Chapter 790: Volcanic Eruption. Abandoned City
Mou Ci loosened his clenched fists. This was the meaning, but how were 150,000 people going to be arranged to enter the inner city? Most of them were not qualified to enter the inner city.
"No final decision has been made yet," he said.
"How badly was the damage to the inner city?" Chu An asked.
“It’s very serious 22 kilometres from the outer city and it’s no longer suitable for living.”
The first phase of Sheng Tang has a large area, but can accommodate a total population of about 1.5 million. Most of the areas near the outer city are industrial clusters, and although the number of people living there is small, they still account for 20% of the total population.
At present, the inner city activity area has been reduced by half. Excluding the factories, the remaining space is barely enough to accommodate the current 1 million people, let alone 150,000 more. The construction of Sheng Tang Phase II has just started, and it will take at least another year.
Besides, even if the inner city can be arranged, how to transfer?
"What do you think?" Chu An asked.
Mou Ci took a deep breath and said, "Let's wait until the severe pollution period is over, which will take about 20 days."
"I suggest that we increase patrols and show no tolerance to those who cause trouble." As Chu An was speaking, there was a commotion outside, with men and women, and even children crying.
There is not enough space, so whoever is making trouble should make room for the good people.
Not far away, there were indeed two families having a dispute. They were all people who were taken in later, not the twenty-two people rescued by Chu An.
The people who were cursing were a family of three, a couple in their thirties and an old mother.
At this time, the couple stood behind the old mother to cheer her on. The old mother pointed at a family of four leaning against the wall opposite and cursed at them, saying that their child had stolen her bread.
The accused family was the family of four that Liu had saved. Since they were all latecomers, they were arranged together with Uncle Huzi and the people who had driven or walked in before. There were about a hundred people in total. They were on the other side of the toilet, near workbench No. 1, in a separately marked area. The reason why they were not allowed to blend in with the people from the outer city was to avoid disputes.
The accused little girl hugged her father's neck tightly, shaking with fear and unable to cry, which made the couple heartbroken.
"What makes you say my daughter stole things? Show me the evidence?" The little girl's mother was also in her forties, but she looked well-educated and well-mannered, and no matter how vicious she was, she could not scare the other party.
"Evidence? The evidence is in your damned girl's hand. How could she have bread crumbs if she didn't steal?" The hot-tempered old lady refused to give in, beating her chest and stamping her feet. "There are only two loaves of bread left in our house, and you gave birth to a slut who stole and refused to admit it. You have ruined our family. Oh... We haven't eaten for a whole day."
"You...you are so old, just say what you want to say. Why do you scold my granddaughter?" The girl's grandmother was also so angry that she was shaking all over, but she would not confront anyone, and her voice was not as loud as the other person.
"Scolding her is the least of my worries, I'm going to beat her. Our whole family couldn't bear to eat anything, and it was eaten by your dead girl. I curse your whole family to have sores in the mouth and tongue, and to die a miserable death." The old lady continued to fire.
"My daughter didn't steal anything. If you continue to spread rumors and curse at her, don't blame me for being rude." The girl's father clenched his fists, wishing he could hit the old woman, but he didn't dare to get too close. The old woman was crazy. She just pounced on him and picked his daughter's mouth, leaving it red and swollen. The child was so scared that she couldn't even cry.
"Oh, leaders, please help me." The fierce lady cried and asked for help everywhere, "Look, they not only steal things, but also threaten us. How can we live?"
"It's you who are bullying our honest family." The little girl's grandmother had paralyzed legs and was protected by the couple. She couldn't go over to help, so she imitated them and cried to gain sympathy. "You are the ones who deserve a miserable death. Is there anyone who can help our family? We all work at the Institute of Maritime Physics and have made contributions to the country. Why are you bullying us?"
It can be seen that the four members of their family are not good at making trouble or swearing.
"You old fool, who is bullying whom?" The shrewd woman saw the old woman across the street imitating her and started crying miserably. The family of four across the street were dressed quite decently. "I am the victim. I have not eaten for a day and only have these two pieces of bread left. You are going to starve us to death."
The staff stood aside and watched coldly. It was not that they did not want to mediate. The young man standing on the outermost side had three scratches on his face, which were caused when he pulled the fierce lady just now. He was really angry and hateful.
"Hehehe...a bunch of refugees, dog biting dog." A citizen from the outer city said contemptuously not far away.
They all knew that these people were allowed in without being screened.
"That's right, people like this shouldn't be allowed in. They have no manners at all and are full of foul language."
Dawei and Daliu came over, and Chu Huan also came over from the other side. Both sides nodded and greeted each other. Normally, such matters should be handled by the Public Security Bureau. However, since they were already here, Dawei and Daliu did not go back to give Chu Huan courage.
He stopped everyone from making any more noise. They had heard the whole story along the way and there were surveillance cameras here so it would be clear if they checked them.
"Well...just now the person in charge asked us to turn off all the surveillance cameras to save electricity." The staff member whispered to Chu Huan.
Chu Huan, "......"
He could only walk into the "battlefield". His eyes swept across the faces of the fierce old lady and the family of four. None of them showed any fear, and their eyes even looked like they wanted to eat each other.
Didn't they all lie?
He looked at the little girl, who looked about five or six years old and should be able to remember things, and was ready to start with her. He walked over to the father and daughter and wanted to take the child over. However, the little girl refused to come out of her father's arms and would not answer any questions, and her father's persuasion was useless.
Da Liu walked over and said, "Let me try."
He walked behind the man, letting the little girl see him, and coaxed her in a stiff and awkward tone, "Good...good baby, tell your brother...where did you pick up the thing in your little hand?"
Cough cough cough... Guozi, who came up later, couldn't help laughing. Chu Huan and Shen Dawei looked at the nearly 1.9-meter-tall man in front of them speaking in repetitive words in amazement.
The little girl who just shook her head looked at Liu, blinked her eyes, and tears fell. After a moment, she finally said, "I picked it up over there."
She even turned and pointed.
Chu Huan immediately went over to check, but there was nothing on the ground, unless the footprints were counted. He immediately turned around and looked at the feet of several people, and only one person met the requirements, and that was the son of the fierce lady.
He and his wife had remained silent, but when they saw Chu Huan's gaze, they couldn't help but flinch.
"I'm giving you a chance now. Admit who took the bread." Chu Huan's momentum rose, and he was intimidating without even getting angry. "There are surveillance cameras here. We can tell with just one look. When I catch the person, the situation will be different. You all know the power of volcanic ash. You don't want to be thrown out by me, right?"
monitor?
The son of the fierce lady raised his head in a hurry, but was plucked out by the sharp-eyed Shuttle and thrown to the ground. "Tell me, what's going on?"
