Chapter 47: A Glimmer of Life

Smoke billowed from the conference room of the headquarters, and the leaders gathered together to discuss the next step.

At this time, the phone rang, Team Leader Xu grabbed the phone, and a voice immediately reached the ears of all the people present. After our careful discussion, we have made the following guiding opinions, and we hope that you will earnestly implement them. First, it is necessary to extensively mobilize the masses and arouse their enthusiasm, set up mass organization committees, expose and denounce the evil elements who have been guilty of the masses in the past, and those counterrevolutionaries that have been hidden and have historical stains or may become hidden dangers in the future, and solve problems in a timely manner. Second, we must deal the most severe blow to the lawless elements hidden within us, who, under our banner, are stirring up trouble and maliciously creating incidents and stirring up troubles, and who are exploiting our loopholes all the time in an attempt to fish in troubled waters and maliciously expand the fruits of our victory. They may sit right among you, colluding inside and out, well-organized, well-trained, and a most cunning class enemy! We must keep our eyes open, see what is going on, pull out the radishes and bring out the mud, and completely and completely destroy them! Third, this vicious incident has taught us a painful lesson, neglected the details, given them an opportunity to take advantage of, and caused losses to the masses of the people. But our will is firm, we will not waver, and we will never change direction because of their trouble! Conscientiously summarize, organize strictly, plug loopholes, and strictly prevent all possible malignant incidents, we believe that we will achieve complete and complete victory! ……

There was silence in the conference room. Everyone can hear the voice on the phone, and the leader's instructions are sonorous and powerful!

Report leader, speaking of which, I have something to report to you, and I am in the process of drafting a written report. That is, the former old secretary himself, I suspect that he has a problem, one of the reasons is that since I came to this job, I found that his work style is lazy, the party spirit is not strong, the historical archives are blank, the background is very complicated and many other doubts, but the reputation is good, I have now temporarily supervised him, please the leadership to instruct and decide! Team Leader Xu orally recounted the decision to wait for trial on Lao Balu.

Oh, I've heard of this person, it's an old revolutionary, but no matter who it is, as long as he has any doubts, he will be questioned, mobilize the masses, investigate and collect evidence, and if there is a problem, he will not tolerate it! I have written down this matter, and our leading group will discuss it again, and this will mainly depend on the results of your investigation; while we do not let go of an enemy, we must never wronged a good comrade, we must seek truth from facts, value evidence, and not be emotional!

Got it!

As soon as Team Leader Xu put down the phone, the phone rang again, he hurriedly grabbed the phone, and heard the other end of the phone ask, is Xu Jian'an there?

Team Leader Xu hurriedly replied, I am Xu Jian'an, who are you?

Who am I? I'm the old superior of the old secretary! You are Xu Jian'an, I heard that you put the old secretary under house arrest, is there such a thing?

Team Leader Xu said that the old leader is good! According to the old leader, we initially suspect that the old secretary has many suspicious points, which are under investigation......

Before Team Leader Xu finished speaking, there was a roar of pain on the other end of the phone, did he have any doubts? Then I also have suspicions, you can arrest me too, we all have a point, everyone is the object of suspicion, tell you, I grew up watching him, if you want to punish his crimes, then treat my crimes first! After speaking, before Team Leader Xu could speak, the phone hung up!

Team Leader Xu put down the phone and looked around the conference room. Everyone's expressions are heavy, there are a lot of sensitive issues involved, and at the same time, everything is a tricky issue, and it is urgent! Team Leader Xu is very sober, since the tide has been set off, he can only strike while the iron is hot, and must not cool down. As for the matter of Lao Balu, he went home last night and asked himself, is this a bit hasty? Without real evidence, is it too arbitrary to rashly supervise this old leader? The words of the two leaders just now are still echoing in his ears, "We must seek truth from facts and emphasize evidence, and don't be emotional"! "He has a little? Then I have doubts! If you cure him, then first cure mine. ”! Yes, doubts are suspicions, facts are facts, seeking truth from facts is our party's consistent style, we can't chase the wind and catch shadows and take it for granted, you see the comrades here, when they mention this matter, their faces will be different, this will inevitably affect the normal daily work, this negative impact can not be ignored! The inner ghost must be caught, this is also the top priority of the current task, this henchman is not eliminated for a day, it will directly lead to the purity of the task or change the direction of the task, this is a big problem! Don't be sloppy!

At this moment, people suddenly heard a noise coming from outside the gate of the headquarters! Everyone pricked up their ears and listened carefully, as if they were asking for the release of the old secretary. At this moment, the herald came in and said that there was a large crowd outside the gate demanding the release of the old secretary!

Team Leader Xu didn't dare to slack off, and immediately got up and walked out of the conference room, and the other leaders followed him.

Team Leader Xu came to the gate, and a lot of people had gathered outside the gate. Team Leader Xu asked everyone, what's going on, do you have anything to say?

What did the old secretary do wrong? How many good things he has done for us and how much credit he has made for the country, how can he have problems? We're here to ask for an explanation! An old man spoke.

Hello folks, since everyone is here, please listen to my explanation. Team Leader Xu said to everyone very gently, we hope that the old secretary is innocent, and we also hope that our comrades are innocent. Our discipline is rigorous, and our supervision of the old secretary is not just supervision and not detention and trial as everyone thinks, these are two different concepts, please don't misunderstand! When the time comes, we will investigate and collect evidence, and each of us will have the right to speak, and we will listen to your opinions, okay?

No way! We are now making our voice clear, the old secretary is wronged, please release him immediately, and we can't let the good people suffer unjustly!

The crowd began to shout, please release the people immediately, and the good people must not be wronged!

The noise alarmed Lao Balu, who came from the house, followed by two militiamen. Be quiet, everyone, be quiet, and listen to me. First of all, thank you for interceding for me, what Team Leader Xu said just now is very clear, the organizing committee did not convict me, just a routine review, this is a very normal thing, our party has gone through so many years of tortuous struggle, this way, isn't it all like this? Our consistent policy is not to wronged a good person, nor to let go of a bad person! The eyes of our party and the people are clear, we used to figure it out, why can't we figure it out today? This is also different! The current struggle is very complicated, and from time to time there are people who deliberately instigate and create chaos. It is a vicious incident deliberately created by people with ulterior motives, I hope that this can arouse our vigilance and attention, and at the same time, I also hope that everyone can report and expose those who deliberately incite saboteurs in a timely manner, so that our work can be carried out smoothly! I'm willing to be the first reviewer, and things will come to a head, so please go back!

Lao Balu's words were reasonable and touched everyone present.

Old secretary, you have to take care of yourself! Everyone shouted loudly as they left.

Lao Balu waved his hand to everyone, thank you!

At this time, Team Leader Xu was very apprehensive in his heart. The cadres have opinions and the masses have voices, but is it really their own fault? I've already reported back to the organization, what can I do?

When I went back to the conference room, Lao Balu said to Team Leader Xu, I have something to say, I will reiterate my position again, before the organization is officially qualified, I think I have the right to participate in normal organizational activities and all freedoms, and I must be given a certain right to freedom, which is different from the difference between "supervision and detention and trial", the only difference is that I must be on call, I hope that Team Leader Xu can seriously consider my requirements.

Team Leader Xu thought for a while and said, okay, I made the decision, and this is also a special behavior that is allowed under special circumstances, I hope you can understand. Let's do this, let's go to the conference room, go to the conference room, everyone votes by a show of hands, the minority obeys the majority, and acts according to the convention, do you have no opinion?!

Lao Balu said, okay, I agree, I have no opinion.

Everyone came to the conference room together, and after taking their seats, Team Leader Xu proposed to vote by a show of hands on the proposal put forward by Lao Balu. What made Team Leader Xu different was that everyone raised their hands in unison!

Well, since everyone agrees, then I don't have an opinion, the old secretary can participate in all the activities of the party organization. Team Leader Xu expressed his attitude in the last place.

Lao Balu sat in his original position, loaded a bag of cigarettes, lit it, and took a deep breath.

Okay, let's get to the meeting. Just now, we have all heard the latest instructions from the leaders, asking us to organize mass committees and have the masses report and expose those who are seriously suspected of committing misdeeds. I hope that all of you will go deep among the masses, conscientiously organize and publicize well, and accomplish this task well. In the organization work, the director of the organization will go down to deal with the matter, and every village and town must elect a committee to conscientiously shoulder its responsibilities so that the masses can confide in their sufferings, have reasons and places to speak, find people who have been wronged, and report situations in a timely manner. Then there is responsible for publicity

The director of the work, the militia members must do a good job in this propaganda work, and they must do a solid job!

See if you have anything else to add? Team Leader Xu said after the most reluctance.

Everyone took notes, clarified the tasks, and said that there was nothing to add.

Team Leader Xu looked at Lao Balu, meaning, do you have anything to add?

Lao Balu said, can I go home?

Team Leader Xu thought about it, looked at everyone again, and everyone looked at him. Yes, but there must be a militia to follow, and you have to be on call. Team Leader Xu made a decision after the most reluctance.

The old Balu said, okay, I will do it.
