After Zhao Erjie and Li Delu followed Chen Hong and a squad of soldiers to escort a few prisoners away, He Ruoqiu always felt a little uneasy. As a result, at 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, the news came, after the torture equipment was unloaded, the prisoners tried to escape on the way to the escort, Comrade Zhao Erjie found out at the first time, and bravely sent a police to the escort soldiers. And he himself was torn off his neck by the fugitive*. Several fighters killed four fugitives on the spot,* who stubbornly jumped down the ravine after being shot, and their whereabouts are now unknown.

Early the next morning, the white car from the military hospital in the reclamation area came to pull Zhao Erjie's body. He Ruoqiu and the company commander of the armed police force took all the cadres and officers and soldiers to salute him and bid him farewell. A week later, Zhao Erjie was posthumously recognized as a martyr, and the leaders of the reclamation area and the head of the division personally presided over the funeral. Thirty-three-year-old captain and deputy squadron leader Zhao Erjie disappeared from this world forever. Only the unemployed Uighur wife and eight-year-old son in Shiweizi City were left. At the commemorative ceremony organized by the prison, He Ruoqiu took the lead in donating cash to Zhao Erjie's widow. Other cadres also donated generously, and later several cadres from the army also participated in the donation, Chen Hong was the largest donor, and he donated all the 1,200 yuan of his monthly salary because he had no burden alone. After Ye Haodong knew the news, he remembered that although Zhao Erjie had doubted himself in the last fugitive incident, he still asked him for a lot of cigarettes and alcohol afterwards, which was considered to be a heart. So he complied with the 'will of heaven' and found He Ruoqiu, and expressed his willingness to bear all the tuition and living expenses of the descendants of the martyr Zhao Erjie in the future. He Ruoqiu was very moved after hearing this, agreed to Ye Haodong's request, and reported the matter to the senior management of the prison district.

A few days later, a reporter sent by the prison district accompanied by detachment leader Wang Qingshan went to the cotton factory squadron. He came specifically to interview Ye Haodong. A prisoner serving a sentence is willing to give money to help a dead prison cadre who once managed him. This incident itself has a strong news effect and social effect, which not only reflects the success of the prison in reforming the minds of prisoners, but also reflects the respectable image of martyr Zhao Erjie in the hearts of prisoners. Zhao Erjie, who has been established as a typical report of heroic models*, all the news materials related to it are noteworthy. So there was this interview, which was very important to everyone.

Ye Haodong was very cooperative in this interview, he did not mention too much about his donations, but focused on some touching deeds in the life of martyr Zhao Erjie. He also gave several examples of how he used his heart to influence prisoners, educate them with strict requirements for himself, and care for prisoners in life. At the end of the interview, he said that the reason why he was willing to do this was precisely because he was influenced by the prison cadres, and seemingly inadvertently mentioned the positive influence of squadron leader He Ruoqiu on the cadres and prisoners in the prison in his work and life. During the whole interview, this guy's contrived words and emotional demeanor were fake, but the reporter listened to it willingly, and nodded frequently to encourage Ye Haodong to continue talking nonsense.

Ye Haodong didn't know that his words were later published in the Xijiang News by this reporter as intact. It was subsequently reprinted by a national newspaper. It has also become a symbol of the remarkable achievements of the work of the prison in Xijiang, demonstrating that the prison under the socialist legal system stresses democracy and attaches importance to humane management. As a direct consequence of this incident, the Cotton Mill Squadron soon received a number of interviews from national newspapers. And He Ruoqiu has been set up as a living hero and a young cadre with outstanding achievements in prison management. Ye Haodong was also interviewed twice, and he still showed 'abnormal' cooperation, which added a lot of points to his work summary the following year, and at the end of the year, he received a commutation again, because his sentence was already much less, it was reduced proportionally, and this time it was only reduced by half a year.

During the Chinese New Year in '99, no one came to visit him.

Business matters can be discussed with him by phone, the business is expanding rapidly, and everyone is busy now, so Zhu Mingyu and the other brothers did not come. Wang Lin, who had planned to visit him this year, had diabetes the year before and could not afford the long journey. The two elder brothers Ye Haoyun went to work at the Australian International Commercial Bank, and they couldn't come back for the New Year, Ye Haoran had to stay at home to take care of his mother, and he also had a new girlfriend. They all have their own reasons for not coming.

What surprised Ye Haodong was Jiang Lan, this girl didn't know what was wrong recently, she hadn't contacted him for a few months, this is a very unusual thing, with Ye Haodong's understanding of Jiang Lan, there is basically no possibility of her changing her mind, and if she hasn't contacted her for such a long time, Ye Haodong guesses that she is in trouble.

Jiang Lan is indeed in trouble. But this trouble is not a good thing or a bad thing.

One afternoon in October '98, Jiang Lan rushed to the classroom to listen to the lecture as usual. As she walked down the road, she noticed two middle-aged men who looked and dressed very revolutionarily, and Vice Principal Lu Xiaohua were observing her, and one of the men and one woman pointed at her and said something.

By the time of the last class in the afternoon, Jiang Lan was notified to meet two people in the vice principal's office. When she got there, it was the two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, who wanted to see her.

The middle-aged man was dressed very ordinary, and he looked a little old-fashioned with black-rimmed glasses, and Jiang Lan noticed the sharpness of his gaze when he looked at people. The middle-aged man didn't speak, but silently observed Jiang Lan's every move on the side.

The person in charge of the questioning was the woman who was also dressed ordinarily: "Your name is Jiang Lan?" ”

Jiang Lan asked strangely, "Yes?" What's wrong? Who are you, and what are you looking for me? ”

The woman and the man nodded to each other, and then said to Jiang Lan very formally: "We are recruiting special staff from the government department, your grades and your conditions and your performance in political positions, let us decide to carry out an organizational investigation against you, from now on, you don't ask questions, I ask you to answer, don't tell lies, can you start?" ”

Jiang Lan's heart suddenly tensed. She couldn't guess whether it was a blessing or a curse, and she asked herself if she should have been a politically strong person. What does such an organizational survey represent? Will what is about to happen be a good thing or a bad thing? With apprehension, Jiang Lan nodded and said that she understood.

Woman: "Your name is Jiang Lan, Han nationality, born in May of seven or eight years?" ”

Jiang Lan nodded: "Yes." ”

Woman: "Your father's name is Jiang Chunsheng, who went abroad more than ten years ago, and his current whereabouts are unknown, and his brother's name is Jiang Wei, who is the political commissar of the Criminal Police Brigade of the Gangcheng Public Security Bureau, and your mother has a mental disorder and is currently unemployed at home?"

Jiang Lan: "Yes." ”

Woman: "You are very talented in languages, and you studied both English and Russian foreign languages in high school and got excellent grades?" ”

Jiang Lan nodded.

The woman was very satisfied: "You submitted your application for joining the party half a month ago, can you tell us why you want to join the party?" ”

Jiang Lan has often read reports about flood heroes recently, and this girl's patriotic enthusiasm has never been lacking, and she also submitted an application to join the party by taking advantage of that boom. But I didn't expect to lead to this mysterious immortal.

"Everyone who has a heart has patriotic feelings, and I think that if you want to do more for the motherland at this stage, the best choice is to join the party, because the purpose of the party's career development is to make the country stronger!"

The woman was slightly surprised and asked, "In your heart, who comes first, the country or the party?" Do you think that the democratic system of Western society is more advanced than the system advocated by our party? ”

Jiang Lan: "Of course it is the country, in fact, in terms of the current situation of the country, there is no selective contradiction between the two, if a political party will disregard the interests of the country and the nation for the interests of one party, then he is not a qualified political party, I think at this stage although there are many problems in our party, but its goal and fundamentally have never deviated, the current country needs not the so-called Western-style democracy, the party building needs to be constantly improved, as a member of China we should participate in the dream of a strong country, Instead of blindly preaching the advanced nature of Western democratic society, doing so is meaningless pseudo-patriotism, which is equivalent to the bitterness of those who are close to those who are close to them. ”

The man suddenly interjected: "Are you thinking of what you said or who told you?" ”

Jiang Lan shook her head: "Of course, these words are my own heart, and I can still call the shots of my thoughts." ”

The man said something shocking: "What do you think of your father Jiang Chunsheng?" ”

Jiang Lan was very surprised by this question, and thought, what can I think of the irresponsible man who left home and did not return, except for hatred, he had almost no impression, he didn't even leave a photo for his mother, when Jiang Lan thought of this, her heart suddenly moved, yes! That man didn't even leave a photo, who wouldn't dare to take a photo? Is it a person who does not see people? Could it be that these two 'special agencies' came to me today for the sake of that man? Could he be a spy? Jiang Lan's mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of all kinds of possible answers, and finally replied hesitantly: "He has been away from us for fourteen years, I can't remember anything about his memory for a long time, no matter what he did, it has nothing to do with us." ”

A rare smile appeared on the face of the middle-aged man, and at this moment, Jiang Lan suddenly found that this man who was dressed very revolutionarily seemed to be quite handsome. The man nodded, agreeing with Jiang Lan's answer.

said, "Do you suspect that we are looking for you for your father?" ”

Jiang Lan asked rhetorically: "Isn't it?" ”

The man replied: "Part of it is because of him, without his connections we would not have noticed you, but we can come to you, and the more important reason is that our institution needs a young man like you with the ability to think calmly and persistently patriotic." ”

Jiang Lan asked in surprise, "Do you know my father?" ”

The man seemed to be asked about his heart, and he let out a long sigh and glanced at the woman next to him. The woman nodded: "It's been ten years, and it meets the declassification regulations." ”
