Chapter 104 Chapter 104 Two more chapters

Huo Buwei didn't expect that the first person he would see here was him.

But when he asked, he quickly reacted and answered.

"Long time no see, how are you doing lately?"

Lu Junhua stood up and sat down, stretching his muscles while motioning him to come over and talk.

"Everything is fine. Did you come here from down there?"

The tiredness in his eyes could be seen with the naked eye, and he couldn't hide it any longer. Thinking of the current situation, Lu Junhua felt a little emotional.

"Hey, think about it, the teacher had to go to the hospital because of me. If I still don't care about anything, I will be a real inhuman." He was telling the truth. People around him advised him to stay calm and come back to apologize after the case was handled.

But he didn't want this to happen. He thought about it carefully and decided to come back.

Lu Junhua was stunned when he heard this. The teacher is sick?

Thinking back on what happened during the day, he always understood.

Why didn't Deputy Captain Gao bring Jia Jia to see Mr. Cui? I thought...

Seeing the thoughtful look on his face, Huo Buwei came back from his thoughts and asked, "By the way, have you met the teacher?"

Lu Junhua shook his head: "No!"

Huo Buwei then understood the general situation.

Lu Junhua looked at his watch and saw that it was almost ten o'clock. I thought it would be better for him not to rest here and take him outside to talk.

The continuous snoring sound that came one after another really disturbed them.

"We didn't see Mr. Cui today. Jia Jia was assigned to handle a theft case. We only found out when you said Mr. Cui was in the hospital."

Huo Buwei's face froze, "Is that so? I wonder if Comrade Yu Jiajia..."

He still wanted to see her in person. Some things were difficult to say over the phone, and the purpose of his trip was also to meet her.

Lu Junhua saw his intention and took him upstairs.

"She is in the room upstairs. She probably hasn't rested yet."

Huo Buwei followed him upstairs. In addition to the staff on duty every time, more lights were on upstairs.

Seeing Lu Junhua bringing in strangers, the police officers who had been busy all night just nodded without asking any questions.

Lu Junhua led him forward smoothly and only stopped at the door of Deputy Captain Gao's office.

Arriving at this floor, the two walked straight inside, passing through a series of brightly lit conference rooms.

Because of the need, the political commissar replaced Jia Jia's office with a larger suite for three people to use. Also because she felt sorry for the man not being able to sleep well in there, she asked him to go outside and rest for a while before coming back.

Huo Buwei looked around and was somewhat surprised at the luxury of the interior of the city branch, which was in no way inferior to that of Shanghai.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a woman's voice coming from inside.

"That won't work. These are all placed in order. You don't need to move them."

"Yes, that's all."

"Do you understand?"

Captain Huo was a little surprised when the girls spoke several sentences in succession.

But then a low male voice replied.

"knew."

Huo Buwei, who was half a step behind, instantly looked at the man in front of him.

This, this, people don’t mind.

Lu Junhua knocked on the door, "Jia Jia, are you done?"

Jia Jia, who was about to say something in the room, looked up and saw him appear again, and couldn't help but frowned.

"Didn't I tell you to go and rest? Why are you back again?"

Lin Tao, who was in the cubicle in the room, also popped his head out and nodded cautiously when he saw Lu Junhua. "Team Lu!"

Huo Buwei, who was half a step behind, immediately emerged from the door.

Just then, he saw Captain Lu nodding at him and then walking towards his wife.

Then I saw this scene.

The dazzling comrade Yu Jiajia, next to her stands the imposing Lu Junhua, and there is a young man at the very edge.

After Lin Tao finished speaking, he lowered his head and started working again.

Even Huo Buwei didn't dare to look, and Huo Buwei knew that he was overthinking.

But the point right now is not this, "Comrade Yu Jiajia, hello!"

Yu Jiajia was very surprised, "Captain Huo, why are you here at this time?"

As expected of a husband and wife, they always ask the same questions.

"Ahem, there are some things that need to be taken care of. Is there a place for us to talk?"

Yu Jiajia nodded, indicating that this place was good.

Just close the door and the privacy is good.

Yu Jiajia was about to put away the drawing paper when she saw Lin Tao looking at her from a distance.

Huo Buwei and Lu Junhua naturally discovered it as well.

Before Yu Jiajia could speak, Huo Buwei walked up to him and greeted him.

"What's your name, comrade? I'm Huo Buwei."

Lin Tao's cheeks turned red, and he felt even more uncomfortable as he looked at the hand stretched out in front of him.

Huo Buwei had forgotten about him long ago, and the reason he greeted him was to talk about what happened later.

"Hello, Captain Huo. I'm Lin Tao."

"Ah, Comrade Lin, you are too polite. Just call me Comrade Huo. I'm not Captain Huo." Huo Buwei really didn't notice his embarrassment, he just thought he was a little shy.

Then he said, "The case we are going to talk about later is quite confidential. Could you please..."

"Oh, I know. I'll be right out."

Lin Tao glanced at him and immediately lowered his head again.

The person in front of him was indeed extraordinary. He secretly looked at the person who could talk and communicate with Captain Lu, and he knew how powerful he was just by thinking about it.

"No, it's not that I don't doubt you. I mean, could you please keep it a secret for now? We may need your help with what we're going to talk about later."

After Huo Buwei finished speaking, he did not forget to look at the couple.

Seeing that Lu Junhua showed no sign of refusal, he knew what to do.

"Really? What can I do?"

It was past ten o'clock in the evening, in a meeting room on the first floor of the Municipal Branch.

There were a few people sitting separately.

They each sat on their own side, with Yu Jiajia sitting in the middle, with Huo Buwei and Lu Junhua on both sides, and next to Huo Buwei was the recorder Lin Tao.

"So you have to finish the theft case before you can take over my case?"

Yu Jiajia nodded, "It should be at the moment."

"From what I understand, your case is handled jointly by the First and Second Brigades. However, due to the suspect, we don't have enough clues at the moment."

Huo Buwei frowned, "This man is indeed very unusual. Captain Lu, I'm sure you know that we used all the police forces we could to intercept him, but he always had a chance to escape. And we haven't heard from him for a week, we're afraid there will be more cases."

This is also what he and the police at the front are most worried about.

Yu Jiajia held the pen and listened to their analysis carefully.

Lu Junhua said in a deep voice: "But based on the current information, that person is very good at hiding his whereabouts, and the human wave tactic has no advantage against him."

Lin Tao wrote furiously and finally found something that suited him.

"Indeed, Wujiang County has decided to lift the ban and cancel the interception order today." Large numbers of police forces have been dispatched for many consecutive days, and the time and manpower consumed are immeasurable.

But the murder has already happened and the murderer has not been caught. How should they explain it to the people?

Huo Buwei had a heavy burden on his shoulders, but the public security leaders on the front line were also so worried that they had lost most of their hair. Those who knew him well were more or less looking forward to his trip to the city.

As Captain Huo said this, the originally lively atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

Yu Jiajia actually wanted to add something, but this sentence was too unorthodox and would cause big problems if it got out. So she endured it and didn't say it out loud.

She just asked, "I remember there is a witness next to Captain Huo, right? In that case, why don't I go and meet him?" Although Deputy Captain Gao asked her to draw the thief, he didn't say that she couldn't take another one.

Huo Buwei quickly understood what she meant and his eyes lit up.

Lu Junhua frowned and looked at her with worry in his eyes.

I feel really bad for her health. Just one case is enough to keep her busy, and now with that big case, she will definitely have to endure it.

"Is this true?" Captain Huo was so excited that he couldn't help but speak, and then he saw Captain Lu's expression again.

In fact, he also knew that if no new victims appeared, the case would remain at a standstill, with no way to close it or move forward.

Sometimes bad thoughts flashed through his mind, but as soon as the sun came out, he immediately overturned those thoughts.

Lu Junhua looked very unhappy, but he did not stop Jia Jia from speaking.

Yu Jiajia didn't notice his affection, and spoke to Captain Huo seriously and solemnly.

"I can only promise to do my best, but I still don't know whether I can draw it or whether it is accurate." She actually needs to rely on a lot of things, such as their testimonies and conversations, and even the slightest missing detail can result in a different portrait.

Huo Buwei was extremely grateful and wanted to hug her.

"I know, I know. Comrade Yu Jiajia is really grateful to you. Don't worry, no matter what the final result is, I will always be grateful to you." The man said this and added. "And Captain Lu and Comrade Lin, I remember them all."

Lin Tao was grateful for being brought along for the first time, and he stayed up with them for half the night.

Huo Buwei took them directly to the municipal hospital.

They first met the assistant comrade and the sleeping Mr. Cui at the door.

I really didn't expect to meet the young couple in this way. They were confused, but they became familiar with the assistant.

Fortunately, the assistant was alert and woke up when he heard the door opening. He restrained his force, otherwise Huo Buwei would have been hit by several punches.

The three people who had met before were waiting outside, and Huo Buwei stayed inside for a while before coming out.

Yu Jiajia noticed that his eyes were red and pulled Lu Junhua's sleeve.

The man touched her head and looked at the faint blue and black marks on her little face, his eyes filled with heartache that almost overflowed.

Yu Jiajia had been very sleepy for a long time, but this time she looked very energetic.

Especially hanging around in the hospital late at night was a really strange experience.

Several people followed him, turning left and right, and arrived at the door of a ward. They saw that there was someone guarding the door.

Huo Buwei went up and said a few words to the man, then turned around and called them over.

"Come on, let's go in."

"Captain Huo, only two people can go in."

Huo Buwei frowned and nodded at him, then explained to them, so in the end Lu Junhua and Lin Tao stayed.

Yu Jiajia entered the ward well prepared.

But when she saw a square-faced man sitting on the hospital bed and looking at her, she was a little dumbfounded?

Didn’t they say that a comrade who was chasing the murderer was seriously injured?

But Yu Jiajia looked at the person in front of her and thought, why doesn’t he look like her?

Captain Huo took the lead and introduced the two sides.

"This is Comrade Yu Jiajia."

"This is my colleague Wang Jianshe. He is also the person who has the closest contact with the suspect."

Yu Jiajia stepped forward and shook hands with him. Wang Jianshe's attitude instantly softened a lot, and he looked at her with shock in his eyes.

"Hello, Comrade Wang. I am Yu Jiajia."

"Oh, hello, hello, Comrade Yu."

When he tried to sit up, he forgot that the wound on his body was torn.

Captain Huo quickly grabbed the man and said, "Hey, take it easy."

It was only at this time that she, who was standing next to him, noticed that the wound was on his waist.

"Okay, okay, there's no outsiders here now, so let's get down to business, otherwise the nurse will come to urge us later." Huo Buwei muttered to him, turned around and smiled at her with a good temper.

Yu Jiajia said she understood and tried to sit closer.

"Comrade Wang, I need to give you some information next. You need to pick out the one that you think best matches the suspect's facial features. If you can't remember clearly, don't think too much about it. Just pick the one that looks familiar to you at first glance."

Wang Jianshe listened carefully and just nodded when he heard her last sentence. But seeing how young she is, I don’t know if she can succeed.

Especially since even Xiao Huo was there, he suppressed the urge to ask about his situation and silently followed her pace.

So Captain Huo next to her watched her take out several things wrapped in oil paper from her canvas bag.

Then, the oil paper packages were opened one by one and placed on the bed.

Yu Jiajia picked out the nose, eyes, mouth and eyebrows first, and then asked him to find the most familiar face shape.

Lao Wang was also worried that he couldn't explain it clearly and would delay her painting.

But seeing how well prepared they are, I feel a little more confident.

Maybe it really can work, he secretly encouraged himself in his heart, constantly recalling the scene of that day. But no matter how hard I tried to recall, I couldn't see that person's face clearly.

After all, they were not close to each other. When he was chasing on the shore, the man was already paddling the boat some distance away from them.

As for the things Yu Jiajia asked, he could only rely on his vague memory.

"It seems like this, and it seems like this." He pointed at two similar faces.

Yu Jiajia nodded quickly and kept painting with the brush.

"Diamond-shaped face?" This face shape is not common.

Lao Wang didn't hear clearly what she said and went to look at other details of the facial features.

I picked this one, put it down, and chose another one.

This time, about ten minutes had passed and he still hadn't made a choice. Yu Jiajia didn't urge him, but secretly wrote small words next to the portrait.

"Short in stature, good at disguise, and good at hiding."

"Foreign accent, great strength."

She circled the foreign accent and looked at Captain Huo.

Huo Buwei stood there with his eyes wide open, staring at Wang Jianshe without blinking.

It was her voice that startled him. "Captain Huo, I have a few details I want to check with you."

"Ah, you say."

"I remember the first case happened at night. The butcher said he saw a man with a green face and fangs. What was going on?"

Captain Huo pinched the bridge of his nose and forced himself to wake up.

"We have asked about this matter and wanted to bring him here, but the person refused, so I went to ask again. Butcher Li said that he only took a peek through the crack in the door. He said that he happened to see the man's eyes and thought he wanted to eat him."

"Is that so?"

"How tall is that butcher?"

Captain Huo recalled, "He was a little shorter than me, about 1.65 to 1.7 meters tall."

Yu Jiajia nodded and wrote a few more words on the paper.

Huo Buwei really wanted to see what she wrote, but he was too embarrassed to speak.

Yu Jiajia estimated that the man's height might also be in this range, or even shorter. In that situation, the butcher might have shrunk his body and looked out, but the suspect was much calmer than him and his height was no more than 1.7 meters.

Because of this detail, she can rule out some eye shapes.

The direction of painting can also be changed, starting from looking up.

So based on the guessed styles, Yu Jiajia drew several eye shapes in succession and asked Wang Jianshe to judge.

Lao Wang looked at this and then at that.

I don’t think so!

Yu Jiajia reacted quickly and showed him the shape of her eyes after looking straight ahead.

Wang Jianshe looked at Xiao Huo and said uncertainly. "Comrade Yu, to be honest, I'm not sure if I saw it at the time. I only saw the face vaguely, and I can't remember the details."

Yu Jiajia also realized that his memory was not very clear.

But I didn’t expect it to be like this!

Huo Buwei was also surprised, because Lao Wang had never mentioned this before. But he immediately realized that they didn't seem to have asked clearly before.

"Okay, let me think about it."

Yu Jiajia was silent for a moment, then changed her mind.

"Then let's change the method. Now you don't need to think about what that person looks like. You just need to tell me what you would intuitively think if I asked you to describe his facial features."

Lao Wang was stunned, memories flooding his mind.

Force yourself to stay calm and not think about what just happened.

Yu Jiajia and Huo Buwei both looked at him with expectation in their eyes.

"Yes, yes, think about what that person's entire face looks like?"

Wang Jianshe forced himself to sink into consciousness and recalled the scene when he tracked down the river bank that day. At that time, they received a sudden notice that the suspect had run towards the dock.

It was originally the place to intercept the hardest-hit area, and soon a public security team showed up.

And this was the person in the group. Lao Wang led the team to chase after him, and he used all his strength to jump onto a small boat to chase the person in front.

However, due to the disadvantages of terrain and water, Lao Wang and his team were always one step behind.

It is this distance that makes them visible but untouchable from the suspect!

They had no intention of giving up and were determined to catch the person. However, after the suspect rowed the boat to a swamp, the boat remained but the person disappeared.

Lao Wang and his team immediately became alert, and after repeated screening, they found that the person was missing.

The only person who saw the man's face at the closest distance during the whole process was Lao Wang, who rushed to the front.

"I, I saw a short and stocky one."

"stumpy?"

Lao Wang murmured, "Yes, he is not very tall. His face is...just ordinary."

There is no difference. I can't remember it after just one look.

Yu Jiajia frowned. She had an ordinary face and ordinary facial features.

So how to match it with a diamond-shaped face?

As she was thinking, the door was suddenly pushed open.

The three people were so frightened that they all looked towards the door.

"Hey, hey, hey, who are you? Don't you know that there can't be anyone in the ward?" A person dressed as a doctor and a nurse walked in from outside the door.

"Yes, you woke up. You are still injured. Get some rest."

The nurse came up angrily and accused.

When he saw Huo Buwei and Yu Jiajia, he was obviously stunned.

Yu Jiajia reacted quickly, fearing that they would lose her things, and quickly put away all the materials.

Lao Wang didn't dare to say anything even after being scolded, and helped her put away the things.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we really have something important to ask him. We will make sure he has a good rest after we finish." Captain Huo explained to the doctor.

The doctor was obviously very angry. "I don't care what you have to do. Obviously my patient is still recuperating. Please get out immediately."

The nurse who had checked the wound complained to the doctor with a cold face.

The two people who were scanned by the gazes couldn't stand it any longer, so they said a few words to Lao Wang and hurried out.

"I'm sorry, Comrade Yu, for troubling you until now. In that case, can you draw the person?"

Yu Jiajia shook her head to indicate that it was nothing and thought about it. "There are still not enough clues. I can only draw some of them at fixed points."

Huo Buwei was a little disappointed, but still felt it was okay.

As the two were talking, they realized that there was only one person outside. Where were Lu Junhua and the others?

Yu Jiajia looked inquiringly, and Captain Huo asked directly.

The comrade standing guard at the door pointed outside and said, "They said they will be out for a while. If you come out, wait a while."

Yu Jiajia knew where they were going, so she was no longer in a hurry.

I found a seat and sat down, and my head started to feel dizzy.

She thought about it and took a nap, since she was just waiting anyway, and soon fell asleep leaning against the wall.

Half an hour after she took a nap, Lu Junhua and the others came back.

The first time Lu Junhua saw his sleeping wife, he hurried over.

He directly helped the man half up and said, "Let's go back first."

Captain Huo nodded when he heard this, and this time the group returned to the guesthouse.

After putting his wife into bed and giving her a quick wash, Lu Junhua closed the door again and went out.

Lin Tao had already been persuaded by him to go back and rest, and then Lu Junhua knocked on the door.

Huo Buwei poured cold water and splashed it on his face to keep him awake.

When I heard someone knock on the door, I quickly went to open it.

“Here I come.”

"Well, what are your plans after this?"

Huo Buwei asked back, "What about you?"

Lu Junhua sat on the bench rudely, staring at him sharply.

"Huo Buwei, what on earth are you doing?"

When Huo Buwei heard this, his expression did not change at all.

"What are you talking about?"

Lu Junhua's expression became even colder, "I don't believe you would be stupid enough to issue a military order directly." Or rather, I don't believe he would be so conceited.

Although he was capable and confident, Lu Junhua felt strange when he saw him suddenly appear and put together the clues.

Seeing this, Huo Buwei poured himself a glass of water.

His expression also became different from that during the day, and the anxiety between his eyebrows disappeared completely.

Sure enough, there is a problem!

Huo Buwei drank another large jar and stared at him seriously.

"Can I trust you?"

“Can you participate?”

In the silent night, there were two silent people and in the silent atmosphere.

Neither of them spoke, just looked at each other.

The flames of temptation, speculation and doubt collide with each other until they are finally extinguished and turn into determination!
