Propelled headlong into the relentless currents of history, Ji Yu finds himself transplanted to the tumultuous prelude to WWII.
Once an ordinary civil servant in his modern existence, Ji Yu i...
"Two years ago, when you were the deputy regimental commander, you colluded with several logistics officers to embezzle and resell military supplies, illegally profiting a large sum of money."
Furthermore, you extorted local gentry by garrisoning troops and forcibly seized their homes to keep mistresses.
A year ago, your embezzlement of military funds was discovered by the military law department. You bribed them with a large sum of money to escape punishment. After the incident, the officer who exposed you died of a sudden illness.
We didn't wrong you with these accusations, did we? Do you really think everyone else is blind? We're only letting it go because someone protected you. Believe me, I'll interrogate these witnesses right now and get to the bottom of this. It'll be enough to send you to the execution ground!"
Looking at the materials in his hand and hearing Ning Zhiheng's words, Bao Sheng's heart pounded in his chest. He realized that these things couldn't be hidden from the eyes of the Military Intelligence Investigation Department. His legs went weak, and he slumped back into his seat, still trying to argue, "These are all old cases, and my military law department has already investigated them. I am innocent. You are framing me!"
Bao Sheng's momentum had plummeted. If the Military Intelligence Investigation Department really pursued the matter to the end, it would be a huge problem. Even if he had powerful backers, he would probably suffer greatly.
"And this too!" Ning Zhiheng casually tossed over another document.
Bao Sheng was startled again. Wasn't that enough? There was more? He took the materials and looked at them carefully. He was immediately terrified. It was the interrogation record of Gu Wenshi, the operations staff officer of the Third Regiment. This man had been informed that he was a genuine Japanese spy, but in his confession, he claimed that he was his subordinate who had been recruited. If the previous materials were true, this interrogation record was definitely fake. It was a complete and utter frame-up.
If someone embezzles in the military, they will naturally have to bribe their superiors and powerful backers, and they can also use their connections to plead for leniency and protection. However, if they are involved in a case involving Japanese spies, no one will dare to vouch for them, and they will definitely face certain death!
"You're framing me! Framing me!" Bao Sheng was so frightened that he couldn't even hold the documents. He knew that if he were forcibly taken to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department now, he would have no hope of getting out.
Just as Ning Zhiheng said, once they are arrested and brought to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, they will be subjected to severe torture and will definitely confess without a doubt. The case will then be confirmed, and there will be no chance of them turning the tables!
“Bao Sheng, do you still want me to release your cousin? I think you can barely protect yourself, yet you dare to bargain with me. You overestimate yourself!” Ning Zhiheng stepped forward, staring intently into Bao Sheng’s eyes, and said coldly.
Under Ning Zhiheng's intense gaze, Bao Sheng kept avoiding eye contact. Finally, he could only say in a low voice, "Team Leader Ning, it's all a misunderstanding between us. How about this, as long as you're willing to forgive and forget, I'll take the 10% share as my tribute."
At this moment, Bao Sheng no longer cared about whether his cousin could be released. If Ning Zhiheng really wanted to get rid of him, he would definitely be doomed. He kept begging for mercy, fearing that Ning Zhiheng would turn on him on the spot and arrest him, so that he would not even have the chance to ask his backer for help!
Seeing Bao Sheng's attitude, Ning Zhiheng smiled contemptuously. He had seen this kind of face many times before, and in the end, every one of them had to bow down to him.
He said coldly, "I don't need that little bit of money. Rules are rules. You keep your 10% share. Release the impounded vehicles immediately. Don't cause any more trouble in the future. I'll let you off this time, but if there's a next time, I'll take action without hesitation!"
"Yes, yes, Team Leader Ning is very generous, I will definitely follow the rules!" Bao Sheng felt relieved when he heard that Ning Zhiheng was willing to let him go. Only then did he realize that he was soaked in sweat.
"roll!"
When Bao Sheng left the private room in a daze, his two guards were surprised to find that the usually imposing and arrogant commander could not even stand steadily. They quickly stepped forward to help Bao Sheng up.
"Hurry, get out of here!" Bao Sheng, pale-faced, quickly whispered the order.
The two guards didn't dare to say anything more, and helped their commander leave quickly. Watching their hurried departure, Liu Datong smiled contemptuously. This outcome was naturally within his expectations!
