14. The director's past
The second day after the death of the third leader of Qingjiang Group, the largest enterprise in Qingjiang City, died unexpectedly. This series of cases attracted the attention of the police. On the one hand, the police blocked the news to avoid unnecessary rumors and negative impacts, and on the other hand, they also stepped up the reconnaissance work. Don’t underestimate the work efficiency of the public security personnel. Although many cases seem to be handled very slowly in normal times, once the leaders truly "attention" they will move very quickly.
The police have been notified to try not to disturb the participants from other places. If necessary, they can ask separately. Feng Junzi is the person the police thinks it is necessary to ask separately. The reason is very simple. He did not go back to the hotel to spend the night last night. Many people can prove it.
Feng Junzi was inquired in a hotel room. The police investigators were very kind-hearted. They first apologized for the disturbance, and then said that the inquiry was a routine procedure, and the public security personnel needed to know where he went last night. Two people came to the police, one was a reconnaissance officer of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, and the other was Director Chen of the Township Police Station who cooperated with the investigation. Feng Junzi spent about one tenth of a second to engage in a ideological struggle, and then decided to tell the truth - he had been staying in Zhang Wenqing's dormitory last night.
Director Chen is in his forties and has been working in this area for a long time. He is obviously very familiar with the residents nearby. He was surprised to hear Zhang Wenqing's name and asked: "Have you and Zhang Wenqing been together all night? Have you ever left halfway?"
Feng Junzi: "No, I went to her dormitory at about 8 o'clock in the evening and left at around 7 o'clock in the morning. Someone had seen it when I went there and when I left. Maybe they didn't pay much attention at that time, but if you ask other staff in the hospital now, someone should be able to remember it."
At this time, another policeman asked, "We will investigate what you said. What do you do when you stay in the dormitory of the man named Zhang Wenqing tonight?"
Feng Junzi lowered his head, with a look of distortion on his face and replied, "I came to the mining area this time and occasionally met this nurse. When I saw that I was very close, I would like to find time to have a good chat."
The agent seemed not satisfied with the answer and then asked, "What have you all talked about?"
Before Feng Junzi answered, the director continued, "What are they talking about about other people's private affairs? What can a man and a woman talk about when they close the door at night? I think we don't ask anymore. Let's wait for Mr. Feng to verify the situation and then investigate in depth."
The director seemed to be deliberately returning to Feng Junzi, which surprised Feng Junzi because he had only been here for more than three days and did not know the police station director at all. Even though he was surprised, Feng Junzi remained silent. The two police officers asked Feng Junzi a few other questions and ended the conversation. It seemed that this was indeed a routine investigation. Before leaving, they said to Feng Junzi: "We will verify what you said. If there are any differences, we will come to you again."
The meeting was suspended on this day, but the mining area was more enthusiastic to the participants than before, which made people embarrassed to say anything. It is necessary to introduce the living facilities in the mining area here: Maybe some people are surprised that such an important meeting was not arranged in Qingjiang City but decided to be held in the mining area in the countryside. In fact, the living facilities and entertainment facilities in this mining area are not inferior to the high-end places in Qingjiang City, and may be of higher grade. A number of unique new buildings have appeared in the center of the mining area in recent years, and the surrounding factories and mines still seem dilapidated, and being in it makes people feel like they are entering the intertwined areas of Africa and Europe.
This situation is easy to explain. Coal has become a shortage of materials, and the soaring price has only happened in recent years. After three or four years of regression, this place is still the largest state-owned loss-making enterprise in Qingjiang City. It is heavily in debt and is on the verge of bankruptcy, and the factories and mining facilities are also in ruins. However, it takes less than 30 years from Hedong to Hexi. In just two or three years, Qingjiang Group has jumped from the largest loss-making enterprise in the local area to the largest profit and tax enterprise and the first major export foreign exchange earner. Therefore, in recent years, the mining area has built many new high-end living and entertainment facilities.
After lunch, Feng Junzi walked out of "Europe" and headed towards "Africa". He wanted to go to the Zhang family to take a look, but just a few steps out of the hotel, someone stopped him. Feng Junzi looked back and saw that it was Director Chen of the police station he had met in the morning.
Director Chen took the initiative to come over and say hello: "Teacher Feng, are you going out for a walk?"
Feng Junzi knew that the director would not call him inexplicably and replied, "Yes, just go around casually. Is there anything wrong with Director Chen telling me?"
Director Chen: "We have verified the situation you said in the morning. At least three people in the hospital proved that what you said was the truth. You and Zhang Wenqing had never left her dormitory overnight."
Feng Junzi: "Can this prove it? If someone goes out in the middle of the night, can you also discover it?"
Director Chen smiled and said, "Maybe you don't know people from this small place. You, a big man, entered the dormitory of a single girl, and thought you wouldn't be noticed, but in fact you've been targeted by someone for a long time."
Feng Junzi: "Someone is staring at me in secret?"
Director Chen: "There are many good people. The doctor on duty upstairs opposite, the nurse living in the hospital, and perhaps the single young man who is interested in Zhang Wenqing may be secretly paid attention to it."
Feng Junzi: "Don't they sleep in the middle of the night?"
Director Chen: "Don't say it, there are people who don't sleep in the middle of the night, especially the male doctor on duty on the opposite floor who kept looking at Zhang Wenqing's window."
Feng Junzi: "It's so boring."
Director Chen: "It's really boring, but it may not be a good thing. At least Zhang Wenqing is not suspicious now."
"What?" Feng Junzi asked a little surprised, "Do you have suspected Zhang Wenqing?"
Director Chen: "It's not me, but the police inferred that it was the insider of the hospital who committed the crime and investigated who might have a grudge with Wang Minggao. As a result, Zhang Wenqing was suspected of it. When we talked to you in the morning, Zhang Wenqing was detained at the police station for investigation. Fortunately, you proved that she had been with you last night, otherwise she would not be able to go back now."
Feng Junzi: "Have you let go of people now?"
Director Chen: "After listening to you, I will go to investigate immediately, and immediately release the person after finding out."
"You seem to be very protective of Zhang Wenqing?" Feng Junzi said lightly, and at the same time observed Director Chen's expression from the corner of his eyes.
Director Chen's answer surprised him with a calm answer: "Yes, I want to protect this girl. I don't want her to be involved in such a thing. I owe them a favor to the Zhang family, and I owe his brother Zhang Wenzheng."
Zhang Wenzheng has been dead for a year. Director Chen suddenly said this to make Feng Junzi curious and asked, "Can you tell me what's going on?"
Director Chen: "Let's talk while walking, I'll accompany you to stroll."
The past between Director Chen has been around for almost seven or eight years. At that time, two young men in Zhang Wenzheng were carrying a tractor medicinal material to the city to sell. Zhang Wenzheng happened to be about to enter the city and took their free ride. On the way, he met a policeman. The two suddenly ran away. The police only caught Zhang Wenzheng. It turned out that the batch of medicinal materials and tractors were stolen.
Zhang Wenzheng was unaware of the situation and was imprisoned for theft. At that time, Director Chen, who was responsible for the interrogation and closing of the case, was the ordinary police officer. Later, the two people were arrested for another case, and the matter was investigated clearly. However, Zhang Wen had been living in the prison for more than half a year. Half a year was only exchanged for more than 200 yuan in compensation. Many people were angry for Zhang Wenzheng and asked him to sue the policeman named Chen.
Director Chen was rude and had to close the case in a hurry, but actually left many doubts. If Zhang Wenzheng had bitten him and refused to let go, Director Chen's future would have ended, and he would not have become the director later. However, Zhang Wenzheng was generous: "Police Chen did not intend to wrong me. Tractors and medicinal materials were indeed dirty. I was the only one present at that time. Later, I also learned a lot of legal and technological knowledge in prison. I don't think it would be difficult for him anymore."
In this way, Director Chen escaped, but he always felt sorry for Zhang Wenzheng and always felt that he owed such a favor from the Zhang family.
After hearing Director Chen's memory, Feng Junzi asked: "So that's the case. Now Director Chen won't make a case like this, right?"
Director Chen sighed, "This is a lesson. Besides, the situation was different at that time. At that time, we didn't know what suspicion was to be innocent."
Feng Junzi suddenly remembered another thing, and he asked Director Chen: "You listened to me and went to investigate the matter that night. Didn't Zhang Wenqing himself say it? Or did your questioning skills intentionally not mention this matter to me?"
Director Chen: "I'm also surprised. Zhang Wenqing said nothing. This girl has such a stubborn temper."
Feng Junzi: "That's probably because Director Chen intends to take care of her, otherwise no one would be stubborn in the police station!"
Director Chen seemed to blush a little and replied: "Actually, this is normal. A girl's house is with a man all night, so of course I'm embarrassed to tell others... Teacher Feng, you come from a big city and are also a knowledgeable person. Zhang Wenqing is a good girl. I hope you can treat her well in the future."
Feng Junzi didn't expect Director Chen to say such a paragraph and didn't know how to answer it, so he could only stop it. He changed the topic and said, "The things here are so strange. I remember that when the Daxinganling fire was in Daxinganling, there was a Standing Committee that could not be burned out. Now, in your Qingjiang Coal Mine, there are seminars and boards of directors that will never be separated. In this case, the meeting will continue."
Director Chen: "I don't know anything else, but the production and operation of Qingjiang Coal Mine is very important to the economic work of our city. I have just said that it is the first major export foreign exchange earner in our city. I don't know if Teacher Feng Qing is clear."
Feng Junzi sneered: "Of course I know this kind of thing very well. There is a railway here to Qinhuangdao, from the high-quality anthracite produced here, and from the Qinhuangdao wharf to load ships and go to Japan. After the Japanese bought the coal, they neither burned nor used it, but sealed it with wax, sinking it into the bay in large pieces, becoming their strategic energy reserves. Do you know this? Export foreign exchange-making majors? Humph!"
What Feng Junzi said was obviously beyond the scope of Director Chen's knowledge. He looked at Feng Junzi in surprise, as if he had thought for a long time before saying two inexplicable words: "I deserve it!"
Feng Junzi: "What did you say deserve it?"
Director Chen: "I said the leaders in the mine deserved death. You don't know that almost all the people of my grandfather's generation died at the hands of the Japanese devils... Alas! I won't say it."
After Director Chen left, Feng Junzi stood there alone and pondered. In fact, he knew why Zhang Wenqing didn't say anything, because he and Zhang Wenqing were both suspicious that there was a person related to Wang Minggao's death.
Just last night when he was chatting with Zhang Wenqing, he heard something outside. Feng Junzi opened the door and saw a familiar figure floating into the back door of the inpatient department. Later, he remembered that he had seen this figure before - the girl Zhang Ting he met by the mine that day. Zhang Ting was Zhang Wenzheng's daughter. Since Feng Junzi recognized it, Zhang Wenqing had no reason to not recognize it, but she said at that time that she had seen nothing.
