At this moment, in the warden's office.

He Yong was standing by the windowsill smoking. The ashtray in front of him was already filled with all kinds of cigarette butts.

At the bookcase behind him, Deputy Warden Wei Ting was looking for something in a pile of documents.

"Have you found it?" He Yong would turn around and ask from time to time.

"He Jian, no!" Wei Ting would answer immediately.

As time went on, Wei Ting's patience wore off, and He Yong's mood became more and more anxious.

"Have you found it?" He Yong put out his cigarette in the ashtray, turned around and walked over.

"No!" Wei Ting shook his head again, ready to give up: "He Jian, I remember there was a special folder for the roster of logistics personnel. How come I can't find it? I've looked through everything!"

"It's been too long, more than ten or twenty years. Who knew they'd still be around?" He Yong walked over and flipped through it, expressing frustration. "Just be honest with Political Commissar Wang. The family situations of those logistics staff can be easily understood."

"Supervisor He, if I ask directly, won't that arouse suspicion? Now that the investigation team is gone, it's going to be hard to manage these people! They're all veteran employees, and they have feelings for us! It's bound to leave some lingering feelings..."

He Yong frowned and said, "What can I do? Who asked Shen Yujing to commit this crime? Now the Public Security Commission, the Discipline Inspection Commission, and the Procuratorate are investigating. I didn't personally go to ask them whether they had done anything wrong. I'm giving them face! What's wrong with cooperating with the investigation?"

"I understand, Warden He!" Wei Ting quickly agreed, pulling another cigarette from his pocket and handing it to him, wondering, "But what's that Consultant Li trying to do by asking us to provide a social and family survey on prison logistics right now? Could he be suspecting this case was perpetrated by the family?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" He Yong suddenly became serious: "Our prison is notoriously strict! How can anyone come in and out at will without permission? Impossible!"

"Yes, yes, Supervisor He is right!" Wei Ting immediately smiled awkwardly and quickly agreed, "Then I'll report this to the Political Commissar. We still need him to help mediate this matter. After all, the list is missing. If the police find out, they might accuse us of not cooperating with their investigation..."

"Yeah!" He Yong flicked the ash off his cigarette and waved his hand.

Wei Ting nodded and turned to leave.

"Hey, wait a minute!" He Yong called him again, "I'll go over and tell them myself!"

"He Jian, this..."

He Yong put out his cigarette. "Political Commissar Wang is in charge of ideological work after all. If you didn't know how to turn things around, you'd definitely be criticized!"

"He Jian, you are right!" Wei Ting showed bitterness on his face.

"Go check on the progress of Consultant Li and his team's investigation!"

He Yong waved his hand, walked out of the office, crossed the corridor of the management area, walked to the door of the last room and knocked. When he heard any movement inside, he immediately opened the door and went in with a smile on his face.

"Political Commissar Wang! Are you busy?"

Wang Hebing was standing behind his desk, looking at the floor plan of the prison. He was wearing reading glasses and drawing something on it with a pencil in his hand. When he saw He Yong come in, he was a little surprised and quickly put down his pen.

"Hey, He Jian, why are you here? Come and sit down! You don't usually come to my place!"

As he spoke, I quickly poured him some tea.

"Hey, Political Commissar Wang, I want to come too, but you know, prison work is detailed and complicated, and I really can't get away! Otherwise, I would definitely stay here with you every day!" He Yong took the tea, thanked him, and sat down, while looking at Wang Hebing's table.

Noticing his gaze, Wang Hebing chuckled and said, "Advisor Li's investigation hasn't been going well lately, and I wanted to help find a way out. After all, it's the prison that's causing the problem, so I have to help out and contribute my own strength. Otherwise, it'll be bad if they criticize me!"

He Yong nodded quickly after hearing these suggestive words: "The political commissar is right. We are already in the wrong. If we don't produce some results, the higher-ups will accuse us of being lazy!"

"Supervisor He, our starting point is the same. I believe that the higher-ups and Consultant Li can see our sincerity!" Wang Hebing also smiled while drinking tea.

Having said that, I have actually said everything that should be said and also touched upon what should not be said.

Generally, smart people will state their purpose at the right time.

The two have been partners for more than ten years, so they still have some tacit understanding.

He Yong sighed and said helplessly: "Old Wang, to be honest, I have to admit my mistake to you!"

"He Jian, where did this mistake come from?" Wang Hebing was stunned, with an extremely urgent expression on his face.

"Advisor Li asked the police to get a social relations investigation of the logistics personnel who came into the prison twenty years ago! It's been so long, and the information hasn't been touched since they registered! I searched today, but couldn't find any information. I don't know if it was lost during the prison expansion or stashed away somewhere, but I can't find it..."

"..."

Hearing this, Wang Hebing was shocked.

Qincheng Prison's status is one of the best in the entire Dragon Country.

The staff here must undergo strict political review to ensure that there are no problems before they can be employed.

This social relationship investigation was part of the original political review. What if this information is lost!

That means the entire political review materials are gone!

This information has been retained to provide evidence for investigation in case something happens later.

But now, the information is gone just when I need it?

This is a major management error!

How could such a coincidence happen in the world?

Wang Hebing glanced at He Yong in surprise, wondering why he came.

Needless to say, he came in person to admit his mistake, so his purpose was definitely not that simple!

This is probably because he knows that I have some say over Li Xiangnan and the others, so he asked me to be a lobbyist and find a way to plug this hole first!

"He Jian! You're so confused! How could this information disappear? If it disappeared during a routine inspection, it would be fine. But now it's a joint investigation between the Public Security Bureau, the Inspection Commission, and the Discipline Inspection Commission. This is a serious case entrusted by Leader Song. You know how important Shen Yujing is! How can I cover for you if you tell me this?"

Wang Hebing immediately stood up, put his hands on his hips seriously, and expressed his attitude.

Seeing him furious, He Yong quickly stepped forward and grabbed his old partner's arm, "Old Wang, calm down! I really didn't do my job well enough, and now I'm not coming here to apologize. I want you to work together to find a solution!"

"..."

When He Yong showed his compromising attitude, Wang Hebing had no place to vent his anger!

The main thing is that what this guy said is right. The most urgent thing now is not only to find the information, but also how to explain this matter to Consultant Li and others!

and also!

An idea suddenly popped up in Wang Hebing's mind.

What was Consultant Li thinking of? Why did he suddenly want to check the social relations of the prison logistics staff?

Did he suspect that someone had used their family connections to sneak into the prison and kill Shen Yujing?

If this is possible, then prison...

What the hell!

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Wang Hebing broke out in a cold sweat.

A thousand-mile embankment was destroyed by an ant nest.

The management of Qincheng Prison must have been corroded into pieces by such a small hole, right?

"Where is Consultant Li?" Wang Hebing was now looking at the head of the prison, feeling extremely angry.

"The case should be handled in the interrogation room..."

"Supervisor He, quickly have the administrative department find the information. If they can't find it, something terrible will happen! I'll go explain this to Consultant Li! But I won't shoulder the responsibility for you, so be prepared!"

Wang Hebing returned to the table, put away all the floor plans, and left in a hurry.

"Yes, yes, Lao Wang, thank you so much for troubling you! I will make sure to hurry up and make arrangements!"

Fine beads of sweat also seeped out of He Yong's face, and he looked like he had been fished out of the water.

He had a premonition from Wang Hebing's attitude that this small matter of the social relationship table might have a bigger connection behind it.

"What will be found out?" He Yong couldn't figure it out, scratching his head and going back to the office.

Wang Hebing hurried to the interrogation area, but when he asked where Consultant Li had gone, he was stunned to hear that he had gone to the solitary confinement building.

He hurriedly ran towards the prison building area. When he reached the door, he happened to see Li Xiangnan squatting in front of the biogas tank in front of prison building No. 14, observing something.

"Advisor Li!" he called out hurriedly.

Li Xiangnan stood up and prepared to enter the building when he suddenly saw him and smiled. "Political Commissar Wang, you've arrived just in time. Excuse me, who is imprisoned in Building 14?"

"..."

Hearing this, Wang Hebing was shocked and stopped subconsciously.
