Because of Li Dongzhi's physical condition, the interrogation did not last long.
As one of the two escapees, Li Dongzhi's willingness to confess was of great significance.
Li Dongzhi promised to testify against Shi Da. For himself, he could fight for a reduced sentence, but for Shi Da, it was a fatal blow.
It was already past noon when the two left the hospital. They found a good restaurant on the way and were ready to fill their stomachs before returning to the station.
The restaurant was not large, only a hundred square meters. The dishes were relatively simple: knife-shaved noodles, stewed ribs, and cold dishes.
The two ordered a large portion of stewed ribs, a rice cold dish, and two large bowls of knife-shaved noodles.
It would be wonderful if there was a bottle of cold beer at this time.
It was a pity that they could not drink during work, which was a little regretful.
Ma Jingbo picked up a piece of stewed ribs and took a bite. It tasted good and he could not stop eating. After finishing a piece, he wiped his hands and said, "Not bad, this is the right place to come."
Han Bin's mouth was full of fragrance, and he said vaguely, "I looked it up on the Internet. It has a good reputation, and it's on the way."
"Li Dongzhi's side is settled. Let's try to take down Shi Da today, and this case will be considered solved." Ma Jingbo glanced around and whispered, "This case is being watched very closely. The earlier the case is closed, everyone can breathe a sigh of relief."
"Okay, when we return to the station, I will visit Shi Da and see if his' illness' is better." Han Bin responded, then seemed to think of something and said.
"Although Li Dongzhi knows that the person who will help him is Shi Da, he has not had direct contact with him, let alone seen Shi Da. The person who has been in contact with Shi Da has always been Li Dongzhi's father, Li Hongshan. "
"Previously, Li Hongshan refused to confess because he wanted to give his son the opportunity to reduce his sentence. Now, Li Dongzhi has confessed. Now that Li Dongzhi has confessed, there is no need for Li Hongshan to continue to carry on. "
Ma Jingbo took a sip of the noodle soup and asked, "Are you going to interrogate Li Hongshan first, and then interrogate Shi Da?"
Han Bin waved his hand. "Li Hongshan is not a big problem. I think Li Qin will be fine. Li Qin has been talking well with the other party before, and I believe no one is more suitable than her."
"I'll leave it to you," Ma Jingbo said and continued to gnaw on the bone.
Ding Ling Ling …
At that moment, Han Bin's phone rang. He took it out and saw Li Hui's number on the screen.
"Captain Ma, you eat first. I have to take a call."
"Go."
After leaving the restaurant, Han Bin picked up the call and smiled, "Team Leader Li, what's the matter?"
"Leader Han, what have you been up to recently? I haven't seen you in so long."
"What else? Investigating a case, of course."
"Are you also investigating Zhu Wei's prison case?"
Han Bin did not answer directly. "There are only so many people in the bureau. Someone has to investigate."
"I didn't expect that there would be a case that could stump our Team Leader Han."
"Stop talking nonsense. Tell me, why are you looking for me?"
"That's good."
"What good can you have for me?"
Li Hui chuckled and said with a hint of pride, "Isn't it a good thing that I invited you to my wedding?"
"Don't talk nonsense, let's get down to business. I'm eating right now. "
"Brother Bin, I'm serious. I'm getting married."
"Really?"
"More serious than real gold?"
"When is it?"
"End of June."
"F * ck, that's fast. Why didn't you mention it before? You've only known each other for less than a year, right? Why are you in such a hurry to get married?"
"Feelings are hard to predict. If it feels right, two people are happy together, and we're at the age to get married. What's there to hesitate about?"
"Not bad. You're actually ahead of me, kid."
"That's for sure." Li Hui changed the topic. "Alright, go eat first. I'll send you a WeChat invitation later with the specific time and address."
"You took the wedding photos too?"
"I just took them two days ago. They're probably out soon. I originally wanted to ask you to be my best man, but I thought about it carefully and decided not to. You're busier than me. If you stand me up at a critical time, where am I going to find someone to fill in? "
"I can't promise to be your best man, but I'll definitely go and help when I have time."
"I know you're busy. It's fine even if you don't come and help. I can understand. However, you have to attend the wedding on the day of the wedding."
Han Bin's tone was firm. "Definitely."
"Alright, go do what you need to do. We'll talk later." Li Hui yawned and complained, "I've been crazy busy these past few days. I've been working and preparing for the wedding."
"I really want to rest for a day without doing anything."
After hanging up, Han Bin still felt that it was a little unbelievable. The call was too sudden. It felt unreal.
…
Liquefied Gas Hostel.
Two o 'clock in the afternoon.
Li Qin and Wang Xiao arrived at Li Hong Shan's house. His house was constantly being watched by the police. These days, Li Hong Shan had been very obedient and had not gone out at all.
"Knock knock …" Li Qin knocked on the door.
"Creak …" The door opened. Li Dong Mei stood at the door with a surprised look on her face. "Officer … Officer Li, why are you here?"
"Where's your father? I want to see him."
"My dad is in the house. Come in with me." Li Dong Mei entered the house. As if to remind her father, she shouted, "Dad, Officer Li is here to see you."
A moment later, Li Hong Shan slowly walked out of the bedroom. Seeing Li Qin and Wang Xiao standing in the living room, he said politely, "Officer Li, and this comrade, please take a seat."
"Dong Mei, pour a cup of tea for the two officers."
"Officer Li, please take a seat first. I'll go boil some water," Li Dong Mei said before entering the kitchen.
Li Qin sat on the sofa opposite Li Hong Shan and sized him up. She smiled and said, "Sir, you look much better than before."
"Sigh, what else can I do? I live one day at a time."
Li Qin said, "Don't say that. The medical conditions are better now. There are many people who can live for more than a hundred years. You're still young."
Li Hong Shan was also a suspect. Logically speaking, Li Qin did not have to be so polite to him. However, Li Hong Shan was different from ordinary criminals. Firstly, he was old, and secondly, he was sick.
This kind of situation was very difficult for the police to handle. If they were too strict, Li Qin would also have to bear the responsibility if something happened to him.
"What's the point of living so old? It's annoying." Li Hong Shan shook his head and changed the topic. "Officer Li, why are you here today?"
"I'm here today to tell you a piece of good news. Your son, Li Dong Zhi's condition has stabilized and he has actively cooperated with the police investigation. He has already fought for a chance to reduce his sentence. "
Li Hong Shan was stunned for a moment before revealing a look of joy. "Really?"
"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you about something like this?"
"Where's Dong Zhi? I want to see him."
"He's still recuperating in the hospital. It's not convenient for him to see you now."
"Officer Li, thank you for telling me this good news. Hearing that he's fine, I feel at ease."
Wang Xiao said seriously, "Li Hong Shan, we came here today for two reasons. One is to tell you about Li Hong Shan's situation. The other is that we hope that you can take the initiative to confess your crime and fight for a reduction in your sentence."
Wang Xiao's role was to play the bad cop. There were some things that Li Qin couldn't say, so he would say them.
Li Qin also advised, "That's right, Uncle. Li Dong Zhi has already confessed, so you don't have to worry anymore. You can also tell the police about your situation. I'll definitely fight for a chance to reduce your sentence. "
Li Hong Shan didn't speak immediately. He looked at Wang Xiao and then at Li Qin, a conflicted expression on his face.
Li Dong Mei walked out and said in support, "Dad, since my brother has confessed, then you should tell him too. Officer Li is here, so what's there to hesitate about?"
Li Dong Mei put down two cups of water and said politely, "Officer Li, and this comrade, please have some tea."
"Thank you." Li Qin picked up the teacup and took a small sip. "Uncle Li, if there's anything else you're hesitating about, you can tell me."
"Officer Li, tell me the truth. Did Dong Zhi really confess?" Li Hong Shan had lived for most of his life and had experienced many things. He wasn't a person who could be easily fooled.
He didn't completely believe Li Qin's words. He was worried that Li Qin was lying to him and that his son hadn't confessed yet. If he confessed first, it would be equivalent to betraying his son, and it might even ruin his son's chance to reduce his sentence.
Li Qin saw through his thoughts and said, "Uncle, I've already sworn on my badge that I didn't lie just now."
Li Hong Shan still didn't really believe this oath and asked, "What did Li Dong Zhi tell you? Can you mention it to me? "
Li Qin thought about it. If she didn't say anything, Li Hong Shan might not completely believe her and he wouldn't be willing to cooperate with the police.
In the end, Li Qin felt that it was okay to reveal some information.
"I wasn't the one who took Li Dong Zhi's statement, but I heard some things. Li Dong Zhi admitted to contacting someone outside the prison through you. The purpose was to help him and Zhu Weichao escape from prison."
"What's the name of the person outside the prison that you mentioned?"
"Shi Da."
"What else did he say?"
"Li Dong Zhi didn't want to confess at first. Later, after being persuaded by the police, he told us the situation. Shi Da promised that if Li Dong Zhi didn't succeed in his escape, he wouldn't betray him. At the same time, as compensation, he will give you 300,000 yuan for your retirement. "
"Li Dong Zhi wanted to show his filial piety, so he wasn't willing to confess at first. Later, we told him that what you really wanted wasn't money, but a chance for him to reduce his sentence."
"Li Dong Zhi was touched when he heard this. He also thought that you might not care about the 300,000 yuan for your retirement, so he agreed to cooperate with the police. So he agreed to cooperate with the police, and the police will also provide some policies to reduce his sentence. "
"Thank you, thank you." When he heard Li Qin say 300,000 yuan for his retirement, Li Hong Shan completely believed her because he hadn't told anyone except his son.
"Uncle Li, do you believe me now? I didn't lie to you."
"I believe you. I'm willing to cooperate with the police. I'm really sorry for giving you so much trouble."
"It's okay. It's not too late for you to confess now."
"Confess? I'll tell you everything …" At this point, Li Hong Shan was stunned and said awkwardly, "Officer Li, I don't know where to start. Why don't you ask?"
"How do you and Shi Da usually contact each other?"
Li Hong Shan carefully recalled and said, "The two of us met once. It was a long time ago, probably last year. Later, he gave me a SIM card and told me to use it to contact him in the future. "
"What's the number of the SIM card?"
"I don't know. I only use the SIM card when I contact Shi Da. Also, I don't know much about it, so I haven't seen the number of the phone."
Li Qin asked, "Where's the SIM card?"
Li Hong Shan spread his hands. "It's gone. I've already dealt with it."
"How did you deal with it?"
"I broke the card and flushed it in the toilet."
Li Qin frowned. "Where did you meet Shi Da?"
"It was at the Red Star Square. He asked me to wear a white hat. We met and chatted for a while before he gave me a SIM card and left."
"If you see Shi Da now, would you still recognize him?"
Li Hong Shan said without hesitation, "I can. I'm not stupid at all."
Li Qin made a mark on the book. "If you were asked to testify against Shi Da, would you be willing?"
"I'd be willing. I know what I did was wrong. I'm willing to help the police to make up for my previous mistakes."
Li Qin took a deep breath and thought to herself, 'I've finally convinced Li Hong Shan to cooperate with me. I didn't come in vain this time.'
Li Hong Shan looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated. After a while, he gritted his teeth. "Officer Li, I want to ask you for a favor."
"Go ahead."
Li Hong Shan's eyes flashed. "I want to see my son, even if it's just once."
Li Qin sighed and looked troubled. "I'm afraid this won't be easy. Firstly, Li Dongzhi is still recuperating in the hospital. Secondly, Li Dongzhi has a record of escaping from prison, and you've helped him pass the message. "
"So, it won't be easy to visit Li Dongzhi in the short term, especially since you're already on the blacklist. It's almost impossible to let you visit Li Dongzhi again. After all, there will be a second time. No one can guarantee that you won't help him escape from prison a second time."
Li Hong Shan sighed. "Officer Li, I know you're in a difficult position, but I still want to ask you to think of a way. After this incident, I can swear to God that I will never help him escape from prison again."
Li Qin said earnestly, "Uncle Li, the police have their own rules. I hope you can understand."
Li Hong Shan revealed a bitter expression and sighed. "I understand, but I still can't accept it. I just want to see him and see him one last time. That way, even if I die, I won't have any regrets. "
"I also want to help you, but I can't lie to you. The possibility of the prison agreeing to your visit is very small. I'm guessing that you've already been blacklisted."
Li Hong Shan sighed. He seemed to have aged a few years in an instant.
Li Dongmei, who was standing next to him, said, "Officer Li, since my dad can't visit him, can I visit him and pass on my brother's situation to him? That way, he can be at ease and not worry about me every day."
Li Qin thought about it. That was a good idea, but given Li Dongzhi's criminal record and current situation, it wouldn't be easy for Li Dongmei to visit him …
