Chen Xing dropped Zhang Ningning to the airport the next morning, and Zhang Ningning took a 9 a.m. flight to the capital, and after 9 a.m., Chen Xing returned to the city government.

Xiao Yuanqing, who went to Nangang District for a field visit last night, came to Chen Xing's office in time and reported to Chen Xing what he knew.

Chen Xing listened to what Xiao Yuanqing said, his brows were also tightly wrinkled, this involves an industrial planning problem in Nanzhou City, Nangang District is a petrochemical industry area planned in the city, the petrochemical industry is a heavy polluting industry, if the pollution is not dealt with well, the problems will be very strict, according to Xiao Yuanqing said, many enterprises in the area have not strictly followed the environmental protection requirements to control and deal with pollution.

"Let's go, you can come with me to Nangang again." Chen Xing called Xiao Yuanqing, plus the secretary Deng Qingming, and the three of them went to Nangang in a light car.

Municipal Public Security Bureau.

In an interrogation room on the fifth floor, two policemen yawned, looking at the young man with eyes in front of him, one of the policemen asked a little impatiently, "You kid has a hard mouth, I sue you, don't force us to you, our patience is also limited, you kid had better get to know each other." ”

"I didn't commit any crime at all, why did the people from your public security bureau arrest me and make me confess my crimes, I didn't commit a crime, and I have no crimes to confess." There was a trace of sleepiness on the young man's face, and he was interrogated all night, and the strong light above his head made him very uncomfortable, and his spirit was a little sluggish.

"You honestly confess to yourself, did you organize and plan behind the illegal gathering of the villagers and besieging the city government this time." One of the thin-faced policemen asked with a cold face, yawning a few times as he spoke.

"The villagers legally express their demands and wishes, and in your mouth, it becomes an illegal assembly, and you can really turn black and white upside down." The young man glanced at the other party mockingly, "I am also a member of Datou Village, I came here with the people in the village, and in your eyes, it has become an organization and planner. ”

"Don't chew words with us, I know that you are a top student at Capital University, and you can speak very well with one mouth, but I sue you, you have entered the Public Security Bureau, and it is useless for you to speak with one mouth, if you don't explain honestly, there will be hardships for you to eat later." The thin-faced policeman glared and asked, mainly because he was interrogating, and another companion was in charge of recording, the two actually received the task, and they must make the young man admit that he illegally organized the villagers to besiege the city government, even if there is no such thing, it has to become such a thing, in short, the meaning of the leader is obvious, that is, it is better to be guilty, and it has to become guilty if there is no guilt.

The young man no longer paid attention, squinting his eyes and trying to recuperate, he knew that there must be more difficult situations to face in the future, and he had heard that the public security bureau had many methods for interrogating prisoners, and few of them could withstand the tricks, and there was no lack of torture into tricks, the young man did not believe in this evil, he believed that he could survive by his own will, and he did not believe that the people of the public security bureau really dared to come lawlessly.

"Ah, that's really a backbone." The thin-faced policeman stood up angrily, tossed for a night, and couldn't rest with his colleagues, but the task assigned by the leader was not at all, the thin-faced man also became angry, and glanced at his companion beside him, the two took out a thick book from the drawer, and the thin-faced man sneered and walked to the young man's side, "Let your mouth be hard, let you taste a little bitter first, if you don't say it, there are big moves waiting for you later." ”

"You dare?" The young man glared at each other angrily, "You are a crime, and you are still wearing police uniforms, what is the difference between you and the underworld." ”

"Hey, the young man looks like he just graduated, so simple." The thin-faced man slapped the young man's face and laughed, and another companion had already cooperated to put the book on the young man's chest, and the thin-faced man smashed it with two punches.

"Boy, isn't it comfortable? The two brothers spent the night with you, and you thought we didn't dare to give you a lot, wow, a doctoral student at Capital University, it's so big, it's scary. The thin-faced man sneered, and the expression on his face was also vivid, but the movements in his hands did not stop, and he smashed it several times before he stopped a little relieved, so that the beating would not leave any scars, and it could also beat people into internal injuries.

"Lao Wang, it's time to eat after the fight, damn, my body has been a little weak recently, and I can't bear it after a night without sleeping, and now my stomach is even more hungry, it's more than nine o'clock." The man with the book put it back and beckoned to the thin-faced man.

"I have to come over after eating, the task assigned by the leader has not been completed, this kid owes it to clean up, and it will be tried again later, if he still doesn't open his mouth, give him some ruthlessness, see if he still has a hard mouth." The thin-faced man pursed his lips, his gaze swept over the young man, and he was stunned for a moment, "I'm X, this kid is so awesome, can Lao Tzu still fall asleep if he beats him?" ”

"Isn't it?" The other turned his head in surprise and saw that the young man's eyes under a pair of glasses were tightly closed, and he was also happy, "This kid is really wonderful, didn't he sleep all night, he can also fall asleep like this?" ”

The thin-faced man walked up to the young man in confusion, stretched out his hand and slapped it on his face, "Hey, who told you to sleep, get up." ”

"Sleeping so dead?" Another person also walked over.

"Something seems wrong." The thin-faced man patted the young man's face and soon felt abnormal, and put his hand under the young man's nostrils, and suddenly, the thin-faced man was so frightened that he took several steps back, his face pale, "This kid is dead...... He's dead. ”

After listening to the words of the thin-faced man, the companion also hurriedly looked at it, and after a while, both of them were sure that the young man was indeed dead, the two looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of fear in each other's eyes, this person died in their hands, the two did not dare to think further, the thin-faced man asked his companion to stay in the interrogation room, and he hurriedly went out, and he had to report this matter to the leader quickly.

Soon, Zeng Jiangtao, the captain of the three major teams of the criminal police, received the news, Zeng Jiangtao, who received the news, also jumped up in fright, and after asking what was going on, Zeng Jiangtao scolded the thin-faced man with a slashing head and covering his face, "Waste, waste, you can't even do this thing, and you two have taken your life, you two grew up eating shit." ”

"Boss, now is not the time to scold, hurry up and think about how to deal with the aftermath, don't you think it's strange to say this, you can't kill people like this, I've never touched this kind of thing before." The thin-faced man boldly replied.

"Quick, you hurry up and let the forensic doctor check it, the news must be blocked, there are forensic doctors in the interrogation room except for the two of you, no one is allowed to enter, I will go and report to the Zhang Bureau first." Zeng Jiangtao quickly came back to his senses, now is not the time to get angry, this matter is not big, it is not small, the key is that the young man is still a student, a doctoral student at Capital University, if this matter is exposed, the impact will be even worse. (In the book, try to avoid using real place names and school names, all of which are fictitious, so don't sit in the right seat.) ）

When Chen Xing and Xiao Yuanqing and others had just left the city government for a while, Zhang Qingyang, executive deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, hurriedly came by car and walked into Li Haocheng's office quickly. ”

"What?" Li Haocheng, who was working at the office, stood up in shock and stared at Zhang Qingyang, "What's the matter?" Didn't you want to arrest people, why did they die? ”

"The people below interrogated him all night last night, and the kid didn't open his mouth, and said some ugly things, and the two people who interrogated him were more short-tempered, so they wanted to teach him a lesson, but the kid died in a few clicks." Zhang Qingyang said helplessly, this thing is really fucked up, after he heard Zeng Jiangtao say what happened, he also felt incredible, it is impossible for a normal person to die after being beaten so many times.

"What did you do to him, how did you die so easily?" Li Haocheng had a gloomy face, and it was his instruction to arrest Song Yi, Li Haocheng was deeply impressed by Song Yi, because the other party was a doctoral student at Capital University, which was also a genuine high-achieving student in Li Haocheng's eyes, and the villagers of Datou Village gathered to petition several times, all of which were initiated by the other party, Li Haocheng was very disgusted by this, the young man was highly educated, and he was also a thorn, and he had been encouraging the villagers to know how to use legal weapons to protect their rights and interests, otherwise there would not be so many things behind.

"I didn't do anything, I just interrogated him all night, and one of the policemen punched him a few times through the book." Zhang Qingyang explained, seeing that Li Haocheng didn't believe it, Zhang Qingyang smiled bitterly, "Mayor Li, it's really only like this, I don't dare to lie to you if I lie, this matter is very strange, and the forensic doctor is currently identifying his body." ”

Li Haocheng stared at Zhang Qingyang for a while, still a little unconvinced of Zhang Qingyang's words, but Zhang Qingyang said so, he could only wait for the result, as far as this matter is concerned, the two are in the same boat, and it is not good for anyone if something happens.

The two waited in the office for a while, and soon, Zhang Qingyang received a call from the bureau, the forensic identification results came out, it was primary cardiomyopathy, and the cause of the deceased's death may have been due to trauma, fatigue and other reasons caused by cardiac arrest.

"Speaking of which, it's the people below you who are to blame." Li Haocheng said angrily, "It's good now, a big living person went in and came out lying down all night, how can he explain to the outside world?" That stinky boy is still a doctoral student at Capital University, and I am afraid that this matter will also attract the attention of the school, and it will be a trouble for the school to find it. ”

Zhang Qingyang listened to Li Haocheng's complaints, lowered his head slightly, and secretly scolded Li Haocheng in his heart, it was not his Li Haocheng's instructions to arrest Song Yi in, to give Song Yi a crime and let the other party be honest, this is also from Li Haocheng's secret instructions, although Li Haocheng did not say such a thing, but there is this kind of hint, otherwise why would he be full and go to clean up a school student.

"Is the message blocked?" Li Haocheng also knew that now was not the time to get angry, so he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Qingyang.

"It's blocked, except for the two people who interrogated Song Yi last night, only me and Jiang Tao know, by the way, count the forensic doctor." Zhang Qingyang nodded and said, when this kind of thing happened, the first thing Zhang Qingyang thought of was to strictly prevent news leakage.

"It's good to block it." Li Haocheng nodded, his face was still ugly, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he was thinking of a way to deal with it.

"Mayor Li, paper can't contain the fire, the news can be blocked for a while, but after all, it can't be hidden for a long time, after all, we have to find a solution." Zhang Qingyang reminded him, he was in a hurry to come over, undoubtedly to discuss the aftermath with Li Haocheng, the two must maintain a unified voice, so as not to show their feet to the outside world.

"Well, it's to find a way to deal with it as soon as possible, and when it's exposed, it's passive." Li Haocheng frowned, paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and walked for a while, Li Haocheng looked at Zhang Qingyang very decisively, "Qingyang, those two policemen in charge of interrogation can't be saved, they must come out to take this responsibility, and those two policemen belong to Zeng Jiangtao's three major criminal police teams, right?" You have to be mentally prepared, Zeng Jiangtao may also stand up and take responsibility, so as to calm public opinion. ”

"Jiang Tao can't be insured?" Zhang Qingyang looked at Li Haocheng in embarrassment, Zeng Jiangtao was his confidant and had done a lot of things for him, Zhang Qingyang obviously wanted to hold Zeng Jiangtao, not to mention that in this matter, Zeng Jiangtao was just an executor, Li Haocheng hinted at him, and he instructed Zeng Jiangtao.

"Do you think it's realistic for just two little policemen to come out and take responsibility? The people will not agree, and public opinion will not believe it, if you want to minimize the pressure of public opinion, you have to introduce a person with a little weight to take on this responsibility, Zeng Jiangtao is the captain of the criminal police, it is appropriate for him to stand up, is it possible that you, the executive deputy bureau, want to stand up in person? Li Haocheng glanced at Zhang Qingyang coldly, for him, sacrificing a Zeng Jiangtao is nothing, and it is worth it to calm this matter.

"Okay, then I'll go back and talk to Jiang Tao, do his psychological work, and let him be mentally prepared." Zhang Qingyang nodded helplessly, Li Haocheng's approach was ruthless and indifferent, but there was nothing wrong, little people are always used to sacrifice, the reality is so cruel, just pushing out the two policemen who tried Song Yi is not enough to be convincing.

"Don't think about the worst now, if the pressure of public opinion is not great, it may be enough to give a major demerit, expulsion from the police is the worst plan, the key at present is to see how we deal with it, covering the lid is not a way, you should go back immediately now, take the initiative to notify Song Yi's family, and at the same time hold a press conference to announce this matter to the outside world, and those who should stand up and take responsibility will stand up, so that they can take the lead and not be passive, and when the time comes, it can also reduce some public opinion pressure, don't wait for anyone to be exposed." Li Haocheng saw that Zhang Qingyang was not very reluctant, so he could only comfort the other party, his mind was thinking quickly at the same time, telling Zhang Qingyang how to respond, I have to say that Li Haocheng's instructions this time were fast and accurate.

"Okay, then I'll go back now, and then I'll see how things develop, if I can, I still hope to save Jiang Tao." Zhang Qingyang nodded, stood up and prepared to go back.

"Let's go, hurry." Li Haocheng did not keep it, and took the initiative to send Zhang Qingyang to the door.

Zhang Qingyang hurried back to the Public Security Bureau to deal with the aftermath, Chen Xing and his entourage were already almost in Nangang District, it would take about 40 minutes to drive from the city center to Nangang District, Xiao Yuanqing and Chen Xing sat in the back seat of the car, Deng Qingming sat in the front passenger seat, Chen Xing looked at the city's planning for the petrochemical industry zone in Nangang District found out by Deng Qingming, and asked Xiao Yuanqing at the same time.

Chen Xing looked at Wen Jiàn, and at the same time listened to Xiao Yuanqing say some situations, and finally knew why Li Haocheng's reaction was so intense, the petrochemical industrial zone can be said to be promoted by Li Haocheng, and when negotiating with petrochemical giants such as PetroChina and Sinopec, Li Haocheng also came forward, and finally promoted the two petrochemical industry giants to settle in Nangang District, and then the municipal government matched, and introduced a number of petrochemical enterprises to enter the petrochemical industry zone in Nangang District, which is also Li Haocheng is actively running.

It is no wonder that when facing those petitioners yesterday, Li Haocheng would take such tough measures, and Li Haocheng dared to do so, because this petrochemical industrial zone has also received the attention of the province, and the province is already planning to establish a petrochemical industry cluster in Nanhai Province, and this is to be planned on the basis of the petrochemical industrial zone in Nanzhou City.

Xiao Yuanqing saw that Chen Xing was quite satisfied with his answer, and his heart was also a lot more relaxed, these were all things he spent an afternoon and evening to collect and understand temporarily, Chen Xing transferred him to the office as the deputy director, Xiao Yuanqing naturally knew what kind of role he had to undertake, Chen Xing had just arrived, and many things depended on him to complete the collection, summary and transmission of news.

"I heard from Vice Mayor Shao yesterday that our city's first hospital has also opened a green channel for cancer in Nangang District?" Chen Xing turned his head and glanced at Xiao Yuanqing again.

"Well, there is this thing, to be exact, it is called 'Cancer Green Channel in Gangwan Town, Nangang District', I learned about it, there are too many cancer patients there, and they are mainly concentrated in Datou Village and its surrounding areas, Datou Village is the most, and many people in our city privately call it 'Cancer Village'." Xiao Yuanqing said.

Listening to what Xiao Yuanqing said, Chen Xing's mood was very heavy, and he remembered the poems in Zhang Yanghao's "Mountain Slope Sheep and Tong Care for the Ancients": Xing, the people are bitter; Death, the people suffer; This is a sad and cruel fact, a harmonious society is not harmonious, Chen Xing, as a member of the system, as a vested interest, in the face of such a fact, Chen Xing himself feels sad.

"Mayor, in front of you is Datou Village, the most polluted area." When the car entered the township, Xiao Yuanqing pointed to a village on the side of the highway and said to Chen Xing, "Only across the river from the village is the planned 20 square kilometers of petrochemical industry zone, the river has now been completely polluted, there is no grass around the river, farmland is scrapped, air pollution and water pollution make the people suffer from all kinds of deadly cancer and respiratory diseases, just when I came over yesterday afternoon, I actually met three families at the same time doing funerals, not far apart, all died of cancer, the older one is only 59 years old, One of the two younger ones is just 40 years old this year, the other is 35 years old, and one of the three has esophageal cancer and two have lung cancer. ”

Xiao Yuanqing told Chen Xing about the situation he saw yesterday afternoon, his voice was heavy, before he came here, Xiao Yuanqing had also heard of the reputation of the cancer village, but he didn't care much, most people's mentality is that it is not about themselves, Xiao Yuanqing is no exception, anyway, he lives in an urban area with a greening rate of more than 50%, the environment is beautiful, the city also has strict planning, polluting enterprises must move out of the city center, Xiao Yuanqing is not affected by environmental pollution, and he does not have the leisure to pay attention to the affairs of the cancer village, he just feels sympathetic, But he couldn't afford that idleness, and yesterday's on-site visit made Xiao Yuanqing not sleep well all night, and had a nightmare in the middle of the night.

"Get out of the car, get out of the car and see." Chen Xing's heart is very uncomfortable, the miserable situation of the people here may not have anything to do with him before, but now that he has become the mayor of Nanzhou City, he is the parent official of the people in the city, he can't sit idly by, he can't do such a thing, and he is not so ruthless, people's hearts are flesh and blood, Chen Xing thinks that his heart is not black.

The group got out of the car, the unpleasant smell in the air came to the nostrils, Deng Qingming frowned a little uncomfortably, at this time Xiao Yuanqing took out the masks that had been prepared in time and gave them to Chen Xing, Deng Qingming, and Li Yong, and said, "I was also choked yesterday, so I quickly bought a pack of masks and put them in my bag as soon as I returned to the city." ”

"The river is getting worse than a stinking ditch." Chen Xing looked at the small river that was only ten meters away from the road and shook his head.

When a few people were about to go further, a large group of people came out of the village, and the noise was very loud, and it was obvious that some of them were very excited, and some were crying, and a large group of people walked towards the side of the road, Xiao Yuanqing saw that his heart sank again, "It won't be someone who died again." ”

"It doesn't look like it, the funeral should be dressed in linen and filial piety, but these people don't." Chen Xing shook his head and said, at this time, he didn't know what happened to the Public Security Bureau, let alone that it would make a few people who came to Datou Village alone almost fall into danger.
