Chapter 157: Going Home Now with her help, we caught the criminal...
The public security comrades did not expect that as long as Wang Ying stayed here, people would come to see her every day and run around for her.
"If we don't catch the real culprit soon, the doors of the General Administration will be crushed by Wang Ying's relatives and friends."
At a meeting, the female police officer said.
"Indeed, I heard that even some senior leaders have started paying attention to Wang Ying's case. They don't know much about the situation, but they have heard of her. Many people have a good impression of her and are very optimistic about her."
"She is indeed excellent and very capable."
"So the other party is very vicious. If we really wrongly accuse Comrade Wang Ying, we will not only miss the real spy, but also lose a very good comrade!"
"Everyone's attention is on Wang Ying right now, so this is a good time for us to investigate. Let's have her contact Lu Yanfen again and see if we can get some more information out of her. I have a feeling she's hiding something and isn't being honest."
On the same day, Wang Ying was arranged to be interrogated together with Lu Yanfen.
The interrogation was still about their superiors. Lu Yanfen had been detained for these days and her mental state was not very good. The charm on her face was gone, and she became dull and wooden.
After the interrogation, Wang Ying and Lu Yanfen were imprisoned together.
After a long silence, Wang Ying sighed, "I don't know when I can get out. I miss my child."
Lu Yanfen raised her eyelids and glanced at Wang Ying: "How did you end up on this path?"
"What about you?" Wang Ying asked back.
Lu Yanfen smiled sadly. "Well, I just want to live a good life. You might not know about my family, but our ancestors were quite wealthy. Of course, up to my generation, I've only heard about it from the elders. Our family background wasn't good, and later all our property was donated to support the revolution. When I heard the elders talk about how well off our families were when they were young, I felt uneasy and didn't understand why we had to donate our property. Then someone infiltrated me and slowly told me how great life was abroad. I was tempted and wanted to go abroad."
"Then did you marry Gao Weifeng also for the mission?" Wang Ying asked again.
Lu Yanfen looked at Wang Ying and lowered her eyes. "Actually, at that time, my mission was to infiltrate them, and mainly to infiltrate Zhao Yunsheng."
Wang Ying was shocked, what a thing!
"That was when I showed Zhao Yunsheng a lot of books, including quite a few capitalist novels," Lu Yanfen said. "But he was a strange person. After reading the novels, he didn't yearn for the life described in them. Instead, he admired the writing skills and said he wanted to be a creative person..."
Wang Ying: ...Maybe Zhao Yunsheng is a natural born writer.
"Zhao Yunsheng seemed dissatisfied with many things, a heretic, dissatisfied with the policies of the time, and dissatisfied with the movement. The three of us also said a lot of critical remarks in private. But if I even hinted at a yearning for foreign countries, he would immediately defend me and warn me not to forget the blood I shed."
Wang Ying recalled Zhao Yunsheng's words: A writer who doesn't harbor a deep love for the land they live on and their compatriots can't write with realism. Zhao Yunsheng might appear frivolous, but he's a man at heart. Lu Yanfen's attempt to infiltrate him was doomed to fail.
"By the way, I only know that you are the same, but I don't know what your mission is." Lu Yanfen asked.
Wang Ying laughed at himself and sighed, "What's the point of saying this now? I haven't done anything yet and I've already been arrested."
Lu Yanfen also sighed and said, "Yeah... they were all caught. I actually suspected for a while that I was mistaken. You don't look like it. But you have flaws all over you. I reminded you several times, but you seemed not to understand."
Wang Ying thought, I just don’t understand...
"They are all tasks." Wang Ying sighed again.
"I think so," Lu Yanfen said. "Do you think we can be lenient with such a serious crime?"
"It should be possible." Wang Ying said.
Lu Yanfen leaned close to Wang Ying and whispered, "I think once they catch him, we'll be of no use to him and will definitely be shot."
Wang Ying's mind raced as he said, "He won't be caught. It's been so many years."
Lu Yanfen's eyes brightened a little: "So you think the same as I do. How could a man as smart as him be caught? I wish I could see him again."
"Actually, I'm a little afraid of him," said Wang Ying.
"What are you afraid of? He's not fierce. He's very kind and even has dimples when he smiles." Lu Yanfen seemed to be immersed in her fantasy about that man.
Lu Yanfen had indeed lied. She had previously said that she didn't know what this person looked like because they had met very rarely and always in person. But now she said that this person had dimples.
"I haven't seen him many times, and I feel like his eyes make me afraid to look at him." Wang Ying continued, trying to get Lu Yanfen to say something.
"You are so timid. His eyes are curved when he smiles. How can he be scary?"
"When I'm not laughing, I mean."
"Well, a little bit indeed." Lu Yanfen said, "His eyes are just a little small. If his eyes were bigger, he wouldn't be so scary." Lu Yanfen.
The police officer who was eavesdropping on their conversation in the next room glanced at each other and wrote down on a piece of paper: "Man, small eyes, eyes that curved when he smiled, dimples..."
"Wang Ying performed well!" one of the police officers whispered.
"It's really good. It's all improvisation."
"With two distinct features, the scope is narrowed down a lot."
"Listen carefully and be ready to interrupt them at any time."
Here, Wang Ying asked Lu Yanfen a few more questions, then hesitantly said, "Actually, I..."
"What's wrong with you? What's the matter?" Lu Yanfen asked.
At this moment, the door was opened and two police officers came in and interrupted Wang Ying.
Lu Yanfen was a little anxious. Wang Ying obviously had something to say to her, but was interrupted at this moment. Wang Ying glanced at Lu Yanfen obscurely.
Wang Ying said this to confuse Lu Yanfen, making her look forward to being imprisoned together again, so she could then extract more information. This was Wang Ying's own suggestion to the police, and it was immediately adopted.
The police took both Wang Ying and Lu Yanfen away. Lu Yanfen was moved to a smaller, darker room without windows, while Wang Ying returned to her original room.
Not long after Wang Ying returned to her room, the female police officer came to see her. Wang Ying stayed there for more than ten days, and they became good friends.
"Sister Yang Xia." Wang Ying stood up and greeted her.
"Hurry up and sit down," said policewoman Yang Xia with a smile. "My colleagues told me you did a fantastic job today, capturing the prisoner's key facial features."
"It's good that we can play some role. We can't just sit here and eat the public food." Wang Ying and Yang Xia said with a smile.
"I think you are quite talented. Why don't you become my partner?" Yang Xia said.
"Sister, you think too highly of me. Only because Lu Yanfen was imprisoned and lost her mind could she be fooled by me like this," said Wang Ying.
"You can't bear to leave your biscuit factory, right?" Yang Xia said with a smile.
Wang Ying chuckled and didn't deny it: "Sister Yang Xia is still amazing."
"By the way, your factory director is here today too," said Yang Xia.
"Oh, that's rare!" Wang Ying said. "What did he say?"
"They asked you how long you would continue assisting with the investigation," Yang Xia said. "They also told you to leave a message saying the factory is waiting for you to return."
Wang Ying felt that it was very difficult for Director Qian to do this. She thought he would report her to the boss and fire her.
"Oh, actually, it's good to be locked up like this occasionally. A true heart is revealed in times of adversity." Wang Ying said with a smile.
"Who was the one who cried and asked us to catch the criminal quickly a few days ago?" Yang Xia teased Wang Ying without any hesitation.
Wang Ying smiled, then turned serious again: "Sister Yang Xia, with the facial features we saw today, we should be able to catch him soon, right? I feel like there are quite a few men with dimples."
"Well, now we have the facial features of the superior, but we have no information at all about the accomplice."
"Lu Yanfen didn't know who this person was, so she could only bring her to the top for retrial."
"In short, you have made great contributions. Don't worry, the organization will not ignore your sacrifice and merit. When the case is over, you will definitely be given the honor and rewards you deserve," said Yang Xia.
"This is what I should do." Wang Ying said seriously, "Whatever else you need me to do, I will fully cooperate."
"Not for now. You've done a great job. Wait for good news." Yang Xia stood up and patted Wang Ying on the shoulder. "I'm going to get busy. You should have a good rest."
Wang Ying had been staying at the Public Security Bureau for half a month, but no one outside had seen her, and there was no news of her.
Zhao Yunsheng told Wang Ying that her mother had fallen ill due to excessive worry.
In fact, her parents' reaction this time was beyond Wang Ying's expectations, especially when she heard that her mother fell ill because of worry about her, she was still very touched and a little worried.
Yang Xia looked ashamed: "We didn't do our job well."
Wang Ying quickly adjusted her smile and said, "I don't blame you. I know how hard you've worked."
Although Wang Ying expressed his understanding for the public security comrades, the pressure on them did not decrease at all, and they investigated almost day and night.
Lu Yanfen was locked up in a small, dark cell, and her mental state deteriorated. She would periodically demand to see Wang Ying. But the police refused to let her see him. She became furious, even banging her head against the wall. When the police interrogated her, she would either speak incoherently or remain silent.
Finally, the police saw that the time was right and arranged for her to meet with Wang Ying.
Wang Ying also deliberately made herself look haggard, and the two were locked in the same room. Lu Yanfen burst into tears when she saw Wang Ying.
"Are we unable to leave?" Lu Yanfen cried. "I definitely can't leave. I won't be able to see the moons of other countries, nor our own moon."
Wang Ying comforted him, "No, you can definitely get out. You haven't obtained the formula yet, and you haven't caused any losses to the country. We have explained everything we should explain now, and we will definitely show leniency."
"Have you confessed everything?" Lu Yanfen looked at Wang Ying.
"Is there anything else you haven't explained?" Wang Ying asked.
The two looked at each other, and Lu Yanfen smiled miserably: "Yes, you are different from me. You have a husband and children."
"You are stupid. Even at this point, you are still hiding it for him. In fact, with his intelligence, he will not be caught even if you confess everything." Wang Ying sighed.
"I am just stupid, everyone says I am stupid. Zhao Yunsheng must have told you that I am stupid, Gao Weifeng also said so, my parents-in-law also said so..." Lu Yanfen began to talk to herself for a long time. Wang Ying and the police in the next room were listening carefully, for fear of missing any details.
Wang Ying did not interrupt her and let her talk, but she was really mentally unstable. She spoke incoherently, and three or four out of ten sentences were repeated. Sometimes she imagined herself living a wonderful life abroad, and sometimes she imagined that her family was still the capitalist family as before, and she was the eldest daughter in the family... In Lu Yanfen's fantasy, that "he" was always by her side.
Lu Yanfen likes that person.
Finally, they caught a useful piece of information from Lu Yanfen's incoherent words: this person can play the piano and dance.
In this day and age, there are too few people who can play the piano, so the scope of investigation is narrowed again.
After a long soliloquy, Lu Yanfen suddenly stared at Wang Ying and said viciously, "You've confessed everything! You're a traitor! You betrayed him!"
After saying that, she rushed towards Wang Ying and tried to strangle her.
Although Wang Ying was not as tall as Lu Yanfen, she had been eating and drinking well these days and was in much better spirits than Lu Yanfen. Lu Yanfen missed the target and fell down instead.
The comrades next door heard the noise and rushed over immediately to pull Lu Yanfen away! Lu Yanfen continued to curse Wang Ying as a traitor.
Wang Ying was also taken back to the room. Although she was not scratched by Lu Yanfen, she was also frightened.
"Are you okay?" Yang Xia came to see Wang Ying.
Wang Ying shook his head: "I'm fine, Lu Yanfen is close to going crazy."
"She's a person under mental control. Now that she's out of control and gone crazy, it's normal," Yang Xia said. "I won't arrange for you to meet again. She's becoming increasingly dangerous."
Wang Ying nodded. "She said today that the man could play the piano, which is rare. She also said that when they were dancing, her ear was close to his chest. So, this man must be very tall, so the scope of investigation should be very small."
Yang Xia smiled and said, "You're really suited to our line of work. You're very thoughtful."
"I'm just showing off my skills in front of an expert," said Wang Ying.
For several days afterwards, Wang Ying was unable to see Yang Xia, and usually only a young comrade brought her meals.
Wang Ying guessed that this must be a critical moment. She should be able to go home soon, and she didn't know how her mother was doing.
Ever since Wang Ying had been detained at the Public Security Bureau, Li Fengju hadn't been able to eat or sleep properly, no matter how much Zhao Yunsheng tried to persuade her. Even after Zhao Yunsheng hinted that Wang Ying was fine and was genuinely assisting with the investigation, Li Fengju couldn't rest easy.
Wang Yongren understood what Zhao Yunsheng said and joined in persuading her, but Li Fengju could not rest in peace until she saw Wang Ying come out for a day.
Li Fengju had hardly slept for many days. Wang Yongren was afraid that if Li Fengju continued like this, her body would completely collapse, so he asked Zhao Yunfei for a sleeping pill.
Before going to bed at night, Wang Yongren mixed the sleeping pill with Li Fengju's medicine and asked her to take it together.
Li Fengju fell into an unprecedented deep sleep. She had a long dream:
In the dream, Wang Ying married Du Jianguo, and Wang Hui married Zhao Yunsheng. Wang Ying suffered a lot in the Du family and never had children; Wang Hui had a good life in the Zhao family at first, but soon Wang Hui had a miscarriage, divorced, and returned to them.
Wang Ying worked in a garment factory and became more and more successful. He was very filial to them and also took good care of Wang Hui.
Wang Ying quit his job and started a business. His business grew bigger and bigger, and things became better and better for them. Wang Hui always stayed by their side and made them happy.
Wang Ying took them all to Shenzhen. She found out that Wang Hui and Du Jianguo were together. She beat and scolded them, but was coaxed by Wang Hui and Du Jianguo and began to cover for them.
Finally, Wang Ying found out about Wang Hui and Du Jianguo. Wang Ying didn't want them anymore, and she didn't want anyone who hurt her.
Li Fengju struggled desperately in her dream, wanting to hit her dream self. How could she do that to Yingzi! That was her daughter too! But no matter how Li Fengju yelled, her dream self wouldn't hear a word. She only favored Wang Hui and hurt Wang Ying... Until finally, Wang Ying completely disappeared from her side, and she could never find her again...
"Yingzi! Yingzi!" Li Fengju cried loudly, waking up Wang Yongren beside her.
It was already dawn at this time. Wang Yongren saw Li Fengju with her eyes closed, her eyelids trembling, tears in the corners of her eyes, and she kept calling Yingzi's name.
Wang Yongren pushed Li Fengju: "Fengju, wake up! Wake up!"
Li Fengju was startled and her eyes opened wide when she saw Wang Yongren.
"Are you dreaming?" Wang Yongren said.
Li Fengju was still crying and had not yet recovered from her shock.
Wang Yongren was very worried when he saw Li Fengju like this. Zhao Yunfei told him to take only half a pill, but he gave Li Fengju a whole sleeping pill, fearing that it would harm her.
"Fengju, Fengju!" Wang Yongren called Li Fengju and pushed her again.
Li Fengju sat up and looked at Wang Yongren blankly.
"I'll go get you a glass of water." Wang Yongren got up from the bed.
He heard two slapping sounds behind him and turned his head quickly. He saw Li Fengju slapping himself in the face. He hurried forward and grabbed her hand: "Fengju, wake up! What are you doing!"
"I'm not a human being! I did that kind of thing! I'm too embarrassed to see Yingzi!" Li Fengju cried and even hit herself.
"Oh, what are you dreaming about? It's fake, fake!" Wang Yongren was so anxious that he was running around in circles.
"It wasn't a dream, it wasn't a dream!" Li Fengju was filled with regret. She thought of Wang Hui's sudden desire to marry someone else, and then she remembered Wang Ying's sudden indifference towards them. Suddenly, everything came to her mind.
"If it's not a dream, then it's something else. You're having a nightmare." Wang Yongren said as he held Li Fengju's wrist to prevent her from hitting him.
"No, I'm sorry Yingzi. I was totally wrong." Li Fengju murmured.
Wang Yongren sighed, thinking that Li Fengju was like this because she was too worried about Wang Yingcai.
Li Fengju struggled to get up: "No, I want to see Yingzi, I want to go now."
"You can't see her! They won't let you see her, so don't make a fuss. Yunsheng said Yingzi is fine and will be back in a few days." Wang Yongren pressed Li Fengju's shoulders and prevented her from getting up.
"No, I must see him. If you don't let me see him, I will hang myself in front of the Public Security Bureau." Li Fengju struggled to get up. She suddenly burst out with great strength, and Wang Yongren could hardly hold her down.
"Okay, okay, don't get excited. I'll take you there." Wang Yongren said, "I'll take you there."
The Wangs went straight to the police station without even having breakfast. Li Fengju cried the whole way. She'd always heard people talk about their past lives, and now she finally knew what her past life had been like. She also realized that her two daughters probably knew too.
The two arrived at the Public Security Bureau. Li Fengju and her group had been coming here frequently recently, and the people in the Public Security Bureau already knew her. Just as they were about to step forward to dissuade them, Li Fengju knelt down in front of a young police officer.
The police were so frightened that they rushed to help: "Auntie, get up quickly, get up quickly."
As soon as Yang Xia arrived at the bureau, she saw Li Fengju and her colleagues arguing with each other, and hurried forward to ask.
All they heard was Li Fengju begging them to see her daughter and even kneeling down to them.
Yang Xia sighed and said, "Auntie, please come with me first. I'll ask the leader for instructions."
Li Fengju hurriedly pulled Yang Xia's arm and followed her.
Yang Xia took Li Fengju to her office and then went to ask her leader for instructions.
Wang Yongren sat next to Li Fengju and sighed.
Wang Ying just got up, washed up, sat on the edge of the bed reading a book, waiting for someone to bring her breakfast.
The door was knocked twice, then opened from the outside. Wang Ying was stunned: "Mom?"
Li Fengju rushed to Wang Ying and hugged her in her arms.
Wang Ying didn't care about Li Fengju, but only looked at Yang Xia who was standing at the door, and asked her with his eyes, "Is it okay to let her mother in?"
Yang Xia smiled and said, "Just now, my leader told me that the person has been caught."
"Yingzi! Mom is sorry for you!" Li Fengju hugged Wang Ying tightly and cried.
"Mom, calm down, this is the Public Security Bureau!" Wang Ying didn't know what was wrong with her mother. She suddenly ran over so excitedly and wanted to apologize to her.
Yang Xia also said: "Auntie, don't worry. Comrade Wang Ying is really helping us by staying here. Now that she has helped us catch the criminal, she can go back soon."
"Really?" Li Fengju didn't care about anything else after hearing what Yang Xia said.
"Really." Yang Xia said.
Li Fenju grabbed Wang Ying's hand and said, "Let's go home with Mom."
Wang Ying asked Yang Xia, "Can I leave now?"
"Well, go back with your mother. I'll find you if there's anything else."
Wang Ying wanted to ask about the details of the spy, but such matters were confidential and could not be disclosed. So, Li Fengju took Wang Ying out.
When Wang Yongren saw that Li Fengju had really brought his daughter out, he immediately stood up and went forward to greet her.
"Yingzi, can you come out now?" Wang Yongren said.
"Well, my assistance is over," Wang Ying said. "I'm sorry to have caused you worry."
"Oh, your mother is half dead." Wang Yongren sighed, "Well, then, go back quickly and don't delay the work of the public security comrades!"
After the three of them left the Public Security Bureau, Wang Yongren said, "Oh, there's only one car. How are we going to get back?"
Yang Xia said, "I'll ask our colleagues to take you there."
Li Fengju actually wanted to take Wang Ying back to her parents' home. Wang Ying was worried about her daughter and Zhao Yunsheng, so she had to go back to her own home. So Li Fengju and Wang Yongren followed Wang Ying home together.
Zhao Yunsheng woke up in the morning, coaxed Yueyue who was crying for her mother, and carried her downstairs.
Chen Xiuqin had already prepared breakfast, and the family ate it without any appetite, and no one had a smile on their face.
At this moment, the gate rang.
Zhao Yunsheng jumped up, rushed out of the main room, flew to the gate of the courtyard, and immediately opened the door. Then, he saw Wang Ying standing at the door, looking at him with a smile.
Zhao Yunsheng looked at Wang Ying and didn't know what to say for a moment. He even suspected that he was dreaming.
"Comrade Wang Ying, on behalf of our General Bureau, I would like to express my gratitude for your help this time and apologize to your family!" The police officer who sent Wang Ying back bowed to her at the door of Wang Ying's home.
"This is what I should do. Comrade, please go back." Wang Ying said hurriedly.
"Yingzi is back!"
"Mom!" "Aunt!"
Everyone at home also rushed out.
Wang Ying said goodbye to the police, entered the house, and immediately picked up her daughter: "My dear, I miss you so much."
Chen Xiuqin was so happy that she was in a panic.
Director Zhao kept saying, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back."
Although Zhao Yunsheng hinted to them that Wang Ying would be fine, they would not be at peace until Wang Ying came out.
Li Fengju looked at Wang Ying and thought to herself, fortunately, her daughter has found happiness in her life. As long as she is doing well now, that's all. She secretly wiped away her tears and turned to leave.
"Fengju, why are you leaving?" Chen Xiuqin hurriedly called her.
Wang Yongren felt strange. She had been clamoring to see her daughter since morning, and now that her daughter was back safely, she wanted to leave again.
Li Fengju glanced at Wang Ying and lowered her head in shame. She suddenly felt a little afraid to face Wang Ying again.
Wang Ying vaguely guessed the truth and said, "Mom, I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time. If you can hold on, please cook a meal for me."
Li Fengju hurriedly said, "Hold on, hold on, I'll make it, what do you want to eat?"
"Let's have breakfast first. You haven't eaten yet, have you?" Chen Xiuqin said again, "I'll go make some noodles. It'll be quick."
Zhao Yunsheng kept staring at Wang Ying in a daze.
"Are you stupid? Why don't you close the gate?" Wang Ying said.
Zhao Yunsheng came to his senses and obediently closed the door.
The family returned to the main hall and sat down. Zhao Yunsheng sat next to Wang Ying. In fact, he really wanted to drive all the relatives away and then carry Wang Ying upstairs...
