Lin Susu heard Lu Tao ask her father's name, hesitated for a moment, and replied in a hoarse voice: "My father's name is Lin Xianzhi, and he is now detained in the Qingxi County Detention Center. ”

Du Xiaoyu asked Lu Tao a little surprised: "Mr. Lu, who did you call just now, can he help?"

Lu Tao smiled and said: "He is my father's old comrade-in-arms, named Wei Gangqiang, and now he is the deputy director of the Provincial Public Security Department, he should be able to help!"

Lin Susu heard Lu Tao say that the person he had just called "Uncle Wei" on the phone turned out to be the deputy director of the Provincial Public Security Department, and suddenly raised his head to stare at Lu Tao, his originally pale and dark face suddenly turned red because of excitement, and asked in a trembling tone: "Mr. Lu, is the person you called for help just now really the deputy director of the Provincial Public Security Department?"

After receiving Lu Tao's affirmative reply, she suddenly covered her face with her hands again and began to cry - this time the crying was no longer shame and despair, but tears of joy......

Lu Tao motioned to Du Xiaoyu to comfort Lin Susu, then picked up the mobile phone again, dialed Wei Gangqiang's phone, told him the name of Lin Susu's father, and asked him if he could go through a bail procedure for Lin Xianzhi first, so that he could go to the provincial capital to take care of his wife who had surgery.

Wei Gangqiang hesitated for a moment and replied, "Xiao Lu, I can't give you a packing ticket for this." There are certain conditions for release on bail pending further investigation, and it does not apply to all criminal suspects. Moreover, during the period of release on bail pending further investigation, the criminal suspect cannot leave the city, county or district where he is located unless there are special circumstances. So even if I can help your friend go through the procedures for release on bail, if he wants to leave Qingxi County to take care of his wife in the provincial capital, I am afraid it will be a little difficult. ”

Lu Tao hurriedly said: "Uncle Wei, why don't you ask him about his case first, and see if he meets the conditions for release on bail pending trial, if it really doesn't work, then it can't let you violate the principle, right?"

"Okay, I'll call right away and ask. ”

About twenty minutes later, Wei Gangqiang called back: "Xiao Lu, I have clarified the case." This case was investigated by the Economic Investigation Brigade of the Qingxi County Public Security Bureau, and the facts of the case are probably as follows: Lin Xianzhi started to engage in real estate development a few years ago, and because of lack of funds, he mobilized relatives and friends to raise funds in the society, and the financing interest was 2 to 4 cents per month. Because the interest rate is relatively high, and the bank is unwilling to lend to Lin Xianzhi's company, the company's capital chain is broken, and it is unable to repay the principal and interest of private creditors, which has caused some mass incidents. In order to appease the anger of the creditors, the county public security bureau criminally detained him on charges of illegal fundraising. ”

Lu Tao hurriedly asked: "How much principal and interest does Lin Xianzhi's company still have that cannot be paid?"

"I also learned that the principal and interest together are about 3 million yuan, involving more than a dozen creditors. ”

Lu Tao was very surprised and said: "Uncle Wei, 3 million yuan is not a lot! I have seen many bosses who owe tens of millions of dollars in debt, and they are also privately funded, and there are also creditors who petition to make trouble, but the public security organs generally do not arrest them on charges of illegal fund-raising, but at most urge them to find ways to raise funds to repay their debts. How could Lin Xianzhi be criminally detained for such a small amount?"

Wei Gangqiang let out a "hmm" and said, "I'm also a little strange. It stands to reason that the amount of Lin Xianzhi's debt is not large, and the public security organs should first urge him to find a way to raise money to repay the loan, instead of arresting him for punishment. Otherwise, I'll ask you about the specifics!"

After Lu Tao thanked him, he hung up the phone, turned his head and asked Lin Susu: "Miss Susu, does your father have any enemies?

Lin Susu tilted his head and thought about it, nodded and said: "Not long ago, I heard my father say that a relative of the deputy director of the county public security bureau put one million yuan to earn interest in the company, and the monthly interest was 4 cents, and after more than three years, the principal had already gone back, and he earned hundreds of thousands of yuan. In May of this year, the man approached my dad and said he wanted to get the $1 million principal back. My dad said he really didn't have any money right now and asked him for a period of relief. However, the man threatened my dad that if he didn't return the $1 million within a month, he would put my dad in jail. In June, my dad was arrested by the county public security bureau, and it is estimated that the relatives of the deputy director of the public security bureau were doing the trouble. ”

Du Xiaoyu immediately said: "Sister Susu, according to my judgment, the so-called relatives of the deputy director should be his agents, and they are likely to be the deputy director before they make interest in your father's company." Because your father couldn't repay him in time, the deputy chief arrested him and tried to force you family members to raise money to save him. ”

Lu Tao glanced at her with appreciation, nodded and said, "Xiaoyu's analysis has some truth. Let's not rush for now, wait for Director Wei to ask about the specific situation. ”

After another half an hour, Wei Gangqiang called again: "Xiao Lu, just now I called Liao Huaiyi, director of the Huaisha City Bureau, and asked him to say hello to the person in charge of the Qingxi County Bureau to see if Lin Xianzhi could be released first and let him raise money to repay the arrears." Liao Huaiyi followed my request to find the leader of the Qingxi County Bureau, and the other party told him that because the creditors were very close to this case, the county public security bureau did not dare to release the person without authorization. If Lin Xianzhi wants to get out of the detention center, he must raise at least one million yuan to appease several creditors who are making a lot of trouble, so as not to trigger a new group incident. ”

Lu Tao's heart immediately brightened: Du Xiaoyu really guessed correctly, this matter was consumed by the deputy director of Qingxi County from beginning to end. The so-called "creditor who made a lot of trouble" was actually the deputy director who instructed people to make trouble, and his purpose was to force Lin Xianzhi's family to raise one million yuan and repay his principal.

However, this was just his own reasoning and speculation, and it was not easy to say it to Wei Gangqiang, so he said, "Uncle Wei, thank you." Since the Qingxi County Public Security Bureau said that one million yuan must be repaid to release Lin Xianzhi, I will work with my friend to find a way to see if we can scrape together one million yuan, and I can't embarrass you. ”

Wei Gangqiang said "um" and said: "If you can raise one million yuan, there is no need for me to bother to talk more, just go and hand over the money, let your friend come out first, and then I will say hello to Liao Huaiyi and ask the Qingxi County Bureau to withdraw the case." In case you can't scrape together so much money, it's okay, you can pay as much as you want, and I will find a way to save your friend when the time comes. ”

Lu Tao thanked him again, then hung up the phone and relayed Wei Gangqiang's words to Lin Susu and Du Xiaoyu.

Lin Susu's tears flowed out again, and she choked up and said, "Mr. Lu, I can't even pay my mother's surgery deposit now, where can I raise one million yuan?"

Lu Tao hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I'll find a way for you." However, I don't have much money in my own savings, so I have to borrow from friends and relatives, and I don't think I can make up a million dollars. But just now, Director Wei said that no matter how much money we raise, as long as we repay part of the arrears, he will have a way to get your dad out, so you can rest assured. ”
