Just now I was still wondering why the robbers didn't take the hostages' mobile phones, and now it seems that their purpose may be this, but what good can this do to them, Zhao Shouyi can't think of it even if he wants to break his head.

"How many journalists are there?"

The police officer said, "It looks like it's dark, and all the media reporters who can go may have gone, and there are more than 50 people, all gathered on the riverbank, less than 100 meters away from the SWAT team." ”

"Map!"

"Yes!"

A map was unfolded and placed on the conference table, and everyone gathered around, and the officer pointed to a place,

"The SWAT team is here, the Jiangshang restaurant is just a kilometer away, and the reporter's position is relatively high, less than a kilometer away from the restaurant, and the restaurant has already arrived here."

Suddenly, Zhao Shouyi had a hint of foreboding, and looked at the dam less than fifteen kilometers in front of the Jiangshang Restaurant, his eyes were a little flustered.

"Zhao Ju! Dam! ”

Zhao Shouyi stretched out his hand to stop Deng Jiabao, "I know what you want to say, this goal is too big, no matter which one it is, it is a loss that we can't afford." ”

Han Lei said, "Can you organize a forcible interception?" Keep the boat in front of the dam. ”

Zhao Shouyi shook his head, "Don't forget that the waiters on the ship, the people who eat, and the tourists, there are more than a hundred, and the robbers' chips don't allow us to make any moves." ”

"What then? You can't just let them go ahead, can you? That's more than 100 lives! It's really not possible to let the dam be closed over there, so that the hostages are at least relatively safe. ”

Zhao Shouyi looked at the map with a solemn expression, and the information about the dam was marked on it.

"This dam is a dam that holds back water, taking into account the role of flood discharge and drainage in the rainy season, and will be closed when the dry season comes, by adjusting the flow, so that the Jialing River flowing through Chongqing always maintains a balance of water, the dam across the Jialing River is about 240 meters long, 31 meters high, if the gate is closed, the robbers still do not stop the boat, they will directly hit it, and the fate of a boatload of people will not change at that time."

The atmosphere in the conference room became oppressive, and everyone was racking their brains to find a way, but things seemed to be at an impasse, and they had no way to use it, not even the qualifications to fight it.

"Alas, I can't imagine that I, Zhao Shouyi, have been dedicated to my duties all my life, and in the end it will end up like this."

Everyone knows that once the tragedy happens, the media and the anger of the people will all rush to Zhao Shouyi, so that both the city government and the municipal party committee will have enough reasons to kill him.

"Jingle Bell Bell Bell ......"

Zhao Shouyi sighed again, and the civilian police officer picked up the phone, "Hey, Municipal Public Security Bureau, who ...... you are looking for?"

After a pause, the police officer covered the receiver and looked at Zhao Shouyi, "Bureau Zhao, Secretary Ji's phone." ”

Zhao Shouyi walked over and picked up the earpiece.

"Xiao Zhao, I just received the news, how is the situation over there, have the hostages been rescued?"

"Not yet, the robbers don't know what they want to do, they open the restaurant to the dam, they don't mention any conditions, they still have anti-aircraft fire in their hands, the SWAT team is nearby, but they can't get close to organizing an effective operation, the situation on the scene is very tricky."

The secretary smiled silently, Zhao Shouyi didn't know what the other party was thinking.

"So what are you going to do next? That's a boatload of lives! There is no room for any mistakes, how can we explain to the people of Chongqing after the accident.? ”

The words are good, how can "we" explain to the people, so many reporters went to the scene, and the public opinion afterwards will point to Zhao Shouyi, that is, Zhao Shouyi will be burned to death, and the officials and masters of the municipal party committee will not be able to roast dry.

There was silence in the earpiece for a while, and Zhao Shouyi said, "Please rest assured, Secretary Ji, I will definitely do my best to rescue the hostages, if there is any accident, I will bear the responsibility alone, no one needs to remind me, I will also take off this police uniform and get out." ”

"Director Zhao! Don't get excited, I didn't mean that, you also have to have confidence in your own ability, don't say such things at every turn, it's very irresponsible, focus on rescuing the hostages. ”

Want to quit your job? The old fox is not a fool, the anger of public opinion needs a head to hold on to it afterwards, Zhao Shouyi resigned and left, the municipal party committee and the municipal government are the second responsible persons, how could he be so cheap Zhao Shouyi, and pushed himself into the fire pit.

Zhao Shouyi was not in the mood to be polite with the other party at all, and said, "I know the secretary, it's very chaotic here, I can't delay for too long." ”

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone, and then sat on the chair, the faces of the others were not good-looking, He Yonghong smoked one cigarette after another, and the teacups on the table were full of cigarette butts.

Zhao Shouyi thought about it, picked up his mobile phone, and sent a text message carefully.

"My life is on the ship! There must be no failure. ”

On the water surface of the Jialing River, which flows outside Chongqing, a big boat is moving slowly, the night sky is dark and pressing, the stars occasionally flicker, and the naked eye can see a kilometer away, there are dots of light, many vehicles gather in a fairly flat area, and those reporters hold microphones one by one, bringing a touch of excitement to the silent midnight news.

"Hello everyone, Yu Zheng, a reporter from Chongqing News Channel, is doing a live report for you, and now we can see that there is a big boat six hundred meters ahead, that is, the hijacked Jiangshang restaurant, and a hundred hostages are on it, and the robbers are driving the boat not to where they want to go. Now let's connect with the commander of the special police team of the city bureau located not far from the rear to find out the specific situation. ”

The picture was switched to Wang Xiang's side, a camera was aimed at Wang Xiang's head like a cannon, Wang Xiang and a special police officer next to him were holding a map to study whether there was a feasible rescue plan, and were suddenly interrupted by a reporter rushing up.

"Captain Wang! We wanted to know what was going on on board, whether anyone was injured, and what exactly was the purpose of the robbers? ”

Wang Xiang looked at the other party's fiery eyes, "If you are sick, when are you still making trouble here!" ”

Wang Xiang is not a good temper either, with a wave of his hand, a few special police officers came up and snatched the machine over, but he didn't turn it off, because that would cause trouble, and who knows how they will write tomorrow. Then he put up a presenter, a videographer, an arm to carry things, and carried them out.

"What are you doing, let me go, I'm a reporter from the city news station!"

When they were blasted out, the cameraman angrily raised the camera and pointed it at the faces of several SWAT officers to see what they dared to do.

The reporter said, "What do you mean by that?" Don't we know that we journalists have the right to free speech and freedom of the press? You're breaking the law! ”

One of the special police officers had a gloomy face and saluted,

"Comrade! When the freedom of the press is also scored, how can Captain Wang have time to do your program now, more than 100 lives, you still have a bit of public morality, don't always think about attracting attention and pulling advertising money for TV stations. ”
