Secretary Fu Changzheng came in and reported that Liu Qiang, the director of education, was here. Cheng Yandong got up and said, "I should go too, I will continue to investigate, I hope to find some more clues!" ”

Cheng Yandong walked out of the office and happened to meet Liu Qiang, and nodded to Liu Qiang with a smile0

Liu Qiang also smiled, and he could see that his heart was good now.

Zhang Yang didn't show any happiness about this guy's visit, frowned and said, "Something to do with me?" ”

Liu Qiang nodded and said with a smile: "I just received the news that a total of cheating incidents were discovered in Pinghai Province today, and the number of people involved has reached 41. ”

Zhang Yang looked at Liu Qiang with strange eyes, under his gaze, Liu Qiang looked a little unnatural, and coughed dryly: "Mayor Zhang knows?" Zhang Yang said: "You seem to be happy? Liu Qiang said: "Everyone has an accident, so that the eyes of the outside world will not only focus on Fengze!" Zhang Yang pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit!" ”

Liu Qiang sat down a little unnaturally, his two hands were clasped together, his unnaturalness was caused by Zhang Yang's gaze, only to feel that Zhang Yang's two gazes were like blades piercing his body, making him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles. Liu Qiang said: "Mayor Zhang, what will you do with Zhao Fucheng this time?" ”

Zhang Yang said: "The normal procedure, the impact is so big, it has violated the laws of the country, it must be in and squatting for a few years, the most pitiful thing is that those students, a rash decision, buried their future." Liu Qiang sighed twice.

Zhang Yang suddenly said: "After the cheating happened, why didn't you notify me immediately?" ”

Liu Qiang was stunned in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "Mayor Zhang, after the accident, I rushed to the scene as soon as possible, because you are on a business trip, so I don't want to disturb you, I thought I could deal with the funny thing, but I didn't expect this matter to be so serious, so I called you." ”

Zhang Yang smiled and didn't speak, but said in his heart: "You *** ten *** want to harm me!" He said softly: "Forget it, things have already happened anyway, and the most important thing now is to solve the problem, according to you, who reported this matter?" Liu Qiang said: "I can't pick this up, maybe Zhao Fucheng has offended someone!" Zhang Yang said: "Do you think this incident is only aimed at Zhao Fucheng?" ”

Liu Qiang sank down, and the blind man could also see that this time the spearhead was directed at Zhang Yang, and directly at the entire Fengze education circle, he said in a low voice: "Mayor Zhang, the impact of this incident in Fengze No. 1 Middle School is very bad, and public opinion from the outside world is focused on this matter, and we should react." Zhang Yang said indifferently: "How do you think we should react?" ”

Liu Qiang lowered his voice and said: "It's not enough to deal with Zhao Fucheng alone, the public will not be satisfied, and it will be difficult for the superior leaders to explain!" Zhang Yang suddenly understood the day of this guy, and he pretended to be confused and said: "You give me a suggestion!" ”

Liu Qiang said: "The incident happened in Fengze No. 1 Middle School, and someone from Fengze No. 1 Middle School must come out and take responsibility!" Zhang Yang said: "Chang Lingfeng asked me to resign!" Liu Hao's heart was relieved. But then Zhang Yang said: "I didn't answer the form!" Liu Qiang's expression turned into stunned again.

Zhang Yang said: "This matter is not only the responsibility of Ling Feng alone, nor is it just the matter of Fortress No. 1 Middle School, but the matter of Fortress the entire education community!" Liu Qiang hurriedly said: "I know that I am responsible, and I will publicly apologize to the whole society......"

Zhang Yang sneered: "What to do, I know!" Your task now is to ensure that the last day of the college entrance examination goes smoothly and does not make any mistakes, as for what kind of responsibility to bear, we will talk about it after the college entrance examination is completed! ”

Liu Qiang shuddered from the bottom of his heart, Zhang Yang's words were equivalent to showing his attitude, he would never let himself go, Zhang Yang emphasized that this cheating incident is a matter of the entire Fengze education community, and has already hinted that his Liu Qiang's responsibility will never be light, the more Liu Qiang thinks about it, the more depressed he becomes, and he doesn't even have the courage to stay, he stood up and said: "Mayor Zhang, I'll go first...... There's still a meeting to be held in the bureau! Zhang Yang said coldly: "Don't send it!" ”

Liu Qiang had just left here, Mayor Sun Dongqiang's secretary Que Liang came over to ask Zhang Yang, after being beaten by Zhang Yang a few times, Zhai Liang was much more well-behaved, knocked on the door first before entering, and politely called Mayor Zhang after walking in, Zhang Yang was still satisfied with his performance a few days ago.

From Zhang Yang's return to Fengze, Sun Dongqiang has not formally talked with Zhang Yang, yesterday's mayor's meeting, Zhang Yang did not participate, Sun Dongqiang's attitude is still very kind, after experiencing several things in a row, he began to understand that he does not need to rush to push Zhang Yang to a hostile position, historical experience tells him that Zhang Yang is not so easy to be defeated, this fraud case that occurred in Fengze No. 1 Middle School, obviously aimed at Zhang Yang, according to Sun Dongqiang's past practice, at this time, he will choose to fall into the well, But since talking to his father-in-law, Sun Dongqiang's mentality has quietly changed, he would rather adopt a strategy of waiting and seeing, and it is really difficult to make a choice until the last moment.

Sun Dongqiang asked about the current progress of the matter, and Zhang Yang briefly reported to him. In fact, Sun Dongqiang understands the situation, but he still enjoys the process of Zhang Yang reporting to him, and his heart said that you are awesome, right? No matter how awesome you are, you have to report to me honestly, and no matter how awesome you are, you are also my subordinate, which is somewhat of a spiritual victory method, but Sun Dongqiang can only find some comfort from it. He concealed it very well and did not show the slightest smugness, otherwise if Zhang Daguan saw it, he would inevitably embarrass him again.

After listening to this, Sun Dongqiang said: "Zhang Yang, this matter must be dealt with more closely to avoid the expansion of the impact of the incident, otherwise it will only become more and more difficult to clean up!" ”

Zhang Yang said: "The influence has expanded, those reporters have already poked this matter out, all the newspapers in the province have reported it, and the TV station also broadcast the news last night!" Speaking of this matter, Zhang Yang couldn't help but be a little annoyed, Chen Shaobin's words obviously didn't play a big role, his old man Chen Pingchao, the propaganda minister of Pinghai, should not have asked about this matter, and the laissez-faire of the news caused the current situation.

Sun Dongqiang sighed and said: "We must deal with it as soon as possible, give the public an explanation, and give the whole society an explanation!" Zhang Yang said: "It's a big deal to give me an explanation!" ”

Sun Dongqiang frowned and said: "I didn't mean that, if there is a problem, let's discuss it together and find the best solution, not to let anyone take responsibility, but to bear the black pot." His words still sound a little class-emotional.

Zhang Yang said: "Mayor Sun, you look at this matter from an outsider's point of view, to be fair, do you think someone is making trouble for Qi in this matter?" ”

One sentence stunned Sun Dongqiang, and after a long time, he nodded and said, "I also feel that this book is a little wrong!" After Zhang Yang left, Sun Dongqiang immediately asked his father-in-law.

Zhao Yanglin expressed satisfaction with his son-in-law's performance in front of him, and he said in a low voice: "The more stormy it is, the more you must grasp yourself and learn to look at problems from the perspective of an outsider." Sun Dongqiang said: "Secretary Shen has not made a statement on this matter until now!" ”

Zhao Yanglin sneered and said: "He is a political veteran, he knows when to speak and when to remain calm!" Dongqiang, Fengze fraud incident is very big, the province knows about it, Secretary Qiao publicly stated at the Standing Committee that he will strictly investigate and deal with it, and will not tolerate it, Governor Song also issued a notice of serious discipline in the examination room, it is difficult to foresee how things will develop in the end, so you must keep a clear head and do not get involved in meaningless struggles. Sun Dongqiang agreed again and again.

The night shrouded the entire campus of Fengze No. 1 Middle School, Chang Lingfeng was still sitting in the principal's office, his resignation was rejected by Zhang Yang, but he knew that no matter what Zhang Yang's wishes were, someone must come out to take responsibility for this matter, Zhang Yang is a person who refuses to admit defeat, the reason why he refused his resignation is also because of this reason, Chang Lingfeng's daylight falls on the wall on July 8, tomorrow will be the last day of the college entrance examination, after successfully completing the college entrance examination, whether Zhang Yang insists on it or not, he will resign as the principal, Only in this way can the pressure on Zhang Yang be relieved.

Chang Lingfeng smelled an enticing fragrance, he raised his head, and then saw Zhang Ruirong standing outside the door, holding a lunch box in his hand, and the expression on his pretty face was full of concern. Chang Lingfeng smiled at her: "Xiao Zhang, come in!" ”

Zhang Ruirong came to him and put the food he called on the desk, and said angrily: "Work is important, and food must be eaten!" You're not in good health, you're hungry, who's going to run the school? ”

Chang Lingfeng smiled indifferently: "I, the principal, am just an agent, and one day, after the college entrance examination, I will hand over my power!" Zhang Ruirong bit her lip and said, "Why do you want to take responsibility?" Cheating is their own thing? Chang Lingfeng said with a smile: "As the head of a school, of course I have to take responsibility!" ”

Zhang Ruirong said angrily: "This whistleblower is so hateful, he can obviously stop this cheating, but (8) he let it go, he has to wait until the cheating becomes a fact to report, he is planning to create an incident." Chang Lingfeng said: "Politics is like this, in order to achieve the goal, unscrupulous means!" ”

Zhang Ruirong said: "If it weren't for helping Zhang Yang, we wouldn't have come to the ghost place of Fengze, what is the principal of Fengze No. 1 Middle School, we don't care at all!" ”

When Chang Lingfeng heard Zhang Ruirong take a bite of us, a burst of warmth arose in his heart, and he could be accompanied by Yiren in times of trouble, this sense of happiness was indescribable.

Zhang Ruirong also realized that he had lost his words, his pretty face turned red unconsciously, and his voice was like a mosquito: "You eat, I'll go first!" He turned around and fled as if leaving Chang Lingfeng's office.

Zhang Ruirong believes that the reason why Chang Lingfeng wants to resign is all because he wants to take responsibility for Zhang Yang, "She felt aggrieved for Chang Lingfeng and felt worthless for Chang Lingfeng, so she found Zhang Yang. When Zhang Ruirong knocked on the door of Zhang Yang's room at the Egret Hotel, Zhang Yang was preparing.

Seeing Zhang Ruirong's angry expression, Zhang Yang picked up the purpose of her coming, and couldn't help laughing: "Something to do with me?" Zhang Ruirong said: "Why are you using Ling Feng as a shield?" ”

Zhang Yang said: "You know the situation and then come to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, he asked me to resign, but I refused, this matter is for me, not for him, why should he be held responsible?" ”

Zhang Zhanrong said: "You still know! You say, what the hell is going to do about this? ”

Zhang Yang smiled: "You came just in time, I want to take action tonight, and I still lack a helper!" ”

"Action?" Zhang Ruirong was a little confused.

Zhang Yang pointed to the black stockings on the table: "I want to find the whistleblower!" ”

Zhang Ruirong was pleasantly surprised: "Do you know who it is? ”

Zhang Yang said: "I can't be sure, but ** is not far from ten!" There are still some tools on hand! Zhang Daguan smiled evilly: "You know better than me, you should have some commonly used espionage tools in your hands, right?" ”

Zhang Ruirong glared at him and said, "You are not a person in the organization anymore, why should you use things in the organization?" Zhang Yang said: "You don't want to help Chang Lingfeng?" "What do I have to help him?" "Why don't you want to help him, why are you looking for me to ask for guilt?" Zhang Ruirong suddenly spoke, and his pretty face turned red. Zhang Yang raised his wrist and looked at the time and said, "It's almost time!" Let's go!

Meng Zonggui is a basketball enthusiast, he played basketball in Fengze Gymnasium that night, it was half past nine in the evening when he left the gymnasium, there was not much distance from the gymnasium to Fengze No. 1 Middle School, he thought while walking, he had left the position of the principal for a while, Shen Qinghua had decided to let him go to the section to appoint, Meng Zonggui had a deep affection for Fengze No. 1 Middle School, he thought that the reason why Fengze No. 1 Middle School has today is all because of the results of his own efforts, and the current Fengze No. 1 Middle School is like a fruitful fruit tree, But just as the harvest was about to be harvested, he was kicked out of the orchard, and it was Zhang Yang who caused all this.

Looking at the lights on the campus of Fengze No. 1 Middle School, the corners of Meng Zonggui's lips flashed with a sneer, this smile contained indescribable resentment, with resentment, Meng Zonggui walked into the faculty dormitory building, just walked into the corridor, he felt that his body was clicked, and then he fell down softly.

A man in black rushed up quietly, hugged Meng Zonggui's body, and the van that had been waiting in front of the building drove over, and the man in black lifted Meng Zonggui like a chicken, pulled him into the van, closed the door, and said in a low voice: "Go!" ”

The man in black lifted the black stockings on his face, revealing a young and handsome face, this raider on Meng Zonggui was none other than Feng Ze's deputy elder Zhang Yang.

It was Zhang Ruirong who was driving, and she couldn't help laughing: "I didn't expect you to be really professional in kidnapping!" Zhang Yang grinned and muttered: "It's better to be a kidnapper than to be a cadre in these years!" Zhang Ruirong smiled more and more happily.

The van drove all the way to an abandoned furniture factory on the outskirts of Fortress, where Mr. Zhang had stumbled upon and was uninhabited, and the owner of the furniture factory had closed down because of poor management, and now there was no one left in the factory.

Zhang Yang put the stockings on again, Zhang Ruirong also followed his example and covered his face with stockings, Zhang Yang raised his hand, snap! The ground was a big-eared melon seed that fell, causing Meng Zonggui to scream miserably, and at the same time poked his finger to unlock his acupoint. As soon as Meng Zonggui regained his freedom, he cried out for his life: "Help...... Help ......"

Zhang Yang snorted coldly: "Even if you scream, no one will help you if you break your throat!" His voice became low and hoarse, which was the effect of using the voice-changing spray that Zhang Ruirong gave him. He grabbed Meng Zonggui's hair and roughly dragged Meng Zonggui out of the car.

Meng Zonggui wailed and wanted to run, but was kicked in the stomach by Zhang Ruirong, and it hurt so much that Meng Zonggui even shed tears.

Zhang Yang dragged Meng Zonggui to the workshop, Zhang Ruidi handcuffed one of his hands, and the other hand was handcuffed to Tie Yuan.

When Meng Zonggui saw the appearance of the two of them, he was so frightened that his soul was not possessed, and his legs kept beating: "Who are you?" Scratch...... What are you doing with me? I...... I don't have any money...... No money......"

Zhang Ruirong pulled out his saber and made a gesture to stab Meng Zonggui, so frightened that Meng Zonggui screamed, just closed his eyes, and the blade stopped two centimeters away from Meng Zonggui.

Zhang Ruirong also found out, and the back of the reversal knife slapped Meng Zonggui's face very much, causing half of Meng Zonggui's face to swell: "Disgusting, waste!" ”

Meng Zonggui's snot and tears flowed out together: "Two big ...... Big...... Elder brother...... You have spared me, how many prophecies do you want, I ...... I'll smash the pot and sell the iron for you to make it up......" Zhang Ruirong said: "Want a plutonium?" How much money do you have? How much is it worth for you to chase a life? Meng Zonggui said: "I didn't ...... I didn't offend you......"

Zhang Ruirong said: "You know what you have done!" Lin Fangbai, that kid offended you? What are you reporting him for? Lin Fangbai was also one of the five substitutes, and Zhang Ruirong said this to show Meng Zonggui's truth.

Meng Zonggui said in a loud voice: "What are you talking about, I don't know, I really don't know!" ”

Zhang Ruirong said to Zhang Yang: "He said he didn't know!" ”

Zhang Yang pulled down the power supply of the chainsaw, the chainsaw disc has rusted because it has not been used for a long time, and it makes a harsh sound when it is running, Zhang Daguan picked up a wooden stick and put it on the chainsaw, the wooden stick instantly became two, Zhang Yang deliberately said: "I can't imagine that this chainsaw can still be used, I don't know how hard your neck is compared to the wooden stick?" ”

Meng Zonggui was so frightened that his forehead was covered with cold sweat, Zhang Yang came to him, grabbed his hair, pressed his body down, looked at the rapidly rotating chainsaw, Meng Zonggui was so frightened that he exclaimed loudly: "I say everything one by one, one by one, I say all one by one, one by one, I say all one by one, one by one" Zhang Yang yelled: "Say! Meng Zonggui burst into tears: "Zhao Fucheng has done it in the past...... I know ......"

Zhang Yang said coldly: "You don't transfer concepts with me, who reported it?" Say! He pressed Meng Zonggui's head down a little more.

Meng Zonggui was so frightened that his soul flew away: "I said...... I say it all...... It's me...... Be...... r......""Why are you doing this? ”

Meng Zonggui said: "I didn't plan to harm anyone, I just can't get used to cheating in the college entrance examination...... I'm an educator and I'm interested in this kind of ...... This kind of unhealthy trend is deeply abhorred...... I ...... "Then why don't you report it before it happens, and wait until the cheating happens."

Zhang Ruirong said: "If you don't say it, we also know that your principal has been dismissed, so you have resentment in your heart, you want to take revenge, and use this matter to put Chang Lingfeng in a dilemma!" Meng Zonggui trembled and said, "Who are you...... You ......"

Zhang Ruirong said coldly: "If people don't know what to do unless you do it, you are planning this matter with all your heart and mind, just to take revenge, you were also the head of a school, and you are a teacher, how can you do such a despicable and shameless thing?" ”

Zhang Yang said: "Don't talk nonsense with him, this kind of scum is superfluous to stay in the world, I cut off his head!" He made a gesture to squeeze Meng Zonggui's head.

Meng Zonggui screamed: "Don't ...... I know wrong...... I hate it so much...... I have no grudges against Chang Lingfeng, I didn't think about harming him at all......" Zhang Ruidi glanced at Zhang Yang with disgust, in the final analysis, Chang Lingfeng was still affected by him

Zhang Yang slapped Meng Zonggui's head very much: "Paralyzed, what's it?" Give you a shame, and don't weigh yourself before doing bad things! ”

Zhang Ruirong took out a pistol and put it on Meng Zongqing's head: "Say, what other bad things do you have to explain!" '，

Meng Zonggui was so frightened that he almost collapsed at this time, and wailed: "I...... I've also received ruthenium...... When Shed built the school building...... Gave me 50,000 yuan...... I...... Guilty ......"

Zhang Yang smiled and shook his head, this guy's boat is too small, he gave Zhang Ruirong a look, Zhang Ruirong took out a syringe and stuck it on Meng Zonggui's neck, Meng Zonggui trembled, "Soon fell asleep."

Opening Meng Zonggui's handcuffs, Zhang Yang and Zhang Ruirong came to the van and said, "Is that needle effective?" Zhang Ruirong nodded and said, "He shouldn't remember what happened tonight." Zhang Yang said: "Go back and find a public phone booth to call the police, and let the public security take him back!" Zhang Ruirong said: "What are you going to do?" Zhang Yang asked rhetorically: "What to do?"

Zhang Ruirong shook the tape in front of him: "If you have evidence, do you want to use it?" Zhang Yang smiled: "This kind of evidence is not visible, but with it, there is capital for negotiation!" "Who are you talking to?" "Of course it's our Shen Shu-Ji!"

On the third day of the college entrance examination, the major media in Pinghai Province were lively, at the beginning it was Fengze, and now the whole Pinghai cheating incident is endless, the quiet game of the two bigwigs has become a self-destructive scandal, the education system is strictly monitored, and the media has also shown an unprecedented degree of freedom, Propaganda Minister Chen Pingchao simply let it go this time, the wrestling between Qiao Zhenliang and Song Huaiming, he is not suitable to participate, and the laissez-faire of the media itself is his attitude, don't you Secretary Qiao want to deal with it strictly and never tolerate it? Now that there are so many fraud incidents in the current college entrance examination in Pinghai Province, I want to see how you deal with it.

Chen Pingchao is full of resentment towards Qiao Zhenliang in his heart, the last time his son Chen Shaobin and Qiao Zhenliang's nephew Qiao Pengfei had a conflict, and finally ended with him bowing his head and compromising, but his son is much tougher than himself, Chen Shaobin resigned, and after this incident, this kid seems to have changed a lot and grown up a lot.

Chen Pingchao's bow to Qiao Zhenliang was a last resort, although he bowed his head, it did not mean that he was convinced of Qiao Zhenliang, Qiao Zhenliang's handling method in the Fengze fraud case this time was still to use his strength to fight cattle across the mountains, to deal with whether Zhang Yang was fake, give Song Huaiming some color to see if it was true, but Song Huaiming was not himself, what others had was courage, Song Huaiming dared to take advantage of Qiao Zhenliang's east wind to give the fire to Xiao.

What Chen Pingchao needs to do is to watch from the sidelines, as the Minister of Propaganda, not restraining the media is supporting, Chen Pingchao is very confident in the ability of media people, even a small spark, under their reporting, it will become a prairie fire.

Shen Qinghua quietly flipped through the newspaper, usually he likes to read the People's Daily first, and then Pingyu Daily, Jiangcheng Daily, and Fengze Daily read step by step, but today his reading order is reversed, the media of Fengze, Jiangcheng, and Pinghai all focused on reporting on Fengze's fraud case, but today in addition to reporting on Fengze, there are also some situations in other cities, and there is also a fraud incident in Jiangcheng, and Fengze, the little brother, is finally not alone. If a person can't find a solution right away when he is in a hurry, he hates that everyone else is as unlucky as him, which is very normal. Shen Qinghua's mood is still very complicated now, on the one hand, he feels that his face is dull because of the Fengze fraud case, and on the other hand, he feels that this is a good opportunity to beat Zhang Yang, you Zhang Yang has made some knots, but this mistake has wiped out all your previous credits, and I want to take back the power handed over to you.

When Shen Qinghua was thinking about how to deal with this matter, Zhang Yang came, it stands to reason that he should have come to explain the situation to Shen Qinghua in person when there was such a big thing in the education system, but it was the third day since he came back, and he remembered to come to the secretary of the municipal party committee to explain.

Shen Qinghua's face was obviously a little unkind, if other cadres of Fengze saw Shen Qinghua's appearance, they would definitely be shocked, but Zhang Daguan was not an ordinary person, and Shen Qinghua's official authority was really not regarded by him as a thing.

Zhang Yang said: "Secretary Shen, I'm here to report to you the college entrance examination fraud incident!" ”

Shen Qinghua frowned and said, "It's really timely!" This sentence smacks of mockery.

Zhang Yang said: "I came back the day before yesterday, you went to Jiangcheng for a meeting, so I didn't have a chance to report to you, and yesterday I was busy investigating the cause and effect of this matter, so I didn't come!" ”

Shen Qinghua said: "Is it necessary to investigate?" Isn't it all obvious? Xiao Zhang! You have a long enough vacation, I don't want to talk to you about any organizational discipline, but you must at least do your job well, as the leader in charge of culture, education and health, at this juncture of the college entrance examination, you asked for leave to go to the capital, a go is so many days, you may really have something urgent to do, but before leaving, how to do a good job in the preparation for the college entrance examination, now well, Fengze education has become a big joke in Pinghai, in the past, our Fengze education level has always been in the forefront of Jiangcheng, Fengze No. 1 Middle School is a provincial key middle school, It is the pride of our Fortress, representing the image of our Fortress, the college entrance examination fraud, the five students taking the exam, and the educational image of us operating so many books, was completely ruined by this one thing! ”

Zhang Yang said: "Secretary Shen, I'm not here to shirk responsibility, but this matter is not as simple as you see!" ”

"It's not as simple as I see? So how complicated is that? Being complacent when you have some achievements, and being busy dissociating yourself and shirking responsibility when something goes wrong, this is not what I want to see! ”

Zhang Yang smiled indifferently: "Secretary Shen, don't be busy buttoning my hat on my head first!" I won't shirk the responsibility, but it's obvious that someone is making trouble! ”

Shen Qinghua said: "Or shirk responsibility, such a serious thing happened, until now you don't have a clear attitude, all you think of are other people's mistakes, external reasons, the style of our ** members should not be like this, Xiao Zhang, you still find the reason from yourself, let me ask you, it is the third day since the fraud happened, do you have any measures to deal with it?" Is there a way to deal with it? Zhang Yangyi: "Can Secretary Shen explain it clearly?" ”

Shen Qinghua said: "Chang Lingfeng was recommended by you, he is a layman at all, using a layman to serve as the principal of Fengze No. 1 Middle School has buried hidden dangers in itself, and now you still let him stay in the position of the principal of Fengze No. 1 Middle School!" There is not even a statement, is it a kind of protection? Is it an inaction? ”
