Chapter 161 Black and White

Su Ming spent the whole night in the room thinking.

It's not that there is no solution. This case is not a big case in essence. It's not illegal, but it's not illegal.

The key issue here is moral judgment.

The law is a criterion and a benchmark. No one has ever said that morality is a criterion. Morality is different in terms of position and identity, and sometimes it's just nonsense. So the key to this matter is how to "express". Different statements have different effects, and different directions will lead to completely different results.

So the next morning, Su Ming called Director Song, "Director, this is what I think. Since it has become a fact, it is actually meaningless to pursue responsibility. Besides, strictly speaking, no one is responsible, except for the student who withheld the animals. This matter is not a big responsibility. If it is really exposed, the two little people, Lao Lin and Xiao Lin, will be the ones who will take the blame in the end."

"I have talked about this with Lao Wang. Lao Wang's idea is basically the same as yours. Changping County is a subordinate county of Jiangjin City. Although Jiangjin City and our Yangchuan City don't get along well, they are colleagues after all, and they have their own difficulties. We were kind enough to help rescue the animals. If it is reported, it will bring trouble to the other party's work." Director Song said.

"But this matter can't just end like this, don't you think so?" Su Ming smiled slyly.

"Old Wang said that he would bring this up with the Jiangjin City authorities. These dogs were originally their responsibility. Now that we are accepting them, it will definitely cost us some money!"

"Yes, yes, yes, you understand me, leader!" Su Ming laughed.

"I knew you were taking advantage of the situation!" Dean Song also laughed, then turned serious and asked, "What are you going to do with those dogs? If we bring them back to raise them, the zoo won't have enough space."

"That's what I think..." Su Ming told his thoughts to Director Song.

That afternoon, Wang Jianshe called the Jiangjin City authorities and sent the video footage that Su Ming had obtained. Then the two sides held meetings and discussed until the evening, and finally arranged the rest.

Nangong Yan also received direct instructions from the head of the TV station, indicating how Nangong Yan should handle the subsequent news reports.

The content of the report was still the same, but the angle of the report was very different.

"It's good to handle it this way, but will someone say that we are confusing right and wrong?" Nangong Yan asked Su Ming with some doubts.

"What is black and what is white?" Su Ming rolled his dark eyes and said, "If you offend the whole world, you are white? Big sister, as a person, you can't always think that the whole world is drunk and I am the only one who is sober. This way of handling can not only solve the problem but also maximize the benefits. What's wrong? If you just follow your previous thoughts and expose the truth of the matter, it will be refreshing, but it will not have any effect except venting your anger. Insisting on exposing it will not only be useless in the end, but will affect the work of the two places and cause social instability. Who will benefit in the end? The honest people will suffer. Besides, we report it like this, and we are telling the truth, and we are not making it up."

"Why do I feel that everything you say immediately makes sense?" Nangong Yan said.

"That's because it makes sense!" Su Ming laughed.

"Okay, I'll go back and prepare the press release!"

"Old Lin, these dogs will be kept here for a while, but not too long. I've already arranged the rest. Just one dog, don't sell it anymore!" Su Ming said hello to Old Lin before leaving.

"Don't worry, I won't dare to say anything. But you have to hurry up, I can't afford to keep them for a few days. And you said you want to find a doctor for these dogs, treat them, disinfect them, etc., where can you get so much money?"

"It's okay, if you don't have money, ask Chairman Peng for it!" Su Ming patted Peng Lin on the shoulder, "Little Peng, you must have made tens of thousands of dollars in college, give some back to society."

Peng Lin wanted to die. How long has he been the president of the student union? Less than a year, and he has only been managing the laboratory for a year. All in all, the money he withheld for animal euthanasia drugs is less than 4,000 yuan. Where did the so-called tens of thousands of dollars come from?

But Su Ming had warned him that if he didn't bleed this time, the video of him withholding the funds for the euthanasia of the experimental subjects would be spread online. By then, let alone the position of the student union president, he would not be able to keep his student status and would be expelled.

In desperation, Peng Lin could only swallow his anger. Not only did he spit out the several thousand yuan he had withheld, but he also sold a lot of his laptops, iPhone 6s, etc., and collected 20,000 yuan, which he gave to Lao Lin as various expenses for the rescue station during this period.

After the matter came to an end, Su Ming drove back to the zoo.

A few days later, the media in Jiangjin City and Yangchuan City reported a piece of news almost at the same time.

Three months ago, caring people rescued a group of dogs without quarantine certificates and temporarily placed them in the Changping County Rescue Station for foster care. Although the rescue station did not have enough funds, Lao Lin and Xiao Lin lived frugally and tried their best to barely maintain it, ensuring that most of the dogs could survive and wait for people to adopt them.

But after a few months, no one was willing to adopt. In desperation, the rescue station could only start a series of cooperation with Jiangjin Medical University, donating some weak dogs to the medical university for medical experiments. At the same time, the medical university provided funds to ensure that the remaining dogs in the rescue station and the dogs used for experiments were treated humanely.

In conjunction with the news, some photos of dogs in the rescue station and the laboratory were posted. At least from the photos, these dogs are living well.

Even though there is no way, the news still caused a heated discussion as soon as it came out.

Some people think that this is a way to solve the problem, which not only reduces the burden on the country, but also helps medical institutions find suitable experimental subjects. For these dogs, it is also a contribution to mankind. In any case, it is better than waiting to die in the rescue station.

Others think that this is too inhumane. The purpose of saving these dogs is to keep them alive, but in this way, they still die in the end. Why did they save these dogs in the first place?

But most of the discussion is focused on dog lovers.

Since you saved these dogs, why don’t you take responsibility?
