Chapter 2: Jiang Ming's Vision
I followed Jiang Ming to a small restaurant in the middle of nowhere. Such a fly restaurant is very familiar to us young people, and the consumption is cheap.
We sat across from each other, and he ordered two bowls of brisket noodles. This beef brisket powder is very common in western Guangdong, and it is also a favorite food of southerners. You can find this in almost every breakfast shop or tavern, and I don't know where you get so much brisket.
With the beef brisket powder, Jiang Ming ate it with a loud noise, and finished it in two clicks. In the end, he even drank the soup, wiped his mouth, and said with red eyes:
"My cousin, who was on your class, also died in that accident. My aunt spent 20,000 yuan to get him into the steel factory, but after a few months, even the 20,000 yuan has not been earned, and the people are gone, what is the use of the compensation of 200,000 yuan. ”
After Jiang Ming finished speaking, he watched me eat beef brisket noodles, and I felt uncomfortable. This is a rice noodle, and there is a person on the other side who stares at it without blinking, which is really difficult to swallow. As soon as I put my chopsticks down, I stopped eating.
"That's why you're looking for me? I don't know anything, I can't help you. "After that, I found a tissue to wipe my mouth.
"How much do you know?" Jiang Ming asked.
"What do you know how much? I stayed at the door of the leader's office for a week, and no one told me the truth. They all avoided talking about it, and now that the issue of compensation has been resolved, no one is making trouble. If this is an ordinary production accident, it should be spread out.
"By the way, didn't you install a camera at the door of the sintering workshop? What do you see? I asked.
Jiang Ming was silent. Maybe he really knows something, should I tell him about the white shadow? Should I trust him? We were silent.
After sitting for a long time, he said, "Come with me." I got up and paid, and when I saw him far away, I followed him.
Came to an old neighborhood, there was a computer shop on the side of the road. He went in and said hello to the boss and walked to the back, and I followed him upstairs.
It is a small room on the second floor, which is piled up with various office supplies. It's all old, and many of them have been dismantled and thrown on the ground like this.
When he came to a computer desk near the window, he pulled out a worn-out computer swivel chair, sat down, and then turned it on.
I looked around, couldn't find a second chair, and just stood there, looking at the little room. There was a six-shelf bed at the entrance, with mosquito nets hanging from the bottom bed and packing cartons piled up on the upper bed. The floor is full of computer consoles, monitors, printers, and so on.
That's when his computer goes to the desktop and the subwoofer gives out a wi
The sound of dows2000 entering the desktop. Jiang Ming tapped on the keyboard for a while, and called up a video, and when I saw it, it was the sintering workshop, and in the distance was me and the squad elder Deng.
There was no sound in the video, and Lao Deng was talking to me about something, and then turned around the duty room. What workers in an overhaul workshop are doing farther away is too far away to be obscure.
Then I went with me and went to the squad leader. When the head of the squad was on his sleeves, a blurry white shadow in the distance overlapped with the maintenance worker. Then the squad leader pushed me, and I ran like crazy. The squad leader ran behind, and the camera shook for a while, and the fire covered the sky, and all that was left was snowflakes.
I saw the squad leader again in the video, and my nose was a little sour. It was the squad leader who saved my life, and he followed me all the time. He jumped up and hugged me when it burst out, and we fell down together, and then he caught fire.
Jiang Ming saw that my eyes were red, so he rewind the video. Zoom in and see the white shadow and the maintenance worker. I watched it many times before it turned off. Jiang Ming said his analysis. He said that this white shadow would not be on the worker's body for no reason, there must be a reason.
The official version is that the maintenance workers entered the sintering workshop without taking a shift and carried out the gas cut-off operation. In the case that the electric butterfly valve is not confirmed to be closed and the pipeline is not purged, the operation button of the electric glasses valve is directly activated to carry out the shut-off operation. During the shut-off operation of the electric glasses valve, a gas leak occurred, followed by an explosion and combustion, resulting in mass deaths and injuries.
Jiang Ming analyzed that at least three people in the maintenance workshop were overhauled together. If you come to overhaul, you will definitely notify the sintering workshop, and now a worker is coming, which is very abnormal.
Moreover, the worker was suddenly 20 centimeters shorter, indicating that the ground had sunken, which caused the gas pipe to fall off. At that location is the electric glasses valve, and the leaking coke oven gas explodes and burns when it encounters a mechanical spark generated during the operation of the valve.
Who is this worker? Why do you violate the operating procedures of the mechanic position? Why do you do it half an hour earlier? Where is the guardian? Why does the ground sink? The official statement that the illegal operation caused a large amount of gas leakage in the pressurized pipeline is only a superficial phenomenon.
After listening to his series of questions, I was also confused. Why? Jiang Ming said that the other thing is that the insurance compensation this time is very timely, and it is according to the maximum compensation.
That insurance company, why is it so aggressive? This time, more than a dozen people died and more than 30 people were injured, and all the one-time compensation was in place, and not a single family member made trouble.
The steel mill also gave compensation separately, and it can be said that the family members can't make trouble this time. And none of the local or foreign media reported it. This explosion was like setting off a big firecracker.
Looking at Jiang Ming's thin face and his scum-pulling beard, this beard looks very much like that Gu Tianle when he shaves it. But obviously he hasn't shaved for a few days, this man is actually quite handsome, although it is not a national face.
Wearing those nearsighted glasses, he has a strong cultural atmosphere, but now he is doing things like an old detective who has peeled back the cocoon.
In the end, Jiang Ming said that it is best to make an appointment, and it is best to go there and find it when the moon is dark and the wind is high. I nodded, left each other's contact information and dispersed.
Half a month later, I received a text message on my mobile phone and made an appointment with a time and place. In the evening, I found a black sweatshirt, black jeans, and black running shoes, touched a flashlight at home and set off.
The steel mill is next to a small hill with a white tower on the hill, and this tower is called the Venta. Jiang Ming just asked me to meet there.
On the side of the road is the main entrance of the steel mill, which is manned at night. There are also patrols made up of members of the Security and Security Section, which are mainly used to prevent thieves from entering and stealing through the walls.
The sintering workshop has now been abandoned, and the inspection team sent by the province can clean up the site and start construction again.
When I got to Venta, I saw a dark figure sitting there smoking on the sheltered side. I turned off the flashlight and walked over slowly. Jiang Ming said, here? I hummed, and he got up and left.
Damn, I just came, I'm so tired from climbing the mountain, and I don't let people take a break. I muttered to myself and followed him. He turned on his flashlight, wrapped the head of the flashlight in a red plastic bag, and only had a faint light, and he could barely see the path clearly.
When he came to the wall, he took out a square mobile phone, and I looked at it, what kind of mobile phone is this? The upper half of the phone is the screen, and the lower half has more than thirty buttons. How many keys can this phone have?
Jiang Ming muttered while staring at the mobile phone with both hands, haven't you seen it? This is a BlackBerry. Uh....., and this brand? He muttered again, American-made.
After operating for a while, he said it was done. I found a one-meter-long thick wooden stick nearby, leaned against the fence, and then climbed up on the top.
I followed him and climbed over the fence to see that it was a stockyard. After jumping, both feet are covered with soft clay powder. Not far from entering, there is the sintering workshop.
Looking around, there was no patrol, and then he walked over with a cat.
It's autumn evening, and it's a little cool at night. Walking into the ruins, my heart is a little hairy. Thinking of the tragic death of more than a dozen workers and more than 30 injuries, I made up my mind. Only finding out the truth and giving them an explanation is what those of us who are alive should do.
Jiang Ming had his own set of methods, and I followed him to the place where the initial explosion occurred, which was a large crater two meters deep and more than ten square meters.
He took out a pair of tweezers and picked around the center of the explosion, and in a moment he found a dozen fragments, then packed them in a plastic bag and said, go.
Follow him out the same way and go back to the computer store again. At the back door of the store, he took out the key and opened the door, and went up to the small room on the second floor.
Turn on the computer, operate the camera with the gimbal on a monitoring software, and the camera slowly shines to the place where we turned in. It turned out that he was using his mobile phone to operate the camera by the fence to change directions. This technique is really good.
Although I can also use a computer, the general typing is also quite fast, and I can only say that I can use this computer technology. And he is proficient, and he is unique, otherwise how would he be an electrician in the technical department.
I admire this handsome guy very much. See if there are any other beautiful cousins or something, and introduce him to one. Hehe, doing business, where did I think of this?
Jiang Ming spread the pieces in the plastic bag on the table, took a magnifying glass and illuminated it with a flashlight, and looked at them one by one. I also looked closer, and he pushed me away, and after pushing a few times, I stopped looking, and he would say the answer anyway.
I see a big CRT monitor on the floor, this one has to be twenty inches, right? And then I sat on it. After a while, he put the pieces away, thought about it, and spread it out again. After looking at it for a while, I finally put it away, then put it in a plastic bag and threw it in a corner.
He opened a web page, searched for something, and a web page full of antiques popped up. I muttered in my mouth while watching, and I couldn't wait any longer, yawned again and again, turned my head to look at the bed, and then looked at Jiang Ming.
At this time, he whispered, you go back first, and he will tell you when he finds something. I saw him staring at the computer screen and didn't reply, so I went downstairs and went back.
The next day, Jiang Ming asked me to meet at the small shop, and he was already eating beef brisket noodles. I ordered one too, and I'm not welcome this time. At the dinner table, he gave me the results of the analysis and said:
"There's a big secret here, a big secret, and we may have stepped into a game with one foot."
I looked at him in amazement, what can I do? He wiped his mouth and continued:
"There should be an ancient tomb under the pipeline, and the leader of the steel plant must be an insider, as well as the general manager of the insurance company surnamed Qiu, I have seen him come to the leader, with a bodyguard by his side, holding a computer!"
Jiang Ming was silent after speaking, and I was confused, the leader he said, I know, it was Secretary Zhang. The general manager and director of the iron and steel plant are honorary leaders, and the real real power is Secretary Zhang. Many people know this.
As for the general manager Qiu he said, as well as the bodyguard, I haven't seen it, and I'm not a person who sits in the office, I am in the workshop every day, how can I see this person.
"And then?" I really don't know what to say, so I can only ask. Jiang Ming said, what then? No then!
I said, aren't we looking for the real culprit? That white shadow, what to do? Jiang Ming said, the white shadow may be the leader and General Manager Qiu's thing, and now I only know a rough idea, and I don't know what the truth is.
It's just that....... Jiang Ming was silent for a moment. I thought about it for a while before I said that if we continued to search, we might die a terrible death. The general manager of the insurance company of He'an doesn't seem to be an ordinary person.
There were so many dead and injured people this time, and according to the insurance company's system, it would be good for the family to get half of the money. This time, the result was based on the full maximum amount of compensation, and the purpose is unclear, that is, to silence the mouths of the family members and prevent them from making trouble.
And the factory also takes the initiative to compensate, generally speaking, the insurance company compensates, and the factory does not need to compensate, which is reasonable, what does this mean? Both the factory leaders and the insurance company wanted this matter to pass quickly.
Hearing this, I was also silent, such a complicated thing, what is it and what is it in the clouds? Seeing Jiang Ming get up to leave, I hurriedly paid and followed.
Coming to the riverside and finding a place to sit, Jiang Ming looked at the sunset on the river and fell into deep thought.
I don't know how he found these things. There seems to be a big conspiracy behind this, what to cover up with a dozen lives and more than thirty injuries?
We sat down until the dew rose in the evening, and then we parted. I'm not a public security detective, so I don't know anything about investigating cases.
Jiang Ming is two years older than me, and he looks a lot more mature and understands a lot, but he is also an electrician. We don't know how to check it out before we can give an explanation to the squad leader and co-workers.
