Lu Yiwei abruptly sat up from his chair. Everyone turned their heads towards the window in unison, trying to see what was going on through the hazy morning mist. It was all white outside the window. It was hard to tell if it was haze or smoke.
"What happened?" Lu Yiwei asked nervously.
Cai Xiao Qiang, who was at the side, pretended to be calm. His sharp eyes turned to Qu Wenzhou, and he hurriedly said, "Quickly go and see what's going on."
Qu Wenzhou rushed out of the room. Lu Yiwei had a hunch that something bad was going to happen. He pushed his chair away and walked out of the door. Cai Xiaoqiang quickly stopped him and said, "Secretary General Lu, Manager Qu has gone to take a look. You don't have to go."
Lu Yiwei glared at him fiercely and squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Get lost!"
After that, he pushed his chair away and ran downstairs. Zhang Zhiyuan did not dare to take it lightly. He got up and followed Lu Yiwei with a heavy heart. Ma Feifei was a woman after all. She did not come back to her senses after a long time. Her mouth was wide open in surprise. Shi Xiaoman pushed her and jumped up as if she had been electrocuted. She stammered, "Xiaoman, what did you hear?"
Shi Xiaoman heard it clearly and had already guessed the result. She was afraid that Ma Feifei would be worried, so she said calmly, "Mayor Ma, don't worry. It might be a small problem."
Ma Feifei shook her head desperately. She quickly took her leather coat from the chair and put it on. She rushed to the scene worriedly. Shi Xiaoman was careful. She quickly took the wine out and cleaned up the scene.
The cafeteria was a certain distance away from the workshop. Lu Yiwei was running while panting. Not far away, a cloud of gray dust rose into the sky. It was like Satan, showing its fangs and claws in the air, revealing a hideous and twisted smile. At the same time, he could hear miserable screams and cries, like a sharp knife stabbing deep into his chest.
Lu Yiwei could not help but speed up. The car behind him quickly stopped in front of him. He did not have time to look back. He continued to run.
After passing the office building, he saw that the entrance of the third workshop was full of people. There were not only the demolition team and staff, but also the family members of the workers. The ear-piercing cries came closer and closer, stimulating his pulse all the way to his heart.
Lu Yiwei dug out his body's potential and rushed over in one breath. He pushed his way through the crowd and was completely stunned by what he saw.
There were four to five corpses lying under the crane. They were badly mutilated, their bodies severely deformed, and their internal organs were all squeezed out. One of them was completely flattened, and his face was beyond recognition. His brain sprayed onto the machine beside him, and his blood dyed the clothes and the ruins red.
Having been an official for more than a decade, Lu Yiwei had experienced too many life and death situations. When the mine disaster happened in Nanyang County, he saw with his own eyes ice-cold corpses being carried out from the mine pit. The family members knelt in the cold wind and cried in grief. It was a miserable scene that was unforgettable. So much so that for a long time, whenever he closed his eyes at night, those terrifying scenes would appear before his eyes.
Today's scene was more tragic than any of the previous ones. It was the first time he saw corpses and blood flowing everywhere. Everyone at the scene was shocked by the scene in front of them. They were all stunned and didn't know what to do.
It was quiet, strangely quiet.
"What the f * ck are you doing standing there? There's a person under the crane!"
Someone shouted at the top of his lungs. Lu Yiwei suddenly woke up from his dream. Without thinking, he rushed over and inserted his hand under the heavy crane, trying to lift it with all his strength. Seeing this, others came over to help. After a lot of effort, the crane was lifted. There was indeed someone under it. Lu Yiwei knew him. It was the former president of the union, Zhao Guoqing.
Except for his head, which was intact, his body had been crushed into a meat patty. Bright red blood flowed slowly along the groove, and it was even steaming. A person had died just like that.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Lu Yiwei's body trembled. His lips were purple, his face was pale, and the pupils in his bloodshot eyes were gradually dilating. He stared at Zhao Guoqing's eyes, which were wide open, as if he had died with a grievance.
Perhaps it was the fear of death, or even the repentance of the dead, Lu Yiwei involuntarily knelt down, so much so that he couldn't hear any sound.
At this time, an agitated old man rushed in front of him, waving his fist and punching him. He muttered, "What a sin, what a sin."
Lu Yiwei did not resist and let him vent to his heart's content. All of this was caused by him. If he had stopped the construction in a hurry, this tragedy would not have happened.
Ma Feifei, who had rushed over, fainted before she could say anything after seeing this scene. Zhang Zhiyuan was more sober than ever. He shouted, "Don't just stand there. Call an ambulance."
This sound woke Lu Yiwei up. Now was not the time to repent. The urgent task was to deal with the scene as soon as possible. He hurriedly stood up and looked back for Cai Xiaoqiang, but he did not see him for a long time. He saw Qu Wenzhou standing aside. He walked over and ordered, "Immediately block the scene and disperse the crowd. Don't let anyone come near."
Qu Wenzhou realized that his chance had come. He nodded and said, "What about the body?"
"Have you called an ambulance?"
"Yes, it should be here soon."
Lu Yiwei made a prompt decision and said, "Quickly evacuate all the onlookers, including the family members. In addition, immediately clean up the scene and leave no traces. "
"This … is not appropriate, right?"
Lu Yiwei had no time to consider the consequences. He said firmly, "Listen to my command. If anything happens, I will bear the consequences."
After getting the order, Qu Wenzhou immediately settled the surrounding workers, but he was indifferent. He shouted angrily, "Everyone who participated today will be paid 5,000 yuan each. Pay on the spot."
With such a high reward, there were indeed unruly people. Everyone began to act. The family members were still wailing next to the body. A strong man went over to pick them up and dragged them to the side. Under Qu Wenzhou's command, the scene of the accident was immediately surrounded and no one was allowed to approach.
Lu Yiwei calmed down and found that the public security personnel had already evacuated. He saw Zhang Zhiyuan who was making a phone call not far away. He quickly walked over and waited for a while. After he hung up the phone, he said, "Secretary Zhang, it's not appropriate for you to appear here. Leave quickly. I will handle the rest."
How could Zhang Zhiyuan leave him alone? He said with a solemn expression, "I just reported to Governor Shen. He will come later. Did he report to Bai Zongfeng?"
Lu Yiwei did not care about this and shook his head.
Zhang Zhiyuan made a prompt decision, "You call and report now. You can't make the decision on your own and listen to the other party's command. Even if they investigate in the future, it has little to do with you. At this time, you must take off your clothes first. "
