Chapter 26: Three Watches in the Middle of the Night

The three men crept to the edge of the waste ditch.

There is no trace of liquid in the wastewater ditch connected to the terminal pipe of the wastewater treatment plant.

"The waste ditch is dry. ”

Ye Zhenzhen wore gloves and pinched up a handful of dirt under the ditch.

The soil dries and turns into a yellow powder with a gentle pinch.

"The waste ditch is so dry, it seems that no wastewater has passed through here for a long time. Ye Zhenzhen shook off the dirt in her hand, stood up, and looked out of the iron fence.

In the dark night, I couldn't see the situation of the waste ditch outside, and I could only hear the sound of the waves of the Nanwan River hitting the rocks on the shore not far away.

Nan Zhiqiao remembered the description of the Nanwan Town Electrical Appliance Production Plant in the data, "The water supply and drainage of the factory is the municipal water supply network, and the drainage enters the sewage treatment equipment through the sewage pipe network of the factory, and is discharged into the Nanwan River after the treatment reaches the standard." The waste water ditch in front of you is the only way for the factory to discharge sewage, and the dry ditch indicates that the factory is not treating the sewage according to the original design. ”

Zhao Dagang: "The sewage has been transported to the hillside courtyard, where is there any sewage here, I think, I don't know when the sewage in the pool just now was left in it, just to make an example for the environmental protection department." ”

Ye Zhenzhen thought of a way to know whether the sewage in the factory has been treated by the sewage equipment in the factory, "Senior Nan, let's go and check the sewage pipelines in the factory, starting from the production workshop." ”

The three of them hit it off, Zhao Dagang led the way, and quietly came to a wide factory in the dark.

"It's the largest factory in the entire appliance factory, and more than 200 workers work here every day. Zhao Dagang quietly introduced, and quickly turned to the back of the plant, where there were many thick pipes alternating vertically and horizontally.

"These pipes are connected to the workshop, I don't know if they are the sewage pipes you are looking for. ”

Zhao Dagang squatted under the pipeline, looking at the reactions of the two people next to him by taking advantage of the dim factory street lamps around him.

"There are sewer pipes with markings on them. Ye Zhenzhen pointed to a thick black pipe, "Industrial wastewater pipes are generally black. ”

The three of them walked along the black pipe, and as they approached the sewage treatment plant, the black pipe suddenly branched.

A thick rubber hose is connected to one end of the three-pronged pipeline, and through the screw valve on the three-pronged pipeline, the industrial sewage in the black pipeline changes the flow direction, and no longer flows into the wastewater treatment plant, but flows along the rubber hose to another place.

The three men continued along the rubber hose and found that the hose eventually led to an underground cistern.

The so-called cistern, more accurately called the "reservoir", in which a large amount of industrial wastewater is stored.

The reservoir is very hidden, the top is sealed with a cement board, and the water in the hose is constantly flowing in, and the sound of "bang-la-la" water comes from below.

Nan Zhiqiao used the flashlight he carried with him to shine through the gap in the sealed cement slab and shine downward, reflecting a light green light in the reservoir.

Vera Ye circled around the hidden wastewater pond and finally stopped in front of an electric water pump.

One end of the pump is connected to the waste water tank with a pipe, and the other end is connected to a screw pipe.

Look at the size of the screw pipe, it is exactly the same as the interface on the water tanker.

"Senior Nan, this should be the place where the water tanker picks up the industrial wastewater. ”

There was still some green liquid in the screw pipe of the water pump, Nan Zhiqiao collected the remaining liquid into the sampling tube, put away the sampling tube, and Nan Zhiqiao instructed Zhao Dagang, "Go to the next workshop." ”

Zhao Dagang had been following Nan Zhiqiao, looking at the series of movements of the handsome man in front of him, and couldn't help but ask, "Is it useful to collect these?"

"Yes, this is all evidence, and based on what we have now, combined with the results of laboratory tests, we can make a judgment about this mercury poisoning incident. ”

"The South Bay Appliance Factory will also be punished? Those who are sick will also be compensated, right?"

"Yes, with the evidence, the law will make a ruling. ”

"Alright, let's find some more evidence. ”

Zhao Dagang took the two to another workshop in the factory.

This workshop is not as big as before, but closer to the wastewater treatment equipment, in the pipeline behind the workshop, find the black sewage pipe, walk along the sewage pipe, and also find an underground storage tank for storing industrial wastewater, there is also a water pump on the ground next to the pool, and the pump has the same type of screw pipe.

Two different workshops, different process lines, the wastewater discharged does not pass through the factory's own wastewater treatment equipment, all the sewage is stored in the underground waste liquid pool, and then transported to the hillside courtyard by water tanker, through the seepage well seepage into the ground.

In order to save the cost of sewage treatment, the factory actually dumped industrial wastewater secretly and recklessly!

Thinking of this, Zhao Dagang couldn't help but complain sharply: "In order to make money, my conscience has been eaten by dogs, and everyone in charge of this factory should be arrested, sentenced, and imprisoned......"

As he was complaining, a beam of light shone through the side of the workshop, when someone shouted, "Who?

Zhao Dagang's voice attracted the security guards who patrolled the night.

The flashlight in the security guard's hand just shone on the three of them, and everyone was shocked, and it was too late to hide now.

Zhao Dagang's face was panicked, and he looked at Nan Zhiqiao and Zhen Zhen, hoping that the two of them could come up with an idea.

The security guard walked over quickly, and Nan Zhiqiao whispered to the two people beside him, "Don't panic, adapt to the situation." ”

Ye Zhenzhen also reacted quickly, looking at the work clothes on herself and Nan Zhiqiao, as well as the forged factory work permit in her pocket, she immediately thought of an idea.

Without waiting for the security guard to come to her, Ye Zhenzhen took the initiative to greet her and explained: "We are workers in the factory, and when I went to work today, I dropped something near here, so I came to look for it." ”

The security guard, a young man in his twenties, tall and strong, with dark skin, shone a flashlight on the faces of the three people, and finally his eyes fell on Ye Zhenzhen.

Zhen Zhen was born beautifully, and now she wears a ponytail, and she looks even younger, although she wears a fat worker's uniform, she still can't hide her touching beauty.

The young security guard looked Zhen Zhen up and down, obviously suspicious of Zhen Zhen's words just now, "Are you an employee of this factory?"

Zhen Zhen stared at the harmless and innocent eyes and nodded, "Yes, I am an employee in the factory." ”

"Why don't I remember you? You are such a beautiful girl, if you are a factory worker, why don't I have any impression at all?"

Zhen Zhen sighed in her heart, "It's not good to be pretty, it's too attention-grabbing." ”

"I'm just here, and with so many workers in the factory, it's normal that I haven't seen them. Vera smiled and explained to herself.

The young security guard looked at the two men behind him, one with a fat head and big ears, broad shoulders and round waist, and a little familiar, and the other handsome and handsome, but his face was very cold.

"What are the two of them doing?" the security guard didn't pay attention to the two men, but asked Zhen Zhen directly.
