Rebirth: Official Fortune Prosperity

Liu Fusheng remained silent, but Zhou Xiaozhe asked, "Officer Shen, the situation you described cannot happen, right? The police must have sufficient evidence to arrest the suspect. Could it be that they let him go unpunished due to pressure from the villagers?"

Shen Qingqing smiled bitterly and said, "The villagers of Hong Village only believe in their clan rules. They think that it is not illegal to bring back some private goods when fishing at sea, because it does not cause harm to third parties. It is their way of survival, or their main way of making money."

"Of course the police can enforce the law strictly, or call for support, dispatch special police forces, and forcibly take people away, but the price to pay is too high. If Hongcun is set on fire and it turns into a mass incident, think about it, how many police forces will be needed to maintain order? How much social and even international impact will it cause? The government officials in Jiangtou City know very well that there is no benefit in doing so. If things get out of hand, they will lose their jobs."

Zhou Xiaozhe frowned and said, "I can understand what Officer Shen meant, but the law is sacred and cannot be violated. A crime is a crime. There is no reason for it to go unpunished. Even if the whole village resists the law, it is not a reason for the police to just sit back and do nothing."

Shen Qingqing smiled helplessly. When she just graduated, her ideas were even more radical than Zhou Xiaozhe's. Right was right, wrong was wrong, and she could not tolerate any sand in her eyes. However, after working for many years, she found that police officers from all over the country had their own difficulties in handling cases, and it was extremely difficult to implement the law in every village at the grassroots level.

The clan consciousness in eastern Guangdong Province is extremely strong, and there are also various problems in other places. Sometimes, in order to maintain social stability, economic development, people's safety and happiness, the government has to make certain compromises and concessions.

Shen Qingqing changed the subject and said, "Secretary Liu, the situation we are facing today may be even more sensitive than it was then. If our enemies are all the villagers of Hong Village, then it will be difficult to successfully capture Hong Haotian."

At this point, the vehicle had slowly stopped.

Hong Chengli got out of the luxury car and turned to greet the police car and Liu Fusheng's vehicle.

Qin Guang and the police officers from the special task force of the Ministry of Public Security got out of the car one after another.

Hong Chengli smiled and said, "Team Leader Qin, I'm sorry, the street ahead is very narrow and it's difficult for vehicles to pass. We'd better walk forward."

Qin Guang asked: "How far is it?"

Hong Chengli pointed to the alley and said, "Hong Haotian's house is in the middle of the alley, about three or four hundred meters away. We'll be there soon."

Liu Fusheng, Zhou Xiaozhe and Shen Qingqing also walked up to Hong Chengli.

Liu Fusheng smiled and said, "It's only three or four hundred meters, we can just walk there."

Qin Guang frowned and lowered his voice to Liu Fusheng, "I think it would be better to drive the car to Hong Haotian's door. If the villagers of Hong Village see us taking Hong Haotian away, I'm afraid some unnecessary conflicts will break out."

Liu Fusheng said: "Village Chief Hong has made this arrangement, so we should respect his opinion. I believe that as the clan leader, he is capable of controlling the villagers of Hong Village."

Qin Guang thought about it and realized that without Hong Chengli's help, they would not be able to take Hong Haotian away. At this point, they could only follow Hong Chengli's arrangements.

As everyone walked forward, Zhou Xiaozhe hurriedly ran to Liu Fusheng and said, "Secretary, I feel something is wrong. The villagers around here seem to be gathering more and more."

Liu Fusheng looked around and saw that all the intersections were filled with villagers from Hong Village. Even the walls and roofs of some houses were filled with people, all of whom were staring at him and the members of the task force with eager eyes.

"It's okay, just do what you should do."

Liu Fusheng smiled slightly and appeared very calm.

A few minutes later, Hong Chengli knocked on the gate of Hong Haotian's house.

This is an exquisite two-story building with a garden and parking spaces in the yard. It is built as beautifully as a villa.

Hong Chengli knocked seven or eight times before someone opened the gate.

The person who opened the door was an old lady in her sixties.

Hong Chengli asked: "Is Hong Haotian at home?"

The old lady asked back: "Village Chief, do you have something to do with Haotian?"

Hong Chengli said: "Don't ask questions when you already know the answer. Hong Haotian is involved in a case. Comrades from the Ministry of Public Security, you need to take him back to find out the situation."

The old lady remained silent, with a look of sorrow on her face.

Seeing this, Shen Qingqing hurriedly asked, "Auntie, is something wrong with Hong Haotian?"

Hearing this, the old lady couldn't help but shed tears.

Hong Chengli frowned and asked, "What's going on? Stop crying and explain yourself clearly."

The old lady choked up and said, "Village head, you have to take care of Haotian. He, he has been forced to death by the police!"

Before he finished speaking, there was an uproar all around.

At this moment, at the door of Hong Haotian's house, there were not only people from the Ministry of Public Security's investigation team, but also hundreds of villagers from Hong Village.

When everyone heard that Hong Haotian was forced to death by the police, they were immediately outraged.

Fortunately, as the village chief, Hong Chengli was able to calm the situation.

He shouted, "Stop making noise! ​​Anyone who dares to run around or shout will be punished according to family rules!"

When these words were spoken, the surrounding villagers were immediately shocked.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the faces of these villagers were filled with anger, as if they wanted to rush up and fight the people from the special task force of the Ministry of Public Security at any time and anywhere.

Many police officers subconsciously put their hands on their guns, as if this would increase their sense of security.

A police officer whispered, "Team Leader Qin, do you want to call for reinforcements?"

Qin Guang looked at Liu Fusheng with an inquiring look.

Liu Fusheng said: "There is no need for this for the time being. Let's see what happens first."

After saying that, he took a step forward, stood in front of Hong Haotian's mother and said, "Auntie, I am Liu Fusheng, the Party Secretary of Chaojiang City. How did your son Hong Haotian die?"

Party Secretary?

The old lady was slightly stunned, but still didn't say anything. She just wiped her tears.

With a loud bang, the door opened again and a young man holding a machete ran out.

The man pointed at Liu Fusheng and Qin Guang and shouted, "You forced my elder brother to death, and you still dare to come to my house? I will fight you!"

As he spoke, the young man swung his knife and was about to chop.

Upon seeing this, several police officers immediately pulled out their pistols.

Hong Chengli frowned, stepped forward, stopped the young man and said, "Hong Haoyu, what are you crazy about? Put down the knife!"

When the crazy young man saw Hong Chengli, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He actually threw the knife on the ground obediently.

"Chief, my brother was bullied to death by them. You must help him. These police officers have been trying to arrest him time and time again. My brother was so depressed that he hanged himself at home!"

As soon as Hong Haoyu finished speaking, the heart-wrenching cries of women and children were heard from the room, which was extremely dramatic.
