"Let me out! Let me out!" Ma Linhui's handcuffed hands gripped the iron bars tightly and shouted with all his might.
These days, the director of the Guchuan County Public Security Bureau, Jiang Yongchang, had deliberately neglected Ma Linhui. He did not let him see anyone and even told the guards not to talk to him. Using this cold treatment method was exhausting his willpower.
Ma Linhui was obviously much thinner than when he first came in. His hair was like a bird's nest, his beard was unkempt, his cheeks were sunken into two grooves, his cheekbones were prominent, his dry lips opened and closed, and his eyes were filled with fear and panic. One could even see his longing for freedom from his dilated pupils. His hands were shaking, and his body was twitching from time to time. He would roar crazily when his drug addiction kicked in. He would roll on the ground holding his head, banging his head against the wall. His body was badly mutilated, and it was a horrible sight to behold.
Looking at Ma Linhui today, who would have thought that he used to be a brilliant entrepreneur and a respected figure in Bei Zhou City? But now, he had become like this!
After Ma Linhui was locked up, the most surprising thing was that no one came to see him. Even his wife and daughter did not show up, let alone his' brother '. On the contrary, Zhang Sandan's wife stayed at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau all day, crying and begging to see him. When a person was in trouble, no matter how well they boasted, they would know if it was real or not.
Ma Linhui could not blame anyone for falling to such a state. He could only blame himself for committing too many sins. Everything was his own fault.
"I want to see Director Jiang. I have something important to tell him. It's about Secretary Hou." Ma Linhui saw that the guards were ignoring him, so he threw out such an important message. The guards did not dare to delay and quickly reported to Jiang Yongchang. After hearing this, Jiang Yongchang put down his work and quickly walked into the detention room.
Seeing Ma Linhui like this, Jiang Yongchang felt some sympathy. He frowned and covered his mouth, "Open the door!"
As soon as Jiang Yongchang entered, Ma Linhui knelt in front of Jiang Yongchang and begged with longing in his eyes, "Director Jiang, I beg you, please get me some noodles. I can't take it anymore."
"You're still thinking about this at a time like this. Just give up." Jiang Yongchang kicked Ma Linhui away and sat down on the interrogation table.
Ma Linhui crawled in front of Jiang Yongchang like a dog and hugged his leg: "Chief Jiang, if you let me take a breath, I will tell you about Secretary Hou's car accident."
"Really?" Jiang Yongchang jumped off the table and stared at Ma Linhui.
"I swear, I will definitely tell you!" Ma Linhui made an oath.
Jiang Yongchang arranged for his subordinates to give him two shots of tranquilizer. Only then did the restless Ma Linhui calm down. He leaned against the corner of the room, closed his eyes, and took deep breaths.
Jiang Yongchang threw a pack of cigarettes in front of Ma Linhui and said, "Don't even think about drugs, but I can provide you with cigarettes. If you perform well, I can contact a drug rehabilitation center to help you relieve your drug addiction. "
Ma Linhui couldn't wait to unpack the entire cigarette and stuff it into his mouth with trembling hands. Jiang Yongchang lit the cigarette for him, and Ma Linhui inhaled deeply. He didn't even let go of the smoke. After a while, the pack of cigarettes was gone.
Ma Linhui, who was satisfied, was still leaning against the corner. A ray of sunlight shone through the narrow iron window and hit Ma Linhui's face. Ma Linhui squinted his eyes and tried to touch the sunlight with his hands. But the sunlight was quickly blocked by the clouds, and the cell returned to darkness.
"Where is Zhang Sandan locked up?" Ma Linhui asked.
"Not far, at the other end of the corridor." Jiang Yongchang said.
Ma Linhui asked weakly: "Has anyone come to see me these days?"
"I'm sorry, no one has come to see you. But your brother has been visited by a lot of people. It seems like the second brother of your four great king kong, Qin Erbao and Hemp Pole, came to see him. "Jiang Yongchang said casually.
Ma Linhui didn't expect this sentence to provoke him. He suddenly stood up, but because of his unstable center of gravity, he fell to the ground. When he stood up again, his trembling lips squeezed out a few words: "They are here?"
Jiang Yongchang said: "Yes. You want to ask why they didn't come to see you, right?"
Ma Linhui was silent, dead silent.
"Let me tell you!" Jiang Yongchang sat up and said: "Not only they didn't come to see you, but they also cooperated with the police to find a lot of drugs in your other two strongholds. Also, your concubine has filed for divorce. Are you surprised? "
"Haha … …" Ma Linhui suddenly laughed, and there were tears in his eyes. His former brother was now standing on the opposite side of him. Although he had expected it, he didn't expect it to happen so fast.
After laughing, Ma Linhui became unusually calm. He gritted his teeth and said: "Chief Jiang, I beg you one more time. I want to see Director Li."
"Which Director Li? The City People's Congress Director Li? Then don't even think about it. " Jiang Yongchang said: "You are locked up here, so you don't know what happened outside. Then I will give you a simple explanation. The City People's Congress had held a meeting to remove your qualification as a deputy. Do you think it is necessary to see Director Li again? Even if you want to see him, will he see you? "
"Ah?" Ma Linhui sat on the ground, extinguishing his last hope of survival.
Jiang Yongchang squatted in front of Ma Linhui, tidied his hair, and said: "Ma Linhui, at a time like this, everyone wants to protect themselves. The others can't wait to cut off all relations with you. I have been doing this for a long time, and I have seen this kind of thing many times, so it is not strange. So, at critical times, you still have to rely on yourself. Rely on others? It is all fake. Tell me, if you can't even rely on your wife, who else can you rely on?
"Ma Linhui, I admire that you are a man, so I will talk to you a little more. You started from a ruffian, became a businessman, and then relied on all kinds of connections to increase your reputation. This is an old path that everyone will take. But for thousands of years, have you ever seen a businessman fight against an official? Fan Li, or Hu Xueyan? You only have yourself to blame for what has happened to you today. You are too confident, too complacent, and think that you are a big shot. You are not afraid of anything, and you are tyrannical in Bei Zhou City. You think others do not know? They are not fools, but they have their eyes on the money in your pocket. Smart people know when to stop and get rid of it as soon as possible, but you are not. In the end, you fell into a trap of your own making and became what you are today. I am telling you all this in the hope that you will cooperate with our investigation. Perhaps in the future, when we enter the judicial process, considering your voluntary cooperation, we will appropriately reduce your sentence. Do you understand? "
These words deeply touched Ma Linhui. He placed his palm on the wall and used his nails to draw five long lines.
Jiang Yongchang stood up and said: "Alright, I have said what I need to say. Next, it is up to your performance. Don't you have something to say to me?"
Ma Linhui lit his cigarette again and said in a low voice: "I want to report Li Hugang, Secretary Hou was killed by him."
Hearing this, Jiang Yongchang immediately became alert. He walked to the door of the detention room and said to the police on guard: "You guys go away, I will call you when I need you." After turning around, he asked: "What did you say? Say it again! "
"Secretary Hou was killed by Li Hugang."
"Do you have evidence?"
"Yes!" Ma Linhui's blood-red eyes were burning as he said, "That night, after you let me out, I used Zhang Sandan's phone to call Li Hugang's wife on the way to escape. The first thing she said was, 'Is Hou Yongzhi dead?' When she found out that Hou Yongzhi was not dead, she said angrily: 'Why is he not dead? She sounded like she wanted to cut him into a thousand pieces. '"
Jiang Yongchang's eyes widened. He did not dare to confirm whether Ma Linhui was telling the truth or not. He said: "The level of your story is too low. Li Hugang's wife had no enmity with Hou Yongzhi, why would she want to kill him?"
"If I lied, I will be struck by lightning!" Ma Linhui continued: "Li Hugang and Hou Yongzhi had a grudge, plus I was caught this time. Zhang Xiaoe has the heart of a woman, she thought that Secretary Hou was messing with Li Hugang, so she hired someone to cause this car accident."
Jiang Yongchang believed it, but he was more shocked than angry. He said: "Then where is Zhang Xiaoe now?"
"You won't be able to catch her. She has escaped overseas. All these years, I've worked so hard to earn so much money for them, but in the end, I was still kicked away like a dog. As long as you dare to arrest Li Hugang, I'll spill everything I know. "Ma Linhui said.
"What about the murderer? Where is he now? "Jiang Yongchang asked.
Ma Linhui said: "I don't know who the murderer is, but I think it might be Zhang Xiaoe's driver."
"What's his name? Where does he live? "
"I don't know his full name, but I know his name is Liao San, and he lives in Jiefang Road and Qing Jiayuan District in Bei Zhou City."
"Good, good!" Jiang Yongchang said excitedly: "Ma Linhui, you have done a good deed. I will remember it." After that, he ran out of the detention room like the wind.
Jiang Yongchang ran to the Public Security Bureau's compound, and saw that there was not a single car there. He anxiously cursed: "Where the f * ck are they? When I need to use the car, they are all gone."
At this time, a dilapidated police car entered the compound. He could not care less about his image. He pulled the police officer out of the car, jumped into the car, and drove out of the compound.
As the car sped on the road, Jiang Yongchang did not forget to call Guo Jinzhu and Li Zhentang from the Municipal Public Security Bureau. He stammered: "The murderer has been found, the murderer has been found …"
Guo Jinzhu, who was in the middle of a meeting, heard the news and immediately rushed out of the meeting room to call Li Zhentang: "Quickly deploy the police force and surround Heqing Jiayuan!"
In an instant, the sky above Bei Zhou City was filled with ear-piercing sirens. Seven or eight police cars did not give way to pedestrians. They whizzed past and gathered at the designated location at full speed …
At the same time, Zhang Zhiyuan, who was far away in Nanyang County, also heard the good news. He put down everything and headed to the city with Lu Yiwei.
