Chapter 29: Teenage Elegy 07 Who hasn’t had a fight as a child?
Chapter 7
"Have a drink of water first." Jing Jue handed the warm water to Lu Changfeng.
The water temperature is just right.
Jing Jue is a very thoughtful person and good at taking care of others. He not only prepared water for Lu Changfeng, but also for Zhou Yu and Yue Fanglin.
After drinking the water, Yue Fanglin joked, "Our Xiaojing is very good at taking care of people. When you fall in love in the future, your significant other will be blessed."
Jing Jue glanced at Lu Changfeng, who was drinking water calmly without joining in the conversation.
Yue Fanglin was just joking. In a tense working atmosphere, an occasional joke or two can help relieve stress.
Jing Jue sat next to Zhou Yu and helped him.
Lu Changfeng finished drinking the water and began to sort out today's interrogation records. He analyzed the case with Yue Fanglin: "These people are trying to cover up the truth, but it proves that there is something wrong with the five dead. Other students said that they were not bullied by these people. According to Xu Hao's testimony and the teacher's testimony, it can at least be said that they only bullied Xu Hao for a long time in the one year since they came to this school."
Yue Fanglin nodded in agreement: "The children who were questioned today all said that although they went to the same school as these five people before, they were not familiar with them, and they didn't even know whether they bullied other students. The middle school in the town has only dozens or hundreds of students in a grade, and the school is only the size of a palm. They all said that they knew nothing about it. I don't believe them when they say there is no problem."
"The more they try to avoid us, the more problematic they are." Lu Changfeng twirled the pen in his hand, thought for a moment and said, "How about this, tomorrow Jing Jue and I will go to Bailong Town and find the teachers in the middle school to learn about the situation and check the school disciplinary records. We will also ask around in the town to see if there have been any serious bullying incidents in recent years. You and Xiao Zhou will stay here. If we make any progress, we will notify you immediately. Then you can try to pry open the mouths of these students based on what we find out."
"Okay, I'll do as you say. If there is any progress in the autopsy, I'll update you as soon as possible."
Early the next morning, Lu Changfeng and Jing Jue, accompanied by police officers from the Municipal Bureau, went to Bailong Town.
Bailong Town is the most remote town around these schools. Deep in the mountains, there is a nature reserve to the north of Bailong Town. There are more than 2,000 species of plants and rich species. There are many national first-class rare animals and plants. Illegal entry is prohibited.
In the early years, when it was not yet designated as a nature reserve, many people came to steal national first-class protected animals and plants, and many rare species of plants in the mountains were almost dug to extinction. With the continuous strengthening of patrol management in recent years and the prohibition of illegal entry, the ecological environment has recovered.
Bailong Town is located in the mountains. The car moves along the river. The town is built on the flat area upstream of the river.
There is a bend every ten seconds, and outside the bend is a naturally formed river channel with gullies and ravines. When Lu Changfeng was in Chuncheng before, he had visited many surrounding towns and villages to handle cases and had traveled on many difficult roads, but he didn't dare to drive on this kind of road. If he wasn't careful, he might either hit the mountain or rush into the ditch outside the road.
There is no signal on mobile phones in these mountains, so we might not be able to make a rescue call, and even if we do, we may not be able to find him.
The policeman from the police station who was driving in the front seat saw his expression and said, "This is the first time for the leader to drive this way."
"It is indeed the first time." Lu Changfeng said: "It must have consumed a lot of manpower and material resources to build this road."
The police officer said, "That's right. It took five years to build it. In the past, people lived too scattered in the mountains. Now all the houses in Bailong Town are funded by the state. We have gathered all the scattered houses in the surrounding mountains together, so that everyone can enjoy the convenience of national development."
He sighed, "Development outside is too fast. There is no future for staying in the countryside. Most young people have gone to work in other places. Those who remain in the town are the elderly, or women who work in the surrounding areas and take care of their children and stay at home to take care of the elderly."
They talked about this topic all the way. It took them more than three hours to drive less than 100 kilometers, and it was already noon when they arrived.
The police took them to the police station in the town.
The police officers from the police station welcomed them warmly and took them to have a home-cooked meal.
"Leader, please try the agricultural products from our mountains."
These things are all good things, wild mushrooms, wild wood ear, bamboo shoots, and ferns.
The fried bacon is also excellent.
If you buy these things outside now, the quality of this kind will cost several hundred yuan per pound.
The police told them: "There are entrepreneurs in our town who have invested in mushroom farming, which can help our people earn some pocket money to a certain extent."
Lu Changfeng said quickly: "Very good, very good. Now we are vigorously developing and helping farmers so that the people can live a good life."
As he spoke, he picked up a large piece of vegetable for Jing Jue and said, "Je Jue, eat more. When we leave, we will buy some back and give them to everyone as gifts so that they can have a taste of it too."
"Okay." Jing Jue agreed.
After chatting for a while, Lu Changfeng got to the point, "Yuan Suo, have there been any school violence incidents in the schools in our town?"
Director Yuan quickly shook his head: "No, at most students in school fight or something, it won't escalate to the point of violence. Most schools can handle it themselves, and there's no need for our police station to come."
Lu Changfeng: "There are some minor frictions, but they are not a big deal, right?"
Yuan Suo nodded and said, "It's normal for students to fight with each other. The teachers stopped them in time. Who hasn't fought when they were young? Don't you think so?"
Lu Changfeng glanced at Jing Jue and nodded.
Jing Jue was concentrating on eating, so he didn't dare to raise his head to talk to him.
Thinking back to the time when he started arguing and getting angry with Lu Changfeng, it was because he had a fight with someone at school. Fortunately, the police who handled the case at the time did not file a case for them. If they had a criminal record, he would not have been able to be a policeman.
After lunch, Lu Changfeng and his team were preparing to go to the school to investigate the situation. A man came over in a hurry, dragging a cart of things. When he saw Yuan Suo, he asked, "Director, you said that the leaders want mountain products. Are these enough? If not, I can bring another cart."
Yuan Suo said to Lu Changfeng: "Leader, please see how much you want. We still have a lot in stock."
Lu Changfeng thought that since they were already here, he might as well solve the matter first and then go to the middle school to investigate the case, which wouldn't take much time.
When I opened the box, I saw that it was full of packaged gift boxes, each box weighing one kilogram.
He counted the number of people.
Mingtang and his family had to give 5 boxes, each member of the serious crime squad would get 1 box, Chen Yanjia would get 3 boxes since she was pregnant, and the others would add in, and he and Jing Jue would keep 2 boxes for a taste.
"I want 30 boxes. You can calculate the total price and I'll transfer it to you. Just give me a receipt."
The delivery man scratched his head and looked at him in confusion: "What money?"
Lu Changfeng patted the box of dry goods, "The money for these things."
The man looked at Lu Changfeng in confusion, then at Director Yuan, "Director, what do you mean? Isn't this a gift? Why do you have to pay for it?"
When Lu Changfeng heard this, he quickly jumped away. It turned out that they wanted to give it to him for free. How could he dare to accept it? He quickly waved his hands and said, "If you give it to me for free, I don't want it. We don't play that game. We just pay what we deserve."
Yuan Suo also reacted quickly. He thought Lu Changfeng meant to give him some when he left, without paying for it. It turned out that Lu Changfeng was a practical man and meant to buy a batch from them.
Yuan Suo immediately said, "It's my fault, it's my fault, I didn't make myself clear."
"Old Ji, please calculate how much 30 boxes cost and give the boss a zero."
Old Ji did the math and said, "198 per box, times 30 is 5,940. I'll give you 5,000."
Lu Changfeng was amused by the generous way that the elder brother surnamed Ji rounded off the amount: "Brother, this is not the way you round off the amount. We should just take the amount as it is. Be realistic and give me the normal expense receipts."
After thinking about it, he asked, "Can you issue invoices here?"
Lao Ji said, "Yes, leader, as many as you want."
After hearing this, Lu Changfeng felt like his head was about to explode. The fact that they said this showed that there were a lot of unspoken rules here. It was thanks to him that he asked this question, issued an invoice, and kept the payment proof. If something really happened in the future, he would be able to explain it clearly.
Yuan Suo was also embarrassed, thinking to himself, "Old Ji, what are you doing?" "Of course, we will open as many as we buy."
Old Ji finally reacted and felt a little scared. It was fortunate that the leader who came was from the police station and not the tax bureau or other department.
Lu Changfeng thought that if he had known earlier, he would not have asked for this thing, and he would have almost had to switch from criminal police to anti-corruption.
Jing Jue watched Lu Changfeng's feet constantly crushing stones on the ground, and he knew that he was very panicked.
After Lu Changfeng gave the money, the boss in the town said that they could provide express delivery. Lu Changfeng left two addresses, one was the address of the Chuncheng City Bureau, and the other was the address of the Yancheng Criminal Investigation Bureau. He also wrote down the quantities on each of them so that he didn't have to take it back and mail it himself.
Lao Ji will send the invoice over later.
The school was only two or three hundred meters away from the police station, so they walked there.
Lu Changfeng asked Director Yuan, "Do you often send gifts to leaders here?"
Director Yuan waved his hands quickly and said, "It's not what you think. These things are not expensive. To help farmers, we usually give a box of these products to leaders from the city when they leave, so that they can try them. If the leaders' families like them, we can give a discount to local cadres, which is also a disguised way of helping farmers. Sometimes, when public institutions want to provide benefits to their employees, they may purchase a batch from us, which is also a disguised way of helping farmers."
Lu Changfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it was some kind of bribe. In the past, their bureau purchased rose tea during the holidays and said it was to help farmers.
Yuan took them to the school to meet the principal, who looked quite young, about forty years old.
The principal came over to greet them and took them to his office for reception.
On the way to the office, Lu Changfeng made clear his purpose of coming here.
Ask him: "Is there a lot of bullying in school?"
The principal led them into the office, arranged for them to sit down, pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Bullying and fighting are inevitable."
