Chapter 041: Blood Won't Shed in Vain

After finishing the work of welcoming the general secretary's inspection, the operation of the Jiangdong Provincial Party Committee team has returned to an orderly state.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or deliberate, but during the intense trial of the "August 13" fire case, Yu Ke rushed to Pengcheng to conduct research. One stay lasted five days, accompanied by Lin Sen and Huang Yùhe, and went to several bankrupt coal mines in the south, and also made public speeches. The provincial newspaper carried the news in a prominent position on the front page, and the city's media made a key report.

Jiang Yunjin didn't know that Yu Wei was coming in advance, and he only found out after reading the report by accident. After knowing it, I felt that something was wrong: in the past, Yu Ke always had to greet him first when he came to Pengcheng, what happened this time? After thinking about it, I was apprehensive, hesitated again and again, and finally went to visit Yu Ke on the night when he was about to leave.

Yu Ke stayed at Pengcheng Hotel. When Jiang Yunjin arrived, Yu Kewei, who was wearing pajamas, was talking to Lin Sen and Huang Yihe in the reception room of the hotel suite. This member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Executive Vice Governor, who has fallen into passivity, is still happily chatting and laughing with Lin Sen and Huang Yihe as if he didn't know that his lover Zhou Xiuying was standing in the dock to be judged. Seeing that he had arrived, Yu Ke was also enthusiastic, took his hand and said, "Yunjin, why did you come here too?" Now there are so many rumors in the society, you, the director of the public security bureau, still dare to come to see me? Yes? ”

Jiang Yunjin smiled and replied: "Old leader, you are right to criticize, I'm late!" He also explained, "Governor Yu, you see this is a trouble, I still read the newspaper to know that you came to Pengcheng......

Yu Ke didn't seem to hear it, so after letting him sit down, he continued to talk about work with Lin Sen and Huang Yihe: "...... It's hard for you in the city, it's hard for us in the province, but it's even more difficult for the workers in the bankrupt mines! I don't know if I don't see it, I'm shocked when I see it, it's shocking! Comrade yùhe, I only learned today that it is not easy for you, the secretary in charge of bankruptcy, to be the secretary! ”

Huang Yihe said: "Governor Yu, it's good that you know, you have to make a big decision, you have to find a way!" ”

Yu Ke followed his own train of thought and said to himself: "Of course you have to find a way!" The province has to find a way, and the city has to find a way! Is there a good way to solve the problem at the root? It's not nothing, I think it is still necessary to solve it in development, development is the last word! The topic turned, "Has Pengcheng developed over the years?" I think it's still developed! It is a fact that we owe some debts, and so is development! Isn't it, Comrade Lin Sen? ”

Lin Sen hurriedly said: "Yes, yes. Governor Yu, the achievements of Pengcheng's reform and opening up are obvious to all! ”

Yu Ke smiled: "Comrade Lin Sen, don't flatter me, what is obvious to all?" As soon as the 'August 13' fire broke out, there were more discussions about me and the previous team, as if I had been mayor for five years, so I made a foolish rabbit and built an airport that didn't make money! Some people just can't see such a beautiful new Pengcheng! So according to that, isn't Secretary Xiao Chen's 'New Wucheng' also a fool? Wucheng's image project huā has a lot more money than our Pengcheng! ”

Lin Sen's face was full of sincerity, and he said with emotion: "These comrades, alas, one-sided, too one-sided......"

Huang Yihe didn't speak with a stiff face on the side, thinking in his heart: Wucheng is already rich, and it is developing quickly in the hands of Secretary Xiao, and it is the time to attract new investment with the environment.

Yu Ke waved his hand at this time, and continued: "Speaking of today's new Pengcheng, there is a comrade who cannot be forgotten, that is, Zhou Xiuying!" Although Zhou Xiuying was confused for a while, took 500,000 yuan from Su Quangui, accepted bribes, derelicted her duties, and is now standing in the dock of the court, I still have to say fairly, this lesbian is not simple. Comrade Chen Zhili used this lesbian well! This lesbian has made a significant contribution to today's Xinpengcheng! ”

When Jiang Yunjin heard this, he was shocked: It's all like this, Huang Yihe is in front of him again, why does Yu Ke still say that? Yue Qinglan is Huang Yihe's wife, so she is not afraid that Huang Yihe will spread this word to Yue Qinglan's ears?

Sure enough, as soon as Yu Ke's words fell, Huang Yihe picked it up, and said unceremoniously: "Governor Yu, Zhou Xiuying's contribution in the past is not small, but this time the disaster is big enough, and the consequences are too serious......"

Yu Ke said seriously: "So, you must learn a lesson seriously and have concentration in front of money!" ”

Jiang Yunjin came up at the right time: "At this point, we all have to learn from Governor Yu!" Last year, Governor Yu's daughter got married, and many comrades went to give gifts, but Governor Yu didn't keep any of them, and donated them all to Hefu Hope Primary School! ”

Yu Ke seemed to be displeased, and glanced at Jiang Yunjin: "This kind of thing is glorious, what are you talking about?" Comrade Yunjin, there are thousands of dollars in that money! He said to Lin Sen and Huang Yihe again, "When I went to Hefu to inspect Hope Primary School, I told Wang Jincheng, secretary of the Hefu County Party Committee, that under the conditions of a market economy, it is entirely possible for the power in your hands to become a commodity, and Zhou Xiuying's incident once again proves this!" Therefore, I introduced three experiences: one refusal, two reciprocal gifts, and three donations, and the results of practice have proved that there are still some effects......"

Huang Yihe is very good at sewing needles: "Governor Yu, how good it is to donate that money to our families of workers in difficulty!" ”

Yu Ke pointed at Huang Yihe and said with a smile: "Comrade Yiùhe, you are really a debt collector!" I'll never forget to ask me for a debt! Okay, then let's get down to business, since I, the executive vice governor, have come to Pengcheng, I have to leave some money to buy the road, it's impossible to do more, let's give you 1 million as a temporary relief fund first! ”

Huang Yihe was not satisfied: "Governor Yu, is one million a little less?" How much is it per capita?! ”

Lin Sen also said: "Yes, Governor Yu, if you can give about five million first, then ......"

Yu Ke waved his hand without waiting for Lin Sen to finish speaking: "Lin Sen, yùhe, don't be dissatisfied!" That's my biggest approval! You know the financial situation of the province, and I can give you an explanation: I came to Pengcheng this time, and Governor Zhou also said that I should not speak easily, and there are more than 200,000 households and more than 700,000 people in our province who should be included in the scope of the subsistence allowance......

Speaking of which, Yu Ke's secretary Xiao Duan came in, and hesitantly reported: "Governor Yu, the city urban management committee is called ...... The office director who called Liu Youcai came and said it was ...... I said I want to tell you something! ”

Yu Ke said angrily: "What did the director of one of his department offices report to me?" Let him go! ”

Huang Yihe seemed to have a number in his heart, and said casually: "Governor Yu, people may be looking for you to show your merits!" ”

Jiang Yunjin also knew about Liu Youcai and some comrades of the urban management committee making trouble in the court, and thought to himself, maybe Liu Youcai was here to show his merits. Liu Youcai is Zhou Xiuying's old office director, and he will not know the historical relationship between Zhou Xiuying and Yu Keke.

Yu Ke seemed to be very confused, and asked Huang Yihe: "What do you mean?" What kind of work did this director do to me? ”

Huang Yihe Ming said: "Governor Yu, for Zhou Xiuying's business, this director made a lot of trouble in the court!" ”

Yu Ke's face fell: "Comrade Yùhe, do you mean that I support this office director to go to the court to mess around?" Is my level really going to be this low?! He looked at Huang Yihe, then at Lin Sen, and said coldly, "Fortunately, Mayor Xiaolin is also here today, otherwise, I really can't tell!" ”

Lin Sen hurriedly stood up and played a round: "Governor Yu, you ...... You misunderstood, I don't think Comrade yùhe meant that, and ...... It's just a joke! Really, Liu Youcai is in court, how can you support it? Impossible! Besides, we also seriously investigated this matter a few days ago according to the requirements of Comrade Asahiyama and the municipal party committee, and there was really no one to organize it, and it was completely spontaneous! Governor Yu, let's ...... Let's talk about the million......

Huang Yihe also seemed to have discovered his abruptness: "Yes, yes, it's still ...... Or about money! ”

Yu Ke's anger did not subside: "Comrade Yùhe, please rest assured that you and Comrade Lin Sen have agreed to this million, and it will be indispensable." However, I still have to say what I should say: Since Zhou Xiuying received 500,000 yuan from Su Quangui, and the evidence of bribery is conclusive, how should it be judged, there is nothing to say, it is useless for anyone to make trouble! However, I also advise certain comrades to make less of a fuss about me and Comrade Chen Zhili, let alone take the opportunity to engage in some gangs and factions. ”

Yu Ke, who was in passivity, was still so majestic that Huang Yihe and Lin Sen didn't dare to make a sound.

Yu Ke's tone calmed down a bit, and he said to Lin Sen with a face: "Comrade Lin Sen, no one organizes, no one cào indulges, but there are so many people speaking for Zhou Xiuying in court, what's the problem?" Isn't it worth thinking about? At least it shows that Zhou Xiuying has done a lot of good things, you and Comrade Asahiyama must have a number in your hearts! ”

Huang Yihe seemed to want to argue again, but was stopped by a fleeting glance from Lin Sen.

Lin Sen smiled and responded: "Yes, yes." Governor Yu, we have a number in our hearts! ”

Unexpectedly, Yu Ke said again: "Lin Sen, you and Comrade Xushan don't misunderstand what I mean, this Zhou Xiuying must be punished according to law, and he should be sentenced to a few years." You should make a good summary of this case and educate the cadres! ”

Lin Sen responded again and again, and said goodbye to Huang Yihe.

Huang Yihe took two steps, turned his head at the door of the living room, and said to Yu Ke: "Governor Yu, don't get me wrong, I know that you won't support Liu Youcai to make a court, but in fact, Liu Youcai and these people are looking at your face!" ”

Yu Ke smiled bitterly: "I know this in my heart, so I don't see a comrade like Liu Youcai now, whether it is in the provincial capital or in Pengcheng!" After a slight pause, he said, "By the way, Comrade Yùhe, say hello to Comrade Qinglan on my behalf, and say that I want to find an opportunity to apologize to her. ”

After Huang Yihe and Lin Sen left, Yu Ke's face sank, and he was stunned for a long time without speaking.

Jiang Yunjin came closer, quietly sat on the sofa opposite Yu Ke, and said cautiously: "Old leader, Zhou Xiuying's case is ...... You're ...... You really shouldn't come to Pengcheng at this time! ”

Yu Ke looked up at Jiang Yunjin: "Comrade Yunjin, do you think I'm here for Zhou Xiuying?" ”

Jiang Yunjin reluctantly smiled: "It's not that I thought that Comrade Huang Yihe and Comrade Lin Sen would think like this!" ”

Yu Ke slammed the teacup in his hand on the coffee table, shaking the ashtray on the coffee table and jumping: "If you think so, they are wrong, very wrong!" I came to Pengcheng this time, not for Zhou Xiuying, but for tens of thousands of difficult workers of Pengcheng Mining Group! It is on behalf of the provincial party committee and the provincial government! Comrade Yuan Zhuo said: The problem of social security for the disadvantaged groups must be resolved as soon as possible, and this cannot be ambiguous! The common people want to eat and fill their stomachs, this is a great thing, and a party that represents the fundamental interests of the broadest masses of the people cannot ignore the life and death of the people! ”

Jiang Yunjin had no choice but to accept Yu Ke: Knowing that Zhou Xiuying's case was being tried, and knowing that the provincial party committee investigation team was investigating the problems of their previous team, Yu Ke not only came, but also came confidently, and actually said the official words on the scene so reasonable and emotional!

What made Jiang Yunjin even more unexpected was that Yu Ke criticized him again, knocked on the coffee table with his knuckles, and his tone was extremely stern: "And you, Comrade Yunjin?" How do you do that? The difficulties of the provincial party committee and the provincial government, the difficulties of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, and the difficulties of tens of thousands of unemployed miners in the southern coalfield of the Pengcheng Mining Group, you don't know it! But what did you do? You and your brother-in-law Wang Yancheng are very greedy, and you got mixed up with Su Quangui! didn't pay a penny, so he dragged all the high-end decoration materials worth more than 100,000 yuan in the golden sè era home, and decorated his home like a hotel! Where is the party spirit of your comrade? Where is the conscience? Where is humanity? Do you still have a conscience and humanity? Are there any ordinary people in my heart? Is it true that Zhumen wine stinks, and there are frozen bones on the road? Yes?! ”

Jiang Yunjin couldn't help but feel hot all over, and a layer of sweat oozed from his forehead: "Old leader, this ...... I have to explain this: this is all done by my brother-in-law Wang Yancheng behind my back, I ...... After I found out, I found Comrade Tang Xushan......"

Yu Ke waved his hand: "Don't explain, I know, I know!" You took the initiative to confess your stolen goods to Comrade Asahiyama and the municipal party committee. Therefore, after Su Quangui handed over the blacklist, you will not be afraid, you are very smart! ”

Jiang Yunjin knew in his heart that Yu Keke's stubbornness must be in the matter of killing Su Quangui, so he hurriedly explained: "Old leader, what are you talking about...... Regarding the instructions on dealing with Su Quangui, I ...... I didn't execute well......"

Yu Ke waved his hand to interrupt Jiang Yunjin's words: "Wait, wait, Comrade Yunjin, may I ask, what instructions did I have for dealing with Su Quangui?" When did I give you instructions on how to handle the case? I'm just grasping a big principle! In my impression, I have emphasized one point to Su Quangui from beginning to end: this is a key person, this person must be caught, and he must not be allowed to escape or commit suicide, in a word: to live, isn't it?! ”

Jiang Yunjin didn't expect Yu Ke to turn his face and deny it, and he was stunned for a moment: fortunately, he didn't order Su Quangui to be killed at that time. If you really do this, if you don't take the initiative to find Tang Xushan to clarify your problem, it will be a big trouble now. Yu Keke is not on the blacklist, but he and Wang Yancheng are on the list, even if he has a hundred mouths, he is afraid that he can't tell clearly: everyone will think that he is killing people in order to cover up his economic problems!

Yu Ke also talked about this issue, but his tone was much kinder, and he actually had some cordial meaning: "Comrade Yunjin, is I Yu Ke on Su Quangui's list?" Doesn't seem to have one, right? You're there! Zhou Xiuying is not a thing, are you just a good thing? The following has been a lot of feedback to you and the Public Security Bureau, I haven't reminded you! I also said that I want to go to your house to have a look, look at your palace, you hide from me, just don't arrange it! ”

Jiang Yunjin wiped the cold sweat on his head: "Governor Yu, this ...... I'll have to explain that......"

Yu Ke stopped: "Comrade Yunjin, don't explain, it's better that you can confess and hand over the spoils at a critical moment!" But don't have the illusion, don't think that Zhou Xiuying is a criminal, you are an innocent person. When Liu Youcai was in court, he said, there is one person missing from the defendant's seat, who is missing? I don't think it's you Jiang Yunjin who is missing! ”

Speaking of which, the secretary knocked on the door and came in, saying that Li Yuanzhuo, secretary of the provincial party committee, had called.

Yu Ke immediately got up to see off the guests: "Comrade Yunjin, that's it, we have to sum up experience and accept lessons!" ”

Jiang Yunjin responded again and again, almost subconsciously stood up, and then he didn't know how to get out of the Pengcheng Hotel and how to get into the car. At that time, my mind was in a trance, as if I had a very unreal dream.

When he drove all the way home, he thought that he and Yu Ke were over this time, completely finished. Because of leaving Su Quangui alive, Zhou Xiuying was put in the dock, no matter how many years Zhou Xiuying was sentenced this time, Yu Ke's hatred for him will never be dissolved, and the idea of reporting Yu Kewei to the municipal and provincial party committees came to his heart.

Thinking about it carefully, but I feel inappropriate: You said that Yu Ke had ordered Su Quangui to kill people, who would believe it? Yu Keke is not on Su Quangui's bribery list, and it is reasonable to infer that there is no need to do this, saying that he wants to protect Zhou Xiuying and a group of Pengcheng cadres including him Jiang Yunjin, this accusation is even more unusual: Your old leader wants to protect you, but you sold the old leader, what are you? What's more, he can't produce any evidence, neither circumstantial evidence nor physical evidence, and Yu Ke also explained today: no one has ever given such an order!

The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, and he couldn't help but have a deep respect for Yue Qinglan, this female prosecutor general is really amazing, knowing that Zhou Xiuying's backstage is Yu Ke, she just resisted the pressure to get the case to this day. Why didn't Yue Qinglan want to think: After the "813" case is completed, she can't live anymore? He knows this old leader too well, this person has always been a person who will repay his kindness and revenge, he Jiang Yunjin is not Yu Ke's opponent, but he is afraid that Yue Qinglan is not an opponent either.

The only thing that can bring down Yu Kewei is Yu Kewei's own economic problems. Will there be financial problems with surplus? The bribery issue involved so many cadres in Pengcheng, but none of them involved Yu Keke. Perhaps because of this, Yu Ke dared to be so arrogant, not only daring to come to Pengcheng at such a time, but also daring to speak publicly for Zhou Xiuying. In addition, there is another signal worth noting: in this case, Li Yuanzhuo, secretary of the provincial party committee, still seems to be in close contact with Yu Ke, and he took the initiative to call the Pengcheng Hotel just now. What does Secretary Li Yuanzhuo want to talk about with Yu Ke? Is it about the problem of solving the difficulties of workers in difficulty, or the "August 13" case? It's hard to figure it out!

I really want to talk to Yue Qinglan well, make friends, and give the truth, so that Yue Qinglan can be more wary of Yu Kewei, the leader of the provincial party committee. A comrade like Yue Qinglan was really planted in Yu Keke's hands, it was simply intolerable! Thinking about it again, but he didn't know what to say to Yue Qinglan? I don't know what Yue Qinglan will think of him? Will Yue Qinglan see him as a political villain like Fang Huaizheng? Fang Huaizheng's story has now spread all over the city......

Not a single day of the 73-day trial was easy, and for more than two months, it was as if the people from the procuratorate had been transferred to the court. The nine-member public prosecution group headed by Yue Qinglan has been under great mental pressure in the face of many defendants on the defense bench and a strong defense camp. Although the observer units have done their work in accordance with the requirements of the municipal party committee, and there have been no more court disturbances, the resistance of the observers in some units is still very great, and incidents of applauding still occur from time to time. There are also many masters among the defendant's lawyers, and the court debates have always been very fierce, especially in the determination of facts and the application of law for dereliction of duty and abuse of power. When prosecuting a deputy head of the fire brigade for dereliction of duty, even Gao Xinying, a seasoned top ten public prosecutor, fell into passivity. This deputy detachment leader bears unshirkable responsibility for the safety inspection, but he was seriously burned during the "August 13" firefighting, and the bandages on his neck have not yet been removed, and it is completely understandable that the observers sympathize with him, and the defender's defense is extremely emotional, and the legal facts stated by Gao Xinying are invisibly discounted, and it is even considered to be "sending the hero to court." However, it is precisely because of these fierce debates that every key detail in the "August 13" case and the legal responsibility of each defendant have been further clarified, and finally provided a sufficient basis for the verdict.

The Pengcheng Intermediate People's Court sentenced Liu Tieshan to seven years in prison for the maximum sentence for the crime of arson; Zhou Xiuying was sentenced to 15 years in prison for the crimes of accepting bribes and abusing power; Su Quangui was sentenced to death for the crimes of fire protection accidents, bribery, organizing gangs with the nature of the underworld, and kidnapping and homicide; Tang Yunke and others were sentenced to 12 years in prison each for accepting bribes and abusing power, and Wang Yancheng was sentenced to 15 years in prison for accepting bribes, abusing power, and harboring underworld criminal organizations; Thirty-two other defendants involved in the case were also sentenced to prison terms ranging in length. Almost all of the 12 defendants convicted of dereliction of duty and abuse of power were subject to the maximum sentence under the Penal Code, which was seven years. The injured derelict deputy head of the fire brigade did not escape justice, and although he was sentenced to two years in prison, suspended for three years, despite his own performance in fighting fires.

It should be said that the verdict in the entire "13 August" case has a sufficient legal basis and is both fair and severe. After the court's verdict was announced, Liu Tieshan and the other 19 defendants all pleaded guilty and accepted the law and did not appeal.

However, there was a major disagreement between the prosecution and the court over the sentencing of Ms. Zhou. Zhou Xiuying accepted a bribe of 500,000 yuan, and the applicable sentence is nine years, and the applicable sentence for the crime of abuse of power is seven years, and the combined execution is 15 years, which is not a major problem in law. When Zhou Xiuying and her defense lawyer made their final statements, they also reversed their performance in previous court hearings and expressed their admitting to the verdict and accepting the law. Yue Qinglan filed a protest on behalf of the procuratorate, pointing out: Although Zhou Xiuying's bribes did not meet the death penalty standard, the consequences of accepting bribes were extremely serious, and she should be sentenced to death, and demanded that Zhou Xiuying's criminal punishment be increased. Zhou Xiuying shouted in court on the spot, saying that Yue Qinglan was a communiqué revenge, and after discussing with her two defense lawyers, she changed her attitude of admitting the sentence and obeying the law on the spot, and appealed on the grounds that the sentence was too heavy.

Zhou Xiuying's reaction was expected by Yue Qinglan, and after submitting a protest to the court, Yue Qinglan didn't look at Zhou Xiuying again, and led the prosecution director Gao Xinying and other eight comrades to act collectively and leave the prosecution seat together.

What happened next was unexpected by Yue Qinglan, Yue Qinglan couldn't have imagined that at the same time that Zhou Xiuying reacted, the families of the fire victims also reacted, and vented their dissatisfaction with the verdict to her and the procuratorate, and after the verdict ended, they surrounded her, Gao Xinying and others.

It happened suddenly, without warning. During the 33-day trial, Yue Qinglan and the comrades in the prosecution office acted collectively, coming in the same MPV and walking in the same MPV, and this Mitsubishi MPV was parked in the backyard of the court. But I can't go on this day. Yue Qinglan, Gao Xinying and others walked out of the back door of the courthouse and noticed that hundreds of people had gathered in front of the MPV, and a large blood-red slogan was also hung on the body of the MPV: "Blood debts must be repaid with blood, and I strongly demand that the murderer Liu Tieshan be severely punished!" ”

Gao Xin was clever, and when he saw that the situation was not right, he and a few gay men around him wanted to protect Yue Qinglan and retreat.

Yue Qinglan was careless, didn't take it seriously, pushed Gao Xinying away and said, "What are you afraid of?" Let's explain! ”

Gao Xinying said: "Yue Jian, what do you explain? The judgment is made by the court, and the court will interpret it! ”

At this moment, those men and women crowded to the steps in front of them, surrounded Yue Qinglan, and shouted: "Procurator General, you have to explain this!" Why did Liu Tieshan get such a light sentence? How did you sue you! ”

"One hundred and fifty-six people died, and they were only sentenced to seven years, so why didn't your procuratorate protest?!"

"Yue Qinglan, you said, how much benefit did you and the procuratorate receive from Liu Tieshan and Pengcheng Mining Group?!"

"This Liu Tieshan has to be sentenced to death, not killing is not enough to anger the people!"

"Yes, we want Liu Tieshan to fight for those one hundred and fifty-six people!"

…………

In the midst of this moment, Yue Qinglan, Gao Xinying, and the comrades of the prosecution office were divided and surrounded. Yue Qinglan was still barely standing on the steps at that time, in a condescending position, and saw her love encircling Gao Xinying three steps away, being pushed around by the men and women who were in jī motion.

Yue Qinglan didn't expect that something would happen at this time, let alone that someone would attack her at the door of the courtroom, in a public place in full view. She was still trying to explain, so she waved her hand and shouted: "Be quiet, everyone be quiet, don't be so noisy!" If you really want to hear me explain, please get out of the way and back off! ”

The crowd in front of him moved away a little, and it was quieter, Gao Xinying took the opportunity to get out, squeezed in front of Yue Qinglan, separated the crowd close at hand with his body, reached Yue Qinglan behind him, and signaled Yue Qinglan to retreat again.

Yue Qinglan still didn't retreat, pulled Gao Xinying away, faced the men and women under the steps, and said loudly: "Everyone has to find out, what crime did Liu Tieshan commit?" Is it arson? Is it homicide? Neither! Everyone has seen the trial process of the court, and the human and physical evidence has also been seen, it is a fire! The maximum sentencing standard for the crime of arson is seven years in prison, and it is precisely because the consequences of the 'August 13' fire were extremely serious, causing 156 deaths, that the court sentenced the punishment heavily! There is nothing wrong with our prosecution, and neither is the court's decision! ”

In the crowd, a young man shouted: "Didn't you say that it was arson?" How did it turn into a misfire? ”

Yue Qinglan said: "Who said it was arson?" If you think it's arson, show us the evidence! ”

The young man squeezed in front of Yue Qinglan: "You have to take this evidence from the chief prosecutor, as long as you don't cover it up!" ”

Yue Qinglan warned: "This young gentleman, I ask you to be careful when you speak, don't talk about it!" ”

The young man cried all at once: "I am talking about it? My wife burned to death for no apparent reason, and burned to a piece of charcoal, she ...... She is still pregnant, two lives! Liu Tieshan was only sentenced to seven years, and said...... Does that make sense? ”

Yue Qinglan immediately appeared in front of her eyes, it was a miserable pregnant photo, I don't know if it was the young man's wife? His heart softened, and he comforted him kindly: "Young man, don't be so aggressive, okay?" I can understand the feelings of you and the families of the victims! However, the law is the law, and we must enforce the law in vain, right? We all have to respect the law, don't we? ”

The young man couldn't listen at all, wiped his tears, and shouted heedlessly: "Prosecutor Yue, don't talk to me so much!" This Liu Tieshan has to be sentenced to death, and he has to be cut with a thousand knives! It doesn't matter if he catches fire or sets fire! ”

Many people also shouted: "Yes, death penalty, death penalty!" ”

"You also have to protest against Liu Tieshan, this matter is not over!"

"Zhou Xiuying deserves to die, Liu Tieshan deserves to die too!"

"Liu Tieshan is directly responsible, and the crime is greater than Zhou Xiuying!"

"One life is worth one life, you have to shoot Liu Tieshan one hundred and fifty-six times!"

…………

Faced with this kind of scene, Yue Qinglan really didn't know what to say, and she couldn't help but feel sad in her heart, she remembered the current situation that Secretary Xiao Chen mentioned to her intentionally or unintentionally after the last meeting of the Provincial Procuratorate. Now that I think about it, maybe Secretary Xiao Chen expected such a problem at that time, but it's not good to tell her, right?

Yue Qinglan felt a chill in her heart: This is another reality that the Chinese legal system must face, and people's feelings often replace the law consciously or unconsciously. She would never believe that after observing the trial for 73 days, the people in front of her still did not know what the crime of arson was. The only explanation can only be that when people's feelings and the law contradict each other, the sense of law is weakened, or even non-existent! This is actually another challenge to the law, a very common challenge. It is precisely because of the long-term existence of this challenge that there has been a human tragedy similar to that of the old nǎinǎi and the child being buried alive in the history of the Republic!

Yue Qinglan didn't care to explain anything, and in the midst of the crowding and noise, she rushed around with Gao Xinying.

The victims' families quit, making noise and blocking everywhere, neither letting Yue Qinglan and Gao Xinying return to the courthouse, nor letting Yue Qinglan and Gao Xinying approach the MPV more than a dozen steps away.

Suddenly! Something that Yue Qinglan didn't expect at all happened at this moment: someone took advantage of the opportunity to stab Yue Qinglan in the tún part with a fruit knife. After Yue Qinglan was stabbed, she didn't react for a while, and she still walked a few steps in the push and shove of the victims' families.

It was a woman behind Yue Qinglan who exclaimed first: "Blood! Bloody...... Someone stabbed the Prosecutor General! ”

Almost at the same time, a sharp pain swept over, and Yue Qinglan realized that she had been plotted, and when she turned her head, she saw that the kùzi in Zuo Tuǐ's uniform had been soaked in blood.

As if hearing some order, the men and women surrounding Yue Qinglan suddenly retreated in horror.

At this time, someone shouted: "The murderer is among us, close the door, don't let the murderer escape!" ”

Many people just woke up from a dream, and the comrades who cooperated with the prosecution department and the bailiffs of several courts closed the door of the backyard and the two side doors leading to the court. At this time, Yue Qinglan fell softly into Gao Xinying's arms.

Gao Xinying couldn't believe the reality in front of her, and hugged Yue Qinglan, who was covered in blood, and didn't know what to say.

Around him, many family members of the victims said again: "Yue Zhen, this is not what we did!" ”

"Yue Zhen, we have an opinion on the verdict, but we won't attack you, and you didn't cause the fire!"

"Yes, yes. Yue Jian, no matter how big our opinions are, we won't do this! ”

Gao Xinying couldn't listen to it anymore, covered Yue Qinglan's still bleeding wound, and cried out with tears: "Okay, okay!" Shut up, all of you! Isn't it like you're making such a fuss, can this happen? Get out, get out of the way! ”

Yue Qinglan felt that Gao Xinying was too rude, and asked Gao Xinying not to say anything, and she said a few words to the victim's family in front of her: "Everyone ...... Don't be afraid! I know in my heart, this ...... You didn't do that! But your hearts are ...... You must also have a number, and you must not replace the law with feelings......"

Speaking of which, Yue Qinglan had already lost too much blood, and she was tired for days during the trial, so she actually fainted-

Yue Qinglan was assassinated and hospitalized, Xiao Chen got the news a little earlier than Tang Xushan, secretary of the Pengcheng City Party Committee, and others, Gao Xinying found Xiao Chen's phone number in Yue Qinglan's mobile phone, and dialed Xiao Chen on the way to send Yue Qinglan to the hospital. At the beginning, Xiao Chen's secretary Chen Dang answered the phone call, and at that time, Xiao Chen gave a speech at the Party School of the Provincial Party Committee on the advanced nature education of the first-class cadres of the newly trained county and department-level organization cadres.

Xiao Chen had an explanation to Chen Kang, and the phone calls of the Pengcheng Municipal Party Committee, the Commission for Discipline Inspection, the Procuratorate, the court, and other aspects must be reported to him in a timely manner. But at that time, Xiao Chen was talking when Chen Dang received the call, so he told Gao Xinying that Secretary Xiao was in a meeting, and the call could be made in half an hour. Gao Xinying didn't know enough about the leadership at the level of the provincial party committee, and he felt a little bit like a green man at that time, saying that Secretary Xiao wanted us to take all our actions on the basis of the law, and now that we have done it, Yue Jian has been assassinated, and your Secretary Xiao will have a meeting at this time, and everything will be ignored?

Yue Jian, Yue Qinglan? She was assassinated! Chen Dare has been Xiao Chen's secretary for a while, he knows Xiao Chen's personality, if such a thing is conveyed late, it will definitely be criticized! He didn't care too much at that time, so he hurriedly walked to Xiao Chen's side, and whispered to Xiao Chen: "Secretary Xiao, Prosecutor General Pengcheng Yue Qinglan was assassinated after the trial......

Xiao Chen's indifferent face suddenly became difficult to look at in an instant, and the sharp light in his eyes was like substance, and the county and department-level organization cadres in the audience were suddenly silent, and their hearts beat violently: What is going on?

"Assassinated?!" Xiao Chen frowned, and asked coldly: "How is she?" When did it happen? Who did it, have you found out? ”

For the first time, Chen Dang saw Xiao Chen's face become so grim, and his tone became so cold, he didn't dare to speak at the moment, and hurriedly sent the mobile phone up.

Xiao Chen took the phone with a cold face, and looked at the number, it was Yue Qinglan's mobile phone: "I'm Xiao Chen, what's the matter?" ”

When Gao Xinying heard Secretary Xiao's cold tone, she didn't dare to continue to "leng", but only replied: "Secretary Xiao, I am Gao Xinying, the prosecutor of the procuratorate, we came out after the trial just now, and the families of the victims of the August 13 fire were stuck in traffic and making trouble...... We are on our way to the hospital for emergency treatment. ”

After listening to this, Xiao Chen took a deep breath: "I know, you go to the hospital to help me convey it, ask the hospital to provide the best treatment for Yue Jian with the highest efficiency, if Yue Jian wakes up, you can help me convey a word, just say it...... Blood does not flow in vain. ”

Gao Xinying thanked him a few words, Xiao Chen hung up the phone, temporarily interrupted the meeting, and asked Yang Yaomin, the organization minister of the provincial party committee who accompanied him to the meeting, to preside over the meeting for him. Then Xiao Chen walked back and forth on the aisle for two minutes, picked up the phone again, dialed another number, and the words "Secretary Yuan Zhuo" were displayed on the mobile phone screen.
