Chapter 2226 Qin Feng "Goes into Devilishness"

Zhang Jun naturally had his own little thoughts. He didn't want to carry out Liu Xiaoping's order, but he didn't dare to openly disobey Liu Xiaoping's order, so he ran to Qin Feng, hoping that Qin Feng could help him resist Liu Xiaoping's order.

"You just said that based on your many years of work experience, Liu Xiaoping's use of violent suppression to deal with this matter will definitely not succeed. Are you sure?" Qin Feng asked.

"I can be 100% sure! What era is it now? Ordinary people are no longer the same as they were 20 years ago. Twenty years ago, as long as a policeman stood in front of them in uniform, ordinary people would be so scared that their legs would go weak and they would do whatever they were told to do."

"It's different now. When you enforce the law, the locals will ask you to show your ID, ask you for the formalities, and take photos with their phones. If you do anything that is not in compliance with the regulations, they will complain about you."

"We are now living in a society ruled by law. Using the violent suppression methods used more than 20 years ago will not only be ineffective, but will instead cause strong public indignation and will definitely cause big problems. Mayor Qin, I don't want to be cannon fodder. You have to help me." Zhang Jun looked very pitiful.

Qin Feng smiled. Zhang Jun didn't want to follow Liu Xiaoping's orders, but he didn't dare to openly disobey Liu Xiaoping's orders, so he thought about finding Qin Feng. Liu Xiaoping also guessed that Zhang Jun would not completely obey his orders, so he found Qin Feng as soon as possible. Liu Xiaoping said so much to Qin Feng at the meeting today because he hoped that Qin Feng would not make trouble and asked Zhang Jun to resolutely execute orders.

"Since we know that this matter cannot be suppressed, why do we need to jump into this fire pit? If Liu Xiaoping wants to go crazy, there is no need for you and me to go crazy with him."

"But you must execute the mayor's orders. There is nothing to say about this. However, the prerequisite for execution is that the mayor's orders must be legal and compliant. As a law enforcement agency, your Public Security Bureau must strictly implement all actions in accordance with laws and regulations. As long as you enforce the law in full accordance with the law, no one can do anything to you. Do you understand?" Qin Feng said while smoking.

Zhang Jun was also a smart man. He immediately understood what Qin Feng meant and nodded quickly.

It's not that Zhang Jun didn't know what to do, but without Qin Feng's support, he didn't dare to disobey Liu Xiaoping's orders. Now that he has Qin Feng's support, he naturally has the courage to do so.

"Please help me do something. Investigate everything about this Golden Orchid Court real estate project, including the developer and the people and events behind the developer. I want to know what is going on here."

Zhang Jun nodded: "I know what to do. I will arrange for reliable people to conduct a secret investigation."

"Pretend to do it well, but don't leave any handle for others. Although Liu Xiaoping has given this task to you, he is not stupid enough to really believe that you will do your best to carry it out. He will definitely arrange people to do it. If something really goes wrong, you have to think of a plan on how to clear yourself and avoid being dragged out as a scapegoat by Liu Xiaoping." Qin Feng instructed Zhang Jun before he left.

After Zhang Jun left, Qin Feng called Li Jianjun in.

"Is there any new information about the self-immolators?" Qin Feng asked.

"The secretary general issued an order that no one was allowed to talk about this matter anymore, and all videos shot were to be deleted, so no one dared to talk about this matter anymore. However, before the secretary general issued the order, someone broke some news."

"The man who set himself on fire was 32 years old this year. He was born with a limp in his left foot and was disabled. His family was not well off. His father died in a car accident more than a decade ago. His mother was a laid-off worker who later made a living by working as a sanitation worker and picking up scraps."

"The man who set himself on fire was disabled and had no means of earning money. He relied on self-study to learn how to repair watches and bicycles. He set up a stall at the street corner to repair watches and bicycles. Since fewer and fewer people use mechanical watches and ride bicycles nowadays, he could barely make a living."

"Someone introduced him to a girlfriend a few years ago, but she thought his old house was too small and old, and she asked for a bigger house."

"Because he was born with a disability and was old, the mother and son tried their best to meet each other's requirements. They not only took out all their savings, but also sold their old house. They also borrowed a lot of foreign debts and bought the house in Golden Orchid Court in full. They planned to get married after the house was delivered."

"Who would have thought... all the money was paid, but there was no sign of the house. The girl waited for two years and finally found another man to marry."

"The mother and son lost their house, their money, their wife, and were left with a mountain of debt."

"We bought an old house and lived with our relatives, thinking we would move out after the house was handed over. But we didn't expect to live there for several years. Our relatives couldn't stand it anymore and kicked us out. We had no choice but to live under the bridge."

"Because she lived under the bridge, exposed to the wind and rain, and because of the house issue, this old lady fell seriously ill within half a year of living under the bridge. Because she had no money for surgery, her treatment was delayed and she died."

"This self-immolator has been participating in rights protection for the past two years. It is said that he was arrested and detained twice by the police station for rights protection, and two of his ribs were broken by someone for unknown reasons."

"He was also present at the last rally in front of the city government. He was arrested by the police and detained for more than two months. He was released not long ago, but he ran to the city government gate and set himself on fire."

Li Jianjun explained the situation of the self-immolators to Qin Feng in detail.

Qin Feng listened to Li Jianjun talking while lighting a cigarette unnaturally. After Li Jianjun finished speaking, Qin Feng asked, "Is there a video? Didn't you say you have a video?"

"Are you talking about the video of the self-immolation?" Li Jianjun asked.

"Yes."

"Mayor Qin, this... this video is a little too cruel..."

"Send it to me, send it to my mobile phone." Qin Feng insisted.

Li Jianjun nodded and started uploading videos to Qin Feng’s mobile phone.

"Where did you get this information?" Qin Feng asked Li Jianjun.

"Last time you asked me to learn about the Golden Orchid Court property, I went out of my way to find some of the property's owners. I've been in contact with them ever since. They don't know my identity, and I've always pretended to be the owner. I got this information from them," Li Jianjun replied.

At this time, the video came over. Qin Feng turned on his mobile phone and watched the video while smoking. As he watched, Qin Feng's eyes began to moisten and the fingers holding the cigarette began to tremble.

Qin Feng sat there for more than an hour. During this hour, he seemed to be in a trance, and kept playing the video of the self-immolation over and over again. Qin Feng's appearance frightened Li Jianjun, who thought Qin Feng had "gone astray."
