Xiao Zixin shook his head silently as he listened to the old man's words. His eyes were obviously cloudy with tears, and he felt increasingly uncomfortable without realizing it.
Would his friend Sun Wei not care about such a thing? Why did he let the old man run around looking here and there?
However, the whole matter was not clear, and he was not in a position to express his opinion. He only listened patiently to the old man's intermittently talking. For some reason, he suddenly thought of his parents in the countryside. If this kind of thing happened to his parents, he was not in the county.
What would happen if they became this official? Can they find a solution and a place to reason? Thinking about this, they became even more angry - an antique street! Although Sun Wei and others, including himself, have worked hard to rectify it, however,
, there are always endless colorful things and even sinful things!
It’s not like the county can completely shut it down or eradicate it…
Mr. Deng sighed and continued hoarsely. The next afternoon, unprepared, his son Deng Guifu came to the bathing center on Antique Street again. This time he came quietly and learned from the experience and lessons learned last time.
, he saw a man bargaining and flirting with the lady at the service desk, so he sneaked in. It was the time when most of the girls were sleeping and preparing to work at night.
Deng Guifu found the back room where his daughter lived, called her to get up, and ran away without even bothering to grab her things. He ran into a small alley, thinking that his daughter would be saved.
Who would have thought that there was someone waiting for them in front! The leader was the same person from yesterday. Several security guards pulled my daughter over. The guy yelled: "I rely on you nnd, you old bastard, do you think
Are you the only smart one? I didn’t beat you to death yesterday, right? Huh?! I raised your girl like a dog, eating well and drinking hot food all day long, and earning the money of two or three people. What the hell are you thinking? I told you
Do you know who I am? I’ll scare you to death if I tell you. You disappear immediately and don’t let me see you again! Did you hear me? Get out—”
If Deng Guifu doesn't get out, he has finally found his daughter and has already dragged her into an alley. How can he get out so easily?
Not only did he not get out, he got into a fight with the security guard who was dragging his daughter back to the bathing town. He even got punched in the mouth and refused to let go. He would rather die than let go!
Seeing that his father suffered a loss, his daughter Xiaoqiu seemed to be crying for something, which attracted a lot of spectators. Some people couldn't see it and wanted to take care of it, but when they saw the majestic man standing next to them, they stepped back. No one was there.
Dare to intervene, just watch the excitement, people stared at you and me yelling and kicking, Deng Guifu is really a stubborn man, he still won't let go even if he wants to die.
"I'll test your mother! I told you to be stubborn -" the leading man was impatient, thinking he had lost face, "beat me to death, beating to death will be in vain, you are paralyzed!"
He ordered his men to slash Deng Guifu's hamstrings and hands with knives at the gate. Two of Deng Guifu's hamstrings and one wrist were severed.
The red-eyed security guards ignored the blood splattered all over their bodies and stabbed Deng Guifu several more times until Deng Guifu could no longer move.
Xiaoqiu watched helplessly as her father was beaten and maimed, crying until she lost her voice...
"555555..."
The man named "Third Brother" had a cigarette in his mouth. He raised his feet and smiled as he pushed Deng Guifu's bloody and muddy face lying on the ground. He snorted: "You old lamp keeper, how dare you talk to me?"
Challenge me, I will make you crawl on the ground for the rest of your life." After that, he waved his hand and led the security guards to drag Xiaoqiu away.
Later, someone secretly told him that the "third brother" who beat him was the son of the city's industrial and commercial director. His real name was Gao Yitian, nicknamed "Gaomao", and he was a "gangster" boss. He had opened a nightclub in the Antique Street for so many years, and he had no success.
Anyone who dared to provoke Wang Liye, the most famous "Secretary Wang Guoqing's son" in the antique street, Su Datou, Secretary Bai's nephew, and his brother Su Jun, the head of the economic law enforcement brigade of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, all gave him three points. "There are people from the court and the procuratorate, and they will fight.
Your fight is in vain, go home quickly."
The arrival of this natural disaster confused Deng Guifu. Although his life was finally saved with the efforts of his daughter and the hospital, his whole body was paralyzed and the huge medical expenses were simply too much for an ordinary farmer like him.
An astronomical figure, a lifetime of hard work, can never earn so much money!
I don’t know who my daughter borrowed it from. When can I, an old farmer, repay the money? What makes him even more tearful is that more than a month has passed, and the judicial and relevant departments that the family has sought help from have nowhere to go.
Give them justice. It's just as people say. Beating them is in vain. Beating them to death can only give them money to settle the matter. "This is the society. If you want to be reasonable, who will reason with you?"
"In the world of officials, the poor are like this. Who told you that you have no money and no power..."
Until Deng Guifu committed suicide, his wife left, and his daughter Xiaoqiu didn't come back. She didn't know whether she was alive or dead.
The family, which was originally poor but considered complete, poor and happy, broke up.
"Alas!" The old man sighed heavily at the ceiling, wiped his eyes, and ended his complaint. Hearing this, Xiao Zixin felt more and more uncomfortable. It can be said that he had mixed feelings!
After all, he himself is also the son of a farmer and a poor man. Although he is now an official in the county, and the official is becoming more and more powerful, however, whenever he sees or hears about these injustices in the world, he feels uneasy in his heart.
He is sad and confused, and feels powerless! What can he do? He can't change anything, just like the saying that old unbelievers often say now: "This society...has no cure!"
"Uncle, I understand everything you said and I have written it down," Xiao Zixin said, "Don't be too sad..."
The old man shook his head helplessly, wiped away his tears again, and finally blew his nose and said hoarsely, "I'm not sad, I'm not sad... Oh, my child, I just can't understand. In the past, I risked my life to keep up with ***
During the war, we knew we needed to liberate and build a new society, but after all these years of liberation, why did a 'gangster' appear again? Is there any royal law?"
Xiao Zixin couldn't answer his words. What could he say or answer? This kind of thing could only happen to them, old and unbelievers who have no power or money. It could not happen to Xiao Zixin or other officials.
Even if it happens to someone and their family members, someone will take care of it. But when I think about it, I can't help but be stunned, it's impossible!
Don't talk about anything else, just Zhang Chaomin, director of the county party committee office, isn't it the best example? He was chopped like that on the antique street. Now he still often has health problems. Isn't it also that he hasn't completely solved it? The bastard who chopped people up.
And the Soviet army who planned and commanded behind them were also just locked up and could not be sentenced! What about the helpless old man and his family in front of him?
In such a "society", no one is safe!
sad……
However, this also strengthened Xiao Zixin's confidence and determination to go to the Public Security Bureau as a political commissar from another aspect! The more this happened, the more he should report to the County Public Security Bureau as soon as possible. In any case, although he did not dare to give the old man
An answer, but as long as the facts are confirmed, we will always find a way to give his family a reasonable explanation in the future, and this matter must not be left alone...
I thought so in my heart, but Xiao Zixin couldn't say it yet. When the old man told Xiao Zixin these things, Xiao Zixin sat on the sofa and said nothing. Occasionally, he wrote down something in his notebook, and most of the time he just kept looking at it.
he.
After finishing speaking, for a while, the old man felt a little desperate but still stubbornly sighed and said: "My child... no matter how long, no one dares to deceive God!"
"It's a pity that there is no place to reason now. I am so old and have this disease. I will never be able to find an explanation in this life. I will just go to the underworld to find my son. I am not willing to accept it! Hehehehe..."
The old man's tears flowed into two black streams on his old and rough face, and his thin shoulders trembled greatly in front of Xiao Zixin's eyes.
Xiao Zixin, the famous deputy director of the county party committee office, is also a bloody man after all. Although he was born with a handsome appearance, he was obviously excited and he felt the nerves in his head beating.
He had already heard about the bad reputation of "Water Love Bathing and Entertainment Center" and "Third Brother" mentioned by the old man. In the past few times, when he participated in the work of the Public Security Bureau to deal with the fire incident of Moon Tower on Antique Street, he also heard about this man and his name many times.
There was a huge network of connections behind it, but the main target at that time was Su Jun, the head of the Economic Law Enforcement Team of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. No one reported him, so there was nothing he could do...
However, the old man came here tonight because of his reputation and secretly found his room in the County Party Committee Hotel. It was also a coincidence that this was the last night he stayed here for many years!
Can I, the "director of the county party committee" (in Mr. Deng's words, he omitted everything and directly called Xiao Zixin, the deputy director of the county party committee office, the director of the county party committee) push him out the door again? What's more, he is about to go to the county public security bureau.
Becoming a political commissar??
Of course not!
While wiping his tears, the old man pointed to a chest full of old medals of various sizes and said, "Son, whether it's any use to you or not, please take a look at what this is? Comrade Chairman of the County Party Committee! I'll follow *** there.
I’ve been to Shandong, Sichuan and Hainan, and also North Korea!”
Just this sentence made Xiao Zixin's blood rush again...
"At that time, I fought against the Kuomintang, Japan, and the United States! These are all testimonies of defeating the enemy, understand!?" As he spoke, he stood up and searched among the medals on his chest, one, two, three...
Finally found it, he picked up the worn-out bra and showed it to Xiao Zixin: "Look, this is the medal for defeating the fascists in the bloody battle of Taierzhuang! This was given to me personally by the commander of the theater, Commander Li! It doesn't work anymore...
…”
As he spoke, the old man took out a low-quality "Darcy" cigarette from his pocket. He seemed to remember something, looked up at the bright standard hotel room, and stuffed the crumpled cigarette back into his pants pocket.
"Alas..." This sigh came suddenly from Xiao Zixin's heart. At this time, Xiao Zixin fully understood the helplessness and pain that this uninvited guest, the old man, had experienced and felt. In recent years, he has
He is famous for his integrity and genius. Integrity refers to handling the big and small things in the officialdom, and genius refers to handling the big and small things assigned by Secretary Gao Wentai, including Secretary Gao Wentai. It is precisely because of this that the county committee and county government, including the streets and alleys,
The people spread the word word of mouth and tried every possible means to make him become the deputy director of the county party committee office.
Now, he is about to take office as the political commissar of the County Public Security Bureau. Through the old man in front of him, he really should think carefully about how to carry out work there...
In Xuanpu, he didn't like to meddle in "nosy business" but liked to meddle in "business." This was not just an emotional issue, but had a deeper meaning. Looking at the old man's deep and cloudy eyes, he also
He straightened his posture, calmed his mind, and said seriously: "Uncle, if you want to smoke, you can smoke. Come on, I'll smoke too, smoke mine."
He bent down and took out a box of red Chinese soft-packed cigarettes from under the coffee table, tore off the wrapping strip and handed it to the old man: "Smoke this."
The old man hesitated, took it, looked at the brand, hesitated and clamped it to his ear, then lit the crumpled cigarette that he had broken off. From then on, he kept smoking and stopped talking.
Xiao Zixin also lit it and smoked it slowly, thinking about something in his mind. Later, the old man told him that with the secret guidance of kind people and after careful consideration, he decided to ask Xiao Zixin for help. He said that after his son's death, he wanted to explain things to him.
He took it over. For more than a month, he had no time to live, and he traveled through the counties and cities. At first, he still had money to pay for tickets, so he came by car, but then he ran out of money. For sixty or seventy miles, he had to rely on his old arm.
My legs are running back and forth...
"I also ran through provincial capitals and Beijing. In the end, I realized that it was useless to go to the government, the government, the provincial party committee and the Ministry of Public Security. The solution must be local."
"But the police took it, but the procuratorate suppressed it. The procuratorate took it, but the court returned it. It's still happening today."
The "Sword from Above" that the old man had worked so hard to recover has become a useless thing, which is equivalent to a piece of waste paper. Those people do whatever they want, and live like the boss and the second child! "That brothel"
Street (accent: should) still ask rich people to harm girls from poor families like us every day..."
When seeing these waste papers, the old man becomes even more sad. He is often puzzled and full of emotions, "Grandma, what a bear! What's going on these days? It seems that the underworld is more powerful than the government. Is there really no place for reasoning?"
Alas, I don’t care about anything! Even if I am expelled from the party and accused of being anti-party, I have to say, how can such a thing happen? What is said above is very good, but what is being done below is such nonsense, why? They!"
"Uncle, don't worry," Xiao Zixin said, "It's okay if I don't know about this thing you keep doing today. Since you kept asking and found me, I'll keep asking you to find out what's going on.
Let me find out." The old man's words reminded Xiao Zixin of an incident not long ago: In May, a major incident occurred in the most prosperous and lively antique street in the center of the county, in which evil forces merged, resulting in two deaths and six injuries...
…and it also attracted the attention of neighboring country B across the river.
Although the matter was quickly solved by Sun Wei and others, and the murderer was caught, he, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, the Director of Public Security, and the Deputy Director in charge of criminal investigation were almost dismissed from office because of this, and the former Director of Public Security was also implicated.
, idle at home for a few months, and was later demoted to the Procuratorate as deputy section chief. Indeed, although Xuanpu County's economic development trend has been very good in recent years, although it has achieved remarkable results through repeated environmental improvements, it has been inconsistent...
Xiao Zixin basically understood the harm to the old man and his family. If what the old man said was entirely true, then the "Gao Mao" who broke Deng Guifu's hamstring was the mastermind behind the case.
The strange thing is that although the case was solved, the police, prosecutors and law did not initiate prosecution as a criminal offense, but handled the matter as a general public security case. The main personnel, including Gao Mao, walked out of the detention center soon.
, continue to dominate society in the antique street.
In this regard, as the old man said: "Catch and release, catch and release..."
The tragic experience of the old man and his family really caused quite a stir in Xiao Zixin's heart. He secretly calculated that when he became the "director of the county party committee", he served the leaders a lot, especially Secretary Gao Wentai. However, in normal times,
He really didn’t extend the time for ordinary people to do things, but when he was ordered to go to the Public Security Bureau to coordinate and cooperate with Sun Wei in handling the Moon Tower fire incident on the antique street, he really took action. In addition to arresting Su Jun, Su Datou, the captain of the Economic Law Enforcement Brigade of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, he also
Offended many people...
But I have never heard of a situation like the one described by the old man before, and I wonder if I can help him after I get to the county public security bureau.
The old man sat there silently, smoking a cigarette, obviously hoping to leave the room with a satisfactory answer.
However, do I have the ability to satisfy the old man? The social security in Xuanpu is extremely chaotic, and other aspects are also very complicated. Various relationships are intertwined, which cannot be changed by him as a "county party committee director". What he cares most about is the one named Xiaoqiu.
Girl: "Uncle, how is your granddaughter doing now?"
The old man sighed heavily, shook his head and said nothing. After a while, the butt of the cigarette that could hardly be held was crushed to death in the ashtray.
"I have a sexually transmitted disease, I don't want it
