Noon.
In the interrogation room of the Inspection Bureau, although Tang Baiqing was not handcuffed or locked in an iron cage, his mobile phone, documents and other personal belongings were all searched away. Moreover, the person interrogating him installed two sets of law enforcement video cameras in the room, and strictly followed the interrogation regulations, sending recorders, chief interrogators, and supervisors to interrogate Tang Baiqing.
This posture is very formal. Those cadres who were removed from their posts almost faced such interrogations before being detained.
It is absolutely nonsense for Tang Baiqing to say that he is not nervous at this moment.
In the dim interrogation room, the chief interrogator looked at Tang Baiqing expressionlessly: "From now on, you have to say whatever I ask you. You must answer the questions directly, and you cannot avoid them. You don't need to explain. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Tang Baiqing nodded.
"What time did you enter the port on the day of the incident?"
"According to regulations, I entered the port at 4:30 in the afternoon."
"Okay, after you entered the port, when did you board the coast guard patrol ship?"
"At 8 o'clock in the evening, after the person who was on duty came back, I and other team members boarded the patrol ship." Tang Baiqing replied with sweat on his forehead.
"I looked at your internal shift schedule. On the day of the incident, the captain on duty should have been Huang Zhicheng. Why did he switch shifts with you that day? Did you take the initiative or did he take the initiative?" the inquisitor asked again.
Tang Baiqing hesitated for a moment: "I took the initiative to propose it, because I had something to do today, so I wanted to take a day off."
"Your entire team was rotated, that is to say, except for you, the other marine police officers in your team were also rotated." The interrogator frowned and continued to ask: "You have something to do today, do all the members of your team have something to do?"
Tang Baiqing clenched his palms: "... The marine police patrol at night requires very detailed divisions. I am not familiar with Lao Huang's people, and we don't have much tacit understanding, so the whole team was rotated. This is convenient for work, and it is not uncommon in the marine police department."
"Are you sure that you didn't deliberately change your shift and have no other purpose?"
"No!"
"Why did you repeatedly avoid the patrol area No. 4? A smuggling fishing boat that was visible to the naked eye entered the port from the front, and you didn't find it in advance? How did you divide the patrol area? Didn't you consider that your patrol plan had loopholes?" The interrogator was aggressive.
Tang Baiqing was mentally prepared before coming, but he was somewhat flustered when faced with the constant questioning from the inspectors.
Even the most amazing lies would have loopholes, not to mention that Tang Baiqing was facing professional inspectors. These people may have dealt with even department-level cadres and inspector-level cadres, so how could they be helpless against Tang Baiqing?
After more than 20 minutes of interrogation, Tang Baiqing's sweat had soaked his clothes.
…
At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Baiqing was temporarily released by the inspection department, but the other party asked him to sign a notice not to leave Longcheng in the near future and to accept summons at any time.
After leaving the inspection office, Tang Baiqing immediately returned to the unit and found the captain of the maritime police squadron above him.
In the office, Tang Baiqing closed the door and whispered to the bald captain: "Damn, the people from the Inspection Office dragged me over for questioning and asked me to sign a notice that I can't leave Longcheng in the near future. Old Wang, I think this matter is a bit serious."
The captain looked up and glanced at him, his face gloomy and silent.
"My idea is this, can we let the people of the code gang say that the gold bricks on the ship were put there by another group of bandits, which is a frame-up, so that they can only admit that they smuggled ordinary goods?" Tang Baiqing asked.
"You have no brains?!" The squadron leader frowned and replied: "How did the criminals transport nearly 400 kilograms of gold bricks to the fishing boat in just a few minutes? How do you explain the fingerprints?! Also, if the criminals left video footage at the scene, let's say that, once they publish it on any platform, the Coast Guard will be hammered to death, and the matter will become even bigger!"
Tang Baiqing pondered for a while, and continued very impatiently: "Then how about this, I call the people of the code gang and ask them to push Feng Hai out to take the blame, saying that he colluded with some of our coast guards and secretly carried out smuggling. This will get us out, and the case will be over when they get to them."
"Are you still thinking about getting yourself out now?" The squadron leader asked incredulously.
"What else?!" Tang Baiqing asked back.
The squadron leader gritted his teeth and stood up, took out two notices from his desk, stuffed them directly into Tang Baiqing's arms and shouted: "You still think you can avoid being implicated, are you sleepwalking?! Damn it, you and I have to stand up and take responsibility, understand?!"
Tang Baiqing looked down and saw the two notices in his hand, which were the suspension and review notices for him and the squadron leader, and this order was directly issued by the Coast Guard.
Tang Baiqing was confused: "What do you mean?"
"Let's not talk about whether you colluded with the Ma Gang to smuggle and sell calves. Just the fact that the smuggling ship entered the inner harbor and rushed into the estuary clearly, you and I are suspected of dereliction of duty! What do you do? You are a coast guard! The ship came in, and you didn't react at all. Is this justified?" The squadron leader also roared with an explosive mentality: "Nearly 400 kilograms of gold bricks, how big a deal is this? Your father is in trouble, you can't let it get into trouble!"
Tang Baiqing looked at the notice ordering him to suspend his duties, and his brain was full of blood, and the negative emotions in his heart kept rising.
Since he accidentally killed that woman, Tang Baiqing has never encountered a good thing!
...
Longkou, inside the main hall of the Ma Gang.
Wei Xiangzuo sat next to the old man who was nearly 60 years old, lowered his head, and said nothing.
Xu Hu walked in from outside, first burned incense in front of Guan Erye, and then shouted respectfully to the old man: "Master!"
"I only bought 300 kilograms of goods, why did it turn out to be nearly 400 kilograms in the end?" The old man asked.
Xu Hu lowered his head and did not reply for a while.
...
At about eight o'clock in the evening, Guangji Island was breezy and the stars were shining.
A group of young people sat on mats around a bonfire burning at a fixed point, and were having a party.
"I was the last one to climb the mountain today, and I have nothing to say." Bai Hongbo drank a lot, holding the microphone connected to the computer, waving his hand and shouting: "I will sing a song for everyone!"
"Stupid as a pig!" Wawa pouted and cursed in a very speechless manner: "Others have reached the mountain, and we have just reached the foot of the mountain."
"Please invite Ms. Wawa to dance with you!" Su Tianyu shouted.
Wawa stood up reluctantly, took out a pipe from his small box, adjusted his mood immediately, stood beside Bai Hongbo and said: "I'm not good at dancing, forget it, I'll play the flute for everyone."
"...!" Bai Hongbo was a little jealous when he heard this: "I personally suggest that you play a solo for me at night."
"Get lost!" Wawa cursed, waved his hands and shouted: "Brothers and sisters, let's have fun!"
...
Somewhere in District 1, two off-road vehicles with Warhammer logos passed the checkpoint and immediately headed straight for Longcheng.
In the car, a black brother frowned and cursed: "The Code Gang is a bunch of idiots. We are just short of using a nuclear aircraft carrier to escort them... but the goods still got into trouble... I simply can't understand it."
