In fact, Wu Chengzhu was also worried about the case of Cheng Wei being hit, but he could not find any clues. Wang Jin and Pei Yulin kept putting pressure on him, urging him to solve the case quickly. Now Li Lin also came to accuse him of "failing to perform his duties" with this case, and he really had no words to say.
After a long while, Wu Chengzhu sighed and said, "This case is really strange... There are so many surveillance cameras along the road, but they didn't even capture the shadow of the car that caused the accident. I really feel ashamed of the trust of the provincial leaders."
Turning his head, Wu Chengzhu looked at Li Lin and asked in confusion, "From what you said just now, do you know the ins and outs of this case? Do you know where the breakthrough of this case is? Tell me quickly... Secretary Wang and his men call me every hour, and I am so worried."
Li Lin never thought about helping Wu Chengzhu solve the case, after all, he was not good at handling cases...
But seeing Wu Chengzhu's eager look, Li Lin couldn't refuse directly.
I thought, then just give him a tip.
Li Lin asked back, "Director Wu, I've said so much... Don't you have any inspiration at all?"
Wu Chengzhu frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "Are you saying that Deputy Secretary Tu was behind all this?"
Li Lin nodded and said, "It's definitely him!"
Wu Chengzhu asked, "Do you have any evidence?"
Li Lin said, "I don't have any evidence in Minister Cheng's case, but he sent people to Shannan to attack me, and I have witnesses!"
Wu Chengzhu was disappointed, "These are two different cases! Besides, even if you have the confession of the criminal, it does not mean that the evidence is irrefutable! What if these suspects change their confession in court? What if these people turn the tables after court and accuse the Shannan County police of violent law enforcement and torture? What evidence do you have to identify Tu Ming?"
This is why Li Lin has been suppressing the prisoners and not daring to submit their confessions directly to the higher authorities! Now we only know that Tu Ming is the mastermind behind the scenes, but there is no hard evidence to prove it directly... After all, people can lie. When the time comes, Tu Ming will say "This is a political frame-up..." Not only will he not be convicted, but the Shannan police will also be punished!
Li Lin said, "I know that the current evidence is not enough to incriminate Tu Ming, but it is enough to prove that Tu Ming is the mastermind behind the scenes! If we follow this clue, won't the truth be revealed? The reason why the person who hit Minister Cheng disappeared without a trace under the police's nose must be that there is a problem within the public security system. Someone covered up or destroyed the evidence for the criminals, so the case was reported to you from bottom to top, and it became an unsolved case with no clues! Director Wu, what you have to do now is not to investigate the case, but to investigate the person! This is also the main purpose of my calling you today! As long as we cut off the secret line that Tu Ming buried in the public security, procuratorial and judicial systems, we can further force Tu Ming to expose himself completely!"
Li Lin didn't believe that Wu Chengzhu didn't understand these principles. He thought Wu Chengzhu was just pretending to be confused. As an old criminal detective, since he knew who was behind the scenes, wouldn't he be able to reverse the case? It was just that he felt that this matter involved too many people and didn't dare to make a rash decision.
Besides, it was taboo to investigate one's own people within the system. They were afraid that if they investigated a large number of people, no one from top to bottom would be spared... By then, the Hanjiang Public Security Bureau would be famous throughout the country. Pei Yulin and Wu Chengzhu's future would end here.
But Li Lin believed that Wu Chengzhu was not the kind of person who would ignore the overall situation for the sake of his future.
Hearing this, Wu Chengzhu fell silent.
Just as Li Lin guessed, how could he not know how to investigate further? He was just hesitant as to whether he should continue the investigation.
After a long while, Wu Chengzhu said, "Do an internal self-examination. This matter is too big for me to make the decision. I must report it to Governor Pei and let him make the decision."
After saying that, Wu Chengzhu stood up and was about to make an internal call.
Li Lin hurried over and held down Wu Chengzhu's hand as he was about to pick up the phone.
Wu Chengzhu looked at Li Lin in confusion.
Li Lin said to Wu Chengzhu solemnly, "Director Wu, this matter should not be spread for the time being... If Director Pei asks you why you want to conduct a self-inspection, will you tell him that the purpose of the self-inspection is to investigate Tu Ming? Don't forget that Tu Ming ranks third in the provincial party committee and has a higher status than Governor Pei! If you are hesitant, can you be sure that Governor Pei will make up his mind to conduct a thorough investigation? What if he backs down... If the news gets out and Tu Ming becomes alert, then this matter can't be investigated further!"
Li Lin said it very tactfully. In fact, what he wanted to express was that even Pei Yulin was not sure which team he was on at the moment!
Wu Chengzhu understood and took his hand away from the phone.
Then I paced back and forth many times.
It can be seen how much he was struggling inside. If he did it, he would be worthy of the Party and the people but would be violating the rules. If he didn't do it, he would be sorry for the Party and the people but would save his future.
Li Lin stood behind him and looked at him quietly. It was useless to say anything now. He had to make his own choice.
Suddenly, Wu Chengzhu stopped, looked out the window, and asked in a deep voice with his back to Li Lin, "Tell me, what do you want me to do? Let me tell you first, a large-scale internal reorganization is absolutely impossible!"
Li Lin stepped forward and said, "Don't do it on a large scale. It's best to do it in secret... I guess Tu Ming has a long reach in the public security system... As long as we lure the snake out of its hole, we can accurately catch his people!"
Wu Chengzhu's eyes lit up and he asked curiously, "Tell me, how should we do it?"
Li Lin said, "The accident happened in Pingyang, and the service area where the vehicle disappeared is the border between Pingyang City and Shannan County...Tomorrow I will ask the Shannan police to submit a progress report on the case...Say to the public that they have important clues...If Tu Ming's people know about this, they will definitely find ways to get this report...All you need to do is observe secretly and arrest the person when the time is right!"
