Pastoral Daily Life - Chapter 99
[Chapter 99 Doubt]
Fang Lei didn’t take the little boy’s words seriously at first, who would listen to a dog? He thought it was all a little boy’s whimsy, just like in many fairy tales. But when he left Lingshui Village and returned to Songjiazhuang, he unknowingly walked to the Lingshui River.
The weather this year is unusually cold, and the Lingshui River has already frozen. The dark ice surface seemed bottomless under the sunlight, and Fang Lei knew that this was because the river water was polluted. He stared at the ice with some fascination, not knowing why the words the little boy said appeared in his mind again. “Huang said that the water in the river is poisonous, and if you drink it, your stomach hurts.” This sentence was like a magic spell, and it kept spinning in his mind. Between the lights and flints, Fang Lei thought of something. He found a tool to cut through the ice layer and collected some water, and ordered his subordinates to take it back and quickly test it.
The test results will come out soon. The water quality in the Lingshui River is the same as the water quality in the well water, both of which are cyanide exceeding the standard, and even the cyanide composition in both is exactly the same. After hearing that the summer rainstorm caused the river to flood several times, Fang Lei probably guessed what the poisoning was all about. In order to prove his idea, he asked someone to test the nearby soil and groundwater, and determined that these were contaminated, and the composition of the contaminated toxic substances was exactly the same as that in the well water.
Contacting the plastic factory that had previously stopped production in Songjiazhuang, this so-called “poisoning” accident can be said to be caused by the people of Songjiazhuang.
After hearing Fang Lei’s words, all the people in Songjiazhuang were stunned. Song Wancai responded the most, “It wasn’t people who poisoned us, it was our own fault?”
Fang Lei nodded, but he breathed a sigh of relief when he came out. Environmental pollution poisoning is not the same as the social impact caused by someone deliberately poisoning on a large scale.
Out of kindness, Fang Lei did not forget to remind the villagers, “I am afraid that these fields will not be able to be planted in a year or two. There are too many toxic substances in the soil, and the harvest will not be good.”
“What, you can’t even plant the land? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the village immediately broke out. Because the plastic factory was closed, the villagers were discussing whether they should learn from Lingshui River and Shigou River and rent out the land to make some money. Now that I hear that I can no longer farm, isn’t this income gone again?
Fang Lei looked at them a little helpless. He was the police who solved the case, and he didn’t bring the villagers to get rich. This kind of thing couldn’t be solved by talking to him. “Okay, that’s it for this case. Be careful, don’t go to the well to fetch water, and inform each other in the village. Don’t take it seriously.”
After saying this, Fang Lei didn’t stay in Songjiazhuang much, he still had to Go back and write a report. After driving out of the village entrance, Fang Lei hesitated for a few seconds before turning towards Lingshui Village. For the past two days, he has been thinking about the big yellow dog. Ordinarily he shouldn’t believe this, but he doesn’t know why, the words the little boy said are always recalled in his mind. And the little boy and the big yellow dog got along, so he couldn’t help but have an idea, what if it was true?
Fang Lei drove all the way to Lingshui Village, and saw the little boy and the big yellow dog from afar. One person and one dog were squatting at the gate of the small courtyard beside the road and saying something. From his point of view, it really seemed like they were communicating.
Fang Lei thought he must be crazy.
Dong Xiaolei was quite happy to see Fang Lei again. He lost his father a long time ago, and his impression of his father is only in the photos. However, Dong Xiaolei thinks that his father should be like Fang Lei, who catches bad guys everywhere and looks mighty.
“Hello, Uncle Police. ” Fang Lei laughed, “Xiao Shishi
is good. What are you doing? Are you waiting to catch the bad guy?”
Dong Xiaolei pouted and shook his head, “The bad guy sued Brother Xiaoxi, Brother Xiaoxi won’t let Ah Huang Bullying people, saying that they want to give the bad people a chance to correct.” Xu was the first time they met Fang Lei wearing a police uniform, Dong Xiaolei trusted him very much and was completely unsuspecting.
“Brother Xiaoxi is right. Bad guys will be punished if they make mistakes, but if the bad guys admit their mistakes, they must be given a chance to correct.” Fang Lei said patiently. If no one cares, you will grow up to be a bear child.
Dong Xiaolei rolled his eyes, “Then how do you know that the bad guy is really admitting his mistake? What if he lied to me?” Fang Lei was a little troubled
by this question. He had never dealt with such a young child. Are today’s children so smart? Fang Lei thought about it and said, “It depends on the attitude of the bad guy to admit his fault…”
One big and one small squatted there and chatted, Dong Xiaolei seemed to be very interested in catching the bad guy, and asked around this topic. Fang Lei finally found an opportunity to shift the topic to Ah Huang, and Dong Xiaolei immediately became hesitant. After telling the police uncle about Ah Huang before, Dong Xiaolei regretted it when he went back. Brother Xiaoxi said that this was a secret between him and Ah Huang, and he should not tell others casually.
“Uncle police officer, I’m going back to eat.”
Dong Xiaolei got up and ran, and Ah Huang followed behind him. Fang Lei looked at him with laughter, little brat, playing such a trick with him, I don’t know if the adults had told him. Fang Lei thought about his crazy idea and shook his head.
For several days, Fang Lei came to Lingshui Village to find Dong Xiaolei. Children in the village generally do not go to kindergarten, and go directly to primary school when they reach the age. Dong Xiaolei is five years old this year, not yet the age of primary school, and runs around the village with Huang every day. Because the friends thought he was a liar before, no one was willing to play with him. Dong Xiaolei doesn’t mind either, he has Ah Huang and brother Xiaoxi, and now he has a police uncle.
Although the police uncle looked good, Dong Xiaolei still remembered Lu Lingxi’s order and stopped talking about Ah Huang. But what did Fang Lei do, and the words came out of his mouth quietly. It’s just that Fang Lei still can’t believe it, how can humans communicate with animals? Is it only a special case of small stones or others?
Fang Lei couldn’t explain why he was so concerned about this matter. He had a vague idea that if the police dogs in the team could communicate with people, it would be very convenient to solve cases and catch thieves in the future. He appeared so frequently, and Xu San had long been eyeing him. Xu San suspected that Fang Lei was a human trafficker, and wondered if there were rumors of lost children nearby. But Xu San didn’t tell Uncle Li, but quietly stared at Fang Lei. That arrogant kid from Little Stone had too much prejudice against him. Xu San hoped that if Fang Lei was really a trafficker, he would jump out to save Little Rock at the critical moment, which would also reverse the impression he had in Little Rock. He was being chased by Ah Huang every day, and he was scared to death.
Several people have different thoughts, and Lu Lingxi doesn’t know this. He didn’t come to the flower garden very often recently. Wang Shuxiu and Xiao Feng were about to get married. Lu Lingxi was a little busy, so he entrusted the whole garden to Uncle Li and called every day or two.
I heard Uncle Li say that the people in Songjiazhuang are all right. After he was discharged from the hospital this time, the people in the village scolded Song Wancai in a bloody way. They all thought that he was disregarding everyone’s health for the sake of money. Now that something happened, it should be Song Wancai’s responsibility. Lu Lingxi felt that Song Wancai was wronged. When the village was making money, he would not be talked about. He was the one who was to blame when something went wrong.
Songjiazhuang was so noisy that Fengcheng TV station specially made a news feature on the importance of environmental protection. For a while, there were rumors in Fengcheng that the city government would ban all kinds of small factories in the suburbs, and it would continue to pay close attention to environmental protection next year.
In all kinds of rumors, the governance of Lingshui River has been put on the agenda.
