Chapter 101 Pressure

The special line call came from the office of the secretary of the provincial party committee, but it was not Gao Ming, deputy secretary Bai's secretary, but Deputy Secretary Bai himself.

As the deputy secretary in charge of propaganda and ideology in the provincial party committee, Deputy Secretary Bai is probably ranked fourth or fifth in the standing committee of the provincial party committee. Of course, this is not to discuss the approximate position of Deputy Secretary Bai in the provincial party committee, anyway, it is much bigger than Chen Yang, the mayor of Xizhou.

Therefore, Chen Yang did not dare to slack off, and patiently talked to Deputy Secretary Bai on the phone for nearly ten minutes or so.

In fact, before this phone call, Chen Yang already had a hunch that Deputy Secretary Bai would call him personally, the reason is very simple, just two days ago, he just prevaricated the phone number of Secretary Rengao, and remembered that his attitude was not very good at that time, and Secretary Shen almost hung up the phone with this action.

Despite this, he was still slightly stunned, after all, this call came too quickly, and as a high-level provincial party committee, Deputy Secretary Bai was in a high position, and he personally made this phone call, how did he feel that it was not appropriate, wouldn't he be afraid that if those people really couldn't withstand the pressure and admitted the criminal fact that Wanfang Trading Company used military vehicles to smuggle, would he get into trouble because of this?

Putting the microphone back on the telephone, Chen Yang lit a cigarette, closed his eyes in the smoke, and slowly leaned back on the soft and comfortable high-backed boss chair.

But his mind could not calm down, and a large number of words roared out by Deputy Secretary Bai in his characteristic deep voice echoed in his mind.

"Comrade Chen Yang, you want to make it clear that now your Xizhou police have seized the transport convoy of a Hong Kong-funded company without any conclusive evidence pointing to the other party's suspected smuggling, and I can tell you very clearly, this matter has now attracted great attention from the Hong Kong government and has had a bad impact on the image of our Lingxi Province. They are loudly accusing us of having no human rights here in Lingxi, and illegally detaining their Hong Kong workers."

"Also, Deputy Director Gou of Customs called me yesterday, would you like to hear what Deputy Director Gou has to say about your people? What do you Nangang police say about their rough and arrogant attitude towards customs staff, and refusing to cooperate with the other party's investigation and evidence collection? Do you estimate that there should be a problem with these vehicles? Comrade Chen Yang, what I want now is not your personal judgment, what I want is credible evidence, if not, what will you release me immediately? Are you responsible? What do you take to blame for this? Okay, okay, don't say so much more, I don't want to listen to your explanation now, I just ask you to give an order to the Nangang side immediately, so that they can release people and cars immediately."

In the face of absolute power, Chen Yang suddenly found that any explanation of his own seemed so pale and powerless.

He didn't want to believe that Deputy Secretary Bai was entrusted by others, but in fact, he firmly believed that as long as he was given a little more time, even if it was only one day, he believed that there would be a bright turn for the better.

However, the current situation is that he did not wait for a turnaround, but waited for Deputy Secretary Bai's roar, and he could already predict that after the incident subsided, he would inevitably be severely criticized by the above, and maybe even a big mistake.

Wu Zhenbang, Da Dai, Deputy Secretary Bai, Han Haitian, Wanfang Logistics, those fake military vehicles, Hong Kong capital

And so on, one key word after another flew through his mind, which made his head suddenly become a little painful.

Finally, without waiting for the cigarette to finish, he stood up, snuffed out the remaining half of the cigarette butt in the delicate ashtray, picked up the phone, connected the extension outside, and called Xiaohu in.

Within a few seconds, Xiao Hu knocked on the door and walked in, seeing that Chen Yang's face was a little ugly, he was a little embarrassed in his heart, and asked a little worriedly: "Mayor, are you looking for me?" ”

"Hmm." Chen Yang nodded his head lightly and ordered, "Xiaohu, you are like this, you immediately set off to Nangang and verify the specific situation in detail, if there is still no new discovery before dark, this case will be like this first, and ask Li Bureau to release the convoy of Wanfang Company." By the way, I will go back and ask Li Zhixian to sort out an interrogation transcript for me. ”

"Huh?" Xiao Hu was shocked, and hurriedly said, "Mayor, this you"

During this time, for this case, he did not go to Nangang to grasp the first-hand materials, the case is not complicated, Wanfang Company's goods are worth about 680 million, through the Nangang Customs entry, although the procedures are complete, but the entry procedures are handled in the extremely ordinary form of trade such as entrepot trade.

In fact, fake entrepot real smuggling has always been the most adept method used by smugglers, the goods may be transported to a certain port in China, but not the goods to be imported in China, but to transfer the goods to other countries through this port, in this way, you can not go through the formal import procedures at the local port, but first transfer the goods to a certain bonded area or bonded warehouse for temporary storage. Often, smugglers make a big deal in this procedure, they first transfer the goods entering the port from the bonded area to the distribution center of their own smuggled goods, and then secretly cut the customs seal in the distribution center, unload the goods, and then unknowingly transport the empty container to foreign countries.

For example, the batch of goods seized by Chen Yang this time, according to the rules, should still be honestly stored in the bonded area or bonded warehouse, and only wait for the agreed time to be re-transported to the wharf and re-exported abroad. But they weren't so honest, they sneaked out as soon as they arrived in the bonded area, intending to transport them to a distribution center called Wanxin Yard at the junction of the three provinces, but they happened to be hit by Chen Yang during transportation.

Of course, these are all judgments made by Chen Yang based on his understanding of the case, but in fact, according to Wanfang Company, this is not the case. Renwanfang Company is an honest businessman, yes, this batch of goods is going to be shipped to Wanxin yard, but so what? They were going to get the goods there. As for the above-mentioned goods declared in the form of entrepot trade, it was entirely caused by the carelessness and negligence of a customs officer. Now, all the formalities have been completed, and of course, the staff member has also been severely punished, and has now been cleared home, which can be regarded as paying the price for his negligence.

Of course, discerning people will not believe Wanfang Company's rhetoric, but there is no way, the evidence in the hands of the police is insufficient, and the anti-smuggling is not under the jurisdiction of the local police, not to mention that the bonded area of Nangang is a small bonded warehouse, basically many bulk goods, whether they are really imported or do entrepot trade, must be transported to other warehouses without exception, which also gives Wanfang Company an excuse, after all, they have done it many times before.

Of course, Xiao Hu is an understanding person, and he also knows a little about the increasingly rampant smuggling crimes in Nangang

Xiao Hu was helpless, but Chen Yang had already walked out of the phone in front of him at this time, his demeanor was as usual, he smiled at Xiao Hu, and waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't do this, go quickly, just do what I say." ”

"Yes, Mayor."

Xiao Hu was just about to turn around, Chen Yang thought about it, but stopped him again: "Oh, by the way, tell Li Zhixian not to be too reluctant." ”

Xiao Hu walked out of the office suspiciously and closed the door lightly

The two large offices on the second floor of the criminal investigation detachment of the Nangang City Public Security Bureau are overcrowded at the moment, and the convoy that was arrested last time, including all the escorts, has been wiped out, and now they are all locked up in these two offices, and they are being interrogated one by one.

Each suspect was depressed, his eyelids drooped, and his whole person looked extremely decadent, but they were still carrying it to the death, gritting their teeth and persevering with the belief that they would not say anything about it, because they firmly believed that the company would have a way to get them out. In fact, they have not been caught by the police in other places in the past, but often every hour or two, they can swagger and drive away, and sometimes before they even have time to return to the public security bureau, the police who caught them have already changed their faces halfway. But they were shocked by being arrested this time, and they didn't know how to do it this time, their group had been in this ghost place for almost half a month, but there was still no letter that they could leave.

The cadres and policemen of the Nangang City Bureau, who were in charge of interrogating them, were no better, and the high-intensity interrogation work for many days in a row made their spirits a little unbearable, and the phone calls from above were urging them every day, and they did not dare to slack off, so they were divided into three groups and interrogated in shifts 24 hours a day.

But unfortunately, so far, they still haven't gained any valuable clues, not even a breakthrough, these Wanfang employees who don't look like serious people. He is particularly experienced in dealing with police investigations, not only refusing to cooperate, but also repeatedly saying that he wants to find a lawyer or something, which makes the police handling the case a headache.

Of course, the most pressure is the leaders of the Municipal Bureau, especially Li Zhixian, since he was appreciated by Chen Yang and transferred to the director of the Municipal Bureau, he has nothing to say about his work, and he is also quite skilled, and the former Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee has now completely fallen to Chen Yang, and strongly supports his work, so that his voice in the Municipal Bureau has gradually increased.

And this case was personally named by Mayor Chen to be supervised, so after receiving the mayor's call, he immediately rushed back to Nangang without saying a word, and personally sat here to handle the case, but such a simple case, and they have done their best, but the case still has not made any progress.

If he continued like this, he didn't know how to go back and face Boss Chen.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, there was a gentle knock on the door of his office that had been closed, and he seemed a little irritated to extinguish his cigarette before responding, "Who?" Come on in. ”

Soon, the door creaked open, and two people entered, a young and beautiful female police officer from the Nangang City Bureau office, and behind the female police officer was a thin man in his early thirties, wearing gold wire glasses and a briefcase.

When he saw this thin young man, Li Zhixian immediately got up from the chair, changed his expression, took three or two steps to meet him, took the initiative to stretch out his hand, and greeted him very warmly: "Xiaohu, why are you here?" Didn't you foretell me before you came? ”

Obviously, the person who came was Comrade Hu Linan, the secretary who had just been sent down by Chen Yang in the morning.

Hu Linan shook Li Zhixian's hand, and then frowned, raised his hand and slapped it a few times in front of him, and muttered in his mouth: "Ouch, I said Director Li, how many boxes of cigarettes have you smoked here, look at you, the house is full of smoke." ”

"Alas, what can be done, I still don't have a clue, those people seem to have been organized, and each one is harder than the other."

Li Zhixian replied with embarrassment, and when he talked about the case, his face became grim again.

The beautiful female police officer immediately walked to the side and reached out to open the window to let in some air.

Xiao Hu frowned when he heard this, and said to Li Zhixian with a solemn face: "Bureau Li, the mayor told me to come down and see the progress of the case, if it is before dark" Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped.

Li Zhixian understood and said to the female police officer: "Xiao Zhang, you go out first." ”

"Oh, yes, Director."

The little policewoman hurriedly answered, closed the door and went out.

As soon as the others left, Xiao Hu relayed Chen Yang's meaning to Li Zhixian.

Li Zhixian's face became more anxious after hearing this, and he paced in the house for a long time, but in the end, his face sank, he gritted his teeth violently, and scolded hatefully: "**, these people from Wanfang Company, what kind of bullshit drivers, in fact, they are all those old gangsters who used to fish in Xizhou society, just the ones who lead, and the files of the city bureau are one foot thick, fuck, toast and don't eat and drink, I really don't believe me Li Zhixian can't pry open their mouths."

After saying that, he grabbed his uniform from the chair and picked it up and was about to rush out the door.

"No, Bureau Li, don't be impulsive."

Xiao Hu hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

Li Zhixian impatiently pushed him away: "Okay, Xiaohu, I'm measured." ”

"Bureau Li, listen to me, before I came down, the mayor instructed me to tell you not to be reluctant" Xiao Hu suddenly raised his voice.

Li Zhixian was stunned and immediately softened. After being silent for a long time, he said gloomily: "Okay, let's go, you can go down with me, wait for me to ask someone to sort out the interrogation records, and then I will trouble you to bring them back to Mayor Chen." ”

Xiaohu nodded, followed Li Zhixian, and left the office quickly.
