Darkest Action

On the second day after Yao Yongchang was arrested, Meng Ran went to the Huangjiang Detention Center in person.In an interrogation room, Yao Yongchang, wearing a prison uniform and handcuffed, was seen through the iron bars.

"You're still here." Yao Yongchang sat on an iron chair for interrogation, looking at Meng Ran outside the iron fence.

"I didn't come here to interrogate you." Meng Ran leaned against the wall with a solemn tone, "I'm a policeman, and my duty is to collect and arrest you. You are involved in duty-related crimes, and the police have no right to interrogate you. The Supreme Procuratorate and the Supervision Commission have sent commissioners to Huangjiang, and they will escort you back to Beijing tomorrow."

Yao Yongchang was impatient, and suddenly changed the subject: "Can I have a cigarette?"

"Smoking is prohibited in the detention center." Meng Ran flatly refused.

Yao Yongchang couldn't help laughing: "You are really interesting! Although the roots are not upright and the seedlings are not popular, you abide by the law and are strict with yourself. In the later stage, you are even more courageous, resourceful, and ruthless. That highly regarded talent."

Meng Ran ignored the other party's remarks and brought the conversation back to himself: "I came to tell you that the Supreme Procuratorate has interrogated the first batch of members arrested on the freighter, and has achieved phased results. Your son Yao Yi Xian has also truthfully confessed that you have abused power and endangered national security for more than ten years. In addition, the Annei team has submitted a large amount of criminal evidence to the prosecution. Toss yourself and waste too much interrogation time."

Yao Yongchang on the iron chair listened quietly, his sharp eyes looked at Meng Ran with great interest, and suddenly he said irrelevantly: "You are wearing this police uniform with tassels on the shoulders. very nice."

Seeing Meng Ran who was outside the iron fence looked stunned, Yao Yongchang continued on his own: "You are not like me, and I seldom wear a police uniform. Do you know why? Because only you can climb up with great difficulty." People need to show their identity to outsiders all the time, and I don't need it at all!"

Yao Yongchang fell into his own narration, and continued unhurriedly: "My grandfather was originally the commander-in-chief of a certain group army in the fifth war zone, and he was one of the top ten famous generals in the Anti-Japanese War. From 1937 to 1940, he He has participated in famous battles such as the Battle of Linyi, the Battle of Xuzhou, the Battle of Wuhan, the Battle of Suizao, and the Battle of Zaoyi. To put it bluntly, from your generation to your grandparents, it was my grandfather who A group of people defended it with their lives.

"In 1940, my grandfather fought bloody battles with the Japanese army in Xiangyang, and no one surrendered. As a commander, he also rushed to the front line, and unfortunately died in the battle. My father was originally an excellent In the early years, he studied in the Soviet Union and majored in nuclear energy engineering. After my grandfather died for the country, my father resolutely abandoned research and joined the army. The team he belonged to drove away the Japanese invaders and the Republic of China government. I met and fell in love with my mother who was a field nurse on the battlefield... The reason why I tell you this is to let you know what kind of person you are facing."

Yao Yongchang closed his eyes, and took a deep breath: "The Yao family is self-aware, and it is out-and-out loyal and good for three generations. Its bones are all blood for the country and the people. I inherited it from my father's generation. Their brains, genes, looks, and the spirit of loving this country. Unfortunately, I didn’t expect my generation to fail in the end, and I was defeated by you stupid fools who have no eyes and no ears!”

Speaking of this, Yao Yongchang suddenly opened his eyes and stared straight at Meng Ran: "Don't you want to know why Qi Rui didn't come back? Who do you think killed him? Is it me? Or my son Yao Yixian Wrong! The one who really wanted his life was the authorities! It was the conspirator in the north who forced you to sacrifice your life and betrayed you at the same time!

"What do you think is politics? It's too superficial and ridiculous to define politics in terms of right and wrong, good and evil! A commoner like you, even if you struggle all your life, you can only choose one position. What are you doing?" You can’t decide, you can only be determined by that position. But don’t think that your position represents fairness and justice. Soon you will find that without me, Yao Yongchang, this country is still unfair and still lacks justice!

"What do you think power is? It can make many people bow down to you with one call. Is it that simple? If you define power in this way, you can only be said to be naive and superficial! If you are willing to continue to be cruel and flatter Flatter and continue to be used by him, you can maintain this naive and superficial illusion for a long time. But the power I am after is much deeper and greater. I hope that I can guide the hearts of the people in this country, so that fairness and justice shine like the sun earth.

"The one you follow is doing too badly, isn't he? Take a look at today's society, materialistic, greedy, ignorant and fearless, stupid, cowardly and incompetent, without eyes and ears, loyal and self-interested... As a government official, don't you feel anxious when you see this?"

Meng Ran, who was outside the iron fence, quietly watched Yao Yongchang, who was gradually going mad, without responding or interrupting, listening to him continue to say: "The reason why Qi Rui will die is because he knows too much! Before throwing him into the sea, I completely ended his life, but I just wanted to take a gamble! So, I deliberately told him the truth about the Jingu nuclear explosion! Just to see if his life is hard enough Is it enough for him to witness for himself how the organization he gave his life for abandoned him?

"Meng Ran, all the conversations I have with you here will be fully recorded. I will not harm you, I will keep you. Once I tell you the truth about the Jingu case like I told Qi Rui. Before you have obtained You will also be silenced before the absolute trust of the high-level. Therefore, I will never do that. I want you to walk out of this dark place with doubts, to see it with your own eyes, ask it with your own mouth, and listen to it with your own ears. Listen, look for it with your own hands... In whose hands did your Qi Rui die?

"As for myself, I know my end better than anyone else. The judge in the north will not let his judge sentence me to death. He wants to show his benevolence and righteousness. He wants everyone to believe that he is magnanimous. I am despicable. Shameless and unforgivable crime, he will give me a life sentence at most, but he will not let me live for a long time. After you walk out of here, you must think over what I just said, and remember that I am a descendant of a martyr!

"I must let you know how wrong and failed your choice is. I will never commit suicide, and my body does not have any hidden diseases, but I will never get out of the prison he set for me. I will stay there Die in a life sentence, that is the best ending he set for me and himself! Wait and see, Meng Ran!"

The author says:

As the same villain, Yao Yongchang is very different from Qi Zeyang in terms of background, motivation, and structure.I like this monologue very much. He wants to plant the seeds of doubt in Meng Ran's heart.Looking forward to seeing another wonderful comment today, which resonates with me.
