This place belongs to the private property of the Secrecy Bureau. It has a large house with three entrances, two east and west courtyards, a moon-viewing pavilion, a back garden, and winding corridors. There is no shortage of everything.
At this moment, in the room with the door sign of "Inspection Commissioner", Secretary Li put a blue booklet on the desk and said: "Commissioner Jiang, this is the details of the seized stolen goods. Please take a look."
Jiang Xinyu picked it up and flipped through a few pages, then asked: "Where is it placed?"
"In the West Cross Courtyard."
"Let's go and have a look!"
"You come with me."
Come out of the office, walk west along the corridor, then pass through a moon gate and arrive at the west courtyard.
There are also several rooms in the west courtyard. The courtyard is paved with bluestone slabs, brick by brick, and has pavilions and pavilions, all of which exude luxury.
Iron railings were added to the windows of the wing, and even the door was replaced with a cast iron door. Secretary Li took out the key and opened the lock and said: "Commissioner Jiang, please come in."
The ventilation facilities in the wing are complete, and the air in the room is very dry. Secretary Li introduced: "Because there were too many stolen goods seized and there was no suitable place to store them, Director Dai changed this place into a temporary warehouse."
There are more than a dozen iron cabinets that are as tall as a person in the room. There are labels on the cabinet doors, indicating the source of the stolen goods. They are all the names of the officials under investigation.
"Gao Wenzheng, former deputy director of the Peking Inspection Department..." Jiang Xinyu muttered and reached out to open the cabinet door.
There are a large number of silver coins, gold bars, and various antique calligraphy and paintings stacked in the cabinet, which is so dazzling to look at.
Secretary Li said from the side: "Gao Wenzheng's case has been sentenced and he is currently serving his sentence in Nanjing Laohuqiao Prison."
"How many years was the sentence?"
"15 years and three months."
"He took advantage of him, used his power for personal gain, knew the law and broke the law. It is not too much to shoot such a person!"
"Yes, yes...Um, Commissioner Jiang, do you need to check?"
"Oh, I have something else to do later, let's do it another day."
Jiang Xinyu knew that it was useless to check the accounts. There must be no problems with the accounts that he could see.
When he was checking the detailed register of stolen goods just now, he discovered a problem. Judging from the condition of the paper, there was no trace of time at all!
Ordinarily, more than a year has passed, and there will be at least a little difference. There can only be one reasonable explanation for this situation. This register is a forgery!
Coming out of No. 14 Gongxian Hutong, Jiang Xinyu walked along the street and came to the Fengrui Thai Rice Shop.
The rice store operates a full range of products, including rice and white noodles, as well as all kinds of grains. Behind the counter is a door with the word "warehouse" written on it.
"Sir, what do you need?" the boss greeted enthusiastically.
"Just take a look." Jiang Xinyu walked around Mihang and then walked out.
A few minutes after he left, Secretary Li entered Mihang.
"Hey, Secretary Li, you are here..."
"Talk inside!"
The boss asked the clerk to keep an eye on the store, and then let Secretary Li into the warehouse.
It's said to be a warehouse, but there's a room in the middle with a small bed against the wall. A waiter keeps watch here at night.
Secretary Li whispered: "What did that person ask you just now?"
The boss was stunned for a moment, then thought about it immediately and said, "Which one? Oh, you mean the man in the suit?"
"right."
"I didn't ask anything. I looked around and left... Secretary Li, who is he?"
"Inspector."
"What does the Inspector...do you care about?"
"Specially responsible for supervising Director Li!"
The boss was startled and said in surprise: "Such a big official...why does he come to my place?"
Secretary Li thought for a moment and said to himself: "I must have noticed something, otherwise I wouldn't have come to Mihang for no reason. It seems that these things need to be moved to another place..."
The boss is also from Hunan and grew up in the same hometown as Li Xicheng. The two of them are more or less related. With such a relationship, the two of them have been traveling frequently recently.
Li Xicheng was unfamiliar with the place in Peiping. He had nowhere to store the things he had embezzled, and he didn't dare to keep them with him, so he hid them all in Fengrui Taimi Bank!
…………
Qianmen Street.
"Xinyu, where are we going?"
"Don't you want to see the excitement? I'll take you to the most lively places in Peiping."
"where?"
"Overpass! Didn't you hear people say that when you reach the overpass, you have visited all of Peiping?"
"real or fake?"
"You'll know when you go there."
Jiang Xinyu knew without looking back that among the bustling crowd, the person spying on him must also be hiding among them!
Last night, Jiang Xinyu dismissed the hotel boy on the pretext of making a private phone call and secretly checked the guest check-in book.
The registration book showed that on the same day that he checked in, a man named He Yuanwei also checked into the Sanhe Hotel.
The name was very unfamiliar. Jiang Xinyu guessed that it might be a forged document...
As soon as he arrived at the Tianqiao, Tong Tong couldn't see enough. He went to watch wrestling for a while, and listened to cross talk for a while, smiling happily with excitement.
"Xinyu, come on, come on, over here!" Tong Tong stood on tiptoes and looked into the crowd.
"Ladies, ladies and gentlemen, you are all here today. I will show you some real skills, sword swallowing! Come on, everyone!"
The man performing the trick turned a dagger upside down and thrust it down his throat.
"Okay! One more!" Tong Tong clapped his hands and took the lead in cheering.
The crowd suddenly became commotion, and a rough voice shouted: "Get out of the way, the horse is frightened!"
Before he finished speaking, a group of tall horses came galloping towards them. The street was immediately in chaos, and people stepped aside to avoid the startling horses.
Seeing Jiang Xinyu still standing on the street, Tong Tong jumped to his feet anxiously and shouted: "Xinyu, get out of the way!"
Jiang Xinyu stood still, staring at the frightened horse. When Tong Tong screamed, he saw the right moment and grabbed the horse's reins, leaping onto the horse's back!
"Hush!"
Jiang Xinyu clamped his legs and tightened the reins hard, finally controlling the frightened horse.
He was riding on horseback, standing high and looking far away, with a wide field of vision, and his eyes quickly scanned the crowd.
All living beings are in various states of mind, including surprise, fear, and joy. In this situation, no one can remain calm!
There was only one exception. The man standing in front of the newsstand held a newspaper in his hand. His face was calm and he didn't show any signs of panic.
That's right, it's him!
Jiang Xinyu said to himself in his heart.
"Sir, thank you. If you damage someone else's things, I can't even afford to pay for it!" The horse owner chased after him and kept bowing to Jiang Xinyu.
Jiang Xinyu jumped off the horse, handed the reins to the horse's owner, and said, "Be careful, it's okay if you crash something, but you'll be in trouble if you hurt someone!"
The horse owner kept saying: "Yes, yes, you are right."
Tong Tong hurried over, pulled Jiang Xinyu aside, stamped his feet and said, "You scared me to death!"
After finding the person who was spying on him, Jiang Xinyu was in a good mood and said with a smile: "My equestrian skills are very good. The most I can do is fall, so it's okay!"
