Chapter XIX Decisions
"Don't think about it, there must be someone waiting in that private room!"
Staring at a pair of big watery eyes, Lin Jingxuan looked at Sun Peng with interest and said with a smile. The expression was as steady as if she was there at dinner.
"Hehe, there is indeed a person."
His eyebrows trembled slightly, and Sun Peng sighed a little helplessly: "And he is also the biggest one in the Ministry of State Security, and the meal I ate with them is really exhausting." ”
Leaning on the soft sofa back, Sun Peng looked like he didn't want to say more.
Secretly skimmed, Lin Jingxuan naturally didn't take Sun Peng's words too seriously, in fact, as early as when this guy called him in the middle of the night to explain the situation, Lin Jingxuan had already guessed today's ending.
Obviously, this is too big!
Even if Ling Zhen is just an ordinary agent of the Operations Division, killing a colleague is enough to make a commotion up and down the national security, not to mention that this is still one of the banner figures of the national security? Lin Jingxuan can already imagine how panicked the ministers and directors would be after learning the news!
But......
Lin Jingxuan, who had nothing to do with herself, couldn't understand Sun Peng's troubles, blinked her eyes, and then asked with a smile: "How does it feel to eat with the big boss?" Isn't it an honor? Stressful? ”
"I'm sorry, I don't think so."
Rolling his eyes, Sun Peng said angrily.
No matter how high the status of the so-called Minister of National Security is, in Sun Peng's eyes, he is just an ordinary person after all, and of course he can't feel any honor. It's just that the minister, who spoke softly and had always been very gentle, did put a lot of pressure on Sun Peng. This pressure is not because of the status and identity of the other party, but because the minister has always been at the dinner table in the direction of communication between the two sides, and the questions always inadvertently touch on the places that Sun Peng avoids talking about, and Sun Peng almost missed his mouth several times.
In this regard, compared with these old fritters, Sun Peng does have a big gap.
After a day of hard work by the two interrogation experts, Sun Peng had already told all the things he knew, including how he suspected Ling Zhen at the beginning, how he obtained the consent of the director, and then how to follow Ling Zhen, etc., all of which he said in detail several times, but there were some things that he naturally concealed.
For example, there was some tacit understanding he had reached with Ling Zhen, and for example, the amazing information he had obtained from Lu Qingshan with demonic arts......
As soon as he thought of the things hidden behind him, Sun Peng felt that he suddenly had no interest in speaking, so he simply stood up and shook his head and said, "Forget it, I've been busy for a day and a night...... I took a shower and went. There's still something I need to go out of the shower to do, so let's talk about it tomorrow............
"Shangguan, your luck is really good."
On the minister's car, Meng Lin glanced at Shangguan Cai and said with a gentle smile: "This Sun Peng is not simple, being able to bring Ling Zhen back shows that he is strong enough to catch the clues so quickly...... Hehe, there are indeed a lot of brave and resourceful young people now, but there are very few who can reach his level. ”
"Minister, you've won the award."
At this time, Shangguan Cai completely lost the atmosphere in front of Sun Peng, and smiled respectfully: "It's still too young, and it needs to be honed for two more years." ”
"Huh."
Glancing at Shangguan Cai with deep meaning, Meng Lin smiled and didn't say anything. Sensing the change in the minister's eyes, Shangguan Cai's heart trembled, and he secretly smiled bitterly.
Since returning to the ministry, Lu Qingshan has not said a word except for a few simple words, and Ling Zhen has not spoken except for telling what he killed for Lu, and the only one who can cooperate is Sun Peng. But what makes people helpless is that what Sun Peng said is extremely simple, only how to catch Ling Zhen's process, and there is nothing else!
Regarding Ling Zhen and Lu Qingshan, Sun Peng didn't make any comments at all!
When he was eating just now, Shangguan Cai himself felt that Sun Peng might not have said something, not to mention the minister in front of him, who was known for his delicate thoughts?
Not to mention anything else, Lu Qingshan disappeared at about ten o'clock yesterday, but it wasn't until this morning that Sun Peng brought the two back, how much happened in the intervening period? If it was really like what Sun Peng said, he was just guarding Ling Zhen and the two of them, waiting for dawn, it would be too unbelievable......
But at this time, Shangguan Cai really couldn't say anything, so he had to smile bitterly.
Sun Peng's personality, after such a long period of contact, Shangguan Cai can be regarded as relatively understanding, and it is useless to use the status level or something to suppress it, which can be seen from the fact that he was also calm and comfortable with Meng Lin just now. And there is no evidence, why doubt him?
Tracking and investigating Ling Zhen was agreed upon above, Ling Zhen's confession was the same as what Sun Peng said, as for Lu Qingshan's words, he only woke up for a short moment after being stunned, and it didn't make any sense at all......
Just when Shangguan Cai was entangled in his heart, fortunately, Meng Lin didn't mean to chase after him, so he smiled and asked, "Shangguan, what do you think of Ling Zhen's matter?" ”
"This ......"
Seeing that the minister asked about the matter, Shangguan Cai didn't dare to slack off, and after a little hesitation, he said: "I think the situation is quite clear, Lu Qingshan and the other three killed Ling Zhen's wife and daughter for some reason ten years ago, and Ling Zhen, who found clues ten years later, launched a private revenge operation...... Minister, there must be someone behind you! ”
Before saying the last sentence, Shangguan Cai hesitated slightly, but he still said it firmly!
"Hmm......"
After pondering for a while, Meng Lin sighed lightly: "Yes, the three of Lu Qingshan back then could not have such great energy and courage, there must still be someone behind them......
"Minister!"
Hearing this, Shangguan Cai's face turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Ling Zhen's status in the national security is lofty, and there are many supporters from top to bottom, if this matter is not handled well, it will definitely bring us a considerable impact!" ”
"Of course I understand!"
With a frown, Meng Lin couldn't help but be annoyed.
The real strength of the Ministry of National Security is the secret service, which no one knows better than Meng Lin, but in the same way, because the secret service is always high above and mysterious, for ordinary agents, they are like people from another department, and they always lack a sense of identity. In comparison, Ling Zhen and another fourth-level detective, Cao Qunshan, were the seniors they respected, and naturally had great prestige. Therefore, once Ling Zhen's crime is announced, it will inevitably cause chaos in the Ministry of State Security!
But what made Meng Lin even more embarrassed was the reason why Ling Zhen did these things!
Revenge for one's family, this reason is naturally not allowed in modern society, but it is easy to get the sympathy of most people, especially when the incident back then is likely to be caused by Ling Zhen's work, this feeling of hatred and hatred will make everyone's sympathy rise to an astonishing height!
"It's a real problem this time......"
Thinking of this, Meng Lin couldn't help but sigh again.
As the leader of the Ministry of State Security, this is the most difficult case Meng Lin has encountered since taking office, not to mention how to solve the matter in the future, when he thought of being called over and scolded by the above today, he felt extremely wronged.
Ten years ago, Meng Linke was still on the side of the Security Bureau!
"Minister, who are you going to hand over the next investigation?"
After hesitating for a while, Shangguan Cai suddenly asked.
"Huh?"
Meng Lin was slightly stunned, and immediately understood what Shangguan Cai meant.
The status and prestige of Ling Zhen involved in the case are too high, if it is handed over to a certain department, it may be really difficult for ordinary agents to investigate completely fairly, and if there is really someone behind Lu Qingshan......
"I've got an idea for that."
In an instant, Meng Lin made a decision in his heart, and waved his hand with a solemn expression: "Early tomorrow morning, together with the murder of Ling Zhen's wife and daughter ten years ago, all the work will be taken over by the personnel I dispatched!" Your job is to cooperate with them! ”
"Yes!"
Without any doubts, Shangguan Cai immediately replied in a deep voice. If she hadn't been in the car, she would definitely salute Meng Lin at this time to emphasize her absolute obedience to orders!
It's just that while responding with his mouth, Shangguan Cai's heart moved, and a department name that was mysterious in the Ministry of State Security immediately appeared in his mind......
