Chapter 87
Political Commissar Wu was surprised and amazed when he heard the analysis results. "You can even guess his occupation! This clue is so helpful to us!"
"You will know the difference after you have seen it many times. I will write a detailed report on how I distinguish them. If you need, you can make a copy for your files."
Even though Tang Qingqing only said a few short sentences when she spoke her conclusion, the preliminary work required was extremely complicated and required precise calculations and reasoning.
In the past, it would have been difficult for Tang Qingqing to summarize because she was more of an empiricist and could not explain it clearly.
But after she went to school, her written language expression ability became better and better, and she read a lot of professional books sent to her by Zhai Hongyi, which made her know better how to express her own views using language and theories that everyone is familiar with.
It’s just that writing a summary is always time-consuming and laborious, especially in order for everyone to understand it, she has to write it in more detail, which is not easier than directly doing the appraisal.
Sometimes the appraisal only takes a dozen minutes, but writing the report takes most of the day.
"We need it so badly!" Political Commissar Wu responded quickly, "Give me your phone number when you're done writing it and I'll have someone copy it!"
Tang Qingqing was also very happy that her work was respected and valued.
"If you catch the criminal, please let me know. If you can give me a copy of his information, it will be easier for me to summarize and learn from him. Just call this number."
Every time Tang Qingqing finished an identification and caught a criminal, she would observe the other party's situation to see if there was any difference between the other party and what she "saw" in her mind. Only by analyzing and summarizing the differences can the next identification be more accurate.
Political Commissar Wu naturally agreed, and even pressed the issue by asking, "Can I still ask you to do an appraisal in the future?"
"Anything I can do to help."
"Will it affect your studies?"
Political Commissar Wu knew that Tang Qingqing was still in high school and he liked her studious personality very much.
"I will make the arrangements. However, the identification may not be available as quickly after school starts, which may delay your efforts to solve the case."
It was enough for Political Commissar Wu to get this affirmative answer. Ordinary cases would definitely not be sent to Tang Qingqing. Only cases with no clues would be sent to Tang Qingqing.
Tang Qingqing hung up the phone, took out a dime from her pocket and gave it to the owner of the canteen.
The canteen is located in a machinery factory, and this phone is installed for the convenience of the factory employees to make phone calls.
It is not easy to install a telephone nowadays. You have to wait in line for a long time. Although Tang Jianguo is the factory director, he has never installed one in his home.
Firstly, it was really difficult to install a telephone; secondly, Tang Jianguo didn’t want to be treated specially.
If anything really happens, just call the factory's duty phone or the home area phone and you will be able to find him quickly.
When Tang Qingqing was on the phone, the boss kept listening with his ears tilted up.
Seeing Tang Qingqing finish the call, he couldn't help but ask, "Can you really tell so much from footprints?"
The canteen is often the center of gossip, so the boss had heard that Tang Qingqing had this ability a long time ago, but many people thought it was too mysterious.
What can you tell from a footprint? Everyone wears shoes, and many people wear the same shoes. How can you tell them apart?
But the public security comrades came over and called Tang Qingqing an expert, so people had no choice but to believe it.
Tang Jianguo is a factory manager. He can't lie to Tang Qingqing just to save face.
Moreover, some people in the factory have relatives working in the Public Security Bureau, so we can find out what is going on by asking around.
Tang Qingqing didn't answer, but just glanced at the boss: "Uncle, your right leg has been broken before, right?"
The boss was surprised. "How did you know? Did anyone tell you about this?"
It is true that his leg was broken before, but that was a long time ago. Now, apart from some dull pain on rainy days, he walks like a normal person.
"I can see that. Whenever the body is injured, there will be marks left. Uncle, I'm leaving now."
After Tang Qingqing finished speaking, she left with a smile, waving her sleeves and leaving without a trace of cloud, leaving the boss and the people present in shock.
After Political Commissar Wu got the clues provided by Tang Qingqing, the comrades in charge of the case continued to investigate based on these clues, and found the real culprit three days later!
The criminal was a fired firefighter who was fired for disciplinary offenses such as theft.
Unexpectedly, after being fired, he not only did not accept the lesson and correct his behavior, but became even worse and stole even more recklessly.
In another case, Tang Qingqing also quickly gave the appraisal results.
The police officer in charge used her identification as a clue to investigate and caught the criminal.
Tang Qingqing had to make and receive phone calls every time, and as a convenience store at the center of public opinion and gossip, everything she said would quickly spread.
After this conversation, most people in the machinery factory believed that Tang Qingqing was indeed a capable person. Some people even sighed that she was worthy of being the daughter of Director Tang, and that everyone in this family was smart.
There is a reason why Director Tang's family is envied and hated. Not only are Mr. and Mrs. Tang so capable, but each of their children is not only good-looking but also very promising.
The eldest brother Tang Jiquan is now the technical backbone of the factory. Even without Tang Jianguo's connections, he can still do well based on his abilities.
He was the best one in school and everyone was vying for him.
The second son, Tang Jidong, is now a graduate student!
The third child is indeed not very capable now, and acts like a street urchin, but he has been smart since he was young.
My adopted daughter is in the art troupe and is often the lead dancer in cultural performances.
Nowadays, daughters who grow up in the countryside are so outstanding. How can people not be jealous?
"I think it's their seed that's good, not their education. Look, this biological daughter is so outstanding even though she was born in the countryside. I think she's even more outstanding and beautiful than the adopted daughter."
"It's hard to say. An adopted daughter in the art troupe is easier to marry than a biological daughter. If a leader takes a fancy to her and lets his son or grandson marry her, things will be different in the future."
"That's true. No matter how capable a woman is, it still depends on the man she marries."
"I don't agree with that. Women hold up half the sky! How can a woman's excellence depend on the man she marries?"
"It's better to marry well than to work well! What's the point of being capable? If you're like that person who can't get married at the age of 30, what's the point of being an official? You might cry secretly in your bed in the middle of the night. No matter how bad we are, at least we have someone who understands us by our side. It's so much better."
"Bah! You are such an old-fashioned person! If you have the guts, go and say that to others!"
"Look at what you are talking about. Now both of them are unmarried, so who knows what will happen in the future. Anyway, it seems that the biological child is the capable one now."
"That's right. When I was a kid, I thought he was very smart, much smarter than other kids his age. Now he looks just like an ordinary person."
"She's spoiled, she dresses up all day long, her mind is crooked..."
Ever since the machinery factory learned about the real and fake Qianjin, there has been no shortage of discussions about the two.
At first, everyone thought that Tang Qingqing must be very jealous when she came back and saw how beautiful and outstanding Tang Zhenzhen was.
How distressing it is when something that originally belonged to you is snatched away by someone else.
Everyone thinks that the most hopeless member of the Tang family is probably this daughter who was raised outside. The third child of the Tang family is unreliable now, but she has a good father and is smart, so she will be fine in the future.
Tang Qingqing is different. She has been shaped in the countryside, so it’s useless even if she has a good father.
But fortunately she is a girl and she can just find a good man to marry.
Unexpectedly, she is no worse than Tang Zhenzhen. She can make her own way without her parents' help.
Such rumors soon reached Tang Zhenzhen's ears. She had many young ladies in the machinery factory, so she was much more informed than Tang Qingqing.
"I think she's just showing off. Otherwise, why would she go to the grocery store to make these calls and pay for them herself?"
"That's right. These are serious matters. You can go to your father's office to make a call."
When Tang Zhenzhen heard these words, her face turned pale but she had to hold it back.
"My sister is really amazing, don't talk nonsense."
"We are not talking nonsense. Now everyone in the factory says that she is better than you. She is indeed your biological daughter. She is different. If someone has nothing better to do than to spread such a rumor, it must be someone who did it on purpose."
"Isn't it? Even my old lady likes to mention her and says how great she is."
Tang Zhenzhen almost poked a hole in the cloth in her hand and was glared at by the salesperson, which made Tang Zhenzhen feel even worse.
Tang Zhenzhen still wanted to be generous, but in the end she couldn't help but ask, "Did everyone really say that?"
"Why would we lie to you? If we weren't sisters, we wouldn't tell you the truth."
"That's right. We don't want you to be like a fool and not know what others are saying about you."
Tang Zhenzhen pursed her lips and said nothing.
The two little sisters did not let her off, and kindly reminded her: "In short, you should be careful. I think she is not a good person."
"That's right. She grew up in the countryside and her life must have been hard. Seeing you look so glamorous, I don't believe she doesn't have any thoughts."
Tang Zhenzhen was happy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face: "You guys think too much, my sister is not that kind of person."
The shorter of the two sisters said, "She didn't recognize you even though you called her sister. I heard you say she got along well with your third brother before. I think you should be careful."
"Be careful about what?"
"She wants to take away the love of your parents and brothers! In the past, no one except you could sit in the back seat of your brothers' cars, but now..."
"That's right. Now everyone says that fake is fake. When there is no comparison, it still feels like Haicheng, but once it comes, you can see the difference."
Tang Zhenzhen's face suddenly darkened. She had been practicing dancing so much that she was very irritable, so she wanted to go out shopping to relax.
I brought my two little sisters along hoping to hear some good words, but it turned out to be the opposite.
Not only is there nothing to do here, but after hearing all these things, I feel even more anxious and depressed.
But she couldn't show her emotions, otherwise everyone would accuse her of being narrow-minded, stealing other people's lives and yet looking down on the real thing.
She could only hold back her temper and ask everyone to stop discussing this topic, but she just couldn't get it out of her mind.
"Can you please talk less?" Tang Zhenzhen interrupted.
The ladies were also unhappy when they saw this.
"We are also standing up for you. Why are you angry at us?"
"That's right. We didn't say that. You also want to know what others think. It's not us who said that you are not as good as Tang Qingqing."
"We are often told that we are not as good as you. You were very proud when you knew it. Did we get angry with you then?"
Tang Zhenzhen was so angry that she came back from shopping without even having a good time. When she got home, she saw Tang Jixue walking out.
Tang Zhenzhen thought of what her little sister had said to her today, and quickly called him
"Third brother, can you help me buy some cakes from Longqing Restaurant later? I really want to eat them now."
Tang Jixue rolled his eyes angrily: "Can you feel sorry for your third brother? How long do you have to wait in line to buy the pastries at Longqinglou? If I queue up, I don't have to do anything today."
Tang Zhenzhen was even more unhappy when she heard this, "Third brother, you can't even satisfy such a small request of mine!"
"But I really don't have time today. I just came back to get something, and someone is waiting for me outside."
Tang Zhenzhen didn't believe what he said. It was obvious that he was just making excuses to fool her. She pouted and her eyes turned red.
"Third brother, how did you become like this now?"
Tang Jixue felt that he was wronged. "Why did you bring this up? I really don't have time right now. Haven't you seen how busy I have been lately, leaving early and returning late every day?"
"You weren't like this before. You would agree to whatever I asked you to do. There weren't so many reasons at all!"
“That’s because I had more free time before.”
"You, you have changed! You are no longer my old third brother!"
After saying that, Tang Zhenzhen rushed upstairs crying.
Tang Jixue was confused, "What the hell is going on here?"
Although he felt speechless, Tang Jixue still asked someone to help him queue up to buy pastries and had them delivered to him.
However, Tang Zhenzhen did not calm down her anger and resentment, and she did not touch the cakes.
If it were in the past, she wouldn't have to lose her temper. She could just tell her brothers that they would buy it for her no matter how busy they were.
But now it's different. She needs to make a fuss to make her presence felt in this family and have others pay attention to her feelings.
Tang Qingqing, who was also being talked about behind her back, did not have the same worries as Tang Zhenzhen. She was busy every day and had no time to deal with those gossips.
Even if she heard some negative speculations about her, she would only feel a little uncomfortable for a while, or think that the person who said these things was mentally ill, and she would quickly calm down.
When she was in the countryside, she had such an attitude towards Tang Jianjun and Zhao Dahua that many people talked about her behind her back, saying that she was unfilial and too independent.
She often took Zhai Hongyi and Wang Heizi with her to run around, and sometimes they would be away for several days before returning. Although everyone knew that she was going to solve a case, such close contact was really inappropriate.
Especially after Tang Qingqing grew up and became a beautiful young lady, these gossips were inevitable.
If she cares about these things, she won't be able to live a carefree life. It will only restrict herself and bring no benefit.
But this doesn't mean that she doesn't hold grudges. If a family speaks harshly, she will spread the word directly that if anything happens to that family, including their relatives and friends, in the future, she will never get involved, and no one should ask her for help.
At first, no one took it seriously. After all, they were the only ones who got into trouble, and when things didn’t happen to them, they thought it had nothing to do with them.
Later, someone actually set a fire in one house, and the firewood stored for the winter was burned.
Tang Qingqing just refused to show up to solve the problem. After all, she was not a police officer and it was not her obligation to investigate the case.
As a result, not only did the firewood get burned in vain, but the family that Tang Qingqing had said she would not bother with could also easily have things stolen from them.
No matter where you are, it is difficult to completely prevent petty theft; there are always those who are lazy and want to take shortcuts.
But ever since Tang Qingqing appeared in the local area, thieves would be caught whenever they stole something, so they dared not to take action anymore.
Now they found that Tang Qingqing didn't investigate every time something happened, so they focused on those families, which caused everyone to stop talking nonsense about Tang Qingqing.
Those who are dissatisfied may complain to the captain, but it is of no use. Who told you to be so mean?
Don't even think about using violence. Tang Qingqing has solved so many cases, and most of the victims are protected by Zhien.
After the two cases were solved, both police stations sent Tang Qingqing banners to thank her for her efforts, which caused a lot of discussion in the machinery factory.
In particular, his ability to solve serial burglaries impressed everyone.
Although the area where the accident occurred is relatively far from the machinery factory, the case frightened many people, so the news spread here as well. After hearing about it, many families installed iron bars in their homes.
The case, which had been making no progress, was unexpectedly solved so quickly because of the clues provided by Tang Qingqing.
Originally, the stubborn man refused to admit that Tang Qingqing was a capable person, and those who suspected that she was just posing shut up.
Tang Qingqing's reputation in Yang City began to spread. The public security bureaus in various districts sent her photos and plaster models for her to help identify, and the police would come to the machinery factory to look for her from time to time.
Whenever someone in a police uniform walked into the family compound, everyone basically assumed that they were there to see Tang Qingqing for work.
There are those who are not convinced and can't help but say sour words.
"It's like there's no one in the Public Security Bureau. What's the point of showing off?"
When Tang Qingqing was about to start school, a theft occurred in the machinery factory!
