Dirt

At three o'clock in the middle of the night, there was another drizzle in Lingang City.

The street lights had already been turned off, and the inside of the car was so dark that the expressions of the two could not be seen clearly, only the ups and downs of each other's breathing could be heard.

There was a "click" sound of a lighter, and flames rose from He Yuan's fingertips. He took a deep breath of cigarettes, and suddenly asked with a hoarse voice from staying up late:

"What was it like to be in 'The Flock' for three years?"

The co-pilot changed his posture, turned his head to the window and said coldly: "Normal."

If the street lights were on, one might be able to see the imperceptible sadness in Miao Miao's eyes.

"Go to bed, I'll call you at the Municipal Bureau." He Yuan said.

After a while, Miao Miao also lit a cigarette, and said vaguely:

"In those three years, there was only 'Siyuan' and no 'Miao Miao'."

The main driver was stunned for a moment, his eyes still looking at the road, Miao Miao's pseudonym on the public security intranet appeared in his mind - Miao Siyuan, after thinking for a moment, he said:

"Green grass beside the river, longing for a long way... People who travel far away... It's very suitable."

He Yuan didn't know if it was his illusion. He felt that after saying this sentence, Miao Miao froze in the co-pilot in the dark, with a faint glimmer of water in his eyes, and he opened his mouth tentatively: "You don't like this name?"

"Well, because..." Miao Miao paused, and then said: "Captain He, I lied, I know that man."

The sudden honesty shocked He Yuan's heart. The image of the man in black pointing a gun at Miao Miao seemed to be in front of him. He was a little sullen: "Then why don't you..."

"Bu Ming's younger brother - Bu Zhao, a man called 'Black Sheep' in the 'Flock of Sheep'." Miao Miao said, "I still haven't been able to catch him with my own hands."

In western countries, a group of white sheep are kept in captivity, and they don’t know when they mixed in with a black sheep. It looks very uncoordinated and eye-catching. The black sheep is always the first to jump out of the fence. Follow the routine.

However, Calvino's novel "The Black Sheep" expresses that everyone is deceiving themselves to be the white sheep, but they are still playing the role of the black sheep firmly and persistently in their hearts.

He Yuan thought for a moment, then threw a cigarette to Miao Miao: "Why did he come to kill you?"

"hate me."

The main driver took a deep breath, looked at the brightly lit city bureau in front of him, stepped on the accelerator, and stopped talking.

"The elevator is closed."

Accompanied by a soft mechanical female voice, Miao Miao stepped back a few steps and leaned against the reflective elevator wall with bangs covering his eyes.

In the forensic room, Ma Nan pushed Zhou Kangming's autopsy report in front of He Yuan, took a few mouthfuls of instant noodles, and said with a taste of old sauerkraut:

"Hit hard enough, be steady and fast without hesitation. The incisions on the limbs and neck are all to the end. The dismemberment tool can basically be determined to be an agricultural chainsaw. The strangulation mark on the neck is a fatal wound, and there are several minor friction wounds after death. It was caused by dragging, but it is harmless and has been stitched up, and the family members can claim it."

Ma Nan took a sip of instant noodles again, and pushed another report in front of He Yuan: "Here, the DNA comparison report is no different from Hu Bing's. Hu Bing really doesn't look like someone who can make such a quick move."

He Yuan slowly raised his arm, turned his resentment towards Hua Wuyu into brute force, grabbed the comparison report with discoloration of his joints, dragged it fiercely in front of him, and gritted his teeth and said a few words: "Immediately issue a wanted order. "

Ma Nan, who was slurping instant noodles, looked at the resentful He Yuan suspiciously, and then at Miao Miao, who had been standing beside him silently, and asked without knowing why, "Who messed with you?"

Immediately afterwards, from the corner of Ma Nan's eyes, he saw Miao Miao raised his index finger and made a hissing mouth, and Ma Nan's heart tightened.He swallowed his saliva, quickly put a few mouthfuls of instant noodles into his mouth, looked at He Yuan vigilantly, and was ready to fight with gods and mortals at any time.

Until Ma Nan picked up the last piece of broken noodles, He Yuan didn't speak, and sat across from him with a preoccupied look.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the meeting room was packed with police officers who had been searching all night.

He Yuan stood at the forefront of the conference table, his eyes were bloodshot, pointed at the photo on the screen, and made a deep voice from his dantian:

"One group and two groups, monitor all airport stations, and several main roads leading to the suburbs of the city. Once the target suspect is found, arrest it immediately."

"Three groups, continue to search for Hu Yan's whereabouts with all your strength."

"Group four, go to the anti-narcotics team and stay there. I want to know the tracking situation of K11's new drugs. Ge Dongjie, you go too. If there is any situation, please contact me at any time."

……

The last sentence seemed to be specifically for Miao Miao. Miao Miao's hands on his knees under the table were so hard that the fingertips turned white, but his face was calm and nothing could be seen.

"Is there anything else to report? Take action if you don't have one. Miao Miao stays here." He Yuan added.

Everyone said that there was nothing to report, and they each rushed to their jobs holding their files.

Only He Yuan and Miao Miao were left in the empty conference room. The people in front of the conference table turned their backs to Miao Miao, and a puff of smoke rose from his head. After about half a cigarette, He Yuan said: "I can transfer you The anti-narcotics team... go to help."

Miao Miao walked to He Yuan's side, skillfully took out a cigarette case from his pocket, nodded one, and said after a long silence: "No, the black sheep will come to me by itself."

"Are you afraid?" He Yuan asked.

"Not afraid."

"why?"

"You said it was the safest place in the world."

He Yuan tugged at the collar of the police uniform, his face full of affectation: "Then if you walk out of the gate of this city bureau, do I still have to personally protect you every day? Comrade 'Camel'."

Miao Miao smiled at He Yuan, shook his head and walked out of the meeting room.

He Yuan, who was in the same place, wondered if he had hallucinations after staying up all night. He actually saw Miao Miao smile at him, his eyes looked straight at Miao Miao's back, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He thought: I thought this Grandson can't laugh.

Every child is the heart and soul of parents, the pride and sustenance of parents, even if the child has grown up and is self-sufficient, it will always be the most distressed in the eyes of parents.

"Kang Ming——"

In the Criminal Investigation Office, a woman with her hair pulled up by a pearl hairpin and a slender neck embellished with a gold inlaid jade gemstone, is crying loudly in a white velvet dress. Anyone who sees this generous and elegant lady would never expect her to cry out. With such decibels, Zhou Kangming's death made this lady break the bottom line of dignity.

In all criminal cases, family members claiming the corpse is always the most worrying time. Maybe the old criminal police will not be infected by the family atmosphere, but the newcomers may not be.Mi Yue, an intern at the police station, stood beside Han Baoling, holding a box of tissues and secretly wiping away tears.

Standing in the independent office, He Yuan saw Mi Yue outside who was crying at the same rhythm as Han Baoling, knocked on the glass and signaled Mi Yue to come in.

The pear-blossoming Mi Yue gently placed the tissue box on the table, comforted Han Baoling softly, put away her tears and walked towards the independent office.

"Okay, don't cry, a criminal police officer shouldn't be too sensitive, you take this." He Yuan threw a file bag to Mi Yue, rubbed his brows and turned his back.

Mi Yue took the file bag in trepidation, glanced inside but didn't see what it was, and didn't dare to ask, but He Yuan added a sentence: "Your internship report, after the case of Hu Bing is over, you can rewrite it. I'll sign one after seeing your performance."

Mi Yue, who was a little slow, heard what He Yuan meant, and it was clear that she wanted to put a mark on her internship report. Mi Yue, who opened her mouth in a round shape, snotted and tears flowed out again after a while.

He Yuan turned around helplessly and threw a pack of tissues over, and waved at Mi Yue with palms facing inwards and backs of hands facing outwards. Mi Yue bowed deeply at a standard 90 degrees, and exited the office sniffling.

Miao Miao, who has been ignored all this time, is sitting quietly on the sofa in the corner, holding a cup of red dates and wolfberry tea, crossing her legs comfortably, and shaking her toes from time to time.

Unbearable, He Yuan coughed, and the people on the sofa were indifferent, leaning lazily on the sofa without even raising their eyelids.

He Yuan, who no longer needed to bear it, spoke with 200 million volts of high-voltage electricity: "Uncle Miao, are you here to take care of the elderly? Don't catch the sheep anymore?"

Miao Miao finally raised his eyelids, the two looked at each other, lowered their heads and took a sip of hot tea, blinked and said, "Did you assign me a task?"

"No."

"Then I'll continue drinking tea."

He Yuan stared at him silently for a few seconds, thinking "what he said makes sense" in his heart, he was speechless for a while.

The weeping Han Baoling finally stopped, and sat on a chair in a daze. Soon the office door was pushed open, and Zhang Fulai and Zhou De walked in. When Han Baoling saw her husband, the emotions she had just received broke down in a second, and there was another loud cry. crying.

"Okay! Don't cry! Take Kang Ming home, I still have something to do." Zhou De was furious. He felt that Han Baoling was ashamed of crying in the criminal investigation team.

Han Baoling had just lost her beloved son, and was reprimanded by her husband, and her mood became more volatile.She stood up, clenched her fist and slammed it hard at Zhou De's chest: "It's all about you! It's all about you who offended them! If it wasn't because of you..."

Typical shrew street style.

"Snapped!"

"what--!"

Zhou De's thick palm slapped Han Baoling's face heavily, followed by palm prints on Han Baoling's face, He Yuan who was coming out of the independent office quickly stepped forward to stop, Zhang Fulai also hurriedly held Zhou De.

Han Baoling covered her face and sobbed in a low voice, swallowing her unfinished words abruptly.

The trainee policeman Mi Yue had never seen such a battle before, she was too trembling to say anything, but she wanted to comfort Han Baoling, so she had to walk towards Han Baoling step by step.

Behind the open door, several police officers were passing by, sighing.

He Yuan kicked the door shut, helped Han Baoling sit down slowly, then took out a bottle of ice water from the small refrigerator he bought, and signaled Han Baoling to apply ice first.

"Go home! Sitting here is embarrassing to me!" Zhou De roared unrelentingly.

Han Baoling's hand holding the ice water paused in the air, two lines of tears still hanging on her face, she stood up after a while, her upbringing made her say "sorry" in a low voice.

"Put this on." Miao Miao, who heard the sound, took out a brand new mask from his pocket and handed it to Han Baoling.Han Baoling took the mask, thanked her twice and left the office.

……

The office was in an extremely awkward atmosphere.

I don't know how long it took, Zhang Fulai coughed and said slowly: "Search for Hu Bing with all your strength, and give Lao Zhou an explanation." After finishing speaking, Zhang Fulai patted He Yuan's shoulder with his hands, and glanced at Zhou De erratically. Yuan looked in his eyes and understood what he meant, nodded respectfully, turned slightly sideways and sent Gao Chen a WeChat message.

Seeing Miao Miao's eyes, Zhou De stared at him as if he could see through him. He made an excuse to take Zhou Kangming home, and left hastily. office.

"Old Zhou, although this kid He Yuan has been playing around all the time, but he can sit in the position of detachment leader with his own strength. His ability is still very good. Believe him, Hu Bing will be brought to justice soon."

"Well... I'm still optimistic about He Yuan... that Miao Miao...he..."

The voices of the two directors drifted farther and farther along the corridor.

After 2 minutes, He Yuan said, "Let's go eat."
