Zhao Fu walked forward along the black line. He walked for more than ten meters before he found the end of the black line. It was a pile of weeds as tall as half a man. One of the weeds clearly showed signs of being crushed. There were also found on the ground.
After seeing a few shallow footprints, Zhao Fu squatted down and stretched out his hand to measure the footprints: "The footprints are relatively large, the size should be above forty, and they should be the footprints of a man."
"What did you find?" Ma Xiaoyao walked over.
"Deputy County Magistrate Ma, the fuse of the explosive was lit from here. The length of the fuse is about ten meters." Zhao Fu pointed to several footprints on the ground: "These are left by the suspect. Preliminary inference is that the suspect should be a man.
The suspect was probably hiding in the weeds just now. He secretly lit the fuse while no one was paying attention, and then escaped... There are a lot of weeds around, and the suspect escaped by relying on the cover of the weeds... Xiao Zhang, please lead a few people to search
Look around!" It had been half an hour since the explosive exploded, and the suspect must have disappeared. However, out of professional ethics, Zhao Fu still asked a few of his men to search the surrounding area.
"Yes!" A young policeman led five or six people and began to search the surrounding weeds.
"Can the suspect be caught?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"There are some difficulties...the suspect left too few clues..." Zhao Fu said in embarrassment.
Ma Xiaoyao pondered for a moment: "Is it possible... that it was those workers who did it?"
"Uh... Deputy County Magistrate Ma, do you doubt those workers?" Zhao Fu was stunned for a moment.
"I'm just suspicious." Ma Xiaoyao glanced at the footprints on the ground: "Let everyone come over and compare it with the footprints on the ground."
Zhao Fu nodded, called all the workers over, and began to compare them with the shoe prints on the ground... Half an hour later, the results came out. The footprints on the ground had nothing to do with the workers.
Seeing that the workers were cleared of suspicion, the contractor immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He had hired the workers. If something happened, he would be responsible.
"Check!" Ma Xiaoyao's face was gloomy and scary: "Check carefully for me, we must catch the person who installed the explosives!"
"Yes!" Zhao Fu nodded.
"Starting from today, a few police officers will be left to guard the construction site in shifts. There will be police guards during the day and night." Ma Xiaoyao said: "Tell the police on duty that I will not treat them badly until the highway is completed."
, I will give them a bonus."
"Yes, I will immediately arrange for police to guard the construction site." Zhao Fu responded.
After Zhao Fu surveyed the scene, he led his men to leave. Before leaving, he left five policemen to guard the construction site. Initially, the five policemen were a little unhappy, but later they heard that bonuses would be given to the five policemen.
Immediately, there were no complaints anymore. The police are also human beings and need to be clothed and fed. If they can be given more bonuses, their lives can be better.
"Clean up all the weeds within a hundred meters of me!" Ma Xiaoyao ordered.
"Yes." The foreman immediately led a group of workers to clear the weeds.
Looking at the mess on the ground, Ma Xiaoyao felt very annoyed. Fortunately, the area destroyed by the explosion was not very large, and it could be repaired in a few days.
"Crunch..."
A van suddenly stopped at the construction site, the door opened, and two people got out, a man and a woman. The man held a camera on his shoulder, and the woman held a microphone in her hand. After the man got out of the car, he held the camera and started filming.
Ma Xiaoyao frowned and strode over: "What do you do!"
"We are reporters from the TV station." The woman said: "I received a report that the highway that was just built suddenly collapsed. It seems that someone cut corners... So I came to the scene to investigate..." This woman obviously did not know Ma Xiaoyao, but in fact she didn't know him.
No wonder, Ma Xiaoyao has just been the deputy county magistrate for a short time, and he doesn't show up much. It's understandable that TV reporters don't recognize him.
"It's nothing!" Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "There is no collapse here at all, you should leave quickly." As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao reached out to block the camera on the man's shoulder: "Don't take random pictures, some things here are confidential
It cannot be made public."
"You said there is no collapse here?" The woman pointed at a pile of ruins opposite: "What is that!"
Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "What it is, you don't have to worry about it. Now please leave immediately."
"We will not leave until the matter is investigated clearly..." The woman glanced around, then walked towards a worker: "Friend, can I interview you... I heard that something happened here
Collapse incident..."
"I asked you to get out of here, didn't you hear?" Ma Xiaoyao walked over and reached out to grab the microphone in the woman's hand.
"Let go!" The woman glared: "I am a reporter and I have the right to interview! Let go now!"
At this time, the man carrying the camera also came over and glared at Ma Xiaoyao: "Let go, we have the freedom to conduct interviews, and no one can stop us!"
Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched uncontrollably. He was really angry at the moment and wanted to hit someone... Ma Xiaoyao took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in an indifferent tone: "You have the freedom to interview
and power, but we also have the right not to accept interviews..." At this point, Ma Xiaoyao turned to look at the workers who were working: "Are you willing to be interviewed!"
"I don't want to!" the contractor was the first to say.
"I don't want to!"
"We don't have time for interviews!"
"Hurry up and don't delay our work!"
…
The workers said dissatisfied.
Ma Xiaoyao curled his lips and said to the woman: "Did you see that? No one is willing to accept your interview. Can you leave now?"
"You..." The woman's face turned blue.
"I don't have time to chat with you here. Let me say it one last time: please leave immediately!" Ma Xiaoyao said with a serious face.
"What if we don't leave!" the woman snorted.
Ma Xiaoyao said with a crooked mouth: "Comrade reporters, you have seriously hindered the workers' work. If you still don't leave, I can only... force you to leave. Have you seen the policemen next to you? If you don't do it again,
If you don't leave, I'll ask the police to send you away."
"You are threatening us!" the woman said angrily.
"Threat?" Ma Xiaoyao snorted coldly: "Don't think that I am a fool and easy to fool. Are you two here for an interview? You are obviously here to cause trouble!"
"What are you looking for? We are here to interview and investigate..." the woman said quibly.
"Are you leaving or not?" Ma Xiaoyao sounded a little impatient.
"We won't leave!" The woman puffed up her chest and said, "We will never leave until we find out the truth of the matter!"
The corner of Ma Xiaoyao's mouth twitched: "You guys are so talented..." As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao took out his mobile phone and dialed a number: "Secretary Cheng, I have something to report to you...I am currently at the construction site.
...There are two reporters from the TV station here, they are just messing around... Well, okay, I understand." After Ma Xiaoyao hung up the phone, he stopped talking to the two reporters from the TV station.
"Buzz buzz..."
After a while, the cell phone in the woman's pocket vibrated. The woman took out her cell phone and saw that it was the station director. She hurriedly connected the phone: "Director... yes, I am currently building a highway construction site...
...Well, I received a report that the highway had collapsed due to cutting corners, so I came over to take a look...No, it really collapsed here...I...Okay, I'll go back right away." The woman hung up the phone and said deeply
He took a deep look at Ma Xiaoyao, and then left with the man carrying the camera.
Looking at the leaving van, Ma Xiaoyao slowly narrowed his eyes.
First, someone threw nails on the highway, causing a large truck transporting cement and sand to have a punctured tire and roll over. Then someone used explosives to blow up the highway. Then someone reported to the TV station that the highway was cutting corners and causing the collapse... these few things
What happened is too much of a coincidence, right?
Throwing nails, using explosives, reporting... could these things be done by one person? Ma Xiaoyao frowned slowly. If it was really done by one person? What is the purpose of this person? Is it aimed at himself?
?
At this moment, Ma Xiaoyao became suspicious, very suspicious.
…
Office of the Executive Deputy County Magistrate.
Li Ming laughed loudly and pointed at Haten: "You... you are so bad... you actually used explosives to blow up the highway and even reported it to the TV reporter, saying that cutting corners on the highway caused the collapse...
I’m really impressed by you.”
"There was an accident in the plan." Ha Teng shook his head: "When the TV reporter rushed over, Ma Xiaoyao happened to be at the scene and drove the reporter away... Sigh... What a waste of an interview. I originally wanted the reporter to
The exposure will make Ma Xiaoyao's reputation stink, but who would have thought that something unexpected would happen."
Li Ming waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. Although the TV reporter was driven away by Ma Xiaoyao, the TV station can still expose the matter."
Haten was stunned: "Leader, what do you mean..."
"Hehe..." Li Ming chuckled and said, "I will say hello to the TV station and ask them to report the highway collapse. The main point is around one thing... Why did the highway collapse suddenly? It is probably because of cutting corners.
As long as the news is broadcast, it will be fun to watch."
"Uh..." Haten hesitated: "Will the TV station agree to report this matter?"
"I came forward in person, but I don't believe that the director of the TV station dares not to give me face." Li Ming said confidently.
…
night.
Ma Xiaoyao dragged his exhausted body back to his residence. He had to deal with too many things today, which made Ma Xiaoyao exhausted.
"Buzz buzz..."
The cell phone on the coffee table vibrated.
Ma Xiaoyao picked up the phone casually, without looking at the caller ID, and directly connected: "Hello."
"Xiaoyao...where are you?" Wang Aiqin's anxious voice came from the mobile phone.
"Oh, I just returned to the Government Family Home, what happened? Is there anything wrong?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"Hurry up and turn on the TV and watch today's news." Wang Aiqin said anxiously. Zhao Fu walked along the black line and walked for more than ten meters before he found the end of the black line. It was a pile of weeds as tall as half a person.
There was a patch of weeds that clearly showed traces of being crushed, and a few shallow footprints were also found on the ground. Zhao Fu squatted down and stretched out his hand to measure the footprints: "The footprints are relatively large, and they should be over forty in size."
, it should be a man’s footprints.”
