Chapter 46: Tragedy
Listening to Tao Feifei's words, Li Xiaoning couldn't help but be a little silent. Yes, he is now just a small secretary of the Youth League and County Party Committee, with no power or power, and he is angry, but he also has the heart of worrying about the country and the people, but he has no power to govern the country.
On the way back, the more Li Xiaoning thought about it, the more unwilling he felt, what had happened, he was powerless, but now that he is the secretary of the Youth League Committee of Dongping County, he will never allow a similar incident to happen again.
"Fei Fei, let's not go back to the county seat first." Li Xiaoning retracted his thoughts and said, "Let's go back, I estimate that Taoyuan Primary School is not an exception, and the school buildings of other schools are estimated to have similar situations, we must know the current situation of all schools in the county and think of ways in advance." Today, I'm going to take a look at all the school buildings in Dongshan Town. ”
Li Xiaoning has already planned to settle things, but some people are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. People from the Education Bureau and the Public Security Bureau went down to deal with the collapse of the school building, and instead of talking about how to deal with the aftermath and compensation, they went directly to the home of the deceased student and demanded that the family immediately cremate the child.
The child's parents are also honest people, the child died, they were in pain, and they didn't think about anything to make up for it, and they didn't feel sad yet. When she saw that everyone from the Public Security Bureau was coming, she immediately panicked, and the mother hugged her son's body and didn't let go.
If no one else was present at this time, the child's body might have been snatched away directly, and once cremated, there would really be nothing wrong. However, just because the child's parents are honest people does not mean that his relatives and friends are also honest people.
An uncle in a suit, with his trousers rolled up and white socks exposed, stood up, he was the fourth uncle of the dead child, who had worked outside for several years, and was considered a person who had "seen the world", and knew that the government now attaches the most importance to maintaining stability, and the death of the child is a good time for blackmail.
The fourth uncle jumped forward, stopped the people from the Education Bureau and the Public Security Bureau, stretched out five fingers and said: "If you want to be cremated, you can take five million, not a penny, my nephew died unjustly, he was killed by your tofu scum project, if you don't give money, we will go to Yanjing to sue the emperor!" ”
A staff member of the Education Bureau said angrily: "We are not here to discuss the issue of compensation with you today, the body must be cremated as much as possible, and the follow-up matters can be discussed." ”
"Are you a liar? The body is cremated, where else do we ask for money? We will not be cremated without money, and in the afternoon we will carry the body to the county government. "The fourth uncle's attitude is also very tough.
The two sides are arguing with each other and do not give in to each other, this fourth uncle doesn't look at the turtle, he is really a character, and he will not fall behind in the face of the police.
The two sides kept arguing for an hour, during which the police and prosecutors tried to snatch the corpse, but the anger of the family members also came up, and they directly used hoes and shovels to beat the people from the Education Bureau and the Public Security Bureau.
These people didn't expect to encounter such stubborn resistance, and they didn't bring special police, for fear that they would suffer if they continued to make trouble, so they had to withdraw first.
The fourth uncle was also an unconscious master, and when he saw the victory in the first battle, he suddenly became more energetic, and went to the village to find some thorny young people, and actually carried the corpse and went to the county seat in a mighty way, planning to go to the county government to make trouble.
Li Xiaoning and Tao Feifei visited the school in Dongshan Town, and when they went back, they were blocked when they walked to a bridge that they had to pass into the county seat, because thousands of people had gathered on the bridge, completely blocking the traffic.
Seeing that the traffic on the bridge was blocked, Li Xiaoning had no choice but to park the car on the side of the road, climb on a dirt slope next to it, and look at the bridge, only to see that the bridge was full of cars parked in a mess, and all the space left by motor vehicles was crowded with people. Looking forward at the bridgehead until there is no end in sight, thousands of heads are crowded, densely packed with people. Looking back again, the road that I came over just now was also full of people and cars at this time, and it was impossible for the car that had just been squeezed in to retreat after thinking about it.
The surrounding crowd is still desperately squeezing on the bridge, wanting to squeeze to the bridge to see what is going on, and the people in the distance on the opposite side are also desperately hugging on the bridge, wanting to hug the bridge to see it, so the center of the bridge has become a gathering center for people desperately crowding and hoping to arrive.
The people in front of and behind him were all talking nonsense, and there was a noise around them, but after a while, it turned into a uniform slogan:
"Down with corrupt officials!"
"No one cares when the student dies! Unreasonable! Unreasonable! ”
"Be fair! Be fair! ”
Li Xiaoning saw from a distance that a four-wheeled tractor was parked in the middle of the bridge, surrounded by a circle of people wearing linen and filial piety, and nearly 100 heavily armed special police officers stood opposite. A corpse covered in a white cloth could be faintly found in the car.
"What's going on? Who is the deceased? Li Xiaoning hurriedly asked the surrounding crowd.
"I heard that it was a student in Dongshan Town, the school collapsed and was stoned to death! Poor thing! A dark-skinned middle-aged man said in a regretful tone.
"These corrupt officials know how to make money, and even schools dare to build tofu scum projects! It's so unconscionable. A young man with glasses who looked like a high school student said indignantly.
"When a person dies and doesn't deal with the aftermath, what's the matter with running here?" Li Xiaoning frowned and asked. He already knew that the students in the car were stoned to death in the morning, but he didn't understand why there was such a fuss.
The student immediately enthusiastically explained: "It's not those bastards who are officials, they went to people's homes to grab the corpses to be cremated, and the families of the people were not happy, so they carried the corpses to the county government to seek justice. The crowd of onlookers couldn't stand it, so they joined the demonstration camp together. The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, and I will also go to cheer. With that, the student left Li Xiaoning behind and squeezed towards the middle of the bridge.
Li Xiaoning's brows couldn't help frowning, it was obvious that the development of this matter had changed its taste, originally this matter was barely regarded as a natural disaster, but it was just a matter of compensation, but now after this trouble, coupled with people with ulterior motives instigating it, the angry youths coaxed it together, and suddenly became a group ** piece.
The most important thing in Huaxia is those angry young people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic and feel that the whole world is dark except for their own hearts. What they are accustomed to doing is to take things out of context and stir up trouble. As everyone knows, there are many social problems, and our responsibility is to solve them, not to intensify them. The problem needs to be solved, but it must be solved reasonably. By making such a fuss, they will not only do nothing, but will make things that are easy to solve more complicated, and will only involve more innocent people.
At the moment when Li Xiaoning was thinking about how to persuade everyone to disperse first, the student who was talking to Li Xiaoning just now had already squeezed to the front, climbed onto the tractor, and shouted frantically: "Comrades, don't break out in the oppression, just in the fourth district of the oppression, let me stand up and die today!" ”
The crowd was encouraged and became more energetic, all of them straightened their backs and held their heads high, I don't know who shouted, "If you don't defeat the corrupt officials today, you will never be done." Immediately aroused the feelings of the masses to the extreme, and there were people in the crowd who kept shouting:
"Corrupt officials on dog days, get out of here!"
"Mao Qiushi is the biggest corrupt official in Dongping County, let him get out."
The student's face flushed with excitement, he put one arm at his waist, and the other arm was raised high, and suddenly, he raised his arm and shouted: "Down with the corrupt officials!" Punish the filthy officials! Give me back the sky! ”
The student shouted, and the people scattered all over the mountains were suddenly silent for a moment, and then the crowd shouted in unison, as if they had suddenly woken up:
"Down with the corrupt officials! Punish the filthy officials! Give me back the sky! ”
Just as the slogans of the masses were resounding one after another, resounding through the sky, suddenly, there was a commotion on the other side of the bridge, and there was a ** shout: "The police - the inspector has arrested people!" ”
The people around Li Xiaoning also panicked, and everyone talked nonsense: "What are we afraid of when we ask for the punishment of corrupt officials!?" ”
"Do you understand? Demonstrations need to be registered in advance! Otherwise, the police can arrest people! ”
"Damn, let's not knock down the corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and we will be convicted of gathering crowds to make trouble first!"
The people demonstrating up and down the bridge panicked:
"The police have arrested someone!"
"What are you waiting for? Not running yet? ”
"Hey, why are you pushing me?"
"Who pushed you? Fuck, who's fucking stepping on my feet? ”
"Ah, don't squeeze, don't squeeze, ah...... Ah......h
There was a commotion throughout the crowd. Everyone, you squeeze me, I squeeze you, and an unexpected tragedy happened in an instant......
I don't know who started the tractor, the out-of-control tractor crashed through the bridge railing and fell into the river, and I don't know who shouted "The bridge is going to collapse!" This call doesn't matter, it alarmed more people. The frightened people crowded more and more desperately. Finally someone couldn't control their body and fell to the ground, then the second, then the third, then the ......
The police inspectors on the opposite side took out their batons and tried to control the order, but their actions worsened the situation, and many people were forced to jump off the bridge.
Finally, the lime bridge, which had been in disrepair for a long time, could no longer withstand the pressure on its body, and collapsed, and countless people on the bridge, as well as more than a dozen policemen, fell into the river with the collapsed bridge. The sudden fall of the collapsed bridge, vehicles, and crowds of people lifted the quiet river into a splash several feet high.
The splashes spread out into the sky like a huge fishing net, and scattered on the surface of the river with a "bang", stirring up countless new splashes in the river.
The roar of the falling water was as loud as an explosion, and the deafening roar reverberated through the air for a long time, as if it had gone through centuries.
When people's consciousness was restored, there were bursts of exclamations from all over the mountains; All that came and went from the river was the crying of people......
