Walking in the city center, the terrified journalists are quickly lighting magnesium lights to shoot a messy city center. It''s really frightening. They even suspect that if they don''t hide a little farther, and these mobs have a slight fear of the journalists, they can rob the cameras in their hands.
Du Lin stood in the open city center with a sad face. The smoke column over him has not been extinguished yet. There are smashed shops and innocent citizens lying on the ground wailing. Durin pursed his lips. "As mayor, I feel guilty for what happened here. I will make up for everyone''s losses, free medical care, free reconstruction, and additional compensation. I promise, this is definitely the last time!"
At this time, some reporters suddenly realized that this was also a news, and immediately surrounded Du Lin. Haite and the police had been vigilant against these reporters and kept a certain distance between them and Du Lin.
"Mr. Mayor, what do you think of this parade?", a female reporter kept pushing towards it. She held a pen and book in her hands and held it high on her head. Dooling didn''t know if she could really record what she heard without looking, but it didn''t prevent him from expressing his views.
"You''re wrong, ma''am, this is not a parade, but a riot!" then another reporter who looked very calm put forward his own question, "Mr. Mayor, I don''t quite understand. When the riot happened, the army quickly cut into the city center. Do you expect this? If you do, why should you let the riot break out instead of using soldiers to deter these people in advance and avoid unnecessary losses caused by the riot?"
Not all journalists take a neutral position, and some journalists take a stand towards the workers'' Union, not that they are staunch supporters of the workers'' Union, but that the newspaper needs more popular news to earn enough attention.
If durin knew that the riot would break out and prepared soldiers for repression in advance, it was a conspiracy.
Perhaps people prefer exposed conspiracies and angry government officials to riots triggered by demonstrations.
Du Lin smiled. "This question is very interesting. If one day you go home and find your wife cheating with others, your wife accuses you that you know she will cheat, but you don''t stop her at the beginning and think all this is your conspiracy, how would you feel?" , he didn''t give the reporter time to refute, and continued in the inappropriate laughter of the surrounding crowd, "I did hear some rumors that they planned to give me some color to see when President bujo submitted me their application for parade!"
"I''m not sure what will happen to this parade, but in the attitude that I should do my duty as mayor, I informed the imperial guard area and told them that there was a parade here. At that time, the reply of the guard area was to let me send police to maintain order, but when I told them that the parade might involve tens of thousands or more people, the guard area began to pay attention to it Get up and send soldiers. "
"Gentlemen, please face up to the scale of this parade. It is a parade attended by tens of thousands of people. I don''t want to discredit the composition of the working class, but we should all understand that there will always be good people and bad people in the world. At the same time, I also want to ask a rhetorical question. If there are most good people in this riot, why will there be trouble after entering the relatively prosperous area of the city center "What''s the problem?"
"A small group of people can''t control their greedy desire and think that they can get through with the help of collective strength. I heard that someone even said the slogan ''the law will not punish the majority of people''. If these people who participated in the parade have a sense of justice, why did the vast majority of people participate in the riot? I can''t control their thoughts or predict it There will be such a disaster. Everything will be handled according to the rules and regulations. If you read the imperial law, you should understand one thing: the army is not allowed to enter the city until there is a time that endangers the safety of the city and the property and personal safety of citizens! "
Facing these reporters, Dooling played down and took it easy.
But outside the city, buqiao hid in the mud pit on the side of the road and escaped the pursuit of the army. He heard that there seemed to be no movement around him, so he climbed out of the mud pit. He knew he was finished. There was no doubt that the headquarters of the workers'' Union would never lend a helping hand to him. If they did, they would pull the trouble away together. So they were more likely While condemning their actions and mistakes, they will try their best to make up for the negative impact of the riot.
Anyway, I''m finished.
Just a few hours ago, bujo felt that he could force the city hall and the capitalists to bow their heads. In fact, this was just a small matter. As long as Dooling and the capitalists were willing to take the initiative to take out a sum of money to compensate all the losses of the injured worker and give the workers'' Union and him some meaningless prestige, he could not organize such a general strike and a general strike Parade! Just lower your head. Is it so difficult?
He looked back at Otis city and finally decided to leave here. He would not be buried for his own responsibility. He still had great ideals and prospects, and there was no need to tangle in this place. The only thing to be thankful for was that his bank account was anonymous, thanks to the policy of the Imperial central bank. Maybe it would be more suitable in the Federation Fit his position.
The "catastrophe" finally passed. The next morning, almost all newspapers reported that the riots in Otis were suppressed. More than 1000 people were arrested, more than 700 people were killed at the scene, and many people disappeared after they dispersed. What is even more ironic is that there were casualties in the army. A total of more than 30 people were injured. One of them was seriously injured and had been sent to the best private hospital in imperial capital for treatment.
This news seemed to attract a lot of firepower for the workers'' Union, or the public relations of the workers'' Union headquarters all night played a certain role. A large number of newspapers reported the riots at large and began to question the imperial army. In the face of an unarmed mob, how did these more than 30 people get hurt, and how did the seriously wounded soldier who had been under custody get seriously injured. Perhaps this is the reason why the Federation almost reached the imperial capital during the civil war.
Then the workers'' Union headquarters issued a solemn statement, dismissed buqiao from his post, and urged buqiao to turn himself in as soon as possible in exchange for the judge''s discretionary reduction. At the same time, the workers'' Union is willing to compensate for the losses caused by this matter. In the statement, they didn''t know whether it was intentional or unintentional. They didn''t seem to explain that they were willing to bear the responsibility for the riot. Instead, they put the responsibility on some "vicious" and "a small group of workers with ulterior motives".
It seems that this matter has entered the aftershock stage, but the aftershock is much larger than people think.
It can even be said to be a tsunami!
