Chapter 186 The Critical Moment
Discipline Inspection Commission meeting room.
This meeting took place via a multi-party video call.
A joint meeting of the SiS Public Security Department, SiS Discipline Inspection Commission, Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau, and Jiangcheng Discipline Inspection Commission.
On the huge projection screen was the progress of the case that had been interrogated by the Four S Discipline Inspection Commission and the Public Security Bureau for two consecutive days.
Director Meng T spoke during the video: "At present, all the main personnel involved in the case have been arrested. The Public Security Department has conducted investigations and interrogations based on the confessions of some criminal suspects. The following is a specific list of those involved in the case, as well as the public and government officials involved."
As Meng T finished speaking, a neatly arranged list appeared on the screen.
Lin Zhizhou's gaze fell directly on the two names at the top of the list.
Shuicheng Municipal Party Committee Secretary: Lai Guoliang.
Director B of the Organization Department of S Association: Yin Xiaosong.
The man clenched his fists and placed them against his chin, his dark eyes deep in thought.
After a brief silence.
He asked, "How are the investigations of Lai Guoliang and Yin Xiaosong going?"
The communication screen cuts to the Four S Discipline Inspection Committee.
The person responsible for the speech was Wu Lei, secretary of the 4S Discipline Inspection Commission.
He said: "The current progress of the investigation of Lai Guoliang and Yin Xiaosong is not very ideal. If they insist on not giving in, the only charges they can be investigated for are suspected crimes of organizing and introducing DY."
As soon as Wu Lei finished speaking, the screen displayed the information and interrogation details of Lai Guoliang and Yin Xiaosong.
Lin Zhizhou changed his mind and asked, "Where is the family member's information?"
The next second, Lai Guoliang's personal information and family information, along with an introduction, popped up on the big screen.
"Lai Guoliang's wife has no social work experience, so there is currently no evidence that she was involved. The couple had a son during their marriage, who has suffered from congenital heart disease since childhood."
The screen shows a photo of Lai Guoliang's son, a recent photo taken in the hospital. He is about 30 years old, very thin and listless.
Lin Zhizhou looked at the photo and said, "How is Lai Guoliang's son doing now?"
Wu Lei replied: "The situation is getting worse and worse. According to Lai Guoliang's wife, the situation was milder when he was a child, but as he got older, the situation became increasingly serious. He had no regularity and could experience fainting spells, angina pectoris and other symptoms at any time. He relied on medication all year round. This is also the reason why Lai Guoliang's wife did not return to work."
"With Lai Guoliang under investigation, the Lai family has lost its pillar."
Lin Zhizhou: "Is there any case history of Lai Guoliang's son?"
"Yes." Then the case report and hospital diagnosis appeared on the screen.
Lin Zhizhou read it carefully and said, "Send me a copy of this case report."
A minute later, Lin Zhizhou received the case and forwarded it directly to Ms. Zhou. He remembered that the medical department under Zhengli Group had authoritative experts in this field.
He got up and went outside the meeting room to call Ms. Zhou in person.
Secretary Yang and Liu Tian continued their meeting in the conference room, reporting on the current progress of the Jiangcheng case.
Lin Zhizhou's call lasted half an hour, and within half an hour, Lai Guoliang's son's information was sent to the overseas medical expert team managed by Zhengli Group.
The response from the other side was that they were confident that Lai Guoliang's son could recover to 70% of his condition, live at least 20 years longer, and live like a normal person, but he would not be able to do heavy work.
The expert team studied his current diagnosis and treatment plan. If he is treated according to the original plan, there is almost no chance of improvement. His health will get worse and worse, and he will die in five years at most.
After receiving an accurate answer, Lin Zhizhou returned to the office.
He spoke directly: "Can we interrogate Lai Guoliang via video?"
"This?" Wu Lei paused for a few seconds and then said, "Team Leader Lin, please wait a moment. Let's discuss this over here."
The conference room fell silent.
While waiting, Lin Zhizhou's mind was full of thoughts. Let's ignore Yin Xiaosong for the time being. Lai Guoliang has a weak point and is easy to manipulate. Zhengli Group can be responsible for his son's medical expenses, and he must give a corresponding bargaining chip between his son and Gao Bolin.
How to choose?
I believe Lai Guoliang knows what to choose. Besides, one of the reasons why he embarked on this path in the first place was probably because of his son.
Are you afraid that he has other lovers and illegitimate children?
Think about this.
Before the other party could reply, Lin Zhizhou spoke first to break the silence: "Does Lai Guoliang have other lovers or illegitimate children?"
Wu Lei looked through the paper documents on the table and confirmed that they were correct. He replied: "No, Lai Guoliang has asthenospermia, which makes it difficult for him to have children. This son was conceived through in vitro fertilization, so he loves him very much."
"Okay, I understand."
After discussing it, Wu Lei replied to Lin Zhizhou: "Team Leader Lin, this is how it is. Video interrogations are always inadequate. If Team Leader Lin needs an interrogation, he can only come to the 4S Discipline Inspection Committee in person."
"Okay, I got it."
After more than ten minutes, the first video conference on the DY task force's cross-city joint operation ended.
Lin Zhizhou walked towards Yang Guicheng and said, "Secretary Yang, go to 4S tonight to question Lai Guoliang."
Yang Guicheng nodded solemnly and asked, "Shall we set off immediately?"
When he asked, Lin Zhizhou's expression faltered, and he remembered that he had made an appointment with the young woman in the afternoon to have dinner with her.
The man stretched out his hand and rubbed his brow. After a few breaths, he said, "In an hour."
"Okay." Yang Guicheng got the answer and immediately went to prepare the case materials.
After Lin Zhizhou got in the car, he called the young woman.
Shen Tinglan was sleeping soundly in the bedroom.
She was still dreaming when Lin Zhizhou called, and was suddenly interrupted by the shrill ringtone.
I weakly lifted my eyelids to take a quick look, then answered the phone: "Hello?"
"Sui Sui, are you still sleeping? I'm here to pick you up for dinner. Something happened and we only have an hour." Lin Zhizhou explained.
"Oh, so, you're in such a hurry. Why don't you just go ahead and do your work? We can eat another day."
"I'll be downstairs at the hotel soon. I must do what I promised you."
Shen Tinglan sat up from the bed. On the one hand, she felt sorry for the big boss, and on the other hand, she felt sweet. No matter how busy the big boss was, he would never go back on his word once he promised her.
She curled her lips and replied softly: "I know, I'll go downstairs right away, you don't have to come up."
Lin Zhizhou replied with a "OK".
Shen Tinglan opened the wardrobe and casually picked up a beige skirt and put it on, without even having time to tie her hair.
Somewhat casual yet with a sense of laziness and spontaneity.
It took her five minutes to get dressed and go downstairs. As soon as she got downstairs, she saw Lin Zhizhou's car parked in front of the hotel.
After she got in the car and fastened her seat belt, she saw that Lin Zhizhou looked tired and asked softly, "Have you encountered any major cases recently?"
The big boss shook her hand and smiled as usual: "It is, it is a critical moment."
The car has started, and Shen Tinglan moved closer to his seat: "Will you drive yourself later?"
Lin Zhizhou turned his head and glanced at her seriously. Perhaps he ran downstairs too fast, his cheeks were flushed, his lips were beautifully pouting, and there was a hint of worry in his clear and moist eyes. After a second, the man's gaze fell on the road ahead again.
He said calmly, "Drive yourself. After dinner, go meet up with Secretary Yang first. We need to get to 4S overnight."
When Shen Tinglan heard this, she thought to herself, how nice it would be if today was Saturday, so she could accompany him, drive him, and not let him be so tired.
Secretary Chen went to Yue County for an inspection and it is unknown when it will end.
Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Lin Zhizhou reached out his right hand from the steering wheel and took her hand: "Sui Sui, you'll have more time after this case is over-"
Shen Tinglan interrupted him: "Aren't you taking the same car with Secretary Yang and the others? You must be tired driving by yourself, and it's late at night."
Lin Zhizhou smiled faintly: "I'm used to it. This time it was a sudden decision. The Discipline Inspection Commission will go with a few people to assist. It's an inspection, so it's inevitable that there will be a shortage of personnel. Most importantly, I'm used to driving my own car."
Shen Tinglan began to feel conflicted again, the contradiction on her rosy cheeks was obvious, the car had already arrived at the villa, because of something today, Lin Zhizhou drove faster than usual.
After the car stopped, Shen Tinglan leaned over and said tentatively: “How about I take a leave, I will go with you today, and I will drive you?”
Lin Zhizhou unbuckled her seat belt and said, "That's not necessary. I don't want you to stay up late." He lowered his head to look at her, and a flash of depression and loss crossed the little woman's face.
Her lips were slightly pursed, the corners of her eyes drooped, and her voice was soft: "Okay then."
Lin Zhizhou's heart softened as he watched her. He put his arm around her waist and brought her out with one arm. He lowered his neck and tilted his head to look into her eyes. He could still see the loss in them that she had not yet recovered.
The big boss changed his mind instantly, and said in a low and pleasant voice, "If you don't mind your skin getting bad from staying up late, I'd be happy to have you accompany me."
