Liu Zi looked at the fishermen around him.
Pointing proudly to his arm patch, he said:
"We're from Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill. As for what law they broke by doing self-repairs?"
"Didn't our section chief say before that he was bullying our factory workers?"
After saying that, he picked up his self-study materials and ran towards Lin Yang and the others.
The surrounding fishermen were discussing among themselves, clearly not expecting that such a small old man as Zixiu could actually get into a fight.
You can only say that you can't judge a book by its cover.
At this time, when they arrested Lin Yang, who was studying on his own, they did not take him back to the steel rolling mill.
Instead, he went to Nanluo Police Station with Tong Daning.
Although when they arrested him, they said that Zixiu had bullied the workers at the steel rolling mill.
But that's just an excuse; if they really want to interrogate Zixiu, Liu Fujun will have to come.
Because he didn't do it himself, Lin Yang didn't receive any extra rewards this time.
The basic rewards are pretty good, though.
A basic Traditional Chinese Medicine skill was awarded as a reward.
Although I drink the spiritual spring water whenever I feel fine, I don't need to see a doctor.
And even the beginner level isn't very useful.
But something is better than nothing, and having something is always better than having nothing at all.
While Lin Yang was experiencing basic TCM skills, the self-taught student who had been arrested initially wondered if Lin Yang had made a mistake and arrested someone with the same name.
He kept babbling on and on, sometimes saying he was going to report Lin Yang, sometimes telling Lin Yang and the others that they had arrested the wrong person, and sometimes threatening Lin Yang that he had connections.
Unfortunately, nobody paid any attention to him.
It wasn't until he saw the gate of the Nanluo Police Station that he immediately sensed something was wrong.
Wasn't the person who arrested me from the steel mill's security department? How did I end up at the police station?
At this moment, Lin Yang stopped playing along and said in a slightly serious tone:
"Then you've committed a crime by studying on your own!"
"If you had confessed before going to the police station, your crime might have been less serious!"
"If you go to the police station and still haven't confessed, then your crime will be serious!"
Na Zixiu's heart skipped a beat; he was originally a third-generation wastrel who just wanted to live a life of leisure and idleness.
Although he had previously connected with someone to sell antiques, his inherent timidity had not disappeared.
After hearing Lin Yang's words, the self-taught man moved his mouth a few times, wanting to confess.
However, still clinging to a sliver of hope, he said, "Is there anything I need to confess? Could this leader give me a hint?"
"Hmph!" Lin Yang stopped and stared into the eyes of the self-studying man, speaking in a low, hushed tone:
"antique."
Do you need me to give you any more hints?
It’s over!
The moment the word "antique" was uttered, Zixiu knew things were going badly; his secrets had probably been exposed.
Thinking of this, the self-taught student immediately put on a mournful face and said:
"Boss, I confess! I confess!"
Tong Daning, who was walking alongside Lin Yang, was stunned.
He thought Lin Yang was just bluffing Zixiu to lower his defenses and make the interrogation easier.
To everyone's surprise, the criminal confessed as soon as they arrived at the police station!
The interrogation went a bit too fast.
Lin Yang was also a bit dumbfounded. In fact, because Zi Xiu confessed so quickly, he even doubted that Zi Xiu had anything to do with the case of the missing national treasure.
Before they could react, Zixiu spilled everything he knew to them, like beans pouring from a bamboo tube.
turn out to be.
Just three months ago, Na Zizheng, who was penniless, was preparing to sell his property in the ghost market to get a lot of money.
I met someone.
This man was named Wei Wenquan, an old friend of Na Zixiu from when he was wealthy.
As a Manchu, Na Zixiu once lived a carefree life and was also obsessed with antiques for a period of time.
Wei Wenquan often sold some strange and unusual small antiques, and Na Zixiu was also generous in his spending, so the two became acquainted.
After that self-taught man fell on hard times and stopped buying antiques, the two had no further contact.
During this reunion, Wei Wenquan treated the self-taught man to a meal.
During the dinner, Na Zixiu learned that Wei Wenquan was a purchasing agent in the Palace Museum's artifact purchasing team.
The items that the self-taught student bought from him were all secretly replaced by him under the guise of his work.
Now that Wei Wenquan is about to be promoted again, he is afraid that if he shows his face in public again, he will be discovered.
They wanted to develop those self-taught individuals into their own downstream distributors.
On the one hand, Na Zixiu was a Manchu, and his family had once been wealthy.
There's always a reason for selling antiques, and no one will suspect anything.
Even if he is now down on his luck, he can still use the pretense passed down from his ancestors.
On the other hand, since those who study on their own are considered insiders, there shouldn't be too many discrepancies in pricing.
With the help of that self-taught man, Wei Wenquan carried small antiques from the Palace Museum's warehouse to sell over the past three months, much like an ant carrying food.
To further motivate him to study on his own, they even took out the gold bricks stored in the warehouse and gave them to him.
In Wei Wenquan's view, these gold bricks were not worth much money at all, and they had been piled up in the warehouse without anyone taking care of them.
It would be better to give it to the self-taught student, so that he would be more motivated to sell things.
After listening to what the self-taught man said, Lin Yang immediately pressed for an answer:
"Zixiu, do you know what treasure Wei Wenquan has stolen recently?"
After thinking for a moment, the self-taught man shook his head and said, "He told me in the past month that he was transferred to the history museum to do artifact collection and exhibition work. He didn't steal anything!"
At first, what Zixiu said excited Tong Daning, but now it was like a bucket of cold water being poured over his head.
Lin Yang pressed further:
"Is it possible that Wei Wenquan stole something without telling you?"
"Or perhaps he has other downstream sellers?"
He was unwilling to accept this situation. If the self-reflection and the so-called Wei Wenquan were only involved in theft by the guards of the Forbidden City, then his position as section chief would be out of reach.
The self-taught man shook his head with absolute certainty and said:
"Impossible, Wei Wenquan is very cautious!"
"In his words, he had been observing me for a long time before he felt comfortable letting me help distribute the goods!"
"And once he stole something, he would deliver it to me that same day, because Wei Wenquan was afraid that his colleagues and superiors would visit his home and discover the things."
Upon hearing this, Tong Daning and Lin Yang exchanged glances and both saw a hint of disappointment in each other's eyes.
This is not what they initially thought!
Looking at Liu Fujun who came out to greet them, Tong Daning said helplessly, "Old Liu, we might have made a wasted trip!"
"What?" Liu Fujun, who was already excited after knowing what had happened, was stunned.
They've already caught him, so why are you saying things aren't going smoothly?
"This old bastard confessed to everything. He did indeed colluded with others to steal from the Forbidden City's warehouse, but it seems to have nothing to do with the theft of national treasures." Tong Daning walked helplessly to Liu Fujun, took out a pack of Peony cigarettes and gave one to him and Lin Yang, then lit one for himself.
He's very unhappy right now.
This displeasure wasn't for myself, but for Lin Yang.
After all, his promotion was a sure thing.
But if Lin Yang hadn't made this contribution, he definitely wouldn't have been able to become the section chief.
