Jiang Hong screamed, "I didn't harm him. He asked for it!"
The smile on Li Rui's face froze. "What did you say?"
Jiang Hong was stunned for a moment and quickly realized that she had said something wrong. She said somewhat embarrassedly, "Okay, I plead guilty. I am the mastermind. You can arrest me. My brother was just following my orders. Please try to reduce his sentence."
Her change was so big that Li Rui was stunned.
Jiang Hong looked at him calmly and sadly. She repeated, "I plead guilty. Did you hear me?"
Li Rui came back to his senses and said, "No … What did you just say? Did Jiang Wei bring this upon himself? What do you mean? "
Jiang Hong turned her face away and said, "Nothing. Don't talk nonsense. Let the task force arrest me. I'm the mastermind. I asked Jiang Wei to find someone to kill the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. I want to avenge my family. If I kill the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, no one in the city will target us. We will be treated leniently. That's my motive."
Li Rui stared at her in confusion and said, "That's not right! Why didn't you plead guilty just now? Why did you plead guilty immediately after I said that you harmed your brother? And what did you mean when you said that Jiang Wei asked for it? "
Jiang Hong's face darkened and she scolded, "Are you f * cking annoying? Oh, I didn't plead guilty. You asked me to plead guilty. Now that I plead guilty, you f * cking say something else. Are you f * cking a man? You're so wishy-washy like a woman. "
Li Rui wasn't angry. He stood up and said, "You don't want to talk, right? It's okay. I can go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau and ask Jiang Wei. I believe that he will be very excited when he hears that you plead guilty. Maybe he will tell me what I want to know."
Jiang Hong sneered, "What can he tell you? But if you really go to him, help me pass a message. Tell him not to be stupid. I've already plead guilty. He shouldn't take the blame. He should reform himself for a few years and live a stable life after he gets out. Maybe I'll have to rely on him in the future. "
When Li Rui heard her tone, he knew that she was not going to say anything, so he walked out of the room.
Walking out of the detention center, Li Rui shook hands with the deputy director and said goodbye. He then got into the car with the police officer who was temporarily acting as his driver and drove to the city police station.
Li Rui called Zhou Yuansong and said, "Chief Zhou, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
Zhou Yuansong laughed inwardly and said, "Good news."
Li Rui said, "The good news is that Jiang Hong has pleaded guilty. The bad news is that the case is in turmoil again. It seems that there is more to it. I have to go to the Municipal Bureau to talk to Jiang Wei."
Zhou Yuansong was puzzled and asked, "What's happening now?"
Li Rui said, "When Jiang Hong was scolding me, she unintentionally said, 'Jiang Wei asked for it.' This made me suspect that Jiang Wei was the real mastermind."
Zhou Yuansong sucked in a breath of cold air and said, "It can't be? It's just an ordinary murder case. How could it be so complicated? "
Li Rui said, "No matter what, I have to meet Jiang Wei first. Maybe he can reveal something."
After the car entered the city, Li Rui saw a supermarket not far away and said to the driver, "Stop by the supermarket in front. I'll buy a bottle of wine."
The police officer was puzzled and asked with a smile, "Chief Li, why are you drinking so late?"
Li Rui smiled and said, "I'm not the one drinking. I'm buying it for Jiang Wei. This person seems to like drinking and after drinking, he can't control his mouth. I want to see if he will tell the truth when he's drunk. "
The police officer laughed and said, "It's worth a try."
After the car stopped by the roadside, Li Rui got out of the car and walked into the supermarket. He took a bottle of high-quality Maotai and when he was about to pay the bill, he suddenly thought of something and went back to buy half a catty of peanuts, a few country bumpkin eggs, four sausages, and a small bucket of dry fried chili before paying the bill.
When he returned to the car, the police officer saw that Li Rui had bought a bag full of food and said with a smile, "Oh, Chief Li, you're treating Jiang Wei to a big meal."
Li Rui nodded and said, "He probably can't drink alone, so I'll drink with him. That's why I bought some food to go with the wine, hehe."
The police officer said with a smile, "Only you would dare to do this. We don't even dare to think about it. It's a serious violation of discipline, hehe."
After arriving at the Municipal Bureau, the police officer brought Li Rui to the small building where Jiang Wei was detained. At the same time, he called the leader of the task force and reported to them about Li Rui's investigation.
Li Rui was the first secretary of the Municipal Party Committee and had the permission of the Bureau Chief. It could be said that he had a lot of privileges. The leader of the task force naturally wouldn't refuse him to meet Jiang Wei and even drink with him. He asked the police officer to accompany Li Rui and satisfy all of his requests.
As he walked towards the backyard, Li Rui smiled bitterly. He had become a police officer on the outside. He had to change locations three times in one night and meet three people. The real police officers probably didn't have it as hard as he did. However, in order to get the truth, it was worth it.
When he saw Jiang Wei, Li Rui was slightly shocked. In his heart, Jiang Wei should be a fat and vulgar guy as a real estate developer. But who knew that Jiang Wei was born tall and handsome? Although he was already in his forties, he was still handsome. At first glance, he looked similar to the mainland's male star, Hu Bing. His appearance didn't resemble Jiang Hong, but it was understandable. After all, the two of them were cousins and not biological siblings.
Although there was a certain blood relationship between cousins, in the eyes of the ancient people, they were basically the same as outsiders. So in ancient times, cousins could also get married. For example, the great poet of the Southern Song Dynasty, Lu You, once married his cousin, Tang Wan. Actually, until modern times, cousins could also get married and no one would say that it was messing up relationships.
Jiang Wei had never seen Li Rui before and didn't know him. When he saw him, he was slightly startled. But he was quickly pushed into the interrogation chair by the police.
After the police left, Li Rui took out the Maotai wine and food and placed them on the small table. He said to Jiang Wei, "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Li Rui. I was one of the three people who were almost killed by the driver you ordered."
Jiang Wei was shocked and shouted, "You are Li Rui?!"
Li Rui nodded and said, "That's right. I was the one who personally sent your brother-in-law to prison. Of course, you can also think that I was the one who sent your sister and nephew to prison."
Jiang Wei was furious. He was so angry that his face turned green. He glared at him hatefully.
Li Rui sneered and said, "What a joke! You almost killed me. No matter what, you should be able to vent your anger. Why do you still hate me so much? Do you really want to kill me before you are satisfied? "
Jiang Wei's face darkened and said, "What are you doing here?"
Li Rui pointed at the food on the table and said, "I'm just here to chat. Let's drink and chat, okay?"
Jiang Wei sneered and said, "Are you crazy?! You want to drink with me for no reason? Do you know me and you want to drink with me? Did you forget to take your medicine today? "
Li Rui ignored his mockery and said indifferently, "I just came from your sister. She already confessed."
Jiang Wei's body trembled. His face was filled with shock and disbelief. It was as if he had heard some bad news.
Li Rui opened the bottle cap of Maotai and took out two paper cups that he had bought. He poured half a cup each and took a sip. "Come, let's drink together. It seems like we're fated to meet."
Jiang Wei angrily said, "What the f * ck are you talking about? This case was clearly done by me. Why would my sister admit to anything? "
Li Rui said, "Drink first. I will tell you after you drink. Your sister asked me to tell you something."
"What is it?" Jiang Wei cried out involuntarily.
Li Rui pointed at the wine cup and looked at him expectantly.
Jiang Wei had no choice but to take the paper cup and drink half of it in one gulp.
Li Rui pushed the peanuts, country bumpkins, and fried chili in front of him and said, "Eat as much as you want. It will be difficult for you to eat these in the future."
Jiang Wei heard this and his face turned ugly. He seemed to understand that Li Rui was not lying and continued to eat. Of course, he had already eaten dinner. However, there was still wine and food, so he could eat more.
After half a bottle of wine, Li Rui told Jiang Wei about the special task force's doubts about the case.
Jiang Wei sneered and said, "What do you mean I have no motive? I f * cking killed the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee so that my sister can be released. That is my motive. Why don't the special task force idiots believe me? I was the one who did this case. Don't f * cking doubt me. "
Li Rui nodded. He thought to himself that this guy was Jiang Hong's family. He would feel uncomfortable if he did not bring his mother into the conversation. He said, "Let's have another toast. After that, I will tell you what your sister said."
Jiang Wei agreed and took the bottle of wine and filled his and Li Rui's glasses. The two of them clinked their paper cups and drank it in big gulps.
Jiang Wei was a person who drank until his face turned red from the first glass. After a few glasses, his face turned even redder. However, Li Rui did not think that he was drunk. Blushing after drinking and being drunk were two different concepts. However, he had already drunk half a bottle of wine. Even if he was not drunk, the alcohol had already taken effect. His cerebral cortex was highly stimulated, and his vigilance should have been lowered by more than half. He could probably say many things that he could not say at this time.
"The time has come!"
Li Rui pulled himself together and told Jiang Hong's words to Jiang Wei.
After Jiang Wei heard it, he was very emotional. He could not control himself and his eyes were wet. He looked at the wine glass and did not say a word.
Li Rui deliberately provoked him. "Before I came, I told your sister that I would come to talk to you. Maybe I can find out the truth. Your sister did not believe me and said that you would not say anything to me. But now that your sister has confessed, she will be punished for several crimes. Even if she is not sentenced to death, she should be sentenced to more than ten years in prison. Don't you feel bad for her? I think you will say something, right? "
Jiang Wei looked up at him and his eyes flashed coldly. Li Rui stared at him and hoped that he would say something.
