Li Rui quickly told her about how he dug out the pot from the old house, found the gold bars, ingots, iron blocks, and the treasure map. Xu Da was very excited after hearing this and said, "Okay, I'll go! When will I go? I'm so bored that my head hurts. You gave me such an exciting and fun job. Not bad. "
As soon as she finished speaking, Duan Xiaoqian's voice came from the other end of the line, "What? Treasure hunt? I want to go too! "Xu Da scolded her," What are you going for?! You'd better stay in the ward and practice your basic skills. "
Duan Xiaoqian did not say anything, but Li Rui could imagine her resentful and unwilling expression. He laughed in his heart and said, "We haven't decided when we will go. Let's talk about it when I have time. I'll try to spare half a day on the first of May and we will go." Just treat it as a scenic tour to relax. "Xu Da said," Alright, I'll be in Qingyang for the next few days. Just give me a call before you go. "
After Li Rui finished the call, Ma Ruoxi and Zhang Yong finally walked out of the west wing. Liu Huiping and the others followed behind to see them off.
Li Rui walked to Liu Huiping and the others and said, "Liu Er Jie, let me tell you a piece of good news. The investigation team of the Municipal Public Security Bureau has found out the truth behind the death of the old village chief. The deputy director of the Donghe Subdistrict Police Station, Shi Lei, took the opportunity to attack the old village chief and injured him to show his power. In the end, the old village chief died on the spot. The old village chief did not steal the gun at all. Shi Lei wronged him and wanted to get rid of the blame. "
When Liu Huiping and the others heard the news, they were surprised, happy, sad, and painful. A few of the women were so excited that they cried on the spot.
Ma Ruoxi looked at Li Rui deeply. She opened her mouth and closed it again. She waited until they left the Liu family's house and were on the road outside before she asked, "Director Li, your good news came at the right time, didn't it? Of all times, you came when we were interviewing the Liu family. "Li Rui frowned slightly and said," Reporter Ma, what do you want to say? Just say it. " Ma Ruoxi said, "Well, I want to ask, is this an indirect show by your Qingyang City Public Security Bureau? So that you can show your righteous side? " Li Rui could not hold it in any longer and said angrily, "Reporter Ma, I really have to hand it to you. It's clearly a coincidence, but you can think of something else? Why is your heart so dark? Don't tell me that the government departments and leaders of Qingyang City can't do anything good? "
Ma Ruoxi could see that he was angry. She also seemed to realize that she had gone too far by questioning him many times. She pursed her lips and explained, "It's not that I have a dark heart. It's just that I've been cheated too many times when I went down to interview people, so I'm a little suspicious. It's not that I'm targeting you and the relevant departments of Qingyang City." When Li Rui heard this, he felt a little better. He said calmly, "Are the two of you going to the District Public Security Bureau for an interview? I can help you arrange it. " Ma Ruoxi said, "Yes, but before I leave, I want to personally check the environmental pollution in Dongshui Village and see what the root of the problem is."
Li Rui was about to nod in agreement when Zhang Yong suddenly covered his stomach and cried, "Ouch … Ouch …"
Ma Ruoxi and Li Rui turned to look at him. Ma Ruoxi asked, "What's wrong with you?" Zhang Yong smiled bitterly and said, "My stomach hurts. Maybe it's because I ate something unhygienic at that Chengdu snack shop at noon. I want to … have diarrhea." Ma Ruoxi frowned and said, "Why am I fine? How can you be more delicate than a woman like me? Then hurry up and find a bathroom. " Zhang Yong muttered, "We didn't eat the same kind of rice … Ouch, you're really strong. I can't hold it in anymore."
Li Rui said, "There's no bathroom in the village, only a latrine." Zhang Yong said, "The latrine is fine. Hurry up, I can't hold it in anymore." Li Rui held back his laughter and pointed to the village's courtyard. "There's a latrine in the village's courtyard. It's in the southwest corner. Hurry up." Zhang Yong nodded and said, "Ruoxi, why don't you go first? I'll find you after I'm done. You're going to the chemical plant, right? " Ma Ruoxi said, "Okay, then we won't wait for you. Actually, it's fine if you don't go. Just give me the camera. You can check your body later. If you don't feel well, you can stay in the village and rest. "
Zhang Yong nodded and took the camera off his neck and handed it to her. He turned and ran to the village's courtyard.
Li Rui and Ma Ruoxi didn't waste any time. They walked side by side to the Taifu Chemical Plant in the northwest of the village. On the way, both of them had their own thoughts and didn't speak.
When they reached the chemical plant's courtyard wall, Li Rui said, "Reporter Ma, I'll take you around the road that the village chief took me that day. That day, he took me to visit the environmental pollution site and was shot to death. "Ma Ruoxi was slightly moved. She nodded and said," Are you familiar with the village chief? " Li Rui took her to the chemical plant's east wall. He said while walking, "I can't say I'm familiar with him. When I came to Dongshui Village to investigate the environmental pollution, I was looking for him. When I saw him, he was holding a butcher's knife and was about to go out and kill the police and the plant's director. You may not know but his wife died of cancer because of environmental pollution. This year, his son also contracted cancer. The family can't live anymore … "
Ma Ruoxi's face changed. She opened her mouth and looked like she couldn't believe it.
The two chatted as they walked. Li Rui occasionally took the time to point out the details of the pollution on the ground. Soon, they arrived at the chemical plant's waste water pipe. At this time, the chemical plant had been shut down. Naturally, there wouldn't be any waste water discharged. However, the pipes and the ground that the waste water flowed through were tainted by chemicals. It was black and green and made people's scalp numb.
Li Rui pointed out the waste water area in the southeast direction to Ma Ruoxi. He then pointed to the northwest and said, "In order to save costs, the chemical plant secretly dug a lot of big holes in the river and buried the chemical waste in the holes. This action can be said to make people's hair stand up. Do you want to go and take a look? "Ma Ruoxi nodded without hesitation and said," Since I'm here, of course I want to go and take a look. " Li Rui looked down at her white high heels and said, "If you want to go down the river, you have to go down the slope in front of us. Is it convenient for you to wear high heels?" Ma Ruoxi didn't care and said, "It's convenient. You can lead the way."
Although Li Rui didn't like her, he didn't take this opportunity to make a fool of her. He didn't take her down the steep slope. Instead, he took her under the chemical plant's southern wall and walked upstream along the river for a while. Finally, they found a gentle slope with traces of people. It was convenient for Ma Ruoxi to walk down in high heels. Ma Ruoxi followed suit. She didn't know if it was a goat or someone who left a trail on the slope. She slowly walked down and finally smoothly went down the river.
Li Rui took her forward for a while and came to the big holes where the chemical waste was buried.
Ma Ruoxi looked at the big holes in front of her that were densely packed with chemical waste buckets. It was a shocking sight. She was stunned for a long time before she picked up the camera hanging around her neck and took a few photos of the scene. Then, she walked to a big hole filled with plastic waste buckets and took a close-up of the hole.
Li Rui didn't look at her. The scene of Liu Erkui bringing him here that day appeared in his mind. He felt a little sad. He also thought that his wife had passed away, his son had cancer, and he had been shot to death. How would the rest of the Liu family live?
"Ah …"
Just as his imagination was running wild, he suddenly heard a woman's scream. Then, a figure flashed and disappeared from his field of vision. He subconsciously looked up and was shocked. Ma Ruoxi, who was taking photos not far in front of him, had disappeared. He looked around, but there was no one. What happened? Was there a ghost in broad daylight? Why did she suddenly disappear?
"Reporter Ma, Reporter Ma, where did you go? Reporter Ma, Ma Ruoxi … "
He shouted as he walked to where Ma Ruoxi was standing. Before he reached her, he heard Ma Ruoxi's voice from not far away. "Ah … Help … I'm here. Director Li, help. Come and save me. I fell into a hole …"
Li Rui almost laughed out loud. He thought to himself, No way. How could a living person fall into a hole? Did she not look at where she was going? However, he was gloating. He quickly followed the sound and ran to the hole where the sound came from. He understood how Ma Ruoxi fell into it.
It was a newly dug and unused pit with a radius of five meters and a depth of two meters. Because it was located in a river, the walls of the pit were made of sand and gravel. Sand and gravel were not as sturdy as mud, especially at the edge of the pit. A light touch would cause it to collapse. Ma Ruoxi must have stepped on the edge of the pit, and the heel of her high heels fell into the pit due to the immense pressure from her weight, causing the sand and gravel layer to collapse. In an instant, it caused a mini landslide. About half a cubic meter of sand and gravel layer collapsed into the pit, and Ma Ruoxi, who was standing on top of it, did not escape. She fell into the pit with the sand and gravel.
Fortunately, the bottom of the hole was sand and not too deep. Ma Ruoxi didn't get hurt when she fell. At that moment, she had just adjusted her posture from lying on her back to sitting. Her legs were spread apart and her posture was a little inelegant. One of her high heels had also fallen off. However, at that moment, no one cared about whether her sitting posture was elegant or not.
Li Rui looked at her from above. He was relieved when he saw that she wasn't hurt, didn't cry, and didn't make a fuss. However, the slit in her clothes was even more conspicuous from above. He could even see the cup cover inside through the slit. Of course, Li Rui only found this scene by accident. He didn't take the opportunity to peek. He was always flirtatious and never obscene.
