District 9

late at night.

Most of the "protesting" people in Chongdu, Yuanshan, and Taoli have gone back to their homes, leaving only a small number of key members who are still besieging functional departments overnight.

These people did not leave, but even more excitedly "protested". There are two main reasons. First, after Meng Xi took office, he adopted a wait-and-see attitude towards strikes and protests in various regions. He did not use the position of the Military and Political Investigation Bureau to request the General Administration of Police and the army to come forward to suppress them. This has caused many leading public representatives to instinctively feel that their side has taken the initiative, and the government has nothing to do about such large-scale mass incidents for the time being. Second, the Tianfu Group that Wanfu refers to has not yet been punished, and the Police General Administration has not paid the price for this mass incident. The demands of "some people" and "some forces within the Sichuan government" have not yet been met. So naturally the trouble will continue and the intensity will be increased.

As a result, the scale and influence of mass incidents are also developing into an even more uncontrollable state.

In Luhuai District 7, Li Bokang has been paying attention to the internal situation of Sichuan Mansion during this period. He originally thought that the internal conflicts caused by arson cases and official disciplinary violations would soon attract Qin Yu's attention, and then the Sichuan Army Headquarters would definitely use thunderous measures. But what surprised him was that the riots in various areas of Sichuan were getting more and more serious, but Qin Yu seemed to be asleep and ignored the matter, and even took the time to hold a wedding for the old cat.

This series of operations not only did not make Li Bokang happy, but he was also a little upset.

Why are you upset?

Because the government does not confront the people head-on and take the initiative, Li Bokang's subsequent arrangements will not be able to be carried out.

In the office, Li Bokang was smoking a cigarette and racking his brains to envision the subsequent development of the incident.

…

At around one o'clock in the morning, light snow began to fall in the city.

The streets were deserted, with only rats looking for food and nighttime work trucks passing by from time to time.

At the main entrance of the Police Headquarters, forty or fifty people were huddled in the tents they brought, wrapped in military coats, shivering from the cold, but still "fighting the cold and asking for help."

In the tent at the forefront, a middle-aged man from Taoli Life Village was sitting cross-legged on a thick quilt and drinking white wine.

"Lao Xu, how far do you think this matter is?" A man who was drinking with him asked softly. He came from a distant mountain and has been here for two days.

"Whenever we clean up the Tianfu Group and give an explanation, it will be over." The middle-aged man curled his lips and said.

"Do you think we can compromise on this? Damn it, I'm always afraid that things will get too big and we won't be able to end it in the end." The man was a little worried and lowered his voice and said: "Don't forget, when Commander Qin came to the city, what happened? I have killed so many troublemakers."

"There is no comparison between now and before." The middle-aged man still said thoughtfully: "Why? I think back then, Commander Qin was attacking the country. Even if the country collapsed and became a wasteland, then in the end it would be a big deal to rebuild. After the victory, On the territory, everything starts all over again. But is it the same now? Now that Commander Qin is in control, if he engages in extermination, who will he hit? Isn't it him? Who would be so stupid to do such a thing? Brother, conquering a country and holding it are two different things. One is offense and the other is management. If you want to convince the public and develop, you can't make trouble."

"You have to be literate. What you say is more thorough than the rest of us." The man replied with admiration.

That is, Lao Xu, who had attended junior high school for a few days, continued in a low voice: "The Songjiang clique is too powerful, and it is not good for development. Families from all over the world want to fight against the Songjiang clique, which is not a bad thing for political leaders. Ah! Taking advantage of the huge public response, we can take advantage of the trend and remove some people from the Songjiang Clan to balance internal policies. Wouldn’t this kill two birds with one stone?"

"That makes sense."

"Oh, you and I both represent the local family, but we can't get involved in the affairs of the upper class." The middle-aged man continued: "What's our benefit? It's that we get money after doing this. It’s just a way to vent your anger.”

"That's right!" The man agreed.

"Okay, let's go to bed after drinking this."

"Okay, done."

After the two chatted, they drank from the wine glasses in one gulp.

After a while, the man from the distant mountains returned to his tent, and the middle-aged man named Lao Xu changed his mobile phone card and sent a text message: "Hurry up and send money! This is more than 30 below zero." Du, we all sleep outside, and many people don’t want to do it anymore.”

After sending the text message, Lao Xu wrapped himself in a quilt and was about to go to bed.

“The Police General Administration is unfair in enforcing the law!”

"Damn it, Umbrella Unit, smash it!"

"...!"

Just as Lao Xu closed his eyes, he heard fierce shouting coming from the backyard of the Police Headquarters.

The noisy shouting of slogans reached the "tent area" very clearly. Many people who were already preparing to sleep crawled out to see what was going on.

After Lao Xu got up, he walked out of the tent wearing a military coat, turned around and asked, "What's going on?"

"I don't know. It seems that there were other protestors behind the police headquarters, and they seemed to be arguing."

"Where are they from?"

"Who knows, we didn't even watch."

"Let's go over and have a look."

Lao Xu greeted everyone and ran towards the backyard of the Police Headquarters with great strides.

Everyone had just run halfway when they suddenly heard gunshots coming from the courtyard of the Police Headquarters. Lao Xu felt that something was wrong. He leaned against the wall and looked into the courtyard. He saw that many police officers had gathered, all of them fully armed and carrying long guns.

"What's going on?"

"Yeah, didn't you say we would just protest and not cause trouble?"

"Did that group start fighting with the police?"

"...!"

Everyone was confused and ran quickly to the street next to the backyard of the Police Headquarters. They saw with their own eyes that about thirty protesters wearing the same armbands as themselves were holding natural flasks and cylinders and throwing them wildly into the backyard of the General Administration.

In the backyard, two bungalows were already on fire.

Lao Xu looked at the scene in front of him, with goosebumps all over his body. He immediately waved his hands and shouted: "Let's go, hurry up! Damn it, something big is going to happen. Soon the police will think that we are with them." .”

As soon as he finished speaking, a man wearing a hat and a triangular scarf waved his hands and shouted at Lao Xu: "Come on, brothers, let's do it together! Throw bottles in and burn them to death."

When Lao Xu heard this, he cursed cnm secretly, then turned around and ran away: "Stop packing the tent, go first, go first, hurry up!"

When the man in the triangle scarf saw Lao Xu and others trying to run, he immediately shouted: "The police are out, let's run together with the brothers who come from the front door!"

When Lao Xu heard the sound, he turned around and cursed angrily: "Which fucking village are you from?!"

There was a sinister look in the eyes of the man in the triangle scarf, and he cursed in a low voice: "... Damn it, I haven't done a normal job since I came to Sichuan Mansion."
