Chapter 554 Take Him Away
The beautiful female prison guard walked out of the interrogation room with an expressionless face, muttering in her heart, "I didn't torture you, so you can't blame me for what you say."
She walked down the corridor with heavy steps, wondering if Huo Qiheng would cause trouble in prison.
"How did you end up in prison?"
Huo Qiheng sat opposite Huo Yan. He wanted to know whether the case file was the same as what Huo Yan said.
Even if he wanted to take Huo Yan away, he had to hear what Huo Yan had to say, so that he could do it with justification.
Chief Huo also knew that doing so would lead to criticism.
Huo Yan looked at the secretary next to her and said hurriedly, "I don't want outsiders to listen to how I got in."
"Can't."
Huo Qiheng's face turned livid, and he spoke word by word without even looking at Huo Yan.
He paused and continued, "No matter how many people are here, you have to tell the truth so that we can know how you got in."
"You need to confess truthfully. Was there any torture involved?"
Huo Yan is not stupid. Although she is ugly, she is smart and immediately understood her brother's hint. She blinked her eyes and thought for a while.
Looking at the clerk's hand and the pen in it, he said slowly, "They have damaged my brain. Let me think about it carefully."
"Song Qinian was seeking revenge for a personal vendetta. Just because I had a quarrel with Bai Wei, he sent people to take me to the Military Control Commission."
…
Huo Qiheng couldn't help but feel happy when he heard Huo Yan's impromptu performance and nonsense. This silly girl was not stupid and understood what he said.
This is exactly the effect he wants. If there is testimony from the prison, overturning the case will be easy.
Huo Yan distorted the facts for several hours and successfully avoided the whole story of the case. She only talked about the grudge between her and Bai Wei, and how Song Qinian bullied her while her brother was not at home.
She took advantage of Song Qinian's absence and went to Bai Wei's house to have a fight. She thought that everything was over, but Song Qinian came back, arrested her, and sentenced her to twenty years in prison.
The warden was completely confused by what he heard. He turned to look at his deputy with a bewildered look on his face.
The clerk in particular felt something was wrong as he was writing. He thought he was trying to overturn a verdict, but that was not the way to overturn a verdict. The military control and police department should be allowed to intervene and investigate the case again.
In addition, the people who handle this case should also be involved.
He is a veteran and feels that Captain Song will not send his boss's sister to prison because of personal grudges.
Thinking of this, he raised his hand and asked to speak.
"Clerk, what do you want to say?"
asked the warden.
"I think the case is serious and we cannot just listen to Huo Yan's one-sided story. We should call Song Qinian, who handled the case, as well as relevant personnel from the Military Control Commission and the Police Department, to listen to their opinions."
Secretary, after saying this, I suddenly regretted it. Are Huo Yan and Huo Qiheng a family?
Thinking of this, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He didn't dare look up at anyone, just lowered his head and continued taking shorthand notes.
"I know the case is serious, and I also know Huo Yan was wrongly accused."
"I will not let Song Qinian, the Military Control Commission, and the police station go. You don't have to worry about it. Just take your notes."
Huo Qiheng glanced at the clerk and muttered to himself, this clerk really doesn't know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is, he actually dared to ruin my good thing.
We must make sure he goes back to where he came from.
The power of military control was not a legend in the 1970s; its words worked.
"yes."
The secretary said weakly.
"Warden, I have taken Huo Yan away. The Military Control Commission is going to conduct a thorough investigation. It is not appropriate for her to stay here."
“…”
The warden did not expect that Huo Qiheng would directly nominate someone. What does nominating someone mean? It means he wants to overturn the verdict.
He opened his mouth and was about to say no, but was stunned by Huo Qiheng's cold gaze and was speechless.
He quickly swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. He couldn't say anything anymore and closed his mouth tightly.
"All right."
After holding it in for a long time, the warden squeezed out two words from between his teeth.
His previous flattery towards Chief Huo suddenly disappeared, replaced by helplessness and embarrassment.
The warden knew better than anyone how serious this case was and how dire the consequences would be, but facing Fok Kai-hang, he had no choice but to release the man.
"I will inform you of the results of the investigation into the Huo Yan case."
Huo Qiheng stood up from his chair and spoke to the warden.
"Listen to Chief Huo."
The warden had no choice but to agree to let Huo Kaiheng take Huo Yan away.
At this time, at the prison gate, there was a company of soldiers standing, holding submachine guns, waiting in formation.
The warden escorted Chief Huo out of the prison. He was shocked by the situation in front of him. He realized what the consequences would be if he had said no.
He touched his forehead with his hand, and sweat flowed down through his fingertips like a waterfall.
After seeing Huo Qiheng off, he watched Huo Yan being taken away helplessly. Now he not only felt helpless, but also wanted to die.
He quickly called the police station and wanted to tell Director Hao the news.
Director Hao sat in his office, not daring to go anywhere. He wanted to wait quietly for Huo Qiheng to come find him.
The case was not handled by the police station, but was transferred by the Military Control Commission. It was just a process and a procedure, and had nothing to do with him. However, Jia Yulan made a fuss about it for many days.
He didn't know who to blame, and he didn't dare to blame anyone, so in the end he was still the unlucky one.
At this time, the phone rang. Director Hao picked up the phone and asked hurriedly, "Who is this?"
"I'm Old Xu!"
Old Xu didn't want to exchange pleasantries with Director Hao, so after introducing himself, he continued, "I'm Old Xu from the prison. Director Huo just took Huo Yan away from the prison."
"I feel this is a serious matter, so I want to tell you."
When Chief Hao heard what happened in the prison from the prison warden, Old Xu, he felt as if someone had thrown a bomb into his heart, which instantly exploded and was blown to pieces.
He trembled and said, "Old Xu, I didn't expect things to be like this. I thought I was just asking about the case."
"You didn't expect it, and neither did I. Huo Yan was taken away directly. But Huo Yan is not lying. She is very good at telling lies."
Old Xu briefly mentioned the matter of Chief Huo going to prison, and then said: "Director Hao, why don't you tell the people in the Military Control Commission? Otherwise, we will be like a rat in a bellows, suffering from both sides."
"I'll talk to Captain Song. He's the one who handled the case. The Military Control Commission transferred it to me."
Director Hao was extremely smart. With just a few words, he cleared himself completely without any ashes left.
He said to Lao Xu helplessly.
"It's enough for you to know this. We all listen to it."
"When facing a high-ranking official, I have no temper at all."
Old Xu was a military man. After retiring from the army, he was assigned to a prison and became the warden.
