Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 410 Shake people

"The brigade headquarters has a phone number," Lin Zhiqiu replied. "It was available last month, but the cadres were afraid of trouble, so they kept it a secret from everyone."

Well, how did you know something that the village cadres were hiding? But let's ask about this later when we take notes. Wang Yu took a deep breath, "Okay, take a break, you guys have a good rest, we'll go back tomorrow morning."

It’s better not to travel overnight as we are unfamiliar with the place and it’s unsafe.

Over at the Construction Brigade, the police who had spent the entire afternoon searching for the educated youth were furious. They directly arrested all the villagers who had participated in today's incident, tied their hands behind their backs, and locked them up in the brigade headquarters.

After Huang Dayun, who sent the reporter back in the afternoon, reported the specific situation to the station, all the police officers in the commune except the civilian police officers came to the Construction Brigade. They drove a minibus directly over.

The commune had three police stations, and for the first time, all the people were gathered together in this way. Everyone ate the dry food they brought with them and looked for places to hide people in the brigade.

The woodshed, the cellar, and even the empty cowshed on Yaoer Mountain were turned upside down by them.

He Chongwen and Chen Jinghan followed the police comrades everywhere with serious expressions.

"This is crazy. Are these people in the construction team trying to kill themselves? How dare they arrest so many educated youth? It's totally lawless. Aren't they afraid that something unexpected will happen and the whole team will be in trouble?" He Chongwen only found out that something had happened to the educated youth when the police came and knocked on the door looking for someone. He couldn't believe it at first. After all, it wasn't just one or two people who were in trouble, but 14 people.

Fortunately, he had a bad feeling in the afternoon and did not go out.

Chen Jinghan frowned. He felt that it was not enough to rely on just a few policemen to find people. He wanted to find someone to help. "What are they afraid of? If they don't detain all the educated youth and the reporters, then the ugly things they did in the past will be exposed, and they will still be in trouble. If Lin Zhiqiu hadn't called the police today, who knows what would happen now? Even the few of us would be caught by them and dealt with together."

Lawless, they were gambling, gambling on the time difference, but they were just unlucky.

He Chongwen sighed, "I really..." Such a thing never happened in his previous life.

However, the construction team had the ultimate villain Yi Chi. Except for a few families, everyone else suffered within a few years. Some died, some were disabled, and none of them had a good ending.

So it won't end well anyway, why are they doing this?

He Chongwen thought angrily, and then thought of Cheng Zitao, his heart suddenly choked, that's right, whether there is a good ending or not, doesn't it still depend on how hard you work! Some beasts are lucky, stepping on the flesh and blood of others to rise step by step, don't they still live a glamorous life?

Chen Jinghan suddenly reached out and grabbed the policeman who was passing by, "Comrade, can I ask if the construction team has a phone number?"

"Yes, what's wrong? Do you want to make a phone call now?" They came here because they received a call from the police, and they also took out the phone when they were searching things earlier.

"Excuse me, I want to talk to your leader about something. I wonder if it is convenient now?" Chen Jinghan felt that no time could be wasted. It would be better to send more people to find the missing educated youth. A second late could lead to an accident. Human lives are at stake.

"Then come with me." The young policeman did not refuse. After all, they had seen Chen Jinghan and the other person following them in and out looking for someone everywhere. Everyone was looking for someone, and maybe this educated youth had some other ways, as long as they could find the person.

Chen Jinghan followed the police to find the leader of the Ministry of Public Security. This elderly man, but in high spirits, was sitting on the threshold of the brigade headquarters with a listless Zhuang Shouren kneeling in front of him and being questioned.

"Chief, this educated youth wants to borrow the phone." The arrival of the two interrupted their work, and the policeman who led the way began to explain.

"Chen Jinghan?" The director looked at the person in front of him and suddenly called out his name.

Chen Jinghan stared in surprise, "Do you know me?"

The old man chuckled and waved to Chen Jinghan. He stood up first and walked into the office behind him. "Take the person back first and continue later."

"Yes!" The policeman who was taking the statement agreed, then grabbed Zhuang Shouren by the collar and walked towards the next room.

Chen Jinghan followed the old man into the house, and the policeman who led the way went forward to close the door and stood outside the door as a guard.

"Sit down. Do you want to call the army to borrow someone?" The old policeman sat down, took two sips from the teacup, and then said, "I forgot to tell you, I was arranged by your uncle Jiang, so I know you."

"Is it because of what happened to Lin Anna last time?" Chen Jinghan knew it as soon as she heard that it was arranged by Uncle Jiang. She didn't know how the case was handled later. How come even the director of the town's Public Security Bureau has been replaced?

"Lin Anna, yes, it's related to her too. Let's not talk about this today. If you want to borrow someone from the army, here's the phone number." The old man had thought about asking the army for help, but he had just arrived and his every move was being watched by others. If he had too much contact with the army, it would be easy for others to notice something, so he didn't take the initiative to make the call.

Chen Jinghan took the phone and asked, "Do you think we can find someone?"

"Of course you can. Just borrow more people. There's strength in numbers." The old man laughed and went out with the teacup.

Chen Jinghan pursed her lips, then dialed the number quickly to contact her father's old subordinates.

The call was connected quickly, and Chen Jinghan didn't waste any time. He directly explained his situation to the other party and said frankly that he hoped the other party could arrange more people to come and help find the person.

"Don't worry, nephew. I'll arrange it right away." After hearing what he said, the person on the other end of the phone realized the seriousness of the matter. He just said that and went out to start making arrangements.

Half an hour later, three large trucks came out from the army side and rumbled towards the construction team.

After Chen Jinghan hung up the phone, she came out and said to the old policeman standing outside, "It's settled."

The old man reached out and patted his shoulder. "Go ahead. You've been busy for a while. Go back and have a rest. Eat something. When they arrive, we'll go into the mountains."

"Okay." Chen Jinghan nodded, then strode away.

The villagers who were detained in the next room all hung their heads, except for Old Mrs. Zhuang, who pursed her lips and looked up. Even under the gaze of the police, she clenched her teeth and said nothing.

I don't know what she is insisting on. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this matter is a foregone conclusion, so there is no need to struggle.
