The moonlight hung overhead and the stars twinkled.
Dong Xuebin read tomorrow afternoon's front page news again and again. He is the kind of character who does what he says. After remembering it, he picked up a lighter and quickly lit the newspaper to dispose of it. Then he took out the car keys and got in.
He got into the Porsche, drove out of the family home, and went straight to the scene of the accident that will happen tomorrow. Because the accident happened tomorrow afternoon, and the newspaper had just been printed, it was probably a temporary extra headline, and the names of the victims were not even written on it.
There was no clear identification result of the accident. It was just suspected that it was related to the construction materials and cutting corners. So Dong Xuebin still felt uneasy without seeing it with his own eyes, so he went.
On the way, he made a phone call home.
Beep beep, beep beep, it took a long time to get through.
"Hey." Xie Huilan's sleepy voice floated out, "What are you doing?"
"Are you all asleep?" Dong Xuebin said, "I want to ask you something, do you know about Xiping District No. 3 Middle School?"
Xie Huilan yawned, "No. 3 Middle School? The one that collapsed during the earthquake? I heard it once, what's the matter?"
Dong Xuebin said hurriedly: "Now the No. 3 Middle School has been rebuilt? How is the progress? Who is the builder? Who is responsible? Please tell me in detail."
"Tell me what you want to do first."
"Oh, tell me first."
"Okay, okay, I can't do anything about you." Xie Huilan paused and said: "This earthquake, many local elementary and middle schools collapsed, and the district and county governments below are responsible for the reconstruction. Some are through bidding, and some are
I'm looking for someone directly. I'm not sure about the construction company of Xiping No. 3 Middle School you mentioned, but the building materials seem to be provided by Seinfeld's company. I'm in charge of the school. That's why I met him years ago because of this.
After just one glance at Sein Fei, I can’t remember much about other things. Now Fenzhou City is full of rebuilt schools, why do you ask about No. 3 Middle School?”
The building materials were provided by Seinfeld? Hey! This is really a narrow road between enemies!
I was just about to deal with the one named Song! You even showed up to my door yourself!
Dong Xuebin immediately said: "Someone reported to me. I just asked casually. Okay, you go to bed first. I will go back later."
"knew."
Throwing the phone away, Dong Xuebin continued driving.
…
Xiping District.
In No. 3 Middle School, there was silence at the door.
Dong Xuebin parked the car on the side of the road not far away, got out of the car and looked ahead. This was once an earthquake-stricken area. Many buildings were collapsed and damaged. The current situation does not look much better. Many are being rebuilt.
It was a huge construction site with few street lights. Walking further, Dong Xuebin saw several teaching buildings of No. 3 Middle School. One of them has basically been completed, but it has not been renovated, and the other one is still under construction.
, the glass and windows were not opened, and some building materials were piled scatteredly at the door.
There was no one around, not even security guards.
Dong Xuebin saw that the management here was so loose, so he walked in, stood quietly in front of the unfinished teaching building, lowered his head and pinched a piece of building material, and knocked it on the ground a few times, click, Dong Xuebin also
Without exerting much force, this stone-like object broke into pieces with a sudden sound, and a lot of powder jumped out from the incision. It looked very weak at first glance, and the weight had no feel at all.
Is this broken?
What the hell is this material?
Dong Xuebin was a little annoyed. This was simply irresponsible. How could anyone do things like this? Isn't this a joke on the lives of the people, students and teachers?
However, Dong Xuebin is not an expert in this field after all. He doesn't know much about building materials, so he can't judge based on these alone. So, Dong Xuebin took out his mobile phone and simply took pictures, clicking into the pictures of these materials.
I checked my cell phone, looked up, and walked into the teaching building again. I took a few pictures of the surrounding walls that had not yet been repaired. I even picked up a shovel and stabbed the wall hard. Poof, the wall
As soon as the surface was splashed, there was a small pit, and some dirt and broken cement flew to the ground. It was shattered by a touch. Dong Xuebin took pictures again with a sullen face. How can the students attend class with this intensity? These guys!
I don’t care about anything for money!
Suddenly, there was a bright light outside, like a flashlight.
Dong Xuebin glanced outside, and two security guards appeared on the unfinished playground of the school, patrolling with flashlights. It turned out that there were no security guards, but that they had just gone on patrol. Dong Xuebin frowned and did not continue.
I flipped the phone through the window and went out from the back.
On the way back, Dong Xuebin felt heavy. Although he couldn't understand what was wrong with the material, he also understood that the building material was definitely substandard, and even he could see such an obvious problem. He didn't believe the person in charge and the supervisor.
I’m not sure, so it seems like it’s just a case of unqualified building materials. It can be traced back as mentioned in the maintenance report. It definitely involves some cadres in Xiping District. The review of building materials is not under the control of Dong Xuebin, but the quality supervision department.
The matter with the Construction Committee, but it involves the issue of cadres, has something to do with Dong Xuebin, and he can also legitimately take charge of this matter and punish these lawless people!
But how to find opportunities?
You can't take these pictures to the Discipline Inspection Commission yourself, right?
As soon as the car parked, Dong Xuebin had an idea. He took a laptop that had been kept in the car, turned it on, and started writing.
Twenty minutes later.
Dong Xuebin made a phone call to Liu Dahai, the director of the Huitian Township Police Station. Old Liu had a close relationship with him, so Dong Xuebin could not rest assured that he would handle this matter.
"Hey, Xue Bin." Liu Dahai yawned.
Dong Xuebin said: "Old Liu, are you sleeping? Did I disturb you and your sister-in-law's rest?"
Liu Dahai smiled and said: "I haven't slept yet. I just lay down to think about it. There are too many cases recently and I have trouble sleeping."
"Then you have to pay more attention to your adjustment. Nothing is as important as your body. By the way, something is wrong. Is it convenient for you to talk?"
"Convenient, you say."
"Do you have an email address or something? Give me a number and I'll send you something, including a report letter and some photos."
"Report letter?"
"Well, it's not convenient for me to come forward. You have a wide range of ways. Help me find a reliable person to print out a few copies of the thing. Send two of them to me, and send the other few to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection, which is our unit."
"Report anonymously?"
"Yes, are you in trouble?"
"It's a small matter, what's the trouble? When do you want it?"
"I'll need it tomorrow morning."
"So urgent? Then I'll find someone, it should be fine."
"Okay, thanks."
If there is no opportunity, create one.
With this self-directed and self-acted report letter, Dong Xuebin has a reason to come forward.
…
Municipal Party Committee Family Court.
Dong Xuebin pushed the door open and entered the house. He looked at his watch and saw that it was already past one o'clock at night. There was no movement in the half-open bedroom door. Knowing that Huilan was asleep, Dong Xuebin carefully took off his clothes and shoes and left.
Entering the bedroom, he gently lifted the quilt and got in, for fear of waking Huilan.
"Come back?" Xie Huilan listlessly raised her eyelids to look at his face, then closed them again and turned over tiredly.
"Woke you up?"
"Go to bed early."
"If you wake up, can I tell you something?"
"We'll talk about it tomorrow." Xie Huilan replied without answering, "I'm sleepy."
Dong Xuebin took a look, hugged Huilan's head, kissed her on the mouth, and stuffed his tongue into it.
"Stop making trouble, okay?" Xie Huilan said confusedly on one side of her head, "I'm sleepy."
Xie Huilan's impression of Dong Xuebin has always been that of elegance, grace, beauty and maturity. She has never been associated with the word cute. Only when Huilan is half asleep and half awake, these two words will appear on Huilan's face.
Above, Dong Xuebin also liked Huilan at this time the most.
"Then I'm talking and you listen."
"……Um."
"Someone reported to me that the teaching building of Xiping No. 3 Middle School has quality problems and the building materials are seriously substandard. They said that bribery and embezzlement of earthquake donations may be involved."
"Um?"
"I just went to the No. 3 Middle School to take a look. The situation is not optimistic. The building materials on the ground were easily broken by just kicking them. The same goes for the walls. I tried smashing them. I felt that if I hit them hard enough, they would be broken.
This wall probably won't hold up. Although it hasn't been built yet, it can't be so weak, right?" Dong Xuebin took out his mobile phone and flipped out the photo album, "Look Huilan, I just took this photo."
Xie Huilan opened her eyes, rubbed her eyes and said, "Help me."
Dong Xuebin helped her sit up and let her lean against the bed, "Look."
Xie Huilan took over the phone and flipped through the pages, frowning more and more, "It seems there are some problems, but this industry is more or less tricky. It is impossible to guarantee that every piece of material is qualified. As long as it is not a big problem,
There is no need to investigate further."
Dong Xuebin said firmly: "Believe me, it is definitely a big problem!"
"Then what do you want to do? Your Discipline Inspection Commission will take the lead? Start investigating embezzlement of disaster relief funds?"
"I haven't thought about this yet, but I think you need to mention this to the superiors tomorrow. The matter of Xiping No. 3 Middle School and other schools under construction are worthy of alarm. You are in charge of education.
Damn it, isn't this what you are responsible for? If you don't raise the issue, if something serious goes wrong in the teaching building, then you probably won't be able to escape your responsibility. We have to take it out first."
Xie Huilan thought for a while and said nothing.
"Do you think what I said is reasonable?" Dong Xuebin asked, "Just listen to me, this matter is settled."
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes at him and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you and give me the report letter tomorrow morning. I'll mention it to the mayor's office meeting then, but I can't guarantee whether the higher-ups will take measures.
, after all, this matter is relatively sensitive. If it causes tension among many engineering teams and construction parties, our city's post-disaster reconstruction tasks this year will not be completed. When the central government blames it, no one can bear the responsibility."
