“Director Zheng, these two revolutionaries have falsely accused me of possessing anti-government books. I suspect they are enemy agents. I request the police to investigate and clear my name,” Li Xiyue said.
Are they enemy agents?
Everyone was taken aback.
However, their actions are indeed suspicious; they might actually be enemy agents.
Zheng Shijie said, "Comrade Li, rest assured, we will definitely investigate thoroughly and clear your name."
Wang Gong'an panicked, "Chief, the comrades from the Revolutionary Committee did indeed find anti-government books at Li Xiyue's residence..."
"Shut up!" Zheng Shijie shouted. "Comrade Li is a good comrade who once helped the railway police catch enemy agents. She was commended by the county party committee leaders and is also Commander Chu's girlfriend. She is a military dependent. How could she possibly collect anti-Japanese books?"
“Those two books are not mine. I was out of the emergency room when the search was conducted, so I wasn’t at the scene. I suspect they put them there secretly to frame me,” Li Xiyue said, pointing at Zhang Weibing.
Zhang Weibing sensed that the situation was not good; once the label of "enemy spy" was attached to him, it would be difficult for him to extricate himself.
The other revolutionary was not stupid either. He knew that the current situation was unfavorable to him and that he might be implicated by Zhang Weibing. In order to protect himself, he immediately turned against him, saying, "Director Zheng, those two books did not belong to Comrade Li Xiyue. Zhang Weibing secretly placed them at Comrade Li's residence to frame her."
"You, you're talking nonsense!" Zhang Weibing was both anxious and angry, not expecting his comrade to betray him. "I could have said that you took bribes and were trying to frame Li Xiyue."
"You're talking nonsense. It's clearly because you have an old grudge against Comrade Li and want to take this opportunity to get revenge on him. It has nothing to do with me."
Zhang Weibing gritted his teeth and shouted, "Shut up!"
"Director Zheng, Zhang Weibing is Zhang Yao's younger brother. His sister's family got into trouble because of Comrade Li, so he holds a grudge and wants to take revenge on Comrade Li."
Zhang Yao?
Li Xiyue can't remember this person?
When did she have a grudge against someone like that?
Chen Yu suddenly remembered and reminded her, "Lin Hui's mother is named Zhang Yao."
Upon hearing Lin Hui's name, Li Xiyue understood immediately.
"Your sister, Zhang Yao, bribed the police to try to exonerate the murderers. Later, they were found to have committed numerous crimes, which led to their punishment according to the law. Zhang Weibing, you are a comrade of the Revolutionary Committee of the Chinese Communist Party. The power given to you by the Party and the people is to serve the people, not to settle personal scores or abuse your power!"
After saying this, Zheng Shijie shouted outside, "Men, take them back to the police station and investigate them thoroughly to see if they have any other crimes on their record!"
Four police officers immediately entered and took Zhang Weibing and his companion, both of whom were pale-faced, away.
They were certainly guilty of numerous crimes. In the past, because of the protection of the revolutionary party, no one dared to investigate them. But now they had run into Li Xiyue, the police chief, who personally came forward to investigate them. Now even their director could not protect them.
Zheng Shijie then looked at Officer Wang and Officer Chen, "You two are also temporarily suspended from your duties and must go back to accept the investigation!"
The two policemen were filled with remorse. They regretted not helping Zhang Weibing; now they were being implicated as well.
They privately accepted a lot of bribes and had business dealings with the revolutionary party; these things can't withstand investigation!
