time,
14:48.
Zhonghai West District Public Security Bureau.
The entire working hall——
The police officers were coming in and out, there was constant traffic, the crackling of keyboards, the sound of telephones, and the rising and falling of rapid voices one after another,
——Anxiety.
At a certain workstation, policewoman Xiao Jing was speaking very quickly and seriously into the headset microphone.
"...Hello? Is this the xx City Public Security Bureau? I am the liaison officer of the Zhonghai City Public Security Bureau. I have important information to convey to you here..."
"...Yes, 18:34...I hope you can mobilize and evacuate the crowd immediately..."
"Um...this is an emergency notice, there is no definite proof yet..."
"It will definitely happen..."
"beep--"
"..."
The call was hung up with the other party's apologetic rejection.
Xiaojing listened to the busy tone in the headset with a complicated look on her face, not knowing what to do.
She looked around,
There were many people who encountered the same situation as her. Almost all of them reported something into the microphone with great energy, but... few of them received positive feedback.
Um,
The situation is not clear at this time.
Almost all regions and all departments expressed a skeptical attitude towards that "intelligence" because, for such an important accident, they did not hear any notification from their superiors, but instead heard the notification from the Public Security Bureau thousands of miles away. ?
It’s hard to guarantee the authenticity of that news…
If it was a fugitive on the loose, or if we received precise information about where someone committed a crime, it would be easy to say.
But unfortunately, somewhere is going to explode, somewhere is going to collapse...
Who can believe this?
How to prove authenticity?
Or, if great efforts were really made to carry out the so-called "rescue", who would bear the responsibility?
……so,
At this time, almost an hour had passed since the Public Security Bureau received the information provided by Zhou Qi. The "first accident" was about to happen, but the dispatching work had not been carried out...
"...Why don't you believe it?"
Xiaojing murmured in an uncomfortable tone.
Her mood could be said to have been ups and downs during this hour. First she was shocked after seeing the information, then she was overjoyed, and then she was confused and puzzled.
Now, she is already a little numb...
In a daze, she felt like she had become a telemarketer or a fraudster. Anyway, nine out of ten phone calls were filled with all kinds of official talk, evasion and rejection.
So, at this moment, as she looked at the lines of event information on the computer screen in front of her, the hand holding the phone was already hesitant...
boom!
Suddenly, a dull sound came from the office door nearby, which made everyone feel their hearts tightening.
because,
In the office is Director Liu who is on the phone...
Listening to the sound, I didn't know whether it was hitting the table or kicking a chair.
Xiaojing pursed her lips and looked at the other people in the hall.
Everyone looked ugly.
It looks like things are getting worse...
The work of these subordinate police officers is not going smoothly because they are too far apart and cannot be dispatched by the same level, coupled with the so-called "responsibility system" and other messy problems.
As for Director Liu,
It's just that I was stuck above.
...The hall became a little quieter.
In fact, it is not entirely true to say that this situation was not expected at all.
These days, various work matters related to Zhou Qi were not going smoothly.
Facing such a "reborn person",
Neither the country nor the government paid enough attention to it.
Even though Zhou Qi did a lot of things to "prove" himself, for some unknown reason, the country never took the appropriate attitude.
Otherwise, considering Zhou Qi's weight and value, shouldn't someone from above have already come down?
This is a real reborn person!
And now,
Just because we didn't pay enough attention, the situation became deadlocked.
Originally, not long ago, the plan formulated by the Public Security Bureau as soon as they got the information was to report to their superiors, submit them layer by layer, and finally wait for the central government to issue orders.
Otherwise, there is no way to achieve active dispatch across the country.
However, just because Zhou Qi’s work and arrangements are in a stagnant state,
The information was only submitted for two levels, and it got stuck...
this,
It’s hard not to bring up negative emotions.
Obviously, it can be done better...
...Soon, a few minutes passed.
Under the attention of the entire Public Security Bureau, accidents that had been expected for a long time began to happen——
Viaduct collapsed...
Factory explosion...
Gas explosion...
"..."
Everyone in the Public Security Bureau began to look numb.
Although,
Everyone knows,
Unpredictable accidents and disasters occur all over the world every moment. No matter how hard we try, there will always be accidents.
but……
When those numbers are not just numbers, but facts before their eyes, no one can maintain inner peace.
That's a human life!
He should have been able to survive!
Could have been avoided…
"Dingling bell~~"
The phone rings.
Xiaojing's somewhat stiff face eased slightly.
Two seconds later,
She chose to connect:
"Hello, this is the West District Public Security Bureau of Zhonghai City..."
"..."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while.
Then a muffled voice came out: "...it really happened."
"..." This time it was Xiaojing's turn to be silent.
Because she didn't know what to say,
Is the other party at fault?
Is there something wrong with the system?
No.
The other party is just following the rules.
Even, to be irresponsible, those things were destined to happen, so now they are just following the original trajectory, what is there to say?
Xiaojing didn't know why she hung up the phone.
At this time, the entire Public Security Bureau was ringing with one voice after another, but what was different from before was that now those voices were filled with fatigue and numbness...
I don’t know who sighed,
"There really is nothing I can do about it. I wouldn't believe it if it were me. After all, rebirth, this kind of thing is too nonsense..."
"..."
Everyone was silent.
After a while, someone else said:
"Why do I feel...that boy is not trying his best? He just throws this mess to us and doesn't care about anything? Doesn't he think about the follow-up things?"
At this time, everyone's negative emotions were aroused.
"Yes, does he think we are omnipotent?"
"No, we must capture him and talk about it again! What does he think of himself? He is just leading us!"
"Don't say that. What if he didn't tell us? Then we wouldn't even have a chance to know..."
"Who can you blame for this?"
"That's right...well, there's nothing we can do about this, things are unpredictable."
"..."
Sudden,
The office door is opened.
Director Liu walked out with a gloomy look.
After scanning the entire hall, he said in a deep voice: "Okay, as proven by the previous accidents, the notice from above has been issued, and now the country has entered a state of war readiness...
Everyone, continue to work, this time, the central government will dispatch in real time..."
…
