Chapter 14: Taking Chestnuts from the Fire

Lin Chuang went out, and Fan Yitong looked at his back, curled his lips, and said to himself: "You're a stupid donkey who only lowers his head to pull the cart, but doesn't know how to raise his head to look at the road!"

Before noon, Secretary Zong Yuwen’s phone call came to Yang Wenxuan’s office.

"Director Yang, Minister Zong is very concerned about Yuan Zuocai's case. I wonder if it has been solved?"

"Please report to Minister Zong that we already have enough evidence. Otherwise, we would not dare to arrest people from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce."

"Has Yuan Zuocai spoken? Has the stolen money been found?"

"No. However, if you give us some more time, we will definitely find the stolen money."

"Director Yang, since Yuan Zuocai has not pleaded guilty and no stolen money was found in his home, he is very likely to have been wrongly accused. If I give you a little more time, I'm afraid he will be beaten into a crime, right?"

"No, no, no, we will never dare to impose punishment unless we have certain evidence."

"Director Yang, forget it. After entering the police station, how many of them came out clean? Besides, Director Yang, don't blame me for not reminding you. Two hundred thousand French currency is really nothing, and Yuan Zuocai is

Minister Zong personally recruited him into the Ministry of Industry and Commerce."

After Yang Wenxuan digested the meaning of this sentence for a while, the secretary continued: "Director Yang, the report of Hongyuan Glass Factory is still on Minister Zong's desk. You can think about what is more serious than what is minor."

"Please tell Minister Zong that I will release him immediately!"

Two hundred thousand French currency is nothing, only Minister Zong's face is important.

What's more, the start-up report of the Hongyuan Glass Factory in which he owns shares is in the hands of Minister Zong, so Yang Wenxuan can't help but refuse to agree.

As for Vice President Gong, they can excuse it on the grounds of insufficient evidence.

Comparing the two, Yang Wenxuan certainly knows how to choose.



Lin Chuang was called to Duan Yide's office by a phone call.

"Lin Chuang, don't try the case anymore, let him go." Duan Yide said slightly apologetically.

Duan Yide knew very well that this case had actually been solved, and it was certainly inappropriate to let Lin Chuang let go at this time.

However, there was nothing he could do.

There was strong pressure from the director above, Fan Yitong from below, and the instigation of Li Qun, two close confidants, who would not allow him to say such chilling words.

Who told Lin Chuang to have a background in the Secret Service?

"...Yes!" Lin Chuang was silent for a while, obviously very reluctant, but he still agreed.

"Virgo, there is no problem in letting him go. I want to keep an eye on him for a few more days to see if I can find the stolen money." Lin Chuang continued.

"Lin Chuang, I know you are unwilling. In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that the case has been solved. However, two hundred thousand French currency is not as important as the face of a big shot. So, I don't object to you continuing to keep an eye on Yuan Zuocai, but you also

You have to think about it carefully." Duan said earnestly in German.

"I appreciate Virgo's kindness, and I won't cause any trouble to Virgo." Lin Chuang said.

These words were not polite. Lin Chuang still had great respect for Duan Yide, a superior officer, and knew that his words were for his own good.

"All right."



Yuan Zuocai was released.

After being tortured for a day and a night, Yuan Zuocai was very exhausted physically and mentally.

I endured the pain and went home, fell on the bed and fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already dark, and he only remembered the two hundred thousand French currency.

He quickly got up and looked at the main door. When he saw no one around, he closed the door tightly. He went behind the screen wall and opened the mechanism. He found that the two boxes were intact and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He was still worried, so when he opened the box and saw the neatly packed banknotes inside, he was completely relieved.

Yuan Zuocai returned to the room, had a hasty meal, lay down on the bed again, and thought about it carefully.

"Finally, it was a near miss this time. Although Lin Chuang had evidence and Xu Shouxian also made an identification, I refused to plead guilty and there was nothing he could do. Needless to say, Minister Zong did a great job this time. It must have been

He put great pressure on the police station. I guess Minister Zong also recognized that I defrauded the two hundred thousand French currency, but he didn't want to embarrass the Ministry of Industry and Commerce."

"It seems that it is difficult to stay at the Ministry of Industry and Commerce. Even if the police station no longer pursues the case, Minister Zong must think that I am a money-grubbing person. If he has this opinion in his heart, my life will not be easy at all in the future."

"Will Lin Chuang really let me go? He's such a shrewd person, he won't let me go so easily, right? Are they using a 'hanging out for a long time' strategy?"

Thinking of this, Yuan Zuocai felt frightened for his rash move to look at the cash box just now.

"Don't tell me, this possibility is very high. It seems that I have to be more careful. Anyway, the biggest difficulty has passed. As long as the identity of my Japanese agent is not exposed, it will be safe."

"There are still four days until the above request is made. Don't be in a hurry. Just observe carefully to see if there are any hidden whistles. At the same time, let this matter cool down."

Yuan Zuocai thought about it again and again, feeling that he had entered the police station without revealing any big flaws, so he fell asleep with peace of mind.



After Lin Chuang released Yuan Zuocai, he drove out of the police station and headed to the Secret Service.

He wants to meet his senior brother Hao Ligang.

Hao Ligang is also a graduate of Zhejiang Police School, one year ahead of Lin Chuang.

Because he is from Jiangshan, Zhejiang, the same hometown as Li Chunfeng, he was recruited into the Secret Service after graduation and served as deputy captain of the second team of the second group of the intelligence section, with the rank of captain.

Hao Ligang has a close relationship with Lin Chuang and Wu Liangce, and they have deep feelings.

Lin Chuang was a frequent visitor to the Secret Service. He easily entered the heavily guarded Secret Service building and arrived at Hao Ligang's office on the second floor.

"Brother, what are you busy with?" Lin Chuang came in and saw Hao Ligang frowning, staring at an official document in front of him worriedly, and hurriedly said hello.

"Xiao Zhai, if you weren't busy solving the case, why did you come to my place?"

Hao Ligang looked up and saw Lin Chuang. While saying hello, he put the official documents away and put them in a drawer.

He knew Lin Chuang's nickname and often called him that in private.

"It's hard to explain in words." Lin Chuang poured himself a cup of tea while talking about the circumstances of solving the case.

"Brother, is this tea last year's spring tea? No one honors you by ordering autumn tea?" Lin Chuang asked casually when he saw that the color of the tea in the tea box had turned black and was no longer as green and bright.

"Oh, don't mention it. The Japanese have been active in Nanjing recently. The Telecommunications Department has detected about a dozen active unknown radio stations, but our Intelligence Department has found nothing. The director is very angry. No, even the funds are given.

The Intelligence Department detained me. So, let alone new tea, it would be nice to have tea." Hao Ligang said as he sat in front of the coffee table.

"Okay, when the tea comes down tomorrow morning, brother can get you some."

"Stop talking about me, you came here this time to let Xu Shou go first, right?"

"Yes. I originally wanted to use Xu Shouxian's story to give someone named Chen some color, but now I think it's better if he doesn't give me any color." Lin Chuang sighed.
