Chapter 428: The Furious Woman is Terrible
"What crime did my son Lao Xu commit?" Li Yanling asked.
Zhang Hao replied, "I have no comment on the case."
Li Yanling said angrily: "False accusation, this is absolutely a false accusation. My Lao Xu works until midnight every day for the people in the development zone, and even works hard. How could he violate the rules? Someone must be messing with him!"
"Whether this is a false accusation depends on our specific investigation results. Let's go in and search!" Zhang Hao said.
Two staff members from the procuratorate entered the room and began to search.
Zhang Hao was waiting on the side, while Li Yanling was talking about how hard and tired her husband Xu Dong was, and how many practical things he had done for the people. In Li Yanling's words, Xu Dong was a completely honest official!
After searching for more than 20 minutes, the two prosecutors who had gone in to search came out and shook their heads at Zhang Hao, saying, "We found nothing."
"Same here!"
Zhang Hao was a little surprised. Judging from the confident attitude Xu Dong had shown before, he knew that the place where he hid the stolen money must be very secret, otherwise he would not be so sure that he could not find it.
However, the two people he brought with him were both very experienced prosecutors, but they didn't find any clues.
Could it be that Xu Dong, like Zhao Dehan, the noodle master in The Name of the People, hid his money in the big house outside?
Li Yanling said at the side: "I have already said that my husband Xu has always been honest and has never violated the law or discipline. You won't find anything!"
Zhang Hao ignored Li Yanling and said, "Is there any secret compartment in the room?"
The two shook their heads at the same time.
Zhang Hao walked around the room and soon came to Xu Dong's study. Looking at the calligraphy hanging on the wall, he said, "District Chief Xu, do you like writing?"
"That's right, my husband Xu said that writing can improve one's character, so I like to write when I have nothing to do." Li Yanling said.
"District Chief Xu's handwriting is very good, and it has the style of a great master." Zhang Hao praised.
Li Yanling said proudly: "Of course, someone once offered a high price to buy my Lao Xu's calligraphy, but my Lao Xu always stuck to his bottom line and didn't sell it!"
Zhang Hao replied, "District Chief Xu truly adheres to the bottom line of being a Party member."
Then he picked up a brush on the table and said, "Do you know what the hair of this brush is made of?"
Li Yanling took a look and said, "What could it be? Porcupine hair, horsehair, wolf hair, or something like that!"
Zhang Hao shook his head and said, "Ordinary brushes are indeed made of these bristles, but District Chief Xu's brush is extraordinary!"
Li Yanling glanced at the brush in Zhang Hao's hand and said, "What's so special about it? It looks just like an ordinary brush. Are you trying to frame my old Xu?"
"Sister-in-law, you're overthinking it. We are prosecutors and we follow the law. We will not refrain from framing others."
Zhang Hao said calmly, "Sister-in-law, you see, the reason I said District Chief Xu's brush is special is because of the tip of his brush!"
Li Yanling carefully examined the brush tip, but couldn't see anything different, so she asked, "What's wrong with this brush tip?"
"This brush tip is not made of ordinary animal hair, but of some women's hair, and it is made of hair from a special place!"
"Impossible!" Li Yanling said in disbelief.
Zhang Hao said, "Sister-in-law, if you don't believe me, take a closer look."
Li Yanling looked at it carefully, and the more she looked, the more it looked like what Zhang Hao said.
His face gradually became ugly.
Zhang Hao continued, "And this hair is obviously not from the same woman. It's made up of hair from different women. And these brushes seem to be all the same. It seems District Chief Xu is quite playful."
"Different women?!" Li Yanling's face turned even more ashen.
Then she carefully observed the brushes, and sure enough, they were all different in thickness and softness. She immediately roared, "Xu Dong, you bastard, no wonder I'm asking you to pay your taxes. You keep saying you're tired or busy with work, but it turns out you've been giving it all to other women!"
The corners of Zhang Hao's mouth twitched. How the hell could he listen to this without paying?
Zhang Hao fanned the flames again, "And I heard that most of the female staff at the District Procuratorate have had affairs with District Chief Xu."
Li Yanling was like a lit powder keg, and she exploded completely.
"Xu Dong, you bastard, you are so unkind to me, so don't blame me for being unfair. You have such a beautiful wife like me, but you still have affairs with other women outside. Comrade, I want to report Xu Dong for corruption and bribery." Li Yanling said fiercely.
Zhang Hao said, "Sister-in-law, if you want to report something, you can't just rely on words. You need evidence!"
"Of course I have evidence. Come with me."
Li Yanling turned and left, followed closely by Zhang Hao and the other two.
Then I saw Li Yanling walk directly to a wall, tear the wallpaper on the wall into pieces with force, and then pick up a small knife from the ground and scrape the wall.
After the white part was scraped off, the golden part was revealed.
Li Yanling gritted her teeth and said, "This is all the money Xu Dong has embezzled and accepted bribes over the years. He exchanged it all for gold, melted it into square bricks, and built it into the wall!"
Zhang Hao nodded to the prosecutor behind him.
The two men immediately took action, walked to the wall, tore off all the wallpaper, and then used something to scrape the wall, and sure enough, a lot of gold bricks were revealed.
Zhang Hao now understood why Xu Dong lived in such an old and dilapidated building.
This kind of old and dilapidated building is quite old. Most of them are made of red bricks, and then the red bricks are replaced with gold. If Li Yanling hadn't taken the initiative to expose the information, it would probably be difficult to find out.
This method of hiding money can be said to be very clever.
Soon, both of them had almost finished demolishing the wall. Half of the wall was made of gold, which cost at least hundreds of millions.
It is shocking that a small director embezzled hundreds of millions of yuan.
"Apart from this money, Xu Dong has nothing else?" Zhang Hao asked.
An angry woman is the most terrifying, so Li Yanling said, "Yes, he also collected some wine and some luxury watches, all hidden in the cellar of his rural home!"
Zhang Hao nodded and said, "You two go with your sister-in-law and bring back the stolen goods."
"Yes!"
Two prosecutors followed Li Yanling to collect the remaining stolen goods.
Zhang Hao called Shen Hongcai and asked him to send someone here to count the value of the gold bricks on the wall.
Then he returned to the procuratorate and continued to interrogate Xu Dong. This time he had evidence, so let's see how Xu Dong would argue.
In the interrogation room.
Xu Dong looked at Zhang Hao who came in and said jokingly, "How was it? Did you come back empty-handed?"
