On the inspection team side, He Rongxuan was interrogated all night.
Not getting the information they wanted, Tian Fengshan and Xu Wei acted as if they would not stop until they achieved their goal.
From yesterday till now, He Rongxuan has not drunk a drop of water or eaten a grain of rice, and the corners of his mouth have begun to crack.
But even so, Tian Fengshan had no intention of letting him go, and made it clear that he wanted to make things difficult for He Rongxuan.
"He Rongxuan, I advise you to tell the truth and cooperate with our investigation. This way you will suffer less."
He Rongxuan looked at Tian Fengshan with a sly smile and sneered.
"Deputy Director Tian, may I ask why I did not cooperate with your investigation? I know what happened and I have explained it clearly.
As for those unfounded things you asked about, if they don’t exist, then they don’t exist. You want to force me to admit it, but that’s impossible!”
"What do you mean I'm forcing you? I don't believe that I can't find any evidence against you, He Rongxuan. If you fall into my hands, don't even think about walking out unscathed!"
"Deputy Director Tian, you are so arrogant. I want to see what you can do to me. I am here to cooperate with your investigation, not to be a prisoner under your interrogation."
"You think you are any different from the prisoners now? You come in here and want to walk out clean. You must be dreaming!"
"Oh!"
He Rongxuan sneered and did not continue to argue with Tian Fengshan. What he needed to do was to conserve his energy and wait for the opportunity.
Believe that you won't be trapped here for too long.
But he didn't expect that He Rongxuan ignored Tian Fengshan's shamelessness and that this man actually wanted to torture him. Looking at the torture instruments so close at hand, He Rongxuan narrowed his eyes.
One day I will get it all back with interest, but to force a confession out of me is sheer wishful thinking.
"He Rongxuan, as long as you admit that you collaborated with the enemy and betrayed your comrades in exchange for a chance to escape, I can release you immediately. Otherwise..."
The red-hot iron hook slowly approached He Rongxuan. The temperature on it was really scary, but even so, facing Tian Fengshan's threats and temptations, He Rongxuan remained unmoved.
What kind of crime is treason and collusion? This person not only wants to deal with He Rongxuan, but also wants to catch the entire He family in one fell swoop.
Gritting my teeth, I will never compromise even if it causes me great pain.
The red iron hook was getting closer and closer to He Rongxuan, and the temperature in front of his eyes was getting higher and higher. It seemed that the iron hook was less than two centimeters away from him.
At this moment, the door of the interrogation room was pushed open from the outside with a bang.
Tian Fengshan was startled and subconsciously took a step back, hiding the hook behind himself.
"Tong Di, what are you doing here? The director has already said that I am responsible for this matter!"
"Tian Fengshan, don't think I don't know what you did. The Inspection Department is responsible for investigating and verifying whether military officers have violated military discipline, but it does not mean that you can abuse lynching!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who is lynching?"
"Do you really think I'm blind? You brought He Rongxuan here since I got off work yesterday, and it's been more than ten hours now. Why does it take so long for you to interrogate him?
Even though He Rongxuan is currently under investigation, he still has a military service and is not a prisoner in prison."
"Tong Di, I don't need you to tell me how to act. You and I are deputy directors, and you have no power to discipline me. Please leave now and don't disturb our work!"
"You sound very reasonable, Tian Fengshan, do you think I'm blind? What are you holding behind you? Do you think I can't see it? I'm going to find the director right now. I want to see if you can still get away with it!"
"Tong Di, you are determined to go against me!"
"I am sticking to my principles. I have to live up to my identity. Besides, I invited He Rongxuan back, so I have the responsibility and obligation to protect him."
"Good, good, Tong Di, you are great!"
Tian Fengshan was furious, but he couldn't do anything about it, so he had to compromise and looked at Xu Wei and said:
"Xu Wei, send He Rongxuan back to the confinement room first, and we will review the case tomorrow!"
"yes!"
Seeing He Rongxuan being sent back by Xu Wei, Tong Di felt relieved. This could be regarded as repaying Meng Xiuyun's kindness to her.
"Deputy Director Tong, do you have any comments this time? I've been busy all night and I have to go back to rest. See you tomorrow!"
After Tian Fengshan finished speaking, he pushed Tong Di away and walked away in a swagger.
After Xu Wei put He Rongxuan into the confinement room, he left immediately. He didn't want to get involved in the war between the two deputy directors, for fear of being used as a scapegoat.
Having just recovered from a serious injury and not having eaten for a long time, He Rongxuan was a little exhausted at this time, but in order to conserve his energy, he could only lean against the corner of the wall to rest.
“Squeak…”
The small window on the confinement room door was opened.
"He Rongxuan, I'm Tong Di, are you okay?"
He Rongxuan opened his eyes, looked at the door not far away, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Thank you, Deputy Director Tong. I'm fine!"
"Here is water and food, please make do with it for now, I'm leaving first, take care!"
Tong Di did not stay long. He put down the water and the nest and left in a hurry.
He Rongxuan staggered to the door, picked up the big bowl and started drinking.
After a while, half of the bowl of water was gone.
Although my thirst was not completely quenched, I had stopped drinking He Rongxuan and didn't know when I could be released, so it was better to drink this water sparingly.
He picked up one of the steamed buns, which was still warm. After calculating the time, He Rongxuan guessed that this should be Tong Di's breakfast.
There were only two nests. He Rongxuan ate one and put the other in his arms.
In the He family courtyard, He Rongxuan woke up at around four in the morning.
Seeing Han Yuan standing by, a very complicated emotion flashed in his eyes.
“Cough..cough cough…”
I was about to speak, but a sudden cough disrupted my rhythm.
Hearing the sound, Han Yuan immediately woke up.
"How are you feeling? Anything else that's bothering you?"
As Han Yuan spoke, he handed the warm water he had prepared in advance to He Feilong's mouth.
After drinking a few sips of water, He Feilong felt much better, but his face was still a little pale.
"Where are Xiuyun and Xiaonuan? Were they not scared? Is Shuren coming over?"
"How could Xiuyun not be worried when you came back like that yesterday? Fortunately, Xiaonuan said your wound was not serious and the bleeding was stopped in time.
I will volunteer to stay here to keep watch for you, so that the two of them can go and rest first. After all, we don’t know what will happen next! ”
He Feilong nodded indifferently.
"I'm fine, you can go back to your room and rest."
"I'm not tired. I'll stay here with you! Are you hungry? There's some millet porridge warming up in the pot in the kitchen. I'll make you some."
He Feilong shook his head.
"Don't eat yet, we'll talk later!"
"Okay, if you need anything, just call me."
"Well, I'll sleep a little longer. You should sleep for a while too. It's still early!"
Glancing at the clock on the wall, He Feilong didn't want to make Han Yuan suffer any more, after all, he was not young anymore.
Han Yuan could not help but feel He Feilong's concern. He felt very warm in his heart and nodded repeatedly in response:
"Okay, okay, I'll take a nap too. You go to sleep first. I'll sleep after you fall asleep!"
"Let's sleep together. I feel good right now. Let's sleep and don't talk!"
"good!"
