Chapter 489 Traitor
"What did you find?" Dudu came over and asked curiously.
Li Chengyang took out his cell phone from his pocket with a serious look and handed it to Du.
When he looked carefully, he saw a line of words clearly displayed on the screen: The traitor has been found, and it is Li Tianyou!
Dudu quickly covered the phone screen and whispered, "How could it be him!"
It is hard to believe that the traitor is Li Tianyou.
He then returned the phone to Li Chengyang and asked, "When did you find it?"
Li Chengyang took a deep breath and said slowly, "I received a call just before I came in. The person has been detained by the National Security Bureau. The interrogation may have ended by now."
As he said this, he deleted the sentence he had just typed. The reason why he did not make it public was because he was not sure whether there were other accomplices of Li Tianyou hiding at the scene.
Chengdu and Li Chengyang looked at each other, both of them had mixed feelings.
They could never have imagined that Li Tianyou, who usually looked righteous, always at the forefront of law enforcement and extremely active in his work, was actually a hidden traitor.
In a series of previous investigations, they had suspected many people, but they missed Li Tianyou.
Who could have expected that the most unlikely person turned out to be the traitor, which really proves the saying that one cannot judge a book by its cover.
Speaking of the traitor, the two couldn't help but feel a little scared.
Some time ago, Xu Jiayin was poisoned. If the national security authorities had not reacted quickly and intervened in time, Xu Jiayin would probably have died long ago.
Since the incident happened, the national security department immediately launched a comprehensive and detailed investigation of all personnel involved in the investigation.
However, despite the huge investment of manpower and material resources, no valuable clues were obtained and the case investigation was at a standstill.
But who could have thought that the suspect finally identified would be Li Tianyou!
"You go and take a look at the situation. I'll hold everyone back here." Dudu whispered to Li Chengyang.
Li Chengyang nodded, then pushed the door and left.
After Li Chengyang left, Dudu gathered everyone together again and began to study the case in order to delay time.
Li Chengyang went straight to the interrogation room. When he arrived, Li Tianyou was sitting on the tiger bench being interrogated.
"Captain Liu, what's going on?" Li Chengyang asked.
Guoan captain Liu Haofei glanced at Li Tianyou and explained, "They are still fighting hard. It seems that people outside the team are still hoping for a chance. But give me another three hours and I will give you an answer."
Liu Haofei didn't take Li Tianyou seriously. They had seen all kinds of people. They could even catch the most stubborn spies, let alone someone like him.
"Captain Liu, can you confirm whether he has other accomplices? If he knows that Li Tianyou has been arrested, I'm worried that he will pass the information to the outside world and give the opponent time to prepare." Li Chengyang said worriedly.
Liu Haofei explained: "We cannot rule out this possibility. After our analysis, these three people are also suspects." Then he gave three names.
"I understand. Captain Liu, please hurry up." Li Chengyang nodded solemnly.
Li Chengyang then returned to the case research room and whispered to Du about the results of the investigation.
Dudu thought for a moment, then said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Take someone to Handong, nominally to retrieve the investigation materials from Handong."
Li Chengyang nodded to show that he understood.
Then, Dudu said loudly to everyone: "Director Li just received news from Handong that a project manager in Handong Province confessed that he and Xu Jiayin are cousins and know a lot of inside information.
Now I need some of you to go to Handong, first to obtain the statement of the project manager, and second to question him in detail and obtain more evidence. "
"Governor Cheng, let me take some people there." Li Chengyang replied.
"That's what I was thinking. Thank you, Director Li. You can choose the accompanying personnel yourself." Dudu and Li Chengyang cooperated with each other tacitly.
Li Chengyang nodded, then pointed at a few people and said, "Song Wenwei, Niu Jinhu, Li Hua, Zheng Dajun, Li Yanjun, the five of you come with me."
"Okay, Director Li." Among the people Li Chengyang pointed out were three suspects.
"Time is running out, Director Li, you guys should set off now. Thank you for your hard work." Dudu continued.
"No problem, we'll set off now." After saying that, he took the five people and drove to Jingzhou in a business car.
The reason for taking the car was, firstly, to set off in time and not give them the opportunity to pass on information to the outside world. It also had another meaning, which was to keep the three suspects under his nose so that it would be easier to find out who the real traitor was.
Their driver is none other than a national security elite. His presence is just in case, in case the three suspects are real traitors and he has the force to take them down.
After Li Chengyang left, Du went directly to see Xu Jiayin. He believed that after this assassination, he should have changed and he could ask something.
"Xu Jiayin, what do you think now?" Dudu stared at Xu Jiayin and asked.
Xu Jiayin's heart had not yet calmed down. He had originally thought that the big shots outside would find a way to rescue him, or offer him favorable conditions in exchange for him shutting up. However, he did not expect that the other party was planning to silence him directly.
"Are you confused as to why they are so eager to kill people and silence them?" Du stared at Xu Jiayin closely, trying to see through his heart.
Xu Jiayin remained silent. Even if he didn't say the extent, he guessed the intention of the person behind the scenes. He just didn't expect the other party to be so anxious and kill people to silence them without even considering the transaction.
What he couldn't figure out now was why they were so sure that he didn't leave any backup evidence for his wife and children. Was it because his confidant betrayed him or because someone behind the scenes guessed his thoughts?
The reason why he did not leave any evidence for his family was because he was afraid that someone would cause trouble for them if something happened to him.
Without waiting for Xu Jiayin to speak, Dudu said directly: "Are you still harboring illusions, hoping that the person behind the scenes will rescue you?
I tell you, no one can rescue you unless the leader himself orders you to live, but this is impossible. Don't think I'm exaggerating.
Your case is one that the top leader has personally issued instructions for and has repeatedly urged us to investigate thoroughly. Do you think anyone would risk their life to rescue you?
The fact that you have been able to grow your business to such a big size, even though there are elements of breaking laws and disciplines, also shows that you are a smart person. I have explained it so clearly, you should understand that you will not be able to get out of this life.
Since we can't rescue you, how can we ensure the safety of those outside? Do you think you can keep silent?"
Degree paused for a moment and continued, “Obviously they don’t have much trust in you, so they took what they thought was the best approach and made you shut up forever.
Only in this way can they be completely at ease and not worry about their secrets being leaked.
To them, as long as you live one day, you are a time bomb that can explode at any time. "The purpose of Dudu's words was to shatter the last remaining fantasy in Xu Jiayin's heart.
What he didn't know was that Xu Jiayin had already lost his illusions at this time. He was just worried about his family's safety after he confessed.
Seeing that Xu Jiayin didn't say anything, he raised his voice and said, "Xu Jiayin, tell me, what are your thoughts and demands?"
After a long while, Xu Jiayin slowly raised his head and spoke with difficulty in a hoarse and trembling voice: "If...if I tell everything truthfully, how can you guarantee that my family will not be retaliated against?"
In response to Xu Jiayin's question, Dudu said calmly, "Do you know who is protecting you and your family now?"
Xu Jiayin asked in a hoarse voice: "Who is it?"
"Staff members of the national security department, commonly known as the Imperial Guards." Dudu said indifferently.
Seeing Xu Jiayin's surprised expression, Du continued, "Don't doubt it, it's them. If it weren't for them, you wouldn't be here now.
With their protection, I believe no one can threaten the safety of you and your family. Moreover, the sooner you confess the problem, the sooner those behind the scenes will be arrested.
As long as they are inside, your wife and children will no longer be in danger."
Seeing that Xu Jiayin was somewhat interested, Dudu continued, "If you are still worried, I will personally transfer your wife and children tonight and not let anyone know their whereabouts. I will let them out after the case is over."
Xu Jiayin stared at Dudu and asked, "Is what you said true?"
