"Captain Wang, please sit down." Captain Zhong took out the tea.
"Well, it's okay. No need to make tea. I'll leave after sitting for a while." Captain Wang looked at Captain Zhong's table, then looked at Captain Zhong: "Have all the people from Tianhua City left?"
"Well, they're all gone." Captain Zhong picked up the materials and gently threw them on the table. "The materials are here. They're okay."
"Oh?" Captain Wang has long been accustomed to Captain Zhong's temper. "If you can say it's okay, then it means it's pretty solid. So, do they have any clues?"
"There are some. They didn't write it in their materials, but it's already made it very clear. This printing and dyeing factory has illegal sources of raw materials, that's for sure. I guess we can trace it to a smuggling case." Captain Zhong thought for a while and said, "It's not a big deal. After they leave, we can work with the customs to handle it."
"What about the murder case?" Captain Wang was very curious: "They sent so many people over with such an unfounded clue. Did they not share any clues with us, fearing that we would steal their credit?"
"No way, there are only seven of them, and three of them are not working." Captain Zhong thought for a while and said, "This is what their deputy captain said. There is no need to lie to us."
"Well, OK," Captain Wang nodded. "We'll try to help wherever we can. Some time ago, I led a team to Tianhua City to catch the murderer, and Tianhua was quite considerate. And if it weren't for their Chief Bai's help, I would have been embarrassed."
"Captain Wang, you are very motivated at work. I told you last time that I would lead the team. Even if we don't catch the suspect, we won't lose face." Captain Zhong said, "I have already told their deputy captain, whose surname is... um... Guo, about the one you mentioned. I will help wherever I can."
"This is not a shameful thing. The case in Xiangjiang last year was solved by the cooperation of Tianhua City and Shandong Province. Even the bigwigs in the province were very concerned about it, and the ministry also attached great importance to it. This kind of thing happened near us and we didn't even know about it. How embarrassing is it? So I must go to the old murder case." Captain Wang said.
"Yeah, that's right." Captain Zhong understood what Captain Wang meant. This was not about stealing credit, but about letting the leaders know that the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Changhe City Public Security Bureau was combat-ready, that it took crime very seriously, and that it would not let go of murders from years ago. They would strive to solve murder cases and build their image.
There is no "if" in the world. Last time, Captain Wang brought the suspect back and it was on the news. To Captain Wang, it doesn't matter who gets the credit. What matters is that his future is secure.
"Oh, I mentioned this to you last time, but I didn't go into detail." Captain Wang said, "You may not know that the person in charge of the Xiangjiang case in Tianhua City and the person who helped me catch the murder fugitive in Tianhua City are the same person, the Bai Suo I mentioned to you. This young man is really amazing, and I'm not exaggerating. In the entire Xiangnan Public Security Bureau, I haven't found another person who is so young and so capable."
"Isn't this a bit too much? There are so many talented people in the hall." Captain Zhong suddenly thought of something: "Is the person you are talking about called Bai Song?"
"Yes." Captain Wang was puzzled for a moment: "Do you know him?"
"The person who is here and in charge of the case is this person." Captain Zhong gently picked up the pile of documents and asked, "You told me last time how old this person was when he came here?"
"He's about the same age as Xiao Ji from the Police Dog Training Center, maybe twenty-four or twenty-five." Captain Wang took the document from Captain Zhong, flipped through it for two or three minutes, and then asked, "Do you have any cases under your control now?"
"There is the Gong Sui case, and the case of water breach in Changbei District. Among the two people who blew up the dam, one has not been caught yet." Captain Zhong said.
"Let your team leader Li take over these." Team leader Wang thought for a moment and said, "We'll have a meeting later. You take three people, and then we'll select four or five good people from the lower branches. We'll do our best to investigate this case."
“Ah?” Captain Zhong’s jaw almost dropped in shock: “Just now their Captain Guo said that this is a flat ground pancake, how come we are also…”
"If you don't have a cake, you're a fool. But if you know there is one and don't try to find it, then that's our problem." Captain Wang said, "Since Bai Song is leading the team and is investigating so hard, there must be something we don't know. You go organize the people first and have a meeting later. From now on, we will fully support Tianhua City in handling the case. We must get involved in this matter!"
"I understand." Captain Zhong nodded immediately, picked up the pile of materials, and started copying.
…
In the evening, Bai Song and his five companions ordered a table of grilled fish by the Xiangjiang River and enjoyed the meal very much.
"I don't care what the leader says. We all abstain from alcohol. As for the rest, you can do whatever you want." Bai Song had given these instructions before he came.
"Why drink alcohol? It's so spicy. I should drink herbal tea." Wang Liang licked his tongue a few times and took another big sip of herbal tea.
"The food here is indeed a bit spicy." Liu Shuyuan was sweating. "Except for Ren Xu who can ignore everything for food, I feel that we are all lacking."
"Well, last time we came, there were six of us. I didn't expect to revisit the old place so soon." Sun Jie scooped a big spoonful of chopped pepper and egg into the rice.
"I hope we can solve the case successfully this time." Bai Song said, "I feel like the clues to many cases are gathered here."
"Why do you seem a little sad?" Wang Huadong felt a little sensitive: "This is not your style."
"We have too many things to investigate, but they can't put down their own work and investigate so many things for us. This matter is no longer something that can be resolved by personal relationships." Bai Song paused, "They have their own cases to deal with. Put yourself in their shoes. If someone from Xiangnan came to Tianhua City and told me that a case here decades ago might be a homicide, and the reason was just a casual remark by an old athlete (someone who has been to prison several times), I would at most help out, and I can't give too much."
"Don't worry," Wang Liang said incoherently, "You are a lucky person..."
"If you can't speak, just shut up. You're the one who's in big trouble!" Bai Song spat.
"I think..." Wang Liang hissed, "Isn't it good to be a big villain?"
…
"Don't think too much," Sun Jie patted Bai Song's shoulder, "We will act according to the plan, and there will be no problem."
"Don't worry, I won't lose heart. We've put all the hopeful things behind us, so we can't lose heart now." Bai Song raised his glass, "Come on, use water instead of wine. If this case is solved, I'll prepare a feast for you when we get back."
"Cheers." Everyone raised their glasses.
Everyone drank it all in one gulp. A breeze blew by, and around the Qingming Festival, the Xiangjiang River was filled with a joyful atmosphere under the reflection of the city lights not far away.
At this time, Bai Song's cell phone rang.
"Is this Director Bai? Yes, I'm from the Changhe Criminal Investigation Team. My last name is Zhong. Are you guys free now? If you are, come to our team and we can talk about the case together."
