Hearing what Li Jun said, Village Chief Ge's expression suddenly changed.
Ge Pingyan was able to compete with Shen Zhian for the victory of village chief, so he naturally had the ability to observe people's words and assess the situation. Just hearing this sentence made him react quickly.
Village Chief Ge immediately said: "Well, it seems something has changed. I'll go up and ask first, Jiayan, you and the other cadres will wait here."
"Village chief!" A village cadre said hurriedly: "Shall we go too?"
"We don't rule out danger. You stay here while I go!"
Afterwards, Ge Pingyan quickly ran over.
In just a few words, he created an image of a good village chief who takes the lead in the face of danger. And it is impossible for those village cadres to risk their lives just to flatter this little bit. After all, in this closed village, it is impossible.
There is no official career left.
"As expected of a veteran cadre, the village chief has a high level of consciousness!"
"Yes, the village chief is also an official. If you don't make decisions for the people as an official, why not go home and sell sweet potatoes!"
Ge Pingyan ran up to Li Jun. Just as the latter was about to say something, he was interrupted by the village chief.
"Li Jun," Ge Pingyan lowered his voice and said, "Has the fog spread?"
"No, no..."
"That's good." Ge Pingyan looked behind him and said, "If you have a big deal, swallow it in your stomach first. The village cadres are watching from behind. Later, don't say anything, just talk about this time
We just encountered some dangers, but there were no casualties."
"Village chief, but..."
"No buts! We can only talk about it later when only Jiayan and I are left! Come on!"
For Ge Pingyan, the current stability of the village is the first priority, and there must be no chaos. Just as the actor of his family in "A World Without Thieves" said, if people's hearts are broken, it will be difficult to lead the team.
After the patrol, he took Li Jun and others to the village cadres and said, "Everyone, it's okay. It's just a bit of a scare this time. One of the team members' porcelain dolls was completely gone. It's nothing serious."
When David heard this, he couldn't help but admire Village Chief Ge. In such a short time, he noticed that his porcelain doll was gone, and immediately used this matter to explain what Ge Pingyan said just now, "There is something to report." Fortunately for him,
What he said was not "something happened", otherwise it would be difficult to lie.
"How can the whole porcelain doll survive?" The village officials looked at David in surprise and said, "Is this the first time this child has participated in the patrol today? Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!"
"You are young and promising, you are young and you are promising! Village chief, this child needs to be trained well!"
In the past few years, in order to stabilize people's hearts, Village Chief Ge held several commendation meetings for "outstanding patrol members" in the village. Based on their deeds during patrols, he packaged them as heroes of the village one by one. The patrol members who died in battle were
He was called a "martyr". This indeed inspired the villagers to a great extent, and many people even regarded patrolling as a glorious and sacred mission. This also gained great support for the village chief's proposal to expand the patrolling age, and the villagers
The committee is also currently discussing this proposal.
The great prestige of village chief Ge Pingyan in the village is absolutely inseparable from his operations. Several village cadres behind him, including the village committee director, security director, women's director, etc., are all
They all suggested that David should be included as a member of the New Year Commendation Conference.
Next, there were some useless flatterers. After most of them left, Village Chief Ge said, "I still want to have a few private chats with a few young comrades." The village cadres left one after another.
Only village chief Ge Pingyan, his assistant (also his brother) Ge Jiayan, and nine members of the patrol team were left at the scene.
"You guys come with me!"
Then, the village chief took them into the village committee's office.
"Jiayan, go out and watch for me. If anyone is there, just come in and report something to me."
"Okay." Ge Jiayan was worthy of being Village Chief Ge's confidant, and walked out quickly without asking a single question.
Because there are no electric lights, the only things that can be illuminated in the village are flashlights (small daily necessities are provided by the temple), candles, matches, etc. In order to save money, the village chief only lit a few candles.
This makes the village chief's office look gloomy.
"Li Jun, please talk to me first." The village chief pointed to a few people behind him and said, "You go to the lounge next to you and sit for a while. I will ask you after I finish asking him what he said. Ru Ping, you take a candle.
past."
"Okay, dad... no, village chief." Li Ruping immediately went to get a candle.
As soon as David heard what Village Chief Ge said, he understood that the Village Chief wanted to judge the truth of their words by asking them separately.
"Okay, village chief."
David followed the others and came to the lounge next to the office.
In the past, this place was used to receive cadres from above, usually the village party secretary. Nanmi Village was administratively merged into other villages before, so it did not have its own village party secretary. After the fog closed the village, Chief Ge became the
became the highest leader of the village.
The door was closed, and the village chief and Li Jun's voices outside were not loud, so they couldn't hear clearly.
"Wait a minute, I don't want to be here!"
At this time, Li Ruping's sister Li Yanping suddenly shook her head and said: "One of us may be an extra 'person', an unknown thing from the fog! Isn't it dangerous for me to stay here?"
"Yan Ping!"
"Sister, I want to go out, I have to go out!"
"I want to go out too!" It was Su Wenqing who spoke this time. Obviously, Li Yanping was not the only one who had such an idea.
When they were about to walk out, a man came out and blocked the door.
The other party was none other than Li Dongshan, the oldest among those present!
"No one is allowed to go out!" Li Dongshan even closed the door, "Because there may be dangerous 'people' among us, we can't go out. Otherwise, if someone dies in the village, who will be responsible?
"
"Then what do you mean?"
"It depends on the village chief's decision!" Li Dongshan glanced at everyone and said: "The village chief's idea is very correct. If you ask one by one, you can clearly see whether there are any differences in our memories, which will make it easier to identify which one.
'People' exist. Everyone has to trust the village chief. Do you think the village chief didn't guess what happened? He takes turns questioning us all by himself, and he doesn't bear the risk?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This sentence immediately made everyone confused.
Chief Ge's prestige in the village is so high that when Li Dongshan said this, everyone was speechless.
"Yes," Li Ruping said, "I am the village chief's daughter-in-law. If he doesn't let me stay with you, I'm not doing anything special!"
This actually left Li Yanping speechless for a while.
"Then let the village chief arrange it." At this time, Jiang Shan, who was a full meter and nine heads tall, stood up. He was really too tall. When he stood up, he brought a lot of pressure to everyone: "I am absolutely
Unconditionally support Village Chief Ge!"
At this time, many people turned their attention to David. And David also found that no one wanted to sit with him.
Many people have begun to subconsciously regard him as the source of disaster, and even suspect that he is an unknown thing coming out of the fog.
The most important thing is... he doesn't even have a bamboo pole or a porcelain doll! This makes his suspicion even greater!
In fact, David himself was puzzled as to why he was the only one who remembered Captain Lin Tai?
After a while, Li Jun opened the door and said, "David, the village chief asked you to come over."
"good……"
David walked outside and reached the village chief's desk in a few steps.
"Village chief, I..."
"Wait a minute." The village chief stood up and said, "You saw Lin Tai, right?"
"Yes, it is."
"Lin Tai disappeared after noon. My wife was so anxious that she was jumping up and down. Tell me now... you saw him in the afternoon, and he also participated in tonight's patrol, right?"
"right……"
"Tell me what he's wearing."
Based on his memory, David described the appearance and color of Lin Tai's hat, coat, pants and shoes.
After finishing speaking, the village chief's expression changed greatly.
Before Lin Tai disappeared, he didn't go out at all because he had to go out on patrol every night, so he slept all the time in the morning. The outfit David mentioned was what he wore when he went out after eating at noon. But he
Just as he was getting dressed at home and getting ready to go out, when his wife turned around, Lin Tai suddenly disappeared.
Ge Pingyan never told anyone about Lin Tai's outfit! After all, everyone in the village knew Lin Tai, so if he asked them to help find him, there was no need to mention his clothes!
There is no way David knew the outfit Lin Tai was wearing!
