"Well, Brother Li, you and I are the best friends. I need some money tomorrow morning. Can you lend it to me?" Bai Song said sincerely, "I will return it to you within three days after returning to Tianhua City."
"Okay, that's easy. How much do you want to borrow?" Li Han took out his wallet.
"Three thousand." Bai Song said seriously.
"Three thousand?" Li Han was shocked and took his wallet back. "What are you going to do? Did someone trick you into buying some local specialties?"
Bai Song did not shy away from telling the story of how Ma Zhiyuan saved Bai Song's life by causing a horse to fall off a cliff. Ma Zhiyuan saved Bai Song's life at that moment, so he had to give Ma Zhiyuan some compensation, whether it was to compensate for the horse or to express his gratitude. He only had 7,000 yuan in his card, so he wanted to give Ma Zhiyuan 10,000 yuan, so he had to borrow it from Li Hanlai.
"Is there such a thing?" Li Han widened his eyes.
Bai Song told Captain Zhou and others about this matter, but he had not discussed it in detail with Captain Fang and his group of four.
"Yes." Bai Song nodded affirmatively, "I don't have much money right now. If I give him too much, I'm afraid that Ma Zhiyuan will definitely find Tianhua City to return the money to me. I'll feel better if I give him 10,000."
Li Han nodded, thinking that Bai Song was a man of affection and righteousness, so he agreed to get the money for Bai Song when he went to the post office tomorrow morning. Bai Song would also make a remittance at the post office.
After the work was done, the local branch director wanted to treat everyone to a meal, and Captain Fang did not refuse. This time, the team was at a disadvantage. The team and Director Hao of Daye County had actually met several times, so it was reasonable to have this meal.
The food was all local specialties, very homely. The wine was the fine wine from Director Hao's own collection. Of course, Bai Song didn't know what was good and what was bad. In his opinion, this stuff would irritate the throat.
Everyone had to leave early tomorrow and had other things to do, so no one drank much. They returned to their residence early and had a good sleep.
The next morning, the eight people drove two cars and went to the post office. They checked Li's several remittances, but did not find any useful clues. Then Bai Song and Li Han took out the money, paid the handling fee, and remitted it to Ma Zhiyuan. When Team Fang and Team Zhou saw it, Bai Song had already remitted the money and did not say anything.
It is already November 5th, and there are only 5 days left before salary is paid. Bai Song's current salary is still around 2,400 yuan. He plans to go back and borrow money from Wang Liang to make up for Li Han, and then slowly pay Wang Liang back over two or three months.
The two cars set off together and arrived at Tea City at noon. I had a light meal with the team leader, returned the car, went through the formalities, and set off on the road home. The flight ticket was at around 5pm, and because we had to change trains, we arrived in Tianhua City on the morning of November 6th.
Thinking about what happened in the past few days, Bai Song felt like he was dreaming. He had been on the road for the past few days.
Along the way, Bai Song was in a very good mood. They talked about the case in the car. Since they could not discuss the case on the plane, Bai Song and Li Han talked about history and had a great time. Although he did not sleep well, he still felt very fulfilled.
Bai Song was very curious about how these accomplices of Tuo Dawang would be sentenced. Captain Zhou told him that they would basically be sentenced to more than fifteen years. First, they were also accomplices in this large-scale smuggling case. Although they did not know how much the smuggled goods were worth, as long as they participated, they would be charged according to the total amount. Who told you to participate? Second, they were involved in several other cases. Third, they violently resisted the law, obstructed public service, and attempted to attack the police, which could all be counted together.
There was once a case where a thief went in to steal something while his companion was keeping watch. Unexpectedly, the thief was caught by the police as soon as he came out. Later, it was determined that the painting the thief stole was an antique and priceless. The man who was keeping watch outside knew nothing and was sentenced to fifteen years in prison.
After returning to Tianhua City, Captain Ma and the captain's political commissar went to the airport to greet the seven people.
This time there were no reporters and no one took pictures. Captain Ma shook hands with everyone cordially, and everyone took a minibus back to the Criminal Police Team.
After returning to the team, Captain Ma asked everyone to rest first and hold a meeting in the afternoon, and then called Captain Fang and Captain Zhou to the office.
Bai Song slept soundly for the whole morning. When he got up, it was already lunch time. After eating some lunch in the cafeteria and returning to the dormitory, Sun Jie found Bai Song and told him to go to the Ma Detachment Office.
"Are you looking for me?" Bai Song said after knocking on the door and entering.
"Sit down." Captain Ma pointed to a chair and said, "How are you? Are you healed?"
"It's nothing serious," Bai Song turned his arm to indicate that everything was fine.
"Hmm," Ma thought for a moment, "Are you rich, kid?"
Bai Song was a little confused. What did this question mean? He could only answer honestly: "No, what's going on?"
"Oh, no money. Why would you go and remit money to that young man in southern Xinjiang Province if you have no money? Do you need to compensate him for this money?" said Captain Ma.
"Ah?" Bai Song explained, "They killed the horse to save me. I..."
"You, what do you mean by you?" Captain Ma said with a bad face, "Do you still have me as your captain? Do you still have the team? Let me ask you, those bad guys had so much money on them. You arrested them yourself. Can you take the money?"
"No, absolutely not." Bai Song shook his head quickly.
"Yes, you work for the public, you cannot take the money for catching the bad guys, but you end up killing a horse and you pay for the compensation out of your own pocket. Where have you put the organization? You are the one who has solved the organizational problems!" Captain Ma's voice was a little heavy.
"Captain Ma, I was wrong." Bai Song still felt a little wronged. Why was it wrong to pay for it himself? But he still admitted his mistake.
"What's wrong? You didn't do anything wrong. How can your expression show that you did anything wrong?" Captain Ma said, "I specifically told Captain Zhou and the others not to spread this matter, otherwise others would come after you to praise your integrity! You're a new police officer, you risked your life on a business trip, you almost fell off a cliff and died, and ended up killing a horse while performing your duties. You even paid for the matter yourself. Where can I and Political Commissar Yu put our faces? You are upright, but it shows that our group is ignorant. Besides, you solved this matter by yourself. Shouldn't others solve this kind of thing by themselves in the future?"
"Ah? No, no." Bai Song then realized that what he did was not right, and this kind of thing should indeed be discussed with everyone.
"Well, you're new here, so I won't say much about you. That Li Han isn't very smart either. He reads too much history every day. I'll have to hold a meeting to criticize him later." Captain Ma's face was still ashen.
"No, Captain Ma, this is my problem and has nothing to do with Master Li!" Bai Song was almost crying.
