Chapter 408 Reporter
He Feng looked at He Yuzhu who had just come out, knowing that this matter must not be known to the people in the Siheyuan: "Zhuzi, you go back first, it's okay."
He Yuzhu was already sleepy, so he went back in a daze. After all, this was the Public Security Bureau's business, and he was just a cook in a steel mill.
He Feng asked the comrades from the Public Security Bureau to go in. It seemed that something big must have happened: "What happened? Did they find another dead person there?"
Who knew that the man looked at He Feng and said, "Director, Captain Zhao asked me to report to you that there are at least twenty bodies down there, look."
He Feng was extremely anxious, as he knew very well that such a major case happening in his jurisdiction was definitely not a good thing. It would not only affect his reputation, but it would also bring him tremendous pressure and responsibility.
And the sudden appearance of more than twenty corpses is more than I can bear. It seems I have to report this matter to my superiors.
He Feng stared at the other person and said hurriedly, "Wait outside for a moment. I'll get dressed and go to the scene to check the situation right away."
After that, He Feng quickly began to change his clothes, and his mood became heavier. Because he realized that the seriousness of this matter might be beyond his control, and he was not sure whether he had the ability to calm this storm.
When He Feng arrived at the scene, Zhao Lei and Zheng Qiang came forward. He Feng's eyes fell on them and asked anxiously, "What's the situation?"
He Feng is now looking at the twenty or so corpses lying in front of him. Although he is not afraid, he is still very angry. After all, a major case may be happening here.
Now that I am the director of the Public Security Bureau, I naturally have to find out the murderer behind this and find out who is so hateful.
Zhao Lei quickly took out a notebook and handed it to He Feng, reporting: "Director, at least 23 bodies have been found so far. Please decide how to deal with this matter."
He Feng's expression became more and more solemn. He turned his gaze to Zheng Qiang and asked, "Director Zheng, what do you think about this matter? How do you think we should deal with it now?"
After all, this was the first time that He Feng encountered such a difficult situation. He felt a little helpless and could only hope that the more experienced Zheng Qiang could give some advice.
Zheng Qiang shook his head helplessly and sighed, "Director, to be honest, this is the first time I've encountered something like this. In my opinion, this matter can no longer be concealed. We should report it to our superiors as soon as possible and let them make the decision. After all, this matter is too big and we may not be able to suppress it."
Zheng Qiang also knew that this matter was not something that he, as the deputy director, could handle, and that He Feng could not handle this matter either.
He Feng knew very well that this incident would definitely have a significant impact on his career, but at this moment, he had no time to care about so much. He said decisively: "Okay, I will contact my superiors immediately tomorrow morning."
After saying this, He Feng was in no mood to go back to rest. He could only stand there and watch Zhao Lei and the others continue to dig up the bodies there.
As time went by, He Feng felt that it might be difficult to conceal this matter. However, his people were digging up the bodies at the moment, and if someone suddenly came, the consequences would be disastrous.
After careful consideration, He Feng decided to call Zhao Lei. At this time, Zhao Lei was concentrating on digging the body. Hearing He Feng's call, he raised his head, looked at He Feng and asked, "Director, do you have any instructions?"
He Feng stared at Zhao Lei and ordered solemnly: "Notify all our comrades to come to work immediately. In addition, mobilize some people from the nearby police stations."
He Feng knew that more and more manpower was needed now. After all, only with more people could he stop those who wanted to investigate outside.
Zhao Lei nodded in understanding, and then turned around to arrange for someone to go out and convey the order. After all, he also knew the urgency of the matter.
Time passed by minute by minute, and about two hours later, the sky gradually turned pale, and the light of dawn slowly spread to the earth. At this time, two more bodies were dug out, and Ma Xin was nervously investigating the identities of these bodies.
Faced with this series of discoveries, He Feng's uneasiness became stronger and stronger. He always felt that something was wrong with this place, but he couldn't tell what it was.
At this critical moment, reporters got the news through unknown channels and came in like a tide. He Feng had always kept himself hidden, and he knew in his heart that there must be a traitor in the Public Security Bureau selling the news.
Faced with this sudden situation, He Feng was a little overwhelmed for a moment. However, just when he was extremely anxious, a large number of public security personnel rushed to the scene like a god. He Feng quickly calmed down and decisively commanded them to tightly surround the scene and not let those reporters break through the defense line and enter.
The public security officers were well-trained in executing orders and successfully blocked the reporters outside the cordon. However, the reporters did not give up easily and still surrounded the scene tightly, refusing to leave.
He Feng knew that it was not a good idea to continue the stalemate, so he took a deep breath, walked to the front of the crowd, and shouted loudly: "I am He Feng, the director of the Public Security Bureau. If you have any questions, you can ask me directly."
Before he finished speaking, a female reporter in front of the crowd immediately turned her eyes to He Feng and asked bluntly, "Director He, can you tell us in detail what happened here?"
Seeing this, He Feng coughed slightly, cleared his throat, and then replied slowly: "Everyone, we have only found the bodies, but we have not yet found out the identities of these deceased. So, it is useless for you to gather here."
However, the reporters were obviously not satisfied with this answer. They would certainly not let go of such an important news clue easily, so they continued to surround the place and refused to disperse.
He Feng knew very well that if this continued, the situation would only get worse. He glanced at the group of people in front of him and said slowly, "Listen to me, it's useless for you to stay here like this. After a while, when this matter is investigated, I will hold a press conference to explain the situation in detail to everyone, okay?"
The reporters looked at each other, knowing full well that He Feng was stalling for time, but there was really no better way at the moment, so they dispersed.
