Chapter 543 – Commission for Discipline Inspection!
Noon.
Guang Ming Subdistrict Office.
“Have you heard it? Our new Director had fought with others!”
“He got into a fight?! How is this possible?”
“Xiao Yu told me earlier that he saw it with his own eyes.”
“I also heard about this. Director Dong fought against twenty-six men!”
“Bullshit! Who are you trying to bluff?”
“Why should I lie to you? Those store owners were holding metal rods and knives and had surrounded our men. Many of them are injured, and Director Dong got mad. He rolled up his sleeves and went over to knock them out! Hey, Xiao Yu is here. Xiao Yu, hurry and tell them what happened.”
“What’s there to say? All of us were stunned.”
“Did it happen?!”
“I saw it with my own eyes.”
“Damn! Didn’t our Director worked at the Investment Promotion Agency before transferring here? How come he is so good at fighting?”
“I heard Director Dong had worked in the Public Security Bureau before. Oh, do you all remember our City’s wildlife safari incident?”
“Yes. The TV station had even made a special episode about that. Ah! I remember it now!”
“It was Yan Tai County’s Investment Promotion Agency Chief Dong who had fought the Siberian tiger to rescue the child. Our Director was from Yan Tai County Investment Promotion Agency!”
“That person is Director Dong?!”
“It must be him! If not, why can he fight so well? He can even fight against a Siberian tiger, let alone twenty men.”
“Damn! That’s too scary!”
“He is extraordinary. Our Director is a real fighter!”
Such conversations are happening everywhere within the Subdistrict Office. Everyone, including those that are not working, knows about this incident. Their new Director had beaten up twenty-six angry illegal store owners y himself. He is also the hero who fought off a Siberian Tiger to save a child last year. Everyone is talking about him, and it should spread to the neighborhoods and residents in a few days.
Side building.
Party Secretary Office.
Zhou Yanru knocked on the door and entered. “Director.”
Dong Xuebing looked at her and asked. “Didn’t I ask you to go back and rest? Have you gone to the hospital?”
“My back is only slightly swollen. It’s alright.”
“You should also get it treated.” Dong Xuebing continued. “What about Director Yu and the others?”
Zhou Yanru smiles. “Director, if it wasn’t for you stopping those people, all of us might be seriously injured. Director Yu had only twisted his ankle, and a Staff Member had some scratches on his arms and shoulder. He is getting a tetanus shot at the hospital now. A Police Officer suffered the most serious injuries. He got a deep cut on his leg and is being treated in the hospital. But his condition is stable.”
Dong Xuebing nodded. “I will visit him at the hospital later. How is the demolition?”
Zhou Yanru replied. “Old Meng is there overseeing the operation, and we are contacting the relevant departments to clear the debris. Those store owners and residents are still very agitated, and I heard from Old Meng that they are going to sue us at the District Government.”
“What do they want to sue?”
“They want to sue our Subdistrict Office for hitting people.”
Dong Xuebing laughed. “They are hitting us with metal poles and knives, and we are not allowed to defend ourselves? Let them sue us. I still have a score to settle with them. Do they think nothing will happen to them after injuring my men?!”
After Zhou Yanru left, Dong Xuebing called Police Chief Peng Gang.
“Old Peng, how are your injuries?”
“It’s nothing! Those few blows are nothing! Hahaha…”
Dong Xuebing laughed. “Good to hear that. Alright. Liu Xiang Hu Tong’s incident is not over. We cannot let our comrades suffer for anything. Get your men to follow up with this incident. Xue Gui and his hooligans, including the tailor and breakfast store owners, and those who had hit our people must not be let off. Bring them back to the station, and charge them with assaults. Give them the heaviest fines and punishment.”
Peng Gang is still angry with those people. “I will arrest them now.”
Peng Gang did not pay lip service this time and is prepared to face the pressure from the District. These arrogant store owners must be punished.
Dong Xuebing continued to give out orders to settle this incident.
The Subdistrict Office is working together after what happened in the morning. Peng Gang, Guo Mingfeng, and Geng’s faction start to follow Dong Xuebing’s orders. Dong Xuebing had protected all of them earlier, and it is not right for them to continue going against his orders.
At the same time, the impact of the incident continues to spread.
More than a dozen of angry store owners blocked the entrance of the District Party Committee entrance. All of them have bruises on their faces, and they are shouting.
“We want to meet the District’s Leaders!”
“How can they beat up civilians and arrest us?!”
“Guang Ming Subdistrict Office’s Director tried to kill us! How can he be qualified to be a Government staff?!”
“We want to speak to the District’s Leaders! We demand an explanation!”
“Suspend Dong Xuebing! Or else, we will complain to the City! If the City Government ignores us, we will complain to the Provincial Government! I don’t believe they will not care about us!”
“That’s right! Remove him from his position!”
“That criminal must be punished!”
Almost everyone in the District Party Committee Building can hear these cries and know Guang Ming Subdistrict Office had clashed with the residents when they evict them!
……..
Afternoon.
Dong Xuebing was visiting his injured staff at the District Second Hospital when his phone rang. It was an unknown number.
Dong Xuebing walked to the corridor and answered. “Hello, who is this?”
A deep voice replied. “I am Wu Liang, from the District Commission for Discipline Inspection.”
Wu Liang? Nan Shan District’s Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary?!
Dong Xuebing quickly reply. “Good afternoon, Secretary Wu.”
Wu Liang replied. “We have received complaints about you. Director Dong, I need you to come to our Commission for Discipline Inspection now.”
Dong Xuebing’s face changed. The Commission for Discipline Inspection is looking for me?! What does this mean? Are they going to investigate me?
Dong Xuebing put down the phone and told Zhou Yanru that he is leaving. After that, he drove off from the hospital.
The Commission for Discipline Inspection Office.
It is located on the second floor.
Wu Liang stared at Dong Xuebing behind his desk with a long face. “A group of civilians had blocked the entrance of our District Party Committee Building, and they are complaining about Guang Ming Subdistrict Office’s staff injuring the residents during the eviction. Is this true?”
Dong Xuebing replied. “Yes, but it was….”
Wu Liang interrupted. “Do you all still have discipline? Beating up the civilians?! Is this how you order your men?! Do you know your actions will tarnish our District’s reputation?! Do you know how severe it is to beat up civilians?!”
Dong Xuebing frowned and replied. “You might not know about the situation. We…”
Wu Liang interrupted again. “I don’t need your explanations! I only know that you all had injured the residents, and more than a dozen of them had blocked our entrance! You all are a disgrace!”
Dong Xuebing is frustrated. “Secretary Wu, you are unfair to us. Have you got your men to find out what happened during the eviction?! That’s right. I had hit those people, but what did we do wrong?! The District is only concern about those injured civilians, and ignoring our staff is also injured?! Have you ever seen civilians armed with metal rods and knives attacking our men?! Civilians?! Those are a group of criminals!”
Wu Liang got mad. “You still dare to get angry?!”
“Secretary Wu, I am not arguing with you. I am stating the facts! If those are really civilians, we will not retaliate! But they are not! They are operating their businesses illegally and renting out those illegal buildings! They surrounded our Subdistrict Office staff, armed with knives and poles! We want to avoid them, but they blocked our path and refused to let us leave! We still have three comrades in the District Second Hospital stitching their wounds! Have the District investigated this thoroughly?! How can you all determine it is our fault!? Are you expecting us to stand there and let them slash us?! Do you want us to take off our shirts to let them hit and still thank them?!”
Wu Liang banged his desk. “There are many ways to handle conflicts! Do you all have to clash with them?!”
Damn! You can say whatever you want when you are not involved!
Dong Xuebing got mad. “I might not explain the situation clearly, but there are many nearby residents there. My staff and those residents had seen everything, and the District can send someone to verify with them! Secretary Wu, I want to ask you this! If the civilians’ lives are important, does that mean our Subdistrict Office’s staff’s lives are unimportant? I don’t believe any of your staff can remain calm when more than thirty armed civilians had surrounded and going to chop him! We are the same! I had brought my men there, and it is my responsibility to protect them!”
Wu Liang let out an angry laugh. “You still think you have not done anything wrong?!”
“Secretary Wu.” Dong Xuebing stared at him. “What is the District thinking?! Men with knives and poles had assaulted our people, and what’s wrong with defending ourselves?! Why is the District not considering us and siding with those criminals?! Is this what our country’s law is for?!”
Wu Liang is not an unreasonable person. From what Dong Xuebing said, he knew he might have overlooked something. “…… tell me what happened.”
