The syringes are placed in rows on the iron plate, and there are precarious transparent droplets hanging on the cut surface of the needle point. Come enjoy the soothing sound of exhaling.

The boy stood by the bar, watching the syringes in the iron tray change from orderly to messy, he patiently rearranged them neatly, and tapped the plunger handles of the syringes with his fingers in turn, making them like hammers when a piano is played, Humming an unheard ballad:

[i] A crooked man who walked a crooked mile.

With a twisted sixpence in hand, up the twisted steps,

Buy a crooked cat that catches a crooked mouse.

They live together in a crooked hut. [/i]

At the beginning of March, the spring was cold, and a spring snow had just melted, and there was another cold wind.

The police station in Rongguangli, He'an District was not disturbed by the cold, and the front hall was overcrowded, squatting around students who were fighting and making trouble in a nearby middle school, and the policemen were so busy that they were sweating.

Nie Cheng's injuries in the hotel fire are almost healed, so he can't hide in the office, helping Deng Ting check and register the children's identity information one by one, and call their families.

Director Liu called Nie Cheng several times at the door of the office, but the louder and louder the voice failed to overcome the chaos in the hall, he had to rush through the corridor, stretched his arms and grabbed Nie Cheng's shoulder, and said in a low voice: " Urgent task."

Nie Cheng handed over the half-written information to the police next to him, and went into the office to put on his coat and get the car keys.Director Liu followed him into the office, closed the door, and added: "Call Deng Ting, and they are all equipped with guns."

The police usually don’t bring guns to the police, and all the guns in the police station are under unified management. Nie Cheng has only been equipped with a gun once in more than two years here, in response to a robbery.

Nie Cheng was taken aback, and hurriedly responded, pulling Deng Ting to get the gun, Director Liu went to light the ignition to find a car, and drove to their destination immediately after they got into the car.

"Just now I received a notification from the District Bureau that the bathing center in our jurisdiction has been reported. It is said that someone took drugs in the box. The crackdown has been severe recently, and the above is really playing tricks. Be alert." Director Liu said.

When they arrived at Shangli Bathing Center, the front office of the five-story Chinese-style European-style building and the special police car had just arrived.The three parked the car, exchanged simple greetings, loaded the guns, followed the special police into the bathing center, and went straight to the KTV box on the third floor.

Meeting an ordinary guest wearing a bathrobe on the stairs inevitably caused a few screams, the vanguard rushed up, followed by Director Liu and an old criminal policeman from the district bureau to appease.

The room 313 was singing happily. They didn't know that there were five special police officers outside the door. When the door was kicked open, they kept singing. They didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all.

There are nine men and women in the ten-square-meter box, all around the age of 20, some are wearing their own clothes, some are wearing bathrobes, and their hair is still wet.They had no weapons on them, so Nie Cheng put away his guns, found a bag of white powder in the crevice of the sofa near the karaoke table, and found a few undusted tinfoils in the trash can.

Nie Cheng put the things into the evidence bag, walked out of the box to make room for other colleagues to collect evidence, and handed the evidence bag to the operation leader sent by the district bureau.

Under the wall outside the box squatted a row of young people with their heads in their hands. Among them was a young man with dyed brown hair. He caught a glimpse of the white powder shaking during the handover process of the police. His face was flushed with heat, and he even forgot about the muzzle of the gun hanging above his head. He stood up abruptly and cursed "fuck".He was pushed down by the special police before he could stand up completely, but his burning indignation still caught Nie Cheng's attention.

This young man looks less than 20 years old and looks handsome. Because he is thinner than his peers, he has a high nose bridge; his complexion is very fair, mixed with a little unhealthy bluish white; the white T-shirt and jeans on his body are simple in style, but the brand logo shows his The value is high, and the watches hanging loosely on the wrist are more than [-] yuan.

The meticulous and serious sizing attracted his attention, and he yelled at Nie Cheng without fear: "You son of a bitch, what are you looking at!"

Nie Cheng wanted to test him a few words, but suddenly he heard a familiar voice: "Comrade SWAT, it's a misunderstanding, it's really a misunderstanding."

I saw the few people escorted out from room 314 next door, one of them had a shaved head, squinted a pair of small round eyes, and begged the special police with a flattering smile.

Nie Cheng ignored the aggressive gaze of the young man, strode over, whispered something in the special policeman's ear, and took the bald head to the tea room on the second floor.

"Why did your branch intervene in the case in our jurisdiction?" Nie Cheng asked with a smile after closing the door.

Liangzi touched her bald head, and her smile was two points more embarrassing than the flattering one just now, "I don't want to investigate the case. Thank you Team Nie for coming to rescue me. It almost became a flood to wash away the Dragon King Temple."

I haven't seen him for two years. The criminal police officer of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Haidong District Bureau and Nie Cheng's old subordinate has not changed much in appearance, and his attitude seems to be a little more slick.

"I'm not your captain anymore, call me Nie Cheng."

"Then Brother Cheng!"

"Brother Liang!"

"No, no, I can't afford it." Ryoko waved her hands quickly.In terms of age, he is indeed above Nie Cheng, but in terms of qualifications and ability, he is worse than Nie Cheng, and Nie Cheng has saved his life.In order to get over this, he got straight to the point and chatted about the case: "To tell you the truth, Captain Jiang has been worrying about that drug case for more than half a year, and it's so easy to hear something about it today. Which one is it on your side?" ah?"

"We received a report. I don't know about your case, but 313 did find drugs." Nie Cheng said.

"313? That group of children? That may not have anything to do with us. Our side is not complicated. We caught a drug dealer before, which is the middle link. The city said that we should find out this chain and try to get them out of their old den. But there is no clue after that. I will report it, and I may have to ask you to find out the situation in the next few days." Liangzi said.

"Okay, go get busy." Nie Cheng said.

Back on the third floor, the row squatting in the corner has been escorted into the car, and the district criminal investigation team will take over the rest, and Director Liu will take them back to the institute.

During lunch, Nie Cheng reported Liangzi's matter to Director Liu. In the afternoon, Li Mu, the criminal investigation team leader of the Divisional Bureau, called his extension and asked him if he was in a hurry and asked him to come to the Divisional Division now.

Nie Cheng was immersed in writing materials, put down the phone and just went in and out.

This time Li Mu didn't wait for him downstairs. He was wearing a police uniform and no one stopped him. He went straight to his office familiarly. No one answered when he knocked on the door. The intern in the office next door happened to meet him and said crisply: "Captain Li is in the interrogation room. Go straight and turn left. You can see it when you go down to the second floor."

Nie Cheng thanked him, and when he reached the corridor on the second and third floors, he met Li Mu who was hesitating up and down the stairs. He turned around and saw him, and said, "It's just in time! Let's go and smoke with me."

Smoking was banned in the corridors of the police station. Li Mu thought it was cold downstairs, so he was hesitant to go back to the office, so Nie Cheng came, and simply dragged him downstairs together, as if the two of them chatting would not be cold anymore.

"This time I called you here because of the bathing center in the morning. People in my team told me that you had a chat with that young master. Did you have any friendship with their family before?" Li Mu asked.

"Master? The young man?"

"Yes, that's him. His name is Han Le'an. You must have heard of his father, Han Qishan."

"Oh!" Nie Cheng understood.

Han Qishan is one of the richest people in the city. When he was young, he studied abroad in Europe. After returning to China, he started a wine business. He has his own winery both at home and abroad. Later, he also set foot in other fields. The bathing center they checked in the morning is his business.He often attends events, and keeps a low profile in matters other than business. In the eyes of outsiders, he can be regarded as an entrepreneur with a relatively positive image.

"Three years ago when I was in the criminal investigation team, I had contact with Han Qishan. The case was not against him, but he was just asked to assist in the investigation. This was the first time I met his son." Nie Cheng said.

"Has he done anything noteworthy?"

"Not really. It's just that he got agitated when he saw the bag of Hai Luo Yin. I thought he might be the organizer of the party and didn't know about it. I wanted to ask him a few words." Nie Cheng Report Liangzi's matter to Li Mu.

Li Mu nodded, "You guessed right, that kid said someone was plotting against him. If this incident involves the drug line that Haidong District is investigating, we still have to cooperate with them."

"Yes."

After finishing the cigarette, Li Mu didn't let Nie Cheng go, but took him upstairs.Since there were drugs in this incident, it was very likely that other cases were involved. Li Mu asked Nie Cheng to learn more about it, so that they could get more clues when they went to investigate.

Of course Nie Cheng had no objection, he followed behind Li Mu like an intern who had just entered the police station, and greeted Li Mu's subordinates in the corridor naturally.They walked to the door of the interrogation room, the door opened from the inside, and two police officers escorted Han Le'an out.Han Le'an twisted his shoulders impatiently, caught a glimpse of Nie Cheng who suddenly stopped struggling, and stared at him as he passed by.

Li Mu was tilting his head and explaining to him the situation of the other young people. Nie Cheng listened carefully. He approached the door and realized the burning gaze belatedly. He looked suspiciously at the back of Han Le'an who disappeared at the top of the stairs.

After returning to the police station that day, he searched for Han Qishan's information again.

Han Qishan’s family fell into poverty when he was young, and he worked as a construction worker. He passed the college entrance examination and was admitted to a university in the city to study as a postgraduate. Business turned domestically.During the search that day, there were many bottles of red wine with the same packaging crookedly placed in Han Le'an's box, which seemed to be brought from home by him.

His first wife was a French woman, and they had a son, Han Le'an, with Han Qishan, who died of illness at the age of five 13 years ago.Three years later, Han Qishan married his current wife. She was the daughter of a professor and had a son, ten years old, named Han Leyang.

Nie Cheng had a general understanding of Guo Qishan's basic situation, so he waited for the order from the district bureau first, and then waited for the news of Han Le'an's release the next day.There are a lot of people going in and out of the detention center every day. Originally, this was just an inconspicuous matter, but that morning, all the public security groups were screened by Han Le'an's incident.

Han Le'an's cronies got the news that he had come out, and they came to the camp early in the morning. One after another, BMWs and Mercedes-Benz stopped two rows, blocked the entrance of the detention center, and protested to the police with great fanfare. It is said that a certain leader of the prison was bluffed by this posture Shocked and angry, I almost had a stroke.

This is not over yet, after receiving the person, they did not drive back to the mansion, but went around to the gate of the Rongguangli Police Station.

Fifteen minutes before Han Le'an's team arrived, Nie Cheng, who was thinking about Shang Li's bathing case, hadn't waited for Li Mu to make arrangements, but waited for Liang Zi and Zhang Jieming to come.

As Liangzi had greeted before, they came to him to understand the situation.Since Shangli Bathing Center was in the area under Nie Cheng's charge, they didn't hesitate to look for the Haidong District Criminal Investigation Team, and went directly to their old colleague, the old captain.

"Master!" Zhang Jieming sneaked into Nie Cheng's office familiarly, and only after entering the door did he realize that he had left Brother Liang behind.Now the relationship between them is not like it used to be in the bureau. He made friends with Nie Cheng in front of Brother Liang, and seemed a little indifferent to Brother Liang, so he stepped aside guiltily and stopped talking.

Knowing that he regarded Nie Cheng as a teacher, Liangzi didn't feel embarrassed at all, and naturally exchanged greetings based on the relationship between him and Nie Cheng: "Captain Nie, I really came to bother you."

Nie Cheng said earlier that he should not use the old name. Liangzi was a bit stubborn because she couldn't change it for a while, so he didn't remind him any more. He pointed to the chair by the wall with a smile and said, "Both of you, sit down."

"Don't sit still, we have to go back to the game in a while, just to find out what happened to Shang Li before taking a bath, and Han Qishan's situation." Liangzi said.

"Han Qishan only has Shangli Bath in our area. His biggest business is the winery in Nanqing District. It is said that there are several warehouses in the development zone. I'm not very clear. You can check all these. As for Shangli Bath , This is the second time we have received a report about it, the last time was three years ago, it was reported □□□.

In the middle of Nie Cheng's words, Liangzi's cell phone rang suddenly. He stopped talking and made a gesture of please.Liangzi even said sorry, and connected the phone. He said "Hello, Lao Wu", his face changed suddenly within two seconds, and he called Zhang Jieming to drive before he hung up the phone. When I realized that I was not in a panic, I turned around and said to Nie Cheng, "Team Jiang was shot, and he is in the hospital for emergency treatment."
