secretary Nie, I can clearly tell you the core facts."

"The case involving Nie Mingyu, chairman of Longteng Group, is not a simple matter of corporate violations or economic misconduct, nor is it merely a matter of personal conduct. He is suspected of participating in an illegal black market chain spanning multiple regions, involving serious issues such as illegal organ transplantation and illegal cross-border experiments. The case is extremely serious and of an extremely heinous nature."

"He has already given a full confession, the key facts are clear, the core evidence is complete, and the case has been finalized and determined. This is also what we just discussed in our meeting."

These few words, like a heavy hammer, struck Nie Dahai's heart.

He had repeatedly tried to comfort and numb himself, always thinking that even if Nie Mingyu was audacious and overstepped his business boundaries, at most it was a case of collusion between government and business, a mistake of interest, and at most a violation of discipline and law, not a catastrophic disaster.

He even secretly calculated that as long as the person was still alive and had a proper attitude, there would be some leniency for him out of consideration for the person.

But the words "illegal organ transplantation, cross-border black market, and heinous case" completely shattered all his hopes and extinguished the last shred of hope deep in his heart.

Nie Mingyu's actions can be described as heinous crimes that have extinguished humanity and trampled on the bottom line of life.

In an instant, Nie Dahai's tall figure swayed slightly, and his face instantly lost all color, turning pale and powerless.

A deathly silence spread through the reception room.

After a long while, Nie Dahai finally let out a slow breath, his voice filled with sorrow as he said, "It is my fault for failing to raise my son properly... I have let down the organization and the people."

"I always thought he was just too eager to do business, too ambitious, and impatient for quick success."

"I often remind him to follow the rules and stay within the bounds, but I never imagined that he would be so bold and so stubborn as to dare to cross such an inhumane red line."

Luo Shanhe looked at him quietly without saying a word.

He could see that Nie Dahai's pain at this moment had shifted from Nie Mingyu to the fact that the righteous path he had believed in all his life and the bottom line of his faith had been completely crushed by his own son.

"If a child is not taught properly, it is the father's fault. Comrade Shanhe, as an elder, I have failed in my supervisory duties and failed in my discipline, which has led to today's disaster."

"The crimes committed by Nie Mingyu are the path he chose himself, and he must bear all the consequences. I have no objection and will never plead for him."

"I will fully obey and cooperate with whatever the organization decides to do in terms of investigation, judgment, and handling, in accordance with regulations, laws, and impartiality."

Luo Shanhe's heart stirred slightly, and he softened his tone, saying solemnly, "Secretary Nie, the organization handles cases according to regulations, and will never tolerate evil or implicate the innocent."

"You have dedicated your life to public service and fulfilling your duties. The organization will have its own judgment. Your children have made mistakes and will bear the consequences themselves. You do not need to be overly critical of yourself."

Nie Dahai slowly shook his head, lit another cigarette, took a deep drag, and said in a deep voice, "At my level, what's mine will come to me, and what's not mine, no one will force upon me."

He then straightened his back, corrected his posture, and composed himself.

"Next, I will fully cooperate with the Yangcheng inspection team in all its work. I will truthfully disclose everything I know, can verify, and can cooperate with, and I will fully cooperate. The Yangcheng Municipal Party Committee will also fully cooperate."

"He committed the crime, but the rules cannot be broken and the law cannot be violated. I have only one request: investigate this thoroughly and show no leniency."

"Only by thoroughly investigating the matter and eradicating this scourge can we console the innocent and live up to the expectations of the people."

Luo Shanhe nodded solemnly, "Secretary Nie, please rest assured."
