Rebirth: 1977

Ye Jianfeng looked at Ye Tianshui with admiration and glared at Hua Guoxing:

"Look, Xiaoshui sees things more clearly than you do. You have been in the army all your life and don't know much about the local situation.

Do you know how many major cases the police, courts, and procuratorates have accumulated over the years?

Over the past decade or so, the voice and law enforcement powers of the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs have been greatly weakened, allowing those idle young people to take advantage of the situation.

They are full of energy and like to stir up trouble. Do you know how many murders they have caused?

The key is that they are forming cliques and becoming more and more arrogant. Aren’t ordinary people the ones who suffer the most? If we don’t take severe measures to punish them, the country will be in chaos.

Would you like to see that situation?

At present, the power of the public security is declining. It will take time and appropriate conditions for their duties and powers to be restored.

This is... a problem left over from before, and we can only correct it step by step."

Ye Tianshui looked at the old man with admiration. He knew about the series of reforms and changes that took place later.

Ye Jianfeng, however, made his predictions and judgments entirely based on his political acumen.

Once local militia forces are abolished and the power of the enterprise's security department and armed forces department is reduced, the responsibilities and powers of the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs can be gradually restored. Finally, they can become law enforcement agencies that accept local leadership but have their own independent law enforcement powers.

"Dad's analysis is correct. Perhaps this severe crackdown is an opportunity for the public security, procuratorial and judicial powers to return to their proper places."

Ye Tianshui interjected.

The fact is that since the crackdown began, the power mechanisms of the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs have been gradually established and improved.

“Xiao Shui, Zi Lan’s condition has stabilized, you can’t keep circling around her.

Zilan's parents and I are taking care of the family. You are still young and it's time for you to do your own things.

The world is in turmoil outside, and there is no telling when this situation will end. You must participate if you should, and this is also an opportunity for you to exercise yourself.”

Ye Jianfeng turned his gun towards Ye Tianshui.

"Got it. Next time I have a business trip, I won't refuse it."

Ye Tianshui agreed sincerely.

"Brother, I have a question in my mind. Are those children of the people mentioned above real?... The incident in Tianjin is too horrifying. So many descendants of soldiers are involved. Alas, the country was built by the previous generation with their lives and blood, how come those young people don't know how to cherish it at all? And they even ruined it like that?!"

"Guoxing, put all these thoughts back into your head. There is no question of whether they are true or false.

Those young people who wasted their parents' hard work deserve to be severely punished!"

Ye Jianfeng stopped Hua Guoxing from speaking flatly.

Ye Tianshui finally understood that the two fathers really didn't agree with each other today. He looked at Hua Guoxing and said:

"Dad, you'll be away from home for a few months this time. Mom probably has a lot to say to you, so you should go back first."

Hua Guoxing nodded awkwardly and stood up:

"Brother, I'm going back now. Please take care of yourself. I didn't mean what I said. Please don't take it personally. You should know that anger is harmful to your health."

Ye Tianshui couldn't help but laugh in his heart. He didn't expect that his father-in-law really had the ability to make people angry to death.

"Dad, I'll take you there."

If we stay any longer, the old man might really get angry.

"Aren't you going back? Let's go together."

Hua Guoxing asked in surprise.

"I'll give Dad a massage and then go back. You go ahead."

Ye Tianshui stayed to give Ye Jianfeng a massage. He was angry with his brother-in-law today, and as his son and son-in-law, he had to stay and comfort the old man.

Ye Jianfeng closed his eyes and enjoyed Ye Tianshui's massage. The father and son tacitly did not speak.

When Ye Tianshui felt his men's bodies go limp, he sighed inwardly.

In fact, the old man also has his own ideas in his mind, but being in his position, he has to be more careful in what he says and does.

You wouldn't complain along with Hua Guoxing, right?

"Xiao Shui, be careful about your words and actions when you are outside, and don't talk nonsense about national affairs.

Your current department may involve some high-level secrets, so you must keep the organizational discipline in mind. "

Ye Jianfeng's low voice reminded Ye Tianshui.

"Don't worry, Dad. I won't get involved in any comments. In fact, my dad only said a few words to you. He is very cautious outside."

When Ye Tianshui made the promise himself, he also spoke well of his father-in-law.

The old man has enough to worry about, there's no need for him to worry about his family as well.

"I know, just giving him some warnings."

It was only after Li Haomin was able to get out of bed and walk that he borrowed the phone in the hospital director's office and called Ye Tianshui.

He still needs to rest for a while because his ribs were broken by bullets and it is a hard injury. As the saying goes, 'it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone'. This is a saying left by our ancestors.

But for Li Haomin's young body, it is not a big deal to keep his bones healthy.

The five consecutive bullets were fired at too close a distance. Even though he added a piece of tinplate on the outside of his bulletproof vest, the vibration was so strong that it hurt his heart and lungs.

"Mr. Ye, thank you!"

When he heard Ye Tianshui's voice in the microphone, Li Haomin had a thousand words in his heart, but the only thing he could say was thank you.

In the operation of killing the brothers Wang Wei and Wang Fei, Li Haomin was awarded the title of first-class "hero model" and was awarded first-class merit.

Several other people whose names Ye Tianshui reported to Su Jianxin, Shi Tiezhu, Li Jun and Qian Feng, were awarded the title of "Second-Class Hero Model" and were awarded second-class merit.

There were also several other people and people shoved in by the local government, a total of fifteen people, who were awarded the title of "Third-Class Model Hero" and were awarded third-class merit.

The prize money ranges from 500 to 200 yuan.

Li Haomin has been feeling uneasy ever since he learned that he had made a contribution and was awarded the prize despite being injured.

I always feel like this credit was stolen, and I feel very uneasy.

However, Ye Tianshui's previous warning and Shi Tiezhu's message to him after he woke up made him accept the grand prize silently.

"Haomin? Can you get up now? I'm sorry I didn't come to visit you when I knew you were injured."

Ye Tianshui was also very happy when he received Li Haomin's call.

Although several people in Pingcheng called him one after another, he was well aware of Li Haomin's injury situation.

But hearing his voice in person is still a different feeling.

"Sir, I should be the one to apologize. Without your advice, I would not have accomplished this feat.

Without your repeated warnings, I would not be the only one who would be hurt, and if I had made even the slightest mistake in my actions, I would not be standing here talking to you on the phone."

Li Haomin was very emotional: "I'm sorry, you repeatedly told me not to mention your name, I... dare not go against your wishes, I'm sorry, I can only take credit for this."

Ye Tianshui's tone became serious:

"Haomin, you also said that if there was a 'slightest mistake' in the operation, more people would be injured.

What does that mean? You are willing to trust me, and you have uncompromising execution.

You deserve the credit. Don't say words like "sorry" or "apology" again in the future, okay?

When I heard that you were seriously injured, I regretted giving you the news.

Fortunately, because of your trust in me, your caution and sharpness, you thought of contacting several other brothers to act together.

This success is all due to the mutual trust and tacit cooperation among you.

If just one link is off by a tiny bit, not to mention success, the consequences will be disastrous.

You paid for this achievement with your life!"
