Noon.
Guangming Street Office Building.
"Have you heard? The new Chief beat up some people! "
"Beat up people? Impossible! "
"Xiao Xu had just told me that he saw it with his own eyes."
"I also heard about it. Chief Dong beat up 26 of them!"
"Who are you trying to bluff? Are you serious?"
"Why would I lie to you? At that time, those merchants surrounded the people from the street office with sticks and knives and injured many of them. In the end, Chief Dong got angry and rolled up his sleeves to beat them up. Hey, Xiao Xu is here. Xiao Xu, tell them."
"What's there to say? All of us were stunned."
"Is that true?"
"I saw it with my own eyes. How can it be wrong?"
"Damn, what did our new Chief do in the past? Isn't he an Investment Promotion Agency staff? How come he is so good at fighting? "
"I heard Chief Dong had worked in the Public Security in the past. Oh, do you all remember our City's Safari Park incident?"
"Yes. That incident was featured on TV. Ah! I remember now! "
"The person who beat up the Siberian tiger is Chief Dong from Yan Tai County's Investment Promotion Agency. Isn't our Chief Dong from Yan Tai County's Investment Promotion Agency staff?"
"It's Chief Dong?"
"It must be him. If not, how can he be so powerful? He can even beat up the Siberian tiger, let alone more than 20 people."
"Huh? If you didn't mention it, I wouldn't have thought about it. That's right!"
"He is really capable. Our new Chief's fighting skills are too scary!"
The same words were spread all over Guangming Street. In less than a morning, even the staff of the Street Administrative Office who were resting at home knew about it. The new director was enraged and injured more than 20 illegal merchants? He is also the hero who beat up the tiger at the Safari Park last year? This kind of gossip that was related to the leadership and even involved personal heroism often spread very quickly. Everyone was talking about it with relish. Even the people in the various communities would probably know about it in a few days.
Annex.
Party Secretary's office.
Zhou Yanru knocked on the door and entered. "Chief."
Dong Xuebing looked at her and asked. "Didn't I approve your leave? Did you go to the hospital for a check-up? "
"My back is just a little swollen. It's nothing."
"We still need to take a look. If we don't recover, how are we going to work?" Dong Xuebing asked. "What about Chief Yu and the rest's injuries?"
Zhou Yanru smiled and said, "Director, it's all thanks to you today. If it wasn't for you blocking those people, we probably wouldn't have been able to come back. Now, everyone is basically fine. Director Yu's ankle is a little sprained, and another staff member's hand and shoulder are scraped. They are currently receiving treatment in the hospital for tetanus. The one with the most serious injury is a police officer from the police station. His leg is scraped, and he is receiving treatment in the hospital.
Dong Xuebing nodded. "I will go to the hospital in the afternoon. How is the demolition?"
Zhou Yanru said, "Old Meng is staying there to take command. He's currently contacting the relevant departments to clean up the dozens of illegal buildings that have been demolished. All that's left is the clean-up work. As for the merchants and residents, their emotions aren't too stable yet. I heard from Director Meng that some people are clamoring to sue the district."
"Sue what?"
"Sue the Street Office for assault."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "It's reasonable for them to hurt us with sticks and knives. Why can't we defend ourselves? What's the reason? Sue them? Let them sue me. I still have scores to settle with them. They had hit my soldiers, and I will not let them off so easily. "
After Zhou Yanru left, Dong Xuebing called the Station Chief, Peng Gang.
"Old Peng, how are your injuries?"
"Sigh … it's nothing serious. Those punches felt like tickling me. Hahaha."
Dong Xuebing laughed. "That's good to hear. The incident at Liu Xiang Alley is not over, and we cannot let our comrades suffer in vain. Get someone to follow them. That Xue Gui and those hooligans, the boss of the tailor shop, and the breakfast stall. Anyway, don't let any of those who had hit our comrades off. Bring them back to the station and give them the maximum fines."
Peng Gang was also furious. "Yes, I understand. I will go now."
This time, Peng Gang did not ignore Dong Xuebing's orders. He was prepared to be pressured by the district. These arrogant merchants must be punished, or else, the law will not be as strict.
Dong Xuebing gave out orders one by one to wrap up this incident.
Because of what happened in the morning, the Street Office was more united. Even Peng Gang and Guo Mingfeng, who were loyal to the district, started to carry out Dong Xuebing's orders. Just now, Dong Xuebing had blocked the stick for them and protected everyone's safety. Now, it will be rude for them to talk about the differences between factions.
At the same time, the impact of this incident was getting bigger.
At the entrance of the District Party Committee's compound, more than a dozen angry merchants had blocked the entrance. Their faces were bruised, and they were shouting at the people inside.
"We will look for the District Leader!"
"Is there any law? Hitting our civilians? Arresting our civilians? "
"Guangming Street Office Chief had killed and hit our people! What kind of government officer is this?! "
"Call the District Leader out! Give us an explanation! "
"Fire that Dong Xuebing! If not, we will sue the City Government! If the City Government can't sue us, we will sue the Provincial Government! I don't believe there is no place for us to seek justice! "
"That's right! Remove him from his position! "
"Punish the culprit!"
The shouts of these people were loud, and almost everyone in the District Government Office building heard them. They finally understood that Guangming Street Office's illegal building clean-up had gone wrong!
… …
Afternoon.
Dong Xuebing was visiting the injured Street Office staff at the District's Second Hospital. Ring, ring, ring. An unknown number called his phone.
Dong Xuebing walked to the corridor and answered. "Hello, who is this?"
It was a middle-aged voice. "I'm Commission for Discipline Inspection's Wu Liang."
Wu Liang? Nanshan District Party Committee member, Commission for Discipline Inspection's Secretary?
Dong Xuebing immediately replied. "Hello, Secretary Wu."
Wu Liang replied in a low voice. "We had just received a report from the public. Chief Dong, come over to the Commission for Discipline Inspection."
Dong Xuebing's face changed. The Commission for Discipline Inspection is looking for me? What does this mean? They want to investigate me?
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing told Zhou Yanru that he will be leaving soon and drove out of the hospital. Zhou Yanru looked at him worriedly.
Commission for Discipline Inspection.
An office on the second floor.
Wu Liang was sitting behind his desk. He looked at Dong Xuebing with an angry expression. "The District's District Government Office building is blocked by the crowd. The crowd had reported that your Guangming Street Office had injured the residents during the clean-up of illegal buildings. Is this true?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "Yes, but …"
Wu Liang interrupted him. "Do you all have any discipline? Beating people up? How are you going to give orders? Do you know how much of an impact your actions have had on the district? Do you know what is the punishment for beating up the residents? "
Dong Xuebing frowned. "You might not know what happened. We … …"
Wu Liang interrupted him for the second time. "I don't need to know! I only know you all had injured the residents! Now, more than a dozen residents are blocking the entrance of the District Government Office building! This is a stab to our backs! "
Dong Xuebing was furious. "Secretary Wu, what you said is unfair. What is the situation at that time? Did the District ask anyone to investigate? That's right. I had beaten up the residents, but our Street Office had not done anything wrong! The District only saw them getting injured and us beating up the residents. The crowd came to complain, but did the District see our staff and staff getting injured? Do you see those common people you speak of beating our men with sticks and knives? Residents? These people are a bunch of criminals! "
Wu Liang replied angrily. "You have a bad temper."
"Secretary Wu, I am not trying to argue with you. I am only talking about this! If it's really an ordinary citizen, we guarantee that we won't retaliate even if they're beaten or scolded! But they are not! They are operating illegally! They are renting out illegal buildings! They are surrounding our Street Office staff with knives! We must avoid them! They are blocking the roads and not letting us leave! Now, we still have three of our comrades in the Second Hospital getting stitches! Did you all see this? Why are you all insisting that it is our responsibility?! Are they going to cut our staff with knives?! We still have to lift our clothes and let them cut us?! We still have to smile at them?! "
Wu Liang banged the table angrily. "There are many ways to settle this! Is there a need to beat up the residents?! "
It's easy for you to talk while you're standing!
Dong Xuebing was furious. "I might not be able to tell you what happened in one sentence. But many of the people in the area saw what happened. Our leaders and staff also saw what happened. If the District Government does not know, you can go down and ask! You can ask anyone! Secretary Wu! I only want to ask you one thing. The lives of the people are important! Are the lives of our Street Office staff not important?! If there are people holding knives and want to beat up the Discipline Inspection Commission staff! More than 30 people surrounded the Discipline Inspection Commission staff! I don't believe the Discipline Inspection Commission staff will let others do whatever they want! They will stretch their necks and wait for others to cut them! We are the same! Those are the soldiers I brought with me! I have the responsibility to protect all of you! "
Wu Liang was so angry that he laughed. "You're so eloquent?"
"Secretary Wu." Dong Xuebing looked at him. "What is the District doing? The criminals are using knives and sticks to hurt people! Why is it wrong for us to defend ourselves?! The District is not caring for our staff! Instead, he was helping those criminals to make decisions? Who are the laws in this country?! "
Wu Liang was not an unreasonable person. After hearing what Dong Xuebing said, he knew there must be something they did not understand. He looked at Dong Xuebing. "Tell me the details."
