Chapter 70 Interrogation of Lao Ge
In the deep night, Lao Ge's residence was shrouded in a tense and orderly search operation by criminal investigation team members.

In order to ensure the success of this arrest operation, the criminal investigation team members and security department members who participated were all elites who were strictly selected. They shouldered the mission of law and justice, their eyes were firm and they were ready for battle.

As Chief Li issued orders, the team members quickly dispersed with flashlights in hand. Under the dim light, every movement and every breath they made seemed extremely cautious and professional.

With their high professionalism and tacit teamwork, they ensured the smooth progress of the entire search process. The space in the house was gradually occupied by the criminal investigation team, and the air was filled with an indescribable atmosphere.

Walking into the homes of people like Lao Ge, you will see that the furnishings are in disarray, but no one knows what is hidden under this complicated appearance. The criminal investigation team members need to carefully check every corner and not miss any clues.

The books and magazines on the bookshelf, the coal stove, the tableware in the kitchen, the roof beams, the clothes in the closet, and even the dust under the carpet were all under their close surveillance.

The most nervous thing was the room where Lao Ge lived. The furnishings in the room were simple, but there was a strange atmosphere. They carefully checked every item in the room, from the odds and ends in the drawers to the New Year paintings on the wall, leaving no detail unchecked.

After a long and detailed search, the criminal investigation team found three pistols and more than a hundred bullets, a dozen short knives and daggers, one or two thousand yuan in cash, and dozens of various bills in the house...

After all the evidence was checked, Section Chief Li discussed with Liu Zhiye and decided to end the arrest mission.

After quietly collecting all the evidence, they escorted the prisoners back to Xinjiekou Police Station, where they would face the next round of challenges.

In order to ensure the safety of the evidence, Chief Li left two police station comrades behind to guard the scene, while he and other police officers returned along the same route.

As the night deepened, their figures faded away under the street lights.

…………

It was already late at night when Liu Zhiye and his companions returned to the district bureau exhausted. They walked back to the district bureau with heavy steps, feeling deeply exhausted and under great pressure both physically and mentally.

Section Chief Li immediately ordered that Lao Ge, Li Qian, Dachun, Zhang Mazi, and the three others be detained separately, awaiting further trial. Although he was also exhausted, he still forced himself to exchange pleasantries with Li Zhiye.

"Chief Li, let's go to the dormitory and rest for a night. After we have rested up, we will try these people tomorrow morning."

Liu Zhiye nodded after hearing this. After the excitement wore off, he also felt a little tired.

"Then we will follow Chief Li's arrangements!"

In the district bureau's dormitory, they each found a bed and fell into a deep sleep.
----

Vertical sun.

A night's rest restored their energy and prepared them to face the challenges of a new day's work.

In the interrogation room of the branch, Liu Zhiye, Section Chief Li and others were interrogating Lao Ge.

As an experienced veteran, Lao Ge did not give in easily when facing interrogation.

Section Chief Li asked seriously: "Do you know why we arrested you?"

Old Ge smiled calmly and replied calmly: "I don't know. I don't think you would arrest an honest man for no reason, right?"

Section Chief Li said coldly: "You are quite good at pretending. However, I'm afraid you will have to explain yourself today."

Liu Zhiye silently observed Lao Ge's reaction from the side. He knew that this old guy was definitely not an easy person to deal with.

So he began to analyze Lao Ge's personality and experience, trying to find a breakthrough.

After some careful consideration, Liu Zhiye asked a seemingly insignificant question: "Do you know what Shuri means?"

Old Ge was stunned. He obviously didn't expect the interrogation to start from here. He hesitated for a moment and replied, "Isn't it referring to tomorrow?"

Liu Zhiye smiled and continued to ask: "Then do you know that it has other meanings?"

Lao Ge shook his head in confusion.

Liu Zhiye explained: "In some places, Shuri also means 'later'. In other words, what are your plans for the day after tomorrow?"

"Have you ever thought about leaving?" "I'm telling you! You can only get the best treatment if you confess, otherwise you will have no future..."

"Guan Dapeng! What's going on? Do you need us to help you explain it?"

After hearing this, Lao Ge was silent for a long time, and finally said: "I...I admit that I made a mistake."

Liu Zhiye and Section Chief Li looked at each other and knew that Lao Ge had given in. The interrogation became much easier, and Lao Ge gradually confessed all the facts of his crimes.

Including how they blackmailed Guan Dapeng.

According to his confession, he had no choice but to target Guan Dapeng.

The reason why this group of remnants were able to escape the anti-gang campaign eight years ago was because they acted cautiously.

Some of them were just low-ranking characters under Fudecheng and did not become core members, so they were not targeted.

They hid themselves obediently for several years like frightened birds.

However, these people were used to a life of luxury and extravagance and could not endure the suffering of hard times, so they risked their lives.

Finally, they decided to take the risk and make another move, so they set their sights on Guan Dapeng.

Moreover, he firmly believed that even if the Guan family was angry, they would not dare to call the police because he had already figured out the details of the Guan family, and it seemed that their family was not pure and innocent.

Recalling that before liberation, he had met this man at a banquet hosted by Dongba-Zhang Dequan, where even Military Control Commission agents were present.

"Guan Tianlin and the Military Intelligence Bureau agents had a great conversation at the luxurious banquet. The atmosphere was harmonious and eye-catching. They talked and laughed, and burst out from time to time..."

"Guan Tianlin still doesn't recognize me now. After all, I was just a handyman back then. And at that time, he wasn't called Guan Tianlin, but Guan Jinlin..."

When Liu Zhiye heard this, his eyes instantly became as sharp as a knife. He thought to himself: Guan Tianlin, Guan Tianlin, I finally found your flaw. He felt excited and happy, as if he had grasped some important clue.

He then continued to interrogate Lao Ge.

"Tell me honestly, how did you let the Guan family go?" he asked again.

Old Ge hesitated for a moment, but continued, "Leader, they sent three large yellow croakers..."

He described in detail how the Guan family found them and how the matter was resolved satisfactorily, telling the whole process in detail.

Liu Zhiye asked the recorder to hand him the interrogation record and asked him to confirm and sign it.

After listening to the explanation, Liu Zhiye nodded to show his satisfaction. He knew that this interrogation had been a complete success.

Next, under the leadership of Lao Ge, they finally determined the identities and criminal facts of all the suspects.

During this process, Section Chief Li also worked with Liu Zhiye to develop a detailed interrogation plan.

They first interrogated Li Qian and others, and learned some details and evidence of Lao Ge's crimes from them. This information became an important basis for their next move.

As the case became clearer, Lao Ge gradually fell into despair. He began to realize that he could no longer escape the punishment of the law. So he began to take the initiative to confess his crimes and actively cooperated with the police's investigation.

During the interrogation, Section Chief Li and Liu Zhiye also discovered some shocking facts. It turned out that Lao Ge's criminal gang was not only involved in extortion and theft, but also involved in a series of illegal activities such as gambling and prostitution. This undoubtedly brought great pressure and challenges to the public security officers.

With the end of the interrogation, Section Chief Li and Liu Zhiye also ended this tense and exciting arrest operation.

Night falls, East City Branch.

Section Chief Li and Liu Zhiye sat quietly in the office, reviewing their experiences of the day.

They know that this is just an episode in their careers and there will be more challenges in the future. But they firmly believe that as long as they stick to justice and the law, they will be able to overcome all difficulties and make greater contributions to maintaining social order.
