Tu Thong drank two cups of tea, calmed himself down, and then headed downstairs.
"What happened?" he asked.
The crowd was already emotionally agitated, and seeing him come down was even more shocking.
"Repair the private affairs officer, return our lives!"
"Yesterday was the day you asked for the card, my son died, he was only twenty years old."
"And my wife, poor thing she is three months pregnant."
"My grandfather is too."
...
In a moment, everyone angrily surrounded Tu Thong, spitting and pointing at him non-stop.
Tu Thong waited until they were almost done cursing, then asked, "How did they all die?"
Almost everyone said in unison, "The card fell and he died."
Tu Thong shook his head, "I don't believe it."
When he was installing the equipment, he was watching from the side. He could confirm that the equipment was very sturdy. Unless there was a super strong wind, it would not be possible for it to fall.
He walked towards the stretcher closest to him and lifted up a white cloth. This was a young woman, her eyes were closed, her expression peaceful, as if she had just fallen asleep. However, Xu Tong did not see her breathing, nor did he touch her pulse.
"She didn't die without being impaled. There were absolutely no external injuries, she must have died from suffocation while sleeping." Tu Thong was a little angry, "How could you guys act so recklessly?"
He again uncovered the second and third stretchers that were covered with white cloth, and saw a young boy and an old man. Both of their deaths were similar to that of the woman. This made him even more angry. Without looking at the others, he could already confirm that these people had come to form a group to blackmail him.
"Do you know what the consequences of malicious slander are?" he asked.
Everyone's face changed immediately.
"Who told you to come?" Tu Thong raised his voice. He admitted that he had always been honest in his duties and steadfast in his work, why did these people want to harm him?
This time it was the turn of the crowd to be speechless. They all lowered their heads, their expressions both hesitant and frightened.
"No words, right? Okay, let's go straight to the private law."
Finally, the oldest person hesitantly opened his mouth, "Mr. Tu, is it really not you?"
Tu Thong was angered by his laughter, "Old man, you mean I killed those people? First, let's not say that I have no grudge against them. Just say how they died, how do you think I should do it?"
"That is, the dead people here are all people who equipped you with new tricks last night." Another person weakly spoke. "One or two can still be said to be coincidences, but there are four or five of them here. You say that there is no necessary connection between these, who would believe it."
"How did they die?" Tu Thong's expression became solemn, this matter was truly too strange.
"My grandfather was about to show off his bird, but as soon as he touched the bird cage, he fell to the ground."
"My son couldn't get out of bed in the morning, and then we found him dead."
"My wife suddenly collapsed while cooking."
...
After listening to what they said, Tu Thong felt even more strange. These people actually didn't show any signs before they died.
Seeing Tu Thong's innocent expression, everyone believed he did not kill anyone, but felt it was even more strange, and discussed heatedly.
"It's not that I don't like to talk, everyone feels that this card looks like a spirit card, unlucky and unlucky."
"Perhaps this place carries a curse. Otherwise why would it be impossible to understand the dead."
"Yes, I don't know what those old men think."
Tu Thong also thought so, but he couldn't say so. After all, he was a political officer, representing the government's stance. And the government would not accept the power of a crazy person.
"Could it be that the document is poisonous?" Throwing away those unscientific guesses, he felt that this was the only possibility left.
"You guys go live in another place first, no need to come near the sign. I'll go ask for an inspection." That's the only way to do it, he thought.

"Measurement test? Are you crazy? How can there be a problem with the materials we provide?" After hearing what Tu Thong said, the director of the repair department immediately threw the cup down.
Tu Thong: "It could also be paint or glue. In short, it is really strange, several people died for no reason. They are all business equipment."
Bureau Chief Tu Sui: "I think you have a problem with your brain? What do you mean by unreasonable? It can only be said that your reason is not very clear."
Tu Thong sighed: "So to clarify the reason, you should still let me take it for testing and measurement, it can also be considered as giving the people justice."
"Just common people. We can't keep them." The director of the repair department firmly disagreed.
Tu Thong had no choice but to continue to step back and say, "Then can we change someone to supervise, I don't think I'll do this job again."
Perhaps his rescued sister used up all his good luck, and now he wants to start a new life. If it were someone else, it wouldn't have turned out like this.
The director of the bureau was furious, "You, a small political affairs officer, actually dare to continuously make requests to your superiors? I warn you, if you don't change your identity within 3 days, I will report you and revoke your position. You worked so hard to pass the political affairs officer exam."
Tu Thong helplessly sighed, "Okay."
*
So he had to continue going into the shopping district.
He first reassured the local people, telling them that this was just a coincidence, although this coincidence was a bit too strange. He also assured them that there were no problems with these signs.
After that, he did some psychological construction, telling himself that the director would not lie to anyone, the documents were really not a problem. There were no strange things in this world, everything was just right.
Finally, he made up his mind and said, "Then continue equipping."
The crowd stood there dumbly, not wanting to move at all.
Tu Thong felt extremely tired and advised, "If you don't complete the equipment within the time limit, you all know the consequences."
If the private business establishment does not change, the merchant group will not be able to continue trading. Being bullied by the old masters, how can he stop him alone?
Finally, the crowd loosened up, and the group of workers quietly made way for each other.
Tu Thong rubbed his cold sweaty forehead, praying in his heart that nothing would happen again.
*
The first to equip the merchant was a middle-aged couple. Tu Thong watched the workers remove the old signs and replace them with new ones, then decorated them with strict techniques.
"Even in broad daylight, this move looks terrifying." The husband said.
The wife nodded, "It's not like that, the rows are neat and tidy, it looks like they're gathered in a shrine."
The husband looked back at Tu Thong, "Mr. Tu, how long do you want this to last? Can we change it? We sell flowers and other things for couples. If customers see this kind of sign, who would dare to come in?"
Tu Thong smiled bitterly, "I also said it was not good."
The husband sighed deeply, followed behind and took a few steps back, raised his head and frowned, "From a distance, it looks even more gloomy——"
He had not finished speaking when he suddenly fell to the ground.
The wife screamed and immediately ran to his side, "What happened to you?"
"Wake up!"
"No need!"
"You can't just leave like that!"
"How could you bear to abandon me and the child!"
Hearing his wife's miserable call, Tu Thong was stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do.
*
Very quickly, the security department people arrived, along with them was the chief of the repair department.
"Xu Tong, didn't I tell you? If something happened here, you should temporarily halt your equipment and investigate thoroughly first." Without waiting for Xu Tong to explain the situation, the director of the repair department pointed at his nose and angrily scolded, "It's fine now, but it's another life."
"You, a politician, do you really put the lives of the people in your heart?!"
Tu Tong looked at him in surprise, "It's obvious that you forced me. I've already suggested to you that we don't need to continue using these weird signs, but you said we don't need to keep these people around. I said that I should take the signs for testing, but you said that there was absolutely no problem with the signs. I even said that I wanted to refuse this job, but you threatened me with dismissal."
The Director of the Bureau of Corrections did not expect that Xu Tong would dare to publicly expose him. His face was filled with anger, "Nonsense. I am the Director of the Bureau of Corrections, how could I say such things."
"Take him away, take him back for interrogation." He waved his hand fiercely, and several security officers immediately interrogated Tu Thong and brought him onto a security bus.
"Please rest assured, I will definitely give you justice." After the director of the repair department finished speaking, he also followed and got into the car, leaving behind only the shop owners who were either extremely sad or completely confused.
*
The security department has a mysterious and luxurious office inside.
"What was the result?" a young man asked.
The Chief of Police had a flattering smile on his face, "Everyone is convinced, but that guy refuses to admit his guilt. The people from the Public Security Bureau knocked him unconscious and made him have a handprint. The Justice Department has also greeted him, and will carry out the execution at noon tomorrow."
He spoke exceptionally carefully, afraid that if he was not careful, he would anger this God of Death in front of him. This young man looked elegant and handsome, but in reality, he was the son-in-law of the Divine Capital Group.
A few days ago, the Shen Xi Financial Group's officials, Dong Yu De, were exposed by someone for seducing beautiful men and women to engage in sexual misconduct with the old masters. At that time, the one who was harmed the most was Xu Tong's younger sister. Although Xu Tong's younger sister was eventually rescued, the director of the repair department knew that the Shen Xi Financial Group would not spare anyone who opposed them.
Deserved! He cursed in his heart, who asked you, a small political officer, to oppose the financial group. You are a dignified director, seeing the financial group's son-in-law as a worthy grandson. Whatever the financial group does, it does.
He rolled his eyes and asked carefully, "Mr. Wu, do you really want to continue with that plan? Several people have already died."
Although the lives of those lower-level civilians were not enough, but there were so many deaths that he feared it would be difficult for him to keep his position as director.
The young man called Mr. Wu smiled, "Rest assured, nothing will happen next. You guys change your personal supervisor, then simultaneously equip ten or more tokens. That way, no one will die."
The director of the repair department smiled gratefully, "Thank you Mr. Ngo for pointing out the confusion."
Mr. Ngo waved his hand, signaling him to go down.
The chief of the department bowed and retreated.
At this moment, Mr. Wu's communicator rang. He quickly picked it up. An angry female voice came, "Wu Fa, what's wrong with you? You want to kill Brother Xu Zhi, aren't you worried that she will kill you?"
It turns out that this Mr. Wu is not someone else, but the previous 03 Wu Xiong's other son, who is also the one who appeared in the fake Wu Tian video earlier. When the Wu Xiong family was liquidated, he had run away because he had married a woman from the Shen Xi financial group.
"Baby, don't be angry, listen to me." Facing his wife, Wu Fa's tone was extremely gentle, "Trust me, I have thought it through carefully."
Wu Fa told his wife that Xu Hui and his parents were both in the west, and Xu Zhi was currently the chief of the west and the highest security official, so he had no choice but to take them. But Xu Tong was different, he was still in the south, Xu Zhi was not familiar with the south except for the Drunken Master group. Moreover, Xu Tong was to be executed tomorrow, and was currently squatting in prison. He did not believe that Xu Tong could still ask Xu Zhi for help through his old classmate Liu Ke.
"Therefore, Tu Tri absolutely has no ability to save his brother. She killed my father, I also want to let her taste this kind of pain." Ngo Phap said fiercely.
The voice opposite calmed down a bit, but still carried a deep worry, "But what about later? Kill her brother, what if she finishes the matter and finds out that it was you? Wu Fa, I remember that the family must have warned you more than once. Indeed, our financial group is different from the low-level commoners, they are just like leeks to us. But we cannot be caught by others. You can kill a lot of people, but don't let them discover that it was you."
Wu Fa smiled and said, "Baby, you don't need to worry about this. I previously manipulated a construction business's renovation bureau chief to get money, and made him carry out this brand-changing project. If the matter is exposed, they will be the ones to take the blame."
The person opposite seemed to finally let out a sigh of relief, "The plan is going well."
"Smoothly. There will be a new supervisor of the political affairs department to complete 'it' soon. By then, hehe."
Speaking of this, both of them smiled at the same time.
If they succeed, Wu Fa will become the Drunken Master and will also be promoted to a high position. His wife will also enter the center of the financial group.
After laughing, the other person said again, "Then you should keep a close eye on him. Absolutely do not do anything bad to Xu Zhi. Otherwise, if we fail, we will not have a good ending."
"Okay, okay, don't worry, baby."
Cut off the communication, Ngo Phap's face immediately collapsed.
Compassion! Compassion! Compassion!
Is the Divine Capital Group the PTSD victim of Tu Tri?
Tu Tri heard that she was on vacation, how could she come here to cause trouble? Even if she thought about it, she still couldn't figure out the special nature of this ghostly drug.

Tu Thong opened his eyes wide and found himself locked in a small, narrow room with only one small window.
A moment later, he realized that he was locked in a prison.
"You guys are breaking the law! I did not commit any crime, nor did I plead guilty!" He shouted loudly.
But no matter how he shouted, no one paid any attention to him. It was quiet outside. Only the deep moonlight penetrated through the bars, coldly shining on him.
Tu Thong collapsed and squatted down, biting his lips to prevent himself from crying. He could have reunited with his parents and younger sister immediately, so why did he end up in jail in the blink of an eye? Moreover, based on the current illegal proceedings, he was very likely to be executed.
He closed his eyes and began to recall who he had offended, that was why the other party wanted to take revenge on him by all means, even buying off the director of the private sector.
Affirmation is a very powerful person.
He opened his eyes wide, the Divine Capital Group.
Just them.
He smiled bitterly as he lay on the prison bed, groaning. If he were a miracle, he would definitely deal with himself quickly, to avoid having many nightmares at night. Perhaps he would die tomorrow. In other words, this time there would be no one to escape for him, and he would have no contact with the outside world.
There will be no more that short hair, at first glance makes people familiar but nostalgic woman like a god descended, save him.
There are many strange things in this world, but it is said that they are all caused by mutations in the radiation within the radioactive area. There are also many crimes and tragedies in this world, but they are all swept away in the dark by the high and mighty financial corporations and the big shots.
This world alone has no gods, although many people say they have met gods.
But according to the government, god does not exist, god is baseless talk.
Tu Thong also believes this way of speaking. After all, just look at the financial group and you will know where there is a place with high and mighty power and at the same time benevolent and just existence.
But at this moment, Tu Thong was extremely hopeful that God existed.
'He' is powerful, just, and can save the desperate in dire situations.
The world brings law and order, good people get good rewards, bad people get bad rewards.
"Haha, lost in thought, can't see tomorrow's young man. The Sect Master heard your response, 'he' decided to respond to you."
Suddenly, a loud voice suddenly rang out in the cell.
Following, Tu Thong saw a strange creature, 'it' had two very long ears, its appearance looked like a rabbit. But it was much bigger than a rabbit, moreover 'it's' ear edges seemed to be wrapped around winding antenna wires.
What's hard to convince is that 'it' is actually wearing a grass skirt!
