They knew that Qin Yize was a person who had made significant contributions to the country.
Therefore, they could not allow such a man to suffer an unjust accusation.
So, they immediately went to the Southeast Bureau to thoroughly explain the situation.
Even if doing so meant they would end up in prison, they did not regret it.
Thus, they arrived at the police station of the Southeast Bureau.
Unexpectedly, they weren’t the only ones with this idea; everyone else felt the same.
All eighteen people were of this mindset.
This group included some community cadres and retired workers, all of whom were trustworthy and of good character.
Although they had changed their statements, the group had unified their story, and it wasn’t intentional perjury.
Even though the content of the testimony varied before and now, due to the urgency and importance of the situation, and since the testimony was very timely, they were simply admonished and released—after all, it was not right to actually imprison these eighteen elderly people.
The secrets involved would be dealt with by the relevant departments.
Moreover, for some unknown reason, the force that was vehemently suppressing Qin Yize had mysteriously disappeared.
Under the testimony of these eighteen citizens,
Qin Yize walked out of the detention center’s walls unscathed.
He was still the captain of the special squad.
And he was still the youngest commander at the New Hua Country Economic and Technological Center Base.
This incident had not caused any adverse effects on Qin Yize.
To soothe Qin Yize, his superiors provided him with a considerable amount of compensation.
After all, such talent was very important to the nation.
That he was still entrusted after going through such an ordeal was evident.
At this juncture, new evidence was provided.
It turned out that Qin Lang and Qin Yishan had been deceived.
The contract they were shown was fake.
The real contract bore the signature of the second party.
They had indeed been involved in smuggling.
However, the amount was not substantial, and the goods they smuggled were different from those on the five ships.
They were part of two separate operations.
This also matched the confessions they had given.
Hence, Qin Lang and Qin Yishan were used as scapegoats, unknowingly.
Because they were unaware of the true situation.
As for the goods in Qin Yize’s shop, thieves had duplicated the keys and sneaked the smuggled goods inside without Qin Yize’s knowledge.
Regarding the thief and the person who placed the items, they would be dealt with separately.
However, the smuggled goods were confiscated.
Qin Song naturally regained his position and continued working at his original post.
While Qin Lang and Qin Yishan were not released immediately, their lives were spared.
According to insider information, because they had provided valuable information, they would not be severely sentenced.
If handled well, a light sentence with a suspended sentence was not out of the question.
No matter what, for the Qin Family, after such dramatic ups and downs, this was a perfect ending.
This was the second point.
The only heartrending thing was that Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize had already divorced before this.
Grandma Qin even thought to herself, if only Qiaoqiao had waited a few more days, would this have happened?
But these were just her thoughts.
On that day, Gu Qingfeng and Gu Qiaoqiao trampled the Qin Family’s dignity underfoot.
Later, in the detention center, they brought up a divorce, striking at their grandson who had fallen into the nadir of his life without any mercy.
It is said that after Gu Qiaoqiao left, Qin Yize did not speak, sleep, or eat for two days and nights.
When he came out, he was a shadow of his former self.
And all this was not because of the treatment in the detention center, but because of Gu Qiaoqiao.
