Sitting in the interrogation room, Dai Xiaoman tried hard to remember, under the orange light, her eyes became erratic.

"My younger brother has very hard hair. No matter how he combs it, the front hair is always sticking up. There is a knob on his head, which is near the top of his head."

"What are the characteristics of the face shape?"

"He has a slender face, fair skin, eyes... a bit like my eyes, people always say we look alike, on the corner of his right eye, there is a scar left when he was a child, his lips are very thin , thinner than mine..."

While Dai Xiaoman was thinking about it, Song Wen was drawing down, his fingers moved, the paintbrush rubbed against the white paper, making a rustling sound, he made a rough outline, and then began to process the details.

Lu Siyu sat quietly by the side, resting his chin on his left hand, turning the pen in his right hand, looking down at Song Wen's painting.In just ten minutes, the outline of a character was quickly drawn.

Dai Xiaoman is a beauty, her younger brother has the same father and the same mother as her, the two are related by blood, there must be some similarities, but even if they are similar siblings, there must be many differences.

Because Dai Xiaoman's impression of his younger brother may still be two years ago, Song Wen noticed some changes when he was painting.

Adolescents grow up very fast, and the child's face will be tougher, his Adam's apple will be prominent, and his masculine features will be more obvious.But because he stays in the subway all the year round and doesn't get sunlight, he is actually lower than ordinary children of the same age and has a lot of developmental delay. He runs and jumps in the subway every day. He should be thin and muscular. will affect his appearance.

While drawing, Song Wen asked Dai Xiaoman some questions.

After the facial features and hair are refined, it is time to draw the eyes. The position and size of the pupils of each person are different, and the eyes are completely different.

The murderer is vicious, the child is pure and clear, the old man is tired from the vicissitudes of life, and the eyes are painted like the finishing touch. This is also the most characteristic facial feature of the human face.

Song Wen looked at Lu Siyu sideways. He liked Lu Siyu's eyes. They were beautiful eyes with long eyelashes. They looked indifferent and fragile on the surface, as if they contained something on their minds. It can be seen that there is deepness and perseverance in it like an abyss, like a bottomless whirlpool.

So what kind of eyes should this child who has been kept in the subway since childhood have?

Song Wen hesitated for a moment before starting to write. He was thinking of the driver who hit and killed Xu Changying. His eyes were cruel, and he looked at Dai Xiaoman's eyes, which were sly and revealing. soft eyes...

Song Wen began to draw slowly, the position of the eyeballs slightly moved up, the pupils were pitch black...

That boy should have seen too many things, there is a little bit of innocence in those eyes, more cruelty, unwillingness, ambition, and the enlightenment of evil, his eyes are far more complicated than those of children of the same age A lot, there is a kind of hostility contained between his eyebrows and eyes, coupled with his young facial features, it makes people feel cold in the bottom of his heart.

After Song Wen finished drawing the head portrait, he showed it to Dai Xiaoman and asked her, "Does it look like it?"

Dai Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Like, very similar..."

"Is there anything else that needs to be adjusted?"

"No more." Dai Xiaoman shook his head: "Especially the eyes...too similar."

After she finished speaking, she covered her face, Dai Xiaoman felt that this feeling was amazing, as if her brother was right in front of her eyes, her eye sockets became moist.

Anti-pickup belongs to the security brigade, and the entire department is located in a building next to the city bureau.

Song Wen took Lu Siyu to Team Zhao, who was in charge of counter-picking, and explained the whole situation.

Captain Zhao took the picture over and looked at it, and said, "Captain Song's drawing is really vivid, isn't it Line [-]? I have an impression of this kid."

After finishing speaking, Captain Zhao handed the head portrait to the police officer in charge below and said, "It looks like it should be a loach. You can pull out the relevant video data of the loach and show it to Team Song."

Song Wen frowned slightly: "It sounds like there are a lot of children active near Line [-]?"

Team Zhao nodded: "It's not just Line [-]. There are many children along the entire subway line. Sometimes, it's hard to distinguish them by line, because the subway is scattered in all directions, and children will run around."

Those thieves and thieves naturally like dark and crowded spaces, and the subway is a paradise for thieves.

"We have dealt with these little thieves for many years, and we know better than you. These children who steal in the subway seem to be idle, but they are actually organized. They have their own means of connection, meeting places, and handover methods. And we have always suspected that they have Inside, every time we want to crack down, or gather the police force, or have leaders inspect, those children will disappear and no one will be found.”

Song Wen nodded, not to mention anything else, just the news revealed by Dai Xiaoman will make them prepare, he continued to ask: "Have you ever caught those children?"

Team Zhao pointed to the office: "Team Song, look, we are basically these ten people. We can only fill this small office with the anti-fraud team, but we have to be responsible for so many bus and subway lines in Nancheng and various Gathering point, I just finished the firework show. We have so many people doing things every year, and we always catch dozens of cases, but if we want to solve this problem, or catch some thief..." Speaking of here , he shook his head.

As the leader of the anti pickpocketing team, he doesn't have the confidence.Song Wen understood Team Zhao's helplessness. It felt like he couldn't finish playing this part.

"Two catastrophes and one robbery" has been paid more attention to. There are more information left, and the possibility of being caught is also greater. This pickpocket is really just a matter of seconds, without clues, and it is extremely difficult to catch.Most people who have been stolen can only consider themselves unlucky.

They are criminal police who must solve murder cases, and burglary and robbery also require a certain rate of detection. Only this pickpocket, no matter how much manpower is invested, always gets little.

Anti-pickup is also a cold department. Not to mention the wind and the sun, it is even more difficult to arrest people. The promotion is much slower than other departments. It is a well-known drudgery in the city bureau.

Captain Zhao continued: "Actually, we hope that there will be fewer and fewer thieves in the city, and we will all be unemployed. Thanks to Boss Ma, electronic payments are now used in the city. People carry less cash on them, and there are fewer pickpockets." Too many, many old thieves have already washed their hands. Only those children are still stealing. They don’t care much about cash. When they encounter mobile phones, watches, and jewelry, they will do it. Sometimes, when you listen to music, your hands Putting it in the pocket, in a blink of an eye, the mobile phone in the pocket disappeared..."

Lu Siyu was listening to their conversation, and suddenly remembered that Boss Cao said that he had changed his business. It sounds like this part of the business is now under the command of Yu Niangniang.Maybe the mobile phone they asked for back on Hongfang Street last time was also stolen by such a child.

Song Wen and Lu Siyu looked at each other. If what Dai Xiaoman said before was true, then these children who stole in the subway were probably just practicing their skills, courage and psychological quality.

When they grow up and can stand on their own, they will steal more than that.They may steal trade secrets, jewelry, antiques and other valuables.

"Regarding anti-picking evidence, sentencing is very difficult, especially for teenage children. Those children basically break up after being beaten, run away after being chased, locked up when caught, and continue after being released. We have tried to block them several times, but with little success. Fortunately, now that we have electronic eyes, citizens often provide us with information after they lose something, and we then call for surveillance. We are familiar with the usual habitual offenders. "

Song Wen asked, "What's the situation with the habitual thieves near Line [-]?"

Team Zhao introduced: "There are six or seven children in this group, most of them are under the age, and they are all boys." He paused, "There are also children begging along those subway lines, but begging is not under our control, it is our responsibility." According to the management of the law enforcement team of the Land Security Office, as far as we know, there is also a connection between those thieves and beggars. We have estimated that a child who can pretend to be disabled can make more money by begging."

Song Wen asked curiously, "How much money will you make?"

Team Zhao sighed and said, "A month's income may exceed [-], which is more than our police officers. These children are working in a gang, and they have connections behind them. All the money and mobile phones are handed in. It sounds like It’s like the urban beggar gang in the past.”

Song Wen hummed, this is consistent with what Dai Xiaoman said, these children on Line [-] may be living in a rabbit hole.

At this time, the anti-pickup police officer took out several documents, Song Wenbi looked at them, and quickly confirmed that they were very similar to the ones he drew. He pointed to the somewhat blurred images and said, "It should be this person."

Team Zhao nodded and said, "It's good to be able to confirm that it's the person you're looking for. If you want to catch him, our anti-pickup team can send a few people to cooperate with you, but there's no guarantee if you can catch him..."

Song Wen thought for a while and said, "Please send us a copy of the information and images you have about Line [-] and other children."

Half an hour later, the meeting between Song Wen and Team Zhao was over, and they made an appointment to arrest them together at night, and then they returned to the task force with a large pile of materials, and introduced the situation to several members. .

Xu Youyou was a little puzzled looking at the information they brought over: "Aren't we investigating the 519 case? Why do we have to deal with anti-pickup..."

Song Wen asked Lu Siyu to send those materials: "The cooperation with Fanpao is only the first step. Looking at the situation, we may have to cooperate with the Anti-Trafficking Office."

The anti-pickling team numbered each person according to their appearance and characteristics, from squid, crab, dried shrimp to small yellow croaker... Each boy has a different nickname.

Du Yong took it over and looked at it carefully: "This doesn't look like a nickname for a gang of young pickpockets in a subway station, but it looks like a seafood street."

After hearing this, Ye Zheng stopped typing, turned her head and said, "I'm hungry after what you said. Do you want to eat seafood barbecue tonight?"

Xu Youyou flipped through the information and said, "For seafood hot pot, count me in. I won't go for barbecue."

There is no one who doesn't like hot pot. Song Wen wanted to join in the fun, but he looked at Lu Siyu, and found that Lu Siyu looked down with a serious face, completely unmoved, so he said leisurely: "You guys If you want to go, remember to go back and take a shower before coming back, don’t smell the smell of hot pot from a long distance, how can you arrest people?”

Ye Zheng asked: "What time is the action at night?"

Song Wendao: "There are too many people in the usual peak hours, so it's hard to start. The anti-pickers set the time at 10:30 in the evening."

Xu Youyou looked at the other people in the room and asked, "Then... are we the only ones doing it? Do we need to transfer other people?"

Song Wen has also considered this issue before. Although he can transfer people from other teams, he is afraid that too many people will make the chaos worse, and it will be easy to expose the wind. He explained: "Now there are cases in other teams. Let's go to explore the road tonight, and I asked Ye Zheng for a monitoring authority for the entire subway line."

After an afternoon, they made all kinds of preparations and made a plan. In the evening, after dinner, several of them went home to rest for a while, and made an appointment near Metro Line 10 at 30:[-] in the evening. A collection of stations.

Ye Zheng drove a car and was in charge of monitoring the perimeter. Before the action, he prepared everyone's equipment. The walkie-talkie was connected to the outside line for talking with the anti-pickpocketing team, and also connected to an inside line for their department staff.In order to facilitate contact and viewing, each person is also equipped with a positioning device.

For tonight's action, several people were dressed in very ordinary and light clothes.

Xu Youyou dressed a lot like a lady, with a little makeup on, like a female white-collar worker after work.Du Yong has a more muscular figure, with a sports belt on his wrist, like a fitness instructor after class.

Lu Siyu wore a white T-shirt under his jacket, casual trousers, and glasses. He looked like a well-mannered college student.

Song Wen wore a one-shoulder backpack in his usual denim style.

Several people put their headsets on, hid their devices, and got off into the subway one after another.Since it is uncertain which car the target person will be in, a round of investigation must be conducted first.

There is one car every 4 minutes on Line [-]. Du Yong and Fanba got on one first, Xu Youyou also got on one, and then Lu Siyu and Song Wen got on the last one.

The arrest operation didn't start smoothly, and the news of anti-pickups kept coming through the communication.

"Report, there are no targets on this vehicle."

"I just saw the target person in Xishupo, and then he seemed to get off the car!"

"Which bus is he on now?"

"I didn't find it here."

"Has this kid already found us?"

Under the shaking of the subway, Song Wen walked from the compartment to the rear of the train. Although it was past ten o'clock in the evening, there were still many people on the train.

Captain Zhao's voice came from the earphones, "Captain Song, it's not like we don't cooperate with you in your work. You've also seen that the little bastard slips very fast and is still very alert."

Song Wen couldn't say anything, so he was silent for a moment and said, "Thanks for your hard work."

He and Lu Siyu quickly parted ways and scanned the car, and found one or two suspected children, but it was obviously not a loach.

Ye Zheng's voice came from their inner line, "I shouldn't have counted on this team who turned back."

Du Yong smiled and said: "It's not that you don't know, but there is already an old-age care department over there. It's either retired from other departments, or some thousand-year-old fritters. When there is an order, I will catch a few habitual thieves. On weekdays, Very idle."

Song Wen frowned and said: "Don't say that, it's not easy to pick up the team. And many people go in with enthusiasm, but they are just grinded by reality. Let you chase the thief every day and run 800 meters every day , would you like to have no holidays?"

Du Yong hurriedly said: "Song team, I was wrong. I was just joking. The one who picks up is also a good policeman who serves the people." At the end, he added, "Don't send me there."

When he was at a loss, Xu Youyou's crisp voice came from the inside line, "Team Song, Dai Xiaowen and I may be in the same car. I have sent you a photo, please confirm."

The cell phones of all the people in the group clicked, and they received a photo from Xu Youyou. It could be seen that the photo was taken secretly from a long distance away, and it was a bit blurry.

The picture shows a teenage boy, obviously no adults around him, wearing a slightly ill-fitting dark green coat, looking down at his phone in the subway.

Song Wen took a look, the boy's skin was very fair, his eyebrows and eyes looked a bit like Dai Xiaoman, he quickly confirmed: "It's him, don't startle the snake, Xu Youyou, try to approach him in the car first."

Xu Youyou held the armrest with her hand, looked up at the boy in the carriage, and didn't dare to make too obvious movements. She held the earphone with one hand, pretended to be listening to a song, and lowered her voice and said in a low voice: "I'm talking to him slowly. Get close, it's half a carriage away from him."

Xu Youyou walked forward slowly, trying not to attract others' attention. At this time, the speed of the car gradually slowed down, and the boy moved first.

"Wait...he seems to be getting out of the car!"

Before Xu Youyou made an arrest, the boy seemed to have sensed something, and suddenly got out of the crowd, and got out of the car with the crowd.

"Get off the bus, it's East Road Station! I also got off the bus."

"Everyone, get off at the East Road Station." Song Wen's bus was a stop behind, and they got off at the East Road Station. He watched from a distance, and Lu Siyu also got off a few carriages away. He nods.

This subway station is the largest subway station in Nancheng, and it is a transfer station for Lines [-], [-], and [-]. The terrain is very complicated, and there are more than [-] exits in total.There are more than [-] people in traffic every day, and the endless stream of people here meets and leaves.There are so many exits, and they are divided into upper and lower floors. If you don't pay attention, you will go wrong.

According to the information they have obtained before, the main activity route of Loach is the subway line [-], but the accessibility of the subway cannot be ignored. These children stay here day after day, year after year, and regard this place as their home. I'm afraid I have figured out all the nearby transfer stations.

"I don't know if he was discovered. He seems to be avoiding me." Xu Youyou said hurriedly while trying to follow the child.

Ye Zheng also locked on to Dai Xiaowen on the surveillance: "He looks like he is about to leave the station, or he is about to change trains. The last train on Line 8 will be in [-] minutes."

These few people alone couldn't stop all the exits. Song Wen sent a letter to the anti pickpocketing team, "Captain Zhao, we found another suspect here, get off at the East Road Station."

Team Zhao's voice came: "Okay, there are people over there who will help you block the exit nearby, so that he will never be able to get out of the subway!"

"Captain Song, there were too many people just now, I lost track of you!" A bad news suddenly came from Xu Youyou's side.

"I can still see from the monitoring here that the loach is now heading for Exit No. [-]!" Ye Zheng's voice came.

Just as Song Wen wanted to inform the anti-pickup police officers at Exit No. [-], Ye Zheng said, "Oh...he walked towards Exit No. [-], but he didn't go out. He talked to a person over there, and put something I gave it to the other party, and now I am walking towards the No. [-] gate. Then... wait for me to find it." Then there was a sound of typing on the keyboard, obviously Ye Zheng was switching the camera signal, looking for the target, "Damn, This little bastard is too cunning, and his anti-reconnaissance awareness is too strong."

Children were originally short in stature, and sometimes they lost their tracks when they swayed to cover them.

It seemed that it was the handover time they had agreed upon before, and Song Wen said as he walked through the crowd to the express line No. [-]: "They are familiar with the terrain of the subway, Ye Zheng, keep an eye on his movements."

Ye Zheng's eyes kept searching the various screens, and finally found the dark green figure again.The skinny child kept shuttling through the crowd like a loach, "I found it! He's going to transfer, and he's almost at Line [-] now."

Song Wen didn't dare to count on picking them up again, and asked again: "Has Xu Youyou kept up?"

"It's coming soon... I'm going to..."

"Fuck!" Xu Youyou couldn't help but cursed in the communicator, "I went around, but I'm still on Line [-]!"

Xu Youyou followed the transfer arrow from Line [-] and ran around. When she looked up, it was still the No. [-] subway exit. She remembered that she always went up and along the transfer direction all the way, so she went around for no reason. Still in place.

"Yeah, Xu Youyou, I can see your location on the surveillance, you've been spinning around on Line [-]." Ye Zheng said.

Xu Youyou was out of breath from running just now, and accepted the reality with a dazed face, and finally understood the truth in it, and while looking for the way while stroking the wall, she lowered her voice and said, "Damn! I finally know why Those who fight against pickpocketing will never be able to catch these children, and the subway in Nancheng is like a maze!"

After hearing Xu Youyou's words, Song Wen laughed, "Could you be making an excuse for your Lu Chi? Ye Zheng will lead her the way."

Xu Youyou complained: "Why doesn't your subway station charge tickets? What a great urban survival adventure project. It can be made into a tourism adventure."

Ye Zheng frowned: "Where are you? I can't even find you on this location map..." After all, the location map is flat and has a large range, so I couldn't find Xu Youyou's location for a while.

Lu Siyu interjected: "It sounds like Xu Youyou may be near Exit 13 now."

Xu Youyou looked around and said: "That's right! I'm near Exit 13, Si Yu, you are a little genius in geography, you have a map in your head, I think you should be the kind of person who can go around in 5 minutes !"

Ye Zheng quickly found Xu Youyou's location: "Youyou go up the escalator in front of you, it's just a joke, this East Road Station is indeed very unreasonably built, and it is listed as two unsolved places in the south city along with the Xiqianmen Elevated Road, if you date If you choose this place, two people may not be able to see it if you walk around for half an hour. Alas, Xu Youyou, you went wrong again, right to the right, you will be there soon!"

Xu Youyou immediately began to adjust, followed Ye Zheng's instructions and then went around to the transfer point, non-stop along the way.When I arrived at Line [-], I saw the loach get on the last train of Line [-].

"That kid got on the last bus on Line [-]!" Xu Youyou panted anxiously, a little discouraged, "I'm just a little short..."

"I'm already in the car." Song Wen answered.

"I'm also in the car, at the rear of the car." Lu Siyu's cold and calm voice came from the channel.

When they reported their location just now, Lu Siyu never said where he was, and Song Wen thought that Lu Siyu would not be able to catch up.It is only now that I find out that the daughter-in-law is the most reliable.

Song Wen narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the somewhat empty carriage: "This is the last train, Si Yu be careful, maybe they will set a trap or ambush."
