"What do you want to do? There's no way to arrest people just because the investigation isn't clear."
Xia Huzi glared, he was really tough this time.
"That's right, Lin Xiao broke the door lock out of desperation to save the five-guarantee households. He didn't break the lock randomly."
"We can testify for him. You arrest people indiscriminately without asking any questions. We in Banpo Village don't allow it."
…
For a moment, everyone started arguing and surrounded Lin Xiao, which made the man surnamed Huang turn pale.
You know, even though he brought two policemen, they were here to help him. Besides, he really didn't dare to act rashly in a situation like this.
"You'd better investigate this matter thoroughly before talking about it! Let's go to the car and wait."
One of the policemen came over and said softly.
Before the man named Huang could say anything, the two policemen turned around and left.
At this time, an old man in his sixties came over and said: "Leader! You can't do things like this. We all know what happened that night. Lin Xiao was not wrong.
If it were later, Zhao Yuanke, a five-guarantee household, would be dead. Is a human life not as valuable as a broken lock? "
The old man's voice was high-pitched and he seemed a little excited.
The man surnamed Huang rolled his eyes and stuttered a little: "I..."
"If you don't know anything, go investigate. Lin Xiao not only rescued Zhao Yuan, a household with five guarantees, that night, he also led the young people in the village to rescue Nie Chunlan's family.
According to people in the village, Lin Xiao paid for Nie Chunlan's hospital bills in advance. Why would you arrest such a good young man? "
Another old man said angrily.
When Fatty Pig saw this situation, he hurriedly grabbed the man named Huang and said, "Let's go. Come back if you don't want to find out."
The man surnamed Huang borrowed the donkey from Poxia. He immediately turned around and followed the fat pig away in dejection.
Lin Xiao was moved and said loudly: "Thank you everyone!"
"You kid, why are you saying this?
We all see what you do. If you don't come out and say something fair, then are we still human? "
The old man just now smiled and said to Lin Xiao.
Only then did Lin Xiao see her mother Liu Xiuzhi standing behind these people. It seemed that she had gone out to find these people.
Everyone gathered around Lin Xiao and talked for a while. They asked about Nie Chunlan's situation, and Lin Xiao explained it to everyone in great detail.
After these people slowly left, Xia Huzi pulled Lin Xiao to the west house and said, "This matter tonight must be Liu Futang's fault. You don't know that after this snow disaster, most people in the village are scolding This old guy."
"This guy surnamed Huang doesn't seem to be a good person. I'm afraid this matter will never end."
Lin Xiao sighed and said that he was not afraid, but he was afraid that this guy would make things difficult for his family if he was not at home.
Xia Huzi nodded and said, "I think so.
Why! do you know? We have a newly transferred female head of Nanyang Township. I heard that she is still a college student. She is just educated. The most important thing is that she is willing to do practical things for the people. How about you go find her tomorrow? "
Lin Xiao frowned and asked Xia Huzi, "Do you mean to tell her about this?"
"That's right! We can't just sit back and wait, we have to take the initiative. I don't believe that the old Liu family can cover the sky with one hand."
Xia Huzi said and smiled.
Lin Xiao looked at this young boy and couldn't help but punch him and said, "Okay! He has made great progress. Not only is he aware, but his speaking skills have also improved a lot."
"No, I am now in charge of the sales of the brick and tile factory, and I can't even speak well, so how can I sell the bricks we produce?
Let me tell you the truth! I borrowed some books and now I am studying secretly. "
Xia Huzi laughed loudly as he spoke.
After dinner, Chen Erniu, who had heard the news, also came, and the three of them talked secretly in Lin Xiao's small room all night, of course, all about the brick and tile factory.
The next morning, Lin Xiao went to Nanyang Township after breakfast. Because it was too cold in the morning and there was no market on Nanyang Street that day, there were almost no pedestrians on the road.
The streets were even deserted. Seeing such a scene, Lin Xiao felt really uncomfortable.
Nanyang Township Government is located in the middle of Nanyang Street, and it is also on the side of the road.
There was a large courtyard surrounded by low brick and tile houses. Next to the big iron gate was a wooden sign with several big characters written on it. When Lin Xiao walked in through the iron gate, the old concierge was wearing glasses. read newspaper.
"Hello, sir! Which office is the new female mayor in?"
Lin Xiao climbed on the window sill and asked very politely.
The uncle put down the newspaper in his hand, looked at Lin Xiao, and then said with a smile: "The middle row, the sixth house from east to west, her name is Zhao Jingyi, she is a nice person."
"Okay, thank you sir."
Lin Xiao said hello happily, then turned and walked towards the courtyard.
As he walked in, counting the doors from east to west, coincidentally, when he had just counted the sixth house, the door opened with a crash.
I saw a dignified-looking woman about thirty years old, wearing a black woolen coat, walking out of it.
This woman had a ponytail thrown back very casually, and she had a pair of glasses on the bridge of her nose.
"Are you Township Chief Zhao Jingyi? I want to talk to you about something."
Lin Xiao jogged two steps and said quickly.
When Zhao Jingyi stopped, she glanced at Lin Xiao, then nodded and said, "Oh! I'm Zhao Jingyi, let's go to the room and talk."
The door was originally locked, so Zhao Jingyi took out the key and opened the door.
A small room. As soon as you enter the door, you are faced with a desk. There is a chair in front of the desk and a row of chairs.
There is a room inside, which should be a bedroom.
"Sit down! What do you want from me?"
As soon as Zhao Jing said that, he sat behind the desk.
Lin Xiao thought for a moment and then said: "My name is Lin Xiao. I am from Banpo Village, Nanyang Township. It was the sudden heavy snowfall two nights ago...
Lin Xiao told Zhao Jingyi in detail how he was woken up, how he rescued Zhao Yuan, and how he kicked in the door of the village committee office.
Of course, he also briefly mentioned the matter of rescuing Nie Chunlan and sending her to the hospital, but when he came home last night, he encountered an arrest, so he mentioned it in more detail.
As soon as Zhao Jing finished listening, her beautiful face immediately became angry.
"Is everything you said true? You can't lie about this kind of thing."
Lin Xiao nodded and said, "If Mayor Zhao doesn't believe it, he can investigate in the village first. Anyway, there are more than 200 households in Banpo Village, so everyone won't lie!"
As soon as Lin Xiao finished speaking, someone knocked on the door and came in.
As soon as this man came in, he and Lin Xiao looked at each other, and his expression changed drastically.
"What are you here for?"
This man yelled at Lin Xiao. It turned out that he was the man named Huang who led people to arrest Lin Xiao last night.
