Chapter 285: [Runaway elevator! ]

Views:

That night.

Mr. Sakamoto learned the news a little late. He was resting in the presidential suite of the hotel. After listening to the secretary's report, he immediately became furious. Zhang Zhifeng was arrested, as were two of his entourage, and the police beat him in public. After a meal, this was tantamount to a slap in the face of Mr. Sakamoto. It was so ugly that he immediately protested to the Yantai County Government in anger and called Xiang Daofa to ask him to give him an explanation. , his tone expressed his serious dissatisfaction with the Yantai County police.

Xiang Daofa immediately asked Secretary Zhou to go to the county public security bureau to make arrangements.

After a series of twists and turns, the two Japanese were finally released.

However, Dong Xuebin contacted the Citroen driver who was beaten in the evening on the way out from the hotel and asked the couple to go to the Public Security Bureau to record a statement. In addition, when they went to the hotel, the two Japanese people first reported to the police. Surveillance video of the pushing and shoving, this case that had been quickly filed by Dong Xuebin was not as simple as before. The two Japanese were released after paying a lot of fines.

But the driver Zhang Zhifeng was not so lucky.

Knowing that Dong Xuebin's mother was critically ill and still undergoing surgery in the hospital, no one mentioned the matter of releasing her.

There is no doubt that although Luan Xiaoping's sudden myocardial infarction may have been caused by Meng Xianglin saying some threatening words to her and being frightened, in the final analysis it was also because she was hit by the inspection team's car and had been frightened before. This is the direct result. The reason is that Zhang Zhifeng hit someone and ran away. The patient is undergoing surgery. It is still unknown whether he will survive. Who dares to let him go at this time? No one can bear this responsibility!

One o'clock.

County People's Hospital, Dong Xuebin paced back and forth anxiously outside the operating room.

It’s been an hour! Why isn't it over yet

Five minutes passed. Ten minutes passed.

Dong Xuebin couldn't wait any longer. He twisted the operating room and wanted to go outside to see his mother's condition through the glass. But as soon as he moved his hand up, he heard some movement inside, and there were sparse footsteps. As he approached, Dong Xuebin's eyes tightened, and he took a step back to get out of the way. With a click, he saw a large left and right side open, and several directors and hospital leaders in white coats walked out of it.

Dong Xuebin took a breath and said in a trembling tone: "My mother..."

The deputy director of the county hospital forced out a smile and said, "Don't worry, the operation was successful."

"Thank you, thank you." Dong Xuebin was excited immediately, and went up to shake hands with them one by one, "Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your hard work."

Inside, Luan Xiaoping, who was lying on the bed, was pushed out by two nurses.

"Mom!" Dong Xuebin stepped over in one step, "How do you feel?"

Luan Xiaoping was awake. This kind of interventional surgery did not require general anesthesia. Seeing her son's worried face, she smiled and said, "Mom, it's okay. I made you worry."

"Huh, it's okay." Dong Xuebin's eyes turned red.

A doctor next to him said: "Let the patient rest first."

Although the operation was successful, it does not necessarily mean that everything is fine. There is still a dangerous period in the few days after the operation. Only when it has passed safely can you rest assured. So Dong Xuebin and the nurse immediately pushed him upstairs in the elevator. After moving to a cleaner single ward upstairs with better monitoring equipment, Dong Xuebin sat next to the patient, took his mother's hand and kissed her, telling her to sleep quickly while he watched over her.

After his mother fell asleep, Dong Xuebin was also exhausted that night.

Soon, his head fell upwards and he fell asleep unconsciously.

the next morning.

The phone rang in my ears.

Dong Xuebin opened his eyes suddenly and realized that it was already dawn. His mother Luan Xiaoping was sleeping peacefully with the patient. Wisps of dazzling light entered the ward from the outside. Dong Xuebin was afraid of waking his mother, so he hurriedly covered it with his hands. Holding the speaker position, it appeared that the call was from Xie Huilan. He stood up and walked out into the corridor. Looking at the busy nurse, Dong Xuebin leaned against the wall and answered the phone.

"Hey, sister Xie."

"Well, is Auntie okay?"

"The doctor said the operation was successful and there should be no danger now."

"That's good." Xie Huilan said: "I just got the news this morning that Mr. Sakamoto has given up on inspecting and investing in Yantai County. He seems to have contacted other counties and will go there to inspect in the afternoon. Secretary Xiang seems to be very angry. Secretary Hu just told me that he seemed to have seen Secretary Zhou throw a TV remote control that was broken into several pieces into the trash can with the county party committee. He probably threw it at the secretary. Haha, you, you can put it this time Many people were offended."

Dong Xuebin apologized: "Sister Xie, I'm sorry."

"Why are you apologizing to me? You did the right thing."

"...Thank you." After saying a few words, he hung up.

With Xie Huilan's affirmation, Dong Xuebin felt much better. He didn't think he had done anything wrong. He should have been legally responsible for a hit-and-run accident, and he could not not be held accountable for this or that reason. The law is not about playing house, not You Xiang Daofa alone has the final say. Dong Xuebin enforced the law impartially this time. Even if he offended many people in the Xiang department, he still had a clear conscience.

Mr. Sakamoto canceled the investment, and things here are finally over.

Without this thought, I believe that the Public Security Bureau and the Procuratorate will not let Zhang Zhifeng go. He will be punished for whatever crime he deserves. However, Dong Xuebin has no plans to end it. He has not forgotten that the reason why his mother almost died and has not passed the critical period yet is that the old man Meng Xianglin is the culprit. Dong Xuebin is a person who must avenge his revenge. Of course I have to settle the score with him!

Back in the ward, my mother was already awake.

Luan Xiaoping smiled at her son, "You stayed with mom all night?"

"Well, are you feeling better?"

"Much better. By the way, the driver who caused the accident..."

"He has been arrested and will definitely be banned from driving for life. We don't know yet whether he will be sentenced or not."

Luan Xiaoping looked anxious, "Isn't that person from the inspection team? If you catch him, will you..."

Dong Xuebin brought a glass of water to his mother and asked her to drink it, "It's okay, who am I, your son? I enforce the law impartially and arrest people, who dares to say anything?" Seeing his mother drink the water, Dong Xuebin put the cup on the table As soon as he put it on, he looked at her seriously and said, "Mom, tell me, what did Meng Xianglin tell you when you were sick? Was he threatening you? He said that if you pursue the case, I will not be able to keep my position. ?”

Luan Xiaoping sighed, "Absolutely."

"Sure enough!" Dong Xuebin was heartbroken, "This old girl!"

Bin, forget it, mom is fine now. "Luan Xiaoping was afraid that he would cause trouble again.

never mind? How could Dong Xuebin let it go? His mother almost died. For him, this was a blood feud!

Many people in the Public Security Bureau are obviously well aware of Dong Xuebin's situation. After going to work in the morning, I heard that Director Dong's mother almost died of myocardial infarction after being frightened by Meng Xianglin. Several people who were familiar with Dong Xuebin called to inquire about the situation, including Liang Chengpeng, including Liang Chengpeng, finally said that since the driver who caused the accident had been caught, he should stop being impulsive. Director Liang was afraid that he would fight with Meng Xianglin and beat him up. Others may not be able to beat up state officials, but everyone knows that Director Dong can definitely do it.

Dong Xuebin agreed, but he didn’t think so in his heart.

At noon, Dong Xuebin prepared to go downstairs to have something to eat after serving his mother.

The so-called enemy is on a narrow road. As soon as he reached the elevator entrance at the other end of the corridor, he saw Meng Xianglin, the director of the Investment Promotion Bureau.

Meng Xianglin came to see a doctor today. He is about 50 years old and cannot be healthy everywhere. He had cerebral thrombosis when he was 40 years old. He comes to the hospital every year to get an intravenous drip and open his blood vessels. Originally, in the middle of the year Just after the fight, Meng Xianglin was furious when he heard that Mr. Sakamoto had canceled the investment in the morning. He had put a lot of effort into this investment inspection, but it ended up being ruined by Dong Xuebin. He failed to achieve political achievements and the official Meng Xianglin was so angry that his brain almost exploded. As a result, when he was shaken, there were signs of cerebral thrombosis again, and he became dizzy and brain-swollen, so he asked for leave and came to the hospital for a check-up.

Dong Xuebin saw Meng Xianglin.

Meng Xianglin also saw him, his face suddenly changed, and he hated him in his heart.

Looking at Meng Xianglin's expression, Dong Xuebin became angry and paralyzed. I haven't settled the score with you yet, and you're still staring at me

"Meng! What did you say to my mother yesterday?"

Meng Xianglin said with a straight face: "What do you mean?"

"What do you think?" Dong Xuebin stared directly into his eyes, "Are you too wicked? My mother was hit by a car! You still f*cking scare my mother! My mother almost died at night. You Do you know? Don’t act like you’re okay! I saw the surveillance video of the hospital! You were in the ward when you saw my mother getting sick and you didn’t even turn around. Go? Are you still human?"

Many people heard the quarrel, and everyone looked sideways.

Meng Xianglin said with a gloomy face: "Stop cursing with me! Are you still a state cadre?"

"I want to fucking ask you! You scared my mother to death! Not only did you refuse to save her, you didn't even call a doctor! Are you a state cadre? Huh?"

"Don't push everything on me! I didn't say anything to your mother! It was her..."

"You are your uncle!" Dong Xuebin said angrily: "If you hadn't threatened my mother! Would my mother have myocardial infarction?"

Meng Xianglin was not angry, pointed at him and said: "Tell me clearly! What did I threaten her with?"

After arguing for a while, Meng Xianglin said "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you" and then went over there for a check-up. Only then did Dong Xuebin realize that Meng Xianglin was not here to visit a doctor, but came to the hospital because of poor health. , and became even more angry for a moment, Damn it, my mother suffered a myocardial infarction due to you. Not only did you die without knowing your fault, but you didn’t even have the intention to visit the doctor? You don't take my mother and me seriously, do you

"Director Dong, calm down," a nurse said.

The head nurse also came over, "You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll go downstairs and buy some for you?"

Dong Xuebin suppressed his anger and said, "Thank you, no need."

Looking at the direction Meng Xianglin was leaving, Dong Xuebin turned around and pressed the elevator button, and began to figure out how to clean up this old thing. Beat him up? This is a way to vent his anger, but the consequences will be too serious. This is not a criminal, but a state cadre, a leader in the agency. If he hits someone badly, he will be charged with it. Xiang Daofa will probably take advantage of it. Withdrawing himself was what his enemies wanted to see.

But what to do

Ding, the elevator opened and there was no one inside. Dong Xuebin walked in and pressed the button for the first floor.

Is there any way to deal with her without taking responsibility

Think and think, think and think.

Fifth floor…

Fourth floor…

Third floor…

Phew, the elevator slowed down and stopped on the third floor.

But before the elevator could open to pick up people, there was a harsh roar and the elevator lights went out!

Dong Xuebin was startled. As soon as he realized what he was doing, he held on to a metal handrail in the elevator. His feet trembled, and there were several loud noises coming from above. The next moment, Dong Xuebin felt that he was suddenly in the middle of the elevator. He fell into a state of weightlessness, and his body felt dizzy!

not good!

Dong Xuebin's heart skipped a beat!

The elevator is falling! Falling at a rapid speed!

paralysis! The elevator is broken? dying

A second after this thought flashed through, there was a roar, and a huge impact force came from Dong Xuebin's feet. The elevator suddenly hit something below. It stopped, but the shock was definitely no less than There was a magnitude 10 earthquake, and the lamp above his head fell to pieces. Dong Xuebin's legs were also numbed by the shock, and he fell to the ground, unable to stand up.

pain!

My whole body hurts terribly!

Dong Xuebin breathed in and out, holding his hands, looking in the dark elevator with lingering fear. He could vaguely hear someone shouting something outside. The voice was very subtle, and only a little noise slipped in. It seemed that someone had noticed The elevator fell out of control.

one second…

Two seconds…

The elevator stopped there motionless, with no other changes.

Dong Xuebin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Even though he had experienced a lot of life and death, he was so frightened at this moment that he wouldn't know what it would be like if it were anyone else.

Fortunately, the danger is over, phew.

Huh! Wait a minute!

Dong Xuebin, who was waiting for rescue in the elevator, was suddenly startled, blinked his eyes, and he suddenly became energetic!

Got it!

That’s it!

three minutes! !

The screen flashed!

The pain disappears in vain!

Dong Xuebin's head was dizzy and his body was swaying. The next moment, the room in his sight became brighter. Several beams of light hit the corridor from all sides. He was in front of a window on the fifth floor of the hospital. Opposite was the elevator. There were many nurses beside him. and the patients were looking at him.

"Director Dong, please calm down."

"You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll go downstairs and buy it for you?"

The nurse and head nurse stood next to Dong Xuebin and talked to him.

Dong Xuebin clenched his fist and time went back, "No, thank you."

His eyes were determined, he turned his head, reached out and pressed the elevator button. The elevator was still on the first floor. According to his memory, it seemed that the elevator had stopped at the second and fourth floors. It would take less than a minute to get up. , he was afraid that something would change, so after pressing the button for the elevator, he said to the little nurse: "Excuse me, if the elevator arrives later, please help me to stay for a while, I will be back soon."

The nurse nodded, "I understand."

"Thank you very much!" Dong Xuebin turned around and ran to the west.

As soon as the corridor turned a corner, Dong Xuebin saw Meng Xianglin walking in front. This was the time when he had just finished arguing with Dong Xuebin.

"Wait!" Dong Xuebin shouted.

Meng Xianglin was discussing his condition with a doctor when he turned around and asked, "What are you doing?"

Dong Xuebin suppressed his disgust for him and said quickly: "I want to tell you something, let's go, let's talk over there."

"I don't have anything to tell you!" Meng Xianglin didn't give him any face.

Dong Xuebin sneered, "What's the matter? You don't even dare to talk to me?"

Meng Xianglin's face became angry, he glanced at the doctor next to him, and walked towards Dong Xuebin with a stern face. He was not afraid of Dong Xuebin, let alone that he would dare to attack him. Even in public, he didn't have the courage. Seeing this, Dong Xuebin turned around and took him back the way he came, towards the elevator entrance. Far away, Dong Xuebin saw the nurse picking up the elevator that had just closed with her hand and opening it left and right.

"Where are you going?" Meng Xianglin looked at him, "I still have something to do!"

Dong Xuebin said: "We said in the elevator that there are too many people here and it is inconvenient."

Meng Xianglin didn't understand what he was going to do, and frowned, "If it's about your mother, don't talk about it, I don't have time!"

"It's not that. You'll know when you come in."

The nurse asked Director Dong of the elevator, and the elevator arrived. "

"Thank you." Dong Xuebin smiled at her and entered the elevator first.

Meng Xianglin hesitated, looked around, and then walked in. There were surveillance cameras in the elevator, so Meng Xianglin was relieved, knowing that Dong Xuebin did not dare to come.

Click, Dong Xuebin pressed the button on the first floor.

At this time, the elevator slowly moved inward and was about to close.

But suddenly, Dong Xuebin took a big step and got out of the elevator.

Meng Xianglin was stunned, "You..."

Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "If you want to think about something, go down to the first floor and wait for me."

After saying this, the elevator squeaked shut. Meng Xianglin, who was trying to get out, almost got his nose pinched before he could get out in time. Meng Xianglin was immediately angry. The man surnamed Dong was playing a trick on him!

This little bastard!

Meng Xianglin hammered the elevator down and watched the elevator descend level by level.

Fifth floor…

Four floors…

Three floors…

Just when Meng Xianglin was still scolding Dong Xuebin in his mind, an unexpected protrusion occurred. The elevator lights suddenly went out. With a gasp, it seemed that the cables or other connecting devices on the elevator were broken, or there was something wrong with the devices below. The elevator had no warning. Falling suddenly and rapidly!

Eight meters…

Six meters…

Four meters…

It feels like falling off a cliff!

Meng Xianglin's face turned green, and for a moment he was out of his wits. The shadow of death shrouded all around!

It's over - this is the only sentence in Meng Xianglin's mind!

Boom!

The elevator crashed below! ! RA
