"Ma Xiaoyao, don't be slanderous!" Li Ming shouted angrily: "Hateng is my secretary, I know him, he is an upright man, there is absolutely no way he would do such a dirty thing as stealing a manhole cover!"
Ma Xiaoyao sneered: "County Magistrate Li, I don't have the guts to send people. I have evidence..."
"What evidence do you have!" Li Ming looked very ugly.
Ma Xiaoyao stretched out his hand and pointed at Ergazi, who was chasing Ha Teng: "He is the evidence! Let me introduce to you, his name is Ergazi, he is from Dongcheng County, he was the first to discover the thief, and he also had a fierce fight with the thief.
They fought hard, but unfortunately the thief escaped in the end... However, during the fight, Comrade Ergazi pulled off the hat and mask on the thief's head, and saw the thief's face clearly... Okay, Comrade Ergazi, don't stop.
I'm chasing Hateng, come here and tell everyone about your glorious deeds of fighting against the thief." Ma Xiaoyao said the last sentence to Ergazi.
After chasing Ha Teng for a while, Ergazi was already exhausted. Even if Ma Xiaoyao didn't speak, Ergazi was ready to stop and rest. Now that Ma Xiaoyao spoke, Ergazi took this opportunity to stop the pursuit and stood where he was.
He panted for a while, then strode towards Ma Xiaoyao.
"Comrade Ergazi, tell us about your brave fight against the thief." After speaking, Ma Xiaoyao turned to look at Wang Xiaolong: "Xiaolong, call the police and say that the thief who stole the manhole cover has been found. Let's ask him.
They came quickly to arrest him."
Wang Xiaolong nodded, took out his cell phone and called the Public Security Bureau.
Ergazi began to tell about his bravery in fighting thieves... I have to say that Ergazi's eloquence is really good. In just a few words, he praised himself as extremely brave and described Ha Teng as despicable and shameless...
As Ergazi spoke in depth, the expressions of the staff on site began to change, and the looks they looked at Ha Teng were full of contempt...
Hatten was holding on to the wall, breathing heavily. His hair was messed up, his face was scratched, and his clothes were torn. He looked very embarrassed... At this moment, Hatten was in an extremely depressed mood. He knew that he was finished...
It's completely over... He never dreamed that Ergazi would find the county government and expose him in front of so many people... Now Ha Teng is famous and notorious... Waiting for the result of Ha Teng, he will definitely be in jail.
…
Ha Teng doesn’t want to go to jail, he really doesn’t want to go to jail. He is still young and there are still many things that have not been done. He cannot go to jail... The only one who can save him now is Li Ming. Thinking of this, Ha Teng raised his head and looked towards Li Ming, with a look in his eyes.
Full of prayers.
Li Ming lowered his head and deliberately did not look at Ha Teng. He was also in a very depressed mood at the moment. He did not expect that Ha Teng would reveal it... Now that things have become big, Ha Teng must be finished. What Li Ming is thinking about is how to leave Ha Teng behind.
Qing himself... didn't even think about rescuing Ha Teng. In fact, when things got to this point, even if Li Ming wanted to rescue Ha Teng, it was unlikely...
Seeing Li Ming ignore him, Ha Teng's heart suddenly turned cold... Don't look at his previous promise that he would take all the responsibilities and would never implicate Li Ming... In fact, they were all said casually.
It's not sincere. Ha Teng is also a human being, he also has thoughts and his own goals. How can he be willing to go to jail? It is even more impossible for him to be willing to help Li Ming take the blame! Strictly speaking, all of this was led by Li Ming.
Ha Teng is just the executor, and the mastermind is Li Ming.
The reason why Ha Teng got to this point was all for Li Ming, to please Li Ming... Now that Ha Teng was in trouble, Li Ming remained silent, which broke Ha Teng's heart.
The police arrived quickly, led by Chief Xu Qiang.
After briefly asking what happened, the police took Ha Teng and Er Gazi away together.
"Okay, it's okay. Let's all go back to work." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand.
The staff surrounding him immediately dispersed and went back to work in their respective departments.
Ma Xiaoyao turned his head and glanced at Li Ming, whose face was ashen, and said with a smile: "You should know why Ha Teng stole the well cover."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Li Ming jumped up as if he had been stepped on, and shouted: "I don't know about Haten stealing the manhole cover at all!"
"You know best whether you know it or not." Ma Xiaoyao snorted: "Li Ming, you have been cheating on me time and time again. I will settle this debt with you slowly, and I will make you pay a heavy price!"
After that, Ma Xiaoyao led Wang Xiaolong and strode away.
Looking at Ma Xiaoyao's leaving figure, Li Ming gritted his teeth angrily: "Ma Xiaoyao, you bastard, just wait for me. Sooner or later, I will ruin your reputation! Just wait for me!!!"
…
Ma Xiaoyao did not return to his office, but went directly downstairs and took a car to the Public Security Bureau. He wanted to interrogate Ha Teng in person. Ma Xiaoyao was very sure that this matter was definitely related to Li Ming. He only needed to pry Ha Teng's mouth open.
Ma Xiaoyao has an excuse to deal with Li Ming.
After learning that Ha Teng was the thief, Ma Xiaoyao immediately figured out that stealing the manhole cover was clearly a bureau, a bureau designed against Ma Xiaoyao. The road was built under the supervision of Ma Xiaoyao, and the manhole cover was replaced with funds from Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao is very responsible for the continuous theft of well covers. Facts have proved that Ma Xiaoyao is really agitated these days and cannot eat or sleep well.
Dark interrogation room.
Ma Xiaoyao sat in the middle of the table, holding a cigarette in his hand and puffing away slowly.
There were two people sitting on the left and right of Ma Xiaoyao. The one sitting on the left was Chief Xu Qiang, and the one sitting on the right was a young policeman who was mainly responsible for recording criminals' confessions.
There was a wooden chair placed opposite Ma Xiaoyao, and Ha Teng sat on the chair with his head lowered and silent.
"Hateng, tell me, why did you steal the manhole cover?" Ma Xiaoyao asked calmly.
Hatten lowered his head and said nothing.
"What? Do you want to continue to remain silent?" Ma Xiaoyao glanced at Ha Teng.
Hatten still lowered his head and said nothing.
"Deputy County Magistrate Ma is asking you, you don't have ears!" Xu Qiang glared and shouted angrily.
Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "Director Xu, don't be angry, take your time, I believe Ha Teng will say it, because he is a smart man." Ma Xiaoyao slowly exhaled a puff of smoke and continued: "Ha Teng, you should listen
As I said: Leniency will be given if you confess, strict punishment if you resist! If you honestly explain the problem, you will definitely be dealt with lightly. If you persist and resist, you will be severely punished."
Hatten still didn't speak, but his expression changed somewhat.
"Hateng, do you think that if you remain silent and don't speak, the Public Security Bureau will not be able to convict you?" Ma Xiaoyao said coldly: "I tell you, this is absolutely impossible. When the police handle cases, they pay attention to a person.
The evidence is conclusive, and now the Public Security Bureau has a large amount of evidence. Even if you don't speak, you can still be convicted!"
The corners of Hatten's mouth were obviously excited a few times.
"What? Do you really want to keep resisting?" Ma Xiaoyao said with a stern face: "Hateng, you are still young and have a long way to go. You don't want to spend a lot of time in prison, right? Now I
I will give you a chance for leniency. As long as you explain the matter clearly and reveal who is behind the scenes, I will fight for leniency for you. Please think about it carefully."
Perhaps Ma Xiaoyao's enlightenment had an effect. Haten finally stopped being silent and spoke: "Can you give me a cigarette?"
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Of course." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao turned to the young policeman who was recording the confession: "Give him a cigarette."
The young policeman immediately stood up and helped Hatten light a cigarette.
Ha Teng took two long breaths: "My mind is very confused right now... Can you let me have a rest? You will come back to interrogate me tomorrow."
"Tomorrow?" Ma Xiaoyao suddenly frowned: "Hateng, let me advise you: It's best not to play any tricks!"
Haten shook his head: "I'm not being mean. My mind is really messed up right now... I really can't answer your questions..."
Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched a few times: "Okay, I'll let you rest for the night. I will come back to interrogate you tomorrow morning. I hope you can tell me the truth."
Haten nodded: "I will tell you everything I know tomorrow."
Ma Xiaoyao nodded, stood up and left the interrogation room.
Director Xu Qiang and the young policeman who recorded the confession also came out of the interrogation room.
After coming out of the interrogation room, Ma Xiaoyao said to Xu Qiang: "Director Xu, please keep an eye on Ha Teng. No one is allowed to visit without my permission. What I said is that no one can visit Ha Teng! Listen!
do you understand?"
Xu Qiang nodded: "I understand, Deputy County Magistrate Ma, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Ha Teng and will never let others visit him."
"Okay, let's do this for today. I'll come back tomorrow morning." After saying that, Ma Xiaoyao strode away.
After sending Ma Xiaoyao away, Xu Qiang sent extra people to guard Ha Teng, and issued strict orders not to allow anyone to visit Ha Teng. Although Xu Qiang behaved submissively in front of Ma Xiaoyao, he was actually quite vocal in the public security bureau.
Right.
…
After leaving the public security bureau, Ma Xiaoyao took a car directly back to the county government.
As soon as he walked into his office, Ma Xiaoyao's cell phone vibrated. Ma Xiaoyao took out his cell phone and saw that it was Gu Li calling. He hurriedly pressed the answer button: "Oh, what's the wind blowing today? Sister Gu.
You actually took the initiative to call me? That surprised me!"
"What? From your tone, it seems like you don't want to receive my call? If that's the case, then I'll hang up." Gu Li said dissatisfied.
"Hey... don't hang up... don't hang up... you misunderstood me. How could I not be willing to answer your call? I'm so willing. I want to hear your voice in my dreams..." Ma Xiaoyao said hurriedly
