Chapter 182 Extreme Cold. Government Decision
Several people sat on the sofa. Koi walked to the stove to add firewood and boil water. All other irrelevant people left and closed the door.
For a moment, they were speechless...
Li Qing held Duoduo in his arms and sighed, "Every day is like Shanghai Beach, fighting, fighting for territory, snatching supplies, it's so hard."
Chu An shifted his gaze to Li Qing's face, and seeing that he was a little embarrassed, he continued, "The control outside is quite strict, you guys should be careful."
"Hey, speaking of this, I am so unlucky that I am targeted by a woman. You know your brother Qing well. I dare not do murder or arson. I just want to live a good life with my brothers."
This woman should be Niu Li.
From Chu An's point of view, it is a good thing. Being supervised by the police, even if he has any little thoughts, they will be nipped in the bud.
"Well, that's good."
The air is still again...
Gu Ye raised his eyebrows and looked left and right. Why is the conversation dying? How about he say something?
"Brother Qing, Xiao An has been missing you, but I just don't know where you are. Let's go from the bridge..."
Oops, I let it slip. We can’t mention the bridge arch.
Gu Ye really wanted to slap himself for trying to adjust the atmosphere. The koi beside him gave him a sympathetic look.
“Hahaha…” Li Qing suddenly laughed and said, “I knew Xiao An had me as his big brother in his heart. Hahaha… Don’t be afraid, I, your brother Qing, earn clean money and will not be arrested.”
He felt a little embarrassed for not replying to WeChat messages because he suddenly lost contact, and could only cover it up with constant laughter.
"I believe you, but the world is different now, and I'm afraid you'll be implicated."
Although Chu An was not embarrassed, he was a little concerned about his leg injury. He thought he could treat everything with the most rational attitude after living a new life, but he still couldn't do it when he met someone close to him.
Alas, you can’t kill someone and send him into space just to heal his leg.
She took out a notebook from her Little Bee schoolbag. "It contains a doomsday survival guide that I copied from the Internet. Take a look at it when you have time."
He didn't believe it before the natural disaster, but now he has no choice but to believe it.
Li Qing put Duoduo aside, took it carefully, fumbled with the cover, and lowered his eyelids, "Xiao An, actually I..."
Looking back on the past few months, he has mixed emotions. If it weren't for Xiao An's information, he might not be alive today, or he might be living a miserable life.
He suddenly looked up, his eyes a little red. After Li's mother died, he felt that he had no home. Gangzi and Jinli were brothers, and their feelings were different.
It was not until Chu An scolded him in the ward that he found the long-lost family affection, the irreplaceable family affection. And the more precious something is, the less he knows how to protect it.
He was afraid that his identity would affect Chu An's normal social life, and that she would be looked down upon by her friends, classmates, and even neighbors. He could only carefully protect this hard-earned family relationship.
Li Qing tried hard to hold back his tears. "Xiao An, let's not talk about anything else. Just remember, no matter what disaster happens in the future, as long as Brother Qing is still alive, he will protect you."
Chu An believed that he could do what he said, so he nodded and said, "Okay. But you have to remember that no matter what happens in the future, let Wolf Head tell me."
"good."
"Um."
The atmosphere froze again...
Gu Ye rubbed the red corners of his eyes. What Brother Qing said was very good, but he still had to rely on him to adjust the atmosphere. He promised that he would not let him down this time.
"Ahem...Xiao An, we still have something we need Brother Qing's help with."
Li Qing immediately perked up. "What's the matter? Just tell me if you need my help."
"I haven't heard from Lao Chu for a long time. Please help me find him within your ability."
Li Qing frowned, "At this time, he is outside alone..."
"I believe he is still alive. I am just afraid that the weather will get worse and worse, so I want to find him as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it. By the way, have you registered at the shelter? The government has now set up a platform for finding relatives."
"Yes, registered."
Click…
Someone knocked on the door, and Jinli hurriedly opened the door and went out. After a while, he came back with a note. Director Li invited Li Qing to visit the South City Branch.
When mentioning Director Li, Chu An thought of Old Wang from the Xicheng Branch. He wondered how he was doing now.
"We really just want to sit down and drink tea and chat. It's not what you think." Li Qing explained hurriedly, "The police force in the police station is less than 30% now, and the quality of the joint defense team members is uneven. Once the armed police leave, they will not be able to maintain the public security of City C, so they want to recruit me."
"Aren't the armed police local armed forces? Why are they leaving?" Chu An frowned. He had never heard of it in his previous life.
"According to rumors, they went to support other provinces. This disaster is global in nature. City C is the least affected city among all the affected provinces, even in other countries."
City C was definitely not like this in the previous life. In the end, even the base could not be maintained.
"It's not that our disaster was not serious. It's mainly because the government handled it properly and didn't lose too much military and political power. In some provinces, the military and political power were completely paralyzed and controlled by some organizations."
Chu An understood that the government's attitude towards disasters in this life was indeed different. But why was it different?
Before she could ask, Li Qing had already started answering.
"I heard that it was the result of Secretary Tang's insistence." He said mysteriously, "Because he was too young before, he didn't accomplish anything big in a government setting where seniority is valued.
But after the rainstorm, he took prompt action, took on the responsibility, and made many decisions for the striking mayor.
For example, stop ineffective rescue operations, rescue and salvage important supplies as soon as possible, distribute relief food, open trading markets, allow people to trade with currency, etc.
Even though the shelters have only just been opened, the government has actually been working quietly all along, focusing their energy on areas that are truly threatening to the people.”
Chu An raised his eyebrows, motioning for him to continue.
Li Qing kept the secret, "Hey, just telling stories is boring, why don't we talk while eating?"
Chu An rolled his eyes at him and said, "Hurry up and tell me."
Li Qing asked Jinli to prepare the meal, and then he said slowly, "I know you came here because you are worried that I will be punished by the government. In fact, the government doesn't even look at people like me.
In the months since the natural disaster, the government has mobilized the entire city to quietly take over the Guoxin Security Training Base. They had real guns in their hands, and they also captured the legal person Zhao Gao, and helped Beijing City eliminate a hidden danger.
As far as I know, they also eliminated two gang bosses with lethal weapons, suppressed at least three corporate groups with armed forces, and cleared out six or seven international spy dens and three pyramid schemes with nearly 10,000 people.
Let’s put it this way, all social groups that used to have a certain influence in society, regardless of their nature, will be taken down.
Secretary-General Tang is really courageous. If one of these people stands up, the situation in City C will change.”
