Chapter 585 The Huo Family Has Someone in Kyoto
"Thank you, Director Hao!"
"Can you give me a copy of Huo Yan's confession, which is the evidence that Chief Huo arrested people?"
…
Bai Wei was just about to say make a copy when she immediately realized that in the 1970s, computers were not yet popular and only scientific research institutions had them, let alone copy machines.
She saw Director Hao's secretary coming in from outside and hurriedly asked Director Hao for help.
"OK."
"Ask the secretary to print a copy for you."
…
Director Hao knew that there would be a dispute after Huo Yan was kicked out. He couldn't predict what kind of dispute it would be, but he felt that Bai Wei would not give up easily and counterattack Huo Qiheng.
He watched Bai Wei follow the secretary out of the office, and shook his head hurriedly, muttering in his heart that Song Qinian was in big trouble this time, and it was not as simple as being demoted to become a commoner as he had discussed with Old Xu before.
Why!
Director Hao sighed for Bai Wei, himself, and Lao Xu.
In the ward of the First People's Hospital.
A middle-aged military officer wearing glasses sat beside Song Qinian's bed and asked in a low voice, "Did you torture Huo Yan to extract a confession?"
"no."
Song Qinian's voice was not loud, but very calm, and every word he spoke had a resounding sound.
"You have to answer truthfully. Do you have any grudges with the Huo family?"
"no."
Song Qinian's voice this time was very loud, as if he had adapted to this kind of environment. At the same time, he was also determined to give it a try. The worst that could happen was that he would be sent to the guillotine.
He slightly closed his eyes and glanced at the middle-aged officer through the gap. He suddenly felt that the officer looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in my head, and I remembered that he was the fellow countryman of the leader whom I had offended.
Song Qinian felt hopeless, and at the same time he felt that Huo Qiheng was ruthless. He had found his powerful enemy to fight against him, which was a way to kill him.
He suddenly opened his eyes and said word by word: "Have you gone to the prison to question Zhou Hongfeng?"
"Also, Hong Jiasheng, these people are pawns in Huo Yan's case, instigated by Huo Yan."
…
The middle-aged officer was caught off guard by Song Qinian's sudden words. Chief Huo did not explain the entire case.
He only asked Song Qinian to tell how he took revenge and how he tortured Huo Yan to extract a confession.
Who is Hong Jiasheng? Who is Zhou Hongfeng? And who is Liu Xiang?
Huo Qiheng was eager to overturn the verdict and put Song Qinian to death. He was a little anxious and began to interrogate Song Qinian based only on Huo Yan's overturned confession.
Not to mention that Song Qinian was a veteran who had fought in many battles and solved many espionage cases. Even a rookie would have doubts about this kind of overturning of the case.
Just as the officer interrogating him was stunned, Song Qinian continued, "Huo Yan's case has been filed and he has served his sentence."
"I was just investigating the arson case, but I didn't expect it to lead to a series of cases. Chief Huo and I have no grudges, so why would I want to take revenge? I don't dare to do that even if I want to."
…
Song Qinian was determined to do it. No matter who was in front of him, he wanted to say everything in his heart, even if it meant death.
"Don't talk about other things. Tell me how you tortured Huo Yan to extract a confession."
The middle-aged officer who was interrogating Song Qinian suddenly felt that the interrogation was being led by Song Qinian, this master.
He didn't care about the whole story of the case, nor did he care whether it was an arson case. As long as Song Qinian admitted to being tortured, he would just take revenge.
Song Qinian found that he had talked too much and was a little tired. His lungs began to rebel and he coughed continuously.
The doctor was standing at the door and was about to examine Song Qinian when he suddenly heard Song Qinian coughing violently. He pushed aside the guarding little warrior and rushed into the ward.
He turned to the person who was interrogating Song Qinian and said, "Comrade, you have asked enough questions. Come back tomorrow."
"Song Qinian's injuries were very serious. His lungs were injured and his ribs were cut. Do you know why he was injured? How did his lungs get injured?"
The middle-aged officer who interrogated Song Qinian shook his head when the doctor asked him, and whispered: "It is the duty of soldiers to carry out orders. How would I know how Song Qinian was hospitalized?"
"It's not surprising that you don't know. Hospitals are places to save lives and heal the wounded. Even if you want to try the case, you have to be humane. It won't be too late to wait for Song Qinian to recover and be discharged from the hospital."
The doctor spoke to the middle-aged military officer who was interrogating Song Qinian in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
He is not afraid of those people's revenge. With a good family background, who should he be afraid of?
"I listened to the doctor. Today's interrogation ends here. This is my opinion. The final decision lies with the chief."
The military officer who interrogated Song Qinian suddenly felt that he was being used. At the very least, if he wanted to overturn the verdict, he had to make the original case known to himself.
Even if it is a false case, we still need to know where the mistake is.
This officer still had some conscience. He suddenly felt that he was being betrayed by his fellow villager, but he even helped him count the money.
But he couldn't offend his fellow countrymen, and even more so Huo Qiheng. He felt that he was being squeezed out and was extremely unhappy.
He could only wait and see, and take one step at a time. With this in mind, he could not be cruel to the seriously ill Song Qinian.
As he walked out of the ward, he was met by his orderly. He was not in the mood to talk to him.
Suddenly, he remembered, and asked the orderly to find out what illness Song Qinian had that caused him to be hospitalized.
He turned his head and asked calmly, "Have you found out what disease Song Qinian has?"
"Reporting to the commander, Commander Song's stomach was blown open while fighting on the front line. He was treated in a field hospital and returned to Beijing after recovering. Later, he developed a persistent cough and was taken to the hospital for a checkup, where a shrapnel fragment was found in his lung.
…
The orderly told the middle-aged officer the results of the investigation.
Moreover, he also told the middle-aged officer about the series of cases.
The key points are how Bai Wei was buried in the sea of fire and how she was rescued by Song Qinian who had just returned to Beijing.
The middle-aged officer was stunned after hearing what he heard. He then realized the whole story and broke out in a cold sweat.
Especially when he heard that Huo Qiheng's mother went to the hospital to make trouble and Chief of Staff Lei came to rescue her, he felt even more guilty.
Suddenly, I felt as if I was caught in an invisible vortex. If I defeated Song Qinian, who would I offend?
The Huo family has people in Kyoto, so the Song family will never meet Justice Bao!
It’s terrifying to think about it.
He kind of hates his fellow villagers.
Bai Wei stood on the busy street holding Huo Yan's confession printed out from the police station, wondering where to go now.
A gust of wind passed by her eyes, and her mind suddenly became clear. She wanted to go to the prison and meet the prison warden, Lao Xu.
Old Xu was a witness. He saw Huo Qiheng taking Huo Yan away, and he was also the one who released her.
On second thought, without the confidence, how could Old Xu see me?
The police chief, Chief Hao, is familiar with the case and is a good person. At least he has the qualities of a soldier and a sense of justice.
She knew nothing about Lao Xu.
No matter what kind of person Lao Xu is, he must go to prison.
