Chapter 420: Words of Blood and Tears
Twelve hours ago, Shanghai at midnight was still as bright as day, and not a single area was plunged into darkness. The power supply system is running at full capacity, and maintenance personnel who have been urgently dispatched from all over the country to act as fire brigades are running around the city in an effort to maintain the city's power supply and transportation system.
Since it was a race against time, the evacuation work was naturally carried out day and night, so the whole city was brightly lit, and even several areas that had completed the evacuation work and emptied the population did not immediately turn off the lights and pull the gates.
It stands to reason that there is no need for lights without people, but the reality is more complicated.
As long as the population base goes up, there will always be a handful of incomprehensible guys, Shanghai City has a population of 24 million, and it would be strange to say that there are no weirdos. Two days after the evacuation work began, the investigators of the state security found that some self-made smart guys refused to withdraw from Shanghai because of their luck, and played hide and seek with the staff of the municipal evacuation office, bringing a large amount of dry food and drinking water, and sneaking to the evacuated area to hide.
No one can understand what the first freak who played "hide and seek" with the evacuation office thought, compared to the herd effect and imitation behavior is easy to understand, in less than three days, the power of hide and seek has grown rapidly, and a dedicated QQ group and forum have been established, while providing covert strategies, communicate with each other, share intelligence, make plans together, and vow to carry out hide and seek to the end.
In order to get these guys out and send them out of Shanghai, not only did the evacuation area set up a cordon, but also the patrol team composed of drones and public security officers patrolled from time to time.
With the timely response and full cooperation of many people, all the residents who tried to hide and stay were arrested, and what awaited them was not the severe punishment of the law, but a long journey of several hours or even a dozen or dozens of hours.
All the stubborn stranded people were put on the train to evacuate Shanghai, and some of them had the opportunity to leave Shanghai in the comfort of the cabin, but now all of them were crammed into the hard seats of the train, some of them without even seats.
Countless people burst into tears, picked up their phones, their only weapons, and then blazed on the government's egregious actions, with thousands of live posts and long posts on Weibo despering about their desperate situation after being "denied" of their personal freedom and civil rights, and accusing the government and the military of cruelty.
Because of the limited transportation capacity and evacuation time, the work of the evacuation office cannot be done everywhere, and the rich can send all their valuables to the logistics channel, and then sit comfortably in the first class, while the people with limited economic ability can only accept the arrangements of the government.
Many people in need were forced into train cars squeezed into canned meat compression, because tickets were hard to come by, and many had to stop at the end during this arduous and painful journey.
Although the scalpers have been completely wiped out, the preciousness of the tickets is still high, and it may not be appropriate for the government to take over comprehensive control, because no one can really level the table on this issue, and if real fairness and justice cannot be achieved, it will intensify the contradictions.
Therefore, tickets are really hard to find, even in the Spring Festival period when the traffic was not developed a few decades ago, even the folding seats of the sleeper car have to buy tickets, and the lower berth of the sleeper is also split into three "seats" to sell tickets.
Even so, every train was packed.
In the train carriages comparable to buses and subways during rush hour, the air is turbid, the workshop toilets are full of feces and urine that cannot be washed away, and there are always red lights of "someone" or "in use".
According to some flight attendants who did not want to be identified, they disposed of more vomit than excrement during the train, and even the temporary on-board cleaners hired by the Ministry of Railways couldn't help but vomit, even these senior cleaners who clean the public toilets all year round couldn't stand it, let alone the passengers.
Anyone who thinks they are the worst is very wrong. At the very least, they can get on the train, while some have to sit in trucks and containers, sent out in batches as if they were smuggled or trafficked.
The BBC (Commonwealth Broadcasting Corporation) commented on the voices they made: blood and tears.
Just when domestic netizens were indignant and ready to pick up the keyboard to support their compatriots in Shanghai, the Huaxia government made an unexpected response, deleting and banning all posts that exaggerated and maliciously spread rumors, and those who had a bad impact were held accountable in accordance with the Public Security Punishment Law, while posts and long articles that objectively recorded facts were all retained.
Instead of being held accountable, the people who were unjustly treated during the evacuation received apologies and care from the Shanghai Municipal Government and the central government.
What happened after that made more people speechless, and the chief secretary and the prime minister went to Shanghai in person, bowed deeply in front of the camera, in front of the people of the whole country, and apologized to the people with a heavy expression.
This scene was being shown on TV, and through the screen, Yang Xiaoqian saw Chairman Wen with a tired face, and saw the deep self-blame in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel worried.
"It's because we're incompetent." Yang Xiaoqian sighed, if there is a strong enough force to ensure that the people of Shanghai are not harmed by the Demon Tide monsters, then thousands of families will not have to suffer this unwarranted disaster.
Compared with the economic and industrial losses, the tears of the people are more unbearable.
"President Yang doesn't have to blame himself, each of us has done our best, and every evacuee will be properly resettled after the war."
The immature voice floated into his ears, and Yang Xiaoqian squinted at the little boy sitting opposite the desk, he was dressed in a well-cut Peugeot suit, his hair was combed into threes and sevens, and a clean hairline was scraped, looking like a little adult.
"Huh." Yang Xiaoqian let out a sneer, restrained the thought of taking out the cigarette case, and stuffed a sugar cube into his mouth. He didn't want to smoke in front of small children.
"Don't you think so?" Liu Zhongqian blinked, trying his best to make the illusion that there were no mood swings, but there was still a trace of displeasure that was questioned.
"We all did our best." Yang Xiaoqian nodded and said in a cold voice, "I can say this." You say, is it appropriate? ”
