Chapter 279: Visiting Prison

Zhao Dequan relied on sleeping with me for a night, and in the morning he wanted to go to the county detention center with me to visit prison. Hearing that I wanted to call Hao Qiang to go together, he refused to follow, grinded for a long time, and finally hid away.

Hao Qiang heard that I wanted to visit prison, shook his head like a small tree in a gale, saying that for this kind of criminal case, during the period of criminal detention, the law does not allow prison visits, and going is just a waste of time.

I ignored him, just wanting him to drive the sidecar to take me. As for whether I could visit prison, that was my own business and had nothing to do with him.

Hao Qiang looked at the sky hesitantly, hesitated for a long time, and said, "On such a cold day, you're going by sidecar? Aren't you afraid of being blown to death by the wind?"

I spread my hands helplessly and said, "I don't have a car, and I don't know how to drive. I'm satisfied to have a car to sit in, how can I care about whether there is wind or not? Don't worry, even if I'm blown to death, it's me."

Hao Qiang had no choice, entrusted two small policemen, "You go to Zhao Dequan's house in Laoyingzui, ask his family to hand over the person, if they don't hand over the person, treat it as harboring a criminal."

The two small policemen went away with orders. I thought in my heart, your grandmother, Zhao Dequan, this kid is currently in my room, perhaps flirting with Sister Xiao Mei.

Hao Qiang saw the smile on my face and said hatefully, "When I catch that son of a bitch, I'll definitely hang him up and beat him."

"Let's go, let's go." I urged him.

The director of the county detention center, Lao Mo, is almost sixty years old this year, has guarded the prison for a lifetime, started as a prison guard since he started working, and now has reached the position of director. According to his own words, he is a person who has been sentenced to forty years in prison. Other prisoners still have a day to get ahead, but he has looked forward for a lifetime and hasn't seen the end.

Lao Mo had dealt with me at the Party School. When Lao Mo came to the Party School to study, he was still a deputy director.

I went straight to Lao Mo's office, pushed open his door, and deliberately shouted, "Brother Mo, is Brother Mo here?"

Lao Mo wore reading glasses, his eyes shot out from above the lenses, seeing it was me, he hurriedly threw down the pen in his hand and smiled, "I thought who it was? It's you, brother, how come you have time to see your old brother?"

I handed him a cigarette affectionately and said, "Brother Mo, to tell you the truth, since we came out of the Party School, we haven't seen each other once, you say, do I miss you?"

Lao Mo curled his lips and said, "You miss me? You're teasing me!"

"I really miss you." I said, hugging his shoulders affectionately, pulling him to sit on the wooden sofa.

"Chen Feng, don't fool me, honestly, what's the matter?" Lao Mo didn't buy my account, seemingly seeing through my thoughts.

"Really nothing, just come to see you." I giggled, looking at his office.

Lao Mo's office looked very dilapidated, and the leg of a chair was tied with iron wire. Besides a desk and a long sofa, there was a small cabinet behind the door, on which was a thermos and a few teacups of indistinguishable colors.

Lao Mo looked at me in surprise and said, "Really nothing? It's good if there's nothing. I thought you came to find trouble."

"What trouble can I find you for!" I was still grinning, "You are a policeman, a person with a gun. I am empty-handed, what can I do."

Lao Mo got up and walked to the cabinet, took out a teacup and said, "What tea to drink?"

I teased him and said, "What good tea you have here, take it all out."

Lao Mo smiled and said, "Good tea is also this kind of tea, bad tea is also this kind of tea. Produced in Chunshan County, pure green environmentally friendly organic tea."

I said, "Then you still ask me what tea to drink, what I want to drink, you don't have here."

Lao Mo smiled and said, "You don't allow me to be polite? We can't compare with you, someone offers it! Here, I have hundreds of people with shaved heads, let alone tea, even water is hard to drink."

After pouring the tea and handing it to me, I glanced at the water with tea stalks floating in it, and I really had no appetite to drink it.

After sitting for a while, I said, "Lao Mo, how many people do you have here?"

Lao Mo looked at me and said, "More than three hundred, both men and women. Why? Want to rob the prison?"

I waved my hand and said, "These three hundred people, where are they all from?"

"From all over the world. Your Suxi, didn't you send a few people here these past few days?" Lao Mo said, feeling he had let it slip, and hurriedly stopped talking.

I caught the tail of his words and looked very surprised, "Our Suxi also has people locked up here?"

"Forget it, Chen Feng, don't go around in circles. I don't have time to go around with you, honestly, is it that you want to see someone?" Lao Mo finally lost patience and went straight to the theme.

I had to nod and said seriously, "Brother Mo, I'll just talk for five minutes."

"With whom?"

"Qian Youyu."

"No!" Lao Mo refused me directly without thinking, "That's a case of a dead person, I don't have the guts."

"I'll just talk for five minutes."

"Not even for a minute. Unless you, Town Mayor Chen, let me take off my clothes and leave, and be punished and go to hell." Lao Mo didn't loosen his mouth at all, his face was as serious as a knife couldn't cut.

"Isn't it that serious?" I said, with an incomparably sincere attitude, "I'm not here to collude, what are you afraid of."

"It's not about this. In our line of work, the discipline is strict. Except for lawyers and case handlers, no one can see unconvicted prisoners." Lao Mo spread his hands helplessly and said, "It's not that I don't want to help you, this is a matter of principle, I have no way."

"Can case handlers see?" I asked, hope appearing in my eyes.

"Yes!"

"That is to say, our Suxi police station officers can see?" I said, preparing to get up and call Hao Qiang outside.

"No. This case has been transferred to the county bureau criminal police team. Your township police station, unless there is an instruction from the bureau, cannot see people." Lao Mo straightened his collar, patted his clothes, and slowly turned behind the desk, having the posture of seeing off guests.

I was anxious in my heart and scolded, "Lao Mo, you old guy, the regulations are dead, people are alive, you dead brain!"

After scolding a few times, I felt better, and leaned over with a cheeky face and said, "Brother Mo, this matter involves tens of millions of funds, if it's not handled well, everyone will have responsibility."

Lao Mo was startled, looked at me and asked suspiciously, "What money? So much."

"I didn't lie to you! If I lie to you, I'm not a human." I swore.

Lao Mo pondered for a long time, raised his head and said, "Okay, I'll give you five minutes, but I want to be with you, not leave me for a step."

I agreed readily, fearing he would go back on his word.

Lao Mo got up and called a prison guard, asking him to bring Qian Youyu out of the prison.

A rush of footsteps, the door rang, and I saw Qian Youyu with a shaved head, his scalp still glowing with a cyan color, wearing a detention center vest, entering with his head lowered.

My heart ached, and I called out, "Old Qian."

He raised his head and saw me, hesitated for a moment, and then tears welled up in his eyes.

"You're here." He said in a hoarse voice, sat down in front of me dejectedly, put his handcuffed hands on the table in front of him, his expression decadent.

Lao Mo stood on the side and said, "You talk quickly, if it involves the case, you can't say a word, understand?"

I nodded at him and smiled gratefully.

Qian Youyu looked at me, green light appeared in his eyes and said, "Give me a cigarette."

I looked at Lao Mo, and Lao Mo nodded. I hurriedly took out a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth, hurriedly lighting it for him.

After he smoked a few cigarettes beautifully, I said, "Old Qian, let's talk less nonsense, let's get straight to the point."

He nodded, signaling me to speak.

I said, "I have decided that every household in Laoyingzui Village will have a quota to participate in the lottery for houses on the agricultural trade street."

Qian Youyu stared at me in surprise, I blinked at him, he seemed to understand my meaning, his face quickly returned to calm, waiting for me to continue.

"Zhao the Half-Immortal's matter, anyway, no one can say clearly, you just tell the truth, don't say half a lie, understand?"

Qian Youyu nodded vigorously, a look of hope appearing on his face. He spat the cigarette butt that was about to burn out onto the ground, signaling me to come again.

"I'll listen to you." Qian Youyu expressed without hesitation, "Whatever you say, we'll do. I believe you, I've handed over all 1,000 people in Laoyingzui to you."

"Good!" I comforted him, "Rest assured and reform here, I will find a way."

Qian Youyu sighed and said, "Official law is like a furnace. People are already in, no ideas."

I still wanted to continue to comfort, but the words came to my lips and swallowed them back.

Lao Mo, who was standing on the side, looked at his watch and said, "Chen Feng, forget it, you kid should be content, let's go."

He pulled me up, and the two walked toward the door.

From behind came Qian Youyu's shout, "Town Mayor Chen, help me tell Yue Bai, tell her I'm fine."

Coming out of the reception room, Lao Mo didn't keep me for dinner, saying that the food in the detention center was also unlucky, and we would sit together in the county seat another day.

I said goodbye to him and came out, seeing Hao Qiang leaning in the sidecar of the motorcycle, hanging his head without a sound. ===== CHAPTER 280 =====
