He Quan sneered: "I won't cry until I see the coffin."
He grabbed the book, flipped through it, found a page, pinched it with his fingers and handed it to Han Qingsong, "Look! Take a good look!"
Han Qingsong took the book and glanced at it. It was a chapter that mainly introduced several major earthquake zones in the country. This theory was summarized based on the earthquake works of geologist Mr. Li. It was not her original creation, nor was it something new. You would know it if you read some geology books.
He read the entire article and found not a single word that incited counter-revolutionary behavior.
He Quan approached him, pulled out his Hero brand silver-gold fountain pen from his left breast pocket, circled the words heavily, and said sarcastically, "Director Han, take another good look."
He turned to Director Qin and said with a fake smile: "It seems that this Officer Lin must be a very beautiful woman."
Han Qingsong said coldly, "Didn't Team Leader He investigate before coming? Lin Lan is my wife." He handed the book to Director Qin, but looked at He Quan, "I'm sorry, we still don't think there is any crime. If there is, then we need to conduct a public trial and debate."
He knew that He Quan was only responsible for arresting people, and he was not the one who gave the order, so it was useless to plead with He Quan. What he had to do was to follow and escort her all the way, and not let her have any accidents on the road. He had to personally send Lin Lan there safely and bring her back safely.
Director Qin read the sentence carefully, word by word, and repeated: "According to expert research data, the area most likely to experience a major earthquake in the short term is the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan-Bohai Sea area. According to various studies conducted in recent years by various seismic stations, seismic and geological teams, geophysical institutes, the Capital Earthquake Bureau, the Beijing Seismological Team and other institutions, the epicenter is likely to be about 200 kilometers east of the capital - near T Mountain."
The following is a list of rigorous data that Lin Lan obtained through the provincial seismic station, the Capital Seismological Bureau that Henry helped to contact, and foreign earthquake expert groups, including geoelectric resistivity, low air pressure, sea level, water radon content, geomagnetism, terrain changes, and so on.
In Director Qin's opinion, this is a very rigorous and reasonable speculation without any subjective assumptions.
Since last year, the Earthquake Bureau has held many earthquake monitoring and prevention exchange meetings at T Mountain. This is also a signal. Otherwise, why would you go there to hold meetings whenever you have time? Ordinary people can certainly guess this.
Since the superiors issued an order in 1974, the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan area has been under strict surveillance, so what's wrong with speculating about Mount T?
What does this have to do with the current counter-revolution?
"Team Leader He, our county revolutionary committee is willing to vouch for Comrade Lin Lan. She is positive and progressive in her daily work and has never committed any counter-revolutionary acts. She is an outstanding party member. There must be some misunderstanding. Let's sit down and have a good communication."
He Quan frowned, "I'm sorry, we are only responsible for arresting people, not for communicating and defending. If you have any defense, go to the Capital Security Team."
He waved his hand and asked people to arrest Lin Lan.
Han Qingsong: "Team Leader He, please wait a moment. We, the county public security bureau, will escort Lin Lan to Beijing to plead her case."
He intuitively felt that someone was making random accusations. After all, there were so many earthquake reports, briefings, and meetings across the country, and so many organizations could have made such remarks. Why were they focusing on just one book?
They just want to make her a scapegoat because she is an ordinary party member with no power or influence and no backing.
He recalled what his old leader had said when he first joined the army: "We, the people who have dedicated ourselves to the country, have no support far away from our hometowns. Our support is our country, our party, our army, and our people! You fight for the country and die on the battlefield. From now on, your parents, wife, and children will be handed over to your supporter, and you will never have to worry about the future..."
When he found Lin Lan, he bent his tall back towards her, held her in his arms, lowered his head and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything."
Lin Lan knew from his serious expression that he was worried. He had experienced that revolution and knew the serious consequences if he was labeled a counter-revolutionary.
He was afraid she would be shot.
She didn't want him to worry. This man, whom she resisted and wanted to stay away from at first, but later fell into his deep affection step by step, was the man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with.
She wants them all to be well.
She smiled, tilted her head and kissed his cheek, and said softly, "Don't worry, Third Brother, everything will be fine."
This too shall pass.
She was prepared when she published this book. Some people might accuse her of something, but she was ready to deal with it. Because all the data and all the speculations were not her subjective conjectures, but were written based on the reports issued by the relevant departments of the Earthquake Bureau.
She simply put the final word on the major events that they dared not report and that their leaders, busy with political struggles, had no time to pay attention to, and printed them on the pages of the book.
If she had any selfish motives, it was to clearly mark the location of Tshan City.
She believed that this book would definitely spread there, and when the local people saw it, combined with the strange things happening around them, they would definitely make the connection and become more vigilant.
Even if you don't fall asleep that night, even if you rush out at the moment of the earthquake, you will not be wiped out from the earth directly.
Countless disaster relief operations have shown that when an accident occurs, the results vary greatly depending on whether people are prepared or not.
She hopes to alert them and spread the miracles of Qinglong County to the entire region.
If you don't know the result, you can't make arbitrary guesses, that would be just spreading rumors.
She is not afraid and does not regret making this decision now.
Han Qingsong hugged her tightly, almost squeezing her into his body, "I'll go with you."
If you have to die, I will die with you, so you don't have to be afraid and you won't be alone.
Lin Lan patted his back and laughed, "Let's go. I didn't expect to be able to go to the capital at public expense. By the way, Director Han, do I have to pay for it myself?"
Han Qingsong: “…”
Secretary Li, who was hiding aside, was crying so hard, but was unexpectedly made to laugh by Lin Lan. Secretary Lin is really... unconventional.
Before leaving, Lin Lan asked Han Qingsong to wait for a moment while she went to get a pair of scissors.
Han Qingsong's face tensed: "Don't do anything stupid."
Lin Lan chuckled, "Third brother, why are you so nervous? Cut my hair."
At that time, women's hairstyles were very simple. They could either have their hair tied in a double braid like a child, or have their hair tied in a side braid, or have their hair braided, either long, medium or short, or have their hair shaved short.
Lin Lan was not used to this hairstyle, so she tied her hair into a ponytail at the back, which was neat and tidy. Many girls around her followed her example. It was fine at home, but when she went to the capital for investigation, she had to pay attention. She cut her hair into a popular female style, short hair to the ears, and pinned it with two black hairpins.
Han Qingsong was a little reluctant to let go of her hair. She had grown it long when she went to the commune, and it looked especially beautiful when she let it down at night.
However, he still listened to Lin Lan and cut her hair short to the ears, and also trimmed the layers according to Lin Lan's request. He didn't know what layers were, so he just cut her hair shorter and thinner inside and slightly longer outside as she requested.
Lin Lan looked in the mirror. Her man was really good. He actually had a decent haircut. It didn't look bad. She took out a few straight black hairpins from the drawer and pinned the hair on both sides of her temples. It looked neat and refreshing, a popular hairstyle for women.
Han Qingsong kissed her smooth forehead and then led her to the director's office.
He Quan was already impatient, and when he saw Lin Lan, his eyes narrowed. His guess was right, she was a beautiful woman, otherwise these men would not protect her so much.
She has a slim figure, fair skin, a fashionable female cadre hairstyle, and wears a moon-white short-sleeved shirt on the upper body and blue pants underneath.
But this shirt is different from everyone else's. It has a waistline, a stiff collar, and the material doesn't look like Dacron. Other people's pants are basically straight, baggy, and wrinkled. After wearing for a long time, the knees bulge, the legs of the pants are lifted, and the buttocks fall down. Anyway, it's ugly in all kinds of ways. Her pants are different. The waistline is thin, the legs are slender and straight, and there are pleats on the thighs. The trouser legs are a little small, but not to the extent that they would be cut by the Red W soldiers with scissors.
You say she is a female cadre, but she has a capitalist tone. But you can't say she is capitalist either. It's not normal for her to be so beautiful!
"Are you Lin Lan?" he asked.
Lin Lan stood at attention, with a correct attitude, neither humble nor arrogant, "Yes."
"Do you know your crime?" He Quan pressed.
Lin Lan responded calmly: "Are you determined to let me plead my case now?"
He Quan frowned, "Come, tell me your crimes, current counter-revolutionary crimes." He shook the document in front of her.
Lin Lan: "I'm sorry, to make this defense, I need to bring all the office's data, reports, phone records, and newspapers here. Are you sure you want me to do it here?"
He Quan frowned: "Forget it, let's talk about it when we get to Beijing."
Lin Lan smiled without any panic.
He Quan was unhappy and said, "You'd better bring your evidence with you."
"No offense, but you sound a little tired. Do you need to rest or should we set off now? Can I prepare some personal clothes?" Her voice was soft, without any panic or anger, let alone fear.
He Quan said casually: "Let's set out early tomorrow morning."
It was already past three in the afternoon. He was very tired after the long journey and needed a good night's rest.
Director Qin asked someone to take them to the guesthouse.
He Quan glanced at Lin Lan, then at Han Qingsong: "You don't want to run away."
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Captain He is really humorous. I am the most loyal soldier. It is a supreme honor to be able to go to Beijing and see the place where the great leader lived. I couldn't ask for more."
He Quan knew that she would not run away, and she had nowhere to run. Without a household registration and food and oil, she could not move an inch.
Han Qingsong didn't expect Lin Lan to be able to fight for a whole night. He originally thought that He Quan would catch her and leave immediately.
Lin Lan went to prepare and called the Capital Foreign Hotel to ask for Henry.
After receiving her call, Henry shouted happily, "Lin Lan, do you miss me? I miss you too. Oh, don't worry, King Sa is fine, he has been training, I just went to see him the day before yesterday."
Lin Lan greeted him and said that her family loved him and missed him, and hoped that he could come again. Then she interrupted Henry's exaggerated words and said seriously: "Henry, I have a very important thing to ask of you."
Her serious tone made Henry on the other side serious as well.
"You say."
Lin Lan lowered her voice, "Henry, please don't be surprised by what I say next. Keep calm. I have reliable information that a major earthquake will occur in the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan area at around 3 a.m. on July 28."
There was no sound on the other end of the phone. After ten seconds of silence, Henry took a deep breath.
Henry said seriously, "Lin Lan, is this news reliable? This is not a joke."
Lin Lan: "It's reliable. The Earthquake Bureau has predicted it, but you know the current situation. They don't dare to report it casually."
Henry: “I know.”
Lin Lan whispered a few more words, and Henry said that he understood and would definitely do as she said. After all, he came with the earthquake expert team and had been to Haicheng. Although he was not professional, it did not hinder his learning. Now he was doing some urban interviews in the capital and planned to put them into his documentary.
After calling Henry, Lin Lan felt more confident.
Han Qingsong called Lu Jinxiu, Director Fang and others to use the military's connections. When he arrived in the capital, he could also contact the military region there. If someone convicted someone without asking for the reason, he could ask for protection when necessary.
Luo Haicheng and Liu Jianyun hurried back upon hearing the news, "Director Han, what's going on?"
Han Qingsong was calm as usual, "It's okay, I have something to do in Beijing, your training work will continue as usual."
Luo Haicheng wanted to follow, but was rejected by Han Qingsong. Liu Jianyun suggested calling Director Gao, but Han Qingsong also disagreed.
"Don't disturb others." He also reminded the two not to say goodbye to others, saying it was no big deal and there was no need to be nervous.
He packed up his work certificate, food and oil documents, etc. He needed all the documents when he was going out. Director Qin asked Secretary Li to give him money and national ration coupons. He didn't know how long he would be gone, so he asked him to take what he could first, and he could collect the remaining documents when the time came.
Han Qingsong was silent for a moment and then took it.
When Han Qingsong returned home, Lin Lan had already packed up and was preparing to cook. She was actually humming a song while picking beans.
"I love Beijing***, the sun is rising over ***..."
Han Qingsong couldn't help but pause and stared at her without blinking. She was not afraid at all. The corners of his lips curled up and he relaxed a lot.
Lin Lan turned around and saw him coming back. She smiled and said, "Come quickly. Director Jiang gave me a piece of meat and Director Zhang gave me two fish. I'll take this as a favor."
Director Zhang is Director Qin’s wife Zhang Yu. Lin Lan has a decent relationship with her, but Zhang Yu is the wife of the top leader after all, so she will be careful in everything and will not get particularly close to anyone.
Han Qingsong went into the house, put down his bag, and took out the box of military medals. If there was any danger, he would use them to exchange for her.
After he had cleaned up, he came out to help her pick beans.
Lin Lan smiled at him and said, "Third brother, do you want to make dumplings? The dumplings on the bus and the noodles on the bus are given to others every time, and you can also take a turn once, which is good."
Han Qingsong: "Okay."
"Forget it, please. Let's just stew the meat. It tastes better." Lin Lan changed her mind.
Han Qingsong looked at her and said, "That's fine."
Lin Lan smiled even more happily, "What about eating buns?"
Han Qingsong: “All is fine.”
"Haha, Third Brother, what's impossible?" she teased him.
"You have to eat." Han Qingsong said.
Lin Lan suddenly moved closer to him, put one hand on his shoulder, pressed her soft, rosy lips against the corner of his lips, and smiled softly: "I want to eat you."
Han Qingsong's Adam's apple slid, and he glanced at her, "I'm afraid you'll hold it."
Seeing him start to flirt, Lin Lan was sure that he was no longer so nervous. She really didn't want him to be too depressed and sad. She smiled and said, "Director Han, I advise you to be pure."
Han Qingsong reached out and grabbed the back of her neck, pulled her over and kissed her, and did not let her go until he heard footsteps outside.
The visitor was Director Qin. This was his first visit in person.
Han Qingsong and Lin Lan invited him to sit inside.
Director Qin: “No.” He said to Lin Lan: “Secretary Lin, if they… insist on an answer, you can push the matter over to the foreign expert group.”
After the Haicheng earthquake, there have been foreign expert groups coming since 1976, and quite a few came this year. If the higher-ups must find someone behind the scenes to instigate civil unrest, they should push it to foreigners.
This is the safest move.
This was similar to Lin Lan's plan. She thanked Director Qin and said that she knew what to do.
Director Qin was relieved to see that Lin Lan was sensible.
He really liked Han Qingsong because Han Qingsong had made many contributions to the county, and his position as director had risen accordingly. He had already received news that he would be transferred to another region to serve as director of the regional revolutionary committee next year, not as deputy director, but as director.
After a few words, Director Qin left.
While cooking, Lin Lan discussed with Han Qingsong: "Third brother, tell the children that we are going to the capital for a meeting."
Han Qingsong: "They are not children anymore."
Lin Lan still disagreed, "Let's talk about it when we get back." Han Qingsong agreed with her.
Soon Da Wang brought his younger brothers and sisters back from school.
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Children, your parents are going to the capital for a meeting. You should study hard at home."
"Mom, then you can go see little brother San and Henry." Xiaowang looked longing.
Lin Lan: "Of course, don't worry, we will tell Xiao San that you miss him."
She then said to Mai Sui and Er Wang, "If I have time, I'll go to bookstores and department stores and buy some more tapes for you."
Mai Sui smiled and said, "Mom, don't forget to go to *** and take a group photo with Dad."
It is the most fashionable to go to *** to take photos at this time.
"Of course I won't forget it, don't worry."
Han Qingsong took Da Wang out to explain things to him and asked him to take care of his younger siblings at home.
Da Wang: "I want to go together."
Han Qingsong: "It's not your turn yet."
Da Wang pursed his lips and said nothing.
Han Qingsong glanced at him and softened his tone, "Your mother is fine."
Da Wang nodded, "Okay."
Gao Weidong came back from the district in the evening. He and Jiang Chunxia came to visit and talked with Lin Lan and Han Qingsong in the east room. Gao Weidong suggested to procrastinate. If you procrastinate, some things will cool down and pass naturally.
Lin Lan was very grateful for their sincerity.
Before dawn the next day, someone knocked on the door. Han Qingsong went to answer the door, and it turned out to be Han Qingyun.
Han Qingyun rode his bicycle all the way over, panting. He took a breath and said, "Third brother, my sister-in-law hasn't left yet."
Han Qingsong: "Did Luo Haicheng tell you?"
Han Qingyun nodded and said, "My father asked me to take this with me." He handed Han Qingsong two envelopes.
Han Qingsong invited him into the room, opened the letter and saw a letter from Han Yongfang, in which he was willing to guarantee with his life as an old party member that Lin Lan was a good party member and a good comrade. Inside the letter was money that he had saved up and national grain coupons.
Han Qingsong put the letter in his pocket and pushed the money and grain coupons back, saying, "I won't use this."
Han Qingyun refused to answer: "Third brother, just take it first, no need to come back to talk about it."
Four children in the West.
Although Dawang didn't tell them, when Gao Weidong came last night, Erwang immediately realized something was wrong. He connected the dots after hearing a few words and knew that his mother was being reprimanded. If he knew, Mai Sui would know, and Xiaowang would naturally know too.
If they were a little more willful, they would want to go with us and say they wanted to take their third brother to watch together. Maybe their parents would agree.
But they knew they couldn't do that. They should pretend they knew nothing, wait at home obediently, live and study well, smile and let their parents go with peace of mind, and not cause trouble for them.
Not only Erwang and Mai Sui understood this, Xiaowang also understood this principle. He wiped away tears from his eyes, biting his lips and saying nothing.
Mai Sui hugged him and rubbed his head, "Don't worry, Mom will be fine."
Erwang looked at Dawang and said, "Brother, Dad really doesn't want you to follow me?"
Da Wang leaned against the table under the south window, staring at a small pomegranate tree outside the window. He was silent for a moment and said, "I can't go and cause trouble."
At this time, Han Qingyun came over to greet them, and the children immediately greeted him as if nothing had happened.
Han Qingyun smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry."
Lin Lan exchanged a few pleasantries with Han Qingyun and asked about family matters. She smiled at the children and said, "Mom will go to pay her respects to *** first. In two years, we will go there to take family photos."
Xiao Wang wanted to go take the family photo, but he held back and threw himself into Lin Lan's arms, "Mom, come back soon."
Lin Lan rubbed his head, "You're taller than mom, and you're still acting coquettishly."
Xiaowang hugged her and said nothing.
Lin Lan patted him and said, "Little Third Brother said that the snacks at Daoxiang Village are delicious. I'll wait for mom to bring some for you."
After a hurried breakfast, Lin Lan said goodbye to the children. Han Qingsong carried her luggage and accompanied her to the Revolutionary Committee and got into He Quan's car.
He Quan glanced at the two of them and his eyes twitched. Damn, they have captured so many prisoners, and each of them is in a desperate situation.
She's like she's on vacation! Following a man, carrying luggage, do you want a bodyguard?
Lin Lan smiled at him and said, "Team Leader He, have you eaten?"
He Quan snorted, and then heard Lin Lan ask, "Are you used to the food? The conditions here are a bit harsh, not as good as in the capital. Team Leader He has been wronged."
You still care about him!
He Quan felt a bad taste in his heart.
They had to stop to eat and sleep when riding in a jeep, so it was much slower than the train. By the time they arrived in Beijing, it was already the evening of the 25th.
Although He Quan was arrogant, he did not make things difficult for Lin Lan because Han Qingsong was with her. With Han Qingsong accompanying her and taking care of her, Lin Lan really felt that the trip was just like sightseeing.
The capital of the late 1970s, despite having experienced hundreds of years of war, still stands tall today, bearing the expectations and calls of the world with its rich accumulation of years.
Prosperity is already beginning to emerge.
Soon after they arrived in Beijing, they were stopped by two military vehicles. A regiment commander showed his ID and negotiated with He Quan.
Lin Lan was sitting in the car and could see He Quan's face was very ugly and he looked very angry. He waved his fist and asked, "Why did you take her away?"
The head of the group that was negotiating with him didn't even stand still. He looked lazy and had a scoundrel smile on his face. He patted He Quan on the shoulder and said, "This woman is a military family member. It's pure nonsense to say she's a counter-revolutionary. The Earthquake Bureau is under pressure and needs staff recently. She's a professional. Send her to help."
He Quan had no choice but to agree. He returned to the car and glanced at Lin Lan, "You are lucky." He then said to Han Qingsong, "A county public security bureau is so resourceful. I underestimated you."
Han Qingsong: "Thank you."
The head of the regiment came over, put his hand on the car door and asked Han Qingsong about the troops he had served in. He nodded when he learned that he had been to the Sino-Indian border and Zhenbao Island. He did not introduce himself and said to Lin Lan, "Don't be afraid. We will change cars and take you to the Chinese Academy of Sciences building."
Han Qingsong picked up his luggage and shook Lin Lan's hand, "Let's go."
After changing the car, Lin Lan thanked the team leader.
He didn't say much, just smiled at her and patted Han Qingsong's shoulder, "It's okay, go."
Late at night, Lin Lan and Han Qingsong drove to the campus of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Sanlihe, and finally stopped under the Earthquake Bureau building.
A soldier led them upstairs to negotiate, and arranged a room for them. "You two will stay at the Earthquake Bureau temporarily and follow its instructions."
After he left, someone brought two large bowls of tomato and egg noodles. When she got here, Lin Lan was already determined and ate with great relish, "Third brother, the food here is really good, and the noodles are even stir-fried."
Hearing her relaxed tone, Han Qingsong looked at her and felt a lot more relaxed.
After eating, they washed up and went to bed to rest.
Lin Lan wondered, "Third brother, did you ask for help?"
Han Qingsong shook his head: "It should be Lu Jinxiu."
Lin Lan smiled and said, "Lu Jinxiu is really capable. I must thank him well next time."
After saying a few words, Han Qingsong touched her head and said, "Go to sleep."
Early the next morning, Han Qingsong strolled downstairs and used the national food coupons to buy steamed buns, soy milk and steamed buns. After breakfast, the two of them waited in the room.
At eight o'clock, a staff member came to see Lin Lan.
Lin Lan greeted him and asked, "Can I meet Team Leader Wen or Analyst Dong?"
Hearing this, he said, "Hello, my last name is Huang, and I'm Dong Lianjie's colleague."
Lin Lan shook hands with him and said, "Hello, Comrade Huang. I am Lin Lan. I have been consulting the comrades from the Earthquake Bureau for professional information." She also introduced Han Qingsong.
Analyst Huang glanced at her, his eyes unable to hide his surprise, "Lin Lan, yes, I remember now, you always wrote to us and called us a lot. Haha, I remember now."
Lin Lan quickly apologized: "It was really rude. When publishing this book, I disturbed many seismic stations, including the Earthquake Bureau. I am really sorry."
"No, I really appreciate your serious attitude." Analyst Huang laughed, "Let's go, we need to have a meeting."
He then said to Han Qingsong who was standing beside him: "Please feel free to stroll around or go out for a visit, comrade of the police."
Lin Lan smiled at Han Qingsong and said, "Third brother, it's okay, just go."
Han Qingsong nodded and watched them leave. He walked around the compound to find out what was going on.
Lin Lan was taken to a medium-sized conference room. After a while, a group of people swarmed in. One person had a very loud voice, and he could be heard shouting from a distance: "Why didn't we report it? Aren't we clear about the data? Did the team leader read the report posted in the director's office? No one can see it!"
"Lao Zhang, don't get excited. Don't get excited."
Lin Lan sat there quietly, watching them take their seats one by one around her. She was not surprised when someone greeted her.
Soon the conference room was full of people. Some had gloomy faces, some said nothing, some chattered, and some were so excited that their faces flushed.
In short, no one questioned who Lin Lan was or why an outsider attended the meeting, as if she was one of them.
Their meetings followed the same routine. At first, everyone presented their own research, but later the two factions started banging the table and shouting at each other because of their disagreements. The meeting room was as noisy as a vegetable market.
Lin Lan felt dizzy after listening to this. She figured out that they had been holding group testing and prevention meetings since mid-month, but there were two factions within the bureau that could not reach a consensus.
One school of thought believes that there will absolutely be no earthquake.
One group believes that there will be an earthquake, but they are not sure what the magnitude will be, probably no more than magnitude five.
Then they discussed going to the Beijing Earthquake Team for a meeting.
At this time, Team Leader Wen walked up to Lin Lan and extended his hand to her, "Comrade Lin Lan, welcome to join us."
Lin Lan quickly stood up and shook hands with him. "Hello, Team Leader Wen. I'm really sorry for disturbing you earlier and causing you trouble."
Team Leader Wen: "We have read your book. It is well written, but... a little too hasty."
Lin Lan knew what he was referring to. She had marked Tshan City, which was against the regulations. She pretended not to know, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood. I looked at so much surveillance data and your report, and thought you were sure it was there."
Team leader Wen sighed, "We just can't determine the exact location or magnitude. A small earthquake can cause a big one, but since the Inner Mongolia earthquake, the anomalies in the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan area have disappeared."
Lin Lan said: "Didn't he appear again recently? He sounds even more powerful."
"There is no regularity. We cannot use it to draw conclusions directly and cannot convince leaders." Reports to the State Council cannot be made unless it is at level five. If a report is made, it must be 100% certain that it will happen. Otherwise, it would be a false report and no one can afford the loss.
Lin Lan nodded, "We should make bold assumptions and verify them carefully."
After a few words, Lin Lan talked about He Quan, "Originally they wanted to arrest me and question me, but later they sent me to our Earthquake Bureau for some reason."
Team leader Wen explained briefly, "A few days ago, a rumor was circulated in T Mountain that there would be an earthquake before July 29. The workers in the mines were so scared that they dared not go down to the mines, which greatly affected daily production. The higher-ups angrily accused the relevant departments of spreading rumors and disturbing the people, and ordered a thorough investigation. The Earthquake Bureau, the Geological Brigade, and the Earthquake Team were all questioned. Later, someone found out that your propaganda book was popular there, and many people took it as proof. There were also some business enthusiasts who made random guesses about the time, which disrupted local production and life. The safety team couldn't catch the person who spread the rumor, so they ordered the author of the book to be questioned directly."
"As a result, two days ago, seven major data in the Beijing-Tianjin-Tangshan area were abnormal, and more accurate news came that an earthquake would definitely occur at Mount T at around 3 a.m. on the 28th. The higher-ups ordered a thorough investigation of the matter and asked the Earthquake Bureau to confirm the news as soon as possible."
"Because of this, we will put aside the matter of inciting civil unrest for the time being and focus on confirming the earthquake. The military will send you here to investigate with us for the time being."
Lin Lan said gratefully: "Thank you, Team Leader Wen, and thank you, Earthquake Bureau."
Team leader Wen looked at her, "Comrade Lin Lan, are you sure?" He thought that this woman was really brave. She directly announced something that they had guessed but did not dare to make a final decision on.
However, the time is not stated in the book, but is circulated among the people. Some say it was predicted by local small earthquake stations, while others say it was predicted by foreign experts. No one knows where the source came from.
He admired Lin Lan, but at the same time he felt a little conflicted. After all, as a professional scientific researcher, he still had to focus on evidence.
Lin Lan: "Team Leader Wen, it's not me who can be sure, it's you who have to be sure, your information and data. I'm only responsible for interpreting and piecing together, this is how I feel." She lowered her voice and whispered: "To be honest, the capital is a treasured place determined by the Feng Shui of Qin Tianjian in the Ming Dynasty. It is a place where the dragon veins protect the country, and there will be absolutely no problems. And Tianjin is the gateway to the capital, so naturally there will be no problems. Then among Beijing, Tianjin and Tang, only one place will have problems. Team Leader Wen, I can only tell you this."
Team Leader Wen was stunned for a moment when he looked at her. He didn't expect that she would use this to make a judgment. It was really unique.
