“However, this Lin Huowang is quite talkative.
Especially just now, when Zhao Laosi swore, he followed suit and swore even more ruthlessly, even daring to say that his entire family would die.
Suddenly, Zhao Laosi didn't dare to say a word, like a defeated turtle. "
…
As more and more cadres gathered around, Director Zhao also had to be careful about the impact, lest someone say that he was being arbitrary and unable to distinguish right from wrong.
So he came up with a delaying tactic, coughed and said:
"The forest is on fire! Zhao Laosi!
Now, each of you thinks you are right, and the other thinks you are right.
For the moment, I don’t know who to believe among you.
So, for the time being, we have decided that, in the interest of fairness, you two should be imprisoned.
We will wait for our commune to send someone to conduct a detailed investigation, and then decide who to release and who to punish after we get the results."
Director Zhao was able to say such words under such circumstances, which shows his high level of ability.
In fact, this is also an essential "leadership art" for many leaders in later generations.
Using a seemingly fair method, a big incident that was about to become a big deal was put under a lid.
This can not only avoid causing adverse effects, but also facilitate some subsequent behind-the-scenes operations.
As long as this matter is out of the sight and supervision of the masses and cadres, it doesn't matter what Director Zhao says.
“Okay! I agree.
Director Zhao, I have a clear conscience and nothing to hide.
The worst that can happen is that I have to spend a few days in jail! As long as I can be cleared of all charges in the end."
With a righteous demeanor, Zhao Laosi is a typical histrionic personality.
To the extent that many of the commune cadres around him who originally thought that there was something wrong with him began to wonder again. Could it be that what Zhao Laosi said was true?
"Very good! Comrade Zhao Laosi has a very high level of awareness!
You must believe in the Party and the organization!
As long as you are innocent, we will never wrongly accuse a good person.
But on the contrary..."
With a sneer, Zhao Tiechui looked at Lin Huowang and said, "On the contrary, as long as you break the law, we will never let a bad guy go.
Lin Huowang, do you agree with what I just said?
Stay in the commune's armed forces department for a few days and let the commune send someone to investigate?"
Upon hearing this, deputy captain Lin Shuisheng quickly tugged at Lin Huowang's clothes and became worried about him.
If this really goes ahead and reaches the armed forces department, then there will be no one to turn to.
Whether it is black or white, it is up to the commune director to decide.
Lin Huowang naturally knew this, not to mention that he already had a plan in mind, and then smiled and shook his head:
“I don’t think that’s necessary!
Director Zhao, I request a public trial.
Let the people judge us and see who is black and who is white.
I believe that the people’s eyes are sharp and can see the truth clearly.”
Crash!
Never stop until your words shock people.
All the cadres who were watching were shocked by Lin Huowang's proposal to initiate a public trial.
It's been so many years, but few people dare to propose a public trial!
"This cripple from Linjiagou, does he really want to die? If he is tried by the commune's armed forces department, he will be charged with intentional injury at most, and sentenced to three to five years, and then released.
If he initiates a public trial, the people will make the judgment on the spot.
Most of the criminals who were publicly tried were eventually sentenced to death by firing squad due to the righteous voices of the general public!"
"It's crazy! It's crazy! In our Red Star Commune, there hasn't been a public trial for many years.
The last time, I remember, was four years ago, when we publicly tried a few KMT remnants, and then each of them ate a peanut. "
"Since they dare to propose a public trial, I think... Lin Huowang must be innocent."
"That's not necessarily true, maybe he really has no other choice and just wants to take a gamble?
Anyway, neither side can produce favorable evidence now, so in the end, it all depends on whose argument can move the people more, right? "
"That makes sense. To be able to come up with this idea of a public trial, this Lin Huowang is not an ordinary person!"
…
"Lin Huowang! Are you kidding?
Just for such a small matter as yours, you are holding a public trial?"
Director Zhao was obviously shocked by Lin Huowang's words, and quickly frowned and scolded him.
Zhao Laosi was so frightened that his face turned pale and he shouted:
"Who do you think you are, you idiot?
If you want a public trial, then let’s have a public trial! I won’t play along with you!”
"Oh? If you object, then you have something to hide?
Zhao Laosi, what shameful things have you done that you dare not accept the scrutiny of the people? "
Lin Huowang sneered and said to Zhao Tiechui:
"Director Zhao! What is your reason for not accepting the public trial?
Is this a small matter? You called me a murderer.
Or do you think that the people's eyes are not as sharp as yours as the director of the commune?"
How could Director Zhao dare to accept all these big hats, especially with so many commune cadres watching outside!
If he dares to insist that a public trial cannot be held, he himself will be a counter-revolutionary against the people.
This is how it is these days. Everyone has to be careful in what they say and do, otherwise if you are not careful, it is easy for others to find something to hold against you and label you a rightist, a counter-revolutionary, and put you on the opposite side of the people.
"Okay! Lin Huowang, this is what you asked for.
Let’s have a public trial. Let the people examine and supervise you to see who is right and who is wrong between you two.
When the time comes, the people will have made their judgment and there will be no room for rebuttal.
If you really get shot, don't blame me!"
