Chapter 136: The Man Behind the Scenes
The editor-in-chief was thinking about things at work while walking towards the community where he lived.
The provincial capital city in the cold winter, the bright lights on the spacious road, the pedestrians on the road are scarce, and the vehicles are also sparse, the city at that time because of the private cars are still a few, so the traffic flow on the road at night is much less, unlike now, whether it is a large or small city, or even some developed counties, there is traffic everywhere, and you can see the phenomenon of traffic jams everywhere.
It's the night of the city in that era, which is relatively not very lively, and it is still in a not very busy street.
The editor-in-chief will also look around from time to time and look back.
Just as he looked back for the third time, an extremely slow sedan caught his eye.
The car couldn't do without his attention, the few cars on the road were driving normally past him or overtaking him, and the car about fifty meters behind him was almost as slow as his pace, and the headlights that should have been bright were also turned off at this time.
This can't help but feel strange to the editor-in-chief, the editor-in-chief looked around, there were no pedestrians walking alone on the sidewalk, except for flower beds and fences, even the roadside trees were not very tall, and he also knew in his heart that the police station was also far away from here, and it was too late for him to run over.
Is the plot really coming? His heart beat suddenly, and his mind was rushing towards a solution, and the pace involuntarily accelerated, while stabilizing his emotions and beating heart, trying to calm himself down, his right hand also reached into his bag and took out the anti-wolf water that had been prepared for the guys who were hurting people by the secret arrow.
Looking at the fact that it was still about five or six minutes away from the residential area where I lived, I wondered if I should run.
At this time, the sedan had already accelerated and was heading towards the editor-in-chief, just a few dozen meters, and soon caught up with him and stopped on the side of the road not far from him.
Without waiting for the car door to open, the editor-in-chief had already started to run, and glanced back at the car, he meant to remember the license plate of the car, and this look completely understood that the other party was coming at him, and he had already prepared, and the license plate position on the car was empty.
He no longer hesitated, and began to run desperately, clutching the bottle of anti-wolf water that could save his life at any time.
Just as he started running, the car door opened, and two people who were dressed very well got out of it, and when they got out of the car, each with a baseball bat in their hands, saw that the editor-in-chief had run out for more than ten meters, and then began to run too, chasing after him.
Not far behind the car, a taxi was also speeding towards this side.
The editor-in-chief ran hard while thinking about countermeasures, he didn't look back, and when he heard the footsteps, he judged that it was two people, and there was still some distance, but he didn't see what kind of murder weapon the other party used.
Just as the editor-in-chief racked his brains to think of a countermeasure, a taxi with flashing headlights overtook him, and a sharp brake sound pierced the quiet night sky.
The editor-in-chief was horrified, worried that the other party's helpers had intercepted him.
As soon as the car stopped, the four doors opened at the same time, and the people inside did not come down at all, but rushed out, and one of them shouted "Editor-in-chief, come here!"
Listening to the voice is none other than Xiao Du, a college student journalist.
Several people around him also shouted: "Editor-in-chief, don't panic, we're here!"
The person in the driver's position, who came down a little slowly, held a U-shaped iron lock that locked the steering wheel in his hand, and also ran over to this side.
The two people behind the editor-in-chief would have been able to catch up with the editor-in-chief in front of them in a few seconds, but when they saw the sudden change in the situation, the speed slowed down, and four or five young people came at once, and the speed just came down, and then they saw that the other party was bare-handed, so they accelerated to catch up again.
When the editor-in-chief saw that the helper was coming, he stopped, took a breath, turned around, and faced the two vicious gangsters, looking at the two people who ran to the front with righteous and awe-inspiring eyes.
The two gangsters slowed down when they ran closer, and saw everyone standing beside the editor-in-chief in a fan-shape, forming a semi-encirclement posture against them.
The two men looked at each other for a moment, and the baseball bat in their hands tightened, and the next step was to force the attack.
The driver master held the iron lock in his hand, close to the editor-in-chief, ready to attack at any time.
Xiao Du shouted at this time: "Don't panic, don't be afraid, there are just two of them, dare to do it, let's all go up together and catch them!"
The two gangsters, after thinking for a while, took a few steps forward, and were about to raise their weapons and start attacking.
Suddenly, a mist with a stimulating smell thought of them spraying head-on, not only pungent and spicy eyes, but also accompanied by the strong smell of chili water, both of them subconsciously used their hands to cover the dense fog that they didn't know where it came from, and their eyes were blocked by their arms.
The editor-in-chief was the first to rush forward and shouted, "Catch them!"
Xiao Du followed closely and pounced, everyone worked together to come forward and surround the two people in the middle, the weapons of the two people suddenly lost their effect, and the editor-in-chief also hurt themselves regardless of the dense fog just now, some grabbed each other's sticks and arms with their hands, some held each other's bodies tightly with both hands to make him unable to move, and some grabbed the weapons in each other's hands.
There were many people and great strength, and the battle ended in less than a minute, and the two gangsters were pressed to the ground by several people, and the weapons in their hands had long been thrown aside.
The editor-in-chief pressed the two of them hard while instructing Xiao Du: "Untie their shoelaces!
The two people under him struggled with all their might, but the disparity in strength was too great, so they could only writhe on the ground in vain, and soon their hands were tied, and the shoes on their feet were kicked off.
After tying it up, the editor-in-chief loosened the belts of the two people again, so as to prevent the two people from escaping on the road, and the people whose hands were tied who couldn't even lift their pants really couldn't run, and they were barefoot.
After a period of intense work, several well-mannered reporters and a taxi driver who helped them with all their might finally subdued the two armed gangsters.
The editor-in-chief really took a breath at this time, put the anti-wolf water in his hand into his bag and said, "It still came in handy at the critical moment." ”
Xiao Du smiled and said, "The editor-in-chief has also been prepared for a long time, so it's best." ”
The editor-in-chief said: "I have to guard against it, in our line of work, if you don't stand on the side of justice, you have to go along with them, choose justice, and beware of villains." Xiao Du, just make a phone call to the police, and we'll wait for them here. ”
Xiao Du agreed, and took out the phone to call the police.
The editor-in-chief sat on the edge of the flower pond with his buttocks, and he was even frightened, and he was tired from a burst of vigorous exercise.
Several young reporters stood next to the two gangsters, watching them on the ground screaming and scolding unconvinced. The car in the distance was long gone.
When the editor-in-chief saw that Xiao Du had finished calling, he gasped heavily and asked, "Why are you back again?" Did you find something?"
Xiao Du said: "Seeing that you left by yourself, I also followed them to the car, and I have been unsteady in my heart when I got in the car, so I discussed with them and said that we should follow the editor-in-chief slowly, and send it home, let's go back, in fact, I have been beating the drum in my heart." They all understood it in their hearts, and they agreed unanimously. I asked the driver to turn around and go back to follow you, and when our conversation driver master heard it, he asked the editor-in-chief of what magazine? I said our newspaper, as soon as I heard that it was you, the driver said that you also helped them taxi drivers, published an article in the newspaper calling for the protection of the legitimate rights of taxi drivers, called for the protection of the personal safety of our taxi drivers, let the public security department set up security checkpoints in and out of the city, and vigorously cracked down on criminals who robbed taxis, the city's taxi drivers know that the editor-in-chief is a reporter who is wholeheartedly good for the people, but I have never seen the editor-in-chief, and I want to find an opportunity to thank you collectively, he is very willing to cooperate with us, we followed a period and found this car, we were all vigilant, saw them accelerate to catch up with you, we also immediately caught up, it was timelyso that they didn't hurt you!"
When the editor-in-chief heard this, he stood up hard, held Xiao Du's hand and said, "Thank you, it's not your good intentions, I'm afraid I'm going to suffer today." ”
He also grasped the hand of the taxi driver: "Thank you for the master's rescue, what I did was what I should do, and what you did was righteous and courageous!"
As he was talking, the police car with its lights flashing arrived.
This incident has aroused great attention from the police, and even alarmed the senior leaders, who have specially instructed: We must resolutely investigate and deal with the evil forces that dare to retaliate against the reporters and the masses who speak out in righteousness, and resolutely pull the black hand behind the scenes into the public, and do not allow the hand of darkness to disturb the normal life under the sun!
Three days later, the public security organs called the editor-in-chief: the mastermind behind the scenes has been found out, that is, a forced demolition gang and the son of a high-ranking official exposed by the editor-in-chief, the two of them are colluding and embarrassed to do the trick, they gave Ma Zai's order is very simple is to discount the editor-in-chief's legs, give him an unforgettable lesson, the three Ma Zai took turns to follow and monitor the editor-in-chief for several months, and finally seized the opportunity to prepare to commit a crime, and the bankruptcy of the conspiracy also completely exposed the mastermind behind the scenes to the sun.
After listening to this, the editor-in-chief smiled with satisfaction.
Uncle's 'triplets' daughters can already leave the walker and walk crookedly on their own, the three little ones are like flapping wings all day long and want to fly, seeing their brothers and sisters playing games and doing activities behind people's buttocks, whether they take them to play or not, they, three are at least two adults following them, and grandma herself said: "Ouch, three naughty bags, can you live in peace for a while, and make grandma's old arms and legs tired." ”
That being said, I had to run as I should, and when I picked them up, I wanted to come down with a chirp.
The hardest thing is still Aunt Yan, one person's milk is not enough for the three little guys, so they had to wean them early, and the milk from Wu Lao's family in the village is guaranteed to be supplied.
