Lu Tao hesitated for a moment and said helplessly, "Secretary Xie, according to my original intention, I wanted Xiao Qingshan, this corrupt official, to be severely punished by the law. But considering the reputation of our local tax system, and considering that there may be other colleagues in the bureau who will be implicated by him, I think it's better to ask you to give him a way out and transfer his case to the local tax system."
Xie Benzhu nodded and said, "From what the informant said and your description, this Xiao Qingshan's character is vile and insatiable. He's a typical 'plucking feathers from wild geese' type of corruption.
Losers were supposed to be severely punished. But since you're speaking up for him, I'll loosen my mouth and hand over his case to the local tax bureau to handle. But when we hand over the case, we'll make a clear request to your disciplinary department. Xiao Qingshan can choose not to hand over the case, but he must be expelled from the party and fired from public office. He must also be reported to the disciplinary committee in a timely manner. "
When Lu Tao heard that the County Commission for Discipline Inspection recommended that Xiao Qingshan be punished equally, he felt a little better. After thanking Xie Benzhu, he was about to hang up the phone, but he heard him say, "Brother, don't hang up the phone first. I still have two things to report to you. It's about Li Weijun."
It turned out that after Lu Tao reported to Zhou Yihong that Li Weijun kept a mistress, Zhou Yihong immediately arranged for the disciplinary committee to form a secret investigation team to investigate Li Weijun's illegal activities. The leader of this secret investigation team was the vice secretary of the disciplinary committee, Wang Xiong, and the vice leader was Xie Benzhu.
When Lu Tao heard that Xie Benzhu had two things to report to him about Li Weijun, he hurriedly asked, "Secretary Xie, what's the situation? Has there been any progress in the secret investigation of Li Weijun? "
"No, we've run into some difficulties with the investigation. A week ago, the investigation team went to the villa where Li Weijun's mistress, Su Xiaohong, lived. However, they found that the villa was already empty. There was even a 'For Sale' sign on the door of the villa. After asking the property management staff, they found out that Su Xiaohong and her two sons had already moved out a few days ago.
"After that, the members of the investigation team rushed to the Taolin County Public Security Bureau. Under the arrangements of Bureau Chief Zhou Youliang, they secretly interrogated Su Xiaohong's fake husband, Wu Liangmin. They wanted him to reveal the truth about taking the blame for Li Weijun. Unexpectedly, Wu Liangmin insisted that Su Xiaohong was his wife, and his two sons were also his flesh and blood. There was no problem of taking the blame for others. In the end, he scolded the investigators and threatened to sue them in court for slandering his wife. "
At this point, Xie Benzhu sighed and said helplessly, "Brother, it seems that we were a little too late. Li Weijun sensed the danger and moved Su Xiaohong and her son first. Also, I'm guessing that when Wu Liangmin was in the detention center, Li Weijun's gang probably tried to send him a message, asking him to firmly deny the fact that he took the blame for Li Weijun. "
Lu Tao said with a bit of self-blame, "Secretary Xie, I have to take a lot of responsibility for this matter being leaked. If I hadn't acted on my own initiative and given those photos to Du Xiaoyu, Liu Hong and Li Weijun wouldn't have sensed our intentions and wouldn't have moved Su Xiaohong and her son away … By the way, can the investigation team ask the Public Security Bureau to help find Su Xiaohong and her son? Not long after they left Songshan, there are three of them. They're a big target. Whether it's by car or by plane, there will be traces left behind. As long as the Public Security Bureau is willing to help, we should be able to find their final destination. "
Xie Benzhu smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, the investigation team has already thought of this method. We did ask the Public Security Bureau to help with the investigation. However, the result of the investigation is that Su Xiaohong and her son have already left the country. Their destination is Canada. After further investigation, we found that Su Xiaohong and her two sons had obtained a green card in Canada a year ago through investment and immigration. Because we don't have any evidence to prove that Su Xiaohong has committed any crimes and she's currently abroad, we can't do anything to her. It's completely impossible to find her to prove Li Weijun's violations of the law. "
Lu Tao let out a disappointed "Oh" and asked a bit unwillingly, "Then the only breakthrough now is Wu Liangmin. Does the investigation team have any way to pry open his mouth?"
Xie Benzhu replied, "This Wu Liangmin is very cunning. I think he either received a huge benefit from Li Weijun or was threatened by something. In any case, he's like a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water. Not only did he not admit the fact that he took the blame for Li Weijun, but he also threatened and abused the investigation team. In addition, I don't know who hired a lawyer for him, but he's currently applying for a bail pending trial on the grounds that he's disabled. It's estimated that in a few days, he'll be released from the detention center. At that time, it'll be even more difficult to find him for evidence. "
Lu Tao said a bit gloomily, "Now it seems that it's very difficult to find a breakthrough from Li Weijun. Now there's only one way. We must quickly carry out a tax inspection on the enterprises under Liu Hong's name and dig out evidence of those corrupt officials investing in these enterprises. Then we can follow the vine to find out more about their violations of the law. "
Xie Benzhu nodded and asked, "Brother, if you lead a team to investigate the enterprises under Liu Hong's name, are you sure you can dig out some evidence?"
Lu Tao hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not sure. However, before we enter the enterprises to carry out a tax inspection, I think we can let the economic investigation team of the County Public Security Bureau come forward and investigate the financial director of O 'Neal Hotel. This financial director has two sets of accounts in his hands. One of them is the real account that records the shareholders' dividends. As long as we force him to hand over the real account, we can find evidence of some officials investing in the hotel and receiving dividends. "
Xie Benzhu said happily, "Brother, your idea is good. It can be a breakthrough for us. How about this, I'll call comrade Zhou Youliang right now and ask him to arrange for the economic investigation team to interrogate the financial director. You can participate in the entire interrogation process and strive to get solid and reliable evidence. "
The next morning, according to the arrangement of Xie Benzhu and Zhou Youliang, the economic investigation team of the Taolin County Public Security Bureau summoned the financial director of O 'Neal Hotel and began to interrogate him. As the representative of the Local Taxation Bureau, Lu Tao participated in the entire interrogation process.
