Chapter 543 – Commission for Discipline Inspection! (2/2)

Dong Xuebing continued to give out orders to settle this incident.

The Subdistrict Office is working together after what happened in the morning. Peng Gang, Guo Mingfeng, and Geng’s faction start to follow Dong Xuebing’s orders. Dong Xuebing had protected all of them earlier, and it is not right for them to continue going against his orders.

At the same time, the impact of the incident continues to spread.

More than a dozen of angry store owners blocked the entrance of the District Party Committee entrance. All of them have bruises on their faces, and they are shouting.

“We want to meet the District’s Leaders!”

“How can they beat up civilians and arrest us?!”

“Guang Ming Subdistrict Office’s Director tried to kill us! How can he be qualified to be a Government staff?!”

“We want to speak to the District’s Leaders! We demand an explanation!”

“Suspend Dong Xuebing! Or else, we will complain to the City! If the City Government ignores us, we will complain to the Provincial Government! I don’t believe they will not care about us!”

“That’s right! Remove him from his position!”

“That criminal must be punished!”

Almost everyone in the District Party Committee Building can hear these cries and know Guang Ming Subdistrict Office had clashed with the residents when they evict them!

……..

Afternoon.

Dong Xuebing was visiting his injured staff at the District Second Hospital when his phone rang. It was an unknown number.

Dong Xuebing walked to the corridor and answered. “Hello, who is this?”

A deep voice replied. “I am Wu Liang, from the District Commission for Discipline Inspection.”

Wu Liang? Nan Shan District’s Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary?!

Dong Xuebing quickly reply. “Good afternoon, Secretary Wu.”

Wu Liang replied. “We have received complaints about you. Director Dong, I need you to come to our Commission for Discipline Inspection now.”

Dong Xuebing’s face changed. The Commission for Discipline Inspection is looking for me?! What does this mean? Are they going to investigate me?

Dong Xuebing put down the phone and told Zhou Yanru that he is leaving. After that, he drove off from the hospital.

The Commission for Discipline Inspection Office.

It is located on the second floor.

Wu Liang stared at Dong Xuebing behind his desk with a long face. “A group of civilians had blocked the entrance of our District Party Committee Building, and they are complaining about Guang Ming Subdistrict Office’s staff injuring the residents during the eviction. Is this true?”

Dong Xuebing replied. “Yes, but it was….”

Wu Liang interrupted. “Do you all still have discipline? Beating up the civilians?! Is this how you order your men?! Do you know your actions will tarnish our District’s reputation?! Do you know how severe it is to beat up civilians?!”

Dong Xuebing frowned and replied. “You might not know about the situation. We…”

Wu Liang interrupted again. “I don’t need your explanations! I only know that you all had injured the residents, and more than a dozen of them had blocked our entrance! You all are a disgrace!”

Dong Xuebing is frustrated. “Secretary Wu, you are unfair to us. Have you got your men to find out what happened during the eviction?! That’s right. I had hit those people, but what did we do wrong?! The District is only concern about those injured civilians, and ignoring our staff is also injured?! Have you ever seen civilians armed with metal rods and knives attacking our men?! Civilians?! Those are a group of criminals!”

Wu Liang got mad. “You still dare to get angry?!”

“Secretary Wu, I am not arguing with you. I am stating the facts! If those are really civilians, we will not retaliate! But they are not! They are operating their businesses illegally and renting out those illegal buildings! They surrounded our Subdistrict Office staff, armed with knives and poles! We want to avoid them, but they blocked our path and refused to let us leave! We still have three comrades in the District Second Hospital stitching their wounds! Have the District investigated this thoroughly?! How can you all determine it is our fault!? Are you expecting us to stand there and let them slash us?! Do you want us to take off our shirts to let them hit and still thank them?!”

Wu Liang banged his desk. “There are many ways to handle conflicts! Do you all have to clash with them?!”

Damn! You can say whatever you want when you are not involved!

Dong Xuebing got mad. “I might not explain the situation clearly, but there are many nearby residents there. My staff and those residents had seen everything, and the District can send someone to verify with them! Secretary Wu, I want to ask you this! If the civilians’ lives are important, does that mean our Subdistrict Office’s staff’s lives are unimportant? I don’t believe any of your staff can remain calm when more than thirty armed civilians had surrounded and going to chop him! We are the same! I had brought my men there, and it is my responsibility to protect them!”

Wu Liang let out an angry laugh. “You still think you have not done anything wrong?!”

“Secretary Wu.” Dong Xuebing stared at him. “What is the District thinking?! Men with knives and poles had assaulted our people, and what’s wrong with defending ourselves?! Why is the District not considering us and siding with those criminals?! Is this what our country’s law is for?!”

Wu Liang is not an unreasonable person. From what Dong Xuebing said, he knew he might have overlooked something. “…… tell me what happened.”
