Li Chengbing is 72 years old this year, in good physical condition, with a clear mind, quick thinking, and emotional stability; during the Spring Festival last year, her old mother celebrated her 90th birthday, and Li Chengbing wrote an application to the prison leaders, wanting to give her old mother a birthday in her lifetime. In addition, Li Chengbing has not returned to his hometown since he entered Zhenjiang Prison.

Li Chengbing's performance in prison is not good or bad.

"Not good, not bad? Why is that? ”

"Captain Qin, come on." Secretary Cui said.

"The situation is like this, we talked to him many times, hoping that he would behave positively, reform well, and strive to change the indefinite to the indefinite, but his attitude was very negative, he said that he had no face to face his relatives and friends, and it was enough to live this life within the high walls."

At around nine o'clock, Li Chengbing was taken into Secretary Cui's office.

Two prison guards took Li Chengbing into the office,

Li Chengbing shaved his short hair, his hair was all white; He is about 1.65 meters tall, with a round face, two small ears, and his forehead is full of wrinkles, and the skin on both sides of the nasolabial folds squeezes the nasolabial folds into a deep groove.

Probably because he rarely basks in the sun, Li Chengbing's skin is relatively white, probably because of the calm and comfortable life in prison, except for two black moles on his face, there is not a single age spot, everyone knows that when people reach this age, they will have age spots on their faces.

This may be a realm that many people are pursuing! People come to this world just for food in their mouths, clothes on their bodies, and in prison, they have ready-made food to eat, clothes that do not cost money, and they have no worries about food and clothing, which is indeed the highest state of life.

The author finally understands why so many corrupt officials have tossed around all their lives, and what they finally pursue is this kind of life. No wonder they are willing to give up the power and wealth they have spent their lives dreaming of, such a life is indeed too attractive.

Li Chengbing stood at the door of the office and bowed and shouted: "No. 117 comes to report."

Li Chengbing is well-trained. He has never forgotten the rules in prison, and he may not be able to forget them in this life.

"Come in." Secretary Cui said.

Li Chengbing walked into the office and sat on the bench at the signal of Secretary Cui.

Secretary Cui waved his hand at the two prison guards, and one of the prison guards used a key to open the handcuffs on Li Chengbing's wrists.

Li Chengbing clasped his hands and lowered his head.

"Li Chengbing, you raise your head."

Li Chengbing raised his head slightly, but his eyes didn't look at anyone.

"Li Chengbing, these comrades are comrades from the Jingxi City Public Security Bureau, they are here this time, and if they want to know some information, you must actively cooperate and not hide it in the slightest."

Li Chengbing's face changed suddenly, his eyes widened, his face was covered with a layer of earthy gray, and the hands that were originally held together suddenly didn't know where to put them.

Zhao Zimeng and Ling Hu Yunfei noticed the change in Li Chengbing's mood, and the two looked at each other.

"Li Chengbing, what's wrong with you, didn't you hear what Secretary Cui just said?" Captain Qin said.

"I heard it—I heard it, and I will actively cooperate with it, and I will never dare to hide it at all." Li Chengbing sat up straight and placed his hands on his knees.

Secretary Cui nodded at Zhao Zimeng, signaling that Zhao Zimeng's conversation might have begun.

"Li Chengbing, let's ask you about someone."

"Who?"

"Chairman Cha - Cha Rengui. Do you know each other? ”

"Che Rengui?" Li Chengbing's eyes put a big question mark in them.

"Che Rengui, do you know each other?"

"Comrade policeman, don't listen to Che Rengui's nonsense, blood spews people!"

Li Chengbing's expression had already surprised Zhao Zimeng, and Li Chengbing's words surprised Zhao Zimeng even more. Obviously, there must be some ulterior deal between Cha Rengui and Li Chengbing.

Zhao Zimeng decided to make a plan: "Che Rengui turned out to be in business, how did he go to the district to do things?" ”

"He was a model of activity in the public-private partnership, and at that time, the district needed someone to be the president of the chamber of commerce, and he was the right person."

"Did Che Rengui bribe you?"

"This is something that doesn't happen - there's absolutely nothing like that, you must not listen to Cha Rengui's nonsense. The appointment of Che Rengui as the president of the chamber of commerce was unanimously approved by the district party committee meeting. ”

"Che Rengui's younger brother Che Renju, do you remember?"

"Lift?" Li Chengbing's eyes blinked a few times, and the wrinkles on his forehead were added a few times, and the original wrinkles were deeper.

"Yes, Che Renju." Zhao Zimeng's eyes looked directly at Li Chengbing's face. "Why don't you speak?"

"Che Renju, remember—remember, in 1950, Che Renju was ** by the people."

"What crime did he commit?"

"He worked within the Kuomintang, and when the Kuomintang left Beijing, he killed a number of progressives in Huanghuatai."

"How do you know so well?"

"I was also the chief of the public security section at the time, and I presided over the execution of Che Renju and others."

"How do you know?"

"On the eve of liberation, our party got hold of Che Renju's situation."

"Cha Renju's brother, Cha Rengui, what role does he play in this?"

"This-this-this matter has nothing to do with --Cha Rengui has nothing to do with it."

"Li Chengbing, you have to be responsible for what you have said."

"I'm a dying person, and I don't need to hide anything."

"Li Chengbing, you have been sorry for your old mother in this life, we heard that you just gave his old man a ninetieth birthday last year, as the old saying goes, one misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred, in the past, you took the wrong path and did the wrong thing, we hope you don't make a mistake to the end, if you deliberately hide something, you can't be regarded as a big filial son."

Zhao Zimeng continued: "People should live frankly, in the front, you live a lewd nest, we hope that you will be a frank person in the rest of the days, and don't leave any regrets." You've been here for years, do you want to die of old age? As long as you do a good job of transformation and positive performance, 'indefinite' can be changed to 'indefinite'. ”

Li Chengbing bowed his head and was silent for a long time, could it be that Zhao Zimeng's words worked?

"Li Chengbing, Captain Zhao's words, you should think about it, I am afraid that such an opportunity will not be available again in the future." Captain Qin said, "You have to weigh Captain Zhao's words carefully. You've been confused for most of your life, don't be confused anymore. ”

Li Chengbing straightened up and touched his head with his right hand. There are signs of loosening of his psychological defenses.

"After so many years, we actually found you, you should be considered a smart person, this should not be an accidental coincidence, we hope you recognize the situation, the reason why we didn't have a showdown with you is because we want you to say it yourself, you must be better than us say it."

"Captain Zhao, Li Chengbing's performance has been generally good since he served his sentence, and if he is a little more positive, it is entirely possible to change his sentence." Secretary Cui echoed on the side, "Li Chengbing, as long as you actively cooperate with Captain Zhao's investigation, we may consider the issue of changing or commuting the sentence." ”

"Can I smoke a cigarette?" Li Chengbing looked at Secretary Cui and Captain Qin with pleading eyes.

Secretary Cui stood up, opened the drawer, took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from it, and walked to Li Chengbing.

Li Chengbing leaned over to take the cigarette and lighter. He took out a cigarette, pressed the lighter with his trembling right hand, and lit it.

Zhao Zimeng felt that the heat was not enough, so he added another handful of firewood: "Li Chengbing, don't have any worries, you just said, 'I am a person who is dying', you are right to think so, since you have thought of this, what else can't you put down?" ”

Li Chengbing finished smoking half a cigarette, and then let out a long sigh: "Since Che Rengui has said everything, there is no need for me to hide it anymore." Providence is so, Providence is hard to disobey! ”

Zhao Zimeng gasped, fortunately he didn't mention the murder of Che Rengui, a person suffering from tuberculosis, saw a bowl of cold porridge, and scared his legs. As the old saying goes, if you do a romantic thing, you are afraid to drink cold water. I did something bad during the day, and I was afraid of ghosts calling the door at night.

Before explaining, Li Chengbing had an opening statement: "As soon as you mention Che Rengui, I understand what is going on." For this incident, I regretted all my stomach. Li Chengbing had something to say.

Captain Qin made a cup of tea and put it on the table in front of Li Chengbing, Li Chengbing picked up the teacup, his eyes were a little moist.

"My depravity began with my relationship with Cha Rengui - at the beginning, I just had a problem with my life style, and I was not greedy - of course, I didn't encounter the opportunity to be greedy."

"In the past few decades, as soon as I calm down and close my eyes, I will think of this incident - I regret it! Over the years, this matter has been weighing on my heart, and I don't want to take it to the Netherworld. Li Chengbing took a sip of tea and took a puff of cigarette, and the cigarette and tea helped him reminisce.

Zhao Zimeng didn't want to interrupt Li Chengbing's train of thought.

"Of course, I have a lot of responsibility myself, and if I can hold on to myself - or stick to my bottom line, I will never get on the thief ship of Rengui."

Li Chengbing slowly walked forward with his own train of thought.

"I'll tell you all! When I say it, my heart is relaxed. ”

This is exactly what Zhao Zimeng wants: "Li Chengbing, don't be in a hurry, speak slowly, the more detailed the better." Zhao Zimeng said as he stood up and picked up the water bottle to add a little water to Li Chengbing's teacup. At this time, it is necessary to do a little service work at the right time.
