Siheyuan: Back to 50 years ago, Shazhu joined the army

He immediately spoke first.

"Zhao Tiezhu, don't be nervous. I asked you to come here today to find out about what happened on duty last Friday. What were you doing last Friday night? Who was your partner?"

When Zhao Tiezhu heard He Yuzhu's question, his eyes flickered and his speech was a little incoherent. After organizing his words a little, he slowly spoke.

"Chief, that night, it was Ma Hongbing and I who were in charge of patrolling the eastern area of ​​the steel mill."

He Yuzhu nodded upon hearing this.

"Well, let me ask you, was there anything unusual that night, or were there any discoveries?"

Before He Yuzhu could finish his words, Zhao Tiezhu started shaking his head like a rattle.

"Chief, there was no movement that day, everything is fine."

It was obvious that He Yuzhu was not satisfied with Zhao Tiezhu's answer. He felt that there was something wrong with this Zhao Tiezhu and he seemed to be hiding something. However, he was not in a hurry now. Seeing that he could not ask any more questions, He Yuzhu signaled Zhao Tiezhu to go out first.

The last person to arrive at the office was Ma Hongbing. This guy was different from the previous three people. He seemed very calm, without even a trace of timidity or guilt.

Before He Yuzhu could even start talking, he couldn't wait to speak first.

"Chief, what do you want to talk to me about? Do you want to ask me about my duty last Friday?"

He Yuzhu was quite surprised when he heard this, but he still repeated what he said before.

"Ma Hongbing, there's nothing else to do. I just want to know the details of your duty last Friday night."

When Ma Hongbing heard He Yuzhu's question, he answered without hesitation.

"Section Chief, my partner was Zhao Tiezhu. There was nothing unusual that night. At 12 o'clock, I heard a dog barking. I thought it was someone, but when I went over to take a closer look, I found that it was a wild cat passing by, so I didn't take it seriously."

When He Yuzhu heard Ma Hongbing's answer, he had an idea in mind.

"Okay, Ma Hongbing, you go back first."

............................

After a while, the four people finished their questioning. Chen Feng also returned to the section chief's office at this time. He took the initiative to ask He Yuzhu.

"Chief, how is it? Did you find out any information?"

He Yuzhu smiled slightly when he heard what Chen Feng said, showing a confident look.

"Chen Feng, based on what these four people said, I now have three suspects."

Chen Feng was stunned for a moment when he heard this.

"Chief, which three are they?"

He Yuzhu: "The two brothers Ma Hongbing, and that Zhao Tiezhu."

Chen Feng was a little surprised to hear the news. He continued to ask He Yuzhu,

"Chief, why do you think there is something wrong with these three people? Did they lie?"

He Yuzhu didn't say anything and directly handed the notes he had written down to Chen Feng.

After Chen Fengzai browsed through it, he became even more confused.

"Section Chief, I don't think there is anything wrong with their confessions. I don't quite understand why you say there are problems with these three people."

He Yuzhu really intended to train Chen Feng as his own, so he patiently explained.

"Xiao Chen, it's actually very simple. First of all, Wang Lin and Ma Hongtao were in charge of the West Factory District. They didn't have the time or conditions to commit the crime. In addition, their confessions were consistent, which means they should be telling the truth, and the chances of collusion are very small. But there is a problem. Ma Hongtao left for half an hour under the pretext of going to the toilet, which gave him plenty of time to commit the crime.

On the other hand, Zhao Tiezhu knew nothing about anything and looked like he had done something wrong. He must have been hiding something.

As for the last Ma Hongbing, he was even more bizarre. Not only did his statement not match Zhao Tiezhu's, but he also described the abnormal situation that night in detail. All these signs showed that these two people were lying!"

After hearing He Yuzhu's explanation and analysis, Chen Feng was still a little confused.

He Yuzhu was quite helpless when he saw that the other party only had a vague idea of ​​what was going on, but he did not intend to continue explaining because this involved human behavior analysis and psychology.

"Chen Feng, if you want me to do this, you should find Zhao Tiezhu again. This time, you should also stay in the office and listen."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng immediately understood what he meant.

A moment later, Zhao Tiezhu followed Chen Feng back to the section chief's office.

He was still quite nervous when he returned this time.

After he sat down, He Yuzhu spoke first, "Zhao Tiezhu, do you know why I called you here again?"

When Zhao Tiezhu heard what He Yuzhu said, his heart skipped a beat and he had a feeling that something was wrong.

He shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

He Yuzhu changed the subject and became serious. He slammed the table hard.

"Snapped......"

This sound really scared Zhao Tiezhu, who was feeling guilty.

He looked at He Yuzhu in front of him with a confused look on his face, not knowing why he was so angry.

"Zhao Tiezhu, I've already asked you about the Friday duty. You actually dared to lie so openly. Do you know what the consequences will be? It seems that you were the one who stole the one ton of steel from the steel mill."

As soon as He Yuzhu said this, Zhao Tiezhu's face turned pale. He felt very uncomfortable with such a big hat being put on his head. He immediately started to defend himself.

"No, Chief, I didn't do it. Don't accuse me. I didn't do anything."

He Yuzhu saw that his rhetoric had worked, so he continued to pursue his victory.

"If it wasn't you, then who could it be? You'd better tell the truth. If you resist, you will be punished severely. If you confess, you will be punished leniently. Otherwise, hmph... hmph..."

How could Zhao Tiezhu dare to hide anything? He immediately told everything he knew.

It turned out that Zhao Tiezhu felt a little unwell for some unknown reason while on duty last Friday, so he did not participate in the night patrol and instead returned to the duty room to take a nap.

As for what happened that night, he had no recollection of it at all. It was Ma Hongbing who woke him up near dawn.

Because he was negligent in his duties that day and was afraid that his superiors would know the truth and he would be punished, so he lied.

After listening to Zhao Tiezhu's narration, He Yuzhu knew that he was telling the truth, and then he signaled Zhao Tiezhu that he could go back for the time being.

After hearing the news, Zhao Tiezhu looked at He Yuzhu in disbelief.

"Chief, can I really leave now? You don't plan to punish me?"

He Yuzhu waved his hand.

"You wish. The punishment will be withheld for now. We will discuss it after this case of steel theft is over."
