Episode 25 recap: "Some people have eaten contaminated fish.
Some people created a commotion at the Comprehensive Governance Center, feeling that Director Yang intentionally negotiated a low compensation amount for themselves. Others mentioned the issue of the fish, believing that even if there is a problem, there should be a way to handle it. Now, there are problem fish circulating in the market, causing many people to fall ill. Xiao Li Ming asked Director Yang about the compensation for the traffic accident case, and Deputy Director Yang stated that it has already been settled. The person involved crossed the barrier and violated traffic rules, hence bearing full responsibility. The driver was also unlucky, but out of humanitarian considerations, they agreed to a compensation of 180,000 yuan.
Xiao Li Ming thought that since the driver was not at fault, there shouldn't be a need for compensation. Director Yang explained that the deceased was a young person, and his mother, who now has white hair, suffered immense grief. Out of humanitarian considerations, they decided to offer some compensation. Xiao Li Ming didn't say anything further. The deceased's mother, Teacher Du, created a scene at the Comprehensive Governance Center, believing that Director Yang intentionally negotiated a low compensation amount. She claimed to have inquired about it and stated that if she were to file a lawsuit, she could claim much more money. She was convinced that Director Yang had received a bribe from the driver.
Teacher Du caused a commotion and even cut down the commendation plaques received by Director Yang. Xiao Li Ming learned about the incident and quickly came to mediate, persuading Teacher Du to leave. Someone recorded the incident and posted it online, leading to many discussions. Liu Xiao Tong and Xiao Li Ming's mother also saw the incident. Xiao Li Ming's mother felt frustrated, believing that these people didn't truly understand the facts and were spreading baseless rumors.
Xiao Li Ming's mother mentioned that Director Yang, as a mediator, only receives a small bonus of a few hundred yuan. He willingly helps others, which is why he takes on these responsibilities, but few people understand that. Xiao Li Ming's mother believed that mediators are also human beings who require understanding.
Xiao Li Ming's mother came over to cook for Director Yang, touching him deeply. The driver sent a message to Director Yang, informing him that Teacher Du had initiated a lawsuit. Director Yang mentioned that they have already applied for a fast-track process and will resolve the matter soon. He asked the driver to understand the emotional state of someone who lost their son and not rush things. If there are any issues, he assured the driver that he will help him."
The driver claimed that he could resolve the issue. Upon hearing that there was a problem at the Comprehensive Governance Center, Director Yang arrived only to find that Xiao Li Ming had already repaired his commendation plaques. Some sticky notes were attached, containing words of gratitude from people he had previously helped. Those whom Director Yang had assisted came with their commendation plaques to express their gratitude, believing that without him, they wouldn't be where they are today.
Director Yang also expressed his sincere appreciation to everyone. Jiang Chuan Lai's father discovered that all the fish had inexplicably died. Jiang Chuan Lai suggested not selling them, as there could be potential risks. His father relied on selling the fish for income, and if he sold even one less, he would suffer a loss.
Jiang Chuan Lai's father discussed the issue of the fish, believing that even if there is a problem, there must be a solution. He shared this information with someone who frequently purchases fish. Jiang Chuan Lai tried to dissuade him, but his father ignored him. Ma Le, who was on vacation, happened to pass by and came to see them.
Zhang Feng Jiao discussed her situation with Song Qi Chang, hoping he could help her. Song Qi Chang mentioned that he could make a phone call to erase the record, but he believed it might create an even bigger stain. He advised Zhang Feng Jiao to think it through.
After considering it, Zhang Feng Jiao decided not to go through with it. Now, there are problem fish circulating in the market, causing many people to fall ill. Xiao Li Ming received news and closed a cold storage facility, where excessive heavy metals were found in the fish. Three children from Fang Shu Ran's school also consumed the fish and were sent to the hospital for gastric lavage.
Jiang Chuan Lai's father was brought in for investigation. He realized that he had suffered significant financial losses this time and regretted not listening to his son's advice of not selling any fish.
