Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"Please tell the truth sir!"

boom

Mo Xiaolan slapped his hand on the table. An old man who was nearly a hundred years old was startled and pressed his heart. The housekeepers and servants around him came over in a hurry. Mo Xiaolan stared at the man and Ke in front of him angrily. An old man with a good relationship with Mesi. According to the investigation results of Section 2, this old man should have participated in this kind of special gathering among rich people.

"Help me find a lawyer. This is an improper inquiry!"

Mo Xiaolan's expression turned even uglier for a moment, and the housekeeper walked over directly.

"Can I see your investigative clearance?"

Mo Xiaolan directly took out his mobile phone. It was the investigation permission issued by Gene, the chief of Section 13. The housekeeper was speechless for a while. The old man in front of him seemed to be very reluctant to continue the conversation.

"Listen carefully, if we find any evidence in the future, you will never get out of prison in your life."

boom

Mo Xiaolan quickly left the courtyard of this house and slammed the iron door. Standing beside him was holding a cigarette and saying helplessly with a smile.

"Next place."

Mo Xiaolan was so angry that she stamped her feet. She then turned around and kicked the door of this house several times, denting the door a little before being carried away by Jean's hands.

"You seem to be getting more and more irritable recently. Are you lacking in calcium? Do you want to eat some dried fish?"

Gene said as he took out a small dried fish snack from his pocket. Mo Xiaolan took it and opened the package, grabbed a large handful and put it in his mouth, chewing it.

"I'm so angry, I'm going to be furious. Those bastards, there are a few guys who know it, but they don't say anything."

Gene also knew that such aimless investigation would be ineffective.

Mo Xiaolan also knew that she was sitting in the alley with her hat on her buttocks. Gene took out two more bottles of wine from his pocket and handed one to Mo Xiaolan. Mo Xiaolan unscrewed it and drank it. A few mouthfuls.

"Where is the dried fish? I want to eat roasted tofu."

Gene smiled and nodded.

"I know there is a delicious restaurant near here. It's a good time to go there. Give me 10 minutes."

Saying that, Jean jumped onto the roof. Mo Xiaolan stretched his legs and arms comfortably. At this time, several members of Section 5 who were passing by saw Mo Xiaolan's epaulettes and hurried in.

"My lord, this is not good."

Mo Xiaolan shook his head.

"Go away, this girl is in a bad mood right now."

Several members of the department turned around helplessly and left in a hurry. After all, if Mo Xiaolan was photographed by passers-by, she would also be punished according to the internal punishment regulations of the department. She did not wear her uniform according to the regulations and even put her uniform hat on her head. Under the butt.

Mo Xiaolan scratched her head, still thinking about whether there was a breakthrough in this matter. She immediately grabbed the phone and dialed R's number.

"Let C come over. We don't have enough manpower here, and we have to let her do some things."

"Xiao Lazy, unfortunately, C has gone to the prison. A troublesome thing happened there, and we have to go there to deal with it. K has already told me, I'm really sorry, Xiao Lan, maybe we should deal with this matter earlier. you said."

Mo Xiaolan took a sip of wine and stood up angrily.

"You idiots are going to destroy Section 2 sooner or later."

R's laughter came from the other side, but the sound seemed a little helpless.

"Then if you're lazy, you study hard in the department, exercise, and pass the exam, I will give you this seat."

"I only have one brain, I'm too busy."

As she said this, Mo Xiaolan was about to hang up the phone. Suddenly she saw the surveillance on the street. For a moment, her whole body felt numb, as if an electric current rushed from the soles of her feet directly to her forehead, and she shivered.

"Show all the videos of Commerce's contact with children to the experts in human facial speech analysis. I need you to summon all the experts from the 2 departments immediately, and then start watching the videos, right away, and those who have been in contact with Commerce. The same goes for people.”

Mo Xiaolan said and became a little confused.

"What's the use of looking at these things?"

"It's hard to explain it to you based on your IQ. I'll just say one thing. For example, no matter how shy a guy is, if he sees someone he likes, whether he is a man or a woman, his eyes will be as if they were there. Just glance at it for a few times. If you understand, move quickly. No matter how hard you hide it in daily life, those perverts will definitely expose something unconsciously. I ask you to identify all their videos, whether they are surveillance Whether it’s personal or party videos, I want to watch all the videos I can find.”

There was silence on the other side of the phone for a while.

"This workload is a bit heavy, I'm lazy. It's difficult to complete in a short time, and it's also difficult to use as evidence, or..."

"If it's always like this, there's nothing you can do. You've been like this since a long time ago. You only like simple and rough work, but it's different now. Simple and rough work can't solve the problem. If you believe me, just Just do it.”

R seemed to be still hesitating. Even if he checked all the videos, even if he saw some clues from the videos, it would be difficult to convince the public if he couldn't grasp the key evidence. At this time, R looked at it quietly. Time was still beating on the phone interface of the light and shadow panel in front of him, and he didn't know how to answer Mo Xiaolan.

Nowadays, there are basically no experts related to human beings in the two disciplines of behavior, facial expressions, linguistics and psychology. This matter was proposed by Mo Xiaolan from the beginning. Although R agreed to Mo Xiaolan’s meeting We began to train this group of people, sent them to some social practice sites, and studied with some psychologists who were familiar with this aspect, but in fact the work has not started.

"I'm sorry, Xiaolan, but the personnel in this field are not mature yet in Section 2."

As R said, the phone on the other side had been hung up. R stood up helplessly. He was almost out of breath with so many things pressing on him. C and K were running outside basically every day, and he was R is doing all the work of handling these cases, as well as the arrangement of investigators for some new cases, as well as the training of personnel within the department, etc. every day.

This kind of work is completely different from what R had imagined in the past. Section 2 is still under construction, or it can only handle some of the more difficult things in the city, from some brutal murder cases to some social incidents.

The impact of this incident on the entire society will not be too small. The news about this incident is overwhelming at present, and the wife of the deceased is not reluctant to pull people to file a complaint. Even some people who have been favored by Commerce are also complaining. They organized themselves spontaneously, so now this matter can only be finalized, and it should be finalized as soon as possible so that society can calm down.

R's mind flashed to the Hydra case and the guy named Perestan who fell from the sky on the day of the trial. Everything seemed to be reincarnation. The same thing happened again, but this time he did not go to the Law Hall. stage of debate.

Because the factual evidence is quite clear. No matter what the reason was for the young man to enter Comers' house, climb up the window, break the glass and kill Comers after entering, the thing is that this young man killed Comers. Meditation, that's all. As for what Comers did to cause all of this to happen, it is irrelevant, because Comers is dead. A famous rich man in the city died tragically at home, and he was also the one he rescued. killed his brother.

"This is enough. There are only more than 30 hours left."

R glanced at it and it was already 5:23. The time limit for the case department to be announced is running out. No one cares about the cause or the process. The only thing that cares about is the result. All R has seen over the years since childhood. in this way.

R recalled at this time that his mother had died when he was still very young. He contracted a serious eye disease due to his injury and almost lost his sight. Those eyes that could only be squinted were at that time. Although he later underwent repair surgery and was able to open his eyes due to the sequelae of the surgery, the habit had long been formed and could not be changed.

Just squint your eyes to see the world. This is something R has always felt is a way to make yourself more relaxed, because when you squint your eyes, you won't be able to see anything very clearly. This hazy feeling is the most reassuring to R.

All that needs to be done next is to deliver a result that satisfies the people, and nothing else matters.

"That idiot, bastard, waste!"

Mo Xiaolan blushed and had already drank two cans of wine. She didn't want to continue searching because the result would probably be the same and no one would tell Mo Xiaolan any useful information.

Gene just waited silently, always smiling. Now Mo Xiaolan was very angry.

"A complete system is always much more important than many things. Why don't people understand it?"

"Maybe everyone is too busy."

As Jean said, Mo Xiaolan laughed and then shook his head.

"I've had enough of Gene over the years!"

Mo Xiaolan said, grabbing the wine bottle in her hand tightly. She couldn't bear it anymore. In Mo Xiaolan's eyes, except for the 5 subjects in the current business affairs department, the other departments were just a puddle of mud.

Many things should obviously be more accurate and perfect this morning. It is obvious that they can be done, but they are still standing still or even regressing. The reason why this city can have such a stable social environment is because Alpha started from a very early stage. Until now, it has not changed its original intention. It is still fighting crime and maintaining social security efficiently as always.

Obviously Alpha has helped everyone create such a good environment, but everyone seems to be a different person now. Mo Xiaolan is a little tired. If it weren't for dealing with these difficult cases, Mo Xiaolan wouldn't want to be here at all. Running around in the city every day is very tiring.

Gene smiled and handed over a handkerchief, and Mo Xiaolan wiped away his tears. He felt very bad. Regarding this matter, the lack of evidence was not what made Mo Xiaolan so bad, but the entire system. Mo Xiaolan felt a little desperate.

Everyone is going their own way, without any integrity at all. This is the biggest problem. Like tonight's incident, the whole process of the incident only lasted 5 minutes, but 5 minutes is enough to handle a lot of things, even though there was K on site. He was commanding and dispatching, but he chose to do nothing. There were actually many people from Section 5 around the incident site. They should have seen it, and even saw the young man, but the people from Section 5 Go in after it happens.

It was too late, and after Section 5 entered, they directly told the victim’s wife what her husband had done without even conducting an investigation. This was the trigger. This matter would not have been so serious originally. But K was obviously at the scene, and there were also some team leaders and directors at the scene, but everyone naively thought that they could find evidence, so when Comers' wife became hysterical and arrogant, they directly told this person why they were gathered here. woman.

R obviously thought of this, but he still didn't stop anything. He didn't even say anything to the people in Section 5 after entering. The deployment of grassroots staff in the Operations Section and the collaboration between various sections were almost zero.

Although there have been occasional joint exercises of various disciplines in recent years, they were just a casual matter. Every joint exercise, Mo Xiaolan was very serious, but her colleagues told Mo Xiaolan that she didn't need to be so serious.

"Whatever you have to do, do it well. At least you have to be decent. This is what my dad used to say to me most often."

Gene nodded, looked at Mo Xiaolan who was a little sad, and put his arm around Mo Xiaolan's shoulder.

"Even if there is any resentment, dissatisfaction and unwillingness in the heart, even now everyone is still half-baked, so why don't we just do what we should do?"

Mo Xiaolan drank a big gulp of wine, stood up and looked at Gene.

"You bastard, you are the one who should talk to those guys the most, but you just ignore them."

Gene pushed away the finger pointed at by Mo Xiaolan, turned around with a smile, and squatted on the ground. Mo Xiaolan threw a pile of garbage into the garbage disposal, and climbed onto Gene's back.

"Now our only hope is to find someone who knows. I need to know where all these people who are close to Commerce hang out."

Giving up due to the pressure of public opinion is something that Mo Xiaolan will never allow. No matter how strong the pressure of public opinion is, if he wavers in what he wants to do, he will be far away from the person who once devoted himself to the work of the business department with enthusiasm. You will only get further and further away.

Jean moved with Mo Xiaolan, and Mo Xiaolan also knew that the reason why she did this in these years was because of Alpha, her best friend, who was running around every day without stopping for a moment. He is getting more and more lonely, everyone is starting to fall behind, and only Alpha is still moving forward. Mo Xiaolan just hopes to help his friends and solve some of the backlogged cases in Section 5, so that Alpha can relax a little.

The last ray of light from the artificial sun disappeared. Outside the lobby of the 53 Public Security Management Office, reporters were still waiting anxiously. A helicopter flew over in the distance. After the helicopter landed slowly, The reporters hurriedly gathered around. On the bright white metal surface of the lift, you could see a large golden lettering with the name "5 Division".

Alpha opened the door from the cockpit, and reporters gathered around him. A large number of Section 5 personnel hurriedly came over to form a human wall and began to block the reporters out. Alpha lit a cigarette and walked to the reporters.

"Chief Alpha, has there been any result about this matter?"

Alpha didn't nod or shake his head, but said in a loud voice.

"Please make wild guesses before the 5th Section announces the results of the investigation. As for those unrealistic reports, once the results are available, the 5th Section will investigate from individuals to companies. Those who publish extreme and untrue remarks will be prosecuted for defamation." conviction!"

For a while, the reporters' high emotions disappeared, and some reporters had embarrassed looks on their faces. Some reporters had already taken out their mobile phones to send messages to the editorial department, asking the editorial department to delete some gimmick headlines to attract traffic.

"Depending on the seriousness of the circumstances and the impact on society, those who create rumors on these matters will be sentenced to 3 to 10 years in prison! Our 5th Division will not wrongly accuse anyone, nor will we let any criminal go. It is still under investigation, please go back!"

Alpha said and walked over directly, and the reporters got out of the way. She looked angrily at a bunch of directors and Jill, including the local regional officer, who came over.

"Chief Alpha, please."

"This criminal case should have no direct connection with you members. Please go back!"

Alpha said, and the expressions of several members who wanted to be held accountable instantly relaxed. The members stopped saying anything and turned around and started walking away.

"Why did you explain it to the deceased's wife before you found any evidence?"

Alpha stood in the hall, clenching his fists angrily, and the team captains present behind him lowered their heads.

"say."

"Because the wife of the deceased kept asking about the reason at that time, and Mr. K also said before that he wanted our full cooperation."

Alpha blew out a puff of smoke.

"What is Article 197 of the Internal Regulations of the 5th Public Security Management Section?"

"It is forbidden to disclose the case situation to anyone when the factual evidence is unclear."

"Zhao He, Charles, Chu Yang, after the case is over, you three team captains will be relieved of their duties and handled in accordance with the internal punishment regulations of the business department. Now I ask you to lead people to cordon off all areas within 1 kilometer of the crime scene. No one is allowed to do so. Anyone entering."

Alpha said and walked quickly. These three people were all in close contact with Comers. Many people from the 5th department here in Baobui had received some small favors from Comers in the past.

When entering the small courtyard connected to the work building in Section 5, Alpha saw K leaning on a small bridge, and she walked over quickly.

"Sorry Alpha!"

Alpha shook his head.

"Now is not the time to talk about these things."

Suddenly, Alpha grabbed K by the collar and threw him directly into the stream. For a moment, everyone behind him lowered their heads.

"The same goes for Pete's case, and many other previous cases. Can't we spend a little more time investigating!"

Alpha said and walked quickly angrily, and began to make arrangements. Mo Xiaolan had already told Alpha the direction of the investigation, and Alpha began to make arrangements. He asked other districts of Section 5 to remove the criminal team members and start to make arrangements. The investigation of the whereabouts of Comers' close contacts requires details of the places they frequently visited over the past few years.

Jill swallowed. Such a workload was very large, and there were not many parts that could rely on monitoring.

"Did you hear that clearly?"

Gil hummed, turned around, and started to tidy up with several directors and others. Alpha walked into the underground interrogation office. At this time, Frye was sitting in the office with a tired look, still looking at things.

"how's it going?"

Frye shook his head.

"It's impossible to get this little girl to speak in a short time. There's not enough time."

"Thanks a lot."

Alpha said and bowed slightly, Frye smiled and shook his head.

"Why bother? It's you, Alpha. Have a good New Year."

Alpha smiled bitterly and shook his head, then called a clerk and asked him to bring some food and drink from the canteen. He had not eaten yet, and Frye looked the same.

Over the years, Alpha has provided financial assistance to Fry from time to time. Although the amount is not large, Alpha knows very well that what Fry has done is far more difficult than what she has done.

"If there is no evidence for this kind of thing, it would be extremely difficult to get this child to talk. There are also many cognitive problems that need to be solved. This child has lived alone for a long time, and his brother and father have been working all day. There is no free time at all and no patience to teach her anything. This is a very serious problem."

Alpha hummed.

Didi didi

There was a flash of orange light and Alpha answered the phone.

"What are you going to do about it?"

"How else to deal with it?"

Locke looked very embarrassed on the phone, and Alpha smiled helplessly.

"If no evidence is found in the remaining 30 hours or so, this matter will become a fatal case. Like the past Hydera case, subsequent investigations will be meaningless."

"You know that just like Alpha, it only takes one small point to leverage the entirety of our department, the malfeasance of the lower-level department members, and the mistakes of the on-site command officials. What should we do?"

Alpha smiled and shook his head.

"Or should I say, let it go Alpha!"

Frye quietly looked at Alpha's annoyed and troubled expression at this time. It was clear that Alpha was struggling in his heart. The matter couldn't be simpler. If some things from the crime scene were released, the case would basically be finalized. Once the case was finalized Finally, without finding conclusive evidence, it was impossible for the prosecution department to say why Comers was killed.

This case is already a dead case in the Law Hall, and once the verdict comes out, what awaits the young man is a long sentence, at least 30 years. After that, if decisive evidence is found and released, it will cause injustice. The false and wrong cases were ultimately pointed at the entire criminal justice department.

The image of this huge management organization in the city will collapse because of this case. Nowadays, the points of conflict are very intense. This is because the administrative department adopted a high-pressure strategy to rectify urban chaos from the beginning, and there are many voices of dissatisfaction. .

"I don't know what to do either!"

Alpha exhaled a puff of smoke. This was the first time Frye had seen Alpha so helpless. He knew the truth but was unable to tell it, and when he said it, he could not produce an object depicting the truth.

Fry knew why it turned out like this. K was negligent in this investigation. He did not understand the overall situation of the district. These things could have been obtained directly by consulting the information. In this district, Many family members of members of the executive branch work in companies owned by Commerce.

And Comers would even use some money from time to time to subsidize members of the administrative department working in the region. It didn't matter which clerk revealed such an important matter to Comers' wife. It had already happened. It has begun to ferment and spread, and it is too late to say anything now.

There were no remedial measures or opportunities in this matter, because those 5 minutes were the only opportunity, but everyone present missed it.

Now we can only pray that Mo Xiaolan and Gene, who are still investigating, can find the key evidence.

Frye has read some investigation data, which Jill showed to him after the little girl fell asleep today. The reason why Department 2 started the investigation was because of a girl who was sent to his hospital. At present, she has only recovered to the basic level. self-care ability.

Before the girl was sent here, she suffered extremely serious injuries. In the end, according to the description of the injured person, the girl went crazy. They acted out of self-defense. There were no traces on the girl. However, according to Frye According to my judgment, she must have been treated quite cruelly and suffered huge psychological trauma.

Although Section 2 only conducted an investigation, they finally found an insider. However, this insider passed away a few months ago. He was an old gardener. According to the testimony he provided, he did see his home. The owner would go to the adopted child's room late at night, often.

After knowing this, K will start to organize an investigation. Because there are too many shady secrets under this flashy city, K will start the investigation. The intention is good, hoping to put these people in human skin to death. The guy found it, but it backfired.

"Alpha, I think justice may have been absent, but... if there is no result."

"Of course I know. I have known about it since a long time ago, including the Hillman family. Once I catch any clues, I will arrest them immediately, no matter who they are or where they are. class.”

Fry looked at Alpha in surprise, then smiled and nodded.

"I didn't expect you still remember it!"

For a moment, Frye felt a trace of sadness in his heart, and Nabe's shadow appeared again. Alpha smiled and patted Frye on the shoulder.

"I remember that there was a drunk man that night, crying like a child. If you can't do it, just let me do it!"

Alpha raised his arms and clenched his fists.

Didi didi

An urgent call rang, and Alpha saw the number. It was Jill calling.

"We have found an insider. There is a girl who claims to have provided special services to someone before."

"Bring her here immediately."
