Chapter 130: Falling into the Well [Third Update]
The fat man narrowed his triangular eyes and sneered.
"Heh, it's good to recognize it, tell me what is the relationship between you?"
Zhou Heng raised his eyes to look at the fat man, his arm was already sore, and the rope was extremely uncomfortable in the flesh.
"Tricks? I don't know what the adults are referring to? The grass people didn't know how to answer. ”
The fat man's eyes were on fire, but this time he didn't have a seizure, and pointed at Liu Renli and said:
"Very good, pretend to be confused with this official, no problem, to put it another way, have you participated in the disaster relief in Qingping County?"
Zhou Heng nodded, "Yes, the grass people took the people of the Huichun Hall to close for eight days to carry out free clinics and medicines, treat patients, and control the spread of the epidemic. ”
A triumphant smile flashed on the fat man's face, and his eyes glanced at the man in charge of recording next to him, who worked hard to record all what Zhou Heng said.
"It's good to admit it, now I ask you, the victims you have treated, but they have the plague?"
This step-by-step questioning seems to be asking for his own confession, whether he is responsible for the treatment, whether the person who is being treated has the plague, and the questions are one ring after another, and he also gestures to the master to record.
Could it be that there is some conspiracy or trick in all this?
Just when Zhou Heng was slightly stunned, the fat man in the hall had already squinted his eyes and snorted, and the officials in the hall began to poke the water and fire sticks.
Zhou Heng looked up at the fat man and replied with a puzzled expression:
"There are all kinds of diseases among the victims, there are traumatic injuries, typhoid fever, and plague, but the plague is the most affected, and the adults are a little puzzled by this question, so they don't know how to answer for a while."
A light flashed in the fat man's eyes, "In other words, the vast majority of the patients you treat are plague patients, yes or no?" ”
Zhou Heng nodded and replied indifferently, "Yes." ”
"Then let me ask you, how many patients have you treated? How many people died? ”
Zhou Heng was stunned, he really knew this number, after all, he glanced at Qu Ziping when he counted it.
"A total of 2,234 people were quarantined and observed, 1,493 patients of all kinds were treated, and a total of 52 people died, and more than ninety percent of the patients were plaguers."
As soon as Zhou Heng said this, led by the fat man and the thin man, they all raised their heads and laughed, looking at Zhou Heng with an expression of looking at a fool.
"Are you really stupid when we are Zhizhou, and let you be so deceived? From ancient times to the present, the plague has been broken, and even if it is properly controlled, at least half of the victims have died. According to the figures you have reported, there are more than 20,000 people who have been resettled for disaster relief, but only more than 2,000 have developed the disease and have been basically cured in the end, and only more than 50 people have died, and among these more than 50 people, there are also falls and other causes of death. ”
The fat man's face was as jealous as hatred, staring at Zhou Heng and shouting:
"Deceiving Shangguan like this, falsely reporting and concealing the disaster, and privately unifying all kinds of figures, you are so bold, Zhou Heng, are you guilty?"
Zhou Heng was stunned, and only then did he understand the intention of this fat man, he felt that these data were fake, and Liu Renli had obviously reported the data, which aroused the suspicion of higher-level officials, so he had such a picture today.
No need to ask, this fat man must be Liu Mingshun, and interrogating Liu Renli was fruitless, so he brought someone to Qingping County to find someone Wang Liu Renli to pour dirty water on his body and sit on the matter.
Zhou Heng stared at the fat man, but at this moment, he didn't have the worry just now.
"The grass people don't know what crime they have committed, and every data is counted by the officials and the personnel of the disaster relief association, if you don't believe it, you can go to someone to verify."
Zhou Heng paused, raised his head slightly, looked at the tall and thin official, and continued:
"As for what the adults said, at least half of the plague deaths in the treatment of the plague depend on the method used, and if the traditional method of treatment is used, this is the natural result. The method used by us in Qingping County is mainly to control the isolation, and to separate the sick and healthy people for resettlement, which can effectively control the spread of plague, and of course, there are very detailed means used at the same time, so that the mortality rate can be controlled at this number, if you have any doubts, you can go to the resettlement area to investigate, every dead and sick person has a detailed record, which can be found in the yellow book. ”
Zhou Heng said this very quickly, and kept staring at the thin and tall man, he knew that although this person could not see any difference from the fat man in his official uniform, but from the two of them entering the door, he could already feel from the words just now that this person was the main person in charge of the investigation of this matter.
Sure enough, after Zhou Heng finished speaking, the fat man was annoyed and wanted to go crazy, so he reached out and grabbed a token and was about to throw it down.
Li Se said: "Be bold and ruthless, full of benevolence and morality, and use strong words here, I don't think you can tell the truth without punishment......"
Zhou Heng was startled, controlling his trembling legs, he knew that if he confessed at this moment, let alone Liu Renli, he and the Rejuvenation Hall were finished.
Just as the token was about to be taken off, the tall and thin man raised his hand to stop the fat man's movements.
The fat man hurriedly grabbed the token and looked at the tall and thin man with a smile.
"What does Ho-sama mean ......"
This Lord He waved his hand at the fat man and motioned for him to put away the token first.
"Don't use torture first, since it is said that the people in the city and the victims of the disaster know these numbers, and they all know the beginning and end of the disaster relief, then find someone to come and ask, Xu Baihu went to the nearby hospital and outside the city to find some witnesses, so as not to say that we abuse lynching."
Zhou Heng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, this is a high-sounding thing, it is easy to find someone to witness, the key depends on who to look for?
This Lord He, although he has not spoken, can feel that he is more cunning than this fat man, and it is not because of serving the public that he stopped the fat man like this, how to listen to this conversation and arrangement with a smell of conspiracy.
That Xu Baihu raised his eyes and glanced at Master He, clenched his fists and said yes, and went out with more than a dozen officials.
Zhou Heng's leg was already a little numb, but he didn't dare to move at this time, Yu Guang looked at Liu Renli, Liu Renli's injured leg was constantly trembling, obviously the leg injury was extremely painful, but he endured it.
What kind of punishment of the scum cave of the anti-Japanese heroes has only been seen in film and television works, such a fresh life was ravaged like this in front of Zhou Heng's eyes, and the shock was indescribable.
In less than a cup of tea, Xu Baihu brought people back, Zhou Heng didn't look back, squinted his eyes slightly, this is too fast.
It takes at least half an hour to ride around the city.
Oh, you want to find witnesses, investigate the case, and you run into it at the door when you go out, what kind of trick is this?
Needless to say, these people were arranged by the other party a long time ago, but who can be bewitched by these people in Qingping County?
You must know that all the merchants and people have just experienced such a famine, although the impact on the people in the city has been reduced to a minimum, but the price increase in half a month is still very amazing.
The city gate is locked, small merchants and hawkers can not carry out the circulation of materials, everyone has what to sell, some necessary materials for rice and noodles, at least doubled, pickles and meat are not known how many times.
For example, green vegetables and eggs have become a rarity, this thing has a price, and it is not seen in the city at all.
Even so, everyone who has never heard the people in the city complain about it, as always, still supports the disaster relief, has no objection to the lockdown and isolation, and actively participates in the recruitment of volunteers, even if there are still people who go to the county government to sign up.
Zhou Heng's eyes rolled, could it be that there were people among the squires who were dissatisfied?
This won't be, the reputation it should have is there, all the big families have given out materials, silver and heads, supported here, suppressed there, and no one believes it, and in the future, the monument of fame at the city gate will be engraved with their family, so the glory will be abandoned?
Zhou Heng kept thinking about all the possibilities in his mind, and at this moment, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps behind him, and he could feel that there were a lot of people coming.
Zhou Heng's heart trembled, and suddenly he thought of someone, could they really fall into the well?
At this moment, the fat man had already begun to speak.
"Who's in the hall?"
In the left position behind Zhou Heng, a slightly familiar voice sounded.
"Back to the adult's words, the grass people are Meng Xiaoyou, the shopkeeper of Shouhetang."
