It has already entered September, and the weather is still hot. The rear deck of the Haixun 48 boat is so hot that it can fry an egg.

The wind on the river was strong, but Han Xiangning could not feel even a hint of coolness. She was wearing a safety helmet and a life vest, holding on to the hot guardrail, and stood on the deck to observe the oil stains after the sinking of the China Shipping freighter "Yuchang"

.

She was so hot that she was sweating profusely, but she didn't bother to turn on the air conditioner in the cabin. She held up the intercom and shouted: "Bureau Liu, Bureau Liu, there is an oil spill strip about three by three hundred meters long on the river. With the naked eye, the problem is not very serious.

There should be no leakage of fuel in the tank."

"Should we arrange a cleaning ship?"

"It's enough to arrange for one to come over."

Han Xiangning looked back at the direction in which the "Yuchang" sank, and added: "There is flooding in the upper reaches. The water level in the center of the river is very high. Several nearby navigation marks have been displaced. Only one coast guard boat is not alert enough. In order to ensure navigation

To ensure safety, we must immediately draw a warning circle in the accident waters, set up warning buoys, arrange for a coast patrol boat to be on duty, and issue navigation warnings to remind passing ships.”

"Copy that. Thank you for your hard work. Come back soon."

"Director Liu, I'm already here. Just keep an eye on the river for a while. There are more and more large and small boats passing by. You can't see the Yu Chang sinking in the river by looking out. If you collide with it, you'll be in trouble.

"

"Haixun 36 and Haixun 39 will be here soon. Come back first. You have more important work."

"What job?"

Deputy Director Liu stood in the traffic control center, overlooking the radar display results on the computer, holding up the radio and saying: "Jiangcheng Maritime Safety Bureau asked us to deploy elite soldiers to investigate this accident. Bureau Tang just called your name on the phone and asked you to join

Investigation Team.”

Han Xiangning subconsciously looked up at the shore and said with a grimace: "Director Liu, I am the security inspection section chief, not the accident section chief. What kind of investigation should I participate in?"

"The old manager is the chief of the accident section, but he doesn't understand English. Besides, this is a major collision between Chinese and Korean freighters. Korean shipowners and the Korean Shipowners Mutual Insurance Association will send people. In the words of the Tang Bureau, the personnel participating in the investigation must not only

The business is superb and must represent the image of China Maritime."

"Okay, I'll go back right now."

…

The maritime affairs department handles traffic accidents on the water differently from the traffic police on shore.

Once a shipwreck occurs, the economic losses will be huge. In addition, it involves rescue, salvage and loss of the cargo carried, and the disputes will also be huge. It is not something that a few maritime law enforcement officers can mediate, and in the end almost all of them will go to jail.

Admiralty Court.

Moreover, lawsuits cannot be settled in a few months. At least eight out of ten lawsuits will be appealed, and many lawsuits will eventually go to the Hanwu Maritime Court.

The accident investigation conclusion of the maritime department is an important basis for the court to make a final ruling and must withstand scrutiny.

Therefore, when investigating an accident, shipowners, insurance companies and shipowners' mutual insurance associations will arrange for professionals to participate. This is not a bad thing for maritime affairs, and only the investigation conclusions drawn in this way can convince the public.

In fact, not only when dealing with traffic accidents, but also when the security inspection department detects serious defects in the ship and makes a decision to detain it, the shipowner will entrust a professional surveyor to participate. The security inspection personnel must be familiar with domestic laws and regulations and various international conventions, and make a decision.

The shipowner must be convinced of the decision to stay.

Han Xiangning realized that the accident would have a great international and domestic impact, and felt the pressure from the bureau leadership. He hurriedly asked the driver to adjust the course and dock, and hurried to the bureau in Santana parked at the dock.

Unexpectedly, when I walked out of the elevator, I saw that the junior student was actually carrying his luggage at the entrance of the accident department talking to Bureau Liu, the management department and the director of the traffic control center Wu Haili and others.

"San'er, when did you come back?"

"I flew back at night."

"Where should I sit?" Han Xiangning asked happily.

Han Yu put down his luggage and explained with a smile: "I took a ride from Xiamen to Donghai, slept at the airport until dawn, and took a long-distance bus back this morning."

Han Xiangning asked: "Where is the anti-smuggling boat? Where are Guo Weitao and Xiao Gong?"

"The 825 boat completed its replenishment and rest the day before yesterday, and went to sea early yesterday morning to perform security missions outside the exercise area. Director Qian and Xiao Gong will continue to cooperate with the active forces in the exercise and will not be able to return until the exercise is over."

"So the exercise is not over yet?" Deputy Director Liu asked curiously.

"Um."

"Then why did you come back?" Wu Haili asked.

Han Yu hesitated for a moment and said with a bit of embarrassment: "Director Liu, Director Wu, and the management department, to be honest, I am here to participate in your subsequent accident investigation."

Before Director Liu could speak, Han Xiangning asked with a confused look on his face: "You are not a cadre of our bureau. What kind of accident investigation are you participating in?"

"I am your PSC inspection consultant. If you think that I, as a consultant, am not qualified to participate in the accident investigation, then I will participate as a consultant of China Shipping Group."

"You came back through the back door!"

"You can't say that. Don't worry, I was an observer when I participated in the exercise. Observers only have eyes and ears. They cannot and cannot express opinions. I will do the same when participating in the accident investigation. I will never embarrass you."

He suggested setting up two reserve transportation groups there. Now their freighter collided with a Korean freighter, so they thought of him and asked him to come back to help smooth the relationship!

Han Xiangning reacted suddenly and said without thinking: "No, how can you participate in the accident investigation? As long as you stand here, people may question our investigation results. You should avoid suspicion for this kind of thing!"

"I'm not the only one participating in the investigation. Besides, Director Feng found this job for me."

As soon as Han Yu finished speaking, the section chief asked in surprise: "Xianyu, did the old director ask you to come back?"

"Who else but him could call the exercise headquarters? The two major generals helped me ask for leave from my superiors. I don't even think about coming back." Han Yu sighed softly and stressed helplessly: "You think I am

If you want to get involved in this matter, I won’t be able to hide in time.”

Deputy Director Liu couldn't believe his ears and murmured: "How could Director Feng ask you to help China Shipping to use the back door? Besides, Director Feng has only worked for COSCO for two years and has never worked for China Shipping. He has no relationship with China Shipping."

How have we ever dealt with each other?"

Han Yuzheng didn't know how to explain, so Han Xiangning said in a fit of laughter and tears: "Director Liu, the matter is very simple. He spoke freely during the exercise and actually suggested to his superiors to form several reserve transport groups in COSCO and China Shipping. Unexpectedly, his superiors actually accepted it.

.”

"Then what?" Bureau Liu asked subconsciously.

"He had nothing to do to find work for others, and of course they wanted to find something for him to do, so they wanted to transfer him to be responsible for building up the reserve force. Even if he died, he would not dare to go. Bureau Feng had no choice but to help him wipe his ass in the East China Sea.

.In other words, he helps Director Feng find things. If Director Feng wants to open up the situation, he will naturally find something for him to do."

"I understand, if Director Feng wants to set up a reserve force there, he will definitely need his support. Now that he is in trouble, of course he has to do something."

"But this is an accident investigation, nothing else!"

Han Yu was embarrassed by the senior sister's remarks and said hurriedly: "Ning Ning, I told you that I only have ears and eyes and will not express any opinions. You are investigating yours. The main reason I came back is to show that I will not treat Zhong Hai."

Take things seriously."

Building national defense reserve forces and maritime law enforcement are two different things.

Han Xiangning felt that public and private matters should be distinguished, and Digu said: "Why do you only have ears and eyes? Those who know the inside story know that you just want to show your attitude. Those who don't know the situation will really think that you don't trust our investigation!"

"It's not as exaggerated as you said. I'm not an outsider."

"I won't agree to it anyway. If you insist on participating in the accident investigation, I won't. I don't want to be misunderstood."

"Ning Ning, don't worry. Xu Ju and Zhu Ju will be back soon. Let's see what Xu Ju and Zhu Ju say later."

"All right."

…

I rushed back excitedly, but was disliked by my senior sister.

Han Yu was a little disappointed, so he put down his luggage and followed his senior sister to the cafeteria for a meal, then borrowed the Maritime Safety Administration's phone number to contact Director Feng.

"Are you in Binjiang?"

"I just arrived and Ning Ning just gave me a scolding."

"Ha ha ha ha."

"Director Feng, you can actually laugh." Han Yu was afraid of being laughed at, so he quickly walked over and closed the door.

"It's normal to be told by Ning Ning. I feel weird that she didn't rip off your ears."

"Director Feng, is it interesting that you always talk about the past? And it is really not appropriate for me to come back to participate in the accident investigation. You are an old leader, an old cadre, and an old party member. You really shouldn't mention this to the leaders of Zhonghai, let alone call me.

return."

"What should I do or shouldn't? I can't help myself in this world!"

Director Feng cursed with a smile, looked at the military uniform that his wife was ironing, and said with a smile: "You know what to do next, just go back. If you don't go back, how will I carry out my work here?

You should do it, I didn't blame you, but you kid blamed me."

The implication of the elders' words is very clear, it doesn't matter if you don't do anything next.

Han Yu simply didn't want to worry about the accident investigation and asked curiously: "Director Feng, can the situation over the East China Sea be opened up?"

"Everything is difficult at the beginning. If you think of a way and put in more effort, the situation will open up sooner or later."

Director Feng took another look at the new military uniform and said with a bit of self-mockery: "In order to get me into the state as soon as possible and to make it easier for me to carry out my work, my superiors actually sent me a set of military uniforms this morning."

Han Yu was stunned and asked in surprise: "Director Feng, have you been drafted into the army?"

"How is it possible? Given my age, even if I want to go back to the army, they won't want me."

"Then why are you giving me military uniforms?"
