"Against." Wei Zhong didn't think about it, and answered me directly.

He told me that they had gone through several votes over the years. Those who participated in the vote, including him, were twenty-five in all, and each time, the number of people who opposed it was the same as the eternal fourteen, and only eleven people who voted in favor.

Over the years, each of them has not changed their opinion on this matter. It's a little hard to imagine that the reason why a matter of importance is not investigated is because of the difference between these three votes. Wei Zhong's attitude suddenly became very clear, Jiang Jun snorted coldly and stopped talking to Wei Zhong.

In fact, I should have thought that if the superiors finally came to the conclusion that they would not investigate, then they would definitely send an opposition person to contact me and persuade me not to investigate, and not send a supporter to encourage me to continue the investigation. So, they asked Wei Zhong to come and connect with me, and Wei Zhong is a member of the opposition.

Wei Zhong told me that not long ago, there was a great upheaval among them. The supporters have realized that if there is no investigation and no more arrest of the killers, there will be more cases. Therefore, the supporters proposed to set up a task force to conduct a thorough investigation, starting with the case of the woman in red.

The young and promising Shen Cheng is the leader of the list proposed by the task force. On the one hand, the supporters tried their best to persuade the opposition, and on the other hand, they tried their best to persuade Shen Cheng to make him the leader of the task force, because they believed that Shen Cheng was the only public official who had the ability to solve the case.

However, Shen Cheng did not agree, and the opposition objected, so in the end, the establishment of the task force was hastily disposed of, and no one mentioned it again. Our conversation with Wei Zhong was over, and I took the initiative to stand up and walk back to the conference room. It's not a way to drag it out any longer, after so many years, these people's minds haven't changed, I'm afraid it's not something I can convince in a few words.

All I want is an affirmative answer: investigate, or not investigate. If the police don't investigate, I have to think of other ways immediately, and my time is running out.

Pushing open the door of the conference room, everyone's attention was on me again. I didn't say anything, and silently returned to my seat, and Wei Zhong and the other people who had left halfway also returned to the conference room. I didn't choose to entangle with them anymore, and said directly: "Elders, it's time for our negotiations to end, please give me a clear answer, whether to investigate or not." ”

But these people do not seem to have any intention of ending the negotiations just like that.

"Li Ke, whether you investigate or not, it's all an afterthought, the evidence in your hands plays an important role in the police, and you must hand it over." Someone said that to me.

"According to the law, if the police want to forcibly detain someone's belongings, they must give an explanation and bring a document with an official seal. I don't need an official seal, please tell me, on what grounds do you detain what I have? I asked rhetorically.

He didn't answer me, and I smiled contemptuously: "If you can't say it, you don't have the right to withhold my things." Even if these kraft papers hide a huge amount of wealth, I don't want it, and when I find out the truth, everything will be given unconditionally. Jiang Jun, let's go. ”

Jiang Jun and I stood up, nodded to everyone, and strode towards the door of the conference room. However, the moment we pushed the door open, Jiang Jun immediately pulled me behind me, and he stood in front of me and shouted angrily at everyone outside. There were several policemen standing outside, all of whom were holding guns, and the muzzles of the guns were aimed at me and Jiang Jun.

At this moment, I suddenly felt an incomparably cold heart. I turned around and said coldly: "Is this the law I trust, the police I trust?" ”

There were a lot of people who obviously didn't know that such a thing was going to happen, and some people yelled at other people and asked them what they were messing about. And some people say that this is also forced to be helpless, saying that as long as we hand over the things in our hands, they will naturally let us leave safely.

"Even if I give you what I have, will you really let us go in peace? Aren't you afraid that I will tell you about this matter, so that you will not be able to give an explanation to the outside world? My voice grew colder.

"What if you say it, we are worthy of the country!" An old man shouted angrily.

"Let's calm down, everybody." Someone sighed: "Li Ke, don't leave for the time being, it seems that there must be a clear conclusion to this matter." We are worthy of the country, but the outside world doesn't think so, can you block the mouths of the people? Or do you really want to kill Li Ke? ”

Wei Zhong also stood up at this time, he walked to the door, pulled me and Jiang Jun inside, and closed the door directly.

"Needless to say, the old way, let's still vote." Wei Zhong said to everyone.

"Wei Zhong! There are many of you in opposition, of course you are in favor of voting! That person was very dissatisfied with Wei Zhong's proposal.

Wei Zhong laughed twice and shrugged his shoulders. Immediately, someone from the opposition followed Wei Zhong's meaning and said: "I agree, since there is a stalemate, let's vote." If the number of people who agree is large, we will propose an investigation to the superiors, and if the number of people is small, we will not investigate, and Li Ke must also hand over all the things in his hands. ”

The conference room suddenly became bustling, and I squinted and glanced at everyone present.

"I didn't expect that what I said today sounded like a negotiation, but it turned out to be just a consulted Hongmen banquet. Even if you kill me today, you will definitely find a very suitable reason, that is, to sacrifice the individual for the sake of the collective. For the sake of the country, what a high-sounding reason! I gritted my teeth: "Vote?" What a gorgeous banditry, the result has long been doomed, you will not investigate, and you will take away everything I have in exchange for my life! ”

"What, do you have a better way?" The man who spoke asked.

Jiang Jun wanted to get angry, but I stopped him. If today, we really can't keep the kraft paper in our hands, we must also save our lives to get out. As long as life is there, there is nothing that cannot be solved. Actually, I've already backed up the kraft paper and backed up the keys.

It's just that I've always been reluctant to use these backups, and I don't want to go into a complete confrontation with these people.

No one offered a better suggestion, not even the supporters, who eventually acquiesced.

But suddenly someone said that Jiang Jun and I should also participate in the vote. Jiang Jun snorted coldly: "If we don't participate in the vote, will the result be any different?" ”

"They are not public officials and cannot participate in voting." Someone else said.

This sentence completely made Jiang Jun unable to hold back his anger.

Jiang Jun scolded unabashedly: "You guys are disposing of our things like robbers, and you say that we are not qualified to vote?" I said I want your whole family to die, let's just vote, you don't have the right to participate, do you agree! ”

Jiang Jun's almost scoundrel anger made that person's face blue and white.

"Forget it, if they want to participate, let them participate." It was the old man who had quarreled with me about the fact that I was sick. Obviously, he was also in opposition, and I quickly counted the number of people, and excluding me and Jiang Jun, there were a total of twenty-five people present.

These 25 people had already voted several times a few years ago, and each time the result was 14 to 11, and the opposition was outnumbered. Now, with the addition of me and Jiang Jun, with two more votes in favor, then the final result will be 14 to 13, and there is still no way for the number of supporters to surpass the opposition.

Jiang Jun also obviously noticed this, and he cursed: "Old fox." ”

However, these people did not care about the attitude of Jiang Jun and me at all, and the voting began directly. Wei Zhong also sat in his seat, and only Jiang Jun and I were still standing.

"The easiest way is to raise your hand, those who support, raise your right hand, and those who raise your left hand are against." The old man said that this kind of voting method directly excludes the abstention.

Everyone's hands were raised one by one, Jiang Jun and I did not raise our hands, they directly acquiesced that Jiang Jun and I raised our right hands in support.

plus me and Jiang Jun, who took a tacit position, there were a total of twenty-seven people, thirteen to thirteen.
