Liao Guoming recounted all the big and small things that happened to him during his days in the Finance Department.
"Okay, I understand. We'll let you know if there's any progress."
"No, Public Security Comrade, I have confessed everything. Can't you let me go?" Liao Guoming pleaded.
"No, we have to wait until everything is fully investigated."
In this way, Liao Guoming was taken back to the detention room.
Accountant Liu and the factory director were quickly escorted back.
At first, the two of them were stubborn and refused to reveal a single word.
"I've already said I didn't embezzle any money. If you don't believe me, you can check the account books."
Accountant Liu was confident that he could get away with it. Firstly, the account books were well hidden, and secondly, he had Liao Guoming as the scapegoat.
But when he saw the account books thrown out by the police, Accountant Liu's face turned pale.
"So what's going on with these?"
The police officer who was interrogating him leaned back, stretched his legs, and spoke lazily.
All the evidence of corruption by Accountant Liu and the factory director has been dug up, and the current interrogation is just a formality.
"I...I don't know, maybe someone wants to frame me?"
"Frame you? What's there about you that's worth someone going to all that trouble to plot against you? Also, why did you buy a boat ticket to the port city? Without a government-issued pass, what you're doing is called illegal immigration, understand?"
Accountant Liu was speechless when asked.
It took him a long time to find his voice.
"I don't know. Maybe someone is jealous that I can work as an accountant in a textile factory. Comrade Public Security, I am really wronged."
"But your brother-in-law has confessed everything. He said he didn't understand these financial matters and that you were the one who did all the cheating. Look, these are the evidence."
The police officer in charge of the interrogation put the two latest fraudulent transactions in front of Accountant Liu.
Accountant Liu saw that the situation could not be resolved, so he began to talk nonsense, trying to shirk his responsibility.
"All of this was ordered by my brother-in-law. As you know, my brother-in-law is the factory director. As one of his subordinates, I naturally have to do whatever he says. After all, my family, young and old, all rely on my salary to support them."
"are you sure?"
"Sure, you can check."
"What about the money? Where did it go?"
"I don't know. Anyway, after passing through my hands, it went to my brother-in-law, and I guess he spent it himself. You don't know that during the famine, my brother-in-law's family could have white rice and braised pork every meal. My nephew is only five years old and already weighs 60 kilograms. You can imagine how good the food in his family is.
Where does the money for rice and meat come from? It's all from greed. At best, I'm just a tool for my brother-in-law to make money."
"Okay, we got it, take them away."
Soon the factory manager was brought up.
When they passed each other, there was a spark of resentment in their eyes.
"Your brother-in-law has confessed everything. He said it was all your instructions."
"Bullshit! I'm not in charge of finance. How would I know how to issue fake invoices or inflate amounts? He was the one who did it."
The factory manager didn't expect Accountant Liu to change sides so quickly.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have brought him to the factory. It's all his wife's fault. She's always whispering in his ear all day long.
"But your brother-in-law said that you forced him to do it. He explained everything clearly, including which orders were taken and how much money was embezzled. These are the account books, and they clearly have your signature and official seal on them."
The factory director's eyes were grim, as if he wanted to see through the account books.
I didn't expect that I would end up being defeated by my own family.
The money embezzled by these people was divided equally between the two of them. Why do you put all the blame on yourself?
"I don't know. He's my brother-in-law. He has free rein in my office, so stealing my official seal would be easy for him. Oh, and he has a subordinate named Liao Guoming who can imitate other people's signatures to the point of being indistinguishable from the real thing.
A few days ago, Liao Guoming committed a principled offense, but my brother-in-law still resolutely protected him. Perhaps those so-called signatures of mine were the work of the two of them.
The factory director no longer cared about the family relationship and blamed all the mistakes on Accountant Liu, and belittled him as worthless.
"Comrade Public Security, I can guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with me. At most, I was coerced."
"We will carefully consider what you said. Your promise is not convincing to us. Take him away."
After the interrogation, the police officers all breathed a sigh of relief.
Before they could ask anything, the two of them started fighting each other.
The two of them wanted to clear themselves from this matter, but who would have thought that they would be exposed by the other party.
After several rounds of interrogation, Accountant Liu and the factory director finally couldn't bear it anymore and confessed everything.
With a sum of over 100,000 yuan involved, the punishment faced by the two is extremely severe, especially at this time when work style is being severely punished.
Moreover, part of the embezzled money has been spent and cannot be fully recovered.
Although Liao Guoming was not responsible for much of the case, he could not escape blame and was bound to spend a year in prison.
Liao's family~
When Liao Dahai and Meihua learned that Liao Guoming had been arrested, they couldn't wait to set off firecrackers to celebrate.
"Stepmother, is this house going to be built yet?"
Looking at the small house in the yard that was about to be completed, Liao Dahai felt a little distressed.
If only he had been caught earlier, he wouldn’t have had to spend money on building the house.
"It's okay. It's already built. At worst, it can be used as a kitchen."
Now we cook in the thatched shed in the yard.
It's difficult to start a fire if it's a little windy or rainy.
"Yeah, wait a minute. I'll get some goodies so we can celebrate tonight."
Liao Dahai went straight to Santong's house.
He and Santong caught a few small fish today.
