Chapter 417: On Trial
As soon as he got to work on the morning of the 21st, Tetsuya Kawasaki came to Liu Zezhi: "Director Liu, General Ono ordered you to go." β
"Now? Do you know what the general is looking for me? Does Director Ni know? "No. 76 has cooperated with the Japanese army headquarters from time to time, and these days, as the head of the general affairs department, he often goes there for business, but he always deals with the quartermaster department and the people in the office, and Ono Heiichiro has never directly approached him. Tetsuya Kawasaki is serious, and his official appearance is also different from usual, Liu Zezhi couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
"Now, of course, I don't know what's going on? Does Director Ni know, you have to go. β
"Well, I'll go." He was even more apprehensive in his heart, but he couldn't ask any more questions.
At the headquarters of the Japanese army, Liu Zezhi was taken directly to the confinement room. There was a dark cloud in Liu Ze's heart: Could it be that he was accidentally exposed? He looked very dissatisfied and said angrily to Heiichiro Ono's secretary, "What does this mean? β
"I'm sorry to be told, please forgive me." The secretary only said this and walked away.
Liu Zezhi pretended to be angry and lost his temper, and shouted loudly in the back: "Don't go!" To make it clear - I want to see General Ono, anyone? I'm going to see the general, come on, come onβfuck you! β
Liu Zezhi slammed the door fiercely, the thick iron door did not move at all, and no one from the guards at the door showed up, so he had to give up after smashing for a while, and sat back on the bed in a daze.
Liu Zezhi secretly pondered: Why did Heiichiro Ono suddenly make such a move? Exposed? No, if that were the case, the interrogation should have started right away, he couldn't figure it out.
At noon, the door of the confinement room opened, and Katsuei Tanaka walked in, Liu Zezhi glanced up at him and did not speak.
Katsuei Tanaka said: "I was ordered to interrogate you about the gold robbery that occurred on February 22 this year, you have to tell the truth and not hide it, do you understand?" β
Liu Zezhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief: it seems that his identity has not been exposed, although the nature of the gold robbery is very serious, he is just acting on orders. The case has been determined, and it was the military commander who robbed the gold bars, and nominally No. 76 has been successfully detected and the gold bars have been recovered, but in fact, Li Shiqun suffered a dumb loss and lost the gold bars. Now that Li Shiqun is dead, the Japanese will not go through old accounts again. He was surprised that Katsuei Tanaka came to interrogate on the orders of Heiichiro Ono, what was his intention?
On the surface, Liu Zezhi pretended to be surprised, half worried and half dissatisfied: "Isn't this case closed a long time ago?" The gold bars have also been recovered, what else is there to ask? I want to see General Ono, I want to see Director Ni! β
Katsuei Tanaka sneered: "See General Ono? Can you see it if you don't make it clear? Seeing that Director Ni is even more unnecessary, General Ono wants to strictly enforce military law, can Director Ni stop it? β
Liu Zezhi was a little weak-hearted, slowed down his tone and said: "Tanaka-kun, many things have indeed been unfair to you in the past, but I can't be the master, you can't settle all the accounts on me, right?" Alas, the gold robbery...... I can't say clearly for a while, in fact, Director Ni knows it, you can go and ask him. β
Tanaka Katsuei snorted and replied expressionlessly: "I don't understand what Director Liu said, he is unfair to me, what do you mean?" Interrogate Director Ni, I don't have this right, General Ono gave me the order to interrogate you, do you say it or not? Don't push me to be rough! β
Liu Zezhi was startled, at a loss, and said with a forced smile: "Tanaka-kun, I'...... What do you mean? Why should you? Rough? As for it? β
Tanaka Katsuei no longer answered, and looked at Liu Zezhi coldly.
Liu Zezhi hesitated again and again, and finally turned his heart sideways and replied: "What do you want, just do it." I don't have anything to say, the case has been understood, the "Briefing" is in the confidential room, you just have to look into what you want to know. β
"Good, good! People at number 76 are so tough! Come on, change the place for Director Liu and prepare for torture! β
Liu Zezhi was taken to a cell and held in solitary confinement. The cell, unlike the confinement cell, consisted of a brick half-meter-high platform that occupied half of the room, with straw piled on top of it. Liu Zezhi, who was full of worries, half leaned and half sat in the corner, his face solemn.
At noon, no one came to deliver food, and Liu Zezhi, who had no appetite, got up and turned around the cell in a daze, as if he was thinking about it, walked to the door and shouted at the observation gate on the door: "It's almost a little faster, I want to eat!" Someone, is there anyone there? β
A heavily armed guard opened the cell door with a thud and without saying a word placed a bowl of moldy rice mixed with unfinished chaff on a brick table, and a wooden bowl containing half a bowl of pickled salted radishes. Liu Zezhi looked at these two things in a daze-standard prison cell! As if he finally understood his situation, he sighed heavily and sat back in the corner.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the cell door was opened again, and two military policemen handcuffed Liu Zezhi and smashed his leg irons, searched him and confiscated all his belongings, including his watch, pen, belt, and escorted him into the torture room.
The torture room was as gloomy and terrifying as ever, and under the preoccupied appearance, Liu Zezhi's heart had a bottom: Heiichiro Ono was intimidating him! Although he doesn't know the cause yet, the worst thing is definitely not happening.
Katsuei Tanaka sat in the position of the chief judge and said coldly: "Liu Zezhi, have you figured it out?" What the hell is the gold robbery all about? Did the military commander do it, or did you do it on orders? On whose orders? β
Liu Zezhi looked at him full of pleading, and said deferentially: "I really don't know what to say, Tanaka-kun, it was my bad attitude in the morning, I apologize to you, please let me meet Director Ni." β
"Don't cry when you don't see the coffin! I warn you: Your case was ordered by General Ono to be handled strictly, and no one can save you! You still don't say it, do you? Someone, tie him to the torture rack. β
The two thugs couldn't help but drag up Liu Zezhi, who was struggling desperately, and skillfully tied him to the torture rack.
Liu Zezhi pleaded: "Tanaka-kun, if you have something to say, let me think about it again, you can't do this...... I beg you, Tanaka-kun......"
One thug slapped him twice, causing Liu Zezhi's ears to ring and dizziness and the corners of his mouth to bleed, and the other thug gagged his mouth with a cloth. Katsuei Tanaka ordered: "Torture!" β
The thug picked up the half-meter-long steel whip and whipped it down! After four or five lashes, Liu Zezhi's suit vest was torn, and blood oozed out. Suddenly, a voice came: "Stop! Who told you to torture! β
Ni Xin, whose face was like frost, walked in, and when he saw that the thugs were still continuing, he shouted: "I told you to stop, didn't you hear?" Bastard thing! β
The thugs had scruples and did not dare to continue. Katsuei Tanaka said angrily: "Who told you to stop? Director Ni, this is not No. 76, I am on official business, please respect yourself! Liu Zezhi, do you want to say it? β
Liu Zezhi smiled bitterly: "What did I say? It was done by the military commander, and it has nothing to do with Director Li! Don't you just want to make me confess that Director Li is the mastermind behind the scenes? Director Li died at the hands of the military commanders, and I can't pour dirty water on him anymore. If you beat me to death, that's all I can say. β
Tanaka Katsuei ordered the thugs to continue the torture, and Liu Zezhi couldn't help but scream.
Ni Xin had no choice but to swallow his anger and said: "Tanaka-kun, please forgive me, give me a face, allow me half an hour, suspend the punishment, I will go to meet General Ono and ask him to hand over Liu Zezhi to me for processing." If the general doesn't allow it, I won't dare to bother again, okay? β
Tanaka Katsuei snorted coldly, waved his hand and ordered the thugs to suspend the execution, and did not relieve Liu Zezhi.
Half an hour later, Heiichiro Ono's secretary walked into the torture room with Li Xuehui and said a few words to Tanaka Katsuei, Tanaka Katsuei's face changed, and he reluctantly ordered: "Put the person down, open the handcuffs and leg irons." β
Li Xuehui stepped forward to help Liu Zezhi, who fell to the ground, and only said two words: "Let's go." β
Back at No. 76, Li Xuehui sent Liu Zezhi to the infirmary, and after being examined, Doctor Peng said, "It's nothing serious, what's going on?" What does Katsuei Tanaka want to do? How did you offend him? β
Liu Zezhi's expression was miserable: "Alas, what did I offend him for?" Besides, even if I offended him, he had no power...... I don't know what's going on, it's been so long......"
Doctor Peng and Li Xuehui looked at each other: Liu Zezhi's meaning is very clear, he was the master of the torture by Heiichiro Ono, is the Japanese still unwilling to let go of the downsized No. 76 and settle old accounts? I don't know who should be unlucky, it's really chilling to think about, but no one dares to say it.
Ni Xin walked into the infirmary, Liu Zezhi made a posture to get up, Ni Xin hurriedly held him down: "Don't move, you lie down well." Go get busy, I'll talk to Director Liu. β
There were only the two of them left in the infirmary, and Liu Zezhi sighed: "What the hell is going on?" In the past half a year, the director not only returned the gold in his hands, but also compensated the part that the military commander had robbed. β
Ni Xin also sighed and replied, "Aren't you investigating some cases within the Nanjing government these days?" It was inevitable that some people would be offended, and some good people who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic brought this up again. I think General Ono was afraid that I would interfere with it, so he ordered Katsuei Tanaka to hide it from me in advance, and when I got the news and rushed over, Katsuei Tanaka had already done it, and you were wronged. β
Liu Zezhi was stunned and said, "These whips are nothing, but you have to settle old accounts like this...... Lao Zhao is no longer there, you are not what you used to be, not only do you have a backer, but now you are the master of the first game of No. 76, I will live in the future...... Even if you dodge this one...... There are other brothers......"
Ni Xin smiled bitterly: "Later? This time the matter is not over, General Ono handed you over to me to deal with, and ordered me to find out the truth. β
Liu Zezhi's expression was even darker, and he replied after a long time: "Then I can only confess and carry this matter, the director is gone, and I can't give others the truth that affects the family." Old Ni, I beg you for one thing: Can you try to save my life? Ants are still greedy, not to mention that I am not alone now......" Liu Zezhi's voice became lower and lower, almost inaudible.
Ni Xin felt ashamed in his heart: At this time, Liu Zezhi was still worried about Li Shiqun's wife and children, but he was calculating him......
