Chapter 208 Another "big case" happened
1960 10 Month 31 Day.

A dozen days after the little girl's full moon, Ge Shuping returned to Beijing by train. After Liu Zhiye received his call, he went to the South Railway Station to pick him up.

"Old Liu, congratulations! I didn't have time to catch up, but this is a gift from my husband and me to our child." After getting in the car, Old Ge smiled at him apologetically and handed him a longevity lock and some new clothes and shoes for the child.

Liu Zhiye took his gift without saying anything polite, and said with a smile: "Thank you very much! When the child grows up, I will recognize you as my godfather and godmother!"

"Hey! That's great! I take it seriously!" Lao Ge said happily immediately.

Liu Zhiye said firmly: "Of course, I think your two children should also recognize me as their godfather, and our two families will become godparents."

Old Ge also had this plan, so he agreed immediately and said, "Okay! When my wife brings the kids to Beijing, I'll set up a table. You can't miss out on a gift when they meet you!"

"Hey! You can rest assured!" Liu Zhiye glared at him and said.

As they were talking, the two of them drove to the south gate of Red Star Factory. The guard saluted immediately when he saw that it was Liu Zhiye's car. Liu Zhiye nodded to him and drove faster through the guard post.

"Old Liu, the quality of our security personnel is really good! I took a look, and compared with the security guards over there, there is a world of difference..." Old Ge sighed as he looked at the security personnel on duty along the way.

He felt that the Red Star Factory Security Department was no less rigorous in its duties than the regular army. Whether it was standing guard or patrolling, they were as orderly as the army.

The security guards on duty along the way walked one by one, two by two, three by three, four by four, and more than five by one. Such discipline and team spirit are really admirable.

Liu Zhiye said proudly after hearing this: "Hehe! This is also the result of my hard work. Do you think the title of National Excellent Security Unit can be obtained in this way?"

As he spoke, he recounted his experiences in the Security Department when he first joined the company, and how the department subsequently changed. Ge Shuping listened with great interest and was thoroughly enjoyed.

Old Ge sighed and said, "What a pity!"

Liu Zhiye looked at him puzzledly: "What a pity?"

Old Ge sighed and said, "What a pity! I didn't get to experience such a wonderful experience. I'm afraid I'll never have such an experience again in my life! Now that the country is peaceful and we've been living in peace for a long time, I feel like a hero without a place to use his talents!"

"Hey! When a major case comes up, I'll help solve it!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhiye said with some dissatisfaction and disgust: "Ah! Bah! Bah! What nonsense are you talking about, you crow-mouthed bastard!"

Lao Ge knew he had said something wrong, so he patted his cheek and said to himself, "I told you not to talk nonsense, the bad ones don't work, but the good ones do..."

"I see that you have been immersed in good days for too long and have forgotten the cruelty of life. Do you think the enemy will give up?" Liu Zhiye said seriously, with a warning light flashing in his eyes.

They cannot let down their guard and let their horses run wild. Moreover, they must not forget that imperialism still has the will to destroy us, so they must always remain vigilant and be prepared to deal with any possible dangers and challenges.

After getting off the car, the two walked straight to the personnel department to go through the entry procedures. In fact, they had already completed all the necessary procedures and only needed to complete the last step to officially start work.

The lady from the Personnel Department smiled and said to Old Ge, "Congratulations, Deputy Section Chief Ge. Deputy Factory Director Jiang has specifically told us that you are a 19th-level deputy section chief and enjoy the treatment of an 18th-level (deputy battalion commander). This means that your monthly salary is 89 yuan, and all living expenses will be paid accordingly."

"Thank you, Sister Yu! Thank you for the organization's care." Lao Ge shook hands with her eagerly and said goodbye.

Liu Zhiye took him out of the personnel department and then to the logistics department to collect Lao Ge's equipment. He took two 58-style blue police uniforms, cotton-padded clothes and quilts, pots and pans, washing supplies and other items.

Then, they went directly to the Security Department cadres’ dormitory to settle down first.

Liu Zhiye watched Lao Ge busy cleaning the house and said, "Lao Ge, I've already informed Director Li Huaide of the Logistics Department about your housing problem. It will be a priority. You can stay in the dormitory for a few days and bear with it."

"Hey! I don't feel wronged. Back then, we lived in a shack with drafts on all sides in temperatures of minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius, but we lived comfortably. Why should I feel wronged when I move into this spacious and bright dormitory?" Old Ge waved his hand, seemingly indifferent.

Liu Zhiye laughed and scolded contemptuously: "Don't talk about those useless things! Our conditions are very different now than they were back then. Not to mention now, when my sister-in-law and the children come, where will you live? Four people squeezed into a single room, that's not okay!"

"They haven't arrived yet, don't worry, just take your time and look for them!" Old Ge said with a grin.

Liu Zhiye glanced at his watch and said, "It's almost time, let's go to the Security Department for a meeting." They stood up and walked towards the Security Department together.

Security Section.

In the Security Department meeting room, Liu Zhiye sat steadily in the middle, with Sun Li and Ge Shuping on his left and right. "Comrades, after careful consideration by the organization, it has been decided that Comrade Ge Shuping will serve as the deputy chief of the Security Department, and Comrade Zhou Weiguo will serve as the deputy chief of the Public Security Department.

This is undoubtedly a powerful reinforcement of our security department's work. Comrade Ge Shuping is a former military cadre..." Liu Zhiye solemnly introduced Lao Ge to all the comrades in the security department.

"Next, Comrade Ge Shuping will speak!"

Old Ge stood up with a snap, saluted his comrades, and then spoke: "Dear leaders and comrades, good morning! The Party Committee's decision on my appointment was just announced at the meeting. First of all, I would like to sincerely thank the Party Committee for its trust and concern, thank all the leaders for their respect and love, and thank all the comrades for their trust and support. I firmly support the Party Committee's decision and obey the arrangements of the Party Committee!

For me, this appointment is not only a recognition and understanding, but also an expectation and trust, which gives me the opportunity..."

After Lao Ge finished his speech, Sun Li took the lead in giving him a warm round of applause, and also expressed the welcome of all the colleagues in the security department to Lao Ge. The comrades in the audience also responded one after another, and the scene was very warm.

"Whoosh!"

After the welcome party, everyone walked out of the room, talking and laughing.

The security guard on duty came over in a hurry to report: "Director Liu, something happened!"

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.

Liu Zhiye frowned and urged, "Tell me slowly, what's going on?"

This comrade calmed himself down and began to narrate what had happened: Well, at about 11:35, we received a call from the Finance Department saying that their colleague Yang Xue had mysteriously lost contact after collecting her salary that morning.

The Finance Department had not heard back from her, and was worried that something had happened to her, so they sent someone to the bank to inquire. The bank staff confirmed that a female comrade from the Red Star Factory had indeed come to the bank that morning and had taken out a huge amount of cash, more than 500,000 yuan..."

Liu Zhiye was shocked when he heard this and thought to himself: Oh no, something big is going to happen. He hasn't seen such a situation for a long time.

Then he glanced at Ge Shuping and thought to himself, you are such a bad-mouthed person, is your tongue blessed?
"Where is the comrade who reported the case? Has he left?" Liu Zhiye asked anxiously.

The security guard responded: "The person hasn't left yet. He's waiting in the office."

"Take me to see her quickly, and also notify the factory committee leaders immediately..." Liu Zhiye gave orders to Sun Li and others.

After meeting the comrade from the Finance Department, Liu Zhiye asked about what had happened.

It turns out that the female cashier who withdrew the money was named Yang Xue, 25 years old, married, and her family members were also workshop workers at the Red Star Factory.

Today, as usual, she went to the bank at 8:30 in the morning to withdraw this month's wages. Since the bank was not far from the Red Star Factory, she could return smoothly in more than half an hour.

However, the comrades in the Finance Department waited until 11 o'clock and still did not see Yang Xue come back. Director Dong was very worried and sent two more comrades to the bank to pick her up.

However, they did not see Yang Xue along the way, so they went to ask the bank staff.

However, the answer from the bank staff surprised the colleagues in the Finance Department, because Yang Xue did come to withdraw money, but she left before 9 o'clock.

The comrades from the Finance Department confirmed again whether the staff had remembered something wrong. They said it was impossible because they knew Yang Xue.

And only Red Star Factory would withdraw such a large amount at the end of the month, which is really impressive.

Seeing this, the two comrades looked at each other and couldn't help wondering: Could Yang Xue have absconded with the money? So they hurried back to the Finance Department to report to Director Dong.

Director Dong's heart tightened, thinking to herself that this was not good! She immediately sent someone to report this to the security department.

……

When Liu Zhiye heard this, he immediately ordered: "Comrade Sun Li, go find Yang Xue's husband and pay attention to his attitude. Comrade Zhou Weiguo, take a few people to investigate along Yang Xue's withdrawal route."

"Yes!" Sun Li and Zhou Weiguo immediately took the order and went without saying anything.

When Lao Ge saw this situation, he must have been extremely surprised!
