A charming and dangerous character

Song Zhengrong didn't ask to come here on his own initiative.

He also followed the orders of his father, Director Song of the Provincial Public Security Bureau, to take over the unresolved "[-]" murder case.

Let's turn the time back to a little earlier,

Located in the city center of S, there is an apartment with an ordinary appearance but is very heavily guarded. In addition to cameras installed in almost every corner of the complex, the courtyard is even equipped with 24-hour patrol personnel. It's hard to see that this is the community where some city leaders are living.

The community is full of small five-story western-style buildings with a uniform style. Among these beautiful buildings, one of the floors is the home of Song Guohua, the current director of public security who has not yet left his post.

Now it is approaching the evening before it is completely dark. In the living room decorated in an antique traditional Chinese style, a hale and hearty middle-aged man is holding a mobile phone and listening to the phone in his ear. His feet are unconsciously slowing down. walk around.

The dim but not dark sunset light pours in from the window in large quantities, passing through a row of black wenge wood shelves in the hall and shining vertically on the middle-aged man's connection, casting a layer of brilliance on the upright and dignified facial features , it seems that his facial expression is even more solemn.

"...Hello?" Song Guohua had just returned home from work, and as soon as he took off his coat, he received a call from the chief of the city's police department: "Did you call today, Bureau Zhang?"

The other side said: "Song Ting, you asked me about that Ozawa before. I had euphemistically mentioned it to Captain Cheng who was leading him two days ago. Captain Cheng agreed very readily at the time. This Captain Cheng had a good resume before. Solving a lot of cases in City D is considered rich experience, Ozawa should be good to learn from him now."

Speaking of this, Bureau Zhang paused on the phone before continuing: "I would like to trouble you to tell Ozawa's father for me so that he doesn't have to worry about Ozawa. I will definitely take care of this child in my bureau." of."

"That's good." Song Guohua put the briefcase that he was holding in the other hand on the sofa, glanced into the kitchen, and saw his wife and nanny cooking in it, then turned around and came to the balcony quickly He seemed to be casually answering: "Xiaozai seems to be very sensible since he was a child, so we shouldn't need to worry too much."

He opened the glass door leading to the outside, went to the outside balcony and said: "I just said that Lin Pusheng cares too much about his precious son, and he is not a big girl. I am afraid that he, the only child of the Lin family, will be arrested if he enters our public security system." sorry."

Director Zhang also smiled when he heard this on the other end, and echoed: "I don't know what kind of Feng Shui has been used in this bureau recently. During this period, one or two children will be sent to me. After a while I think all the leading children of the right age in our province will come to work in the Municipal Bureau!"

"Who else sent their children there?" This was the first time Song Guohua heard Zhang Ju say this.

"No one else, only the child of Lao Huang from the D City Branch Bureau. Yep, it's also the baby in his heart, a little girl named Huang Rong, who is beautiful and juicy. She also came to our bureau as an intern, but It came through our exchange activities between the two bureaus."

Song Guohua knew about the exchange of elites between City S Bureau and D City Branch—this event was able to be held smoothly because he took the lead in agreeing.And when I chose the city D branch, it was because of the lady in the yellow bureau who had a bigger background and a higher background.

But when mentioning Director Huang's daughter, Song Guohua thought of another thing, and suddenly asked: "Since I just came to your bureau for an internship, the daughter of Bureau Huang should not be too old, right?"

"I remember that I seem to be quite young. I should have just turned 24 this year." Director Zhang was a little puzzled, so he asked, "Song Ting, what's wrong?"

"Oh, so I'm only 24 this year... It shouldn't be long since I graduated." Song Guohua smiled embarrassedly before expressing his thoughts, and then said: "Hehe, it's nothing, it's just that my Zhengrong has been We are busy with work and haven't found a partner, so my wife and I have recently started to help him find familiar friends around him, to see if there is a suitable girl with a good personality at home who is ready for him to meet first."

The words naturally meant arranging a blind date for the children of the right family, which is a good thing—so Zhang Ju said: "Hey, I think this is good! Then wait for me to talk to Director Huang in the next two days? Or you Are you going to ask Bureau Huang yourself?"

Song Guohua replied directly: "It's better for you to be the middleman. After all, the girl is doing an internship on your site, and it is easier for you to speak than me."

"Okay!" Director Zhang changed his previous Buddhist style, and this time he directly agreed.

Whether it is Song Zhengrong or Huang Rong, these two children Zhang Ju have met before, and they are both outstanding among the dragons and phoenixes. The parents of both sides know that this matter must be satisfied; , at least he was doing Director Song a favor. This kind of effort can reap the benefits of favors, so Zhang Ju naturally volunteered in a hurry.

Seeing that the other party agreed, Song Guohua seemed to let go of a big stone in his heart—although his son still obeyed his arrangements as before, he always felt that the relationship between the two of them was not as close as before, as if there was a layer of separation between them. ——The pain that has been hidden in the bottom of my heart usually seems to have an outlet.

"Then I will leave this matter to you, Bureau Zhang. Zhengrong is a good boy, but he loves his job too much. He works when others are working, and when others are dating and resting, he is still working. Li's family is already a father at his age, but does he even have a girlfriend now?"

Zhang Ju boasted a few words on the phone and comforted Song Guohua: "Zhengrong is a promising boy, he is dedicated to his work, and he will definitely develop better in the future!"

Thinking of this, Song Guohua couldn't help sighing, and said cryptically: "Hey, you also know that Zheng Rong has never taken the initiative to appear in the public eye since the incident seven years ago. Rejected interviews from all the media and newspapers... But you said, are these two years still the age when news was not developed like ours before? This kid is really confused!"

Zhang Ju immediately understood what Song Guohua said: this is an era when the news media plays an important role. Even if you are a public official, no matter what political achievements you have made, as long as they are publicized by the media, you can more easily gain the attention and support of the masses. Rate-it just so happens that these two things are indispensable and good companions on the road to politics.

He knew the estrangement between the father and son, and he also knew what caused the estrangement between them. Otherwise, Song Ting would not have taken the initiative to make things difficult for that person—it was probably because he was afraid that one day that person would fly too high and would be angry with him. Song Zhengrong was adversely affected.

Just as Zhang Ju wanted to comfort him, he suddenly thought of the famous case at hand, so Fu Zhixin immediately said: "Song Ting, since you mentioned this matter, Zheng Rong is unwilling to take the initiative to appear in the media's field of vision, but now There just happened to be a case in the Municipal Bureau that was highly exposed by the media, and it caused a lot of noise, and there were even related posts and hot topics on the Internet...and you also paid attention to it before."

As soon as he said that, Song Guohua had a general impression of the case he described in his head, so he asked, "Are you talking about the '[-]' case? The one where Qiu Chuyi's wife was killed?"

"Yes! This is it."

Originally, everyone thought it was a simple dismemberment case, but who would have thought that it would become more and more complicated as the investigation progressed.

Zhang Ju naturally wanted to drag Song Zhengrong into the water. After all, Song Guohua had a great influence. If Song Zhengrong joined, his father would definitely contribute a lot—but everyone knew that danger and opportunity coexisted. This case was solved, no matter whether the person who solved it wants to gain public attention or not, the media will definitely not miss this kind of heavy news.

Therefore, Zhang Ju cleverly asked: "I just don't know that Zheng Rong has been busy recently? This case has taken a new turn now. According to the clues and eyewitness testimony, it is preliminarily judged that the victim's husband committed the crime... If Zheng Rong's When the time comes, I will definitely only be rewarded in the future."

Song Guohua had been paying attention to this case for some personal reasons, but at first hearing Zhang Ju's suggestion, he felt a little unhappy and wanted to reject it.But then I weighed it carefully in my mind. To put it another way, what Zhang Ju said just now, this is a case where the benefits outweigh the risks.

As long as Song Zhengrong can solve the "[-]" Jiang Nanxi murder case, his reputation or status will be greatly improved compared to before.

Thinking of this, Song Guohua was still a little moved: "Then who is in charge of this case now?" Since he wants his son to take over, he must also ensure that there will be no hidden dangers in this matter, including the handover between colleagues. Any negative impact on Song Zhengrong: "If there is a sudden change at this time, will the original person in charge have any thoughts?"

Director Zhang laughed: "Don't worry, they will definitely not have any objections to Zheng Rong's joining! Because this case is now in charge of the case by Zhao Yiwei, the detachment leader of our city bureau, and the police officers from City D who came to exchange studies." Zhao Yiwei, you should also have the impression that he and Zheng Rong are both apprentices of Expert Xiong, and he has to take care of another one now, so he will definitely not have any objections; as for the one in D city, he is only the captain of the criminal investigation team in the branch. Nothing more trouble."

To make sure everything was safe, Song Guohua continued to ask: "Can you send me the information of the person in City D later?"

Zhang Ju felt that this matter was almost done, so he readily responded: "Success, I will send it to you right away."

After the two hung up the phone, Song Guohua's mobile phone soon received a multimedia message.

He clicked on the information, and the male-style content contained information about a police officer named Cheng Ye—like many ordinary young police officers, he graduated from the police academy at the age of 22 and entered the police force after successfully passing the recruitment examination. With a quick look, one can tell that the family background of this police officer must be average, otherwise he wouldn't have worked at the grassroots level for several years before being promoted to the present position because of his outstanding performance.

But he swiped up the information again, and when he saw the personal photo, he found that the face of this Cheng police officer was not "simple".

When Song Guohua's wife came out of the kitchen with a pot of soup, she saw her husband walking in a hurry, almost running to the bedroom where his son used to live: "Why are you going to that room? The food is already ready!"

But Song Guohua did not make any response.

After entering the room, he just abruptly opened the desk drawer that his son had used before, reached out and rummaged through a pile of books and straw papers, and finally found the photo that he had accidentally glimpsed.

This was a time when Song Zhengrong went home to look through things. Song Guohua happened to pass by and saw his son looking seriously at his hands. When he just wanted to go over to see what kind of photo it was, he only had time to see that there were three people on it who left such a general impression. .

When he dug it out again this time, he found that the scenery in the photo seemed to be a winter long ago. It should be a small restaurant. The dining table behind the three people in the photo still looked like a mess.

At that time, Song Zhengrong kept the energetic appearance of the police academy, and his face was full of vitality that belonged to young people.

Then he saw that besides his son, there were two other equally youthful teenagers standing side by side——

One of them was known by Song Guohua, that is, Song Zhengrong's neighbor Fa Xiao, Qiu Chuyi;

As for another young man with a handsome face but a very unrestrained smile, Song Guohua never seemed to have any impression of him in his memory.

But if you look carefully, you can still see that the slightly immature face is Cheng Ye, the police officer currently in charge of the "October [-]" Jiang Nanxi murder case.

When they saw that Song Zhengrong got off the Volvo XC60, everyone had different expressions on their faces.

"Come on, Zhengrong, let me introduce you. This is Cheng Ye, the police officer who was responsible for the '[-]' murder case." Xiong Taili pointed to his side and said to his beloved disciple with a smile on his face.

And Song Zhengrong's gaze swept over Cheng Ye, Huang Rong, Lin Ze and others standing by the roadside, and for some reason he saw something, his face suddenly changed.

On the other hand, the expression on Cheng Ye's face was very natural, as if the surprise at seeing Song Zhengrong just now did not exist.

"Hello, Police Officer Song." Like a stranger meeting for the first time, he extended his right hand to greet Song Zhengrong: "I am Cheng Ye from the D City Sub-bureau."

Song Zhengrong calmed down after listening to him, and hid all the complicated expressions before in the depths of his eyes. After a little thought, he held his right hand as generously as if meeting a stranger for the first time, smiled, and replied : "I heard Mr. Chen Jin from your city talk about you, Police Officer Cheng. He said that you are very good at investigating cases and have a lot of ideas."

"Hey, nothing. Compared with you, there is still a lot of room for improvement." Cheng Ye replied tactfully.

This time Song Zhengrong just smiled and didn't speak anymore, but his eyes were fixed on Cheng Ye all the time - before he came here, he didn't know that Jiang Nanxi's murder case on "[-]" would make him acquainted Both old friends are related.

Xiong Taili didn't seem to notice Song Zhengrong's gaze, he turned to look at Lin Ze, still saying, "Xiao Lin, since you have always been concerned about this case, then you will follow your brother Song from now on." Let's check together."

It was not Xiong Taili who arranged for Lin Ze to follow Cheng Ye before, but he himself asked to continue to be in charge of the case.

Lin Ze didn't answer what Expert Xiong said, but nodded quietly.But Song Zhengrong suddenly opened his mouth, and it was rare to take the initiative to greet him: "Xiao Ze, why don't you talk, don't you know me?"

Only then did Lin Ze whisper, "Brother Zheng Rong..."

Only then did Song Zhengrong smile at him, and then said to Zhao Yiwei next to him: "Senior brother, long time no see! I didn't expect that kid Xiao Ze to go to your office and become a senior brother with us, and I actually I just found out today."

Zhao Yiwei also rarely showed a smiling face, as if he didn't mind that the "[-]" case was "taken away" by his younger brother. Anyway, he had to be responsible for another one: "Who made you a busy person? You know your work every day. , you don’t even know that our master has accepted a new apprentice.”

And Gao Zhiqiang, Qi Zhanzhu and others who were still on the scene seemed to be the background board for everyone at the moment. First, they were not familiar with Song Zhengrong, and second, they were still shocked by the sudden change of person in charge on "Eleventh Two". The news—of course, Huang Rong was also excluded.

Because at this moment she was staring intently at the blind date her father had mentioned to her.

Song Zhengrong, who was talking with Zhao Yiwei, seemed to have sensed something suddenly. Looking in the direction, he immediately found a female police officer with ear-length short hair looking at him without blinking.

Although the female police officer is good-looking and has a heroic figure, Song Zhengrong, who didn't know that she was arranged for a blind date, directly ignored this future blind date.

Anyway, he was usually used to the "secret love" gaze from his female subordinates (of course he didn't know that he was wrong this time) - compared with this female police officer, Song Zhengrong wanted to pay more attention to Cheng Ye.

If I remember correctly, Cheng Ye should have a good relationship with Qiu Chuyi in high school. Logically speaking, he cannot be responsible for the murder of Qiu Chuyi's wife.

Can't tell whether it's a delusion or intuition, Song Zhengrong always feels that Cheng Ye's presence here is not an accident.

It was a premeditated man-made arrangement.
