Chapter 1098: Will Give Him a Fair Evaluation!

Han Zhengyi listened patiently as Tang Ye described the events.

The entire arrest process was extremely dangerous.

A traffic accident was even caused on the road; although there were no casualties, the impact was severe.

He could not help but slap the table, angrily saying, "This Mao Yu is truly acting too recklessly."

Tang Ye also sighed, "Indeed, our arrest was not planned thoroughly enough."

Han Zhengyi waved his hand, "This has nothing to do with you. It is still a lack of understanding regarding Mao Yu. He not only lacks a sense of awe, but he has also lost his humanity. In this matter, I must reflect on myself."

Seeing Han Zhengyi take the initiative to lower his posture, Tang Ye quickly offered a ladder, "One can only say he disguised himself too well. Now that he is completely exposed, he knows he is beyond saving, which is why he is acting with such reckless abandon."

Han Zhengyi said, "I will report this matter to the higher-level departments. If there is anything that needs coordination during the interrogation of Mao Yu, communicate with me at any time."

"Understood! Thank you for your support, Secretary Han."

After hanging up the phone, Tang Ye took a deep breath.

If Mao Yu had caused greater losses during the pursuit, Han Zhengyi would certainly have been held accountable.

Tang Ye and Zheng Shaokang met Mao Yu in the Interrogation Room of the County Public Security Bureau.

Tang Ye detected a scent of alcohol coming from Mao Yu.

"You even drank alcohol!"

Mao Yu smiled, "Your nose is quite sharp. That's right, I did drink. What, do you think I care if another charge of dangerous drunk driving is added to my list?"

Zheng Shaokang almost moved to strike him, angrily saying, "You are too arrogant!"

Tang Ye stopped Zheng Shaokang and gave him a look.

Zheng Shaokang took out a photo album, "You should be very familiar with the photos in here! As for the photographer, you also know who it is, right?"

When Mao Yu saw the photos in the album, his eyes were filled with astonishment.

These photos were taken with a camera.

Inside were all the pieces of evidence of his own illegal land acquisition to help Shunteng Development Company.

This evidence was enough to ruin his reputation!

Mao Yu looked at Tang Ye in shock, "You found the negatives? Impossible. I searched many places and never found them."

Tang Ye said, "As expected, you are related to the death of County Magistrate Zhou Songtao. County Magistrate Zhou Songtao liked photography while he was alive; he accidentally discovered you having an affair and captured it with his camera."

"He used the photos to warn you not to do illegal things, but you had no intention of stopping, and together with Chen Shunfei, you cruelly murdered him and staged a fake suicide by falling from a building."

At this moment, Mao Yu's face turned pale.

The suddenly appearing photos became the final blow that destroyed his will to resist.

Corruption, bribery, keeping a mistress...

These are certainly illegal and violate discipline, but as long as one actively returns the illicit gains, one can obtain a sentence reduction.

Moreover, the assets Mao Yu embezzled were not much.

What he enjoyed were things on a spiritual level.

However, being suspected of murder.

And the victim was a County Magistrate; the charge is grave!

He had actually known all along.

This matter could not possibly be handled perfectly.

He did not expect it to be dug up so quickly.

He held his head in pain and argued in a low voice, "Zhou Songtao's death really was just an accident! At the time, Chen Shunfei took him to the rooftop to threaten him, and in the process of struggling, he accidentally fell from the building! It has nothing to do with me."

At this moment, Mao Yu collapsed.

Zheng Shaokang looked at Tang Ye, his eyes full of admiration.

Through extremely hidden clues, Tang Ye had found the darkroom studio that Zhou Songtao left behind before his death.

This became the final blow that destroyed Mao Yu's psychological defense!

Seeing that Mao Yu had completely broken down, Tang Ye sighed, "County Magistrate Zhou was killed by you; you know this better than anyone. Why has your behavior been so strange these past two months? It is because you had to endure immense pressure. You numbed your nerves with debauchery and fabricated stories."

Mao Yu stared blankly at Tang Ye, a bitter expression appearing at the corner of his mouth, "That's right, I did foresee that this day would come. I knew that you came to Yechuan County with the mission of investigating the cause of Zhou Songtao's death, which is why I was an enemy to you at every turn."

Tang Ye thought to himself, if you had kept a low profile and hidden yourself, perhaps I would not have locked onto you so quickly.

"Mao Yu, you are a Party member and were once an excellent cadre."

"You did not withstand the temptations of the outside world, fell into corruption, and became a hideous vermin."

"I hope you can find your conscience and actively cooperate with the investigation."

"This is your only chance!"

Mao Yu's eyes dimmed.

Every word of Tang Ye's had precisely grasped his psychology.

Leaving the County Public Security Bureau, Tang Ye returned to the County Party Committee Compound.

He picked up the landline and dialed Jiang Jing's number.

Jiang Jing answered the phone quickly.

"County Magistrate Tang, what is the matter?"

Tang Ye said, "Mayor Jiang, I am reporting to you the results of the investigation into Comrade Zhou Songtao."

Jiang Jing's spirit was instantly lifted, "Oh? Are there results?"

Tang Ye gave a hum, "Before his death, Zhou Songtao discovered that Mao Yu had a conflict of interest with the person in charge of a certain enterprise, and he investigated in secret, finding a lot of evidence. Fearing that the matter would be exposed, Mao Yu instigated others to force Zhou Songtao to hand over the evidence."

"Zhou Songtao refused to comply, and the perpetrators took him to the rooftop, attempting to force him to submit."

"In the process of struggling, Zhou Songtao unfortunately fell from the building."

"After the incident occurred, the perpetrator cleaned up the scene and forged traces of his suicide."

Jiang Jing took a deep breath, "That means Comrade Zhou Songtao sacrificed his life in the line of duty because he fought against evil forces!"

Tang Ye reported in a firm tone, "Yes. I also investigated County Magistrate Zhou's situation; he was incorruptible during his lifetime and made many contributions to Yechuan County. His sacrifice is a huge loss for Yechuan County."

Jiang Jing nodded slightly, "Provincial Governor Fu worked with Comrade Zhou Songtao in the past, and he still highly recognized Zhou Songtao's abilities. His death is such a pity. I will communicate this matter to Provincial Governor Fu immediately."

Hanging up the phone, Jiang Jing dialed Fu Yagang's number.

"Provincial Governor Fu, there is a matter I need to report to you. The investigation into the cause of Comrade Zhou Songtao's death has yielded results!"

Fu Yagang said, "What are the results?"

Jiang Jing said, "He sacrificed his life in the line of duty! He was brutally murdered by criminal forces!"

Fu Yagang was silent for a few seconds, then sighed with a sorrowful tone, "Although the time I worked with Comrade Zhou Songtao was not long, he was a positive and optimistic cadre. He took a set of work photos for me at the time, which I still keep to this day."

"Grassroots cadres have it tough. I will report this matter to the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee. Although Comrade Zhou Songtao has already passed away, his spirit of daring to fight against evil forces is worth our praise."

"Regarding Comrade Zhou Songtao's deeds, you must prepare a dossier."

Jiang Jing nodded slightly, "I will prepare it immediately."

Hanging up Fu Yagang's call, Jiang Jing dialed Tang Ye's phone.

Tang Ye was also waiting for Jiang Jing's reply.

"I have communicated with Provincial Governor Fu. Regarding Comrade Zhou Songtao's deeds, hurry and draft a written report. Provincial Governor Fu will submit the materials to the Provincial Party Committee, and subsequently, he will be given a fair evaluation!"

Jiang Jing's favorability increased by one hundred!

Provincial Governor Fu's favorability increased by one hundred!

Tang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, "Understood!"

After working for so long, I have finally completed this task!
