Chapter 231: Biting Li Ya
Chapter 231: Biting Li Ya
Wu Jingzhong has always been clear about struggle.
He didn't believe Mao Renfeng's nonsense at all.
Wiping tears in front of people and stabbing them in the back is a common tactic used by a smiling tiger.
Shen Zui believed this nonsense and was deceived to the point of being completely upset.
In order to completely eliminate Sanmao's covetousness for Jinhai, Mao Wanli must be nailed to death so that he will never dare to have even the slightest thought about this piece of land.
Soon, Sun Xing was brought up.
"Jianfeng, you come and ask." Mrs. Jiang said coldly.
"Sun Xing, are you still conscious and able to speak?" Jianfeng asked.
"Yes." Sun Xing nodded slightly in pain.
"Tell me, who instructed you to sneak into the hall and assassinate the two ladies?" Jianfeng asked.
"No, no one."
Sun Xing looked towards Mao Renfeng.
Mao Renfeng's hair stood up all over his body, his face changed slightly and he said:
"Sun Xing, think carefully before you speak in front of your wife and Jianfeng."
The cold voice was full of threats.
"Director Mao, I didn't ask you to interrogate him, did I?" the lady frowned unhappily.
"Yes."
Mao Renfeng glared at Sun Xing coldly and lowered his head.
"Hold your head up, just tell the truth. With me here, no one can threaten you." said the lady.
"Yes, it's Mao Wanli, Director Mao." Sun Xing said.
A trace of surprise flashed across Mao Renfeng's eyes, and his heart fell into an ice hole.
"Is there any evidence?" Jianfeng asked.
"have.
"Niu Xingui from the Bureau of Secret Affairs came to see me and gave me a note from Director Mao.
“There is Director Mao’s handwriting on it, you can find someone to authenticate it.
“And his usual symbol, a five-petal plum blossom.
"Since I haven't worked for the headquarters for a long time and this matter is of great importance, I specifically asked Niu Xingui to call Director Mao.
"Director Mao confirmed the assassination with me over the phone."
Although Sun Xing's tone was weak, his eyes showed a strong desire to survive.
"Jingzhong, can we check the phone records?" Jianfeng turned and looked at Wu Jingzhong.
"able.
"According to Director Mao's instructions, our station has unified internal departments to monitor each other, and the Finance Department has installed monitoring equipment because the matter is of great importance.
“The recordings can be adjusted by the people in the monitoring room.”
Wu Jingzhong said.
"Call someone immediately and ask them to come over." Jianfeng ordered.
Soon someone sent over a recording of the phone call.
"Let someone identify it." Jianfeng has always been principled, even when acting.
Someone was immediately assigned to authenticate the recording.
"Madam, Jianfeng, from the preliminary identification of the recording, it is a call between Director Mao and Sun Xing. The telephone bureau also has a clear record. The call was indeed made from Director Mao's house at No. 38 Hulu Lane.
"But for further identification, we have to go to Jingling headquarters and use more advanced technical equipment."
Those who come for appraisal should report truthfully.
"How do you know the secret passage underground in the hotel?" Jianfeng continued to interrogate.
“Director Mao told me.
"I don't know the exact source, but he said to sneak in through the secret passage while Lin Tai is giving a speech..."
Sun Xing said without missing a word.
Mao Renfeng broke out in cold sweat.
Confused.
There is no other way. You can't just call Jinhai Station. Isn't that walking into a trap?
Hey!
"Jingzhong, have you recorded it?" Jianfeng asked.
"Everything has been recorded." Wu Jingzhong said efficiently.
"Then take him away." Jianfeng said.
"and many more.
"Besides Mao Wanli, has anyone else given you instructions?
“Don’t be afraid, you can tell anyone who it is.
"I can guarantee your safety."
The lady stopped Jianfeng and interjected.
Jianfeng and Mao Renfeng's hearts began to beat wildly.
Madam has the public opinion and power of the United States.
Once the situation gets out of hand, the chairman won’t be able to handle it, and with Lin Tai’s influence, it will be difficult for him to clean up the mess.
Now, I have finally accumulated some reputation and am ready to be the successor.
If I fall out with my wife over this matter and cut off American aid, it will be troublesome.
"Speak." The lady's tone became heavier.
"No.
“I followed Ma Kui, the special commissioner of the headquarters, to Jinhai. After Captain Ma’s identity as a red ticket Emei Peak was exposed, although I was not punished, I have always been an idle chess piece.
"Director Mao contacted me suddenly through a single line."
Sun Xing said truthfully.
“Take him down.
"Ask Guo Danian to come up." the lady ordered.
Jianfeng and Mao Renfeng looked at each other and both breathed a sigh of relief.
Guo Danian was quickly brought in.
He spoke even faster, and his wife played the emotional card, so he told her everything.
After both witnesses were taken away, several people started a discussion.
"Commander Chen, what do you think?" Jianfeng looked at Chen Changjie.
"I will listen to my wife and you." Chen Changjie expressed his attitude.
"Director Mao, the situation is basically clear now. Mao Wanli is suspected of assassinating Lin Tai. There is both witnesses and evidence. You are his relative and his direct superiors. What do you think?" Jianfeng said.
"Madam, Comrade Jianfeng, I know nothing about this matter.
“It was not until something happened to me that I realized Wanli had come to Tianjin.
"He, he was influenced by Dai Li's old ways, so he did stupid things." Mao Renfeng explained.
"So is he here to assassinate Lin Tai, or me?"
The lady looked at him and Jianfeng coldly, then stood up and left.
This sentence was undoubtedly like a thunderclap, which stunned everyone present.
Regarding Lin Tai, it is understandable that the party and the state have different positions.
If there was a conspiracy to assassinate my wife, no one could bear the responsibility.
Apart from anything else, don’t even think about passing the chairman’s level.
It's obvious that the lady is serious this time.
……
Jinhai Station.
Wu Jingzhong shook his sore wrist and said, "I haven't written so many words in many years.
"Where's Niu Xingui?"
"It has been dealt with. It is better to have less trouble at this time.
"I've gone too far in the review. If it really involves Jianfeng, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for the teacher."
Hong Zhiyou replied.
"Well, once a woman becomes impulsive, it's easy for her to lose her rationality. It's good for her to cool down appropriately." Wu Jingzhong nodded.
“Also, Li Ya, you have to give him a beating.
“It’s a rare opportunity.
"At least he should be put out of his misery in Jianfeng.
“Go to the hospital.
"Jianfeng may have to meet him tomorrow."
After a pause, Wu Jingzhong reminded.
"I'll go right away." Hong Zhiyou said.
“By the way, you need to find the media to report on Zecheng’s bravery in capturing the assassin to protect his wife.
"Madam is in a bad mood right now, and Jianfeng will definitely have to give her some benefits to appease her.
“One goes up, one goes down.
"Li Ya's colonel aura is just about enough."
Wu Jingzhong nodded and gave another instruction.
"Teacher, you have considered the overall situation and it is foolproof." Hong Zhiyou flattered.
"Go ahead.
"Look for the person first and wait for Jianfeng to summon him."
Wu Jingzhong said.
……
Hong Zhiyou bought a fruit basket and came to the Army Hospital.
After having his stomach washed and having been on intravenous saline drip for a whole night, Li Ya looked terribly pale, like an eggplant hit by frost. Yan Ba's eyes were blurred.
"Captain Lee.
"I'm sorry. The stationmaster, Director Yu, and I knew you were in the hospital, so we wanted to rush over as soon as possible, but we never expected such a big incident to happen.
“Jianfeng and Director Mao are here.
"I just finished entertaining you, so I took the time to come and see you. Don't be offended."
Hong Zhiyou put down the fruit basket and said with an apologetic smile.
"Jianfeng is here?" Li Ya, who was originally dazed, sat up in shock.
"Yes.
"You said that Jianfeng needed you the most right now, so why did you fall ill?" Hong Zhiyou said.
"Why.
"Don't mention it. I've had a bad year and met a really bad person."
Li Ya was so angry that his teeth were itching.
He was convinced that Mao Wanli was afraid that he would go back on his word and go and assassinate Lin Tai on his own to win credit, so he put poison in the pot.
This medicine works very quickly.
There were other diners in the restaurant at the time.
Many pots were empty, but no one got sick.
Only he made such a big fuss that he nearly lost his life.
The hospital's examination results also proved that it was poisoning.
Apart from the Bureau of Secrets and despicable people like Mao Wanli, Li Ya could not think of anyone else.
"Have you read the newspaper?" Hong Zhiyou asked.
“Don’t mention it.
“I didn’t even have the strength to hold the newspaper.
"I just recovered a little bit now, and everything I see is blurry."
Li Ya was not stupid, he did not dare to say that he had met Mao Wanli.
“Jianfeng and Director Mao are here.
"No, it can't be that Lin Tai has already..." Li Ya said in surprise and joy.
"No.
“It was the assassin who was caught.
"Who do you think it is?"
Hong Zhiyou smiled and habitually took out a cigarette from his pocket, but put it back as soon as he took it.
"Who?" Li Ya asked nervously.
"Sun Xing, the accountant of our Secret Service, is the one who used to run errands for Ma Kui." Hong Zhiyou said.
“It’s hidden well enough.
"Then, then did he give up Director Mao?" Li Ya forced a smile and asked uneasily.
“Yes.
"And there's my wife's cook, Guo Danian. All the evidence points to Mao Wanli.
“Jianfeng is reviewing the matter.
“This case is important.
"To sum it up in ten words, the lady is very angry and the consequences are serious."
Hong Zhiyou tried to scare him first.
"Mao, where is Mao Wanli?" Li Ya was indeed panicked.
“He was caught.
"I guess Jianfeng and Director Mao will interrogate him today." Anyone involved with him will be in trouble.
“I came to see you today just to ask if you have had any private contact with Mao Wanli.
“If there is, it will be troublesome.”
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
"I didn't." Li Ya answered without thinking.
"All right.
“Then the stationmaster and I can rest assured.
"No one dares to protect Mao Wanli now, for fear that he will become desperate and bite others."
Hong Zhiyou stood up, left Li Ya behind and left.
Li Ya sat on the bed, terrified.
He has met Mao Wanli.
He also gave Mao Wanli the map of the secret passage.
If they expose him, the matter will directly involve Jianfeng.
The little bit of goodwill I had accumulated with Jianfeng with great difficulty was all gone!
Damn!
A good-for-nothing who is always causing trouble!
……
International Hotel.
Mao Renfeng was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and his usually steady pace became unsteady.
I have been struggling in Jingling for so many years.
Mao Renfeng knew very well that those in power would kick out these running dogs and lackeys without hesitation when their interests were harmed.
How did Boss Dai die?
Even if others don’t know, how can he not guess it?
Given Dai Li's caution, it would be difficult for outsiders to tamper with the plane.
There is only the air traffic control center in Qingdao.
The person in charge over there is from the Iron-Blooded Youth League.
Boss Dai.
The person the chairman trusted the most, even at one point closer to him than his wife, could be abandoned without showing any mercy.
What is a mere Mao Wanli?
Once the lady insists on investigating it.
For Wanli, it’s not just a punishment, he might even lose his life.
After all, the assassination of Lin Tai and the assassination of his wife are two completely different events.
The former is tacitly approved by the Chairman.
The latter would mean the death of the Jiang father and son.
Thinking of this, he stood up and walked towards the room on the third floor. There was a guard guarding the door.
"I want to ask some questions." Mao Renfeng took a look and understood what was going on.
Jianfeng persuaded his wife to get rid of the American man.
This is to create opportunities and space for him to play.
What if I can’t hold it in?
Maybe he will even turn the guillotine inward and send Mao Wanli to death.
"Sixth brother, how could you be so careless and confused?
“Why call the Secret Service directly?
"And that cook and Sun Xing, they both insist it's you, why didn't you handle the follow-up before doing anything?
“Madam has a strong prejudice against you now.
"If you don't handle this properly, you'll be in big trouble."
Mao Renfeng closed the door and started cursing.
"Brother, there is nothing I can do.
“Who knew that the person in charge of security was an American? My plans were completely disrupted.
"It's also those seven words of yours. Besides, if it weren't for your 'if I don't succeed, I'll die', I wouldn't have gone to find Sun Xing and Li Ya." Mao Wanli said helplessly.
"What seven words? It's six words.
“No wonder Boss Dai always hoped that you would go to America for further studies.
"You are so impatient. You are the only one who wants to be the stationmaster of Jinhai."
Mao Renfeng said angrily.
As he spoke, his short eyebrows sank: "Wait, you just said that you looked for Li Ya?"
"Yes.
"He was the one who told me the secret passage into the International Hotel."
Mao Wanli said.
As they spoke, the two of them looked into each other's eyes and suddenly beamed with joy.
"Li Ya is from Jianfeng.
"If you insist on accusing Li Ya, Jianfeng will be involved." Mao Renfeng laughed.
"That's right.
"Madam, if you still don't know the big picture, Jianfeng wants to execute him secretly. I can also bring Li Ya with me, so that you won't be so lonely on the road to the underworld.
"Madam, you have to consider Jianfeng and the impact. If you let go, Li Ya and I will have a chance to survive."
Mao Wanli also started laughing.
"At night, during the court session, you must bite Li Ya to death in front of the lady, just like Sun Xing bit you.
"Brother, whether you can survive depends entirely on fate. May our Mao family ancestors bless you."
Mao Renfeng patted his shoulder, stood up and walked out.
……
Jinhai Station.
Hong Zhiyou is answering the phone:
"okay, I get it.
"Thank you."
After hanging up the phone, he went to Wu Jingzhong's office.
"Teacher, Zhang Jing just called me and said that Mao Renfeng went to meet Mao Wanli. As for the security of the US military, I discussed the situation with my wife in private and she agreed to withdraw." Hong Zhiyou said.
“Well, I’ll see.
“If we don’t see each other, it will be a dead end.
"Mao Wanli will definitely betray Li Ya.
"In order to protect his sixth brother, Mao Renfeng will definitely try his best to drag Li Ya into the water." Wu Jingzhong said with a smile.
"Yes.
"When Li Ya goes into the water, Jianfeng will inevitably get stained.
"Mao Renfeng is really taking a risk." Hong Zhiyou said.
"Yes.
“Jianfeng is not stupid.
"If Mao Wanli dares to bite Li Ya, it will be a slap in Jianfeng's face.
“Even if Mao Wanli and Li Ya were saved in the end, Mao Renfeng had seriously offended Jianfeng in this round.
“It will be difficult for Mao Wanli to climb up.
"Don't even mention Li Ya, Jianfeng will definitely punish him.
“I will then propose to strip him of his colonel rank.
"Without this reputation, he won't be able to do evil, and Jinhai Station will be truly peaceful."
Wu Jingzhong said.
"Teacher Shengming, no matter what the result is this time, our Jinhai Station will make a lot of money." Hong Zhiyou said with a smile.
“So, God is watching what you do.
"Don't always try to take advantage of others, or you may end up in trouble."
Wu Jingzhong said with narrowed eyes.
"Teacher, Director Mao is here." Yu Zecheng walked in to report.
"That's it.
“Go to the warehouse and pick out a few nice things.
"I estimate that this matter can be resolved in no time. When you leave, prepare some for Ermao and each of them.
"If you slap someone in the face but don't give them a good response, it will be hard to end it in the future."
Wu Jingzhong ordered.
"Yes."
Yu Zecheng took the order and went out.
"Come on, follow me to meet Director Mao." Wu Jingzhong ordered.
Arrived at the reception room.
Mao Renfeng was drinking tea. When he saw Wu Jingzhong, he stood up and greeted him:
"Jingzhong, I have just received some important intelligence and I need to discuss it with you."
"Director Mao, please speak. I am all ears." Wu Jingzhong said respectfully.
“I just met Wanli.
"He revealed a shocking piece of news. The secret passage to the hotel was provided by your station's action team leader, Li Ya, and Li Ya already had the idea of executing the plan.
"Stationmaster Wu, if this matter is discovered, it will be disadvantageous to you."
Mao Renfeng never mentioned Jianfeng, and instead tried to involve Wu Jingzhong.
"Director Mao, you think too much.
"Li Ya is a member of the Jianfeng Iron-Blooded Youth League. He handled the last espionage case on his own, and I always followed his orders.
“I have recorded all the important matters of the station.
"Whether I instructed Li Ya or he did it himself, it's clear at a glance."
Wu Jingzhong smiled and ignored it.
"This is where the difficulty lies. You said that if he betrayed Li Ya, it would make Jianfeng lose face." Mao Renfeng was in a dilemma.
Wu Jingzhong knew that he wanted to say it himself so that any mistakes in the future would be blamed on him.
He had already experienced all these bumps and potholes.
"Director Mao, Mao Wanli is your sixth brother, so it's not appropriate for me, an outsider, to interfere.
"Moreover.
"You and Jianfeng are the chief judges in this matter, so what's the point of me talking here?
"You should talk to Jianfeng directly."
Wu Jingzhong refused with a smile on his face.
What a bastard... Mao Renfeng cursed inwardly and didn't ask any more questions.
After Wu Jingzhong left, he frowned and began to think deeply.
He will report directly to Jianfeng.
It is very likely that Jianfeng would take advantage of the fact that Mao Wanli had not yet delivered his task and get rid of Li Ya first.
By then, there will be no evidence to prove the truth.
Mao Renfeng didn't dare to play with his sixth brother's life and gamble on the mercy of those in power.
Instead, it suddenly broke out.
With his wife around, Jianfeng can't deny it even if he wants to.
Well, that could be it.
……
eight pm.
The interrogation team came to the hotel's conference room again.
Mao Wanli was brought in.
Jianfeng glanced at this "veteran" of the Military Control Commission and said in a deep voice:
"Show him the stuff."
Mao Wanli took the materials handed over by Wu Jingzhong, frowned and said, "Most of it is true."
"Who sent you to assassinate me and my sister?" the lady asked coldly.
“No one.
“I am a follower of Boss Dai and I want to take this opportunity to fulfill his last wish, that’s all.
“Besides, I have no intentions against Madam, nor do I dare to have any thoughts.
"I can swear to the chairman on this."
Mao Wanli swore an oath to the photo frame on the wall.
“Sun Xing said that you were the one who told him the secret passage.
“How did you know that?
"You probably aren't familiar with Jin Hai, do you have any accomplices?"
The lady asked again.
"Yes...Li Ya from Jinhai Station!" Mao Wanli said.
"What nonsense!"
Jianfeng slammed the table and stood up.
