Chapter 829 Arriving at Jinjia Village and meeting with the village chief Jin Zhi
Under the leadership of Zhang Rong, He Yuzhu and his party arrived at Jinjia Village smoothly.
This village, which has a permanent population of 300 households, had all its doors closed in broad daylight. The entire village was silent, which looked very strange.
There was not even a hint of fireworks. He Yuzhu couldn't help but frown when he saw this scene.
"Director Zhang, what's going on in Jinjia Village? Why aren't they active in broad daylight?"
In response to He Yuzhu's question, Zhang Rong immediately explained:
"Director He, the previous incident at the Bishuitan Lake has caused panic among the people. Now the villagers of Jinjia Village dare not go out, for fear that they will disappear for no reason."
He Yuzhu was shocked when he heard the news.
"Director Zhang, is it really that exaggerated? How far is the Bishuitan Lake from Jinjia Village?"
Zhang Rong: "It's about 4 kilometers away. Just walk down along the Jinxi River at the entrance of the village and turn around five hills before you can see it. It's near the mountain road."
When He Yuzhu heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
"Director Zhang, that's not right. Why didn't I see this clear water pond when I came here just now?"
Facing He Yuzhu's doubts, Zhang Rong explained again.
"Director He, I'm worried about your safety. We came in from another road along the mountain, which is relatively safer, so we didn't see the clear water pond.
At present, that road has been completely blocked by our county bureau. We have set up roadblocks in the village 10 kilometers downstream, allowing people to leave but not enter.
However, recently there have been cases of patrol officers going missing, which has resulted in no one wanting to take on this task, and now only the roadblocks are left, with no one guarding them.”
After hearing Zhang Rong's description, He Yuzhu did not think it was inappropriate. After all, we only have one life, and facing those unknown threats, it is understandable that they do this. If it were him, he would definitely not be willing to take the risk no matter what.
This person's fear of the unknown is the most frightening thing.
.................................
In order to learn more, He Yuzhu followed Zhang Rong to the residence of the village chief of Jinjia Village.
Zhang Rong went forward and knocked on the door.
“Knock…knock…”
An old man's voice came from inside the door.
"Who?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Rong immediately shouted, "Village Chief Jin, it's me, Zhang Rong from the County Bureau. Someone from above is here today to help you deal with the matter at the Bishuitan Lake."
When the old man inside heard that it was from the County Public Security Bureau, he immediately opened the door and saw a gray-haired, elderly man standing at the door.
"Everyone, please follow me in."
After everyone was seated, the old man introduced himself.
"Dear leaders, I am the current head of Jinjia Village. My name is Jin Zhi. I just heard that you are here to help us solve the strange incident at Bishuitan?"
In response to Jin Zhi's question, He Yuzhu was the first to respond.
"That's right, Village Chief Jin, we are here to help you solve your problem. Can you tell us some details about this clear water pond?"
After hearing what He Yuzhu said, Jin Zhi immediately told him everything he knew.
"Dear leaders, this strange incident started at the end of June. Originally, our Jinjia Village was very harmonious and peaceful, and the Bishuitan Lake was also a good place for our villagers to swim and fish.
But at the end of June, there was a sudden heavy rain, which triggered a mountain torrent. From that day on, the entire Bishuitan became uneasy.
At first, some villagers reported that they often felt as if something was watching them in the dark when they were fishing and swimming.
Of course, this is not just the description of one person, but it is what the villagers who recently went to Bishuitan and returned safely said.
Since the beginning of July, when the children in our village disappeared, this clear water pond has been like an abyss, constantly harming the villagers in our village............."
After hearing Jin Zhi's description, He Yuzhu roughly had an idea of the direction. If he guessed correctly, with the mountain torrents and heavy rain, it was likely that either a wandering dragon or some strange beast had been awakened and was now living in the clear water pond.
When he thought of this, he immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Village Chief Jin, it looks like there are guests at your Bishuitan.
However, if that is the case, why don’t you, Jinjia Village, choose to relocate temporarily? "
Faced with He Yuzhu's questioning, Jin Zhi looked embarrassed, as if he had something to hide.
He Yuzhu saw this and raised his mouth tentatively.
"Village Chief Jin, I was entrusted by Mr. Jin to come here."
When Jin Zhi heard the two words "Jin Lao", his pupils shrank instantly. He grabbed He Yuzhu's sleeve and
"Leader, please come with me to my room. I have something to discuss with you in private."
When He Yuzhu heard this, he immediately gave instructions to Zhang Rong and others.
"Director Zhang, Xiao Liu, Xiao Wang, and the rest of you, please step out first. I want to talk to Village Chief Jin alone."
He Yuzhu's subordinates cooperated very well and left. As for Zhang Rong, who originally didn't want to leave, he was also pulled away by the security bureau staff.
"Why are you guys pulling me? As the director of the county public security bureau, why can't I sit in on the trial?"
The leader Liu Ming just laughed.
"Director Zhang, are you kidding me? You are just a small section-level cadre, and you want to sit in on the discussion. Who among us here has a lower position than you? To tell you the truth, the one in there is Director He from our General Administration!"
Before Liu Ming could finish his words, Song Zhong interrupted him.
"Okay, Xiao Liu, just keep some of the things you say brief and don't go into so much detail."
After hearing their description, Zhang Rong roughly guessed the identity of the person inside.
His surname is He, and he is from the Security Bureau, the superior of these cadres. Especially judging by their respectful attitude towards that man, he is probably either the top or second-in-command of the department. This makes him very scared.
Fortunately, I didn't act unreasonably in there at that time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
He Yuzhu and Jin Zhi were having a private conversation in the living room of the village chief's house.
"Leader, who is Mr. Jin you just mentioned?"
"Jin Jie, he is my friend. He entrusted me to handle the affairs of your Jinjia Village."
When Jin Zhi heard this, he was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes.
“It turned out that the old patriarch sent someone here. Our Jinjia Village is saved.
By the way, I haven't asked you, Boss, what's your name? "
In response to Jin Zhi's question, He Yuzhu replied calmly,
"My name is He Yuzhu, and I'm the current director of the General Security Bureau. I'm considered one of our own. Village Chief Jin, you can tell me anything you want to say. Don't worry, I won't reveal a single word to anyone."
Despite what He Yuzhu said, Jin Zhi still trusted him very much.
