"Ding Bang Bang", a bell rang, and Qu Gang, who had just fallen asleep, was awakened. Ω" Ω "E" opened his sleepy eyes, and made out the direction of the bell, Qu Gang got up from the bed, put on his trousers, and went to the outer office.

The landline phone on the desk was still ringing tenaciously, and each one was more anxious than the other, and the ringing was annoying.

Qu Gang picked up the telephone receiver and said "hey".

A stern voice came from the phone: "Qu Gang, what's going on? Many county leaders are on duty in the government, so why don't you even have a person in charge of affairs in your bureau? Let me tell you, today is 18 June, the day of the opening of the city's 'trade exchange meeting.' If the petition incident affects this major activity in the city, I will take your public security bureau for questioning, and I will take you, the executive deputy director, to take the knife." ”

Although there were many doubts in his heart, Qu Gang did not dare to ask directly, but said sincerely: "Secretary Xiao, I will go to the scene right now." In fact, when I returned to the unit, it was already the middle of the night, and before I left, the person in charge was also arranged on the spot. ”

The other party snorted: "It's useless to say anything, the task is to solve the problem satisfactorily." As soon as the voice fell, there was a "snap" sound of hanging up the phone.

"Hey,. Qu Gang scolded himself, put down the telephone receiver, and returned to the bedroom in the back room.

After getting dressed, he wiped his face with a towel casually, and Qu Gang walked downstairs quickly. Got into the car, moved quickly, gave oil under the feet, and the car jumped out with a "rub".

In the early morning, there were not many vehicles and few pedestrians on the streets, and Qu Gang drove the car straight to the county government. In only about five minutes, they rushed to the gate of the county government. I could only get to the door, and there were several circles of iron chains coiled on the pillars of the two gates of the county government, and the ends of the chains were locked by a large lock.

Damn, who did it? Qu Gang secretly scolded, in fact, he was like a mirror in his heart, it must be the masterpiece of those petitioners. It's just that he doesn't quite understand in his heart that when he left at two o'clock in the morning, the gate was just closed and not locked, and the small door on the gate could also be passed. At that time, the petitioners were also gathered in front of the government building, and many of them were already asleep on the ground. Of course, these people did not lie directly on the marble floor, but slept on the training mats provided by the Public Security Bureau, for which many petitioners also thanked the Public Security Bureau for this practice, and said that they would cooperate with the work and petition in a civilized manner.

Why was it only more than three hours before the gate was locked? What's the matter? With suspicion, Qu Gang parked the car on the side of the road and walked towards the gate.

was still worried about whether the other party would take care of him, but soon Qu Gang knew that worrying was unnecessary. Just when he was still two steps away from the gate, the villagers who had already seen him coming immediately rushed to the door with a "hula", shouting through the gate fence, "Someone is coming, you are coming to be an official." ”

Qu Gang came to the door, his brows furrowed slightly: "Fellow villagers, what are you doing here? Isn't it good to say? Open the door first, and there is something to discuss. ”

"How to petition civilly?"

"Will you let me?"

"Liars. ”

"There is no good person in office. ”

The common people were shouting.

Qu Gang pressed down with both hands again and again: "Folks, if you have something to say, say it one by one." ”

"Don't talk, I'll talk, I'll talk. A shout rang out, and gradually everyone closed their mouths.

It was an elderly man who was wearing a faded green shirt with patches. He motioned for the people next to him to retreat, and then said to Qu Gang, "You are Director Qu." ”

Qu Gang nodded: "I'm Qu Gang, we have met yesterday, your name is Yang Ercheng, and it was the training mat you organized everyone to share at that time." ”

Yang Ercheng smiled bitterly: "It's rare that Director Qu still remembers me." Then the topic changed, "Director Qu, I just want to ask when this matter will be resolved, and if it can be resolved?"

Qu Gang said gently: "Lao Yang, there must be a process to solve it, and you have to give a time to solve it." The county already knows about your demands and is investigating them. Otherwise, you go back first, and ...... first."

"Director Qu, this is your usual 'drag' decision, as long as we go back, this matter will be gone. Yang Ercheng interrupted Qu Gang, "You just give me a happy word, can the county solve it? If it really can't be solved, we will go to the top to petition." ”

"Yes, petition, we have people above us. Someone chimed in.

"Go to the leader above. ”

"There is always someone who calls the shots for the people. ”

The crowd began to make an uproar again.

Yang Ercheng also flashed to the back and stopped talking.

No matter how Qu Gang explained, the petitioner just kept yelling, that is, he did not open the door, and he just wanted him to give a clear answer. What clear answer could he give? Qu Gang had a headache.

……

Chu Tianqi opened his eyes and saw that it was already bright outside the car window, looked at his watch again, and said secretly in his heart: It's almost over. was about to wake up Li Jian and the others, but the mobile phone rang.

Glancing at the caller ID, Chu Tianqi pressed the answer button.

Qu Gang's voice immediately came from the mobile phone: "Director, where are you? The petitioners have not left, and they are still very excited today, and they have locked the door of the government." No matter what I said, they didn't listen, and they shouted that they wanted to go up there and petition, and that there were people above them. ”

I'm afraid that the person the people are talking about is himself. Thinking of this, Chu Tianqi hurriedly said: "Lao Qu, I will be there in more than an hour, and I will go directly to the scene and deal with the problem with you." You must stabilize the mood of the masses, and you must not let the contradictions intensify, still less let them go to the top to petition. ”

"Handling petitions is a matter for the Letters and Visits Office and the government, and we only need to be responsible for maintaining order, and there is no need to explain so much to the people, and they will not listen to them at all. Qu Gang's voice was full of worry, "It's just that I should go to work in another hour, it's always blocked like this, it's easy to have an accident and cause public security problems." Why don't you report to the leaders and ask them to find a way quickly, we ......"

Chu Tianqi interrupted the other party: "Lao Qu, let go of the report in advance, the top priority is to do a good job of stability." I guess I'll be there in just over an hour, and we'll have an idea together. ”

Qu Gang didn't understand very much: "We can't take the responsibility on our own heads, it is not our job to deal with petitions, our obligation is to be responsible for maintaining order and doing what the county leaders order." ”

"Lao Qu, I understand your feelings, but if there is a problem with public security, we are responsible. Chu Tianqi said earnestly, "You have to listen to me, maintain order first, understand?"

"I ...... All right. Qu Gang said this, and his voice stopped abruptly.

Chu Tianqi held his mobile phone, looked out the window, and remembered the sentence on Qu Gang's phone, "There are people above them." Thinking of this, Chu Tianqi's brows furrowed, shook his head, and sighed.

……

After ending the call, Qu Gang put away his mobile phone, sighed, and walked towards the gate.

When he came to the door, Qu Gang put on a smiling face and beckoned to Yang Ercheng: "Lao Yang, Lao Yang, come here, let's talk again." ”

had already hid behind, but now that the other party beckoned to him, Yang Ercheng couldn't help but come out. I had to walk to the door very reluctantly: "Director Qu, is there a solution?"

Qu Gang said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Lao Yang, if you want to solve it, you have to understand the situation thoroughly, and you have to let me go in first." It's not a problem to open the door and lock it all the time. ”

"You're misunderstood, it's not that we want to lock the door, it's that we can't help it. Speaking of this, Yang Ercheng changed the topic, "Director Qu, I want to ask you a few questions, can you give an answer?"

"Question? That depends on the problem. Qu Gang replied.

"Actually, the problem is very simple. 1. Is our petition legitimate, and is it a civilized petition? 2. Is the petition not guilty, should we go to prison? 3. Do we have the right to petition at a higher level? After asking the question, Yang Ercheng said, "Can you answer?"

"I can answer these few questions. Qu Gang smiled slightly, "From the time you came yesterday morning to the time I left here at two o'clock this morning, you are all civilized petitioners." It's just that now the door is locked with iron chains, and the more civilized the scope of petitioning. Doing a good job in the work of letters and visits has always been a very important part of the work of the party and the government, and both the central and local governments have attached great importance to it. As long as it reflects the demands normally, as long as it does not affect the normal work of government departments, and as long as it does not affect the personal and property safety of others, it is a civilized petition, and how can it be a crime? If the relevant government departments ignore it, do not pay attention to it, or even delay the decision for a long time, the people will naturally choose to petition at the next level. Of course, since the matter has reached the point of petitioning, it means that it is difficult to solve it, and the petitioners should also give the relevant departments enough time to solve the problem. ”

"It is worthy of being an official, and what he says is not leaky, but what Director Qu said is also objective. Yang Ercheng's words were not without ridicule, "I wonder if what Director Qu is talking about is the attitude of the government, whether it can represent the Public Security Bureau?"

Qu Gang heard the other party's sarcasm, and he was a little displeased: "I think what I said is more objective, is there anything wrong?"

"You're very good, reasonable, there's nothing wrong with that. Saying that, Yang Ercheng changed the topic, "But some people say that we are unreasonable and want to arrest us and put us in prison, and they also say that if we go to petition above, we will see one and arrest another." ”

"Wouldn't it?" Qu Gang asked suspiciously, "Maybe your understanding is wrong." No one should say that. ”

Yang Ercheng said coldly: "Do you understand the misunderstanding?" Director Qu, I'm afraid you're protecting your shortcomings, right?"

Behind him, the crowd began to shout again:

"Why not? Someone pointed at us. ”

"That's what you police said. ”

"He said he's going to transfer people and he's going to arrest us right away. ”

"We locked the gate for fear of being taken away by you. ”

"Liars, people from the Public Security Bureau are also liars. ”

Qu Gang hurriedly signaled with both hands: "Don't get excited, everyone, there may be some misunderstanding here." ”

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, red mouth and white teeth, can we still hear it wrong? Anyway, it is what you public security bureau officials said, and we are not deaf or stupid. A man yelled in the back.

"Alright, listen to me. Yang Ercheng turned his head, stopped loudly, and waited for the scene to be quiet, before he said to Qu Gang again, "Director Qu, it is indeed said by someone from the Public Security Bureau, it seems to be a leader, and that person is quite Peugeot, but his speech is too ugly." ”

Someone added later: "That guy doesn't look like a dog, he talks like an animal." ”

Another person added: "Look at the long eyebrows, standing eyebrows and raising eyes, at first glance, he is not a good person." ”

Hearing this, Qu Gang was sure that someone had said such a thing, and he also locked a person in his heart. He couldn't help but curse: bastard, a guy who has more than enough success and more than failure.
