Bait

Chen Ling took out the lighter and pressed it.

He seldom smokes, he can't smoke a pack a year, and he is not addicted to cigarettes, nor is he used to smoking.

At this moment, he burned one, and the green mist filled the air, making it difficult to see his true face, "I was behind Ni Ying's incident, and Chen Zhiyun's network of influence is very extensive. With his protection, it is not you who can do it." solve."

"After Ni Ying came back, the relationship between me and her was caused by me. I can't solve it so I shouldn't bother." Chen Chongzhou caught the cigarette case he threw out and grabbed one, "Shen Zhen hates it." I, I understand."

Chen Ling held a cigarette in one hand, "She begged me to intervene in this case and find a way to get you."

He pursed his lips, "The people who begged Third Uncle never stopped, you never bought it."

"Yes." Chen Ling glanced at the flickering flames of the cigarette butt, "I only promise her."

Chen Chongzhou was silent.

"You're wronged, I'll get you, you deserve what you deserve, and I will not change my principles." Chen Ling hesitated, and looked at him through the smoke, "What is the attempt to forge the official seal."

"Get away." He was imprisoned in the damp, cold and dull interrogation room for five days in a row, his skin was so pale that there was no blood left, "I found out that Shenghe had a secret account for saving funds, and secretly contacted Fucheng. There were a total of sixteen huge sums of money. With the approval of the finance department, my father held high-level meetings every quarter, and all departments submitted documents and reports. He used the seal of the financial manager to transfer the funds of Shenghe Group to Fucheng, and then transferred them overseas."

Chen Ling was dubious, "Does the finance department know?"

He denied, "I don't know."

"How do you know?"

Chen Chongzhou didn't respond.

"Second brother, you confessed the truth, and it turned out to be a turnaround." Chen Ling's eyes fell on his face, "Shen Zhen entrusted me, I don't want her to be sad, and you don't want to let me down."

For so long, Chen Chongzhou has always had doubts in his heart, but he never asked.

At that time, he raised his eyelids, "The third uncle didn't marry Miss Luo, is it because of me, or is there another reason."

Chen Ling's right hand slowly slid down, "For my own sake."

"Third uncle is not good at lying."

After a moment of stalemate, Chen Ling looked at him, "What do you want to ask?"

Chen Chongzhou laughed, "I don't ask third uncle who the woman is in his heart. If there is no such woman, would third uncle marry Luo Sang?"

"Maybe will."

His smile deepened, "The men in the Chen family have the same taste, it's probably God's will."

Chen Ling dusted off the cigarette ash, and changed the subject without showing any signs of expression, "Chen Zheng used his identity as the financial supervisor to transfer public funds, how did you know about it?"

"I installed monitors in the old house's study room and the finance office."

"Second." Chen Ling frowned, "Without my permission, it will be regarded as illegal wiretapping. The Finance Office involves important commercial secrets. Your wiretapping is suspected of breaking the law."

The man on the other side didn't make a sound.

Chen Ling glanced at the interrogation recorder that was recording, and couldn't wash it this time.

It's not a big problem, after all, it's our own company, so the so-called wiretapping of intelligence, based on the premise of self-defense, will be discretionary, but at least it will take a few days.

He pinched his cigarette, "Have you ever thought of framing Chen Yuan?"

"Third uncle." Chen Chongzhou was as calm as a dead sea, "Father made up his mind to choose a scapegoat, either me or elder brother. I have thought of dragging him into the water, but elder brother has never thought of blocking me Well. The desire for money is enough to destroy all human nature. The third uncle does not love money or power, because you value reputation and power, and you have different plans. It’s not that you have no plans. No one in the world really wants nothing.”

Chen Ling's chest swelled up and down, "You want to be rich and sincere, and you want to take revenge on the elder brother, right?"

He chuckled, "Fucheng and Shenghe, I have never paid much attention to the wealth of the Chen family. Third uncle underestimated me."

"What are you planning?"

Looking at each other, Chen Chongzhou's eyes turned cold inch by inch, but he didn't speak.

Chen Ling suddenly woke up.

The Chen family has always been unfair to He Peiyu's mother and son.

For the grievances and hatreds of the previous generation, at least Chen Chongzhou was not guilty.

He has nothing to do with this chaotic tragedy.

Happily trapped in tragedy.

He tried to escape, but He Peiyu was in Chen's house all day, and under Jiang Rong's oppression, he couldn't escape all day.

He Peiyu's unwillingness, Jiang Rong's defense, and Chen Zheng's hesitation.

The tragedy of the Chen family got bigger and bigger.

Chen Ling got up and turned off the recorder. "You released the news of your mother's death yourself. Think about how it will end. I will try my best to break through with your father."

He went straight to the door, when Chen Chongzhou suddenly stopped him, "Third Uncle."

Chen Ling turned her head.

Against the light, his face became more and more emaciated.

"She entrusted Uncle San to find me, and if she failed, I also entrusted Uncle Third to take care of her."

Like countless sharp silver needles piercing his spine, Chen Ling stiffened suddenly, "What do you mean?"

"Third Uncle conquers father's level, but may not be able to conquer Changfang's level. Aunt Jiang always kills everything. Once father stumbles, Fu Cheng's vitality will be severely damaged, and the old business enemies of the Chen family will take advantage of it. Chen Yuan succeeds as chairman, except for marriage. , there is no other way to revive the group, if he wants to consolidate his position, he can only seek strong help." Chen Chongzhou was imprisoned in the baffle, he turned sideways with difficulty, his arms were scratched and wrinkled under the great friction. Baba's shirt was also torn by the chain, "Chen Yuan under the shackles is not a good man."

Chen Ling took a deep breath, "I..."

"You have a high position and weight, and you have no burden, and the elders of the Chen family dare not suppress you." Chen Chongzhou tried his best, and turned in his direction, "Chen Yuan's marriage was forced by the current situation, and it was not sincere. Aunt Jiang naturally didn't believe him. Abandoning Shen Zhen, she even suspected that Shen Zhen tried to seduce Chen Yuan for me. In order to prevent future troubles, Aunt Jiang will use the black chicken. "

"Even if you go abroad, you can't do it once and for all." He gripped the cold armrest tightly, "Only Third Uncle and Aunt Jiang are afraid of you, so she has no choice but to give up."

Chen Ling's whole body seemed to be floating and sinking in a huge wave, being torn apart by the shaking, and the sky collapsed and the earth sank.

He was dazed for a while, and in the end, he didn't respond.

Coming out of Room 2, Chen Ling leaned against the iron gate, his hands trembling.

For Chen Chongzhou's words.

He took out the cigarette case again, lit it, and looked up at the ceiling.

The old-fashioned tube lights are very harsh.

The shot left him in a trance.

The first half of his military career was also long and lonely.

Like an old movie that hasn't finished showing, frame by frame whizzed by before my eyes.

The cigarette broke off and fell on his knuckles, burning him back to his senses.

"Chen Ting." The team leader greeted him and whispered in a low voice, "Your brother's teeth are really tight, who are you waiting for to save him?"

Chen Ling threw the cigarette butt in the water tank of the trash can, and his shoulders and neck were wet, "Withdraw the original statement, and I will interrogate it myself."

The group leader was happy, "The veterans will go out, one will beat the whole group."

Chen Ling hated this kind of description, "Are you old?"

"You didn't care about your age before." The team leader handed him a bottle of warm mineral water, "Has the old tree bloomed?"

The three standard configurations of middle-aged men's emotional trends: lose weight, wear new clothes, and care about age.

Chen Ling said nothing.

"There is a girl called your third uncle, in her early twenties, surnamed Shen—"

He loosened the button of his uniform, "Are you free?"

The team leader clicked his tongue, "Aren't I curious, and I didn't spread it around. When Teacher Guo was 40 years old, his son was in junior high school, right? You won't have time to get married and have a baby if you go to the front line, and then you will sit in the office to give advice No, no danger. There is only one tail left in this man's golden age, you have to take care of it. I heard from Gu Mi that your old illness has relapsed, your waist is sore and your kidneys are swollen recently, and your urine is frequent and yellow—"

"Don't talk nonsense, I'll transfer you to Cambodia and return to China after ten years of work." Chen Ling was impatient and swiped his card.

The team leader folded his arms and winked at his subordinates, "It's 100% true."

The subordinate stepped forward, "What's the matter?"

The door slammed loudly, and the man's face appeared at the window. The team leader was startled, and shouted at his subordinates, "What are you asking, it's none of your business!"

***

In Room 3, Chen Zheng was resting with his eyes closed.

Chen Ling understood that this old one was the most difficult to deal with.

The tug of war is useless.

To quickly defeat his line of defense.

He turned on the recorder, put down the case file, and cut straight to the point, "Why did Zhang Li report you."

Chen Zheng calmly squinted his eyes, "It's not unusual for a married couple to turn against each other, and the driver was bribed to bite me back."

"What are you going to buy him with, money and shares?" Chen Ling sat down, brushing off the dust from the police pants, "Do you have a relationship between Zhang Li and Jiang Rong?"

Chen Zheng licked his back molars with his tongue, his cheeks puffed up, but he didn't reply.

In fact, it's not just the Chen family, Jiang's family, Zhou's family, including Zheng Ye's family, his wife, the young bodyguard, and the driver are flirting with each other and secretly colluding.

The man is getting older, and there is a group of Yingying and Yanyan outside, and there is very little energy for his wife. At least half of the wealthy couples who are over 40 years old and whose natal family's financial resources are comparable to those of their in-laws, play their own way.

Although it often happens, it is embarrassing after all.

Now that the second house has collapsed, if the long house is exposed again, the inside and outside of the Chen family will be in chaos, and Fucheng's value will also fall to the bottom, no matter how difficult it is to save.

"You must cover up scandals within the family." Chen Zheng said anxiously, "Zhang Li likes your sister-in-law, but Jiang Rong has a sense of proportion and she is loyal to me, so I don't take it seriously. If you pursue it, the rumors will spread. What was originally a wishful thinking relationship was discussed by the outside world, and it was fabricated into an affair between the two parties, which affected the Chen family's innocence."

Chen Ling looked at him, "As far as I know, Jiang Rong is interested."

The man locked in the interrogation chair was silent at first, and then broke out, "What did you see?"

"I have investigated. On the evening of December 12th, Zhang Li went to the hospital to visit He Peiyu. The next day, he exposed your crime at the Chang'an District Bureau." Chen Ling took a sip of water, "Zhang Li approached Jiang Rong, most likely it was acting , He Peiyu is the mastermind behind the scenes."

Chen Zheng's face was grim, "I let the black chicken cripple Zhang Li!" He sat up excitedly, trying to break free from the restraint of the chair.

The policeman at the door saw this and wanted to break in to subdue him, but the group leader stopped him, "Chenting asked to clear the place, he doesn't bother to take care of five big and three rough men, let alone an old man, how can you show off?"

"Boss, Chen Ting is cleared—" the policeman hesitated to speak, "Will he hold his hands high..."

"Fart!" The group leader stared, "You newcomer, do you know what Chen Ting is like?"

The policeman immediately shut up.

The team leader leaned against the wall and tore open the bucket of instant noodles, "Back then, Chen Ting was the deputy director. I just joined the team. He took me to the border to destroy a gang that made counterfeit drugs. His ex-girlfriend Pu Hui was on the Ping County Railway. He was in distress while performing official duties nearby, and the emergency call before he passed out was to him."

The subordinate was startled, "And then?"

"At the beginning, Chen Ting insisted on going undercover at the border, even if Pu Hui wanted to stay, he would make a clean break. He felt ashamed. Even so, he took the overall situation into consideration to prevent our whole team from being exposed. He didn't answer the phone call, and didn't care about Pu Hui's life or death. Later, We fought hard for two days and one night, and successfully completed the business. Chen Ting went to see Pu Hui and asked her to forgive her, but she refused to see him. After half a year, Pu Hui got married."

The team leader unscrewed the hot water machine, watched the surface swell and float up, "Chen Hall will never be stained, he is the most dazzling monument of the Chang'an District Bureau."

In the interrogation room, Chen Zheng straightened his back, "The Chen family treats you well, and your father treats you as his own. Your second brother and I raised you well, Chen Ling, don't be too ungrateful."

"I owe the Chen family's upbringing, and I haven't forgotten it." His face was calm, but full of shock, "The debt you owe is not something I can decide to let you go."

Chen Zheng was stunned.

"You pushed the second child to die for yourself, and He Peiyu was in a hurry. She teamed up with Zhang Li to set up a trap for Jiang Rong to eradicate Chen Yuan. It is you who ruined the reputation of the Chen family! You are unrighteous for your husband and unkind for your father. , Jiang Rong married you for 36 years, He Peiyu has followed you all her life without a name, and you seek to protect yourself, destroy your conscience, sacrifice their only son, and the end of betrayal is your own fault!"

Chen Zheng's body trembled violently.

Under the scorching white light, his eyes turned red, and the next second, Chen Ling slammed the file bag on the table.

"You refuse to accept these evidences, and let me interrogate you. Have you ever thought about the fate you will face? The Chen family is deeply involved in turmoil, and how many eyes outside are monitoring me. I will interrogate you more harshly than anyone else. You want me to be selfish. Are you showing mercy?"

He was sitting at the corner of the table with his long legs bent. Chen Ling was tall and his figure was upright and heroic.

"Are you burying your son and wanting to bury your younger brother?"

Chen Zheng's face was pale and his lips twitched.

After a long while, his shoulders suddenly collapsed, like a puddle of mud.

Chen Ling calmed down and sat down facing him, "April 13, 4, where were you?"

Chen Zheng swallowed, wiped the sweat from his forehead with his collar, and struggled for the last time, "I have no memory."

"Let me remind you." Chen Ling took out a stack of photos from his file and threw them on his chest, "You had dinner with the bank president at the Swiss nightlife restaurant."

The photos fully record the scene of that night, the cashing of the check, the signing of the contract, each shot has a clear close-up, "Why do you have it?"

"Hu Shiwei, chairman of the Meihua Group, is a high-end client of Swiss Bank. His family is in Switzerland and has contacts with the local government." Chen Ling tapped the edge of the table, "83 Hu Shiwei spent seven years in prison for theft and served his sentence After he was released, he rented under the jurisdiction of the Changan District Bureau, I used to take good care of him, and he voluntarily became my informant."

Sweat dripped from Chen Zheng's palms. After a long time, he laughed, "Chen Ling, I really didn't misunderstand you. Of the three of us, you are the most capable."

Chen Ling examined him, "Are you going to explain?"

He covered his face and exhaled, "Is there any smoke?"
