When the police are off duty is a mystery.

Ordinary police officers are a little better. After assuming leadership positions, unless there are really important events such as major funerals, they will call you when something happens, no matter if it is in the middle of the night or during off-duty hours.

The call from Captain Zhuang was very simple, just asking if Bai Song was busy.

"Mr. Zhuang, I'm fine. I'll have dinner with everyone when I get back." Bai Song answered truthfully.

"Don't call me that, it's not even a clue!" said Captain Zhuang.

"It's okay, it's okay, we'll do this in private..."

"Okay, okay, okay... I'm too lazy to talk to you... Have you eaten and drank?"

"I didn't drink." Bai Song said, "I planned to go back to the bureau tomorrow, so I didn't drink."

"Oh, that's it. OK, I understand." Team Leader Zhuang said, "Don't be nervous. Eat and drink when you need to."

After saying that, Captain Zhuang exchanged a few more pleasantries with Bai Song and then hung up the phone.

"What's the matter?" Liu Shuyuan asked.

"Tell me everything is fine." Bai Song said, "But it's already past eight o'clock, he wouldn't call me if everything was fine."

"Maybe he's just caring about you." Liu Shuyuan also felt something was wrong.

"It's raining so hard, why should you care? I guess they're very busy at work." Sun Jie said.

"Brother Ren, can you tell me what's going on?" Bai Song felt that he was still a little green, and since there were seniors around him, he asked immediately.

"According to what you said, it's not that he wanted to call you." Ren Hao said, "It's probably that the big boss arranged for him to contact you, and the big boss is right next to him."

"Hmm?" Bai Song thought for a moment: "In this case, after the call, should the Zhuang team report to the leader, 'Bai Song and his team just came back today, they are all drunk, and can't go to work, don't call them'."

"That's right." Ren Hao nodded, "I sometimes do this to help my subordinates avoid overtime."

"That won't do. We have to go back!" Wang Liang, who had just drunk a glass of white wine, said hurriedly.

"No," Ren Hao shook his head. "If this is the case, your team leader will definitely tell the senior leader that you were drinking. If you just go there, won't it make things difficult for him?"

Bai Song listened to Ren Hao's words and roughly understood the twists and turns here. The Zhuang Detachment had already blocked them, and if they just went back like this, it would mean that the Zhuang Detachment and the leaders were lying.

If it was Director Wei, it would be fine. But if not, this is a critical period for the Zhuang Detachment, and it would not be a good thing to leave a bad impression on the leader.

"What should we do then?" Bai Song frowned.

"You want to go?" Ren Hao said, "Wouldn't it be nice to have a day off?"

"I've been resting for so many days..." Bai Song said, "If I encounter a case in Weiwu City, I won't go. I can't hide behind Tianhua."

"Your attitude is really good!" Ren Hao said: "It's actually simple. It's not difficult for you to go, but you can't go without drinking.

So, you eat first, then drive to the office, park the car outside, and then drink a bottle of beer, then take a taxi to the office. Although you can't work after drinking, a bottle of beer, at most, has a little bit of alcohol smell, which won't delay anything. In such heavy rain, no one outside will know that you drank. "

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Bai Song said, "There's no rush. I'll accompany you to have a full meal, and then we'll leave."

"Haha, OK!" Ren Hao was very happy: "Let's have the main course."

There is really no need to rush. The Municipal Bureau is so big, it is better to leave these people behind! There is nothing wrong with going there after dinner.

However, Bai Song did not plan to take everyone with him. After thinking about it, he took Liu Shuyuan and Sun Jie with him. It would be bad to take everyone with him, as it would make it difficult for Team Zhuang to explain.

After eating for about half an hour, Sun Jie gave the car keys to Ren Xu and asked Ren Xu to drive his brother, Wang Huadong, Wang Liang and Zhao Han back.

It was raining heavily. Bai Song was driving on the road. The water in many places exceeded 20 centimeters. Some cars were directly stopped in the water. It was probably because water had entered the engine.

Once the engine is flooded and stalled, it must not be restarted! If you restart it, the engine is basically completely finished.

In today's situation, the rescue vehicles are simply unable to rescue the people. When the rain stops tomorrow night, there will be thousands more second-hand cars in Tianhua City that are "first-hand by beautiful women, with original paint".

When the water on the road is more than 20 to 30 centimeters thick, there will be half a meter of waves when the car is driving. Bai Song doesn't dare to drive too fast. His car is not too afraid of water taking in, but if the waves are too big, other cars will easily be flooded.

It was hard to get to the entrance of the Municipal Bureau.

"It's so shameful that a few grown men can't even open a bottle of beer!"

…

Bai Song's car was new after all, and he was reluctant to use the corners of the car to open wine bottles. None of the three smoked, and they didn't even have a lighter... As for using teeth, it's better not to do such things. Even if you have the best teeth, you shouldn't use them like this. It's not worth it.

"Just put a towel on it and pull it open." Liu Shuyuan looked anxious.

"Let me try." Bai Song picked up the towel from the car and covered the bottle cap with it, then pulled it off with force: "It's okay."

After saying that, Bai Song blew a bottle of wine with a "ton ton ton" sound.

After drinking, the three people who had drunk a little bit of wine walked a few hundred meters with umbrellas to the gate of the Municipal Bureau. They showed their ID cards to the guard and entered in the rain.

The Criminal Investigation Corps was very busy today. Under the building, more than a dozen police cars were flashing their lights. Several of them passed by Bai Song and slammed on the brakes. "Inspector Bai, you're back!"

The car window was opened a little and rain began to pour into the car. Bai Song said hello and the people in the car quickly closed the window.

Bai Song didn't see who was in the car until it left...

The three people entered the building in the rain, their clothes were mostly wet, and their shoes were already soaked.

It is the second hottest time of the year now, and in a few days it will be the third hottest time of the year, so no matter how heavy the rain is, it won’t be cold, and you won’t feel cold if your clothes are a little wet.

After taking the elevator to the sixth floor, Bai Song first went to the office of Captain Zhuang, but Captain Zhuang was not there.

Bai Song thought about it and decided to call the Zhuang Detachment first.

"What? You came here after drinking? Silly boy...Okay, who else is here?" When Captain Zhuang heard Bai Song say that he had drunk a bottle of beer, he felt a little touched.

"Liu Shuyuan and Sun Jie." Bai Song said.

"Okay, you wait for me in my office, I'll be there soon. The two people I brought with me are those who are more needed." Captain Zhuang said and hung up the phone.

…

Tianhua City has a population of more than 14 million, and the annual death toll is nearly 200,000, which averages out to about 600 people per day.

In a metropolis like this, dozens of lives are lost every hour.

The number of unnatural deaths every day is a few dozen, which is also normal. This number includes car accidents, accidents, suicides, deaths at home from illness, homicides, etc.

Here in the public security department, as long as the death is not due to old age or death in the hospital, it can be considered an abnormal death.

In medicine, death from illness is considered normal death. The reason why the police count death from illness at home as abnormal death is mainly because they need to investigate such cases to determine whether the person really died from illness or there are other reasons.

Today, a total of 35 unnatural deaths have been reported.

Among them, due to the influence of heavy rainfall, many houses collapsed in Tiandong District, some people were drowned, and some were electrocuted.

All branches stopped working and devoted themselves to disaster relief work and standby.

Every time there is such heavy rain, the city’s drainage is put to the test, and what’s amazing is that many sewer manhole covers will be lifted up!

If water flows out like crazy after the manhole cover is gone, everyone will know that there is a problem. But if the water cannot be drained anymore and there is no additional water flow after the manhole cover is pushed out, it will be very scary.

You can't even see there is a well here. Whoever falls into it will die.

In addition, at this time, it is very common for cars to break down or take on water. Many cars parked on the roadside can also be shaken by the waves caused by passing cars, and then several parked cars collide with each other.

Bai Song was very glad that he was driving an off-road vehicle, otherwise he might not have been able to come.

The reason why Team Zhuang stopped Bai Song from coming was also because of this consideration: the rain was too heavy!

But, with so many people working overtime today and able to come here, why would Bai Song hide behind?

"Our detachment is now providing targeted support to Tiandong District and Jiuhe District." Detachment Captain Zhuang said, "But we don't have enough vehicles. The detachment's sedans don't dare to go out, and the headquarters' several SUVs are all grounded."

"I have a car that you can use." Bai Song said, "Haval H9."

"You all drank alcohol, and drove here?" Team Leader Zhuang said, "You are quite courageous."

"No, didn't you say we drank alcohol... Then we must smell like alcohol. I let them drink a little, and I drank after I parked at the door. This is called drinking after driving." Bai Song said.

"You are so smart!" Captain Zhuang was in a good mood. "Then I will assign a driver for you. You can go to Tiandong District. I know you are more familiar with Jiuhe District, but the road conditions in Jiuhe District are better. We have just sent a pickup truck there. The water in Tiandong District is said to be deeper, and we have never been able to get through."

"Okay." Bai Song was very happy. He was put to good use right away. "Is there any murder case in Tiandong District?"

"Four." Team leader Zhuang said, "This is the district with the largest number of all the districts. Tiandong District is large in area and has a large population. I'll give you the information later. When we get there... forget it, I'll drive."

Captain Zhuang thought about it and felt that there was no point for him to stay here, so he might as well go there by himself, which would also make the other side pay more attention.

Today’s heavy rain has delayed things too much!

More than an hour ago, when Tiandong District discovered only two cases of unnatural deaths, it sent a team there. As a result, the car's engine was flooded and broke down on the way.

In such extremely bad weather, it is absolutely impossible to get a taxi.

There was no other choice but to contact the police station near the car to "rescue" the municipal police officers in the car, and then place these police officers directly in the police station to assist with the work.

At this moment, two more unnatural deaths were found in Tiandong District, and the Zhuang Detachment was getting anxious! Unexpectedly, Baisong's people and cars arrived!

"You are the timely rain... Forget it, let's not rain anymore..." Captain Zhuang wanted to praise him, then thought for a moment and said, "I have the case materials on my desk. You can take a look now. I will go talk to the leader about the situation. We will set off in ten minutes."

"Okay!" Bai Song nodded immediately.

All three of them drank very little and it didn't affect their work at all.

Of the four unnatural deaths, three did not seem to be a big deal.

The first one was death by electric shock. Whenever there is a heavy rain, this kind of abnormal death is always easy to occur in places like Tiandong District where there are rural areas and bungalows. Generally speaking, individuals have insurance in their homes, and if there is a leakage and electric shock, the circuit breaker will trip directly, but the high-voltage wires outside are not like this. Even if someone is electrocuted to death, there is no response at the main circuit breaker.

The deceased was a farmer. Because it was raining heavily, he wanted to go to the pigpen to check on him, but the power line was broken and he died.

The second case was a death due to spinal curvature compression fracture caused by house collapse. The family had placed a large water tank on the roof of the bungalow, probably for summer bathing. The rain was too heavy this time, and the wall collapsed. The old woman who was using the toilet below was directly hit by the wall, and then the water tank with half a tank of water fell on the old woman from the collapsed roof. When the police arrived, she was already dead.

The third person died of drowning, the cause is unknown. At present, it seems that he may have slipped and fell into the flooded Tianhe River. This was seen by an eyewitness, and then the Municipal Bureau dispatched the Water Security Division, who finally rescued him with great difficulty, but of course he was already dead.

This is also a woman. According to the witness, the witness was driving past the bridge, which was blocked and did not move. The witness could not hold it any longer and wanted to get out of the car to find a wall to urinate. As a result, she saw someone still struggling in the river, and then she called the police.

The fourth case is the most concerned case at present. A 26-year-old female nurse died after injecting a large amount of insulin in a hotel. The doors and windows at the scene were intact and closed, and the windows and doors were locked.

The deceased was lying on his back in the only big bed in the hotel room, naked, with his hands half-clenched, his left hand placed on his groin, his right hand bent inward, his legs naturally apart, his left thigh abducted and his calf adducted, and his right leg straight.

There was a needle and 10 empty insulin bottles in the room. There were no signs of fighting, but there was a handwritten suicide note.

In this report, an autopsy has not yet been performed, and the above information was provided by the on-site investigation police.

The first three cases in Tiandong District were all accidental deaths at the scene (tentative), especially the second one, which was very tragic and there were simply not enough forensic doctors.

This kind of city bureau targeted support has not appeared for a long time, because the combat effectiveness of each district is good. But everyone still underestimated the harm of this rainstorm.

It is said that in Tiannan District, two people drowned in a vehicle. This was a high-end Mercedes-Benz SUV. The female driver misjudged the depth of the water in the tunnel, and the car broke down. Because the car was locked, all electronic systems failed, and the water in the tunnel rose rapidly. The two female passengers in the car never got out.

…

After about ten minutes, Captain Zhuang came to find Bai Song, and then brought Deputy Captain Xing from the Third Brigade of the First Brigade, and they were sent out together in a truck from the Municipal Bureau.

The Municipal Bureau is so large that they have large trucks, but the large trucks had to be kept in reserve today. Tiandong District is quite far away, so they couldn't be taken there. The large truck took the five people to where Bai Song parked his car. Captain Xing drove the car, Bai Song sat in the passenger seat, and the five people drove straight to Tiandong District.

The rain is still falling.
