Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 753 Please Return

"What law did my child break? He's such a sensible child. It was just a fight, what's the big deal? Would he have fought if no one had provoked him? We can take care of our own child, why should you arrest him? Why?"

Brother Wang pointed at the screaming woman: "Put this one in solitary confinement. The rest of you go to the back."

These people were taken away noisily. Liu Ting looked at his scratched hand, shook his head, and said to Brother Wang, "Whether there's a room or not, we'll interrogate them here."

Brother Wang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it for you. Come on, let's go sit at my place for a while."

I sat in Brother Wang's office for a while; everything was ready.

Brother Wang said, "This matter needs to be handled carefully. Have you figured out where to start?"

Liu Ting patted the pistol and ledger that Xiao Wei had given him: "Let's take this Brother Bo. With all this evidence here, he can't escape. Let's try to break through him as soon as possible."

Brother Wang said, "I'm not an expert in handling cases, but I feel that it might be easier to handle those rich kids. This Brother Bo has made his way up from the bottom, so he's probably much stronger mentally."

After thinking for a moment, Liu Ting said, "Let's give it a try. Okay, let's start with these young masters."

Brother Wang said, "Let's go, I'll go with you."

The two men left Brother Wang's office and went to the prepared interrogation room. Brother Wang sat down and said to the orderly, "Go and bring someone over, pick someone with a bad temper. When you bring them out, have them walk out of the room where their parents are locked up, but don't let them speak, understand?"

……

Two Audis were parked at the entrance of the compound. Secretary Bi and Mayor Wei got out of the cars with grim faces.

The secretary jogged to the guardhouse at the main gate, asked around, and came back to say, "Secretary, Mayor, the man has been arrested and is being held inside."

Secretary Bi said to Mayor Wei, "Why don't we go and meet with them first? We're just causing them trouble."

Mayor Wei nodded in agreement, and Secretary Bi said to his secretary, "Go register, then we'll go in."

Back then, a prefecture-level Party Secretary was also the First Political Commissar of the local garrison. Secretary Bi didn't actually need to register to enter the compound, but at that time, it was better to go through the trouble. It's never wrong to be polite, and it's often easier to communicate if you adopt a humble attitude.

Soon, Secretary Bi and Mayor Wei were taken to the temporary interrogation room and met with Director Liu and Brother Wang. After listening to the explanation from Director Liu and Brother Wang, Secretary Bi's expression turned somewhat grave. After thinking for a moment, he said to Mayor Wei, "Old Wei, I suggest we involve the Discipline Inspection Commission. What do you think?"

Mayor Wei sighed, nodded, and said, "I agree. This is the best solution right now. We can't worry about anything else at this point; we can't lose the authority of the leadership."

Secretary Bi personally called to notify the Discipline Inspection Commission to send someone, then shook hands with Director Liu and said, "Thank you for your trouble. We'll go back and wait for news."

In the compound, Kevin's child was the first to be brought out. As they passed the window of the room where the dozen or so family members were being held, they saw those usually arrogant people being handcuffed and scolded: "Squat down, shut up, use this time to think about how you're going to explain yourself later."

The Kevin children stared wide-eyed in horror as they were dragged over, their faces filled with disbelief and terror. How could this be? How could this be? Their memories from childhood were turned upside down; it turned out there were things they couldn't handle.

These rich kids are incredibly capable of bullying others, with endless tricks up their sleeves, but when they fall, they collapse faster than anyone else. It doesn't take much effort to guide them; they spill out everything they should and shouldn't say along with their tears—friends, buddies, family, parents—they really say whatever comes to mind.

Once the young master's confession and those two ledgers were presented, Brother Bo couldn't hold out for long. The evidence was already quite concrete, so whether he confessed or not didn't really matter much. As a seasoned veteran, he understood this perfectly. Rather than letting someone else's confession become the basis for his trial, it was better to proactively say more to gain a positive attitude—this was a matter of principle. And as the actual controller and operator, he naturally brought Director Liu quite a few surprises.

When the Bincheng Discipline Inspection Commission personnel arrived at the compound, Director Liu simply handed them a stack of confessions. There was practically no need for further interrogation; they could start the investigation immediately. The few Discipline Inspection Commission members exchanged glances, somewhat disappointed. This case was handled far too easily; they should have at least put in a little more effort.

……

None of this had anything to do with Xiaowei and the others. Since Miler and Li Weibing couldn't be seen, the five of them squeezed into the hotel to play cards and watch TV to pass the time. Old Chen slept soundly until the afternoon, got up, tidied up, ate something, and then the visitors started arriving.

Old Chen shook his head and said, "You don't need to be so polite with me. We've known each other for more than a year or two. What does this have to do with you? The child is fine, so why apologize? I'm fine here. Go back and take care of your business."

After talking for a while and seeing Secretary Bi off, an old man arrived; he was Qu Bo's maternal grandfather.

The old man was incredibly resourceful; knowing that Old Chen was here, he rushed over.

"Hello Director Chen, I'm so sorry to trouble you. But it's just kids playing around, nothing serious. Could you please be lenient? Xiao Bo has never suffered since he was little, I've spoiled him, and he doesn't know his own limits. I'll definitely discipline him strictly when he gets back."

Old Chen looked at the old man, sighed, and said, "You're a lawyer, you should know the law. Is this a small matter? What if it were an ordinary person? Would you eventually go to their parents to apologize? Or would you just let your grandson be happy and ignore what others do?"

The old man said, "It's just a joke between children. At most, it's just to scare them. Xiao Bo is a sensible child. He's been obedient since he was little."

Old Chen raised his hand to interrupt him: "You should go back. I'm sorry, I can't help you with this."

The old man looked at Old Chen: "Director Chen, this wasn't a big deal to begin with, are you really going to go to such extremes?"

Old Chen chuckled and said, "You've been too biased. It's hard to believe you've spent your whole life in law. Your grandson is a product of your spoiling; you're the one who sent him to jail. Please go back; have faith in the fairness of the law."

When the old man finally walked out, his back looked rather forlorn, but no one felt sorry for him.

……

What a wonderful day!
