Xu Jiajia didn't want to hear this. She rubbed her temples and said, "I looked at the files. We've been investigating for so long, so there should have been some progress. Why haven't we made any progress at all?"
The director thought of his colleagues who had sacrificed their lives for this case and sighed softly: "It's not that there were no splashes, but that the police investigating this case were either in trouble or that one."
Xu Jiajia perked up when she heard this. She sat up straight and said, "Tell me more about it."
Seeing that Xu Jiajia was listening attentively, the director twitched his lips, stood up and walked out of the office.
Xu Jiajia: “…”
He actually went on strike with her!
If you don't want to tell her, then don't tell her. She doesn't have to listen.
Seeing that the director ignored her, Xu Jiajia simply picked up the newly published newspaper and read it carefully.
That wasn't enough, she also crossed her legs and put them on the desk.
The director returned to Xu Jiajia's office with the enamel cup in hand. Seeing her sitting with her legs crossed, reading a newspaper with a relaxed expression, his eyelids twitched. "Comrade Xu Jiajia, can you please have some sense of office?"
Xu Jiajia put the newspaper away and spoke slowly, "I wasn't late, nor did I have any conflicts with my colleagues. Why don't I have the self-discipline of a working person?"
The director pointed at Xu Jiajia and said, "Other people are not like you!"
Xu Jiajia raised her chin and spoke word by word, "Everyone is unique.
Others don't need to imitate me.
Besides, life requires a sense of relaxation. If you try too hard, you won’t go far.
A life that is too tight, twisted and anxious, but if you relax, you can get twice the result with half the effort, you know?
Xu Jiajia's words actually led the director astray: "Is this your secret to solving cases?"
Should he also learn from Xu Jiajia?
Xu Jiajia paused and said, "It's somewhat related, but not a big deal."
She was relaxed and simply wanted to enjoy life.
The director took a sip of water, sat down across from Xu Jiajia, and continued the previous topic: "The case you took over was initially handled by five police officers. During the investigation, their families were often threatened. They refused to believe in evil and continued to investigate for five years despite the enormous pressure.
Just in these five years.
Three were killed and two were seriously injured."
"We've chosen you to take over this case because, firstly, you haven't been at the Public Security Bureau long, so the people behind the scenes won't notice you. Secondly, you're very capable, so the higher-ups believe you'll make a breakthrough.
You must keep this a secret and not tell anyone."
Of course, Xu Jiajia wouldn't say such a thing: "My family only knows that I got a promotion, but they don't know that I will only take on difficult cases in the future.
I also asked Wang Hui and Huang Ying to keep it a secret."
The director nodded: "Yes, in our line of work, we have to talk less."
Xu Jiajia stroked her chin and looked at the director: "How are the two seriously injured people now?"
The director sighed softly, feeling sorry for his former colleagues: "One has become a vegetable, another has a broken arm, and they retired from the Public Security Bureau and went to work in a textile factory."
Xu Jiajia: "I want to meet the senior with a broken arm."
The director laughed and said, "I advise you not to go. It's useless to go. He won't say a word to you."
Xu Jiajia spread her hands and said, "If we don't try, who knows? He must have seen those people before, otherwise, his arm wouldn't have been broken by them."
The director didn't want to punish Xu Jiajia, so he simply gave her an address.
Get the address.
Xu Jiajia went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some fruits and malted milk and came to the South Road Hutong.
She stopped a female comrade and asked, "Hello, I'd like to ask where Comrade Wenlong lives?"
The female comrade pointed to the last room on the third floor and asked, "You live there. Who are you to his family?"
"Colleague." Xu Jiajia said, "Thank you, comrade."
Xu Jiajia climbed to the third floor and came to Comrade Wenlong's house. She didn't see any adults, only a child of eight or nine years old, sticking his butt out and dragging a bathtub. There were not only changed clothes in it, but also a basin of water.
Xu Jiajia walked in and asked the child, "Where are you dragging it to?"
The sudden sound startled the child. He put down the bathtub and did not answer Xu Jiajia's question. Instead, he looked up at her and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm here to see Comrade Wenlong. Who are you to him?"
The child was stunned: "Do you have something to do with my dad?"
Xu Jiajia nodded: "I have something to do. How about this, tell me where the bathtub is and I'll help you mop it."
The child clapped his hands and shook his head in refusal: "No, no, just leave it here.
My father is not at home. He has gone to the countryside. Come back tomorrow."
Xu Jiajia, who had made a wasted trip, said: "Okay."
Xu Jiajia put the gifts she bought on the table.
Although the little boy still wanted it, he finally resisted the temptation: "Sister, take these things back."
Xu Jiajia refused: "It's for you to eat."
The little boy threatened her: "If you don't take it back, you will never see my dad again."
Xu Jiajia: “…”
The little brat is very awesome!
How dare you threaten her!
Despite all the complaints, I still took it away in the end.
Xu Jiajia thought she would be able to see Wenlong the next day.
Who would have thought.
Still didn't see him in person, but I saw his wife.
He was a very thin and gentle man.
"Hello, I'm here to see Comrade Wenlong. Is he not at home?"
Wenlong's wife was also worried about Wenlong, and before going to the countryside, she agreed to come back this morning.
It's already noon, and there's still no sign of anyone. This reminds her of the scene five years ago when her man was surrounded.
"He's not at home. Who are you? What do you want from him?"
"I work at the Public Security Bureau. I've recently encountered a bottleneck in the cases I've taken on, so I'd like to seek advice from Senior Wenlong."
