"Audience friends in front of the TV. Last night, the police launched a strike hard operation called "Hurricane", which swept away the city's law and order corners, and cracked and arrested a number of criminal groups. Among them, what is shocking is that the police arrested a drug production and trafficking gang in an urban village that is about to usher in large-scale development, and seized more than □□ more than 1,000 grams of ......"

Wu Jue snapped, threw down the remote control, put on a pair of shoes casually, and ran downstairs and took a taxi to the urban village.

In recent years, urban villages have been in a very embarrassing situation, most of the well-educated young people in the local area have moved out, and the young people who remain in the village are usually idle gangsters. However, it is usually just a habit of eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, but I have never heard of such a strict crime as drug production and drug trafficking.

Wu Jue got out of the taxi. Before you reach the entrance of the street, you can feel a strange atmosphere. In the past, the urban village was not lively because of the depression, but now the street is crowded with people in front of an old house, pointing at it with an indignant and frightened expression.

Wu Jue walked in quickly, stood in the crowd, and saw that the doors and windows of the house were already in a mess, and the traces of bullets were obvious. There were also dried, dark blood stains on the ground.

"Ouch hey! You don't know, the sound last night, banged a few times, scared me to think there was a big earthquake. When I woke up in the morning, I realized that the police had arrested someone. ”

"But it's not, I heard that someone is making drugs here, and there are guns, and they fought with the police yesterday, and the blood on the ground is not those who make drugs or the police, so why do you say this kind of thing happened in our urban village?"

"I'm terrified right now. I've heard that those drug dealers are all murderers and arsonists. Will we be able to live in peace from now on? ”

"Who knows! Didn't the government say it was going to be developed? Hurry up and clean up these messes! ”

Wu Jue listened to the discussions of these neighbors and slowly withdrew from the crowd.

Some unformed thoughts gradually came to mind. She couldn't tell her mood at this time, and seemed a little panicked and a little excited.

She kept backing away, and the crowd in front of her seemed to be receding like a tide, making her feel unreal.

"Be careful." It wasn't until this voice sounded that she came back to her senses.

And this voice is all too familiar. She frowned slightly, then turned her head slightly. It was Lin Jiahe's deep and indifferent eyes that were on the spot.

She brushed away his hand that was holding her arm, her eyes averted, and she didn't respond to him.

However, he apparently did not pay much attention to her, and quickly withdrew his gaze and looked at the crowd in front of him, his eyebrows showing a certain unmarked solemnity.

Wu Jue glanced at him and walked past him indifferently, but after just a few steps, she suddenly turned her head again, stared at the back of the heroic figure and was silent for a few seconds, and finally said softly: "Lin Jiahe." ”

He was visibly stunned, and when he turned around, he seemed to be in disbelief and dazed.

Wu Jue smiled at him: "I'm thinking, if the urban village disappears, will you be sad?" ”

He frowned slightly, and a bad premonition arose: "Wu Jue, what are you going to do?" ”

"What can I do?" Wu Jue smiled, "You have also seen that the urban village looks like this, and there must be people who want it to get better." I just wanted to do what I could. ”

He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her, his eyes were sharp but a little at a loss: "Wu Jue, what are you going to do?" ”

She struggled to break free of his grip: "What can I do?" Lin Jiahe, you don't need to think too highly of me, I'm just a nobody. There are some things that I can't do if I want to, and they're far from being something I can control. ”

She paused, and then spoke word by word under his gaze: "But if someone wants to do something to the urban village and let me give it a boost, I may not be able to refuse." ”

"Wu Jue." He closed his eyes, as if he had calmed down, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already indifferent, "Even if you hate me again, I won't let you ruin this place." ”

Wu Jue indifferently glanced at the crowd who were still talking: "You know, it will never be you and me who will stay here." ”

Walking out of the urban village, Wu Jue looked at the cars on the road from afar, and suddenly felt a faint pain in her head, she touched it in her bag, but she didn't touch the painkillers she used on weekdays.

She rubbed her forehead and reached out to stop the car, when a black sedan pulled up in front of her. She was slightly stunned, and after a moment, she rolled down the back seat of the window, revealing a slightly old face with a smile.

"Miss Wu, get in the car." Mayor Ye nodded at her.

Wu Jue hesitated for two seconds, but finally opened the car door smoothly.

Mayor Ye saw her sit still, instructed the driver to drive, and then said with a wry smile: "Miss Wu, if you look at a crackdown, I thought that a place like an urban village could only find a few stinky rats that everyone shouted and beats, but how do you know that a poisonous den was actually made?" ”

Wu Jue also smiled lightly: "Yes, it's quite surprising, the urban village is just dirty and messy, but who would have expected that a drug trafficking gang would be caught?" The reputation of urban villages is even worse. ”

I don't know if Miss Wu listened to today's news, but when the TV station interviewed her on the street, many citizens expressed their disappointment with the urban village and hoped that the government would cure this cancer. My parents have to show something! ”

Wu Jue finally couldn't bear this kind of hypocrisy and grievance, he snorted coldly in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Mayor Ye, if you have any orders, you might as well say it directly." Although I am only an ordinary employee in Weihong, I have participated in the early planning of the urban village project. ”

"Miss Wu is modest, you are Zhou Xing's fiancée, aren't you? I can also see that Zhou Xing has full authority to let you be responsible for this matter. Since Miss Wu said so, I won't go around in circles. He paused, and in the dimly lit carriage, he turned his head to look at Wu Jue with a smile, "The urban village is the center of Jiangcheng, let it become a cultural landmark of Jiangcheng, and protect those messy old houses, it will not be able to give full play to its economic advantages at all." My goal is to demolish the old houses and turn the urban village into the latest commercial center. Of course – in the face of expectations. ”

Wu Jue showed a stunned expression: "You want to demolish the urban village?" But from the very beginning, the project was under the slogan of protecting the traditions of Jiangcheng. If it is suddenly demolished now, how can Wei Hong explain to the citizens? ”

"Didn't Miss Wu already guess what the purpose of such a big crackdown last night was? The government has given you such a good start, is it still difficult to follow? He said and smiled, "Besides, isn't it also Miss Wu's wish to destroy the urban village?" ”

Wu Jue was stunned, and subconsciously asked: "The juniors don't know what they did to make Mayor Ye have such a misunderstanding?" ”

Mayor Ye smiled in a low voice: "Frankly speaking, I don't know if you and Zhou Xing are really fiancées." But I confirm your relationship with Lin Jiahe. You've been living together for half a year before, haven't you? But what? For some reason, you seem to be very resentful of him now, resentful enough to want revenge with this project. Are you saying I'm right? Miss Wu. ”

Wu Jue is like an ice cave.

When he got out of the car, Mayor Ye put a bag of Wen Jiàn in Wu Jue's hand, and his tone was careless, but it seemed to be serious, he said: "Miss Wu, here is a planning document for an urban village project drafted by the mayor's office, you go back and take a look, I hope it will be useful for Wei Hong's planning." Of course, if you feel that there is a problem, you and Zhou Xing can also raise it with me. ”

Wu Jue stared at the yellow kraft paper bag, seemed a little stunned, and then nodded lightly in agreement.

She watched the slightly low-key black sedan drive away from sight, her fingers clenching the paper bag in her hand. For some reason, there was an illusion for a while, it seemed that this paper bag was a Pandora's box, and once opened, all the sins would come to the face - resentment, viciousness, paranoia, and even **.

However, I have to admit that the magic box always has the power to open temptingly. Wu Jue looked at the paper bag, his heart suddenly jumped violently, and he had an irrepressible urge to move, as if he wanted to eagerly confirm his previous thoughts.

There was a wind blowing on the road, slightly ruffling her hair. She stood on the side of the road and slowly pulled out the thin sheets of paper.

Sure enough, it was expected, the so-called official planning book was actually very simple, because it was so simple that Wu Jue felt that all the previous apprehensions and excitement had become unexpected.

She took out her mobile phone and dialed Zhou Xing's phone on the side of the road, and the moment the other party picked it up, she spoke: "Mayor Ye just gave me a plan, he wants to demolish all the urban villages, and use the fastest and most direct method to turn it into the latest commercial center in Jiangcheng." ”

"What?" Then Zhou Xing didn't seem to react at once.

"That's what you heard. Mayor Ye's purpose is very simple, that is, there will be no more urban villages in Jiangcheng. ”

Zhou Xing was obviously still puzzled: "Why did he do this?" ”

"Interests." Wu Jue couldn't find any other way to express his disdain except for sneering, "There is no other explanation except interests." ”

"But he's the mayor and not the developer, and if he wants to profit from it, isn't it a crime?"

"Didn't you say that this Mayor Ye was not clean in the first place? So if he wants to profit from it, it's not impossible. ”

"No, Wei Hong must not be an executioner to tear down the memory of Jiangcheng's history. I still want to rely on this project to enhance Wei Hong's image and expand his influence in Jiangcheng! Zhou Xing over there said a little indignant.

"Brother Yibei, listen to me." Wu Jue interrupted him, "Think about it, why was Wei Hong able to win this project?" Is it really because of Lin Jiahe's concession? No, it definitely won't be that simple. In my opinion, Mayor Ye was not ready to cooperate with Lin Zheng from the beginning, even if there was no small action from me at the beginning, he would definitely have a way to get Lin Zheng to quit. And the reason why he is doing this step by step is just to become justified. Yesterday's crackdown and today's media reports are just slowly paving the way. ”

Zhou Xing was silent over there for a long time before he slowly spoke: "When you say this, I think there is some truth." What a terrible thing, he's already mayoral, he's got a lot of power, what else do you want? ”

"Actually, it's not hard to figure it out. If you think about the change of office next year, this is the time when these officials start to act aggressively, and it is uncertain who will be up and down. ”

Zhou Xing was a little irritable and said: "No matter what, Wei Hong can't do such a hurtful thing, and I don't want to be infamous for being mercenary." When the time comes, Wei Hongke will be shouted and beaten by everyone, and he is afraid that he will not be spurned in Jiangcheng. ”

Wu Jue smiled and said, "Brother Yibei, you are wrong. Since this project is led by the government, if there is really any problem, it is not only Wei Hong's responsibility. Therefore, Ye Lao Fox has already figured out how to demolish the urban village without attracting scolding. Moreover, as you yourself said, the rich don't fight with the officials, do you think it will be beneficial to work against Mayor Ye? We are all just little ants, if Ye Lao Fox is unhappy, it is not easy to pinch us to death? It's better to follow his plan, at least Wei Hong won't suffer. ”

Zhou Xing was silent again for a long time: "Wu Jue, you sue me, is this your true thoughts, or-" He paused, "Or do you want to push the boat down the river to take revenge on Lin Jiahe in this way, if I remember correctly, you said that urban villages are very important to Lin Jiahe." ”

Wu Jue was stunned in her heart, she had to admit that Zhou Xing did understand her, she couldn't deny it at all, and of course there was no need to deny it: "Yes, destroying the urban village is indeed a great punishment for him." ”

"Wu Jue, but do you think it's worth using this method of hurting the innocent just to punish him alone? Or do you feel better? ”

Wu Jue could almost think of Shen Yibei's distressed expression over there, but she replied disappreciatively: "It doesn't matter if it's worth it or not, no matter what happens in the urban village, it has no effect on me." As for whether I feel good or not, I think as long as Lin Jiahe is punished a little, I will feel good. ”

Zhou Xing sighed, as if he wanted to laugh, but he couldn't, so the tone on the phone became a little weird: "You are still blinded by resentment." Wu Jue, I don't think you're like you anymore. After that, his tone was relaxed again, with a sluggish tiredness, "But in this situation, I'm afraid I can't let me say no, since Mayor Ye wants to do it, it is impossible for Wei Hong not to follow in his footsteps." You tell me now, what does the plan ask us to do next? ”

Ye Laofox said very clearly in the planning book that as long as the public feels that this qiē is taken for granted, then a qiē will become taken for granted, and the public has always been led by public opinion. Last night and today, he had already taken the first step, and now the urban village has suddenly turned from an ancient and backward fringe to a cancer of the city. Both the people in the village and those outside the village began to be suspicious and spurn about this place. As long as these negative effects continue to be exaggerated, the people of Jiangcheng may soon hope that the urban village will be transformed into a different shape, and it doesn't matter what it looks like, as long as it is not what it is now. At that time, the development of a qiē became a matter of course. ”

Zhou Xing sighed heavily over there, and mumbled vaguely, as if he wanted to say something more, but in the end he just said "see you later" and hung up the phone.

The next qiē progressed very smoothly. Perhaps Wu Jue was born with the ability to use these small means. Television and newspaper criticism of urban villages dominated the headlines almost every day for a week. More importantly, the Internet, several major forums in Jiangcheng, are full of all kinds of evil deeds in urban villages every day, and it is almost impossible to write about them.

However, in less than ten days, the urban village has changed from a corner that is about to be forgotten to a rat feces that everyone despises, spoiling the good porridge in Jiangcheng. Even the people who live in Jiangcheng began to doubt the land where they grew up under the guidance of public opinion. And I feel ashamed to be a person from an urban village, and even after that crackdown, I no longer have any sense of security.

The subsequent relocation negotiations were so smooth that even Wu Jue himself didn't expect it.

Those old people, although they were reluctant to give up on this fast land, could not withstand the gossip from all sides, and had to waver, and finally when they heard the lawyer read the compensation agreement to them, that little wavering was completely shaken away.

Dozens of old residents of the urban village soon signed on those cumbersome documents and moved out of the urban village in full swing.

On the day of the demolition, Wu Jue personally supervised the work. Two heavy forklifts rumbled towards the deserted urban village, and just listening to the sound, there was a thrill of destruction and destruction.

She held the walkie-talkie, stood far away at the intersection behind the forklift, looked at the torii at the entrance, and the blood in her whole body seemed to be a little twisted and perverted.

She knew that at this moment, the cancer in her heart was really going to permeate her whole body.

"Wu Jue—" She turned on the walkie-talkie and was about to say to the driver in the forklift, when a hurried and anxious shout came from behind her.

She was stunned for a moment, then turned her head a little suddenly, and saw Lin Jiahe walking out of the car behind her with a tired face.

It seems that two more months have passed since we last met.

He walked over and stood still before her, and his face was rather tired from the anxious cry just now. Yes, there was a deep, deep tiredness between the slightly frowning eyebrows.

Wu Jue found that his state didn't seem to be good, except for his sunken eye sockets, his cheeks were also much thinner, and the whole person showed a decadence, not decadent, but the kind of decadence that made people think that he would fall down in the next moment.

This discovery made Wu Jue's eyebrows furrow without a trace. In her cognition, Lin Jiahe is so powerful that she will always have a determined and high-spirited attitude.

Her heart was stung for no apparent reason.

"Stop, Wu Jue." He spoke, his voice low, but as if he had exhausted his strength.

Wu Jue retracted the discomfort just now, and said lightly: "Impossible." ”

As she spoke, she slowly lifted the walkie-talkie. Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Lin Jiahe suddenly snatched the walkie-talkie and slammed it on the ground.

Wu Jue frowned, glanced at the wreckage on the ground, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He raised his head again and looked at Lin Jiahe's face: "Do you think you can stop it like this?" ”

Lin Jiahe shook his head and slowly reached out to hold her arm: "I know I can't stop you, but I really don't want to see you take revenge on me in this way, because that doesn't make you happy." I know I owe you, and I'm willing to do everything in my power to make it up to you. ”

Wu Jue, who was still in silence, suddenly opened her eyes wide after hearing his words, pushed her away hard, and shouted hysterically: "Compensation? How to compensate? Can your compensation bring Shen Tong back to life? I feel desperate when I think about it, why was the person I love killed by you, but you, the executioner, are still alive? ”

Rao is resentful in her heart, Wu Jue has never been so vicious in words, she doesn't know if her expression at this time is as hideous as a demon.

A touch of desperate pain appeared in Lin Jiahe's eyes, he closed his eyes for a moment and opened them again, and he opened them word by word: "Since this sin is caused by me, it should be borne by me alone." You let go of the urban village, I can't return Shen Tong to you, but I can accompany you with your life. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at the traffic on the road next to him.

Before Wu Jue could react from his words, he only looked at her deeply, and then ran towards a fast-moving truck in the middle of the road.
