Chapter 182: The Mud Bodhisattva Crosses the River

After Wu Mian successfully diverted the attention of the SOF investigators, the next interrogation became much easier.

In the blink of an eye, he had been under investigation for three days.

During this period, his life was two points and one line, except for detention and interrogation every day, and the content of the interrogation was almost identical.

Wu Mian knew that the other party wanted to use the tireless interrogation to find his loopholes, and as an experienced agent, he was not affected.

However, the long period of detention and isolation from the outside world also brought him a lot of psychological pressure.

Although SOF has great power, it does not mean that one hand covers the sky.

In any case, Wu Mian is still the person in charge of the Ninth Division after all, and if SOF has no evidence, he can only be detained for 48 hours at most.

Now that Zhou Tongxun has just taken the position of the leader of the security department, it is the stage of winning over others, even if he wants to set an example for others, it is impossible to give up Wu Mian, the hero who helped him ascend to the position.

Therefore, Wu Mian is very sure, and Zhou Tongxun must be running for him at this time.

Up to now, Wu Mian has not received any other notices except for interrogation, and there has been no news from Zhou Tongxun's side, which is not a good phenomenon.

At the end of the questioning, he asked the interrogator: "I have been detained here for three days, when can I leave?" ”

The interrogator closed the notebook in front of him: "We are only responsible for the interrogation, and there is no way to answer this question for you." ”

"I am a senior agent of the Ministry of Guards, and I have immunity from handling cases, and you have no right to detain me without a reasonable reason!"

Wu Mian looked at the two interrogators with a serious expression: "If you can't give me an accurate answer, I will no longer cooperate with your next questioning." ”

"I advise you not to do that, otherwise you will be the one who suffers."

The interrogator ignored Wu Mian's threat: "SOF is to enforce the law on behalf of Congress, and the immunity and laws you act as are all enacted by Congress, from a certain point of view, the power and will of Congress is your so-called law, with your identity, it should not be difficult to understand what I said." ”

"But I always want to know why I'm being held, right?"

Wu Mian looked at the interrogator: "How long do you want to detain me?" Until the investigation into the attack at Gimhae Mall is over? I think you should understand the meaning of the existence of the Nine Divisions, and if I don't go back and take charge of the Nine Divisions as soon as possible, it will cause even more trouble! In the attack on the Golden Horse Mall, there were synths, and I am far more professional in their investigation than you SOF. ”

"As I said, SOF will only act according to the will of Congress, and other things are not in our concern, including subversion in this country."

The interrogator threw down a sentence and simply turned to leave.

……

Kyoto, the private residence of a conservative dignitary.

Zhou Tongxun was sitting alone in the living room at this time.

He came for Wu Mian's case and waited here for more than three hours.

Just as he was about to give up, there was a sound of footsteps at the staircase.

Zhou Tongxun followed the prestige and saw an old man about seventy years old walking downstairs, and got up in fear: "Hello, Old Yue!" ”

"Sit down, I just had official business upstairs, so I kept you waiting."

Yue Lao said politely, but his attitude was very calm, and he didn't see any guilt at all.

"Elder Yue, you are so polite, you can take time out of your busy schedule to see me, Tongxun is already grateful."

Zhou Tongxun knew very well in his heart that the surname Yue made him wait for so long, just to give him, the newly appointed Minister of Guards, a dismissal, and let him know that he had no face and status at all among the conservatives.

Even so, Zhou Tongxun has to endure it, power is such a strange thing, if you want to be powerful and good to the below, you have to endure the cold words from above.

Yue Lao sat opposite Zhou Tongxun, and said as if chatting about family life: "I have heard him mention your help to Feng Yuzhang, and Yuzhang has mentioned it more than once, you are a talented person, since you have gone to a more important job, you look good, don't let the person who recommended you feel cold." ”

"Elder Yue's teachings, Tongxun must be engraved in his heart, and he will never dare to forget."

Zhou Tongxun nodded, and also said kind words: "After I took office, I should have come to visit a long time ago, but I have been entangled in trivial matters, so I delayed the time, please forgive me Elder Yue." ”

"It doesn't matter."

Yue Lao waved his hand, and the servant on the side quickly handed the teacup to him: "You were picked up by Feng Yuzhang, there is something that you didn't solve with him today, but came to see me through Feng Yuzhang's recommendation, is there anything he can't handle?" ”

Zhou Tongxun nodded: "Elder Yue, I know that your time is precious, so I won't go around the bend with you, I came today because one of my subordinates was detained by SOF, his name is Wu Mian, and he is the director of the Ninth Division directly under the Ministry of Security......"

Yue Lao nodded slightly: "Wu Mian, I have an impression of this name." ”

"Elder Yue, I know that SOF is the department you are in charge of, and I came to you today to hope that you can raise your noble hand and let Wu Mian go."

Zhou Tongxun is a conservative person, and he didn't beat around the bush when he spoke: "Now that I have just taken over the security department, it is the time when I need to stand up, and Wu Mian is my right-hand man, if he can't be released, it will be difficult for me to carry out my next work." ”

"You are all mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, do you still think about others?"

Elder Yue raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Tongxun: "The case in Jinhai Square this time has made the elders in the Congress very angry, and your security department, as an institution for maintaining law and order, has the greatest responsibility for this." You can get to power, it is the conservatives who have supported it, and now we are embarrassed enough except for this kind of thing. ”

Zhou Tongxun heard that Yue Lao's words were wrong, and he was shocked: "Yue Lao, I have just taken over the security department for a few days, and I haven't even completed the formalities, this matter is ......."

"It is precisely because of the above that the Ministry of Security is carrying out the transfer of power, so you are not asked to take this responsibility, what you have to do now is to investigate the case in Jinhai Square as soon as possible, even if you can't find a clue, at least you have to come out with an attitude."

Yue Lao said in a deep voice: "Instead of thinking about how to protect others, it's better to take care of yourself first, if you want to shelter others from the wind and rain, you have to grow into a tree first." ”

"Elder Yue, I am a straightforward person, and many times I may not be pleasant to speak." Zhou Tongxun insisted: "When I stood in line with Feng Yuzhang, I pulled Wu Mian to join the gang together, is it too unkind for the conservatives to give up on me at this time?" ”
