Riverside police

March 24, the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, was called the Waking of Insects.

Captain Wang and Lao Qian looked through the almanac and said that today was a good day to get married, meet friends, go out and start a business, and have burials and sacrifices.

The conference table and chairs in the conference room have been moved and arranged into a small mourning hall. Xu Sanye's portrait hangs on the wall. Under the portrait, there are flowers and two large pots sent by Sister Zhu, Director of the Office of the Hong Kong Regulatory Bureau. Where did Ding Suo borrow the iron tree from?

The walls of the command and dispatch room next door, the four offices put together, and the long podium are filled with photos of Xu Sanye in front of him.

Some of them held red-tasseled guns and stood guard at the entrance of the village when they were children's league members. Some of them organized militia training with ammunition and paraphernalia strapped to them. Some were commended by the heads of provincial military regions. Some were sent to university in the capital with big red flowers and gongs and drums.

There was a man who rode a three-wheeler majestically when he was the deputy leader of the People's Insurance Team.

When he was the criminal investigation captain, he led Wu Renguang and other investigators to capture criminals.

The period when he was transferred to Bailonggang and served as the chief of Yanjiang Police Station has the most photos, which can be called an exhibition of reporter Wang's photography works.

The first one is a photo of him wearing a steel helmet, a magazine bag tied to his body, carrying a five- or six-pound gun on his shoulders, and returning from patrolling the shoreline with salted fish and small fish who are also fully armed.

The second picture shows 001 entering the Yangtze River to rescue a runaway ship for the first time after its overhaul and upgrade. He clutched the cable tightly and jumped, only to fall into the river.

The third picture is of organizing a fire drill.

The fourth picture shows scalpers participating in the public trial and sentencing meeting for buying and reselling ship tickets.

The fifth picture is about organizing forces to join forces with the port supervisor and fishery administration to go to Jiangyin waters to arrest the criminals suspected of robbery...

Looking at a photo of Xu Sanye in front of him, Peng Changyu, the new captain of the Shuangshui Branch and director of the Shuishang Branch, finally understood the well-intentioned intention of Political Commissar Wang to ask Luo Wenjiang, a newly transferred student who had just been assigned to the detachment, to come to the funeral of Xu Sanye.

The Water Branch is a new unit. The Water Branch needs a solid foundation and the Binjiang Marine Police needs a spirit. The photo in front of you can reflect the Binjiang Marine Police's extremely hard-working and fighting spirit!

In fact, he himself was shocked.

I didn't know much about Xu Sanye before. The main reason why he came to attend the funeral was that Xu Sanye had also been a member of the party committee of the branch for so many years. As the leader of the branch, he had to come.

Moreover, Yu Xiangqian, deputy chief of the provincial security department in charge of water security, Zhang Junyan from Changhang Public Security Bureau, Bureau Feng from the Port Supervision Bureau, Commissioner Tang from the Customs and Wei Zhi from the Municipal Bureau’s Criminal Investigation Detachment are all here. He, a member of the Binjiang Marine Police, It’s really unjustifiable that the coach doesn’t come.

"Director Peng, we set off on time at 7:30. It takes two hours to get to the estuary and three hours to get back to the water. We won't be able to eat until 12:30 at noon at the earliest. Porridge is prepared in the duty room downstairs. and snacks, do you want to go down and have some to fill your stomach first?"

"No, I'm not hungry."

"The wind and waves at the entrance to the sea are relatively strong. If you get seasick, I have seasickness medicine here."

"No, thank you."

Li Weiguo came yesterday afternoon and was responsible for receiving the leaders of the public security system together with Lao Zhang, Ding Suo and Xu Mingyuan.

Yu Xiucai and Zhang Junyan are not relatives and friends today, but half family members. They are responsible for receiving leaders such as Director Feng and Director Tang and Xu Sanye's classmates when he was in college.

They are said to be college classmates, but they are actually leaders, and most of them are military leaders. The highest-ranking one is deputy division commander.

Sister Wei and Xu Haoran and his wife thanked the relatives and friends who came to express their condolences and even attended the funeral in the mourning hall. Zhang Lan and Han Xiangning were responsible for receiving Xu Haoran's father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Han Yu and Liang Xiaoyu are preparing nervously on 001 and 002.

Xu Sanye was a noble son. Han Zhengxian and his wife received the bad news of Xu Sanye's death through the VHF radio the day before yesterday. They didn't even bother to load the goods, so they rushed to Bailong Port in a boat.

The 120-ton iron ship is docked outside 001 and will sail to the estuary together later.

Han Shuqun and Xiang Fan also came. Seeing that more and more people came to see Xu Sanye off, there was no room on the barge, so they simply walked through 001 and came to the in-laws' boat.

The four of them were standing on the bow of the ship with extremely heavy hearts, lamenting that good people do not live long. Xu Mingyuan climbed onto 001 and met Staff Liu and Director Huang of the Armed Forces Department who came to see Master off on his last journey, as well as Minister Lei of the Armed Forces Department of the Fourth Factory Township and others. After saying hello, he pulled Han Yu aside.

"Xianyu, Bureau Yang and Political Commissar Ding are here. Do you want to report to the bureau leaders for instructions?"

"No."

"That matter is neither big nor small. And there are so many leaders here today, so it would be inappropriate to report without asking for instructions."

Han Yu looked up at the barge and said expressionlessly: "How do you ask for instructions on this kind of thing? It's not good if Director Yang disagrees. Agreeing is against the principle. It's better not to ask for instructions and report, so as to save the leadership from embarrassment."

Xu Mingyuan was a little worried and said with a grimace: "But if this happens..."

"There's nothing to worry about. If the sky falls, I'll hold it up!"

"You are holding on, you think you are the master!"

"I am Master's successor. Go and receive the leader. It is none of your business here."

"you……"

"Elder brother, I am also the captain of the marine police squadron after all. Why can't I take responsibility for what I do!"

Han Yu drove Xu Mingyuan onto the barge, walked to the stern and said sincerely: "Minister Lei, Staff Officer Liu, and Director Huang, I'll leave it to you when we get to the estuary."

Before Minister Lei could speak, Staff Liu patted him on the arm and said, "Please, please, your master is our old friend."

"Xianyu, go ahead and leave it to us."

"Thanks."

Just as he was talking, Xu Haoran came down with the urn in his arms, and Xu Haoran's lover Li Xiaoqin supported Sister Wei and followed closely behind.

Xiaoyu hurriedly ran over to stabilize the boat and let them get on 002.

Xu Haoran's uncle and aunt, Xu Haoran's father-in-law and mother-in-law followed closely behind.

Bureau Feng, Chief Tang, several former comrades of Xu Sanye, Bureau Peng of the Shuangshui Branch, Bureau Yang and Political Commissar Ding of the Linghai Public Security Bureau, as well as the old director of the Linghai Public Security Bureau and now Vice Chairman of the CPPCC Li, etc. Accompanied by Xiucai and Zhang Junyan, they boarded Supervision 39 and Customs 008 respectively.

The fishery administration boat from Binjiang Fishery Administration Station also arrived.

The leader of the Bailonggang Passenger Terminal, the director of the Bailonggang Ship Lock Management Office, Boss Wu of the Bailonggang Shipyard, Stationmaster Jiang of the water gas station, Dean Chen and Wu Renguang of the Bailonggang Health Center, etc., were at Zhang Mingdong’s We were greeted and boarded the fishery boat.

Han Yu was the commander-in-chief of the formation sailing and the commander-in-chief of the water burial. He quickly climbed up to the second floor, opened the door and got into the cab, turned on the loudspeaker, and raised the intercom: "Dear leaders, relatives and friends, please pay attention, I am Xu Suo Disciple Han Yu, our fleet is about to set sail, please put on your life jackets, please put on your life jackets."

Director Yang was just wondering why he didn't see Xianyu. He only knew that Xianyu was on 001 when he heard the broadcast.

At this time, Political Commissar Ding picked up a life jacket and reminded: "Director Yang, you have to listen to Xianyu when you get on the boat. Put it on quickly."

"OK."

Director Yang put on his life vest and said puzzledly: "Why doesn't Haoran put Sanye's ashes in 001? 001 is Sanye's lifeblood. He must want to sit in 001."

Political Commissar Ding looked over and said thoughtfully: "Maybe there are other arrangements."

Ma Jintao also worked under Xu Sanye, but he had no chance to come to Bailong Port to see Xu Sanye off for the last time.

Luo Wenjiang, the only marine police officer from the Fourth Squadron besides Xianyu who attended the funeral, almost missed the boat because he needed to go to the toilet. He panicked and climbed onto 001 when he saw Liang Xiaoyu unmooring.

Han Yu leaned over and took a look, then picked up the intercom: "Xiaoyu Xiaoyu, find a life jacket for Luo Wenjiang."

"receive!"

As soon as Liang Xiaoyu finished speaking, Luo Wenjiang said hurriedly: "Thank you, I'm sorry to trouble you."

As the whistle sounded, Han Zhengxian drove his cargo ship slowly away from 001.

Captain Wang confirmed that the cables were untied, steered 001 away from the barge, and passed in front of the Han family's cargo ship to clear the way for the funeral fleet.

002 and the law enforcement boats from the port surveillance, customs, and fishery administration slowly sailed away one after another.

No one could be left on the barge, and not all those who came to express condolences could get on board. The guardrails on the first and second floors of the barge were full of people.

Suo Ding adjusted his police uniform and ordered: "All police officers are here, stand at attention and salute, and send Suo Xu off!"

Following his order, more than two dozen officers from the Linghai Public Security Bureau who came to express condolences raised their arms and saluted 002, where Xu Sanye's ashes were located.

Holding the urn in his arms, Xu Haoran took his wife onto the back deck of 002 and bowed to thank Ding Suo and others who were seeing him off on the pontoon.

The fleet sailed slowly through Bailong Port Terminal under the guidance of 001.

Bureau Peng, Bureau Yang and Political Commissar Ding suddenly heard the melodious sound of the whistle. They turned around and saw six people from the Donghai Branch of Changhang Public Security Bureau on the second floor port side of the Baishen and Bailiu passenger ships berthed at the passenger terminal. The policeman was standing at attention and saluting.

The captain and political commissar led the passenger ship staff from the passenger transport department, deck department and engine department to stand neatly on the side of the ship and pay attention.

Han Yu stood at attention on the side of the ship outside the 001 cab and returned the greeting.

Xu Mingyuan stood on the side of the ship supervising 39 and raised his hand in return.

Zhang Lan and Han Xiangning, wearing uniforms, stood on the deck of 002 and returned the greeting.

Although Xu Haoran was wearing a military uniform, he held his father's urn in his arms and bowed with his wife as he did before.

Sister Wei's in-laws were shocked and couldn't believe that so many people sent Xu Sanye off in this way.

Luo Wenjiang was also stunned, and subconsciously stood at attention like the young squadron leader and returned the greeting. However, thinking that he was a member of the unit who came to the funeral and was not a relative or disciple of Xu Sanye, he quickly lowered his arms.

Sister Wei could see clearly through the glass of cabin 002, and said with tears in her eyes: "Sanye, you see, the leaders and policemen of Baishen and Bailiu passenger ships are here to see you off..."

Although this ceremony was not organized by the unit, it was shocking and meaningful.

Director Feng was filled with emotion, Chief Tang nodded slightly, and Vice Chairman Li of the Linghai CPPCC was even moved to tears.

The fleet sailed past the ferry at Bainiu Ferry.

The ferry whistle blew, and the policemen from the Ferry Police Station of the No. 4 Police Station led the police officers to stand at attention and salute. The ferry staff lined up neatly to salute.

The fleet sailed through the ferry in Longyong Township, Linghai Enclave. The director and instructor of the Longyong Police Station led the police and police to see them off by the river.

The fleet sailed through Niupeng Port on Taoming Island, and the ferry at the port blew its whistle again.

Li Xiaoqin only knew that her father-in-law was a police station chief. It was not until she saw the photos on the barge yesterday and what she saw and heard along the way that she truly realized how respected her father-in-law was.

She was so moved that she burst into tears.

She was supposed to comfort her mother-in-law, but Sister Wei wanted to comfort her instead, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hugged each other and cried.

After passing Niupeng Port, there are several docks and ferries, but I am not familiar with the Yanjiang Police Station.

The farewell ceremony on the shore came to an end. Han Yu returned to the cab, took a few deep breaths, calmed down a little, turned on the tweeter amplifier again, and raised the intercom: "Dear leaders, relatives and friends, my master is worried. It affected the work of Brother Haoran and Sister-in-law Xiaoqin, so that Brother Haoran and Sister-in-law Xiaoqin were not with him before his death.

I had long been worried that this would happen, so I asked Master to record a speech while he was still able to speak. Brother Haoran, sister-in-law Xiaoqin, I will play it to you now. "

Xu Haoran did not expect that his father had left his last words, and fearing that he could not hear clearly, he got up again and got out of the cabin and climbed onto the back deck.

Li Xiaoqin reacted, quickly wiped away her tears and followed him out.

Director Yang had attended countless funerals, but this was the first time he attended a funeral like this. He held his breath and wondered what Xu Sanye would say to his son and daughter-in-law.

"Haoran, Xiaoqin, when you hear this recording, I am no longer here. Don't be sad, because birth, old age, illness and death are natural laws. Sooner or later, I will have such a day."

Sure enough, it's Xu Sanye's voice!

Bureau Feng and Chief Tang couldn't help but think of the first time they met Xu Sanye when the barge was commissioned, and Yu Xiucai and Zhang Junyan burst into tears.

"Xianyu and Ning Ningfei asked me to leave you a few words. But I've already said everything I should say to Haoran. Let's just say a few words to Xiaoqin about our family."

"Our family is an extremely ordinary family, but our family is closely connected with the people of the motherland, and our family is closely connected with the rise and fall of the country."

"Our family, like most families, has gone through a long journey from poverty to wealth, with many hardships and joys. Our ancestors suffered from famine and war, were displaced, and lived in a precarious situation. The only word left and right was poverty!"

"Going back ten generations, there were no high-ranking officials, and they were all ordinary people at the lowest level. However, our ancestors were ambitious and strong-willed. No matter how chaotic the environment was or how the society changed, they could keep themselves clean and behave themselves well."

"My father, your grandfather, at the critical juncture of the national crisis, chose to rather die in battle than to be a slave to the subjugation of the country. He marched bravely under the artillery fire of the Japanese invaders and risked his life in the fierce battle with every inch of land and blood. Killed and heroically wounded in the War of Liberation."

"My mother, your grandmother, risked her life to join the Women's Rescue Society at the critical juncture of the national crisis, sent intelligence to the New Fourth Army, and raised food for the guerrillas..."

"Forgetting history means betrayal! Especially families like ours, which have been blessed by the party, should know how to be grateful. Your children may not necessarily join the army in the future, nor may they work as a police officer like me, but your grandpa must Tell them about grandma..."
