After arriving at Jinshan, Jiayi and Xu Shaowei basically seldom spoke, and even when walking, they would pay special attention to their surroundings and their feet to avoid making any unnecessary noises.
Communication relied more on gestures and physical contact, because any inappropriate sound could alarm the murderer.
If the murderer also lurked in the mountains and they failed to find him in time, and because of their negligence, they were discovered by the murderer first, they might not only miss the only chance to capture him, but also put themselves in danger.
Therefore, in addition to the agents having to master a lot of squatting skills, the choice of squatting area is also very particular.
Topography, wind direction, concealment, etc. are all included in the list of concerns.
Although the murderer may not be able to detect the presence of the agents based on information such as the smell in the air, as the hunter, the agents still have to try their best to be foolproof.
For example, everyone's arrangements are not only like this, but also include clearing all the dead branches on the toilet passage and laying soft, sound-absorbing humus; there are also precautions for handing over shifts, etc.
A female detective like Yi Jiayi actually faces more difficulties and troubles in squatting.
For example, it is not as convenient as men to go to the bathroom. She also needs to overcome more to resist the cold at night.
However, when squatting, Jiayi did not think much about her own affairs, but was more worried about Xu Shaowei.
In the eyes of others, she was young and could be protected, but in her eyes, Xu Shaowei was the fresh agent who had not yet entered Team B and needed to be cared for and trained.
Therefore, Jiayi was a little afraid that Xu Shaowei would fall asleep due to the difficulty in adapting, and she was thinking that if he began to nod and feel sleepy, she would poke him hard with her fingers. It is said that
pinching someone is the most painful when pinching a small amount of flesh, so if it really doesn't work, use this ultimate move.
As a result, she had designed all the tortures, but Xu Shaowei's eyes were always as wide as copper bells, and he didn't give her any chance at all.
In fact, compared to her, Xu Shaowei seemed more alert and tense. Lying on the dry grass that had been laid on the ground, his body was almost always stiff. At the slightest sign of trouble, he would subconsciously reach out to touch the gun, as if a few eye-catching tigers would suddenly appear from the Jinshan Mountain in Xiangjiang.
Jiayi does not need to worry about him snoring while sleeping. Instead, she needs to reach out and pat his arm frequently to calm his nervousness.
This young comrade in military uniform is 1.8 meters tall, tall and strong. Obviously he should look like a large bulldog, but Jiayi thinks his personality is more like that of a small dog, such as a Chihuahua or Teddy -
he is alert at any time, barks loudly at every turn, and is nervous and anxious.
Fortunately, although Xu Shaowei was nervous, he would not shout loudly. Jiayi was just tired for him. After staying like this all night, even if he was just lying on his stomach, he would definitely be so tired that his muscles would be sore the next day.
What a weird young guy.
After four hours of waiting, they were cold, tired and bored. What was even more disappointing was that nothing happened except for the occasional natural sounds. The sound of
insects as a signal sounded, and Jiayi and Xu Shaowei, who had already prepared to hand over their shifts, immediately left their posts according to the procedures and quietly went down the mountain from the other side of the forested path.
Sanfu and Gary, who had just simulated the sound of insects, appeared silently in the area where Jiayi and Xu Shaowei had just waited in the darkness and shadows of the trees.
...
It was still 12 hours in which the agents endured the cold night but failed to catch the murderer.
After the sun rose, Xu Shaowei and Jiayi returned to the foot of Jinshan to replace Fang Zhenyue and Liu Jiaming.
Before going up the mountain, Jiayi followed Yue Ge's advice: she and Xu Shaowei could take turns to rest when they were on standby together. To ensure that they would not catch a cold on the mountain, I would sleep while you were on standby, and you would sleep while I was on standby.
If anything unusual was found, they would wake up their companions and catch the suspect together.
In the morning standby, Jiayi slept for 2 hours first. While she was lying on the ground for a nap, Xu Shaowei lay on the
ground and stood guard, alert for any abnormalities. When it was Jiayi's turn to stand on the ground, Xu Shaowei rested, and Xu Shaowei still lay on the ground and stood guard, alert for any abnormalities.
Jiayi finally understood that this guy just couldn't learn to relax, or maybe he couldn't trust her yet.
After 4 hours in the morning, Jiayi asked Xu Shaowei if he wanted to go home and rest, but he refused.
So she decided to take the overly desperate young man directly back to the police station.
On the way down the mountain and through Sheung Kwai Chung to catch the bus, Jiayi couldn't help but persuade him:
"The Serious Crime Unit is not as dangerous as you think. In fact, I have been in the unit for so long, and I have only fired a gun once, in the Baojin Bank robbery. Come to think of it, I have never really hit anyone with this gun. We also have detectives in Team B who have never fired a gun and hurt anyone for many years. Relax a little and don't be so nervous."
"Who is the one who hasn't fired a gun?" Xu Shaowei turned his head and asked curiously.
"..." Jiayi. Is this the point? How can I tell him this. Doesn't Brother Jiaming have any face?
Xu Shaowei's question killed the conversation again, and the two of them walked on in silence.
Whenever she sees a taxi on the road, Jiayi will stop and approach Xu Shaowei alertly, disguising the two as lovers and staring at the driver to determine whether the other person is the murderer.
When Xu Shaowei saw her like this, he couldn't help but murmured: "Who said I was too nervous?"
The voice was so clear: You are no better, madam.
Jiayi had no choice but to point her eyes at him to show her dissatisfaction.
While waiting for the tram, Xu Shaowei occasionally looked at the people in the village. Seeing a man carrying a shoulder pole and walking through the alleyway of the village, he turned around and asked her:
"When you are a detective, you will always encounter strong male killers. Do you have any experience in defeating a killer?"
Jiayi turned around and said, "Does it count if you use a gun?"
"Sometimes the gun will be kicked away. What about pure fighting?" Xu Shaowei asked.
"I have been exercising recently through running and other methods, and I am also constantly reviewing what I learned in the police academy." Jiayi shook her head honestly after saying this, "But I have never had such a conflict experience."
Xu Shaowei thought for a while and said, "I will teach you a method for a small person to subdue a big person. I learned it in the mainland before."
"Okay." Jiayi immediately turned to face him, showing her interest.
Xu Shaowei nodded, turned to face her, observed her arm length, leg length and body proportions for a while, thought carefully for a while, then reached out his hand, tapped her arm, kicked and tapped her legs, and taught her how to get into the right position.
"With this position, your lower body will be very stable, and your hands will help your vital parts, and it will be very convenient to draw your gun. Remember this position." Xu Shaowei finished speaking, and then said:
"If I want to attack you, I may use my feet or hands. At this time, you have to do this.
"Then pin my feet, while still paying attention to stabilizing your lower body. Then do this again.
"After shaking and holding my hands, you have restrained me. Of course, you can't move in this way. If the murderer has help, you will be more passive, but it will be very useful to deal with a single murderer who is taller than you.
"When you restrain the murderer, don't be anxious, just pin him hard with your elbow like this. At first he will be very violent, but after being restrained by you, his emotions will gradually be worn away, and he will slowly feel scared, and because he can't get rid of you, he will feel frustrated.
"When you feel that he is getting depressed and his reaction is slow, you immediately let go, gather all your strength, and elbow him in the back of the neck.
"This way he will faint, and then you can handcuff him, and everything will be fine."
After Xu Shaowei finished speaking, he found that Yi Jiayi was still clinging to him from behind. He struggled but couldn't get away, so he had to step back slightly and said, "You can let go, madam."
Yi Jiayi suddenly stepped back and raised her elbow to hit him.
Xu Shaowei was startled and it was too late to dodge. Fortunately, Yi Jiayi didn't use much force when she hit him.
Taking a step back away from her, Xu Shaowei touched his nose a little embarrassedly.
Yi Jiayi was very happy, "It really works. I will train my eldest brother more and practice this skill. Thank you very much. "
Xu Shaowei avoided her gaze and hummed softly, but felt that the sound was not impressive enough, so he said loudly: "You're welcome, madam."
"Keep a low profile, the bus is here." Jiayi chuckled, patted his arm, and got on the bus first.
This time, after Xu Shaowei got on the bus, he did not choose the seat behind her, but hesitated for a few seconds and then sat beside her obediently.
Jiayi nodded at him encouragingly, and whispered cunningly:
"Although I am a senior police officer in rank and you call me madam, now you are also my little master in private."
Xu Shaowei looked ahead, rubbing his hands on his thighs to show that he was listening.
"If there is a chance in the future, we will fight side by side and make merit together. "Don't be so reserved. Everyone in Group B gets along well with each other." Jiayi nodded at him, which was also a recognition of him.
"I know." Xu Shaowei turned his head to look at her, and finally showed a more relaxed smile.
Jiayi was in a much brighter mood. Although the murderer had not been caught yet, the relationship with her new colleagues seemed to have improved.
