Chapter 312: Chapter 307: Breakthrough_1
Getting restless?
Upon hearing this news, Nie Zhenbang gave a slight nod, then turned to Xiao Zhao beside him and instructed, “Xiao Zhao, you and Xiao Song will take over the interrogation here. I will arrange for manpower to cover later shifts. Since Feng Dabiao is playing tough, let him play all the way until he willingly speaks.”
This fatigue-bombing approach to interrogation is most commonly used within the public security and disciplinary committee systems. ntal torture tends to be far more painful than physical. In extre fatigue, when even the eyelids are fighting to close, but sleep is forbidden, the agony is imnse. At such tis, those with weaker will are likely to seek escape. Suicide is often their first thought. Yet even suicide isn’t an option, and with a desire for death, other considerations no longer matter.
In the end, everyone longs for relief. To obtain it, the best way is to actively confess and admit to all deeds, thereby seeking an end to the ordeal.
This fatigue-bombing style of interrogation is a form of torture for the suspect. The reason it was gradually abolished in later years is because of this. However, at present, it is an infallible magic weapon.
Coming out of the interrogation room, Gao Wei and Zheng Gensheng approached him. Gao Wei said, “Director Nie, this was just handed over to us by a soldier from the Ard Departnt. A middle-aged man specifically asked them to pass it to us. See if it could be what we discussed earlier.”
With the Feng Dabiao case, during the undercover investigation, Nie Zhenbang had already determined that Dang County could not be an absolute accomplice. If it were so, Dang County would have beco Feng Dabiao’s personal kingdom, sothing the party and the country would never allow.
The situation in Dang County is that so people are suppressed and dare not resist or move. If we take sweeping asures and appear overwhelming, it will certainly resonate with many and stir their hearts. Unlike the investigation team, these people have been stationed in Dang County for many years and are very familiar with Feng Dabiao and others. As long as they are willing, obtaining one or two crucial pieces of evidence is not a problem. It seems that Nie Zhenbang guessed right.
Unwrapping the large envelope wrapped in brown paper, several photos inside show a man and a woman who seem very intimate. The appearance of the man is very familiar to Nie Zhenbang and others; it is Feng Dabiao. The appearance of this woman, however, has delighted Nie Zhenbang and the others. It seems that this woman is likely to be key to solving the case. It’s very likely that all of Feng Dabiao’s criminal evidence is hidden with this woman.
Underneath the photos, there’s a note attached. The handwriting is ssy and irregular. From one look, it’s clear that it was written with the left hand, and deliberately so, to avoid revealing the writer’s identity. The careful caution of these people surprises Nie Zhenbang a bit.
The current scene is like conducting underground intelligence work. Underneath the note, there is also a tape. This item is a luxury at this ti, in an era when video machines are rare, yet they own a cara extravagantly. This is enough to prove that these people are not ordinary; ordinary civilians can’t afford this.
After pondering for a mont, Nie Zhenbang promptly arranged, “Old Zheng, imdiately contact Secretary Fan from the Dongng District. Ask him to imdiately dispatch people to search this woman’s residence.”
Saying so, Nie Zhenbang held up the video tape in his hand and said, “Wei Zi, let’s go. Call Director He from the Ludong Province Disciplinary Committee and Secretary Fan from Dongng to co along, let’s see what’s on this tape.”
Here at the Ard Departnt Guest House and with the arrangent of the Dongng District Disciplinary Committee, all kinds of equipnt are readily available. With the developnt of the tis and the advancent of technology, even computers are gradually beginning to be popular in big cities. Even in a place like Dang County, so electronic equipnt is provided. Video machines are an absolute necessity. Although they may not be necessarily utilized for the entire case, it’s always better to have.
At this mont, it’s being put to use. Upon receiving Nie Zhenbang’s notice, He Weimao now has a smile on his face as he walks in. The Ludong Province Disciplinary Committee is rely assisting in this case. Frankly speaking, He Weimao currently cannot wait to see Nie Zhenbang make a fool of himself.
Things have their urgencies. For example, at life-threatening situations, that’s a major and urgent issue and cannot be delayed. He Weimao can clearly stand with Nie Zhenbang. After all, if anything happened to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection team here, the Ludong Province Disciplinary Committee would be partly to bla.
But now, with the investigation in the hands of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and Nie Zhenbang, He Weimao is quite at ease. Everyday, aside from paying attention to the progress of the case, he does not make any other movents or activities.
Seeing Nie Zhenbang walk into the office, He Weimao also smiles and says, “Director Nie, have you found any new clues?”
While they were talking, Fan ngshui and Zheng Gensheng hurriedly walked in as well. Nie Zhenbang also laughed and said, he understands very well what He Weimao and Fan ngshui ant – that they will fully cooperate. But to get any substantial help from these old foxes, unless he asks for it, they won’t take the initiative. At this mont, all these people are waiting to laugh at him.
“Just a mont ago, I received so materials. Among them, there was this tape, and I was curious about how such a thing could exist. So, I specifically invited you two here so we can all watch it together and see what it is about.”
After starting the video player and the TV, and putting the tape inside, after about half a minute, the snowflake dot disappeared, and was replaced by the main road of Dang County’s county town. The filming location was chosen well, probably from the fifth floor, and the skill of the filming crew was impressive. There were no picture shakes or noises.
In the fra, the entire county town of Dang County was in full view. On both sides of the street, every dozen ters or so, a vibrant flag was erected. The weather in the fra was good. The ti was probably around 8 o’clock in the morning.
On the street, policen in uniform were constantly patrolling. Judging from the scene, it appeared to be a major celebration in Dang County.
As ti went on, the crowd in the fra gradually increased. The cara slowly moved to reveal an open space ahead; the entrance to the county governnt office of Dang County, which was essentially a small square. At the sa ti, the lens slowly zood in and the image beca clearer. At this mont, on the square, formations started to gather, with the police formation at the front followed by the militia formation. Then ca formations representing the health system, governnt organs, taxation, industrial and comrcial, etc., all wearing clothes representative of their respective images.
anwhile, on the road, a 212 open-top jeep ca to a halt, and the plump figure of Feng Dabiao appeared in the fra. In front of Feng Dabiao, there was another open-top jeep and surprisingly, the man in it was Feng Dajun.
At that mont, Feng Dajun saluted in a not so standard military manner and shouted, “Comrade Secretary, the review ceremony for National Day in Dang County is ready for your inspection.”
After speaking, Feng Dabiao appeared imposing in the fra, fully displaying the deanor of a leader. He waved his hand like a leader of the party and the country and declared, “Begin.”
Then, the majestic sound of the inspection march music was heard. The jeep moved slowly, and Feng Dabiao waved while saying, “Comrades, hello. Everyone has worked hard.”
The responding catchphrase was naturally those two familiar lines: “Hello leader. Devoted to serving the people.”
Upon seeing this, Nie Zhenbang couldn’t help but find it amusing. The pomp and circumstance surpassed even Elder Nan’s military parade back in the day. However, aside from the humorous aspect of the fra, it was also enough to prove Feng Dabiao’s arrogance in Dang County. Such a wasteful event was not sothing a competent county party secretary should do.
The video continued, and after the inspection was completed, Feng Dabiao and his entourage returned to the podium set up at the entrance of the county party building. anwhile, the mbers of each formation began to pass before the podium one after another, presenting their salutes.
Upon seeing this, both He Weimao and Fan ngshui couldn’t bear to watch any further. This tape was simply a disgrace to the Dongng District and a stain on Ludong Province.
Imdiately, He Weimao, his face pale, stood up and said, “Outrageous, ridiculous! What virtues and abilities does Feng Dabiao possess? What right does he have to inspect? What right does he have to create such a grandiose spectacle in the county town? Is Dang County a strong economic county in the province? Or is Dang County saying that it has escaped poverty, been well-fed, and is ready to strive for a moderately prosperous life? This man needs to be severely punished.”
As soon as he finished speaking, He Weimao seed to rember his own position; there was a leader of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection present.
Imdiately, He Weimao ca forward and said, “Director Nie, this tape is simply shocking. This is utterly reckless; such officials must be sternly dealt with. I urge Director Nie to consider this seriously. From what I can see, this person is simply unfit to be an official.”
Nie Zhenbang smiled inwardly, fearing that the two of them would make observations from the sidelines. What was needed was their current attitude.
Imdiately, Nie Zhenbang nodded and said, “Director He, I wholeheartedly agree with your opinion. By peeking into the center of things, I can see the essence. This tape may seem amusing, but its deep-seated implications are worthy of our reflection. Such a person must be dealt with severely. If we continue to retain this kind of person in our ranks of party mbers and cadres, it would be an insult to us.”
Having said that, Nie Zhenbang continued to spill the beans, “Director He, Secretary Fan, one more important clue that ca with these materials: according to the information shown, Feng Dabiao has a mistress here. I estimate that the final breakthrough may very well be this mistress. In fact, when Feng Dabiao was accepting bribes, this woman even served as his spokesperson. I believe it is necessary to imdiately arrest this woman.” (To be continued. If you like this work, please co to and vote for it. Your support is my greatest motivation).
