Chapter 62 The First Interrogation

The moment I was taken into the car, I stood north by the car, held the door with my hand, and looked back at the funeral home.

The white butterfly flapped its wings and flew upwards, crossed the roof of the funeral home, flew into the sky, and merged with the gray sky.

The sky was still snowing, to be precise, it was mixed with the dust of snow. They fell on the north face, melted, and then formed gray marks. His face looked like a clown.

In just a few seconds, a smile appeared on his face, which was very complicated. In the blink of an eye, a tear fell to the ground and fell into the snow nest mixed with sewage and mud.

Such a sky and such a land are really not exciting.

Zhao Qingdong, Yu Chongming and others turned their heads and didn't want to have any interaction with this person anymore, so they couldn't even look at him. He was just a madman! A clown!

They were obviously self-indulgent. Xiangbei didn't seem to have these people in his eyes. He was looking at a place that was far away and could only see with his heart.

Anger or calmness is love.

"Damn it, when did this kid come to the funeral home? Why didn't he notice it at all? He even disguised himself as a cleaner. He was so capable that he thought he was an agent oo7? Why didn't he film "Mission Impossible"?!" Yu Chongming said angrily.

"Boss, 'oo7' and "Mission Impossible" are not the same movie..." A reporter interrupted.

"You know a lot! Why are you scared when you start?" Yu Chongming retorted him back.

He was not the only one who was surprised, and everyone was incredible about Xiangbei's abnormal behavior. Everyone was already used to his previous character - gentle and elegant, well-educated - this is what a reporter should look like. Now this literati has become a strong man, and a wise man, which is difficult for a moment to accept.

Zhao Qingdong was more concerned about this. He wanted to make an assessment of his actions in the morning. Everything was being calculated, and the only thing that was not calculated was that so many reporters would appear.

No one knew that Xiangbei had visited the funeral home several times before the ashes. He had already known the space structure, staffing, commuting and off hours here, and he had even calculated how to enter and leave. The only thing that had not been calculated was that so many police officers would appear.

Among all the people, there was only one person who was calculated - Qu Changguo. Because this was his situation.

The ceremony started at 9 a.m. Xiangbei disguised himself as a cleaner and entered the funeral home more than an hour in advance. The cleaners here are all labor dispatches, with large personnel flowing, and they are not familiar with each other. In this place where people are crowded with dead people, there are not more people, and there are not less people.

The entire ashes were placed in the north. He stood at the end of the corridor from a distance, lowered his head to sweep the floor, cleaned the wall of the ashes, and participated in the ceremony in a special way.

The moment Zhou Xuecen took the urn, the broom in Xiangbei's hand slowly fell down, staring at the small box with his eyes tightly, and tears instantly poured out. He seemed to be standing next to Zhou Xuecen, touching the box with her, and touching the photo, which contained his own son.

At that moment, he had an impulse. He wanted to throw down the things in his hand, rushed up and hugged the urn, and talk to his son again. Last time he was in the hospital, he had a lot of things and didn't have time to talk to his child. At that time, Nuoyi was still alive and could still open his eyes to see his father's appearance. But now, he was facing only a small box, and he didn't know if he could say anything that he hadn't said yet.

The appearance of Zhao Qingdong, Yu Chongming and others calmed down Xiangbei. He understood what he should do. He swallowed the tears in his eyes and nose, and the taste was a bit salty.

The most terrifying thing about a man is that his tears can be retracted and released. He has changed a lot these days, but the only thing that remains unchanged is his rationality.

After leaving the ashes, everyone quietly leaned over to the north. The ceremony just now made the ground a little dirty. He cleaned the paper scraps and footprints on the ground, and slowly moved to the urn.

That's right, this small grid belongs to Nuoyi, and he knew the photo above. Xiangbei put his face on it, kissed the photo, and then put the baffle of the small grid on his side. It was a stone slab. The temperature in the corridor was not high, and the stone slab felt like ice.

He closed his eyes, as if he was back to that winter. The family was covered with thick quilts. Nuoyi lay between him and Zhou Xuechen, shouting that he would build the quilt into a tent and then cover himself. He hugged Nuoyi tightly, as if he was hugging happiness.

Children of this age have just ushered in the first rebellious period of their lives. They always fight with their parents on weekdays, which makes them very troubled. Alas! I really can’t do anything about you. Xiangbei thought about it and laughed, with tears flowing across his cheeks.

The slab is very cold and the tears are very hot.

Xiangbei wanted to keep doing this. However, time was short and he still had important things to do. The battle of dignity at the entrance of the funeral home made him feel refreshed. On the way from the funeral home to the Hedong Municipal Public Security Bureau, Xiangbei kept savoring. He leaned his head on the back of the seat and breathed calmly, as if he was reborn.

Luo Yuchen looked at Xiangbei from the rearview mirror, decadent, haggard, and his head was in a mess, and he couldn't help but feel pity for him. This is a person of the same age as him, and even his work and family are many similarities, but Xiangbei has experienced more joys, sorrows, and warmth and coldness than him. It's really fate that makes people!

Xiangbei was taken to the police station, completed the process, and was taken to the interrogation room.

Now that the deadline set by the city leaders is getting closer, no one dares to slack off. Xiangbei was arrested, at least he can make the case clear in this week, which can be considered an explanation for the leader.

The interrogation room looked inconspicuous, the room was empty, and blue anti-collision soft bags were installed on the walls around it. In the middle of the interrogation room, there was a special chair, which looked like metal material, with four legs fixed to the ground, and the two armrests of the chair were a baffle.

The two policemen would sit in a chair, hold the baffle, sit down to the north, and look at the interrogation room. They usually see this kind of scene in movies, but now they have the opportunity to be there and experience it. It's really good. However, the interrogation room does not seem to be as tall as they imagined.

Just ahead of the north, there were two policemen sitting, one of whom was Luo Yuchen.

"Xiangbei, I finally saw you again. Alas, I really feel like I met too late." Luo Yuchen said at the beginning.

"Is that so? How much do you miss me?" Xiangbei teased.

Luo Yuchen stood up from his seat, walked to Xiangbei, looked him carefully, and suddenly asked after a long period of silence: "Are you a sports student?"

"That's right."

“What kind of expertise?”

"You don't know? I thought you had already made my research clear."

"Your resume is blank." Luo Yuchen was very frank.

"Do you have to say it?" Xiangbei looked embarrassed, as if there was something unspeakable.

"You can not treat this issue as interrogation, but as a chat between friends." Luo Yuchen said.

Xiangbei smiled and pointed to his seat: "Friend? Haha, do you have such a friend? However, I am still unwilling to answer this question, which is a bit embarrassing."

"Then I won't say it," Luo Yuchen turned around, returned to his seat, and his expression returned to his seriousness. "The interrogation began. Xiao Li, prepare for the transcript..."

"I won't answer the first question, it seems too insincere," Xiangbei interrupted Luo Yuchen and hesitated for a while, "My sports specialty is aerobics..."

After saying this, the air condensed, and suddenly burst into laughter. Looking north, Luo Yuchen and Xiao Li were already so happy that they were leaning back and forth. Xiang north lowered their heads awkwardly.

"Hahahaha, aerobics, haha. Oh my god, I'm so laughing to death." Luo Yuchen almost burst into laughter. The reason why he asked him this question was that Xiangbei's anti-reconnaissance ability was so good, like professional training, so he was very curious about his specialty. As a result, Luo Yuchen only guessed the beginning, but not the end. This answer tests human IQ too much.

"Hey, I know why I'm not willing to answer this question," Xiangbei lowered his head, "I have never mentioned my expertise to anyone since I started working."

"Oh my god, I'm laughing to death. No, let me laugh for a while." Luo Yuchen tried hard to control it, but still couldn't control it.

Xiangbei stood there in a daze, watching the two of them laugh. After a while, the two gradually returned to normal.

"Don't laugh anymore, don't laugh anymore." Luo Yuchen calmed down his emotions, "We talk about serious business."

"Xiangbei, we received a call from the police that you are suspected of several cases, so you need to be interrogated." Luo Yuchen took out a stack of reporting materials and looked through them page by page. "There are a few details of the case I want to verify with you again. I hope you will cooperate actively and answer our questions seriously."

“I want to know who reported the case?”

"Beijiang Evening Newspaper, report that you are using the name of your unit and use your knowledge to trade with the interviewees and interview units, and are suspected of illegal acts such as extortion, fraud, and bribery."

"I understand..." Xiangbei sneered. It was originally a report letter online, but the newspaper took the initiative to pick it up. It was indeed a chess and a chess game. This is a plan.

Luo Yuchen: "I have sorted out a few cases here, and you must answer my questions truthfully. In November 2011, did you have contact with five companies including Hedong Steel, Beifang Heavy Industry, and Beidou Technology during the launch of the magazine "Beijiang Evening News Annual" sponsored by Beijiang Evening News?"

Xiangbei: "There have been. These companies I met in interviews and I have reported them."

Luo Yuchen: "Have you ever sold the Beijiang Evening News Annual" to them?"

Xiangbei: "The newspaper has regulations that we cannot do marketing at work. I just recommended the Beijiang Evening News Annual Publication to them according to the newspaper's arrangements."

Luo Yuchen: "That means you have sold this newspaper."

Xiangbei: "I recommend it according to the newspaper's deployment"

Luo Yuchen: "How many copies did these companies order in total?"

Xiangbei thought for a while and said, "There should be more than 1oooo book in total. It's too long. I have forgotten the specific number."

“How much is the total amount?”

"The retail price is 32o yuan per serving, and it should be more than 30,000 yuan." Xiangbei answered.

Luo Yuchen: "You are talking about the retail price, but according to what we know, you later returned part of the amount."

Xiangbei: "Yes, some corporate executives made suggestions. Later, according to their suggestions, the newspaper decided to change the retail price to a wholesale price, which was 20 yuan cheaper per book."

Luo Yuchen: "In this way, there will be an additional 20,000 yuan?"

"Yes..." Xiangbei did not think.

Luo Yuchen: "But from the public account, the price was still gone. The more than 20,000 yuan later was returned to relevant personnel from these companies. In other words, the money was used to reward those who promoted the ordering of newspapers."

Xiangbei: "Reward? I don't know about this. I just returned the money to them according to the contract I modified later."

Luo Yuchen: "According to the report, you are involved in bribery."

Hearing the word "bribery", Xiangbei suddenly became excited, "Brief? Impossible! I have never participated in this money! I just made a connection between them. As for how to transfer funds, I have never participated!"

Luo Yuchen: "Okay, we will investigate whether you have bribed me clearly. Do you have no objection to the entire factual process?"

Xiangbei: "Well, it's basically right."

"There is another case," Luo Yuchen took out another piece of material, "In February 2012, was there a staff member in the marketing department of Beijiang Evening News asking you for help, hoping that you can help him complete the newspaper advertising investment task?"

"Many people have experienced this situation, after all, we have our own advantages. It is inevitable to attract advertising." Xiangbei did not avoid it.

"Mingzhu Pharmaceutical, you should know." Luo Yuchen asked.

"I know, this is a famous pharmaceutical company in Hedong City."

"Have you interviewed this company?"

Think north: "Yes, I have interviewed about ten times since I started working, and it is considered a relatively familiar relationship."

"Later, you helped your colleagues assign advertising tasks to them? Oh, in your words, it is called advertising."

"It's not a levy. I once recommended my colleagues to Mingzhu Pharmaceutical."

"This company reported that you had extortion. That is to say, you asked the other party to purchase the advertising page on the grounds of reporting, which involved an amount of 50,000 yuan."

"I..." Xiangbei was speechless when asked, "This was agreed upon by both sides at that time. If there is no forced buying and selling, how can I extort it? Besides, the newspaper has advertising tasks, and although it has nothing to do with our reporters, this is an unwritten rule by the newspaper for many years. Why does it count on me?"

"Yangbei, don't be excited," Luo Yuchen said, holding up the materials in his hand, "I still have a bunch of materials here to reflect your problems. If you are excited so early, you may not be able to bear it later."

Xiangbei had expected this situation, but what he couldn't accept was that because the incident suddenly, he was unprepared and could not refute these reporting materials at all. Now, he finally understood what it means to be unable to defend, not to mention that he had zero precautions at that time!
