South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Chapter 385 Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection Interrogation Room

"Comrade Zhou Xiaobai, we are not arresting anyone, but asking Comrade Yuan Mu to go back and cooperate with the investigation." The person from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection said expressionlessly.

"Okay, Xiaobai, it's okay. You take your son home first. I'll go with them and will be back soon." Yuan Mu stopped Zhou Xiaobai and said.

He is upright and has nothing to fear. He has no stain on himself. He has never accepted bribes or engaged in power-for-sex transactions, nor has he ever been derelict in his duties or been lazy. He just doesn't believe that the people from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection can do anything to him!

"But..." Zhou Xiaobai wanted to say something, but Yuan Mu shook his head.

"I'll go with you."

"Please come in." The person from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection opened the car door and gestured.

"Xiaohao, go home and do your homework well and listen to your mother." Yuan Mu looked at Yuan Zhihao and reminded him.

"Good dad."

"Let's go." Yuan Mu said to Zhou Xiaobai and turned to get into the car of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection.

The vehicle drove away. Zhou Xiaobai watched it go away, her heart burning with anger. This was now her fault. Let's see who will be the unlucky one in the end.

"Go son, go home!"

The car of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection did not drive to the Provincial Party Committee, but drove all the way to a small bungalow in the suburbs. The Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection did not always bring the arrested people back to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, but many of them were interrogated outside.

This place should be one of the interrogation locations of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. Yuan Mu did not resist and let them take him into one of the houses and then to a small room. There was someone guarding the door.

This room is only about ten square meters and is decorated entirely with soft furnishings to prevent the cadres being interrogated from committing suicide. There is a table, a few chairs, and a desk lamp on the table, and nothing else.

Yuan Mu sat on the chair. The two people from the Discipline Inspection Commission sat directly opposite Yuan Mu and turned on the desk lamp, and the dim light came on.

"Let me introduce myself. I am the director of the First Supervision Office of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. My name is Shen Feiyi, and he is the deputy director, Tao Zhixin."

"Okay, forget about all that and just tell me what's going on." Yuan Mu said impatiently.

"Yuan Mu! Watch your attitude!" Tao Zhixin slammed the table and shouted.

"Don't bother trying to play that on me! Since you've caught me, you should know what I used to do. Ask me if you have anything to ask. If not, just let me go!" Yuan Mu said disdainfully.

"Yuan Mu! Please cooperate with our work!" Shen Feiyi frowned.

"Didn't I cooperate? I have already cooperated very well, otherwise would I have come with you?" Yuan Mu sneered.

Yuan Mu figured it out. These people were probably sent by Lu Yuejin. He wanted to see what tricks Lu Yuejin could come up with.

The two looked at each other, exchanged glances, and then stopped dwelling on the matter and started asking directly.

"On July 21, 1988, you approved a document regarding the construction of a new plastics factory. Do you remember this?"

Yuan Mu thought about it carefully and nodded after about two minutes.

"Yes, it happened. The investor's name is Huang Baiqian."

"Now someone has reported that you accepted a bribe of 30,000 yuan from Huang Baiqian, as well as 15 cartons of cigarettes and three boxes of Maotai. Is this true?"

Yuan Mu laughed at that time. He indeed remembered this incident very clearly. In fact, he didn't like Huang Baiqian. He stuffed money into his pocket when they first met. Later, he sent cigarettes and alcohol to his home. Many people may have seen it at that time, but Yuan Mu didn't accept it at all. Did he need such little things?

The reason why he accepted Huang Baiqian was because he had enough money and the investment project was indeed good. Although he had some small ideas, he did not tamper with the project. He did not expect that someone would use this matter to make trouble now.

"What are you laughing at! Answer our questions!" Tao Zhixin said in a low voice.

"What are you laughing at? I'm laughing at you for believing everything you hear. Where is the evidence? Do you have any evidence?" Yuan Mu asked as he stretched out his hand.

Shen Feiyi glanced at Tao Zhixin, who nodded and then took out a few bills from his bag.

"We have already questioned Huang Baiqian. According to him, the cigarettes and alcohol were delivered to your home. He also put 30,000 yuan in cash in the wine box. These receipts are evidence."

Yuan Mu took the bill, glanced at it casually, and then threw it directly on the table.

"That's it? Can this be used as evidence? Do you have any direct evidence to prove that I accepted these cigarettes and alcohol? Huang Baiqian did give me cigarettes and alcohol at that time, but I returned them. I didn't want them at all!"

"Yuan Mu! I advise you to tell the truth. You may be able to get a lenient treatment!"

"Oh! I understand. You just received a letter of complaint, some bills and some words from Huang Baiqian, and you concluded that I accepted bribes? You dare to arrest me with just this little evidence. Don't you care about the impact at all?" Yuan Mu really doubted the IQ of these two people.

"We are doing the work of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. If someone reports us, we will investigate! We don't consider other things. We do this for the people to get rid of corrupt officials like you!"

"Bullshit! You still have the nerve to say you are doing this for the people! With your low level of professionalism, I really don't know how you can stay in the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Didn't your teachers teach you? You dare to do this job before you even become a master. The existence of people like you is the greatest misfortune for the people!!" Yuan Mu slammed the table and shouted angrily.

"Yuan Mu!! What's your attitude? This is not your office, this is the interrogation room of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection!"

"What rights do you have to interrogate me! I am a member of the Standing Committee of the Harbin Municipal Party Committee, Secretary of the District Party Committee, and a full-time department-level cadre. What qualifications do you, a deputy department-level cadre and a full-time division-level cadre, have to show off in front of me! Now I am just cooperating with your investigation. You have no substantial evidence to prove that I have violated the Party's discipline and the country's laws. What qualifications do you have to interrogate me! You are not worthy!" Yuan Mu was not at all weak and immediately retorted.

This is because in this era, there were no law enforcement recorders or anything like that. Otherwise, Yuan Mu would not dare to say this. If it was recorded, it would have a bad impact and he would easily be accused of resisting the organization's investigation.

But now he is not afraid at all. There are no recording or video equipment here. If there were, he would not be able to hide it from him. If he could be hidden from him, then all his years as a policeman would have been in vain.

"You!!" Shen Feiyi was so angry that he was pointing at Yuan Mu with his finger shaking constantly.

"Yuan Mu! Do you think we can't deal with you?" Tao Zhixin glared at Yuan Mu and shouted angrily.

"What? You dare to torture me? I'm a state cadre and the district party secretary of the most economically developed region in Heilongjiang Province. Just try to touch me!" Yuan Mu looked at Tao Zhixin coldly.

Yuan Mu is really not afraid of being tortured. If he really is tortured, it would be fine. If he doesn't skin them both, he'd be considered strong!
