Chapter 1224: Fierce Fight! Master & Apprentice 50 (Medium)
8:36 a.m
Leon carried a box of peeled corn with great difficulty, and walked from the greenhouse to the truck, after he put down his things, he couldn't move anymore, he kept panting, the air in front of him seemed to be shaking, and the heat made him almost collapse.
It was Ang's first month in prison, but he still couldn't get used to such heavy physical labor, and moving corn was an easier job, at least much better than digging potatoes.
"Can I rest for a few minutes?"
Li Ang looked at a person from 11 subjects and asked, the other party nodded, and after saying thank you, Li Ang sat down.
The sentence of 11 years and 3 months seems to be a bit long, Li Ang is only more than 12 years old, and he has calculated that if he is released from prison, he will be in his 20s.
From time to time, Leon would wonder if what he had done that night was inappropriate, but when he thought of his parents, he felt that it was nothing, full of happy memories from school, which were things that Leon could recall and make himself happy when he was bored.
Because of Leon's young age, Section 11 arranged a solitary cell for him and gave him some study materials.
The people of Section 11 also said that as long as Li Ang behaved better, he could be transferred to the dormitory of Section 12, where they were all labor punishments, and given his age, his sentence could be commuted.
"Kid, why the hell are you doing those things, I heard that you are a student of that Junjie school in the upper class."
Leon smiled and shook his head.
"For the money."
Someone will always ask Li Ang this question, and Li Ang will always give the most practical answer, and the clerk next to him sighed helplessly.
"When you go out, don't you try to get into the department?"
Li Ang was a little surprised, and the clerk squatted over and continued.
"The Clerk's Division is relatively fair at present, even if you have a criminal record, as long as you can pass the exam, you can become a clerk of the Clerk's Section."
Leon tilted his head and laughed, but quickly shook his head.
"I actually hate you guys in black uniforms."
For the future, Li Ang no longer thinks about it, and the clerk next to him smiled.
"It's almost, hurry up and get to work, or you may run out of food today."
Leon got up and continued to run in, quietly watching a man with an only son breaking corn, Hydra, who had often seen about him on some television shows, and that some of their speculative classes would discuss Hydra's case.
For a while, Leon thought of Nia again, because Nia always spoke amazingly, she said that Hydra was basically innocent, but he was too weak to subdue those drunks with his bare hands, so it led to a series of tragedies.
It's just that what impressed Leon the most was that Niya once said that because there were many people who labeled him, he became a criminal.
Leon also knew that this was probably Nia's deepest feeling, because she had already been labeled by people in her family circle.
Because Leon is a light offender and lives in an independent cell, he and Hydra are on the first floor, Leon has known many prisoners on the same floor in just one month, and will go to their cell to play when he is fine, Hydra is different, he is stuffed in his cell all day long, and he doesn't talk to anyone, everyone says that this guy's psychology has become very dark, and he feels very mad, Leon also felt so at first, looking at Hydra so closely, he always feels shuddering.
"Hydra, you should be able to get straight into the business when you get out, right?"
Hydra smiled and nodded, but the smile made Leon a little uncomfortable, and Hydra stood up and walked slowly to Leon's side.
"Kid, you're not supposed to be a criminal, but why are you here?"
Leon panicked, and Hydra pressed a finger to Leon's forehead.
"Your eyes tell me that you are not guilty, you are different from everyone else here, are you guilty of helping people bear some crimes?"
Leon smiled, turned around and continued to do it, Hydra next to him still looking at him.
"Which department are you going to?"
Leon asked, because he had already heard that it was rumored in the prison that once Hydra was released from prison, he would be able to become a Level 3 officer, and a bright future awaited him.
Hydra has been in prison for more than 13 years, and he has more than 16 years to go, and the city should be relatively good by then.
Hydra smiled and went back to breaking the corn, and after glancing at Leon again, he stopped talking.
A while ago, his father came to see him, and Li Ang directly told his father that he was fine, so that they didn't have to worry, and his father also said that the problem of the winery had been dealt with properly, and now everything was normal in the winery, and he would run the winery well, and when Li Ang went out, at least he would rely on it.
Leon didn't plan to think about what he would do after he went out for a short time, he just wanted to get used to everything here quickly and then get fit.
9:37 a.m
As the minutes passed, someone photographed a large number of 10-section take-off and landing planes falling in some places in the factory area, and it seemed that there should be something wrong with the entire line of the factory.
Anxiety and uneasiness were written on the faces of most people, many of whom were completely blocked in some of the areas near the factory area, and everyone could only continue to endure and wait, Locke would issue a speech every hour, saying that everyone should not worry, the factory will definitely be able to start work today.
At this time, there were some remarks on the Internet, today is April Fool's Day, and the reason why it was chosen today is because of April Fool's Day, if work can be started, there will be no need to conduct so many tests, there must be something wrong, and Congress is still delaying.
A large number of media reporters had already been stationed in the area near the factory area a few days earlier.
This construction, which is related to the fate of the whole city, has already made the city miserable, and now I am afraid that only a slight sound is enough to stimulate the nerves of most people in the city, and everyone is about to lose it.
Mass demonstrators have already appeared near some of the bureau's facilities, shouting for Congress to reveal the truth about what is causing the factory to not be able to operate at this time.
The cries are getting louder and louder, and the voices of discontent are growing stronger in all parts of the city, especially in the eastern and western districts.
10:09 a.m
bang
With a violent sound of breaking the door, a man who was sitting in front of a light and shadow screen, constantly posting some information on the Internet, stood up in horror, he raised his hands, but was soon pressed to the ground and cuffed.
"Sir, now arrest you for publishing inflammatory falsehoods!"
The man looked at the people of Section 2 in horror, and he immediately defended himself, but soon the people of Section 2 began to search and collect evidence, and the man was taken directly to a room for interrogation.
However, at this time, in a restaurant on the middle level, someone has found out that some remarks on the Internet have been deleted directly, and many people have found that they can't publish it at all when they post comments, and according to the system prompts, there is a problem with the network.
"Congress is starting to block speech."
Someone shouted, and someone immediately chimed in.
"There must be something big wrong that prevents the factory from resuming work as scheduled."
For a while, there were chaotic voices, and many people seemed a little angry, because everyone had not had any jobs for a whole year, and some people who still had savings could only watch their money get less and less day by day, and had nothing to do except eat, sleep, and watch TV programs.
There was a lot of talk on the streets, and just after 11 o'clock, Locke issued another notice to delay the start of construction, which could take until 2 p.m., because there was a little trouble with the electricity test, but it could be solved quickly.
Expressions of distrust pervade much of the city.
At this time, Noah took a bunch of people and stood in a passage, which was a manual maintenance channel reserved for the maintenance of some lots, and the problem of the two pipelines had been solved, because during the installation, there was an error, which led to problems with the overall operation.
"It looks like I'm in trouble with the section chief, right now."
Li Guoguo carried a bunch of mechanical equipment on his back and followed behind Noah, and the two walked all the way, and soon came to the next place where the problem occurred, and Noah began to use the equipment to check it.
"Trouble is the fruit of trouble, but this is something that can't be helped, after all, the Hillman family suddenly withdrew its investment, and withdrew most of the technicians, but you can't accuse them of being unjust, and their family has shrunk a lot because of this construction project."
Li Guoguo pursed his lips and shook his head helplessly.
"It might be better if you started with a robot."
Noah smiled.
"The work that the robot can do, very little, although it can indeed improve efficiency, but the cost is too high, if it is damaged, the loss is too serious, Guoguo, now is not the time, act quickly! Everything had to be solved before the sun went out. ”
12:23 p.m
Discontent finally began to erupt on a large scale, and the streets were full of demonstrators, and Section 3 and Section 5 had set up a cordon in most places, constantly shouting and persuading most of the people.
Everyone's slogans have started to change, and they don't want to celebrate April Fool's Day today.
In the hall of the Congress, a clattering baby laugh sounded, and Wang Ying was holding Michelle and teasing her.
The rest of the people are there, and the six gods are there, and today they are here to present the specific details of the relevant matters to the councillors.
"Michelle, it's time for you to go to bed, hurry up and come to Mommy's place."
Freya said, Wang Ying put Michelle down, and although Michelle looked a little reluctant, she still stumbled over.
"Are you going to bring this child here in the future?"
The cyan god asked, and Freya smiled and nodded.
"I'm not going to let this kid in, I'm going to let her wait for me outside, she just needs to watch it all quietly."
The crimson god laughed.
"It's ironic that you set the date of your official establishment on April 1st."
Wu Qun smiled and nodded.
"After all, isn't this kind of thing like a councilor, from the past to the present? Sharp irony, always tinkering with power tricks, I think it's very appropriate, days like this. ”
There are frequent situations in the city now, this is no longer a matter of choice, but to try to appease the emotions of the people, before the 8 people came over, they had already explained everything to the people under their hands in advance, and there were no problems in the area where the 8 people were rooted now.
"It's not too early, you can go to the General Affairs Section for dinner, and we will specifically mark out the problems with these things you submit, and when the time comes, they will be returned directly to your respective hands through the parliamentary system, and you can discuss the details of the rules in detail."
As the purple god spoke, Freya picked up her daughter, and the other seven got up, and after all of them bowed, they turned and left.
In the empty hall of Congress, six guys laughed.
"It should look good here in the future."
Li Chu said, Tang Rao glared at him.
"I'm going to have to put up with these irritating voices every month, and I'd like to clean up for a few years."
Deguna said immediately.
"You're on duty in the first quarter, do a good job, Angel Paradise still needs some construction work, if you're okay in a few days, come and help me."
The other five guys looked at Deguna, and Gu Yi laughed.
"It's been Jean's guy who is dealing with it all the time, should we help him, especially when the factory is open."
Soon Rose shook her head.
"Help? How can it help? Forget it, what he does is his business, let's take advantage of this time as soon as possible and have a good rest. ”
Now the gods have handed over all the work to the city administrators, and they have not interfered in anything, only Jean is officially dealing with the documents that need to be stored in the general affairs department, and he is very busy every day.
"By the way, that girl from the Angus family is not going too far."
Tang Rao said, and the other five guys nodded one after another.
"Do you want to remind her?"
Gu Yi said, and soon Deguna laughed.
"That's not what we should do, she was taught by Jean, it's Jean's responsibility, no matter what she does in the future and what problems arise, it's none of our business."
Everyone was looking at the big thing that broke out in the city at the moment and made the whole city boil.
In the northeastern family cultivation area, a large number of reporters have poured in, starting with the relatives of the Angus family, the Sumerian family, all the nearby family plantations have been investigated, and one blood and sweat crushing incident after another has been exposed.
Many of the workers who worked on the family plantations were not paid for 10 years or even a few months, and some were even put on collars and forced to work day and night, under guard, not allowed to leave, and the monthly wages were pitiful, because most of them worked for 10 years without even getting paid.
Many people have physical problems to varying degrees, and when they are rescued, they even have psychological problems to varying degrees.
Many workers at work, their lives have been threatened to varying degrees, there are a large number of family members involved in the case, Alpha as soon as he investigated, everything began, she personally led people to rush over at 10 o'clock this morning, and now more than 2,000 people have been arrested.
The most shocking thing is that even people from their own families are involved in such a blood-sweating incident.
"Now there is bound to be a problem with the supply of tobacco in the city."
Witt said, and Li Chu laughed.
"That guy Gene probably won't even be able to buy cigarettes."
"Can you be serious?"
Tang Rao pressed her head.
Another place that has been almost marginalized, the problem is exposed, because the family has immunity, although I don't know who started it, but everyone began to follow suit, even if a worker is the cheapest, it costs 500 yuan a month, and many families usually have four or five hundred workers on their plantations.
In this way, if a medium-sized family has 500 workers, it will cost 250,000 yuan a month, plus food supply, at least 300,000 yuan a month, and 3.6 million yuan for 12 months in a year, so most families rely on deceptive contracts to trick most of the desperate people into working on the family plantation, and finally use contract provisions, physical threats, and even beatings to make them submit, and finally let the workers work on the plantation obediently.
"I will never allow this kind of behavior to continue, no matter who it is, as long as anyone is involved in this case, I will find him out without leaving anyone behind."
At this time, there was a brief interview, and the six guys looked at the scene with some helplessness.
"In any case, how many people are now temporarily turning their attention away."
Li Chu said, and Deguna laughed.
"That kid Xue Wang is really smart, and most of the reports now focus on the issue of family cultivation in the northeast."
12:51 p.m
Alpha quietly walked into the first floor of a mansion, which was used for banquets on weekdays, and was surrounded by the plantation of the Alpha family.
The people in the room were all pale, and they were all members of the Angus family.
"Miss........"
An old man with a solemn face ran over, and Alpha glanced back at the 5th section personnel behind him and closed the door.
"Why do you do this?"
Everyone in the house knows Alpha, many of them have known each other since they were children, they are the heads of the Angus family farm, Alpha has also been here with his parents to play, and I have the impression that it was still very good here in the past, but Alpha doesn't know when it started.
No one in the room answered, Alpha took out a cigarette, looked at the cigarette in his hand, put it in his mouth, lit it and exhaled a puff of smoke.
"Did it start with a full shift to tobacco sales?"
There are more than 800 workers on the Angus family's plantation, many of whom were bought by other families, most of them are black households, they have no identification at all, many of them are illiterate, they don't even know where they came from, they are like animals, they sleep in a cold underground hall.
bang
Alpha's hand slammed into the door frame next to him, and the door frame instantly cracked.
"I'm asking you, when did it start?"
The most angry for Alpha were some of the children, some of whom had worked here for seven or eight years, and some of whom had even been abandoned by their parents, who had come here from the orphanage when they were sensible.
"Who's going to answer me?"
"Miss, the lord and the lady don't know, we ........"
Alpha walked over slowly, dragging a young man directly into the air.
"Don't know? Are you fools to me? ”
Alpha tilted his head slightly, turned around, and kicked the door open.
"Arrest everyone here and go straight to the crime investigation!"
In an instant, many councillors outside ran over, and Jill walked in directly, grabbed the emotional alpha, and directly dragged her aside.
"What do you want to do? Now you should know about your family's situation. ”
Alpha shoved Jill away, and a bunch of female councillors ran over.
"President, you can't do this, we'll take care of these things, just ......."
"Processing? How to deal with it? ”
Jill's face turned pale, he knew that this matter was a foregone conclusion the moment Alpha knew about it.
"Don't you hear me?"
Alpha roared angrily, and everyone was stunned for a while, and many of the staff members of the 5th section were even more entangled at this time, and no one moved, because everyone felt that there was no need to do this.
"If you don't do it, I'll come by myself, and all of you will ....... tomorrow because you disobey the orders of your boss."
syllable
Jill slapped his hands on Alpha's cheeks.
"We'll do it, but then the Angus family is afraid that it will encounter a bigger storm, have you thought about the result Alpha, this is your home, the people in the house are your family, and the whole family plantation is like this, you ....... Remember what the principal told us before? Justice has a price. ”
Alpha turned around and pulled out the phone.
"Action!"
Jill pressed the brim of his hat and led the people into the mansion.
"What the hell have you been doing all these years!"
Alpha appeared calm, and his mother on the phone didn't say anything.
"Things aren't as rosy as you think, but they're not as bad as you think Alpha, the plantation thing, we may feel a little bit about it, but ......."
"Please come to the headquarters of Section 5 and assist in the investigation!"
Alpha hung up the phone and crouched on the ground, and there was a noise in the mansion, and a large number of reporters were reporting on it.
Only a small number of families did not participate, but they were silent about the affairs of the plantation, and the resale of slaves on the plantation was very common, and even the children born to many slaves would become slaves.
The cruel and bloody truth, right in front of Alpha's eyes, she didn't know what to do, and at the moment she made up her mind, she knew very well what the outcome would be, until now, no god had called her, including Jean.
Only Locke kept calling, but Alpha didn't answer.
At this time, a take-off and landing plane quickly came this way, and as soon as Alpha raised his head, he saw that Zijuan had already come over with a large number of personnel from the 3rd Division, directly blocking all roads on the periphery of the Angus family's plantation, and no reporters were allowed to take pictures.
The take-off and landing plane slowly landed in front of the mansion, and Locke Jiahui ran out with an eager face, and the moment he saw Alpha, he looked at the handcuffed people in the mansion, and the slaves who were being treated by 4 departments on the side.
"Are you satisfied?"
Locke sighed helplessly and sat down beside Alpha.
"What satisfaction!"
Locke snorted.
"This incident should have a big impact, because many people never thought that this kind of thing would happen on this family plantation, on the edge of the northeast of the city, and the people here are silent about everything here."
Alpha sat on the ground weakly, his hand trembling slightly, and Locke Jiahui grabbed her and patted her comfortingly.
"You did the right thing, I don't want to blame or stop your alpha, I just want to tell you as an elder that there are many places in the city that don't shine light, and if you uproot them, the darkness that has been deposited below will come out in one go."
Alpha hummed, she was already crying at this time, and it was the first time she felt so uncomfortable, because her family would be involved in this kind of thing, and Alpha couldn't accept it in her heart.
"Can you leave some of the follow-up matters to me?"
Alpha held her cheek in her hand, the cigarette in her mouth trembled, and she nodded slightly.
Locke sighed, stood up, stood in front of Alpha, and quietly watched the 5 section members who came in and out.
1:11 p.m
Niya looked at her parents with some confusion, explaining something to the people at home, their expressions looked full of bitterness and helplessness, and their eyes were full of sadness.
"Mom, is something wrong?"
Violet smiled and leaned in front of Nya and hugged her quietly.
"It's okay Niya, you have to be obedient at home, remember to finish your homework, your dad and I may not be back for a while."
No matter how much Nia asked why, her parents didn't tell her anything, but Nia was not stupid, as she could already see a large number of landing planes landing on the lawns of other families.
At this time, a 1st section of the take-off and landing plane fell, Duan Kong and the secretary Julia walked out, and the two bowed to the Angus couple as soon as they came over.
"What the hell is going on?"
Duan Kong looked at Niya who followed behind him with a solemn face, and at this time, outside the family, on the lawn, Freya ran over quickly.
"What are you going to do!"
Julia walked over and put her head to Freya's ear, and after saying a word, Freya's face became solemn.
"I've got to tell Alpha ........ do that."
"What's wrong with my sister?"
Nia ran over, and she was momentarily emotional.
"What's wrong with my sister?"
With a roar, Violet sighed.
"Because we are involved in the crime, we now need to go to the headquarters of Section 5 to assist in the investigation!"
Nya's eyes widened and she burst into tears.
"My sister....... Why did my sister arrest you, why! ”
