The smoke and dust were spreading. People from Sections 3 and 5 took heavy water fire extinguishing equipment and sprayed it on some areas that were already on fire. The moment the fine water droplets came into contact with the flames, they instantly expanded several times like a torrent, and the flames were quickly doused.
destroy.
"Hand it over!"
A person from Section 5 looked at several helpless people. They obediently handed over the dangerous items they carried to the people from Section 5, but these people from Section 5 did not arrest them.
There were more and more people on the street, and many people who had gone home and locked their doors and windows began to come out and join the street, quietly watching Le Xiao who was talking to the protestors on the light and shadow screen.
The originally frenzied streets gradually calmed down. When violent conflicts were about to break out, Le Xiao's shouts were conveyed through the light and shadow screens that appeared one after another.
At this time, Pasha was standing on the side of the street, leaning against the wall, looking at several people who were about to be arrested and shouted immediately.
"Just ask them to hand over the dangerous objects, and just keep quiet."
Seeing that many of the staff members in front of me have changed their attitudes, they no longer treat them with anger. Most of them are trying to persuade some people who are still a little emotional to calm down.
Pasha looked at the scorched black spots on the ground with smoke and dust rising. The situation was under control, just right. If it continued to escalate, according to past situations, many people who resorted to violence during demonstrations would
Will definitely be expelled.
Pasha has seen this situation too many times. Ever since she was just an ordinary clerk, she has often dealt with such riots. Many riots were just quarrels at the beginning, but the deeper reason is the long-term backlog of conflicts.
.
In her childhood memory, the most profound thing that Pasha remembered was a man who was arrested for stealing. The reason why he stole was for his sick family members, but because the amount of items stolen was huge, he was sentenced to jail.
He was imprisoned for 10 years. At that time, many people nearby defended him, because this man often helped some people on weekdays, because he could not borrow money from Section 7, which was still a bank at the time.
On the day of the verdict, many people felt it was unfair that such a good man finally walked out in handcuffs. That day was an off-campus practical class held by Pasha's school. As a result, many people gathered around the door of the court and learned about the verdict.
Later, stones were thrown at the managers at the time, and the conflict between the two sides continued to intensify.
Based on this incident, large-scale riots occurred in the entire area on the same day. The courthouse was directly burned down by fire, the administrators were hijacked and killed, and the angry crowd wreaked wanton destruction on the streets.
Pasha clearly remembered that the teacher took them to the school to take refuge. The rioters finally rushed to the school and insisted without any basis that the parents of these children who could afford to go to school must be exploiters.
They just wanted to find a breakthrough to vent their inner anger, but two hours after the riot started, the army intervened. Pasha witnessed those who rushed into the school being shot and killed, and soon followed by toughness.
With the suppression, the riot ended within an hour, but the streets were already filled with blood. That was the first time Pasha saw a dead person. What does it look like when a bullet passes through a human body? Each picture was twisted with anger. Finally,
After being suppressed, he showed an expression of despair and humiliation.
"Aren't you tired?"
Pasha muttered in a low voice. Almost all the people on the street became quiet at this time. Looking at the light and shadow screen, they were all ordinary people. There were many problems at the bottom. The whole environment was like this, like a huge quagmire.
Pasha has been working here for more than 10 years, and she has no intention of climbing up. She had the opportunity before, but Pasha chose to refuse.
One morning five years ago, Pasha was called into the section chief's office.
"Recently, a director in Section 7 has retired, and they lack a capable person. I recommended you to them. I have already submitted your resume. You can take a look and add some of your own strengths."
"No need, Lady Niya, I don't really want to leave the bottom floor anymore!"
Niya just smiled and threw a cigarette to Pasha.
"What's wrong? Have you caught the breath of the bottom!"
Pasha turned around and nodded, lit the cigarette and walked towards the door.
"Sister Niya, my district is now very stable. There has not been a single criminal case in the past six months. The crime rate has been curbed. To be honest, I am a little lazy. Everything now looks good to me."
"Then work hard. If you change your mind, you can come to me at any time and I will make arrangements for you in advance."
The sun was shining brightly that morning, and Pasha remembered it very clearly. At that time, she wanted to nod her head immediately. However, when she thought about it, there was actually nothing bad about the lower floors. Prices were cheap, and the streets were not always miserable. They were also filled with laughter and joy.
In fact, Pasha herself knows the human touch. She doesn't like the cold environment of the middle and upper classes, and she can't stand the more demanding work and interpersonal relationships, so she still chooses to stay at the bottom.
Sometimes Pasha will handle some cases personally on a whim, and will also listen to the complaints of some people involved in the case. Of all the regional officers in the bottom 60 districts, only 6 have been promoted in the past 15 years, and most of the others have been promoted.
Everyone has been working at the bottom for almost a lifetime, and some have been in office for more than 30 years.
Pasha has seen many things, and there is only one word they can do nothing about. The only thing they can do is to improve social security and effectively reduce the crime rate. For many issues, they can only avoid conflicts as much as possible. For some things, they can only
Choose a compromise approach.
Over the years, the bottom has maintained stability, like a pool of stagnant water. Although many people live a difficult life, they can still live a stable life. In the past, when Pasha first took office, there would always be some routine surprise inspections to violate laws and regulations.
industry, but under such long-term inspections, the lives of many people who can only live on the edge of the law have been severely disrupted, and the entire neighborhood has become chaotic.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Over the years, Pasha gradually understood that it was no one’s fault. Pasha lit a cigarette and turned her head to look at the sun shining down on her face.
Place, layer by layer, you can clearly see the layering of light at this time. The light on the upper layer is the most dazzling, while the light on the middle layer is weaker, and it is completely different on the lower layer.
Pasha stretched out her fingers, and there was no trace of warmth in the glimmer of light shining on her fingertips. The air would only start to heat up around 10 o'clock. In the morning, she could only see the light, but not enjoy the warmth.
To break all this, there must be a strong, dazzling, extremely hot light that can break through everything. Pasha smoked quietly and looked at Le Xiao on the light and shadow screen. In Pasha's concept, her own qualifications
is mediocre, and her father often said that everyone's talents are different, and people with mediocre qualifications abound. It is enough to work hard and reach the upper limit of one's own qualifications. As for other things, leave it to those with qualifications.
Only extraordinary geniuses can go.
Looking at Lexiao on the screen, Pasha's original serious expression relaxed, and the corners of her mouth were raised slightly. In Pasha's eyes, this 26-year-old genius from the bottom of society shines brightly in his words and deeds. From her sudden appearance,
After being pushed to the position of secretary of Section 13, the originally peaceful city began to undergo drastic changes.
Now thinking about it carefully, Pasha was still a little scared. She looked at her trembling hands. During the riots in the two bottom districts last month, someone from the reinforcement team in Pasha's district died.
Members, because there is no way to pull the trigger on those angry ordinary citizens. It is obvious that no one is at fault. Everyone just wants to live a better life and a better life.
Pasha still clearly remembers the scene when the parents of the new officers came to claim their bodies and collect their pensions. At 7 o'clock this morning, when Pasha learned that a demonstration had taken place in the area, she was angry.
, helpless, but the order she received was to follow the command of Section 13 Secretary Le Xiao. But up to now, Le Xiao has not issued any orders, but her actions stopped the upcoming riot.
Different from the orders on ordinary days, before all previous riots, Pasha and the others received orders only to act according to the situation. Once a riot broke out, they would immediately suppress it. If the suppression escalated into a bloody conflict, they were allowed to shoot directly.
"It's actually very simple, isn't it?"
Pasha pressed her forehead with one hand, feeling a little out of control for a moment. Tears began to overflow from her eyes. The out-of-control situation was under control. Although everyone did not receive the order, they saw what Le Xiao did and asked them to stop the demonstration.
The clerks got out of the way and walked over to listen to what they were saying. Such a simple approach successfully stopped the situation in the bottom 58 districts that was about to go on a rampage.
Looking at many people sitting quietly on the ground, looking up at the light and shadow screen, some people started to cry. Maybe they didn't know why they were crying. Pasha just squatted quietly in the corner, pulled down the brim of her hat, and said nothing.
shed tears.
It was clear that such a simple approach could be used to resolve a bloody conflict, but no one did it. No one thought that because of the last riot in Pasha's district, one of the people who went to reinforce him was his sister.
, but she will never wake up now. She has been clamoring to come to the bottom as soon as she joined the administrative department.
Many female squad leaders stood in front of Pasha and formed a group. They all knew how the commander was feeling at this moment, but they knew very well that Pasha didn't want others to see it, especially under such circumstances.
"We just...want to live a better life. We can borrow money from Section 7 when we are in crisis. When we are sick, we don't have to go to the middle level to buy medicine. When we are looking for a job, we can borrow money from Section 7."
You will not be rejected before you even ask because you are born at the bottom. Many of our children here cannot afford to go to school. Many of them cannot be included in the scope of ordinary people’s medical and pension insurance because of their citizenship status. We
I just want to tell people in the middle and upper classes that we are also human beings and part of this city!"
Le Xiao nodded, still smiling, the leading man in front of her was crying, and the crowd sobbed softly from time to time.
"Anyone else want to say anything?"
Le Xiao glanced around and saw that it was almost 10 o'clock, and people kept talking about their tragic experiences, the injustices they suffered, and their helpless lives.
Everyone was silent, no one spoke anymore, and most of the questions they spoke about could already represent themselves. Time passed by, and it was nearly 10 minutes.
"I'm sorry, I can't make any promises to you, I can't promise you anything!"
Le Xiao said and bowed to everyone. In the past ten minutes, Le Xiao thought clearly. Although the memory is very vague, her father often warned herself not to make random promises to others. Once you make a promise, you must keep it.
arrive.
At this time, many people had a look of helplessness on their faces, and many nodded silently. Even if they said what they wanted to say, life will continue to hit everyone tomorrow, and they still have to continue living.
.
"I heard everything you said today, and I heard it very clearly, so what I want to say is that I will try to find ways to change the current situation at the bottom. This is the only thing I can promise you. I am not a god.
, I can only do things within my capabilities. My parents always told me in the past, if one day you feel desperate, sad and helpless, just look at the sun in the sky and think about what else I have.
What else can I do? Now my idea is very simple. Work seriously at the bottom. This is the only thing I can do. If any of you are dissatisfied, what kind of complaints do you have? In my spare time at work
, I am very happy to listen to what you have to say. I am very sorry. This is my first day officially starting work. I am only 26 years old this year, but I feel... I can do a lot of things. A lot.
There are many, if you believe in beauty, you can always see beautiful things no matter what environment you are in!"
Le Xiao looked at the person in front of her seriously and put on her hat.
"Now I have to go back to work, because there are still many businessmen waiting to submit some novel and interesting products, maybe some of them can change everyone's lives, so... can you please go back in an orderly manner! Isn't there tomorrow?
Is there a TV show about mutant exams? How about this? The low-level mutant exams are broadcast live for free. Take a few days to relieve fatigue and try again!"
Le Xiao smiled, raised her hand and waved it, then clenched it into a fist, turned around and walked slowly.
At this time, some people on the edge began to turn around and disperse. Many people nodded and left. More and more people chose to leave the street. When Le Xiao returned to the door of Section 13 store, there were protests at the street entrance.
The crowd has dispersed.
