Chapter 246 Qin Beihai
"The same old rules, let the police station check it out." Shi Tao said.
"As for the mother and daughter, all we can tell from their household registration is that they're a divorced family, with the mother bringing her daughter with her. I haven't found anything else. As for this family, I think we can talk to Director Chen from the neighborhood committee to find out more about their situation. It seems like the mother's scolding of her daughter is pretty normal."
"Then there's Room 201 in Building 30. It's indeed suspicious no matter how you look at it, so we need to focus on investigating it. Teacher Gu has already checked and sorted out the population registration list." Zhou Yi said, picking up the list. "I see there's only one person's name registered for this household, Yuan Shuai. I'm not sure if it's true, but we can verify it."
After the information was almost correct, Shi Tao said that that was enough for today. Everyone had given their all and exceeded the task, so they should go to the cafeteria to eat and then leave.
We will check the remaining 150 households slowly tomorrow, especially the tenants who have moved out.
"Zhou Yi, before Director Xie and Old Wu come back, do you think this case can be solved?" Shi Tao asked on the way to the cafeteria.
Zhou Yi shook his head. "Captain Shi, I can't guarantee anything about this. Take the Zhang Hui case, for example. If Xu Jiaguang hadn't put up missing person notices everywhere just to create drama and dispose of the remains, I really wouldn't have discovered this."
"But now, there's no trace of this case before now. I just can't understand it. How can a person who lives in this world have social connections, relatives, classmates, colleagues, friends, and simply disappear without anyone knowing?"
Shi Tao said, "You know what? You think the same thing as me. Even if they're childless and lonely, they still have neighbors and a neighborhood committee. Besides, after what happened with Zhang Hui, shouldn't the people in this neighborhood call the police?"
Zhou Yi sighed: "Well, we can only continue to investigate. Maybe when Elder Qin comes tomorrow, he can find some clues from the autopsy."
The next day, Zhou Yi arrived at the Municipal Bureau early.
Because he called Wu Yongcheng last night and reported the progress of the investigation into the second dismemberment case in Donghai Community.
Wu Yongcheng told him that Master Qin and his apprentice would arrive in Hongcheng at 7:30 tomorrow morning, and asked him to arrive early to receive them.
"Zhou Yi, Mr. Qin is a man of great influence in the field of forensic medicine in our province. You have to perform well." Wu Yongcheng reminded him.
So Zhou Yi waited in the duty room at the door early in the morning with great energy. When an unfamiliar black car with a provincial capital license plate stopped at the door, the young man driving the car just rolled down the window and hadn't said a word when Zhou Yi went to greet him.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Qin from the provincial department?" Zhou Yi asked, bending down.
The young man driving the car nodded, and then the back door opened, and a plainly dressed man in his sixties got out of the car.
Although the old man had a few strands of white hair on his temples, he was in good spirits and had an upright posture.
"I am Qin Beihai." The old man said with a smile.
Zhou Yi quickly stepped forward, bowed, and shook Qin Beihai's hand, saying repeatedly, "Mr. Qin, thank you for coming all this way. We're relieved to have you here."
Qin Beihai's hands were very strong, not at all like a man in his sixties.
"You are Zhou Yi, right?" Qin Beihai said with a smile.
Zhou Yi was flattered: "You still know me?"
"In the previous dismemberment case and this time's Long Zhiqiang series of cases, your Director Xie specifically mentioned and emphasized your outstanding performance in the provincial department meeting. I was very impressed." Qin Beihai spoke in a gentle, unhurried, and sonorous tone.
"I heard that you just graduated from the Provincial Police High School half a year ago? Were you promoted from the grassroots level to your Municipal Bureau as an exception?" Qin Beihai asked.
Zhou Yi nodded.
Qin Beihai nodded in appreciation: "You are very talented, and there will definitely be more opportunities to show your talents in the future. However, I want to give you a small suggestion."
Zhou Yi humbly expressed to Qin Beihai that he felt unworthy of the honor and that he still had a lot to learn.
Then Qin Beihai introduced the young man driving the car, who was his assistant and apprentice, named Shen Zhaoxing.
When Zhou Yi heard this, he could say that he had heard of this great name for a long time, because this person was also a capable person in his previous life.
After Shen Zhaoxing parked the car, Zhou Yi took the two of them to the forensic room.
When he arrived in the morning, he went to the forensic room to take a look. Song Yiming was there. He was not sure whether he had not left yet or had arrived earlier than him.
Zhou Yi asked casually and found out that Qin Beihai did not come from the provincial capital, but from the neighboring Wuguang City. As for the specific reason, he did not ask much, thinking that it must be something important.
After a brief chat, Qin Beihai said to Zhou Yi, "Director Xie told me privately that you are a good candidate, but I have a small suggestion that I don't know if you would like to hear."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi immediately replied with a serious expression, "Master Qin, please tell me what you have to say. I am all ears."
"If you have the energy, you can continue your studies. While the Provincial Police High School is excellent, if you want to go further, your lack of academic qualifications may become a hindrance. While academic qualifications are a prerequisite, learning and keeping up with the times are more important. Talent is a good thing, but only by combining it with theory and practice can you stand at a higher level and see the world from afar."
Qin Beihai said earnestly, "What's the saying in The Analects of Confucius? If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools."
Qin Beihai's few words moved Zhou Yi deeply and shocked him.
Because to be honest, since his rebirth, he hasn't thought about it so complicatedly and profoundly.
He just wanted to use his advantages to save people, to prevent the murderers from escaping and to prevent the dead from dying in peace.
Moreover, he is actually a traditional and introverted person at heart. He does not have much ambition and does not want to keep climbing up.
Some people are born with this instinct and desire and make it a clear goal.
But Zhou Yi is not such a person. He even feels a little ashamed of using the advantage of his rebirth to climb up.
In fact, in essence, it is because his thinking is not that of a leader or manager, but that of an executor.
This might also be related to his past life, where he didn't have much opportunity or room to climb. As a lowly police officer with no background or education, that was the limit of what someone like him could achieve. Perhaps if it weren't for that incident, he still had 18 years until retirement and could have climbed higher, but there was always a limit to how high he could go.
So to some extent, Zhou Yi's original pattern restricted his thinking.
Therefore, he never thought about improving his academic qualifications. He felt that his move from the police station to the municipal bureau was a qualitative leap compared to his previous life.
But Qin Beihai was different. He was one of the earliest forensic pathologists after the founding of the People's Republic of China. He was the one who, in a country facing a period of ruin and technological backwardness, forged a path forward, overcoming obstacles step by step, braving the wind and waves.
Whether in terms of vision, status or pattern, they are among the highest group of people.
When Xie Guoqiang told him about Zhou Yi's outstanding contribution to the case, he was not surprised. However, when he learned that Zhou Yi had just graduated six months ago and had been working at the police station a month ago, he remembered the name.
He has seen too many talented people, some of whom are gifted children who have been outstanding since childhood, and some of whom have achieved success through hard work.
It's rare to see someone so young who suddenly becomes a big hit.
So this "little advice" he gave to Zhou Yi was also quite practical.
Zhou Yi solemnly expressed his gratitude to Qin Beihai, not just for the teachings of an elder.
Moreover, Qin Beihai's few words solved a problem that had been bothering him.
Because only by climbing up can you gain more initiative, make better use of the advantages of your rebirth, and save more people.
Now he can only fight alone, competing with wits and courage against the crimes that have not yet happened.
But if we can mobilize more resources and have more say in the future, we will be able to lead more people to fight.
There's no need to think about everything and figure out how to rationalize it. Just like Ni Jianrong, as the head of the Hongcheng Criminal Investigation Detachment, he doesn't need to explain himself to anyone except Director Xie. If Zhou Yi were in his position, for some cases, he could simply say, "According to a secret tip," and he'd mobilize police forces and nip the crime in the bud.
Just as Qin Beihai said, if you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools.
Qin Beihai's words made him suddenly enlightened.
At this time, the three of them arrived at the forensic room. Before Zhou Yi could even start introducing himself, Qin Beihai said with a smile, "Hey, Xiao Song, why are you so untidy? I haven't seen you so unkempt in years."
It was obvious that the two had known each other for a long time, so there was no need for Zhou Yi to introduce them again.
"Teacher Qin, I'm not very skilled and I need your help." Song Yiming said with a wry smile.
Zhou Yi originally wanted to ask them if they had breakfast. After all, they were over sixty years old and had to rush here from Wuguang before dawn, which must have been tiring.
But seeing that Qin Beihai had already started working and had begun to review the detailed autopsy report provided by Song Yiming, he did not dare to disturb him.
He greeted Shen Zhaoxing in a low voice.
Shen Zhaoxing pulled Zhou Yi outside the forensic room and said, "Teacher ate some bread on the way, so there's no need to bother preparing breakfast."
Zhou Yi nodded.
Shen Zhaoxing glanced around the room and said, "Teacher is just like that. He can't wait. You guys can go ahead and do your work. We'll hurry up and do the autopsy. Once we have some concrete progress, we'll get back to you."
"Thank you and Mr. Qin for your hard work. If you need anything, feel free to contact me. This is the number of my mobile phone." Zhou Yi handed the note he had prepared in advance to Shen Zhaoxing.
Shen Zhaoxing took the note and turned into the house.
Zhou Yi immediately left and returned to the office of the Third Brigade. Many clues that he had found yesterday needed to be followed up today.
At the same time, there are 150 households that have moved away and we need to find them one by one, which is a huge workload.
I hope that Mr. Qin can find the key clues and help them point out a direction.
Zhou Yi was thinking with his head down, and when he turned the corner, he almost bumped into someone.
I looked up and saw it was Xu Nian.
"Teacher Qin is here?"
Zhou Yi nodded.
Xu Nian quickly ran to the forensic room.
Soon, Qiao Jiali and the people from the second team arrived, and Shi Tao assigned them some tasks.
Gu Changhai was responsible for contacting the Qishan Road Police Station to follow up and verify the situation of several suspicious residents yesterday, as well as the handling of the boy who grew poppies.
Qiao Jiali and others continued to verify the information of the residents who had moved out through the command center and the grassroots police stations based on the list of information. They would go to the homes of those who had moved out to investigate.
He took Zhou Yi and He Bin to Donghai Community to check the most suspicious room, Room 201, Building 30.
The tasks were assigned and I was just about to leave when the phone on the desk rang.
Qiao Jiali picked up the phone, handed it to Zhou Yi, and said, "It's Luo He calling for you."
"Lu Zhengfeng?" Zhou Yi quickly took the microphone.
"Hello, I'm Zhou Yi."
"Officer Zhou, this is Lu Zhengfeng. I've retrieved the file on Tao Cong's case. Can I fax it to you now?"
"Okay, okay, thank you very much. I might also need to trouble you. There is another person who was also imprisoned in your Luohe. He was probably convicted of fraud. His name is Meng Qingtong."
Lu Zhengfeng was stunned: "Why did all the ex-convicts from our Luohe run to your Hongcheng?"
