Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 247 Nanshu's Confession

It’s the end of August, just after the end of the dog days.

In the afternoon, the temperature in the fields was still frighteningly hot. The cicadas were hiding somewhere, and they seemed to be stimulated and were screaming wildly.

There was a sudden discordant movement among the rice ears in the field, and suddenly a man covered in mud emerged from the field in a panic.

The man limped onto the road, holding onto a big tree by the roadside and breathing heavily. The cicadas in the tree were frightened and stopped making noise.

"There!" a voice rang out.

The man looked and saw a motorcycle speeding towards him, with two people in police uniforms on it looking at him excitedly.

The man was shocked and rolled over and dived into the endless rice field.

The police officer took out his walkie-talkie and started calling for support: "Director Wang, we've found the suspect He Wei! We've found the suspect He Wei! He's in the rice fields next to Hejiaqu."

As soon as the message was transmitted, Wang Fugui's order was immediately received over the intercom: "Everyone, head towards Hejiaqu. Remember not to let He Wei escape. Also, the suspect has a gun, so shoot him if necessary! I repeat, shoot him if necessary!"

Looking down from the sky, you can see a figure crawling in the fields and rushing left and right.

A hundred meters away from him, a huge circular encirclement formed by police was taking shape.

He Wei, once the most powerful prince in Hekou County, is about to come to an end.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Wang Fugui took a loudspeaker and began to shout: "He Wei, come out now with your hands raised high and accept the judgment of the law. I can guarantee your life.

Otherwise, for the safety of my comrades, I will have no choice but to let them shoot you dead!"

He Wei pursed his cracked lips and slowly stuck his head out. The rice fields around him were already swaying faintly. He knew that those people were crawling forward.

Hearing the sound getting closer, He Wei collapsed directly on the rice field, looked at his pistol, and slowly raised it to his temple.

Looking back on my life, every scene is filled with sin.

But he didn't think he had done anything wrong. If there was any fault, it was that his brother-in-law was too indecisive, which led to a disaster and allowed the woman to take advantage of the opportunity.

Soon, armed police rushed to He Wei, with dozens of cold holes facing him.

"Put the gun down!"

"Put the gun down!!"

"..."

The police shouted.

Wang Fugui stepped forward and pushed through the crowd. "Yes, He Wei, you are quite a hero. If you dare to commit suicide, I will respect you as a man."

He Wei was desperate.

"Ah!" He Wei yelled while holding the gun, but he didn't pull the trigger. Instead, he threw the gun away and raised his hands: "I surrender! I surrender!"

Wang Fugui sneered. He was not surprised that He Wei surrendered. According to the news from the city, Nanshu had already confessed everything.

If this guy hadn't thrown away the evidence of his brother-in-law's crime in order to save his own life, Nan Shu wouldn't have fallen so early. So as long as there is a glimmer of hope, He Wei will not give up, let alone fight to the death.

With He Wei's arrest, a large number of unknown events and new evidence surfaced.

In order to survive, He Wei told everything he knew.

But many of the crimes were committed by him on his own initiative. Nanshu was at best a protective umbrella. Even if he confessed voluntarily, a bullet would still be waiting for him.

Under the supervision of the county party committee, He Wei was sentenced quickly, depriving his political rights for life and receiving the death penalty.

After the trial, Qi Tongwei went to meet Nan Shu specifically and told the old secretary the news of the court's trial.

Compared to the first time Qi Tongwei met him, the old secretary seemed to have turned gray overnight, and his eyes were no longer as sharp as before. He looked like a kind old neighbor.

Facing Qi Tongwei's arrival, Nan Shu remained calm and composed: "I guessed right, you are the driving force behind this."

In prison, without the interweaving of information and misleading others, Nanshu gradually sorted out his thoughts, and many confusing questions arose spontaneously.

Who does Jiang belong to?

After Li Fenfang's downfall, why did the Jiang family remain as stable as a rock?

If he is not Li Fenfang's person, then where did Li Fenfang's evidence come from?

As his thoughts returned to the time when He Wei occupied the land of Longteng Hotel, he understood.

He knew where he was wrong, that he shouldn't have taken this young man too lightly.

Qi Tongwei smiled slightly and said, "Secretary Nan, I don't quite understand what you said."

Nan Shu smiled bitterly: "Winner, I didn't expect you to be so cautious even at this point. I didn't lose unfairly."

"There are no winners here," Qi Tongwei smiled. "There's only one party member, and a former party member who has forgotten how to serve the people."

"What a great phrase: to serve the people." Nan Shu laughed at himself, "I came to that land with this belief."

Qi Tongwei said in a deep voice: "But you betrayed your oath."

Nan Shu did not refute, but sighed and said: "I have an unshirkable responsibility for the development of Hekou County.

Just like you back then, relying on the appreciation of the old secretary, I started working my way up from the townships, from deputy county chief to county chief, and then successfully took over the baton from the old secretary.

But I disagree with blaming Hekou County's backwardness on me personally.

Do you know what the slogan was back then?

Ensure production! Ensure food supply! "

Secretary Nan tapped the table in front of him as he spoke, "I've always done it this way, and I've done it very well.

It is even said that he receives commendations from higher authorities every year.

But who could have imagined that policies would change so suddenly? It's not that we didn't think about changing in time, but the higher-ups always told us that we were a key agricultural county and that we had to serve as everyone's logistics support."

At this point, Nanshu's tone became indignant.

“This burden lasted for several years, and when it was our turn, there were no good projects, or there were no good resources at all.

Even those heavily polluting enterprises have been snatched away by other counties. It’s because we don’t have the supporting facilities here that people are unwilling to come.

But we have no complaints, because we know that we did it in the first place because of the province's hunger.

But what was the result? The people above changed their expressions and said in one sentence that we were poor because we did nothing and were too lazy to act. How could I do anything? Damn it, after eating a few mouthfuls of food, I forgot my roots and started cursing?

When she is hungry, she calls me uncle, but when she is not hungry, she gives me a cold look.

If we hadn't been sacrificed, would the surrounding counties and cities have been able to develop so well?"

Qi Tongwei went straight to the point and said: "No matter what, this is not a reason for you to commit a crime.

It has not developed because of historical issues.

But what does it matter if you embezzled money in Hekou County? It's okay if you embezzled money, but you shouldn't have condoned the He brothers' lawlessness, and you shouldn't have encroached on the interests that originally belonged to the people."

Nan Shu was stunned for a moment, opened his lips, and wanted to say something, but in the end, he only let out a long sigh, "You are right, on this point, I don't deny that I have the responsibility.

When he was young, he became someone's son-in-law for power.

It's not easy to be a son-in-law. The old secretary never really trusted me. He only has his children in his eyes and he takes great pains for his children.

From the first time I was asked to use my power to cover up a rape case for his son, I knew there was no turning back….”

At this point, the voice stopped abruptly. Nan Shu smiled bitterly and ended the topic. "Why am I telling you all this? When you get old, you always like to nag. Okay, let's stop here."

Nanshu slowly supported himself on the table, stood up, and walked out of the visiting room with staggering steps.

The heavy iron door was opened, and a ray of hot sunlight reflected on Nanshu's face. Nanshu closed his eyes, feeling the heat, just like the passion of his youth.

After a while, Nanshu opened his eyes, turned around slowly, and said something like teaching or warning: "Tongwei, you are doing better than me. I hope you can fulfill your oath as a party member and don't follow my example.

If... I have the chance, I will apologize to my comrades and the people."

Looking at Nan Shu's disappearing back, Qi Tongwei felt complicated. According to the evidence, this old secretary did not take the initiative to participate in many things.

In other words, they were coerced into participating, saying hello but expressing the wrong attitude.

As he said, once the violation of the law begins, people will disregard the Party’s discipline and the laws of the country, use power to trample on the law, and there will be no turning back.

Director Qi is the same.

In the end, it is because power makes people lose their way.

Qi Tongwei thought about himself and realized that it was difficult to prove his innocence according to the party discipline and national laws.

But when it comes to treating the people, he feels that he is quite qualified.

He secretly made up his mind to stick to his original intention while in power, and at least do something for the country and the people!
