Chapter 93 Rushing Upstream, We Found the Sewage Outlet!

Director Yang was stunned on the spot, exclaiming in disbelief: "Lin Yuan?? What is he doing there? Isn't he selling houses? What can he do for you?"

Hearing this series of questions, Team Chen replied with a wry smile: "He came to help people with funerals and sell houses. He also discovered this case."

"And he seems to know a lot!"

After this, Director Yang was completely confused, his head was buzzing.

Team Chen felt that there was no response on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and he felt helpless.

He could probably guess what Director Yang was feeling now, this was really unbelievable.

But now was not the time to be in a daze, he hurriedly asked: "Director Yang, please send more people over quickly, and call some medical staff, everyone in this village has been poisoned, and there are not enough people."

Director Yang suddenly came back to his senses, shock and panic intertwined in his eyes, he realized that now was not the time to be surprised.

He stood up directly from the top, took a deep breath, and replied in a deep tone: "I know, thank you for your hard work, you must stabilize the scene, I will arrange it immediately!"

"Okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Director Yang looked out the window, his expression solemn and seemed to be in a daze.

The reason why he did not immediately arrange for people to help.

Because his intuition told him that the severity of this matter was beyond imagination, far from being solved by him as a director.

There are too many people involved in the poisoning incident, spreading throughout Xihai City.

Once the public knows the details, can he suppress it?

Obviously not.

After thinking again and again, Director Yang took out his mobile phone and called Secretary Li.

It stands to reason that he should report the situation to his direct superior.

But after all, this matter is not as simple as solving the case, but it is related to the people's hearts, and the police alone cannot solve the problem.

Soon, the call was connected.

Secretary Li asked in surprise: "Director Yang, why did you call me? What's the matter?"

"Something big happened, Secretary Li!"

Hearing this, Secretary Li was shocked, his expression instantly became serious, and asked: "What's the matter?"

Ten minutes later, the call was hung up, and Secretary Li immediately rushed to Secretary He's office at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.

As for Director Yang, he immediately mobilized the police and medical staff in the bureau to quickly go to the village to investigate the case.

With a bang~~

The door of the office was pushed open vigorously.

Secretary He, who was working, turned his head to look at the door with a surprised look and frowned.

Before he could ask, he heard a cry of surprise: "Secretary, something big has happened!!"

Looking at the panting Secretary Li, Secretary He calmly asked: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Hu~~

After taking a deep breath, Secretary Li said with a horrified look: "Just now, Director Yang called me and they found that all the villagers in a mountain village were poisoned by mercury!"

Hearing this, Secretary He's expression changed slightly, and he asked seriously: "Mercury poisoning? Did someone poison it? Are there any casualties?"

"No! There are no casualties so far. I don't know if it is Man-made, but it has been found out that the fish and water in the large lake near them contain mercury. "

"We held an event by that lake two years ago. Do you remember that you attended it in person?"

Boom~~~

As soon as the voice fell, Secretary He stood up suddenly, his eyes widened, staring at the secretary and exclaimed: "How is it possible? Isn't that lake a key protected water source in our city? Isn't there a sturgeon there? And don't the local people make a living by fishing?"

Speaking of this, Secretary He suddenly paused, and then his face changed drastically, and the whole person stood there.

He finally understood!!!

Originally, he was still confused. It was just a village of people being poisoned, and no one died. It shouldn't be considered a big deal.

Even if he heard that the large lake was polluted, although he was shocked, he was not scared.

But when he remembered that the fish in the lake were sold to the outside, he couldn't sit still!

Just like Director Yang thought, this was no longer as simple as a village being poisoned or a large lake being polluted.

It is a major case that affects the entire city!

I feel chilled just thinking about it.

Although it seems that there are no casualties now, if it is not discovered early, the villagers will continue to catch and sell fish.

What will be the consequences?

In a few years, we will definitely see a heavy news that a certain mountain village in Xihai City died of mercury poisoning.

The people of Xihai City were poisoned on a large scale, and the whole city fell into panic.

By then.!

I dare not imagine that once the higher-ups hold him accountable, what will he explain? What will he report?

When I participated in the event before, I helped to promote it, so that the aquatic products here are sold well throughout the city, and even many outsiders come here to admire it.

Now, I have become one of the culprits.

So, this seems to be just an ordinary poisoning of villagers in a small mountain village.

Behind it are the lives of many people and his own future.

Thinking of this, Secretary He's forehead was covered with sweat.

Secretary Li stood aside and didn't even dare to breathe. He watched intently, waiting for orders at any time.

The next second, Secretary He's face was as gloomy as water, and he ordered in a heavy tone: "Contact all major hospitals in Xihai City immediately and ask them to set up an expert emergency department for mercury poisoning immediately. Send out medical teams to each community, commercial building, etc. in the city to give every citizen free blood tests."

"Especially in the communities near the mountain village, add more people to ensure that every citizen can be tested. Once poisoning is found, send them to the hospital as soon as possible, and the cost will be borne by the government."

"In addition, contact the communications department and send text messages to every citizen in Xihai City, asking them to go to the nearest station for blood tests Test, then notify the TV and radio stations, and urgently publicize it throughout the city. "

"Finally, contact the traffic police brigade and ask them to send more people to each street to direct traffic, patrol the whole city, publicize with loudspeakers, ask people to go for physical examinations, and be on standby 24 hours a day to avoid large-scale panic. Call Director Yang again and ask him to block the lake and prohibit anyone from fishing. All the fish in the lake for sale on the market should be recovered and disposed of. "

"Oh, by the way, let the driver wait for me downstairs, I will go to the scene immediately."

After listening to the secretary's instructions, Secretary Li nodded and agreed: "Okay!"

He turned around and left, and immediately called to notify.

Lin Yuan still had no clue.

After asking the villagers about some situations, Team Chen still couldn't figure out why the lake was polluted, so he had to wait for support on the spot.

At this moment, Lin Yuan suddenly came over and suggested: "Captain Chen, I suggest going upstream for a distance and then testing the water quality to see if the mercury elements in it are similar."

"For such a large lake, it is impossible that the mercury elements in every piece of water are uniform. If we can find where the concentration is higher, we may find some clues."

When this was said, Captain Chen's eyes lit up, and he immediately slapped his thigh and said in surprise: "Good suggestion, it has to be you, Lin Yuan, let's go, let's go now."

After that, he took Lin Yuan's arm, called the doctor who was doing the test and several police officers to drive upstream in the police car.

It took about five minutes to drive, and it was at least one or two kilometers away from the mountain village.

After getting off the car, the group drew some water from the lake and tested it with instruments.

But when the results appeared!

Everyone was stunned, and their faces were full of excitement!

The doctor in charge of the test exclaimed excitedly: "Captain Chen, the mercury elements in the water here are obviously higher!"

Hearing this, everyone realized that something was wrong.

This is the upstream. Logically, water flows downstream, so the mercury should be higher in the downstream. Why is it higher as it goes up?

Team Chen raised his arm and shouted on the spot: "Let's go, keep going up and see if the pollution is more serious."

The car drove about two kilometers and slowly stopped.

This time, everyone looked at the doctor's test with expectation.

The result was as expected, and everyone was ecstatic.

Because the mercury here has increased again.

From the results of the three tests so far, the concentration is higher as you go upstream. Doesn't that mean that the source of pollution is upstream?

Thinking of this, everyone is full of energy. They go up all the way and test every other distance. It seems that the answer is right in front of them.

But when they drove about ten kilometers, they found that there were almost no people here.

There were lush trees everywhere, and you couldn't see the end at a glance.

Because there are few people, the weeds on the ground are also very thick.

If the main road was not a cement road, I would have thought this was a deserted and undeveloped area.

Everyone sitting in the car also gradually felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

Obviously nothing happened, but there was a feeling of impending storm.

Just at this moment.

The photographer asked in surprise: "Brother, did you hear any sound?"

Lin Yuan pricked up his ears in doubt and frowned: "What sound?"

The other people in the car also listened to the movement outside the window curiously, but heard nothing.

But the photographer had a mysterious expression and said firmly: "No, there is a sound. And it is getting closer and closer, listen carefully!"

As soon as the voice fell.

Team Chen exclaimed: "I really heard it too, like the sound of a waterfall, a very small one."

Lin Yuan listened carefully again after hearing this, and sure enough, he heard it too!

The few people looked at each other, and immediately nodded in tacit understanding, ready to get off the car to check.

After getting off the car, the sound of the water flow became more obvious. Not only them, but also the people in the car behind heard it.

Everyone held sticks and walked towards the direction of the sound.

As they got closer, the sound of running water became louder and louder.

Until they reached the end of the bushes, the photographer suddenly exclaimed again, pointing ahead and shouting: "Brother, look over there. The sound of running water is coming from over there."

As soon as the words fell, he immediately covered his mouth: "Wow~~ What's this smell, it's so bad!"

Everyone only felt the smell of rotten eggs, which instantly reached the top of their heads.

That smell was simply amazing. Everyone hurriedly covered their mouths and slowly moved towards the destination.

But when they came to the location of the water outlet, everyone was shocked when they saw the water outlet!

There was a huge pipe with a diameter of more than one meter on the shore of the lake, seeping out of the mud.

A large amount of disgusting and smelly black water was constantly flushed out of the pipe, and it was scattered on the surface of the lake, creating a lot of foam.

It looked like a black waterfall. Wherever it went, the lake water was dyed into a disgusting color.

Looking into the distance, the color on the lake surface became a gradient color, and the clearer it was as it went down.

Recalling the water quality of the downstream before, who would have thought that the water in the upstream was so dirty.

Such water can still be said to have good water quality?

I'm afraid that it would be disgusting to flush the toilet.
