In the morning, early six o'clock.

In summer, the sun rises relatively early, and this time is also the cooler part of the day. The breeze blows and is very refreshing.

After breakfast, Dong Xuebin slipped out of Xie Huilan's house and walked quietly along the corridor like a thief. Seeing that there was no one around, Dong Xuebin didn't make an elevator, at least not in Xie Huilan's house was on the same floor. If there was an acquaintance in the elevator, it would be difficult. He walked down the stairs of the emergency passage one by one, stepped out of the corridor, Dong Xuebin secretly exited County Party Committee Family Compound, and finally no one noticed him.

In the distance, Mercedes Business is covered with tree leaves and traces left by rain.  The Power of Time and Wealth 233

Dong Xuebin opened the door and got in the car. He drove the car to a not very formal car wash on the side of the road. He paid five yuan to wash the car. Then he went all the way north and arrived at the County Public Security Bureau compound early and entered the office. In the room, he lit a cigarette and made a cup of tea. Dong Xuebin began to look through the previous case files, hoping to solve a few more cases as soon as possible and strengthen his qualifications in order to win the nomination of Zhengke Level.

But he searched and searched, but he couldn't find a case that would allow him to gain political achievements.

Also, if the case was so easy to solve, it wouldn't appear in this file.

Dong Xuebin couldn't help but worry about it, what should I do? Case, where is the case?

Maybe he heard the call of Dong Xuebin, and the phone suddenly chirped. Looking at the caller ID, it was clearly the number of Command Center. Eighty percent of the calls from Command Center were for new cases. And it is very urgent, otherwise Dong Xuebin, who is only in charge of Huitian Township Police Station, will generally not receive notification of the case, and ordinary cases will be handled by Criminal Investigation Team or Public Security Section.

Dong Xuebin answered the phone, "Hello?"

"Director Dong, I am Hao Shun." He is the new office director who replaced Hu Silian.

Dong Xuebin said coldly, "Oh, Director Hao, is something wrong?"

Hao Shun said, "County Party Committee Compound Someone is going to jump off the building. Director Liang asked me to inform you to come over immediately."

Dong Xuebin was slightly shocked, "Jumped off the building? Who? What's going on?"

Hao Shun doesn't have a good impression of Dong Xuebin, just because at that meeting, Dong Xuebin argued for Hu Silian and did not want Hu Silian was removed and even glared and got angry with the leader. This was obviously because he looked down on him Hao Shun, which made Hao Shun very embarrassed, but Director Dong's notoriety Hao Shun was still aware of it, so he didn't show it in his tone. He didn't want to offend this plague god, "That's right, the person who is going to jump off the building is an employee of Cotton Mill. He may have been treated unfairly, so he went up. When I got to the roof of the county committee Office Building, I wanted to threaten County Leaders, and also said that I wanted to see County Chief Xie and asked County Chief to give him an explanation. Alas, isn't this nonsense?"

Dong Xuebin took a breath, "County committee Office Building? How did he get up there?"

"He broke in. Someone tried to stop him, but he failed to stop him. As a result, he climbed up to the roof through the small door."

Dong Xuebin also knew the seriousness of the situation. After hanging up the phone, he immediately drove to County Party Committee Compound.

County Party Committee Compound is in chaos, and a bunch of people have gathered outside. There are police blocking the place. Inside the compound, in front of the county committee Office Building, which symbolizes power, there are many people standing far away, including Civil Servants from the county committee and county government., there are leaders, including Hu Yiguo and Zhao Jinsong, County Party Deputy Secretary Cao Xupeng and Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee Huang Li are also looking at the six or seven-story building from below.

On the roof of the building, a countryman wearing blue overalls could be vaguely seen, stepping on the edge of the roof.

"I want to see County Chief I want to see County Chief Xie"

"Calm down and talk to me later if you have anything to say."

"Don't come here today. If you don't remove our factory director, I will jump down." The Power of Time and Wealth 233

"You come down first and tell us the problem, then we can find a way to solve it for you."

"Let County Chief Xie come out and I will tell her"

The voice was clearly heard downstairs. There should be policemen or Fire Brigade's comrades on the roof trying to persuade him. The situation was very critical. The worker's mood was very unstable and he might be in danger of jumping down at any time. This is where County Party Committee Compound, County Leaders works. If he died here, the impact on public opinion would be too bad. This is absolutely not allowed to happen. All the leaders below had a straight face.

Dong Xuebin parked the car outside, walked in and grabbed a policeman, "Fire Brigade are you here?"

When the man saw that it was Dong Xuebin, he immediately said respectfully, "Director Dong, Fire Brigade has just arrived, and the air mattress is on its way."

At this time, you rely on the rescue air cushion. Dong Xuebin's face changed slightly, "Why are you so slow?"

"When the accident happened, it was when Fire Brigade was changing shifts, so there was a delay."

Not far away, Cao Xupeng was scolding two County Party Committee Compound guards, as if asking them why they let the workers come in to cause trouble, Hu Yiguo and Zhao Jinsong also found a small seaside hovercraft from somewhere. It was full of air and was directing several Fire Brigade members to place it under the building. However, the inflatable boat was too small and too thin, so it had no effect at all.

The worker was still shouting on top, as if it was nothing serious, but because of some reasons, their leader fired him. As a result, he was not convinced, and after drinking some wine in the morning, he came to County Party Committee Compound to ask for an explanation. The policemen behind him talked to him calmly, but facing such uncultured country people, many things were difficult to explain, not to mention that the workers were drunk.

"Where is County Chief County Chief"

"County Chief Xie is not in the compound. Please calm down first before talking."

"Call her back to me or I'll jump."

Numb, who do you think you are? You lost your job and came to County Party Committee Compound? Want to see Sister Xie? Dong Xuebin almost cursed.

In another building, Hu Silian walked out with an anxious look on his face.

Hu Yiguo immediately said, "Secretary Hu, where are County Chief Xie?"

Hu Silian said, "County Chief went to the countryside to inspect this morning and is on his way back. Director Hu, how are the workers' mood?"

Hu Yiguo sighed, "It's very bad. He's clamoring to see County Chief. He might be about to jump."

At this time, an Fire Truck with an air cushion quickly drove into the compound. Several Fire Brigade members removed the air cushion, and some people went to connect the power supply to inflate it.

Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee Huang Li urged, "Hurry up"

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Dong Xuebin quietly retreated to a place where no one was around, and dialed a phone number to Xie Huilan. The first time he didn't get through, the line was busy, but the call got through the second time. Dong Xuebin hurriedly said, "County Chief Xie, you know the situation here, right? What should I do now?"

Xie Huilan said, "Be sure to save the person"

Dong Xuebin said, "But it seems that he can't see you maybe..." The Power of Time and Wealth 233

"Director Dong, do you think that after I met him and set this precedent, County Party Committee Compound will still stop in the future? If there is one, there are two, and if there are two, there are three. This gap cannot be opened. Well, let's not talk about it for now. I'll rush back as soon as possible, and you try your best to handle things over there. Remember, you must not put the workers in danger." Xie Huilan said in a more serious tone. Obviously, if this matter is not handled properly, it will cause her a lot of trouble.

Dong Xuebin's eyes were fixed, "Don't worry, I promise to save the person."

"Okay, I'll rest assured if you do the work."

After hanging up, Dong Xuebin finally figured out Xie Huilan's difficulties. It's not a big deal, but its nature is very bad. If Sister Xie comes back and meets the workers, can the factory director be removed in the name of dismissal? And also when the workers threatened their lives to get rid of the factory director? Then where does the prestige of the "government" go? What if we really give the workers an explanation and remove the factory director? With this precedent, if anyone in the future encounters any troubles and jumps off a building at County Party Committee Compound, or commits suicide outside County Party Committee Compound, then the county "government" should do nothing else and just deal with these "suicide" incidents every day.

This worker, Sister Xie, obviously cannot be seen.

But if the worker really died in County Party Committee Compound, the impact would be too bad. At least it would be a heavy blow to Sister Xie's reputation. No matter what the truth is, the people would definitely think after knowing this, they are going to jump off the building, and you County Chief can't even see you? If you had seen it, the workers would not have died. It means it is all Xie Huilan's responsibility. This is called pressure from public opinion.

It's not good to see her, it's not good to not see her either. Sister Xie seems to be facing the first test after coming to Yantai County.

Dong Xuebin feels great pressure, and she must solve the problem at hand for Sister Xie.

County Party Secretary Xiang Daofa was sitting quietly in the office drinking tea. He frowned and looked outside, but had no intention of taking care of it. Naturally, he saw this matter very clearly. It was not easy to deal with, and it was disgusting. Since the worker was crying and shouting to see County Chief, Xiang Daofa didn't bother to do anything about it. Lively, he wants to see how Xie Huilan handles the incident in front of him. If it is handled well, it will be okay, but if it is not handled well, the worker will really die in County Party Committee Compound. Then Xiang Daofa doesn't mind adding insult to injury. He himself doesn't like the woman Xie Huilan very much.

On the roof, the workers shouted, "Where is County Chief? Where is County Chief?"

Huang Li felt that he could not go on like this, so he shouted, "We will investigate clearly about your dismissal. Come down first and tell us what happened. Let's talk slowly."

When the worker saw that their tone had softened, he immediately said, "I must be dismissed as the factory director... I want to be the workshop director."

Huang Li's face changed, and Dong Xuebin became angry when he heard it, **, you've gone too far.

The worker yelled, "If you promise me, I'll get down. If you don't, I'll jump down."

Deputy Secretary Cao Xupeng was also very angry, "This person is getting more and more excessive after drinking too much."

Hu Yiguo said, "There are reporters outside, they seem to be reporters from the city, taking pictures."

Huang Li pressed the fire and said, "Is the air cushion fully charged?"

"... It's quick, it'll be ready soon."

The worker shouted loudly on the roof, "County Chief Why hasn't she come here yet? I want to tell her that if she doesn't come within one minute, I will jump down." His voice was very high, as if he was trying to embolden himself.

Dong Xuebin said angrily, "How dare you threaten the county government? Do you know what you are accused of? Ah?"

The worker stared at Dong Xuebin from the top of the building, "Don't scare me. I won't have a job to support my family. I'd rather die than live. I don't have anything to fear anymore."

Hu Yiguo frowned and looked at Dong Xuebin, "What are you doing? Don't anger him?"

But at this moment, a scene that no one expected happened happened

The weather in Yantai County has not been very good these days. There are always gusts of wind from time to time. Suddenly, a level 3 or 4 wind passed over the roof, bringing up some dust on the roof. When it blew, the worker closed his eyes and subconsciously "rubbed" his eyes. Then he suddenly swayed under his feet, as if his center of gravity had not been adjusted properly. He tilted and tilted. Under the horrified eyes of everyone below, the worker tilted and fell down.

"Ahhh" the workers in the air shouted again and again.

Something bad has happened. Many people are confused.

The rescue inflatable mattress had been inflated and was facing directly below the worker. However, due to the gust of wind, the worker on the roof struggled to kick his feet before falling. As a result, his body immediately shifted in the direction, and it was shifted several meters. With the force of the wind, everyone could clearly see that the worker's whereabouts were already six or seven meters away from the inflatable mattress. There was a hard cement floor.

At a height of six or seven floors, death is certain.

Dong Xuebin's heart was also in the air. Although he gritted his teeth with hatred, he didn't want anything to happen to the worker, because it would be a serious blow to his girlfriend's official reputation. Xie Huilan was in Yantai County's foundation is already weak, which is not conducive to her future work. If Xiang Daofa or other people with sinister intentions use the Internet or media to promote it, the impact on Xie Huilan will be even greater.

Dong Xuebin Grit your back molars, don't die, don't die

"Cushions are out of reach"

"It's over"

Many people have already exclaimed

Ten meters...

Eight meters...

Five meters...

A muffled sound seemed to hit Dong Xuebin's heart hard.

The worker fell to the ground, his head seemed to be broken, and bursts of blood spread from under his body, and he died on the spot.

When a junior clerk saw this, he vomited. Many people around him also closed their eyes, not daring to look.

Dong Xuebin's face turned pale. It's better to let him die in the end. Sister Xie is in trouble. Thinking of the words Xie Huilan said on the phone just now, "I can rest assured that you can do things" and "Be sure to save people", Dong Xuebin's heart sank, feeling that he had no chance. I failed to handle this matter well and betrayed Sister Xie's trust. Dong Xuebin is a person who cares about face. What's more, the life and death of the workers are related to Sister Xie and even his own interests, so Dong Xuebin made a decision almost in an instant.

Can't let this girl die

back two minutes

The scene flashes and the scene fades away

"There are reporters outside, they seem to be reporters from the city, taking pictures."

"Is the air mattress fully charged?"

"... It's quick, it'll be ready soon."

"County Chief Why haven't you come yet? Ask her to come over. I want to tell her that if she doesn't come within one minute, I will jump down."

Time has gone back

Dong Xuebin It's not that I don't want to go back more, but when I rescued hostages at school and dodged bullets, my back was almost completely used up. Now I only have less than three minutes of back time left on my body, and there is no more time left. At this time, gusts of breeze passed over Dong Xuebin's face, which was obviously a precursor to the wind. The worker would soon lose his balance and fall from the roof. It was a critical moment.

Work hard

Sister Xie must do whatever it takes to do whatever it takes.

Dong Xuebin came up with all his strength, and rushed out with a shout.

Huang Li was stunned and reminded, "Director Dong What are you doing? Don't stand under the building in danger."

There was no one downstairs for a long time, and everyone was afraid that if the workers fell down and hit themselves. Dong Xuebin ignored the voice behind him and ran over while looking at the inflatable cushion. The rescue inflatable cushion was too thick and too big. Now that the position has been fixed, it was too late to ask people to move it. Besides, Dong Xuebin had no reason for anyone to move the cushion. As soon as he turned his head, Dong Xuebin's eyes fell on the small hovercraft that he didn't know who brought it in the first place.

Although the hovercraft is not thick enough and the size is much different, there is no other way now

The wind is howling

Many people behind him exclaimed

Dong Xuebin didn't even bother to look up, he rushed to the front of the hovercraft, picked it up and ran to the side.

One step... three steps... five steps... seven steps...

"Ah"

"Falled off"

"Director Dong Get out of the way"

The police and leaders behind were extremely anxious and didn't understand what little Director Dong was running over at this time. But the next moment, everyone understood. Little Director Dong looked up and threw the hovercraft to the ground as if he had found the right location. However, the area was too small. Unless it was a stroke of luck, how could the worker accidentally fall there? The probability is almost zero

Ten meters...

Seven meters...

Five meters...

However, what stunned everyone was that the worker's body actually fell onto the mat in front of Dong Xuebin. Judging from the inertia and curvature, it was neither more nor less than one meter, as if little Director Dong had figured out where the other person landed.

Isn't this amazing?

But a new problem arises

The thickness of the cushion is not enough. How could such a cushion be able to withstand an impact from the height of six or seven floors? Still escape death?

The workers were screaming and calling for help in mid-air, and the hovercraft on the ground was getting closer and closer...

Dong Xuebin's prestige among the Public Security Bureau is getting higher and higher, and everyone admires him. So when they saw that something was going to happen to Director Dong, many people became anxious.

"Director Dong Get out of there quickly"

"Yes, we can't save you. Get out of the way and don't hit you."

"Dangerous"

These shouts were shouted out almost at the same time. In the blink of an eye, the workers were already close in front of us.

Dong Xuebin complained secretly and avoided it? If they avoid it, the workers will undoubtedly die. Sister Xie will be in trouble. Dong Xuebin doesn't know how much impact this trouble will have. It may be small or large, but no matter what, if this trouble can be avoided, Dong Xuebin will try desperately. He still has dozens of seconds of back, which is barely enough.

Ever since, under the astonished gaze of everyone, Dong Xuebin stretched out his hands and looked at the sky. He needed to help the worker block the momentum of landing, hoping that the hovercraft would share some pressure so that the hovercraft could bear the weight of the worker's body.

For a moment, everyone understood Director Dong's intention and all took a breath of air.

Pick someone up with your hands? Isn't this little Director Dong too cruel?

Cao Xupeng and County Leaders were also stunned on the spot. No one understood why Dong Xuebin was working so hard. Was it for political achievements? Indeed, if he can really save people and solve problems for the county government and County Chief, then counting one life, this political achievement will definitely not escape, at least one Third-Class Merit, but, the problem is that he must be able to save people. If something goes wrong, you will have to pay for it with your own life, so what political achievements are there?

He's a lunatic

Is there such a desperate leader among the cadres??

Everyone knows that little Director Dong is brave, but they didn't expect him to be so brave.

Only Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Committee Huang Li knows the relationship between Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan, and only he understands that little Director Dong is not doing it for political achievements, not for the workers, and not for reputation, but to prevent Xie Huilan from getting into trouble, so he is just. Reaching out and looking at this scene without hesitation, Huang Li was deeply touched. At first, he thought that Dong Xuebin was not worthy of Xie Huilan. The gap was too big, but now he no longer thinks so. County Chief Xie is so lucky to have a boyfriend who is willing to help his girlfriend solve problems even if he doesn't care about his own life.

One meter...

Half a meter...

The worker fell

Dong Xuebin suddenly gritted his teeth, dragged his arm and picked it up

The speed was too fast. Dong Xuebin wanted to catch it and then let go, but before he could even blink, the worker hit Dong Xuebin's arm with a shout and hit the air mattress with his hand. The boat hit, the air mattress couldn't withstand the pressure, and it suddenly smashed open. The worker's head hit the ground, and he died on the spot again. Looking at Dong Xuebin's two arms, they were also smashed at the same time, and the bones were broken.

Dong Xuebin almost fainted from pain, paralyzed, back for three seconds

Time goes back

One meter...

Half a meter...

The worker's body returned to midair

Dong Xuebin saw the right opportunity this time, lifted the hovercraft with his feet, corrected the position, and then raised his right hand first, hugging the worker's tui, making his center of gravity back to prevent his head from falling to the ground again, and then dragged his back with his left hand, letting out a cry of pain, trying to relieve the pressure of landing.

The hovercraft broke again and the angle still couldn't be adjusted.

Although the worker's head did not hit the ground, his head still hit the ground when his shoulder hit him.

another death

back four seconds

Once, twice, three times, four times

Dong Xuebin endured the pain. Finally, when the back was about to run out, he corrected the worker's landing posture and let him fall butt first on the hovercraft. With a loud noise, the hovercraft exploded. Dong Xuebin also quickly stepped back, took out his unconscious hands and fell to the ground.

"Ah"

A scream came from the worker's mouth

Not dead

The worker didn't die this time

Dong Xuebin breathed out a sigh of relief, and the next moment, Dong Xuebin fainted

"Director Dong"

"Director Dong"
