"Alright. Thank you, Xiaowan. " Leng Hongyan was still polite. After all, he was someone close to Guo Baoxin. She had to be polite to him.
After both parties hung up, Leng Hongyan sent another message to Yao Haidong. "I've arrived in Jiangnan Province and am heading to Guo Baoxin's Secretariat. He's treating me to lunch. Find out what happened with the Commission for Discipline Inspection. If you have time, come to the provincial capital for lunch."
Yao Haidong received Leng Hongyan's message. But this was Governor Li Gaocheng's meeting, and Secretary Wu Haotian was busy flattering Li Gaocheng. Other than checking the details of the meeting, he also had to arrange lunch, the hotel for the break, etc. He really did not have time.
Yao Haidong pretended to go to the washroom and called Leng Hongyan. The moment the call went through, Yao Haidong said. "Minister, I'm really sorry. They are really ruthless. They purposely arrested Xiao Liu on this day. It's Governor Li Gaocheng's meeting in Jingjiang. So, I really can't get away. Right now, I'm talking to you in the washroom. I need to go to the hotel to check on the lunch and the hotel room. If anything goes wrong, Secretary Wu Haotian will make a big fuss out of it. So, Minister, I'm really sorry. I can only let Xiao Liu suffer for another day. Tonight, I will personally go to Secretary Zhou's house to find out the reason. "
Yao Haidong wanted to continue promising, but he heard footsteps outside. He quickly lowered his voice and said. "Minister, someone is here. I'll hang up first. " Before Leng Hongyan could speak, he quickly hung up and pretended to have just finished defecating. He pulled up his pants and came out of the washroom. When he came out, he bumped into Yu Zaiqing. Yu Zaiqing smiled and said. "I've been looking for the Secretary-General. So, he's hiding in the washroom. The Secretary has instructed us not to make any mistakes in any of the procedures. So, Secretary-General, let's go to the hotel to check on the procedures. "
"Alright." Yao Haidong smiled, went to wash his hands, and followed Yu Zaiqing out, but he had a very bad feeling, Yu Zaiqing seemed to be monitoring his every move.
Leng Hongyan was anxious, but there was nothing she could do now. She didn't know what was going on. How much evidence did this idiot have in their hands? Could he handle it in the Commission for Discipline Inspection? Leng Hongyan had heard that once a person entered the Commission for Discipline Inspection, he would collapse. He would say everything he should and shouldn't say. The Commission for Discipline Inspection had many ways to force people to confess. Many cases would be completed by the Commission for the Commission for Discipline., and by the Commission for Discipline Inspection. by., the Commission for Discipline.
Leng Hongyan called Liu Lihai's phone, but it was turned off. Obviously, it was confiscated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Of course, how many people were allowed to take their phones when they went in? The more it was like this, the more Leng Hongyan worried that this fool wouldn't be able to handle the storm. What if he confessed to their plan, or if he was forced to confess to his relationship with her? Would his marriage with Old Master Ji still go ahead? Would Secretary Guo Baoxin still be able to help them?
Leng Hongyan was not worried about accepting the gift money. This matter could be easily investigated. However, she was worried that they would set up a trap to interrogate her and herself about their affair. As soon as they left, this kind of trick to settle accounts after the autumn has always been widely used.
Leng Hongyan's worry was right. At this time, Liu Chunhua and the two thin men entered the interrogation room again. After half an hour of fighting with Liu Lihai's denial and silence, Liu Chunhua gave up on asking about the gift. She suddenly asked Liu Lihai, "Everyone knows about your relationship with Minister Leng Hongyan. Do you want us to play the flirtatious messages between you and Minister Leng?"
As soon as Liu Chunhua's words fell, Liu Lihai's heart sank. His brain quickly turned. She said it was about the gift. Why did Liu Chunhua go out for half an hour and talk about the relationship between a man and a woman? The flirtatious messages between him and Leng Hongyan were things that happened a long time ago. What was the point of bringing it up now? Moreover, both he and Leng Hongyan were single. This was not a crime at all.
But why did he have to dig up this debt now? What were they trying to do? Liu Lihai analyzed the situation intensely in his heart.
Liu Chunhua saw that Liu Lihai did not speak and thought that she had hit the nail on the head. She continued, "As for the gift, the evidence is conclusive. Don't even think about denying it. Now, explain the problem between you and Comrade Leng Hongyan. "
Liu Lihai glanced at Liu Chunhua and said coldly, "Can you not play this kind of trick?"
"Liu Lihai," Liu Chunhua suddenly called out his full name, "I don't believe that you can't open your mouth."
"Are you trying to extort a confession? However, Director Liu, you have to think this through. I am a reporter. I will record down every single one of your tricks in writing and spread it far and wide. Unless you kill me now, don't even think about getting a single word out of me. Your trap is full of loopholes. Don't think that the evidence in your hands is evidence. Sometimes evidence is not the truth, and sometimes the truth is without evidence. This was said by Secretary Gong Daojin, who is also my godfather. So, I am going to give it to you now. Since we used to be friends, don't say that I didn't warn you. Times have always changed in the officialdom. No matter what you do, please show some mercy. "Liu Lihai had really calmed down now. He was no longer afraid or worried about anything. Moreover, he knew very well that if they used the matter between him and Leng Hongyan as a trap, they would definitely shoot themselves in the foot.
This time, it was Liu Chunhua who was stunned. He did not expect Liu Lihai to be so young. What he said was very reasonable. Based on their current evidence, although it was still sufficient, he was very clear that there was something fishy about this matter. He was just following the orders of Secretary Tian, the head of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. He did not even know the specific situation.
"Mayor Liu, please understand us. We are also following orders from our superiors. If you have any questions, just tell us. You are really putting us in a difficult position. You are right, we are still friends, right? At least we have eaten a few times before, and our relationship is quite close. Now, I can't bear to hurt you. After all, you are still so young, and there is still a long way to go. If you tell us the problem, we can all stop here. I will also help you in front of Secretary Tian to ask for leniency. "Liu Chunhua saw that the hard way was not working, so he began to face Liu Lihai with softness and weakness.
Liu Lihai no longer paid attention to Liu Chunhua. In the end, Liu Chunhua was still thinking about how to get useful information from him. If this thing was what Secretary Wu Haotian wanted, then the real mastermind behind this matter was Secretary Wu Haotian. Shi Zhilin was not enough for Secretary Tian to come forward and interrogate him so quickly. They were trying to use him as a breakthrough to catch Yao Haidong and Leng Hongyan behind the scenes. It seemed that Secretary Wu Haotian was suspicious of them. If this was the case, it was futile for Liu Lihai to say any more nonsense, so he simply stopped talking.
Liu Chunhua saw that Liu Lihai did not speak, so he signaled the two skinny men to start the torture, and he left the interrogation room.
Liu Lihai was restrained. The interrogation room was very dark, and they shone an extra large light on Liu Lihai. No one asked him anything, nor did they beat him. But as soon as Liu Lihai closed his eyes, they shouted. This method was really cruel. It was more painful than being beaten by Liu Lihai. Liu Lihai finally understood why so many people in this place could not resist and all confessed. Liu Lihai guessed that this kind of torture was probably the most shallow kind. If it continued, there would be more torture on the ground. When he thought of this, his body shivered.
Liu Chunhua noticed this movement from the surveillance camera. He walked into the interrogation room and pretended to be friendly to Liu Lihai. "Magistrate Liu, are you tired? Do you want a glass of water? "
Liu Lihai could not see Liu Chunhua clearly, but he guessed that Liu Chunhua was monitoring his behavior. He must have noticed it when he shivered unconsciously. It seemed that he could not have any weakness in his behavior. These people were really careful with their tricks.
Liu Lihai ignored Liu Chunhua. He firmly believed that no matter what they asked or said, from now on, as long as he complied with one thing and did not speak, it would be the biggest victory. He knew that Leng Hongyan and Yao Haidong would find a way to save him. So, no matter what, he must grit his teeth and not speak. At this time, the more he spoke, the more likely he would make a mistake.
Facing Liu Lihai's refusal to speak, Liu Chunhua was anxious. The higher-ups had ordered that there should be no obvious wounds, so he could not use torture on Liu Lihai. Other than destroying Liu Lihai's will, he had no other way.
Liu Chunhua left the interrogation room again, and the interrogation continued to be in an impasse.
Leng Hongyan had now been taken into a restaurant by Xiao Wan. This was probably the place where Secretary Guo Baoxin had a private dinner. When Xiao Wan came in, the female owner warmly led Xiao Wan to the number one private room. Because Leng Hongyan was preoccupied, she was not in the mood to pay attention to the female owner and Xiao Wan. She kept looking at her watch. Xiao Wan saw Leng Hongyan's appearance, and said to Leng Hongyan, "Lady Ji, the big boss really can't leave today, because he has a very important investment project to discuss. He still has to make a toast at lunch before he comes here. So, don't worry and wait for a while. "
"Ah, it's like this. Xiao Wan, can you arrange a car to send me to Jingjiang first? I'll go to Jingjiang first. " Leng Hongyan did not expect the situation to be like this. If Guo Baoxin wanted to have a stable foothold in Jiangnan, the economic indicators had to be improved. This was the first step, so the investment project was also a big deal. She could not affect Secretary Guo Baoxin's big plan. This, Leng Hongyan understood.
"Well …" Xiao Wan was obviously in a dilemma.
