After hanging up the phone, Bai Song prepared to go on a business trip to Tianhua. He hadn't been back for a long time.

Many people may have forgotten about Zhang Xiaotian. In fact, Bai Song has probably almost forgotten about it as well.

After attending Xu Fang's book club, Bai Song went to find Zheng Yanwu. Zheng Yanwu was too short to drive a car, so he had to be accompanied by someone else. At that time, Wang Huadong helped him find Lin Feng, and later brought Zhang Xiaotian.

Zhang Xiaotian is a young man full of energy and hope for the future. He is very motivated. It was the winter of 2011, and Bai Song had initially solved the murder case of Li. At that time, Bai Song was still very poor. He was shocked when he heard that a second-hand Unimog cost more than 3 million yuan, and Zhang Xiaotian was also very excited.

Last year, Bai Song got married and saw Lao Zheng and Lin Feng. When he heard that Xiaotian had left the team for his personal life, Bai Song understood. Time flies, and it has been almost seven years. Zhang Xiaotian still has parents, and he has to get married and have children. It is impossible for him to follow him around and take photos all the time.

But who would have thought that such a young man would be so quiet...

Bai Song knew that, logically, he would never know about this kind of case.

First, this is not a murder case. A traffic accident is considered a crime of negligence. The Criminal Investigation Bureau won't even take a look at it. Not to mention the Criminal Investigation Bureau, the Tianhua City Criminal Investigation Corps won't even ask about it.

Second, no one knows that Zhang Xiaotian and Bai Song have a relationship!

Yes, except Bai Song, all of Bai Song’s police friends didn’t know or even heard of Zhang Xiaotian. He was just an ordinary passerby. If Zhao Han hadn’t paid attention, no one would have noticed that he was dead.

At that time, all his brothers came to Beijing with him. With Zhao Han's strength, he was qualified to come, but Zhao Han did not come. Instead, he chose to go to the Xingang Branch and follow in his father's footsteps.

After the death of Captain Zhao, Zhao Han returned to the Xingang Branch as deputy captain, which was considered an important task entrusted by the leader. The deputy captain of the serious crime team still has a lot of resources if he wants to do something. Zhao Han is really willing to work hard. He not only perfectly solved some safety hazards in the port area, but also caught more than a dozen waves of smugglers. In the past few years, he has won one second-class merit and three third-class merits!

To be honest, few police officers have the same enthusiasm as Zhao Han. Zhao Han really hates these smugglers and those companies that do not follow the safety operation procedures. There are countless people in the entire port area who are afraid of Zhao Han. However, the port area is so small after all, and after the crackdown, there are fewer and fewer cases. Recently, he has been idle, and the Municipal Bureau comes to help when there is something.

After looking at all the homicide cases and finding no problems, Zhao Han began to look at various other murder cases. Unexpectedly, he actually found a problem.

…

Upon hearing the news of Zhang Xiaotian's death, Wang Huadong and others were very shocked.

It has been quiet for so long recently that no one knew that such a thing happened in Tianhua City at the beginning of this year.

"If you calculate the time, it happened not long after we went to Mengcheng for training," Wang Huadong discovered something.

"Are you afraid that we will find out?" Bai Song felt that what Wang Huadong said made sense. The timing was indeed a coincidence. "But, in fact, even if we were in Shangjing, we would not know about Tianhua's affairs."

"It's a psychological problem," Sun Jie said. "It's like when a man takes his mistress out to play, he basically subconsciously avoids the area around his home. Even if he knows his wife is at work and it's hard to be discovered, he still subconsciously avoids this area even when he's driving."

"Brother Jie," Liu Shuyuan looked at Sun Jie, "How do you understand this? This is not normal."

Sun Jie had a good temper and ignored Liu Shuyuan's words: "In psychology, this effect is called...guilty conscience."

"Psychology..." Bai Song was speechless, but he also agreed with Sun Jie's words.

"Anyway, since this case has been discovered, we must report it to Director Wei. Let's follow the official process and go over to take a look at the case." Bai Song thought for a moment and said, "I originally thought it would be bad to alert the enemy, but we can't investigate privately after all. With our current identities, if we go and check cases directly, if we find this case, the local leaders will definitely attach great importance to it and mobilize different resources."

"Well, then we can't just check this one case, that would cause too much noise. You've been investigating cases all over the country recently, so if you check all the murders in Tianhua City now, no one will say anything." Wang Liang also nodded: "Who are you going to take with you?"

"Shu Yuan must go. He has more say over Tianhua, and it will also be easier for us to get some private clues. Wang Liang must go with me too. Zhang Xiaotian has been dead for so long, so there's no need to worry about surveillance. But you have to go to get the video footage that the police kept at the time and some traces on the Internet. That's it, bring two more clerks." Bai Song said.

"Not bad, not bad. You have the potential to be a leader now." Wang Liang nodded with satisfaction. First, he could go, and second, he didn't have to do chores. Naturally, he was happy.

"After all, this is an official spot check. Actually, there aren't that many people involved. Usually, there are more than ten people going down for one trip." Bai Song said, "Let's keep it simple."

"I think it's okay," Liu Shuyuan nodded.

It is not convenient for the entire team to go there for such a thing. It is too conspicuous and easy to be gossiped about. People who don't know may think that Bai Song is taking people back to Tianhua City to visit his relatives. Therefore, Bai Song would rather take two more clerks than take everyone back with him.

Generally, such applications are slow, but Bai Song's group had some privileges and they talked to Director Wei about it. Director Wei explained the matter at the meeting in the evening of the same day, and he explained it very thoroughly. Since they were all senior leaders, there was no need to be secretive.

The big boss agreed. It was a simple matter. The notice was sent directly to Tianhua City that evening. From Liu's father and Ma Dong to the detachment leaders below, everyone received the notice.

The Criminal Investigation Bureau will soon be conducting random inspections and checks to crack down on organized crime and to verify major and serious cases in the past year. The inspection will begin tomorrow.

Such a notice made many leaders a little stunned. This... a day's notice in advance? They must have grasped the problem!

Many leaders with a keen sense of smell will not leave work at all that day, and will directly lead the serious case team to investigate the recent cases overnight. They must not be unaware of any problems! If they find any problems, it is also very good to report them in advance!

The special campaign to eliminate gangsters and evil forces that started this year has already arrested many protectors, so no one ignores the investigation by Bai Song and others! This level of attention definitely represents ideological awareness.

This is also the reason why Bai Song doesn't dare to come back casually on weekdays. His identity is indeed special now, and coming back will inevitably alarm some people.

Of course, there are also people who understand the situation. Ma Donglai is one of them, because Director Wei called him.

He is now the chief of the Criminal Investigation Corps. Some people also call him Director Ma. He is definitely a big boss, but he still attaches great importance to this matter. He directly arranged for Zhao Han and others to take charge of this case, and called the deputy directors in charge of criminal investigation in each branch to come to a meeting tomorrow morning. Not only that, the leaders of the traffic control department were also called in. It was a big scene.

Ma Donglai missed Bai Song and others very much. He actually wanted to see what this little guy who almost vomited when he saw a corpse seven years ago has grown into now.
