Chapter 255: Dilemma

Two days later, the city of Haizhou really exploded.

Someone found a large number of dead fish on the surface of the Haizhou River! For Haizhou people, this is tantamount to dropping a blockbuster*!

Because everyone knows that Haizhou River is the mother river of Haizhou people.

Nearly 10 million people get their drinking water here.

So, one spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and soon spread all over the streets and alleys of the city. People started talking, "What's going on?" Why did so many fish die? ”

Someone said: "This must have something to do with the wastewater discharged by Dingxin Company." ”

Someone worriedly asked, "Can my tap water still work?" I still have to rely on it to wash and cook. ”

Someone replied: "This is still worth asking, the fish are dead, and people must not be able to drink it!" ”

Someone immediately chimed in: "Yes, yes, our water plant is built on the edge of the Haizhou River, and the water pumped from this river must also be polluted." ”

Someone looked puzzled: "What should I do then?" I can't live without water! ”

Someone smiled and said, "What else can I do, go to the supermarket and buy water!" ”

"Yes, yes, buy a few buckets of water to store first, and there will be no more when it's late!" As a result, people flocked to supermarkets and began to rush to buy drinking water......

At this moment, the EPA's phone has been blown up.

After Wang Shijie got the news, he immediately rushed to the scene with people. Standing on the shore and watching a patch of white dead fish float on the wide river.

These fish are belly up, which makes them particularly dazzling in the winter sun.

Wang Shijie couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

According to the response of the people at the monitoring station, the area where the dead fish appeared was the wastewater discharge inlet of the Dingxin company to the Haizhou River a few days ago.

In this way, it is very likely that the dead fish are related to the wastewater discharged by Dingxin.

In order to verify his guess, Wang Shijie immediately ordered someone to go to the river to catch a few dead fish. A number of water samples were then taken at the outlet.

He decided to take it back to the EPA for inspection right away.

Soon, the inspection report came out. There is indeed a large amount of industrial wastewater in the bodies of these dead fish. Moreover, the harmful components of this wastewater are exactly the same as the wastewater discharged by Tingxin two days ago.

However, the fish did not die in the Hanoi of Haizhou.

The reason is that the concentration of wastewater inhaled by these fish is much higher than that of the samples extracted from the Haizhou River.

Therefore, they preliminarily determined that the fish were suffocated to death before being thrown into the Haizhou River.

After reading this report, Wang Shijie's heart couldn't help sinking. He knew that this was another conspiracy against Dingxin.

However, he did not dare to speak out.

Two days ago, when he went to Dingxin Company to investigate, he already knew the results.

It's just that the mastermind behind the scenes has not been found for a while, so Dingxin Company has temporarily carried the black pot. His original intention was to give himself a little time so that he could work with the public security department to find out who was behind the scenes.

Unexpectedly, the other party pressed forward step by step, leaving him with no way out.

It seems that this pot can only be carried by Dingxin Company all the time. Because, the dead fish incident has plunged the whole city into a panic.

If the results of the investigation into the wastewater incident are not released soon, he, the head of the environmental protection bureau, may have to step down.

In the morning, he received a call from Mayor Huang and Secretary Zhang, asking him to investigate the matter as soon as possible and give justice to the people of Haizhou.

Therefore, he could not drag on any longer.

However, it is not so easy to dump this pot on Dingxin Company.

First, the evidence is insufficient.

Li Zhejun and Du Xiaowei will definitely not agree.

Especially that Du Xiaowei, he saw it with his own eyes that day. This girl doesn't know how thick the sky is. If the responsibility is forcibly pushed to Dingxin Company, she will definitely not give up easily!

In case this matter is stabbed in front of the media, he will also not be able to eat and walk around.

And what made him even more embarrassed was that. When I called the Dacheng police station yesterday and asked them to assist the Environmental Protection Bureau in the investigation, I learned that Dingxin had already reported the case.

According to the information they provided, the conclusions are fully consistent with his previous judgments.

That is, they also believe that it is a premeditated case. The goal is to bring down the new company. Of course, personal revenge is not excluded.

As for who did it, they are still investigating.

……

Therefore, if you want to blame the new company, this road has become impossible. Unless the people at the police station collude with themselves to conceal the truth of the matter.

However, this is unlikely.

I was in a dilemma, and the phone on the desk rang. It was Vice Mayor Zhou who called and asked him what the results of the investigation were.

He is the deputy head of the city's environmental protection inspection team, and it is normal for him to call to ask questions.

Wang Shijie said hesitantly: "It's still under investigation......"

Zhou Junbo was furious when he heard this: "What, it's still under investigation?" What have you been doing these days? The people of Haizhou have no water to drink, and you haven't even found the company that caused the accident? ”

Wang Shijie hurriedly explained: "This ...... We preliminarily believe that Dingxin Company did it...... However, there is a different opinion from the Ayutthaya police station......"

He reacted quickly and kicked the ball to the police station.

Zhou Junbo asked, "What are their opinions?" ”

Wang Shijie said: "They don't think it's what Tingxin did. ”

Zhou Junbo knew that he was pushing the ball, so he asked, "What about the dead fish?" Is there a result? ”

Wang Shijie said: "There is ...... However, the report sent by the testing unit said that the dead fish incident had nothing to do with Dingxin Company...... "Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of slapping the table on the phone. Then, there was a thunderclap: "Bastard! It has nothing to do with Dingxin Company, so who does it have to do with it? ”

Wang Shijie didn't expect Vice Mayor Zhou to be so angry, and he didn't know what to say for a while: "This ......"

"What is this? You have to deal with this matter as soon as possible! The central inspection team is about to come to Haizhou, and if something like this happens, no one can afford to do it at that time! ”

Wang Shijie seemed to understand the meaning of Zhou Junbo's words.

Indeed, this matter has already caused a lot of trouble and has aroused widespread concern in society. If it continues to delay, it will only provoke greater public anger. Therefore, he had to come up with a disposition as soon as possible.

So, he nodded again and again and said, "Yes, yes, I will definitely deal with this matter as soon as possible......

Zhou Junbo said: "Not as soon as possible, but immediately...... You immediately hold a press conference to announce the results of your investigation...... In addition, Dingxin Company's private discharge of wastewater has brought a great threat to the drinking water safety of the people of Haizhou. No matter what kind of business it is, it must be shut down immediately! ”

When Wang Shijie heard this, he asked with some concern: "What about the police station?" ”

Zhou Junbo said: "This, you don't have to think about it, I will greet them!" ”

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Wang Shijie put down the phone, but his heart was even heavier.

Although, he had also said to the people of Dingxin Company before that he would close down their factory. However, that's just official and angry talk.

Now, when it comes to implementation, he is a little hesitant.

After all, Ting Sun is not a small business. What should he do if the blame comes down?

At that time, Vice Mayor Zhou will definitely not speak for him.

What's more, he is only the deputy leader of the inspection team, and his decision is not necessarily what the city means. What's more, the evidence in his hands is insufficient. In case the new company sues the court, he still can't eat and walks around.

Thinking so, he decided to go to Mayor Huang to find out his tone.

Hearing that the Environmental Protection Bureau was going to shut down Dingxin, Mayor Huang couldn't help but be surprised: "What, they discharged the wastewater?" Are you sure? ”

In his opinion, this is impossible.

A year ago, he also went to Dingxin Company to inspect. At the time, they were preparing to build a wastewater treatment plant at the back of the plant, and he attended the groundbreaking ceremony.

Now, it is said that they discharged the wastewater, which made him very puzzled.

"They have their own treatment plant, so why are they secretly discharging wastewater?" He asked with a frown.

"I don't know, but the wastewater is coming from them!" As he spoke, he took out a few photos taken at the scene.

Mayor Huang looked at it with a solemn expression.

"You should be cautious about this...... Is the police involved in the investigation? Mayor Huang stood up and paced a few steps around the office with his hands behind his back.

Wang Shijie said: "The Dacheng police station is investigating ......"

Mayor Huang asked again: "What happened to the dead fish?" ”

Wang Shijie thought for a while and said: "The inspection report has come out, and it is indeed related to the wastewater of Dingxin Company!" ”

He had to lie.

If it has nothing to do with Dingxin Company. Then, Mayor Huang will definitely want him to continue the investigation. At that time, he will be in a dilemma between Vice Mayor Zhou and Mayor Huang.

Mayor Huang continued to pace around the office, his two thick eyebrows tightly locked together.

"The matter of shutting down the new company will be postponed for the time being...... Wait for the results of the investigation by the public security department to come back before making a decision. As he spoke, two deep eyes stared at Wang Shijie like torches: "Do these dead fish have any impact on the water source of the water plant?" ”

Wang Shijie said: "No, the water plant is located in the upper reaches of the Haizhou River, a few kilometers away from the outlet......

Mayor Huang instructed: "Then you will hold a press conference immediately." Tell everyone that the dead fish incident has no impact on Haizhou's drinking water. ”

Wang Shijie nodded diligently: "Okay, I'll do it right away!" ”

However, he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he asked in a low voice: "What should I say about the waste water and dead fish?" ”

Mayor Huang flicked his fingers: "Do you still need me to teach this?" It is said that it is still investigating, and it will be announced to the public after the results are out. ”

Wang Shijie wanted to say something, but Mayor Huang waved his hand impatiently: "You go and do it immediately, I still have an important meeting to start!" ”

Wang Shijie knew that this was an eviction order, so he had to withdraw from Mayor Huang's office.

Leaving Mayor Huang's office, Wang Shijie began to be in a dilemma.

Vice Mayor Zhou and Mayor Huang asked him to hold a press conference. However, the content of the press conference was quite the opposite.

One asked him to immediately announce the results of the investigation into the private discharge of wastewater by Dingxin Company, and immediately shut down Dingxin Company; The other said that the investigation was still ongoing and that no action could be taken against the company.

Wang Shijie's head is big.

Now, he doesn't know who to listen to. Because these two people are their top bosses.

It's not good to offend anyone.

He regretted that he shouldn't have come to ask Mayor Huang.
