"I'm Peng Yuanzheng." Peng Yuanzheng grabbed the phone and said calmly.
The other end of the phone fell silent, and it seemed that he could hear the other party's rapid breathing. Peng Yuanzheng was startled, frowned and said, "Hey, where are you?"
"County Magistrate Peng, two senior high school boys from No. 1 Middle School in the neighboring county who had just taken the college entrance examination were beaten by a gang of gangsters for no reason. They are still lying in the hospital with very serious injuries. One of them is still unconscious," came the phone call.
A soft and suppressed female voice had some changes in tone and shape. Peng Yuanzheng immediately realized that the other party might be wearing a mask or covering the phone receiver with a towel.
Peng Yuanzheng said in a deep voice, "What's going on? Please tell me clearly! Who are you?"
"County Magistrate Peng, don't worry about who I am. Anyway, I want to report and complain to the county leaders and ask them to make decisions for the students." The female voice on the other end of the phone was slightly excited.
"Did you call the police?"
"We reported it, but it was useless. People from the Public Security Bureau and gangsters were in collusion with the police and gangsters. After we called the police, the parent of one of the students was caught by a group of gangsters in front of the hospital and was beaten and threatened in public. He said that if he called the police again, he would
Break his legs." The female voice on the other end of the phone became angry instantly, "If this continues, will the people be allowed to live?"
“Do the people’s police in this county protect the people, or do they clear the way for the underworld?”
"Don't get excited, tell me slowly - why were those two students beaten?" Peng Yuanzheng said softly, "Don't worry, tell me slowly!"
"Because..." the voice on the other end of the phone fell silent, and then said hurriedly after a moment. "Because these two students offended the gangsters of the Tiger Gang because they wanted to protect their teacher."
"Tell me carefully." Peng Yuanzheng frowned and took the pen to take a note, but the other party hung up the phone at this moment.
There was a busy buzzing tone on the phone. Peng Yuanzheng picked up the phone and his face darkened.
The person who made this anonymous call was either a teacher from No. 1 Middle School or a parent of a student. He couldn't be sure. It was the parent of the student who was seriously beaten as mentioned in the call. Peng Yuanzheng let out a sigh of relief, and a little anger rose in his heart.
Against the background of his repeated orders to the County Public Security Bureau to crack down on gangster crimes and maintain public order, something like this happened again. He couldn't help but be angry.
Moreover, neither the Public Security Bureau nor the Education Bureau reported it to the county! This is simply unreasonable!
"Lao Huo, come with me to the hospital!" Peng Yuanzheng grabbed the phone and told Huo Guangming, and took the car to go to the county hospital.
In the corridor, Xie Hui saw Peng Yuanzheng striding over with an ugly expression, and hurried forward to say hello, "County Chief Peng! I'm here to report my work to the leader."
Peng Yuanzheng glanced at Xie Hui and said calmly, "Let's not talk about work first. You and I will go to the county hospital first."
…
In the car, Xie Hui, some monks of two feet, were confused and did not dare to ask more questions. They could only remain silent.
The car was speeding along, and when it was about to enter the gate of the county hospital, Peng Yuanzheng suddenly said softly, "Xie Hui, two students from County No. 1 Middle School who had just finished the college entrance examination were beaten seriously by gangsters in the street. Do you know?"
Xie Hui was startled and thought that this matter had finally reached the ears of the executive deputy county magistrate, and he didn't know who was talking behind his back.
"County Magistrate Peng, we are already investigating. The available evidence shows that this should be an accidental injury. Two students accidentally clashed with a few gangsters..."
Before Xie Hui finished speaking, he was abruptly interrupted by Peng Yuanzheng, "Accidental injury? Being beaten at the school gate. What kind of accident is this? Then, let me ask you again, after the parents of the students called the police, why did they attract gangsters again?
Beatings, threats and intimidation by gangs? What does this mean? Is this also accidental and accidental? Huh?”….
Xie Hui opened his mouth in embarrassment and fell silent. He could not answer Peng Yuanzheng's question and could not explain it clearly.
After the car entered the hospital, Huo Guangming inquired about the ward where the two students who had been beaten were located, and led the way to the third floor of the ward building. Coincidentally, in the ward where the two students were located, the school leaders of No. 1 Middle School and several
All the teachers were present, surrounded by indignant parents and relatives, with smiling faces.
Seeing Peng Yuanzheng coming over, the parents and relatives of the students left the school leaders with a bang and surrounded Peng Yuanzheng. Some complained and wiped their tears, while others asked angrily. The scene became a mess.
"Don't get excited, please speak slowly..." Peng Yuanzheng stood there calmly, his voice gentle but firm, "On behalf of the county government, I promise that no matter what the price, the murderer will be brought to justice. Please
Parents, don’t worry!”
Peng Yuanzheng looked around the crowd, and he immediately spotted Bai Xue, the female teacher from No. 1 Middle School with bright eyes, white teeth, and pure temperament. His heart moved and he cast a meaningful glance at her.
Bai Xue lowered her head with some evasive eyes.
"How are the conditions of the two students?" Peng Yuanzheng turned to look at the doctor at the hospital.
The attending physician Chang Ting squeezed his way into the crowd and said with a smile, "County Magistrate Peng, it doesn't matter if one child only has two broken ribs and is not life-threatening. The other one has a more serious concussion and needs to be observed for a while to see if it is possible."
It’s not a surgical treatment.”
Peng Yuanzheng nodded solemnly, "The hospital is doing its best to treat these two students. If your hospital is not sure, quickly transfer them to a large hospital in the city for treatment!"
"Please rest assured, county leaders, we will go all out." Ma Lin, director of the county hospital and secretary of the party branch, appeared behind the crowd and gasped. When Ma Lin heard that Peng Yuanzheng had come to the hospital, he did not dare to neglect and trotted away.
come over.
The thump of high heels sounded in the empty hospital corridor, becoming increasingly dense and clear. Peng Yuanzheng looked up and saw Deputy County Magistrate Yan Hua and County Education Bureau Director Sun Kaiming walking over one after the other.
As soon as Yan Hua received the news, she immediately "carried" Sun Kaiming from the County Education Bureau to the hospital. On the way, she had already scolded Sun Kaiming. Such a serious incident of violent injuries to students occurred in No. 1 Middle School.
At the school gate, one can imagine the seriousness of the incident. But the county education bureau actually concealed it!
The two county leaders personally came to comfort the victims, and the mood of the parents of the victims became slightly more stable, but it was obvious that they did not trust the county leaders' statements. Moreover, based on some deep-seated concerns, they also proposed to transfer to another hospital.
Go to the city.
Peng Yuanzheng reported to Gong Hanlin and County Party Secretary Sun Xuelin on the phone at the hospital. Gong Hanlin was furious and immediately ordered the County Public Security Bureau to set up a task force to conduct a thorough investigation. At the same time, the county set up a special working group, with Peng Yuanzheng leading various departments.
Deputy County Magistrate Yan Hua cooperated in the investigation, aftermath and accountability of this incident of violent injury to students.
…
Peng Yuanzheng sat in front of the hospital bed of Shan Tao, the less injured student who had been beaten, and tried to say a few words to the child. But the tall and strong boy, despite his bloody head and two broken ribs, ate
Although he suffered a lot, he still turned his head stubbornly and ignored Peng Yuanzheng's questions.
Peng Yuanzheng read a hint of rebellion and hostility in Shan Tao's eyes, and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.
Shan Tao's father, Shan Naichao, smiled awkwardly and said, "County Magistrate Peng, don't pay attention to him. This kid is just a stupid kid who doesn't distinguish between vertical and horizontal directions. He doesn't remember much after being beaten!"
Shan Naichao was also beaten for calling the police, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he was also threatened. For a whole day, Shan Naichao and his wife did not dare to leave the hospital, and asked Shan Tao's uncle and his wife to help deliver food...
Peng Yuanzheng smiled and said, "It's okay. He was just frightened. Don't be too hard on him."
At this time, Shan Tao suddenly turned his head with difficulty and looked at Peng Yuanzheng and Yan Hua and said loudly, "Stop being hypocritical, there is a bunch of corrupt officials, none of them are good!"
Everyone present was shocked and astonished. This boy was so silent that he became a blockbuster!
Shan Naichao was frightened and hurriedly shouted angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? Shut up!"
"County Magistrate Peng, Magistrate Yan, leaders, this kid is ignorant and talks all the time, please don't take offense..." Shan Naichao explained fearfully.
"Shan Tao, you have a great sense of justice." Peng Yuanzheng laughed loudly and pointed at Sun Kaiming behind him. Xie Hui and others said, "Did you hear that? This case must be investigated as soon as possible. Give us
Classmate Shan Tao will explain!"
Peng Yuanzheng did not continue to struggle with this embarrassing issue. He turned to look at Yan Hua and said with a smile, "Sister Yan, please make arrangements. These two children have just completed the college entrance examination. Don't delay them in filling out their applications."
Yan Hua nodded, and Sun Kaiming, the director of the Education Bureau standing behind her, expressed his position in a panic, "Please rest assured that county leaders, when the college entrance examination results come out, their further studies will not be delayed."
Peng Yuanzheng took a deep breath and strode out of the hospital. Xie Hui saw him leaving and quickly chased after him.
At the entrance of the hospital, Bai Xue suddenly appeared from one side, looked at Peng Yuanzheng and said softly, "County Magistrate Peng, can I talk to you?"
Peng Yuanzheng stopped and smiled, "Okay."
The two people walked out of the hospital gate side by side and walked along the road.
"County Magistrate Peng, this is actually my fault. I was the one who harmed these two students." Bai Xue was silent for a moment and then said faintly, "They are students in my class. After the college entrance examination, the class had a party the day before yesterday.
At that time, there were some hooligans pestering me at the school gate. Shan Tao and I couldn't stand it, so we went up to argue with them, and the result was——"
"These hooligans are not ordinary hooligans." Bai Xue stopped slowly, turned his head and looked at Peng Yuanzheng quietly, his voice seemed to have a hint, "They came for me, if it doesn't work, I am ready to resign and leave.
It’s in the county.”
"Haha, there is no need for Teacher Bai to be so depressed. Don't worry, this time, the county will definitely investigate this case strictly and take this as an opportunity to intensify the crackdown and strengthen social security."
