Chapter 1026: Silent protest
The crowd was getting bigger, and seven to eight people joined in. Dong Xuebing walked out and stood there looking at them.
The crowd was more than fifty people.
The crowd spoke among themselves angrily.
“How can they arrest people? This is too much! These government officials only take care of their kind.”
“My son was also brought away in the middle of the night yesterday.”
“My mother is in her sixties and was arrested early this morning. How can they do this?”
“That’s right! Dong Xuebing is a corrupted official! How can they arrest us for protesting?!”
“I don’t believe what the news reported about Dong Xuebing’s asset! He must have gotten his money illegally!”
“They are trying to cover up for him! That’s why they arrested my son as a warning to others!”
“Even if they should not attack him, he is fine! I heard he is not injured! How can the police arrest us?!!”
“I am not leaving until the Public Security Bureau release son!”
“Yes! I am not leaving until they release my father! We will not leave!”
Everyone was angry with Dong Xuebing.
A passerby looked at the crowd and shook their heads. Some left, and some stood there to look at them. Most people believe the news reports about Dong Xuebing’s assets. If he had gotten his asset illegally, the TV station and City Government would not issue any explanation. The City Party Secretary and Mayor dared to issue this explanation. The Discipline Inspection had not taken action against Dong Xuebing, meaning they knew about it long ago. They knew the rumors were wrong. Of course, Dong Xuebing did not retaliate after being attacked also convinced them, and people stopped scolding him online.
Other people accepted the explanation but not the people in the crowd.
Their relatives were arrested because of Dong Xuebing, and they stubbornly refused to accept the explanation issued by the authorities. They all turned their hatred against him even if they knew he was innocent. To them, Dong Xuebing was still a corrupt official.
This was human nature.
They only believe their relatives and loved ones.
Dong Xuebing understood their feelings and walked out of the Public Security Bureau compound. He stood before the crowd.
“Who are you?!”
“When are you all going to release my son?!”
“He is not from the Public Security Bureau! He is Dong Xuebing! I saw him on TV before.”
“It’s him! Dong Xuebing!”
Everyone got agitated and started scolding.
“Spit!”
“Corrupted official!”
“Release my mother now!”
After what happened previously, no one dared to lay a finger on Dong Xuebing.
The officer was relieved and stopped the other officers from getting closer. As long as the crowd was not attacking Dong Xuebing, they did not need to get too close.
Dong Xuebing looked at the crowd. He was frustrated but maintained his cool. “It is cold and windy today. Just go back and wait for the news first. I promise you all that as long as your relatives are not the mastermind or had plotted that incident, the Public Security Bureau will release them.”
“Bullshit!”
“Spit! You all must release them immediately!”
“Release them now, or we will not leave!”
“We will just stand here and not attack anyone! I don’t believe they will not release our relatives!”
“You deserved to be beaten up!”
“That’s right. You deserved to be beaten up! How can you all arrest my son?!”
Dong Xuebing doesn’t know what to say. “It is useless to remain here. I am the victim of this incident. I will tell the Public Security Bureau to release your relatives if they are not the mastermind or have not incited the crowd to attack me. Just go back first. I promise your relatives will be released today.”
“Promise my ass!”
“Release them now!”
The crowd’s angry scolding quickly covered Dong Xuebing’s voice.
Two cars drove closer and stopped by the roadside. City Party Secretary Wan Fanglei and City Mayor Zhong Zhengwei saw what happened. Other City Party Committee members’ cars also arrived. It was not because they heard about it. It was because this was the only road to the City Party Committee Building.
“What is going on?”
“What happened?”
Wan Fanglei and Zhong Zhengwei frowned. The previous incident had caused a great impact, and they were worried when they saw the crowd outside the Public Security Bureau.
A Police Officer ran over and explained the situation to them.
Liu Hanqing, Luo Haiting, and other staff arrived.
The people saw them and continued to scold Dong Xuebing.
“You all are just covering up for each other!”
“Dong Xuebing! You are corrupted!”
“Stop pretending! You don’t care for the people at all!”
Wan Fanglei was relieved as he saw the situation was under control. He gave a few instructions to the Police Officer and was about to leave.
The other government leaders saw the crowd was not going to attack Dong Xuebing, and they got back into their cars.
Dong Xuebing was helpless about the situation. When the leaders and other staff were about to leave, something happened.
Crack!
A large crack appeared on the frozen river appeared suddenly!
