That night, An was in the military headquarters.
An Zecheng was sitting in his office, looking through a portion of the investigation report on Gu Baishun that had been sent to him.
At this time, about ten hours had passed since Gu Baishun was secretly controlled. During this period, the military intelligence department of the An system was operating almost non-stop, conducting more in-depth evidence collection and investigation.
An Zecheng looked at these investigation reports with a frown on his face and an extremely complicated expression.
“Boom boom boom.”
Around seven in the evening, there was a knock on the office door. An Zecheng was flipping through the documents and said without even looking up, "Come in."
Liu Hongxu pushed the door open and walked in, holding a new stack of evidence chain documents in his hand, and gently placed them on An Zecheng's desk: "Commander, all the investigation and verification evidence is here."
"Yes." An Zecheng picked up the documents, flipped through them quickly, and then asked, "Where is the confession?"
Liu Hongxu shook his head slightly: "We still haven't got Guo Zhengdao's confession, but we have confessions from others."
An Zecheng nodded and didn't say anything more.
After a brief review, An Zecheng sorted out the evidence, held it in his hand, stood up and said, "Let's go and meet Gu Baishun."
"good."
Liu Hongxu immediately followed, and the two left the office and came to a lounge.
Through the glass of the lounge, one could see Gu Baishun sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed. On the table in front of him were some snacks, tea, and even some magazines and newspapers to help him pass the time.
At this time, Gu Baishun did not show any nervousness on his face. He was drinking tea and reading a magazine.
Standing at the door, An Zecheng glanced at him, then waved at Liu Hongxu: "You don't have to go in."
Liu Hongxu was stunned for a moment, but still nodded and stood aside quietly waiting.
An Zecheng pushed the door open and walked in alone. Gu Baishun looked up at him and greeted him politely, "General An."
"Yeah." An Zecheng nodded, sat on the sofa opposite Gu Baishun, and looked at him deeply.
Gu Baishun was calm and composed. He put away the magazine and waited calmly for questions.
After thinking for a while, An Zecheng said pointedly, "After Liuzi left, I met you twice. These two meetings were really like heaven and earth."
Gu Baishun smiled and said, "That's normal. This is the current situation in Longcheng."
An Zecheng gently placed the information in his hand on the table, then crossed his legs, put his hands on his legs, and slowly asked, "Don't you have anything you want to tell me?"
Gu Baishun leaned forward, holding his chin with his left hand, and said very naturally: "You should speak."
An Zecheng observed Gu Baishun's expression and found that his steadiness and calmness were not fake. Among the young people An Zecheng had met, apart from Su Tianyu, the only one who could remain so calm at such a time was Director Gu.
After thinking for a while, An Zecheng reached out his hand and gently patted the pile of evidence documents on the table: "Then let's talk about the problem between you and Zhang Yuan first. Including the money, and the relationship between him and Guo Zhengdao, and the relationship between him and you."
"You checked it pretty quickly." Gu Baishun couldn't help but nodded: "So, you should have found out the flow of funds between the National Bureau of Statistics and Zhang Yuan, right?"
An Zecheng looked at him without saying anything.
Gu Baishun smiled and continued, "That's right, Commander An, let me ask you a question. If you were me, and you wanted to set up such a scheme and use someone like Zhang Yuan, would you give him money from the Quantong Bureau? Would you let your right-hand man, Guo Zhengdao, go meet him? And in Longcheng?"
An Zecheng frowned, looked at Gu Baishun's expression carefully, and still said nothing.
Gu Baishun said calmly: "If I really want to do this, can't I afford it myself? Why do I need to go through the account of the National Bureau of Statistics?"
An Zecheng looked at him and replied softly: "Go on."
Gu Baishun paused for a moment and began to explain, "Zhang Yuan's situation is actually very simple. He is just an enemy military intelligence informant that I came into contact with during my normal work. At the beginning, I had an outside military intelligence officer who belonged to Group 3 of Area 1. He was a person I trusted. This Zhang Yuan was the person he sent over. And I also thought that Zhang Yuan was useful, so I wanted to persuade him to defect, and he was also willing to contact me. Not only did Guo Zhengdao meet him, but I also met him twice, in the teahouse you found."
Gu Baishun said, picked up the teacup, drank a sip of tea, moistened his throat and continued: "Look, since we want to recruit an important informant, we must pay. This money is needed for work, so it must be taken from the informant development funds of the Quantong Bureau, a total of 6 million. The price is a bit high, but according to Zhang Yuan's level and his work experience in the Central Bureau and the Qingyi Bureau, I personally think this amount is acceptable. As for the so-called solid evidence that Kong Zhenghui has tracked all the way, what can it prove? Zhang Yuan is a triple spy who takes money from everyone. Finding out his relationship with me, can it prove that I set up this trap?"
Gu Baishun's explanation was clear and logical.
An Zecheng was not moved by these words. He intervened and looked at Gu Baishun, and continued to ask: "What about He Yan? What did he say?"
Gu Baishun said as a matter of course: "He Yan's matter is even clearer. He was just a bait put out in the open. In the whole incident, he was responsible for leading the rhythm and luring people into the trap. Not to mention our internal people, even outsiders know that I have a grudge against Yu Mingyuan, the Yu family, and even the entire old team of Huatonghui. Therefore, as long as the opponent has a little brain, he will not directly put the conflict on me, which will make people suspicious. So the best way is to push the rift. Whoever I have a conflict with, I will use him as bait first! Kong Zhenghui didn't like me in the first place, and I investigated his brother. The rift party was wronged, and they made a so-called Jedi counterattack, and then traced the case back to me... Does this look real? Haha!"
Gu Baishun said it lightly, but there was a hint of sarcasm between the lines.
An Zecheng stared at him without looking away and asked, "Anything else?"
Gu Baishun was a little surprised: "What else? What else?"
An Zecheng intervened and looked at him. After a long silence, he stretched his neck and shouted, "Bring that man in!"
"Okay." Liu Hongxu outside the door replied.
Gu Baishun couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
…
At the same time, China District.
Wu Han left Meng Xi's residence, took out his cell phone, and called Jiang Zhou: "Now that we've finished talking here, I'm going to Longcheng."
