Chapter 73: Old Accounts Revisited
It's a quiet street, lined with leafy willow trees, and the air is filled with the sound of hot and knowing chirps in the hot weather.
At the gate of the National Security Bureau, there are high-strength electric tiles, guarded by upright soldiers at the door, and there are signs on the walls that idle people are not allowed to enter.
The red QQ braked in front of the gate of the courtyard wall of the National Security Bureau, and the doorman just glanced at it casually, and then looked ahead without squinting.
The car door opened, Lotte and Zeng Wen quickly got out of the car and rushed to the gate, the doorman suddenly made a quick guard movement with a rifle in his hand, and said sharply at the same time:
"The government is important, and idlers are not allowed to approach."
Lotte hurriedly stopped Zeng Wenrou, who was rushing forward, and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, this little brother, we just want to go in and ask one person."
Where is the duty of the doorman, his face did not change, and he said coldly:
"The government is heavy, and the idle people will retreat, otherwise they will be dealt with in violation of law and discipline."
"We're in a hurry." Lotte hurriedly defended, but he gently understood the rules of the capital, and hurriedly pulled Lotte back, stood next to the QQ car, and explained:
"You see, I said, places like this are all important places for the government, and ordinary people like us can't get in at all."
Lotte was a little embarrassed, and looked at the door again, the guards had resumed their military posture without squinting, and had no choice but to pace back and forth at the door.
Lotte is about 10 meters away from the gate, but his performance also affects the guards to stand guard, the troops are disciplined, and the National Security Bureau has rules, and if you don't enter, you can't enter.
After waiting for about 20 minutes, the doorman walked out of the changing guard, the two saluted each other and then changed positions to stand guard, the replaced doorman did not enter the gate first, he walked towards Lotte with a gun, when he stood still, respectfully saluted a military salute, and said coldly:
"Parking is prohibited here, please leave quickly, otherwise traffic will be affected."
Lotte hurriedly nodded and apologized, Zeng Wen Wen would come to something, and hurriedly took out a red ticket from his pocket, approached the doorman and whispered:
"Brother Bing, my grandfather was arrested today, he is in his 60s, we really don't know what he has done, that's why we ......"
When Zeng gently stuffed the red ticket into the guard's pocket, the guard's eyes sank, and he took out the red ticket in his pocket, threw it on the ground, and said in a more stern voice:
"Please don't insult the soldiers, stand back, I'm sorry I can't help you, please leave quickly, otherwise we have the right to enforce the law."
The doorman left, Lotte and Zeng Wenrou were a little dumbfounded, this doorman didn't get in, they really didn't have any tricks, Zeng Wenrou squatted on the ground and picked up the red ticket, touched a handful of tears and said:
"What can I do about this, the master's body can't withstand torture to extract confessions, right?"
"Will they torture to extract confessions?" Lotte asked tentatively.
"Who knows, this is the National Security Bureau, and the law enforcement power is more than that of the police." Zeng said softly with a crying voice.
Lotte is a young man who has just entered the city, he understands something, so he had to say helplessly: "Drive to the side and wait." ”
The two had to drive to a parking space, far from the gate, at least they could see the gate.
The air outside is hot, and the temperature in the car is the same, the two of them have no choice, they are sighing, Lotte took out the phone and called Liu Wenjing again, the phone was connected, Lotte said:
"Sister Wen Jing, how can you go to the National Security Bureau to ask about the situation?"
Liu Wenjing was stunned for a moment, then lowered his voice and asked, "Lotte, what is the relationship between you and Li Liuzhi?" ”
"This ...... I couldn't say a word or two, so I wanted to ask about Li Liuzhi's situation, and I was really worried. ”
"Lotte, I really can't help with this, unless you tell me the truth."
After Lotte was quiet for a moment, he said, "That's it, I'll go to your police station and wait for me." ”
Hanging up the phone, Lotte looked at Zeng and said gently:
"Go to the XXX police station, I'll ask someone."
Zeng gently drove and soon arrived at the police station, Zeng gently asked tentatively: "Do you want to give some gifts or something?" ”
Le got out of the car and said, "No, you go home first, and I will inform you as soon as there is news." ”
"Be careful." Zeng gently drove away, and Lotte sighed and walked into the police station.
Entering the hall, there were several people queuing up, and the grassroots police did not have a big case, all of them were born babies to settle down, or to handle ID card matters.
The receiving police glanced at Lotte and said with a smile: "Yo, isn't this the younger brother of our police flower, and I'm looking for your sister again?" ”
"Well, where is Sister Wen Jing?" Lotte asked.
"Go inside and up to the second floor."
Lotte followed the instructions, went up to the second floor and saw Captain Xing walking by, he was surprised to see Lotte, "Yo, meet again, I haven't thanked you for the last time, the doctor said that it was fortunate that it was found early, or I would have confessed my life." ”
Lotte said to Lao Xing: "It's nothing, it's a casual matter, is Sister Wen Jing here?" ”
"In the archives, I'll take you." After speaking, he took Lotte to the archive room, opened the door and said, "Wenjing, Lotte is looking for you." ”
There were still a few policemen in the office, Liu Wenjing was busy, and when she looked up and saw Lao Xing coming in with Lotte, Liu Wenjing stood up and said:
"Lotte come in, Captain Xing, you come in too, I have something I want to ask you."
"Aren't you going to get busy with Lotte first?" Lao Xing walked in and asked jokingly.
Liu Wenjing smiled shyly and said, "Lotte is not in a hurry, sit down and wait, I still have work at hand." ”
Lotte had to sit on the chair next to him, and several other colleagues looked sideways, some of them had seen it, some had not, but the eyes of these policemen were all curious to look at Lotte.
After Lao Xing walked over, Liu Wenjing took the file and said:
"Captain, this Li Liuzhi's case record is all old information from 20 years ago, he was just released from prison some time ago, it stands to reason that the previous cases have been closed, why does the above still attach so much importance to it?"
"Hey." Lao Xing sat on the chair and said: "Didn't you say it all, the above is not about Li Liuzhi, but on his three apprentices, these are all old files, and the above let the grassroots level turn over the case, also for his three apprentices." ”
Lotte was interested when he heard it, and listened carefully.
A policeman in the office asked, "Captain, you are an old man, do you know what happened back then?" ”
"I've heard of it." Lao Xing took a look at the case record and said: "This Li Liuzhi, he actually didn't commit a big case, after careful calculation, he is also a good person, I heard that he is a thief in this industry, but it is all rumors, I don't know much." ”
"Doesn't he steal? Can it be called a thief, is it the kind that robs the rich and helps the poor? Liu Wenjing asked.
"That's what happened." Captain Lao Xing said: "During the reform and opening up period, there was a period of hard crackdown, Li Liuzhi did not have many criminal records, and most of them had no evidence, but during the crackdown, Li Liuzhi's three apprentices did several shocking cases and stole many national treasures out of the country for sale. ”
"At that time, it caused a lot of sensation, because their modus operandi was very secretive, and it was quite difficult to crack the work, after all, there was no surveillance eye back then, and later, we learned about their stealing organization through the peripheral members of the net, so we went to the net to arrest them, but unfortunately only caught Li Liuzhi, and his three apprentices all ran away."
"But this old man has a very hard mouth, that is, he doesn't say the whereabouts of his three apprentices, there is no recruitment, at that time, in the process of detection, although Li Liuzhi denied that he was involved in the theft, but there is no way to conclude that Li Liuzhi participated in it, anyway, it was a severe crackdown, and he was sentenced to 20 years."
"That's not right." Someone asked: "When he was cracking down, he was sentenced to death for stealing a cow, how come he has only been involved in such a big case for 20 years." ”
Captain Lao Xing said again: "The evidence is insufficient, this old man is hard-mouthed, he just doesn't admit it, he doesn't move, in the case of insufficient evidence, he is sentenced to 20 years, if it is poked out now, it is estimated that the country will have to pay a lot of money." ”
Liu Wenjing pulled the topic back again and asked, "Captain, the National Security Bureau attaches so much importance to it, is it because Li Liuzhi's three apprentices came back, and then brought up the old accounts again?" ”
"I speculate that after all, these three people are now international thieves, and any one of them comes back to do it, it is a big case that alarms one party, and the National Security Bureau has been chasing them for many years, and this time they will definitely not miss any opportunity."
Lotte listened on the side, pondering in his heart, Liu Wenjing saw that Lotte understood almost everything, looked at Lotte and said with a smile:
"Lotte, let's wait for a hurry, I'm too busy today, or ......"
Captain Lao Xing reacted instantly, and said with a smile: "No, you are busy, I will give you a half-day off, if it weren't for this case, it would have been a holiday on October 1, you young people went out for a walk." ”
The captain gave the green light, Liu Wenjing also achieved his goal, thanked him and left with Lotte, the two did not speak all the way, until they arrived at Liu Wenjing's house, Liu Wenjing didn't say a word, moved over the stool with a straight face, let Lotte sit down and said:
"What I revealed to you today has already violated discipline, if you don't explain things clearly, our relationship will end here."
Seeing that Liu Wen was so resolute, Lotte had no choice but to say:
"Sister Wen Jing, we have been in a 10-year relationship, you should know who I am."
"What is the relationship between you and Li Liuzhi, you say, I listen, I can't hide anything." Liu Wenjing sat opposite Lotte, with the attitude of interrogating prisoners.
Lotte settled down and said righteously: "I'm an orphan, you know." ”
Liu Wenjing nodded, and Lotte continued: "When I was 8 years old, I was adopted, and you know this. ”
Liu Wenjing continued to nod, and Lotte said: "I am also surnamed Li, you may be able to think that the person who adopted me is Li Liuzhi's only relative, and according to the generation, Li Liuzhi is my uncle." ”
Liu Wenjing was a little surprised, to be honest, she really didn't expect this, but after pondering for a while, she said: "Lotte, although you have this relationship, this case involves a lot, and you'd better not get involved." ”
"No!" Lotte solemnly retorted: "You know my character, I want to repay the grace of dripping water, before leaving, my father-in-law told me that Li Liuzhi was wrongfully imprisoned for 20 years, so I must take good care of him, this is my father-in-law's wish, I can't disobey, and he was still implicated in the case that year." ”
