Chapter 196 KGB Visit
Sergei was invited to the Kremlin for the 1983 "Hero of Soviet Socialist Labor " award ceremony. This is the second time that Seryozha has set foot in the office of the supreme leader since he was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union last time.
The honoring ceremonies for the "Heroes of the Soviet Union" and "Heroes of Labor" were held separately, and everyone had the opportunity to meet Mr. An individually. Everyone happily sat outside the office and waited for this glorious moment.
Although I have been preoccupied and troubled recently. But Seryozha still tried to make himself very happy, full of expectations for the honor. Although he is also the recipient of this honor, compared with other people, Seryosha is younger, and he already has a gold star medal representing the title of "Hero of the Soviet Union" on his chest, which makes Xie Liaosha even more excited. Liao Sha attracted attention.
After being called by the staff, Sergey got up and walked into Mr. An's office. When the sound of flashing lights and shutters sounded, Mr. An stood there and waited. After the two shook hands, Mr. An pinned the medal on Sergey's chest, then shook hands and took a group photo. Then Sergey turned around and left, leaving the place for the next person. It has been a while in Moscow, and Seryozha is quite familiar with this series of procedures. Although the appearance time was only a few minutes, the whole activity still took Sergesha a full day. After everyone has been awarded their medals, the Kremlin will entertain everyone with a Soviet state dinner. By the time everything is over, it is already evening.
For receiving this medal, Seryozha has mixed feelings. Objectively speaking, although Seryozha's original motives were impure, she still did a great thing for the people of Moscow. Although he has stopped all his businesses, even the sale of bearer bonds, and only kept the registered bonds as a means of financing, there is no shortage of funds for Workers' New Village. Now his bearer bonds have become one of the best-sellers on the black market. Officials wantonly buy this kind of bonds for the purpose of hiding assets. favor. Now the actual price of these bonds has far exceeded the book price and income of the bond, because many people would rather lose less and keep their ill-gotten gains.
However, when there was no warning, the KGB took the initiative to find the door.
It was the second day of the award ceremony, and Seryozha was dealing with some work matters in his office, when Nastya suddenly brought a group of people to Seryozha's office.
"I'm sorry, secretary! They claim to be members of the safety committee, and they came to you to find out about the situation!" Nastya said to Seryozha with a look of panic.
Hearing the word Safety Committee, Seryozha stopped the pen in his hand. He raised his head and looked at these people. Although his expression didn't change, he felt a little beating in his heart. Before he could speak, the other party said first, "Ulyanov, we have a few things we want to check with you. It's about something about you and the former Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Churbanov in Uzbekistan. , can I spare you a little time?"
"Okay, no problem, Nastya, get something to drink for the guests!" Seryozha hurriedly got up to greet him. The other party didn't seem to regard Seryozha as a suspect, but stepped forward to shake hands with Seryozha one by one. This reassured Seryozha immediately.
After everyone was seated, Seriosha said to them: "Every time I see comrades in the KGB, I feel very happy. If you hadn't brought me back, I'm afraid I would still be fighting the S fighters in Afghanistan!"
After Seryozha said this, the distance between everyone suddenly narrowed a lot. In this atmosphere, the other side posed the first question to Seryozha.
"Comrade Ulyanov, we have recently been investigating something about the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and according to our knowledge,
You seem to have a good relationship with Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Churbanov. He also asked you to go to Uzbekistan with him to investigate several cases there. We would like to ask you what you have experienced when you were in Uzbekistan! "
"You mean the case of Akilov, the chairman of the peasant association?" Seryozha asked rhetorically.
"No, it's not just Akilov! I believe you have read from the newspapers that this time the Uzbek Republic dug up a lot of corrupt elements, but you only dealt with one Akilov when you were in Uzbekistan. I want to know why?" The other party asked bluntly.
"I don't quite understand. In fact, the investigators who went to Uzbekistan did not include me. I was invited by Minister Churbanov. At that time, I asked him about work, but he was rejected. They were dispatched to other places, and I had no choice but to follow them brazenly!" Seryozha replied.
"Then what happened later? Why was only one Akilov found out?" the other party asked.
"We were staying in a hotel and were investigating some accounts of Uzbekistan, because we were investigating economic issues, but in the end Akilov did not attract our attention because of economic issues, but because of deliberate murder! Our colleague was stabbed to death in the street, and bullets were put on the door of our hotel! It was in this situation that we withstood the pressure and dealt with Akilov’s problem! Although the investigation team sent to Uzbekistan found more There are too many problems, but we should not blame our original work!" Serge Sha said arguing.
"Did you ever encounter active bribery when you were in Uzbekistan? I think this is unlikely!" the other party continued to ask.
"Yes, but anonymously, the purse was left at the door of the room, but we refused, so they sent us the bullets!" Seryozha replied again.
"What about the money? How did you deal with it later?" The other party still insisted on it.
"We handed it over to Rashidov, secretary of Uzbekistan. Oh, the former secretary should be called now, and the other party promised to hand over the money to the state treasury! I don't know about the rest of the matter!" Seryozha replied .
"Do you think it's possible that Rashidov was not caught out because Rashidov did something to Churbanov?" the other party asked Serezha bluntly.
"Why do you think so? Rashidov was an alternate member of the Politburo at the time. He didn't want us to do anything, just say something! And Minister Churbanov went to Uzbekistan on the assignment of the KGB. , The source of the information is mainly provided by you, Mr. An signed the final closing opinion!" Sergey Sha asked rhetorically.
