Chapter 111: Covert Visits
Yu Peiliang was answering the phone in the office, and it was Ge Chuzhong from the inspection department who called to urge the investigation of Du Lengding's case.
As soon as Yu Peiliang put down the phone, Qi Ruiqiang walked in: "Stationmaster, we found the military vehicle." ”
Qi Ruiqiang couldn't care much, picked up the teacup on Yu Peiliang's desk and drank it: "I'm thirsty." ”
"Cuong, what did you say? Found the military vehicle? Yu Peiliang's face was full of surprise.
"It's in a garbage dump on the outskirts of the city." Qi Ruiqiang put down the teacup, took out a few pieces of paper from his coat pocket, and handed them to Yu Peiliang: "Stationmaster, look, this is what we found from the cab, this is a pass from the military department, this is a special pass issued by the Japanese, this is a handwritten letter from Zhou Fohai, and this is a handwritten letter from Director Dai." ”
Yu Peiliang glanced at Qi Ruiqiang, and took the handwritten letter with a suspicious expression.
"This has a hand, and you still check the fart, the thief shouts to catch the thief? There is also this handwritten letter from Zhou Fohai, which is all colluded together, and let me check it? This is really going to be a bitch again, and I want to set up an archway. Yu Peiliang threw the oracle on the table hatefully: "What is this, playing with me?" ”
"I also think it's strange, or, stationmaster, you report to the upper peak and ask if you want to continue to investigate?" Qi Ruiqiang saw that the stationmaster was very annoyed, so he leaned over and gently proposed to the stationmaster.
"Yes, you stay here, I'll call the other side."
Yu Peiliang dialed the phone number of Ge Chuzhong of the inspection department, and when he heard that Dai Li's handwritten letter and Zhou Fohai's handwritten letter were found on the military vehicle, he felt that the situation was serious, and asked the Shanghai station to temporarily suspend the investigation.
Ge Chuzhong hurriedly reported the matter of Dai Li's handwritten edict and Zhou Fohai's letter found by the Military Commander's Shanghai Station. When Dai Li heard this, he was furious: "Who gave Meng Ruoyu such courage to dare to forge my edict, and immediately interrogated Meng Ruoyu and asked him to explain clearly." ”
Meng Ruoyu originally thought that he would be able to sit back and relax if he confessed to Du Lengding, but he didn't expect to kill a fake edict and a fake letter halfway, he is now repentant, why did he give these two fakes to Ouyang Rui in the first place, isn't this giving people a handle and increasing the incident?
"I'll confess, I'll confess." Looking at the gloomy face of Ge Chuzhong of the Inspectorate, Meng Ruoyu sweated like rain: "This handwritten letter from Director Dai and Zhou Fohai were all forged by me by someone else, and I handed it over to Ouyang Rui, in case someone checked along the way, I might be able to get through the trick." In fact, I have nothing to do with Zhou Fohai, a traitor, and I also asked Director Ge to investigate, I was confused for a while, and I did stupid things, I have explained, and I hope the government can be lenient. ”
"Brother Meng, you are blindfolded by two bills, can you do this kind of thing? This incident has already alarmed the chairman of the committee, and his old man scolded a few 'Niang Xipi', saying that it is not enough for people like you not to kill people to be angry. Your brother will ask for more blessings. ”
After speaking, Ge Chuzhong took Meng Ruoyu's confession and left the interrogation room. Meng Ruoyu slumped.
Ge Chuzhong returned to the office and called Shanghai Station: "Stationmaster Yu?" I am Ge Chuzhong, that edict and letter were all forged by Meng Ruoyu, Director Dai ordered you to find out the whereabouts of Ouyang Rui and that batch of goods as soon as possible. ”
"Okay, I've already arranged it, and I'll do my best to investigate and deal with this matter."
Tan Jingting appeared in front of Meng Ruoyu's cell again, this time, he came to say goodbye to Meng Ruoyu.
"Brother Meng, I've come to see you." Tan Jingting saw Meng Ruoyu with a haggard face, and couldn't help but feel a little pity in his heart.
When Meng Ruoyu saw Tan Jingting, tears flashed in her eyes: "Brother, you're here, brother, I'm really self-inflicted." ”
"Brother Meng, you are really smart this time but you are clever and mistaken, if there is no such thing as a fake oracle and a fake letter, I have almost opened up the joints, maybe you will be sentenced to three or four years, and you can regain your strength, but it's a pity, it's a pity. This matter was stabbed to the top, and even Chairman Jiang was furious, and he insisted on investigating you and making an example of you. There's nothing I can do about it. ”
"Brother Tan, you have done enough for me, I am grateful to you in my heart, things have come to this point, even the emperor Lao Tzu can't save me, I know that the life limit has arrived, and I don't have anything else to worry about, you know, my house will definitely be confiscated, but your sister-in-law is a responsible woman, and there is no one in my mother's family, my pair of children are not yet adults, please brother for the sake of you and I who have worked together for many years, help their mothers, don't let them live on the streets, then I will also feel at ease under Jiuquan."
After Meng Ruoyu finished speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed to Tan Jingting.
"Get up, get up, Brother Meng, don't worry, I will not let their orphans and widows sleep on the streets, I have a private house in Shapingba, Chongqing, and I will take my sister-in-law and children to live there. I'll send them some money every month. ”
"Then where do you live with your sister Osmanthus?" Meng Ruoyu knew that the private house was a reward for Tan Jingting after he was promoted to special commissioner.
"I'm no longer a non-smoking inspector, although the Du Lengding case is not directly related to me, but I have to bear some responsibility for negligence, so I was demoted, I have received an order, let me go to the military command Shanghai station, a few days ago, their intelligence director was martyred, so it was decided to let me fill the vacancy, as the director of the intelligence department, it can be regarded as atonement."
"Brother, I'm the one who has troubled you." Meng Ruoyu lowered his head, feeling ashamed of Tan Jingting.
"Brother Meng, you and I don't have to say anything about whether they are even involved or not, you and I have been in officialdom for many years, and people's hearts are sinister, ups and downs, and they are the most commonplace."
"Brother, take care."
Tan Jingting turned his head and walked out of the cell, he took a deep breath, maybe Meng Ruoyu's today is his tomorrow, he once wanted to seek his own selfish by unscrupulous means, wanted to fly to the end but lost his life, in this deceitful officialdom, whether Meng Ruoyu or he Tan Jingting, they are just some small shrimps.
The murderer of Taro Hashimoto was never found, and in Hongkou, there were anti-Japanese demonstrations, and the Japanese gendarmerie and police had to withdraw their personnel, and the Lafayette Road was much cleaner.
Zhu Hongda returned to No. 18 Jixiangli, and he knocked on the door of Shuxian's house.
"Hongda, are you back? Is the wound on your shoulder healed? Shuxian led Zhu Hongda into the house.
"It's no big deal, Shuxian, I'm here today because I have something to ask you." Zhu Hongda's face was grim, not like he had come to chat.
"What's the matter? Don't scare me. Shuxian saw Zhu Hongda's serious face, and hurriedly patted her chest.
"You sit down, let me ask you, is your husband Ouyang Rui, a reporter from "Declaration"?" Zhu Hongda got straight to the point.
"yes, what's wrong?"
"He's not home these days?" Zhu Hongda asked.
"Why do you keep asking him? He had an acute appendicitis attack a few days ago and was hospitalized after surgery. ”
"Which hospital?"
"Hongda, are you finished? Like a prisoner. Shuxian looked displeased.
"Shuxian, I'm not joking with you, your husband has a big deal." Zhu Hongda told the truth.
"Huh? What's the big deal with him? Don't scare me, tell me, what's wrong with him? Shuxian's face was full of nervousness.
"I went back to Shanghai Station two days ago, and the stationmaster told me that there was a batch of contraband in Chongqing, and Dulendin, which originated in Germany, was smuggled to Shanghai by your husband, and now the people and goods are missing, and he ordered me to investigate the case thoroughly."
After listening to the message that Zhu Hongda passed to her, Shuxian was a little panicked: "How can this be? What about my husband, where is he now? Ten days ago, he was fine, saying that he was going to Chongqing, and if he was lucky, he could make a fortune. ”
"Go to Chongqing to make a fortune?" Zhu Hongda looked suspicious.
"It was Mr. Du downstairs who said, this Mr. Du has a cousin who is the director of the anti-smoking inspectorate in Chongqing, I heard that there is a lot of oil and water, and Mr. Du downstairs bought the house here by his cousin and became a landlord. Once, when he was drunk, he told my husband that he could take him to make a fortune together, and asked him if he had the guts, and my husband heard that there was money to be made, so of course he was tempted and agreed to go to Chongqing with him, and the money for the train ticket was still paid by the man surnamed Du. ”
Shuxian said as she spoke, her voice choked: "How did we know that this batch of goods is contraband, my husband hasn't come back yet, is there an accident?" ”
"Then what's the name of this guy surnamed Du? Where is he now? Zhu Hongda discovered this important clue.
"His name is Du Xueqian, he has been gone for several days, and when he came back that day, he panicked and took Mrs. Du away, and even confiscated this month's rent. Hongda, you say, has my husband been deceived? Shuxian couldn't help but cry.
The confession surnamed Meng did not mention his cousin, and it seems that he still has something to hide. Shuxian, don't worry, let me inquire clearly first. ”
Zhu Hongda returned to the Hollyland Trading Company, walked into the office, and dialed Ge Chuzhong's phone.
"Director Ge, I am Zhu Hongda, and I am currently in charge of Du Lengding's case, I learned today that Meng Ruoyu has a cousin named Du Xueqian, who introduced Ouyang Rui to Meng Ruoyu, and now this Du Xueqian has absconded, but Meng Ruoyu's confession does not mention Du Xueqian."
"Okay, Director Zhu, it seems that Meng Ruoyu, the old fox, still hasn't spit out the truth. I will interrogate Meng Ruoyu immediately. ”
Ge Chuzhong interrogated Meng Ruoyu again.
"Meng Ruoyu, you are still not honest, have you explained your problems clearly?"
"I've confessed everything, there's nothing to hide."
"Really? What's going on with that Du Xueqian? What is his relationship with you? Ge Chuzhong asked sharply.
When Meng Ruoyu heard the words "Du Xueqian" spit out of Ge Chuzhong's mouth, he knew that he could no longer hide it, so he could only pour beans into the bamboo tube and explain it clearly.
"He is my cousin, my uncle told me to treat him well before he died, he is the only seedling of the Du family, so I have been covering him all these years, this time he brought his classmate Ouyang Rui to Chongqing together, and the batch of Du Lengding was transported to Shanghai with Ouyang Rui."
"Then why didn't you mention Du Xueqian before?"
"He's my cousin, and I can't bear to let their family die, so I'm so sorry for my uncle."
"You don't have to worry about others, you have a few days left to live? It's really salty and don't worry about eating radishes. Du Xueqian is now absconding in fear of crime, and the crime is one more degree, and when we capture him, we will definitely not spare him. ”
