For journalists, doing a report is like falling in love, the present must be dedicated to the present, and the past is destined to become only a memory. Xiangbei has been busy with the "orphaned" report in Dongjin City in the past few days, and has long forgotten about the affairs of Luohe Village.

As far as the current situation is concerned, this matter has begun to cool down, and Xiangbei is still a little entangled, and I always feel that this matter has not come to an end, but all this is just speculation, and all the departments of Hedong City have already given notices and conclusions about all the problems of the Luohe Village arson case. Just like the carnival feast of most stakeholders and netizens, Xu Changlin got the end he deserved,

However, no one side has ever given an explanation for the deep-seated issues behind the arson, as if the matter was over.

However, a casual search to the north found that "Luohe Village Arson Case" has been included in the noun entries of several major search engines in China. No matter how forgotten, the Luohe Village incident will inevitably become a hot word on the Internet this year.

After finishing the report of "lost orphans", Xiangbei finally became idle, although this kind of leisure was only a day or two, once there was a gap in his head, which was full of various things, he had the urge to visit Luohe Village again.

Of course, he is not stunned, a man in his thirties, with a family, children, and his own life circle, everything will definitely not be as fulfilling as when he was a student. Xiangbei didn't dare to put forward his ideas to the leader, he seemed to be able to hear Yu Chongming's subtext: "Xiangbei, you still don't think the pit dug for me is not deep enough?!"

When he saw it in Xiangbei, he hoped that Yu Chongming would call him to the office and scold him fiercely, everyone would put their thoughts on the bright side, but they would make themselves feel at ease.

Now that things have come to this point, no matter how you think about it, it's all there, and the only thing you can do now is to settle it down first.

The work of a journalist is something new every day. Today I am still covering a shocking case, and tomorrow I may go to the launching ceremony of an event. This is also the wonderful place of this industry - joys, sorrows, sorrows, three religions and nine streams will be contacted.

That's really the case. At noon that day, Xiangbei had just finished his work and was going to have lunch. Yu Chongming called him to the office.

"Yushan has an accident again, there is a murder in an economic dispute, one dead and three injured, you go and take a look," Yu Chongming's tone was hurried, "This is an emergency, you have to hurry over, and you will go this afternoon! The vehicle has been arranged for you." ”

"Okay, Mr. Yu. Am I going alone, though?"

"You're an old comrade, this kind of interview shouldn't be a problem, right?" If you really want to bring people......" Yu Chongming thought for a moment, "Zhang Zhiyao's manuscript of 'orphaned' last time did a good job, and he is worthy of being a student you brought out to the north, full of 'Xiang-style style'." While the iron was hot, I arranged other interview arrangements for him. If you really can't do it, just take Luo Fangyi with you. ”

Speaking of Zhang Zhiyao, Xiang Bei thought of the situation of the last interview, and he was just about to explain to Yu Chongming, but he wanted to stop talking. Now to talk about the situation at that time, it seems a little too villainous, after all, he is still the person in charge of the text group. But if he didn't say it, he felt that this kid might cause something one day. Forget it, everyone has their own fate, I told Zhang Zhiyao last time, and it is his own business to choose how to go.

Xiang Bei walked out of the office, his heart beating a drum. What's wrong with Yu Chongming? Why did he suddenly think of me? You know, since Luohe Village reported that the turmoil happened, he has been sitting on the cold bench for a long time. There is hardly any important work to the north. Even when they met in private, Yu Chongming sometimes ignored him and looked at him coldly.

I have to admit that no one, who is mixed in the circle of the workplace, can not care about the eyes of the leader. The work arranged by Yu Chongming made Xiangbei excited, as if igniting his hope for his career.

News is an order, Xiang Bei didn't think much about it, and after reporting to his wife Zhou Xuecen, he hurriedly informed Luo Fangyi. Located in the western part of Bac Giang Province, U Son is one of the cities with the worst economic level in the province. Bringing "one" is a useful technique in the literary world, not so much for rigor, but to save some face for Yushan. The economic level of Bac Giang province as a whole has been decreasing from the eastern coastal to the western inland, like a map of the whole country.

Although the economic level is average, private lending is first-class in the province. In the urban area of Yushan City, there is a street with a distinctive "investment company". Each company was poorly equipped: a plaque, a porter, and two or three staff members. However, their ability to absorb money is full, ranging from tens of millions to hundreds of millions, all of which are savings absorbed from the private sector under the banner of high interest rates.

For this kind of thing, Xiangbei has long heard of it. In Yushan alone, if a reporter has worked for 10 or 8 years and still has no understanding of the situation in the province, he will definitely be incompetent. Where there is poverty and where there is wealth, where agriculture is good, where industry is strong, where there are customs and customs, where there are good restaurants and hotels, the veteran reporters of Beijiang Evening News know it well. Everyone even joked that it would be better to compile the food, drink and entertainment in Bac Giang Province into a book, publish and distribute it, and maybe make a fortune. As everyone knows, within a few years, sleep testers, Dianping, Meituan, etc., have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. It can be seen that practice brings true knowledge.

It takes four hours to get from Hedong to Yushan, and it was nearly evening when the two of them got there. It is impossible to eat and rest at this juncture, and if you delay even ten minutes, you may miss the best time to report.

"I have to write a manuscript tonight, or I won't be able to make a difference. "Tell to the north. Even if you are an old reporter, every interview is like a nirvana, painful and happy!

The two rushed to the investment company where the incident occurred and contacted people familiar with the matter for interviews.

The two of them were busy here, and there was another explosive news over there: Xu Changlin is dead!

In the Beijiang Evening News, the first person to know about this was Luo Fangyi, which was revealed by his brother Luo Yuchen. In fact, a lot of news also adheres to a rule: county officials are not as good as the current management. Sometimes, when an emergency occurs in a certain place, the first person to know about it is not the Propaganda Department or newspaper, but the public security, fire department and other departments.

Luo Fangyi's first reaction when he heard the news was, brother, you're not joking with me.

It's true.

"Since the case in Luohe Village has not yet entered the prosecution stage, Xu Changlin has been detained in the detention center during this time. This morning, the police confirmed that Xu Changlin died in a very strange way: he tore the bed sheet into a long strip and tied it to the head of the bed, and then wrapped the other end of the strip of cloth around his neck, and suffocated to death......"

"What about the cause of death, have you checked?"

Luo Yuchen said: "Judging from the scene, there is a high possibility of suicide, but the specific cause of death is still under investigation. By the way, this matter is still under wraps, so don't spread the word. ”

Luo Fangyi said, "I know, brother. Just ......"

"Just what?"

"It's just that Master doesn't know what Master's mood will be, and what he wants to investigate may never have an answer. ”

"Uh......" On the other end of the phone, Luo Yuchen wanted to speak and stopped.

"What's wrong? ”

"In fact, there are some investigation and interrogation files...... We had an interrogation of him before. ”

"Then go ahead and check. ”

"The case file has also been sealed, and now that the person is dead, how do you say to investigate? Now everyone is worried about how to deal with the death of Xu Changlin, and once it is announced to the public, I am afraid that it will be the headline of national concern. Girl, do you have any good advice?"

"I don't understand this either, why don't I ask Master?"

"I'm afraid he'll poke this out. Luo Yuchen felt that it was very inappropriate to tell his sister about this.

"Master is not that kind of person, don't worry, brother. In fact, any promise is not absolute, besides, Luo Fangyi and Xiangbei have only known each other for a month, but Luo Fangyi feels willing to give him this promise.

Hanging up the phone, Luo Fangyi was also thinking, how to talk to Xiang Bei? Now is the critical period of this economic dispute case interview, if the news of Xu Changlin's death is told to him, can he still interview in Yushan with peace of mind?

It wasn't until the second half of the night, after Xiangbei finished writing the day's manuscript and sent it back to the agency, that Luo Fangyi decided to talk to him.

"Master, have you slept? I want to talk to you. Luo Fangyi sent a WeChat message to Xiangbei.

Xiangbei was a little surprised, it was already so late, and besides, today's interview was so tiring, what can't you say tomorrow?!

"I can't even open my eyes, Xiao Luo, if you're not in a hurry, I'll talk about it tomorrow?"

"Well, just a few words, Master......"

Luo Fangyi knocked on the door to the north, stood in the corridor and said, "Master, there is something I just heard...... I think I should tell you......" Luo Fangyi was still a little hesitant.

"Huh?" Xiangbei almost couldn't open his eyes, and he was relieved to send the manuscript back to the agency, and the happiest thing at this time was to sleep under the quilt.

"Uh...... Xu Changlin is dead......"

"What?" Xiang Bei was a little surprised, thinking that he had misheard.

"I also heard it today, it should be suicide. ”

Xiang Bei was stunned, he recalled the experience of squatting in front of Xuchanglin's house that night. In fact, it can be seen from Xu Changlin's resistance at that time that he was very afraid in his heart, and the root of this fear may be the desire for life. How could a person like this who is afraid of death commit suicide. Besides, even if the final verdict comes, he should not be guilty of death. But why did you choose to commit suicide now?

"Did your brother tell you?

"It should be reliable. ”

Xiangbei put his arm against the door frame and pondered for a long time, "Xiao Luo, I think I still have to go to Luohe Village......"

"Master, we have just taken over this usury case...... Luo Fangyi said, "My brother wants me to ask you, what do you think of handling this matter?"

"Do you mean to make the news public?"

"Yes. ”

"From a work perspective, I definitely want to be public, it's another big news after all. However, from your brother's point of view, it is definitely not appropriate to make it public. Xiangbei pondered for a while, "I think the cause of Xu Changlin's death has not yet been investigated, so it can be resigned and made public, so that this matter can be precipitated again." However, it must not be covered, and in this society, there is no impermeable wall. ”
