South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

inside the house.

"Officer Yuan, what do you mean?" Director Sun said when he saw the things Yuan Mu brought on the table.

"Oh, it's like this, Director Sun. This time, I'm looking for you because I have something I want to ask for your help." Yuan Mu said with a smile.

"Officer Yuan, if you have something to say, just say it. You have helped me twice. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would be like now. You are simply slapping me in the face by doing this. Take the things and I will continue to help you!" Director Sun said as he picked up the things and placed them at the door.

"This is not a good idea. This matter is not that simple for you." Yuan Mu said with difficulty.

"Don't worry about it, as long as you don't let me do anything illegal!" Director Sun said with a wave of his hand.

"How is this possible? I'm a police officer. How can I let you do something illegal?"

"That's it, then. Just tell me what you want, and I'll do it for you if I can!"

Yuan Mu nodded, and then told him about Wang Xin's situation and what he wanted to do.

Unexpectedly, Director Sun became furious after hearing this.

"This is outrageous! Such a person is not worthy of being a teacher. He makes rash judgments before he has figured out the facts. This is simply an insult to the reputation of a people's teacher!"

"Officer Yuan, don't worry. Leave this matter to me. Give me all your evidence and the account of what happened written by Comrade Wang Xin. I will have this article published in the newspaper within three days!"

Yuan Mu was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Okay, I feel relieved with your words. Thank you."

"You are too polite. As I said before, you have helped me before. Even if this matter does not save your face, as long as I know about it, I will definitely fight against this kind of atmosphere to the end."

"The people's police are there for the people. We cannot let the police suffer this kind of injustice for no reason. Just hold it up!"

In fact, Director Sun didn’t have a great impression of the police profession before, but ever since Yuan Mu helped him twice, his favorable impression of the police almost reached its peak. So, although his words today were somewhat exaggerated, most of them were also from his heart.

After resolving the matter, Yuan Mu declined Director Sun's invitation to dinner and immediately left Director Sun's house. Director Sun did not accept the things he bought.

In fact, Yuan Mu had already guessed that the other party would not accept his things, but there is a saying that goes, I can not accept it, but you can not not give it.

Favors are favors, relationships are relationships. If you always use favors, they will eventually run out. You have to make these favors last.

Three days later, a report appeared in the newspaper, on the front page, and spread throughout the streets and alleys. The content of this report was quite sharp, and every word was directed at the university teacher.

Although the report did not mention any names, the name of the University of Science and Technology was included, and it was written that it was a teacher from the University of Science and Technology. Yes, this teacher was a teacher from Ningyang University of Science and Technology, named Zhou Zheng.

Soon, people from all walks of life in Ningyang saw the newspaper, including the leaders of Ningyang University of Technology.

At this time, in a conference room of Ningyang University of Technology, school leaders gathered together, and everyone had a newspaper in their hands.

Sitting at the top seat is a man in his fifties with half gray hair and glasses. He is the president of the Polytechnic University.

"Have you all read the newspaper?"

"We've seen it." Everyone below nodded.

"Anything you want to say?" The principal looked around at everyone.

"Principal, I think this matter needs to be discussed. We can't just believe one side's words." A middle-aged man in his forties said.

"What are you still negotiating about? The evidence is thrown in your face! Witness testimony! The prisoner's testimony! And the police officer's confession! What else do you want?"

"Vice Principal Wang, I remember that you handled this matter, right? You also asked the police to apologize to you? If I hadn't come back a few days earlier, would I still not know about this?" The principal slammed the table and shouted.

"What kind of place are we? We are a place to train talents for the motherland! You are making rash judgments on something without understanding it clearly. Have you read so many books that you can't even remember them?"

The principal was very angry at this time. This matter was handled without his knowledge, and Zhou Zheng published the article himself without the school's approval.

The content is all subjective judgment, without any objective judgment. If a report had not come out of nowhere, he would still not know what the situation was.

He was studying at the Provincial Department of Education and was doing well, but he was directly called in for a talk by his leader and asked to go back quickly to deal with the matter.

Moreover, this matter is too unfavorable to them now. After a few days of fermentation, the matter has become more and more serious, and many people are discussing it.

The Wang Xin incident had already attracted a lot of attention, especially in that era when the illiteracy rate was quite high. The people who cared about this matter were all intellectuals and leaders, which was even more terrible.

Previously, I thought that there were indeed some problems in Wang Xin’s handling of the case and that the facts were not clear. But this time, the matter is clear and the evidence is conclusive, and the pressure suddenly came to the University of Science and Technology.

This matter could be a big deal or a small one. If it gets out of hand, it's unclear whether he can keep his title as the principal.

"Principal, how do you think this matter should be handled?" At this time, another vice principal nearby asked carefully.

"Alas." The principal sighed.

"The teacher involved will be suspended immediately for reflection and ordered to write a profound apology letter within one day and publish it in the newspaper. Our school will also make a self-reflection and publish it in the newspaper. The school's self-reflection will be written by Vice Principal Wang himself!"

"As for whether we can pass this test, it depends on how the superior leaders arrange it."

“Principal, isn’t this a bit too much? Our school is a key school. Isn’t this a bit…” Vice Principal Wang wanted to refute but was interrupted by the principal.

"What? Are you going to explain to the Provincial Department of Education in person? Or are you going to wait for someone from the Ministry of Education to come? If this matter continues to ferment, will there be students who will apply to our school next year?"

"Who will take responsibility for this? Will you take it? There is no need to discuss this matter any further. Just do as I say. The meeting is adjourned!" With that, the principal waved his sleeves and left.

Two days later, with the apology letter from Zhou Zheng, a teacher at the University of Science and Technology, and the school's review published in the newspaper, public opinion on the matter gradually subsided.

The gunman in this incident, Director Sun, was also praised by his superiors. After all, this incident brought considerable profits to their newspaper.

As for the mastermind behind this incident, no one knows except Director Sun that it is our protagonist, Yuan Mu.
