Chapter 890 Uproar

"Can you confiscate the newspapers and suppress the news?" Xu Tailai asked in a deep voice. Blocking news is a common method.

As long as the news is caught at the source, everything will be easy to handle.

"I'm afraid not. The "Fog City Morning News" is published half an hour earlier than other newspapers, and the sales volume of their newspapers in Fog City is fixed. Basically, it can be sold out within half an hour. It is no longer possible to collect it now. !" Wang Sicheng said.

"What is the origin of this "Fog City Morning News" and how come it is published half an hour earlier than others?" Xu Tailai asked.

"Its predecessor was the Shancheng Evening News. It was acquired by Miss Tan from Nanyang and renamed Morning Light News Agency. After receiving capital injection, it developed rapidly..."

"Nanyang Tan Family?" Xu Tailai had a headache. Although he was not afraid of this, these people were now financial backers supporting the domestic war of resistance. If he offended them, the political consequences would be beyond his ability to bear.

So what if the newspaper office is closed?

"What should we do now?" Xu Tailai asked.

"Commander, what's the attitude of the military commander?" Wang Sicheng asked.

Xu Tailai gritted his teeth and snorted: "What kind of attitude can I have? Of course I won't be easy to be kind."

"Secretary, you can go to Mr. Liu. If he comes forward, I believe Dai Yunong will give me this face."

The corner of Xu Tailai's mouth twitched. The conflict between him and Zhu Jiahua lasted for more than a day or two. If he went to ask Zhu Jiahua for this matter, how could he keep his face?

If he really wants to ask for help, he has another candidate who is much more useful than Zhu Jiahua.

But the most important thing right now is that no matter whether it is right or wrong, the military commander cannot be allowed to file a complaint first. The water must be muddied first.

"Sicheng, I have to go out. Please help me arrange for someone to keep an eye on the military commander's side. If there is any movement, we must know it immediately." Xu Tailai ordered.

"Yes, bureau seat!"

…

"Mr. Dai, the "Fog City Morning Post" published a news story early this morning..." Shulu, Dai Yunong was having breakfast, when his secretary Jia Nanguang walked in and whispered in his ear.

"Who leaked the news?" Dai Yunong stopped chewing immediately and asked in surprise.

"I don't know, but the "Fog City Morning News" has always been able to get timely information. Maybe the Zhongtong side leaked the information?"

"Impossible. I also understand Xu Tailai. He will only accuse evil people first and will never blackmail himself." Dai Yunong shook his head and said, "There must be something wrong in some link. Let someone check it to see what went wrong. .”

"yes."

"Prepare the car, I want to go out." Dai Yunong asked in a deep voice.

…

The special industry of Zhongtong Mountain City Experimental Area has been taken over by the military command. Can this news be kept hidden? It's obviously impossible.

Ordinary people may not know what is going on, but to all the forces in the mountain city, it is very clear.

No one can explain clearly the grudges between the military commander and the central commander. They are both brothers. Anyway, they just dislike each other and are holding back to kill each other.

The conflicts in the past were just minor fights and were within a controllable range. But this time, the military commander directly led people to surround the door, a bit like wanting to completely break up.

Therefore, as soon as the "Fog City Morning Post" report came out, an indescribable emotion spread throughout the mountain city.

There are even fewer trouble-making gangsters on the streets. They are afraid that they will cause trouble at this time and become cannon fodder in the conflict between the two unifications.

A little spark at this time can cause a huge disaster.

Even the day before, everyone was still talking about the grand and luxurious dance held at the Shancheng Hotel. It was not as popular as the news that the military unified troops were besieging the Shancheng Experimental Zone and opening up.

Some newspapers were belatedly aware of the situation, but by the time the news came out and the newspaper was on the market, it was already too late for them to make changes.

I can only follow the "Fog City Morning Post" to pick up on others' wisdom.

Where the first-hand information of "Fog City Morning News" came from has become a mystery that everyone wants to know.

…

In the hospital, after a night of rest and treatment, Yan Feng's mental state was much better when Luo Yao came over.

He had already gotten out of bed and was feeding Hu Xiaoling breakfast.

There is also daughter Fang'er. I don't know whether "Fang'er" is a nickname or just Yan Fang. There were originally a family of four, but now there are only three left.

The five-year-old son has not been found yet. Generally, when a child is lost, the golden search time is within forty-eight hours.

After this time, the possibility of finding it is very small, and it is winter. If you don’t know the way home and freeze for a whole night, the consequences will be very serious for a five-year-old child. Hard to tell.

"Yan Feng."

"Xiao Yao, you're here." Yan Feng heard the voice, turned around, saw Luo Yao, and quickly stood up to greet him.

"How is sister-in-law?" Luo Yao asked when he saw Hu Xiaoling.

"The fever has gone down, but the body is still very weak and needs to be hospitalized for a while." Yan Feng hurriedly explained.

"Then stay in the hospital for a few more days and then be discharged after feeling better." Luo Yao nodded.

"Xiao Yao, come here." Yan Feng pulled Luo Yao out of the ward, "Tell me, what are you doing now, why do so many people listen to you?"

"It's a long story. I'll tell you slowly in the future. Your affairs now involve the battle between the military commander and the central commander. You have to think carefully about some words and things before talking about them. Don't talk to anyone at will. People tell you what happened after you were caught, including Zhou Ran." Luo Yao reminded solemnly.

"why is that?"

"This matter is very complicated. If you believe me, leave everything to me and you and your wife will not suffer any loss." Luo Yaodao said that there were some things that he really couldn't explain to Yan Feng.

"What about the little stool? When Xiaoling woke up just now, she asked me if I had found the little stool. I didn't even know how to answer?" Yan Feng asked, concerned about his son.

"I'm still looking for the little stool. Don't worry, I will give you an explanation." Luo Yao solemnly promised.

"Thank you, Xiaoyao. If it hadn't been for you this time, Xiaoling might have..." After saying that, Yan Feng's eyes turned red.

"Recuperate well and take care of your sister-in-law. If anything happens, tell the guard at the door. Also, your matter has been reported today. Some reporters may come to the hospital to interview you, but I hope you don't see them. Don't have any contact with them again. If you really want to say something to the outside world, I will arrange it, understand?" Luo Yao specifically warned.

Yan Feng thought for a moment, nodded and agreed. This was his trust in Luo Yao. Luo Yao had rescued him from a desperate situation. What else could he not believe?

"I have something else to do, so I won't be with you in the hospital. Say hello to my sister-in-law for me," Luo Yao said.

"Thanks."

…

When he came out of the hospital, he was greeted by Cao Hui.

"Cao Hui!"

"Brother Yao, you're here too." Cao Hui walked quickly and didn't notice Luo Yao. He was startled when everyone arrived in front of him.

"What's going on? Why did you come to the hospital?" Luo Yao asked, "Is there any news about the little stool?"

"Yes, Brother Yao, it may not be good news." Cao Hui nodded.

"Tell me about it."

"Early this morning, a district chief from Tuwan reported to our sub-bureau that a boy's body was found in a pond. It had very similar features to the stool we were looking for yesterday afternoon. I immediately received the news. In the past, they have brought the body up, and someone nearby recognized it as a small stool, but now the family needs to identify the body," Cao Hui said.

"What did you say, the little stool drowned?" Luo Yao was stunned. This result was something he did not expect.

"When he was fished out, he was already stiff. On such a cold day, even an adult would freeze to death if he soaked in the cold river water for a whole night, let alone a five-year-old boy?"

"Why didn't you find it yesterday?" Luo Yao asked angrily.

"Maybe it fell into the water and sank yesterday, but floated up this morning..." Cao Hui explained with a stern expression.

"How can I tell Yan Feng and his wife this news?"

"Brother Yao, don't blame yourself, this was just an accident..." Cao Hui couldn't find better words to comfort him.

"The mother is sick, and the child is cooking medicine for the mother at home. How could he run out?" Luo Yao suddenly said to himself.

"Brother Yao, what did you say?" Cao Hui didn't understand.

"Take me over there, I want to see the child's body." Luo Yao ordered. If it was really an accident, then it would be like this. Children fell into the water while playing. Accidents of drowning are not uncommon, but basically they are more common in summer and in winter. Rarely seen anymore.

Of course, it is possible for this kind of thing to happen to a five-year-old child whose mother is sick and cannot take care of him.

Luo Yao followed Cao Hui all the way to Tuwan.

After Little Stool's body was recovered and placed in the morgue of Hualongqiao Branch, Cao Hui came directly with Luo Yao.

That's right, it was a small stool. Luo Yao had seen that the little boy in Yan Feng's family photo had the same face as the cold corpse lying on the door panel.

"Where was the body found?" Luo Yao asked.

"It's in the pond next to the thread-making factory," Cao Hui said.

"Let's go and see where we can first."

…

The pond had no name, and was about three to five acres in size. Cao Hui led Luo Yao all the way there, and the traces of the salvaged stools left by the pond were still there.

The chief was called over.

Luo Yao carefully inspected the scene and asked some questions. Of course, the police chief must have made a record at the police station, but the record may not be as detailed as what Luo Yao asked.

These can also be seen in the transcript.

How could a five-year-old child run so far away to play? It was at least four to five hundred meters away from home, not to mention that medicine was still brewing in the kitchen at home.

Tan Wan is not such a greedy person.

Back to the precinct morgue again.

Luo Yao asked Cao Hui to find a forensic doctor. Even if he died of accidental drowning, a forensic doctor would need to conduct an appraisal to confirm that it was not homicide before he could characterize the death. This is required for all accidental deaths.

It's just that Little Stool's family didn't come to identify the body, and some procedures were not easy to carry out. For example, the autopsy required the consent of the family.

But now it can only be preliminarily determined from the body's characteristics that it was drowned.
