"Commissioner Wei, I have a question for you. If someone reports something, can you just come and search the house, regardless of whether it's true or not?
If I now report Commissioner Wei for corruption and bribery, can I also ask the Revolutionary Committee to search your home for evidence?"
As Lin Ran finished speaking, not only the Lin family members, but also Cao Changzheng's faces turned pale.
How dare this girl say anything?
You even want to report Commissioner Wei?
Isn’t this like an old man hanging himself because he thinks his life is too long?
As expected, the person involved, Wei Feng, sneered with a sullen face:
"Okay, okay! You're great! You may not be very old, but you're very brave. If you want to report me, go ahead. But before that, I still have to search your house. It's pointless for you to keep dragging this out with me.
I hope you'll have a chance to report me after I finish my search."
Facing Wei Feng's anger, Lin Ran didn't take it to heart at all, but chuckled instead.
“I just gave an example and I hope that Commissioner Wei can help clarify the confusion.
But even though Commissioner Wei did not give a direct answer, I already knew the answer from your reaction.
There must be no such rule, right?
If it is really like this and a house is searched as soon as a report is made, then things will get really chaotic.
Those who encourage this kind of reporting culture are the ones who truly have reactionary tendencies.
We should investigate carefully to see if it has been infiltrated by foreign countries.
Deliberately trying to create civil unrest in our country!"
"Shut up! Is this nonsense allowed?"
Wei Feng was so frightened that his face turned pale.
But Lin Ran obviously didn't realize how damaging his words were, and still said innocently:
"Commissioner Wei, you're being too serious. Whether I'm talking nonsense or not will be clear based on what you do."
After saying that, she turned around and looked at the team members who were surrounding them and watching the excitement.
"Fellow villagers, we have been neighbors for decades, living together day and night. I believe that no one knows better than you whether our Lin family is a reactionary."
As soon as these words were spoken, the team members who had just been staring at the Lin family with suspicion immediately hesitated.
Yes, Lin Weiguo and his family were natives of Tashan Brigade. How could they have come into contact with reactionaries?
Moreover, as the team leader, Lin Weiguo has been doing his best to care for them over the years.
In order to make their lives better, I have recently been trying to find a way to give them a side job, such as raising silkworms.
Even Lin Laosan is now helping with the silkworm breeding experiment, without asking for any work points.
How could such a person be a reactionary?
The more the team members thought about it, the more grateful they were for Lin Weiguo's kindness, and someone immediately stood up to speak for Lin Weiguo.
"Comrade leader, Captain Lin rarely leaves the Tashan Brigade and has always worked hard for it. We have all seen this, so he is definitely not a reactionary."
Once there is one, there will be two, and the other team members also started to join in.
"Yes, Comrade Leader, we can all testify to that."
"I think the person who reported it might have a grudge against the Lin family and is deliberately trying to frame them. Leaders, please don't believe his lies!"
"The Lin family is innocent. Please, leaders, please don't arrest them!"
“…”
The team members became more and more excited as they talked, and the scene was noisy.
Wei Feng’s head was about to explode after hearing this.
Obviously, he didn't expect that he would encounter such great resistance just to check on a small captain.
Looking at the teammates who surrounded him, Wei Feng couldn't help but greet Jia Yongchang's mother in his heart.
He was so idle that he had nothing to do, so he was asked to target a captain.
And judging from the current situation, Lin Weiguo must be doing a very good job as the team leader, otherwise there wouldn't be so many team members protecting him.
I don’t know what Jia Yongchang is thinking.
However, he was just following orders. Even though he knew in his heart that Lin Weiguo might be wronged, he would not offend Jia Yongchang for him.
But now the public is very angry, which makes it a bit difficult for him.
Accountant Zheng saw that Wei Feng was in a difficult situation. Although he didn't want to reveal that he was the one who reported it, he was worried that the matter would fail today.
He had finally persuaded Jia Yongchang to help deal with Lin Weiguo. If he failed today, Jia Yongchang would probably not help him again.
Therefore, he had to stand up and speak loudly:
"Fellow villagers, secretly keeping foreign books is no small matter. I know you all don't believe that the captain would do such a thing, and I don't believe it either.
Since it is confirmed that the captain is innocent, he is naturally not afraid of being investigated.
We must trust the Revolutionary Committee; they will certainly not wrongly accuse anyone."
When everyone heard this, it seemed to make sense. Since the team leader was not afraid of the investigation, then let the Revolutionary Committee investigate. If nothing was found, wouldn't that prove their innocence?
Seeing that everyone was about to be persuaded, Lin Ran immediately spoke again.
"Accountant Zheng is wrong. Now it's not a question of whether to investigate or not. I said that as long as Commissioner Wei answers in public whether the Revolutionary Committee will come to search our homes as long as someone reports it, then if they do, then my family will naturally move out of the way without saying anything. You can search as you please.
But I hope that when I report you, the Revolutionary Committee can arrange for other people to come and search your house.
Otherwise, I will ask the higher-ups if our county is deliberately trying to establish a dictatorship."
"You...you are such a sharp-tongued girl!"
Wei Feng was furious and glared at Lin Ran fiercely, but he was helpless. How should he answer?
If he dared to say yes, he would probably be arrested as soon as he returned to the county.
"Commissioner Wei, you're too serious. I'm just trying to make a point. There are no rules in this world, and we can't just follow what some people say!"
Looking at Lin Ran who remained calm and composed from beginning to end, Wei Feng suddenly calmed down and most of his anger subsided.
I couldn't help but sigh that this girl is not simple!
However, he suddenly thought that since Jia Yongchang had mobilized a large number of people to come and search the house, he must have made plans in advance.
But for some reason, he always felt that Jia Yongchang's plan would fail this time.
With such a powerful little girl around, even black can be said to be white.
But he still had a bit of a bad taste in his heart and wanted to know how Lin Ran would react when she saw that she had really found foreign books in her house.
I wonder if her unshakable expression will change.
Just thinking about it makes me can’t wait.
Who made this girl threaten to report me all the time?
So, Wei Feng asked directly:
"So what do you want to do? Anyway, we have to check your house today."
