"Zhou Qi, we have the evidence. Now we are giving you a chance to confess and receive leniency. But if you dare to hide even a little bit of information, what chance do you have?"
Several interrogators sat there with imposing figures, their sharp eyes fixed on him as if trying to see into his heart. Zhou Qi trembled all over.
He couldn't believe, nor did he want to believe, that his youngest son had been arrested.
"Officer, are you mistaken? My son isn't short of money. No, no, no, what I mean is that he's been raised by the Party since he was little, and he always puts the interests of the country first. He would never do anything to harm the national interest. Even when he went to the countryside, it was in response to the national call to help build up the rural areas..."
Zhou Qi waved his hands to show his disbelief. The interrogator glanced at him and gave a sarcastic smirk.
"So what did you do?"
“I am me, and my son is different from me. I made mistakes, but he is a good young man.”
Zhou Qi lunged forward, grabbing the table in vain, anxiously explaining to the interrogators, but no one paid any attention. After a while, they finally looked up and stared directly into his eyes.
"Who is she? What is your relationship with her? What role do your family members play in this?"
Zhou Qi swallowed hard, then lowered his head again, his heart churning with inner turmoil.
For over 20 years, he never reported Chen Hongxia and even helped her cover up everything; he was an accomplice.
He's only embezzled a little money now, at most he'll be sent to a farm for a few years of labor reform. But if he gets involved with Chen Hongxia, and if he gets a light sentence, he'll be stuck on the farm for the rest of his life.
If the sentence is too heavy, he might just get shot and be done with it.
He was scared.
He doesn't want to die.
"I……"
The interrogators interrupted him and flipped through a few pages of documents.
"After our investigation, we found that you were the one who handled Chen Fangyang's case. His wife, Lin Yueyu, was accused of having dealings with unknown foreign forces. We also found letters, and our investigation found that the sender was indeed a member of the Lin family."
Therefore, we have reason to suspect that you used your position to expose the fake Chen Hongxia, who is actually the real contact person for the Lin family, right?
The Lin family fled, but some of the thousands of members of the family remained in the country.
In addition, quite a few people have seen them, so it's only a matter of time before we can find them.
"say!"
Zhou Qi was lost in thought when he heard those words, but a loud shout from the interrogator pulled him back to reality, and he hunched over completely, his whole body filled with fear.
It turns out that this wasn't something he could hide just because he wanted to.
"We're not here to waste time with you. We already have the evidence. You need to think about whether you want to talk or wait for us to investigate."
Zhou Qi's hands were trembling. He shouldn't have gotten involved in their affairs in the first place, greedy for that money.
Since he can't escape now, he has to get his son out. Smuggling and getting involved in espionage are two completely different things, and their natures are even more different.
If he had to eat bullets, he could eat them all by himself; it would be retribution for all these years. But his son really doesn't know.
"Her name is not Chen Hongxia, her surname is Lin, her name is Lin Yingyu, and she is the daughter of the Lin family."
It is true.
"Officer, only I know about this. My son and the others don't know anything about it. He has absolutely nothing to do with this. Please, please release him."
The interrogators exchanged glances, their eyes gleaming; they were all right.
"What is her purpose in staying in the country? What messages did you pass on to her?"
