Chapter 343 Restoring the Facts
In just one afternoon, the news of the conflict between the residents of Sea City and the hunting team members once again spread throughout the Hope Shelter.
Just as people were arguing endlessly about this topic, a somewhat unfamiliar deep male voice came from the radio: "Attention, residents of the Hope Shelter, this is the Legal Affairs Department, I am Director Jin Jia, and I have an important announcement to make.
A gathering will be held at 8:30 tonight in the square in front of the shelter. The Department of Justice will discuss and resolve today's conflict with all residents. Please attend on time.
Notify me again..."
Whether they were workers in the cultivated areas or team members in training, whether they were middle-aged people in their forties or fifties or children of only a few years old, they all heard the announcement from the Department of Justice at this moment.
Most residents already knew that Lin Xiaoxiao had established the Government Affairs Office, because both the Civil Affairs Department and the Legal Affairs Department were recruiting people recently, and even the hunting team and the guard team were expanding their recruitment.
Many residents have successfully applied for new jobs and are waiting to start their new jobs, but this is the first time they have heard the news announced by a staff member other than Qian Duoduo.
The party notice was like a drop of water dropped into a frying pan, instantly making the already arguing crowd boil over.
"Today's incident actually requires us to help solve it together? Aren't they just asking us to go over and watch the fun?"
Glancing at the loudspeaker that was still repeating the announcement, a man in his thirties in the crowd waved his hand: "Things like this are just a formality. The higher-ups have already decided to let us just go in and observe.
It can be regarded as killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, so that some unscrupulous people will not pick up the bowl to eat and then put it down to curse."
Her words were echoed by many people. After all, most of them had participated in work before the end of the world and had seen too many so-called voting activities under the banner of democracy.
Whether the vote was watered down or manipulated, these activities that claim to involve the public are mostly gimmicks. They do not believe that the matter handled by the Department of Justice is really something they can decide.
"The Legal Affairs Department must have rules for this kind of thing. It's good to make an example of someone. We're already living a good life. Don't be like those greedy people who only care about causing trouble."
The older woman in work clothes deftly flipped the barbecue in her hands, wiped the sweat from her forehead and pointed to her stall.
"Our Director Lin is such a good person. He knew that we were setting up stalls here at noon and just told us to pay attention to hygiene and fire prevention. He didn't charge any stall fees or taxes.
How can there be people who are dissatisfied with such a good person and such a good policy? Are they blind to the suffering of those kids in the hunting team? "
Her words immediately attracted the approval of many people around her, most of whom were doing small businesses in the square below the dormitory building during the lunch break.
"Oh, since you guys have benefited, of course you're on the side of the hunting team. The barbecue food and other small items you guys sell are all obtained through cooperation with the hunting team, so you're definitely on their side."
Qi Shao pointed at some young girls in the square with a lewd look in his eyes and said, "And you women, you can't wait to get yourself into the beds of those hunting team members.
You guys are living off them, enjoying the good life, while the hardest and most tiring work in this shelter is done by us unfortunate people. We want to ask them for an explanation!"
Not only him, a group of people from Haicheng also appeared in the square, shouting and crying, expressing their grievances.
Similarly, the girls who were pointed out by Qi Shao immediately turned black-faced. They never thought that they would be slandered like this.
"Can you please keep your mouth clean? Which eye of yours saw us having that kind of relationship with the hunting team?"
Some of the more violent-tempered ones were about to rush up and beat Qi Shao on the spot. The crying Haicheng residents immediately bumped into the girls when they saw them rushing up, and the scene became more and more chaotic with the pushing and shoving.
However, this time the hunting team members appeared in time, and the wind and water flow once again worked together to calm down the people who had lost their minds.
The originally neatly arranged stalls were scattered and fell to the ground, and various ingredients mixed with seasonings were smeared on many people's faces and bodies. The group of people who were originally noisy rubbed their messy hair and supported each other and returned to the dormitory building under the gaze of the hunting team members.
No one dared to speak out in resistance, because the team leader this time was Feng Yu, who was beside Lin Xiaoxiao. No one dared to resist his stern face and powerful strength.
Watching the crowd recede like a tide, Feng Yu turned around and instructed the two hunting teams he brought with him: "Keep an eye on them and don't let the conflict escalate."
Not only here, except for some hunting team members who are performing important tasks, most of the hunting team members are sent separately to various parts of the refuge to prevent and stop conflicts.
This was the protection measure that Lin Xiaoxiao had instructed the Legal Affairs Department to arrange before the evening party. This conflict would gradually escalate with people's discussion and time, and armed suppression was essential.
Of course, fearing that the hunting team members who were one party to the conflict would further provoke conflicts, Lin Xiaoxiao also asked Lin Yu, Chu Xiao, Yang Lan, and Sun Liangliang to follow the hunting team as captains to maintain order and safety in the refugee area.
Soon after the lunch break, residents noticed that there were members of the hunting team in the dormitory building, the restaurant, inside the shelter, and in the cultivated planting areas outside the shelter.
They wore various leather armors and golden badges on their chests, standing silently and patrolling back and forth at various gathering points.
Some of them were brave enough to go up and ask what was going on, but after being met with cold stares, they all returned to their jobs honestly.
At 8:30 in the evening, most of the residents came to the square in front of their doors under the protection of the hunting team. The chilly spring breeze made people shiver.
After everyone found their own seats, either sitting or standing around the center of the square, a man in golden armor wearing a black combat uniform appeared in the center of the square.
After skillfully introducing himself, Jin Jia swept his gaze over all the residents present: "I believe everyone is aware of the two conflicts that occurred recently. Today, on behalf of the Department of Justice, I would like to jointly complete the judgment of this incident with your witness and support.
The refuge doesn't belong to any one person or family; it belongs to everyone who lives here. Now, I'd like to ask my assistant, Tianwen, to re-explain the clear context of this conflict."
At Jinjia's signal, Tianwen walked forward and greeted the residents warmly, then she stepped aside to reveal the large screen behind her, on which the first page of content was already displayed.
"According to the Department of Justice's investigation, Qi Shao took the initiative to question several members of the hunting team. It is true that hunting team member Shasha injured Qi Shao's ear.
Qi Shao's suggestion that the hunting team members had higher incomes than him was true.
Qi Shao's suggestion that many women took the initiative to throw themselves into the arms of hunting team members and were suspected of engaging in prostitution is purely fictitious.
It is true that Qi Shao used the pretext of protecting others to forcibly molest and violate ordinary innocent women.
After reading the first page, Tianwen looked at the residents present with a smile: "This is the conclusion our Legal Affairs Department has reached through investigation and interviews. Now I will use this conclusion to restore the true situation of the incident."
