pinnacle of power

Hearing Zhang Yichen's report, Liu Qingyu's face darkened immediately, and his voice seemed to be filled with ice: "What's going on? Why did the family of three commit suicide?"

Zhang Yichen said with a wry smile: "It is said that it is because of the conflicts and disputes caused by the forced demolition. The family originally lived in a shantytown in the old urban area. Later, for some reason, their house was demolished, and their youngest son was also smashed on the ground during the demolition." Died in the house, the family of three had no way to appeal, and the eldest daughter was also raped by a strong woman during the appeal, and finally hanged herself. Finally, the couple took the old lady in her 70s and served her directly in front of the Shangcheng district government. Pesticide committed suicide. After the suicide, the Shangcheng district government actually intended to take the person away and cremated him directly. The common people were surrounded. Liao Zhicai, the executive deputy mayor, has gone to deal with it in person, and Dong Zhihao, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, has also gone there, but he has been talking with the masses for two hours, and there has been no result. Secretary Shen Let me call you and let me know about it."

Liu Qingyu's expression became even more gloomy when he heard the words, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Well, I see, I'll rush over right away."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Qingyu looked at Du Yufeng and said, "Governor Du, I planned to have a detailed chat with you today about my more thoughts on this package of financial plans, but there is something wrong with Luming City. It's a big deal, I have to go back and deal with it."

Du Yufeng smiled slightly: "Well, I also heard a little bit of the conversation between you, and you are very correct in handling the matter of the financial management plan. We can communicate on the phone later, but the matter of Luming City must be discussed. Solve it immediately. Comrade Liu Qingyu, please remember that no matter what happens to the common people, it is no small matter at any time. We must solve the problem for the common people as soon as possible. This time, a family of three died tragically in the district government This matter is definitely not a trivial matter, it must be handled with care, and you must not act hastily, you must give an explanation to the common people!"

Hearing Governor Du's instructions, Liu Qingyu nodded with a serious expression: "Governor Du, don't worry, I will handle this matter well."

After walking out of Du Yufeng's office, Liu Qingyu said directly to Cheng Tieniu: "Tie Niu, go directly to the gate of the Shangcheng district government."

Cheng Tieniu was taken aback, because according to the itinerary plan this time, Liu Qingyu planned to go to Du Yufeng's house tonight to have an in-depth report and explanation on the financial management plan with Du Yufeng, but it is only after 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Qing Yucai had just arrived at the provincial government and had to go back within half an hour, which surprised him, but Tieniu didn't ask any more questions, and drove directly to the gate of the Shangcheng district government.

When the car arrived at the gate of the Shangcheng District Government, Liu Qingyu's face became extremely gloomy. At this moment, hundreds of ordinary people gathered at the gate of the Shangcheng District Government. A number of police cars on the scene had been overturned to the ground. The windows had already been smashed. Although there were dozens of police officers maintaining order at the scene, these police officers could only stand in two rows, temporarily separating the crowd from the gate of the district government, and did not do other things for the time being. .

Between the police and ordinary people, there were three corpses lying on the ground, their bodies already stiff. They were two middle-aged couples in their 40s and an old lady in her 70s.Next to them were three bottles of pesticides.Next to the pesticide, there was a banner with someone curled up in a ball. The three of them were all wearing white filial piety. On the filial piety, there seemed to be a bloody and miserable big injustice written in bright red blood!In the arms of the middle-aged couple, each of them held an urn, and the urn held in the man's arms was pasted with a very cute photo of a seven or eight-year-old boy. Tong looks very sunny, with a happy and bright smile on the corner of his mouth.And on the urn of the middle-aged woman was a photo of a young and beautiful girl. The girl looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with an oval face and a long white dress. Her dimples are even more charming.

However, these two sunny children have become a handful of ashes in the urn in the arms of their parents who died tragically.

When Liu Qingyu saw the scene in front of him, he suddenly felt his soul was deeply touched.

The sunny boy with a happy smile, the young, beautiful, pure and lovely girl, the middle-aged couple with blood on the corners of their mouths lying dead on the street, the two urns exuding indifference, and the man with full hair Everything about the silver-haired old lady who refused to close her eyes until she died, and whose body was written with injustice in red, made Liu Qingyu feel the burning pain on his face, and felt that his heart was bleeding at this moment.

Why?Why would someone take such an extreme way to end their life at the door of the district government in today's sunny and harmonious society? What is the problem?Now that the country is vigorously promoting the construction of a socialist legal system, why does such a thing happen at this time?Is it because the common people create things out of nothing and make trouble for no reason, or are there some departments and officials who are ungrateful, act recklessly, run amok, and protect each other, so that the common people have no way to appeal, but they are not protected when they are justified?

At this moment, Liu Qingyu also saw that not far from the crowd, Liao Zhicai, the executive deputy mayor, and Dong Zhihao, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, were talking with seven or eight people who looked like relatives of the deceased in white filial piety. The relatives were obviously very emotional, they seemed to disagree with Liao Zhicai and Dong Zhihao's words and shook their heads frequently.

At this moment, someone in the crowd recognized Liu Qingyu, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Mayor Liu is here, Mayor Liu is here, Mayor Liu, please, please help Li The elder three and his family of five are in charge. The death of their family was really terrible, and the Shangcheng District Government of Luming City even took away the bodies of the three members of their family at the scene and cremated them directly. What did they do? It’s really too much, it’s nothing more than demolishing other people’s houses, killing their son and killing their daughter, the actions of the Shangcheng district government are simply outraged by both humans and gods, and the heavens shed tears!”

Liu Qingyu just nodded solemnly when he heard the words, and waved to Liao Zhicai and Dong Zhihao: "Comrades Liao Zhicai and Dong Zhihao, come here first, and tell me about the situation at the scene. How did you deal with it? What? Why hasn't this matter been dealt with yet?"

Liao Zhicai and Dong Zhihao walked to Liu Qingyu's side, Liao Zhicai said in a low voice: "Mayor Liu, this matter is not suitable to be discussed here, I think we should find a place to have a good chat first?"

Liu Qingyu frowned directly, and said with a gloomy face: "Comrade Liao Zhicai, as party members and cadres, we must act upright, sit upright, and tell others everything. Tell me, what are you doing?" It was shared with the relatives of the deceased, why hasn't the matter been settled yet?"

Hearing that Liu Qingyu didn't give him any face at all, and wanted him to directly say the content of the conversation just now, Liao Zhicai couldn't help but become gloomy, his eyes shrank slightly, and he was full of dissatisfaction with Liu Qingyu, but he could only say The content of the conversation with the family of the deceased just now: "Mayor Liu, Secretary Dong and I just talked with the family of the deceased, hoping that they can take the three deceased back for cremation as soon as possible, and the relevant expenses will be borne by the Shangcheng District Government. We hope they can accept this with peace of mind."

Hearing the content of the conversation between Liao Zhicai and Dong Zhihao, Liu Qingyu couldn't help but his face darkened, and asked, "How did the family of the deceased respond?"

Liao Zhicai said with a wry smile, "The family of the deceased did not agree. They made several demands, but these demands cannot be fulfilled by the Shangcheng district government for the time being."

Liu Qingyu frowned suddenly: "What kind of request did the family of the deceased put forward? Why can't the Shangcheng district government do it?"

Liao Zhicai said: "The family members of the deceased demanded to investigate who forcibly demolished their house, causing their son to be crushed to death in the house. They demanded to find out who raped their daughter in the district government, causing other The daughter committed suicide by jumping directly from the district government building, and the family of the deceased also demanded that the district government must publicly apologize to the deceased and provide compensation. But for all these, the Shangcheng district government has some difficulties, and I am afraid that they cannot agree to their request.”

Although Liao Zhicai's words were relatively cryptic, Liu Qingyu could tell that Liao Zhicai's meaning was very clear, that is, it was impossible for the Shangcheng District Government of Luming City to publicly apologize to ordinary people, because once an apology was made, it would mean that they would be in trouble throughout the entire country. There is responsibility in the incident, which is something that the Shangcheng district government is unlikely to do, and the Shangcheng district government has never confirmed and admitted that the deceased's daughter was raped by a woman, so they also It is impossible to admit and approve this matter. Although the woman did commit suicide by jumping from the Shangcheng district government building, the explanation of the cause of suicide by the district government is completely different from that of the deceased's family.

After listening to Liao Zhicai's explanation, Liu Qingyu's face became extremely gloomy.

At this time, Dong Zhihao said: "Mayor Liu, Luming City is now actively bidding for the establishment of a national civilized city. At this time, everything should be focused on the overall situation. If this kind of thing can be suppressed, try to suppress it as much as possible. It is not suitable to deal with it with great fanfare. Otherwise, once the civilized city bid fails, all the manpower and material resources we have spent before will be in vain.”
