winter past

He went directly to the Petition Office on the first floor, and when he entered the door, he saw lawyer Zhong Ming holding a palm-sized "Working Rules for the Petition Office" and sitting on a metal stool opposite the reception window to read it.In the office, apart from this unsmiling visitor in a suit and leather shoes, there are only some policemen sitting in front of the computer, operating the scanner and typing.A cabinet-type air conditioner placed in the reception window kept blowing cold air, pennants everywhere on the wall swayed with the wind, and several golden tassels spun in the wind.

Zhong Ming raised his head and glanced at Zhao You. There were also several pennants hanging on the wall behind him, some with the words "Work together to overcome all difficulties" and some with the words "The first time, charge into battle".

Zhong Ming nodded to Zhao You, and then turned his gaze back to the book. There was a briefcase on the chair next to him.There was a stack of papers under the briefcase, and a photo of a girl could be vaguely seen printed on the paper.The girl was probably smiling, but most of the smile was cut off by Zhong Ming's briefcase.

"Vice Captain Zhao, what's the matter?" Zhang Xiangxiang, who was sitting behind the reception window, lowered her glasses and leaned over to look at Zhao You and asked.

Zhao You walked over, smiled at her, and said, "Oh, I'm here to check the past petition records." He looked at the other people in the office out of the corner of his eyes, and happened to catch a glimpse of Niu Zhenchuan not far away, lowering his head in a hurry. Hastily pressed the phone.

At this time, Zhang Xiangxiang asked Zhao You again: "What year is it? Please give me the names of the people involved. Do you want the information of the petitioners or the entire file?"

Zhao You withdrew his eyes, coughed, pressed his throat, and asked hoarsely: "I'm sorry, I have a cold and some tinnitus. I didn't hear what you just said..."

Zhang Xiangxiang stood up, approached Zhao You, and repeated the question with him.Now Niu Zhenchuan walked towards them with a smile, indicating that Zhao You could enter through the small door on the side. He rubbed his hands back and forth, his eyes were full of laugh lines, and said kindly to Zhao You: "Come in and talk." He moved away Zhang Xiangxiang: "Let me deal with it, Xiao Zhang, go and pour a cup of hot water for Deputy Zhao."

"Then why bother Deputy Section Chief Niu, you are busy, you are busy." Zhao You looked at the place where Niu Zhenchuan was sitting before, "Are you sorting out the files? I see that there are a lot of documents piled up on your desk. Please be busy, me and Xiao Just say what Zhang said."

That Zhang Xiangxiang had already walked away. Niu Zhenchuan scolded Zhao You with a stern face: "Xiao Zhao, this is your fault, and you are also an engaged person. Why don't you know how to pity Xiangxiang and cherish jade? You have a cold, please trouble me." Xiao Zhang, what if the infection is passed to her? The cold in summer is really uncomfortable, how can this girl bear it. "

Zhang Xiangxiang gave Zhao You a glass of water, and awkwardly picked up a trash can under the table and said, "I'll take out the trash." Then he walked out.

Niu Zhenchuan said again: "You should stay at home and rest honestly. The case is to be solved, but the police are also human. If they don't rest well, they will be useless. So what are you talking about solving the case?"

Zhao You sneezed, quickly covered his mouth, and said: "Yes, you are right, the cold in summer is very uncomfortable, and even a boy can't bear it. Deputy Section Chief Niu is not afraid of this difficulty and takes the initiative to welcome me. I'm a little sorry, or I'll come back another day when I get better from a cold."

"Let's talk about it when you're here." Niu Zhenchuan grabbed Zhao You and glanced at the door of the office.Zhao You made an apology for a smile, and said with a flattened voice, "Actually, it's not a big deal."

"Is it related to the case you are investigating now?" Niu Zhenchuan said, winking at Zhao You, and lowered his voice a little: "Let's go to the office inside and talk, if it is related to the case you are investigating, what is it leaking?" Secret is not good."

But Zhao You said: "What did you say? Leaking secrets?" His voice was very loud, and he turned one ear to Niu Zhenchuan: "I have tinnitus, please speak louder." The back of Niu Zhenchuan's hand: "Oh, are you afraid that our case will be leaked? It's okay, it's okay, we're not a special case team, and we don't do things like gag orders."

When the word "special case team" was mentioned, he glanced at Niu Zhenchuan. The deputy section chief Niu's eyes flashed and he lowered his head, but immediately he raised his head again, smiled and patted the back of Zhao You's hand.Niu Zhenchuan looked at the door of the office again.When Zhang Xiangxiang came back with the trash can, Niu Zhenchuan pursed his lips and smiled at Zhao You again.

Zhao You said: "I'll drink some water first." He took the paper cup and sat next to Zhong Ming, Niu Zhenchuan said: "Sit, sit, give me a keyword, I'll search, now the files are digitized, soon There will be results."

Zhao You drank half a glass of warm water, took out his mobile phone slowly, and said, "I have a bad memory, and I forgot that person's name. Wait for me to look it up, and then I will confirm with the police station at the sub-bureau."

"Okay, you check, you check." Niu Zhenchuan looked at Zhao You, "No hurry, no hurry."

Zhao You opened WeChat, and his mother sent him a WeChat message at eight o'clock last night, reminding him not to forget to have dinner with Yin Miaozai's parents at eight o'clock today.Zhao You bit the paper cup and typed with one finger.

Zhong Ming next to him suddenly spoke to him: "Xiao Zhao, I heard that you are going to Director Bian to help build the party style?"

Zhao You chatted with him: "That's right, the transfer will officially take place next month."

"I think it's still suitable for you to be a criminal police officer."

"The criminal policeman runs outside all day long, and when he never closes his eyes, he is too tired. It's okay if the case is solved, but this case can't be solved. Alas, sometimes I feel like I'm running around all day, and I'm exhausted, as if No one cares at all, it’s pointless to do these things.” Zhao You looked at the flyer under Zhong Ming’s briefcase: “Do you mind?”

Zhong Ming drew a flyer for him, at this moment, Niu Zhenchuan asked Zhao You: "Have you found it?"

"Wait, the people from the household administration haven't replied to my message yet." Zhao You said, he folded his palms together and bowed to Niu Zhenchuan, pointing to the door and saying, "I'd better wait for them to reply to the message, and then I'll come over. I'll come back another day."

"It's okay, it's okay," Niu Zhenchuan hurriedly made a comforting gesture, "We're also fine, you see, it's very quiet, wait a minute and it's okay."

Zhao You smiled and nodded: "Okay, then wait a bit."

Niu Zhenchuan walked away with a smile, returned to his seat, picked up his mobile phone and started typing again.

Zhao You continued to chat with Zhong Ming: "Are you still running a human rights case?" He looked at the leaflet in his hand, which had a color photo of a girl smiling brightly printed on it, and a line of blood-red printed words under the photo: City Bureau Meng Nangui, return my daughter's body!

Zhao You said, "The girl's mother didn't come today?"

"I'm sick, I'll be on water in the hospital." Zhong Ming said.

Zhao You nodded, and went to look at the leaflet again. Zhong Ming asked him, "I think it's interesting, are you interested in learning about it?"

Zhao You scratched his ears: "How can human life be judged by whether it is interesting or not?" He returned the flyer to Zhong Ming, who confiscated it and said, "Take it."

Zhao You shrank his shoulders, and quickly stuffed the flyer under the briefcase: "If our Zhan team sees it and says I'm nosy, let's forget it."

After he finished speaking, Dai Rou came in from the outside, she was really surprised when she saw Zhao You, and came over to greet him: "What a coincidence?"

Zhao You hurriedly got up and made a gesture to shake her hand. Dai Rou was stunned for a moment, then extended her hand.The two talked while shaking hands, Dai Judao: "Are you here to investigate the case?"

"You too?" Zhao You smiled and looked into the reception window, "Actually, it's not like I'm investigating a case, but I'm just curious about something."

Niu Zhenchuan got up again to receive him, and nodded with Dai Rou.Zhao You looked at them, and asked Dai Rou with a smile: "Have you finished the meeting?"

A few beads of sweat clearly fell on the tip of Dai Rou's nose, and some broken hair on her forehead was a little wet.

"It's over when it's over," Dai Rou asked with a steady breathing and a calm tone, "For your [-] case?"

Zhao You asked her back: "What about you? The case of the task force also involves petitioning and complaints from the masses?"

Dai Rou said: "Oh, yes, yes, that's Lao Meng..." Dai Rou glanced at Zhong Ming, pulled Zhao You aside, and said softly, "Sorry, it's not convenient to disclose."

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhao You looked at Dai Rou, "I understand, I understand."

Dai Rou also looked at him, and raised her eyebrows in the direction of the reception window: "You came first, you should ask about your business first."

Niu Zhenchuan also said, "That's right, Xiao Zhao, did the household administrator reply to your message?"

Zhao You said: "I'm back, I'm back, I just came back." He walked towards Niu Zhenchuan and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal." When he walked up to Niu Zhenchuan, he smiled sheepishly, "Last night when I asked a little gangster about something, the little gangster said that I violated the rules and enforced the law violently. He said he would come to petition and sue me. I didn't take it seriously at the time. Yes, but I've been thinking about it all night. I'm going to transfer to Director Bian. Even if I didn't do anything, I'm innocent, but if I leave such a record, it seems pretty bad. I just want to have a look. , Ask if anyone has come to read my copy.”

Dai Rou asked, "Little bastard?"

Zhao You looked back at her, and revealed in detail: "Yes, one named Daqiang, who is often active near Xingfu Street, seems to be the man under Li, the security guard of the Crystal Bar, and his father sells pork in the vegetable market. "

"Oh, that's it." Dai Rou also came over, urging Niu Zhenchuan, "Then quickly help Deputy Zhao to check."

Niu Zhenchuan said: "No need to check, no need to check, no one came this morning, except Lawyer Zhong."

Zhao Youshu let out a long breath, patted Niu Zhenchuan on the shoulder, and immediately beamed with joy: "Then I'm relieved, then I'll go first, my tinnitus is too serious, I'll go to the hospital to register for a cold."

Said that he was about to leave, Dai Rou called him: "Wait a minute, I happen to have cold medicine here, take it."

"Thank you," Zhao You took the cold medicine Dai Rou handed over, "Did you take the cold medicine with you?"

Dai Judao: "I brought it for someone else, he didn't need it, so I just stuffed it in my pocket by the way."

The two said goodbye with a smile, and Zhao You left the city bureau building. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost 10:30, so he trotted all the way into the cafeteria at the back of the building. He went directly to the second floor, where there were only A canteen, the door is deserted, the owner is watching TV inside, several police officers are scattered in the cafeteria, some eat bread, some lie down and take a nap under the fan.

Zhao You went to buy a bag of potato chips, and walked towards Suyin who was sitting by the window eating potato chips, drinking milk, and swiping her phone.

"Teacher Su." Zhao You sat down opposite Suyin.

Without raising her head, Suyin looked at the funny animal video on her phone and said, "The matter you inquired about is not yet conclusive. I just ordered the pig this morning, and it hasn't been sent to the forensic building yet."

She said, "I'm not just working for you alone."

"What are you looking at? Share and share." Zhao You said.

Suyin turned up the volume. She was watching an orangutan staring at a man eating bananas through the glass, and the background music was full of laughter.

"What did they say?" Zhao You asked, laughing along with the laughter in the video, "Is this in a zoo?"

Suyin turned the volume up, and said, "I checked some information, and the 92mm bullets uniformly equipped with Type 9 pistols use a lead-steel hybrid bullet core, an all-metal jujube-type bullet, and a 05mm bullet used by the police. As for the revolver, it is equipped with 9mm rubber bullets or anti-personnel bullets. What kind of bullets are used in the gun that day? First, you can see what the task is, and whether the superior has asked it. Ask the gun store."

Zhao You said, "Is this the orangutan from Planet of the Apes?"

"You mean Caesar?"

"Yes, what kind of orangutan is it?"

"Chimpanzee."

"And the one with the long red hair?"

"Orangutan."

"Is it an orangutan?"

"Yup……"

Zhao You scratched the bridge of his nose: "Is there no scientific name in Latin?"

Suyin said, "No."

After the orangutan video was finished, the player automatically played a video of a seal playing in water. Suyin said: "I won't say much about the power of rubber bullets. Anti-personnel bullets use composite cores, plastic and lead cores, and flat-nosed bullets." .The 05 revolver equipped with fragmentation ammunition, although it has been said that even a dog can’t kill it, but if you ask about the impact effect of the two within five meters, it must be no problem to penetrate a 5 mm thick wooden board. Humans can definitely cause certain injuries, but it’s hard to say whether it can cause death or not. For Type 92, if you aim at the head within five meters, you will definitely die. The specific characteristics of the wound will have to wait until the pig is delivered.”

Zhao You looked at the seals swimming in the water, and said, "The suspects killed by the police are usually sent to the procuratorate for judicial autopsy, right?"

"That's right." Suyin glanced at Zhao You: "Did you kill someone?"

Zhao You laughed: "Then I will read the report in front of Team Zhan now."

Suyin shrugged her shoulders: "Maybe you killed someone and abandoned the corpse, so it's not easy for you to destroy the corpse?"

Zhao You waved his hands and said, "Oh, where is this?" He asked again, "The autopsy report is in the system of the procuratorate, and it is not shared with the city bureau, right?"

Suyin nodded and stared at Zhao You: "Did you really kill someone?"

Zhao You thought for a while and said, "Then I won't destroy the corpse. The more I do, the more flaws I will leave."

Suyin also thought for a while before speaking: "Create an accident?"

"Then the person I killed must have no social relationship with me."

"Well, then you have the qualities of a serial murderer, killing people indiscriminately."

Zhao You asked, "Forensic doctor Meng didn't come to work, did he?"

Suyin raised her eyes and stared straight at Zhao You without blinking: "I'm suspended, I don't know about Lao Meng, some say it's related to the case ten years ago, some say it's related to him About the daughter."

Zhao You ate the potato chips and grinned: "Mr. Su, don't get me wrong, we are sharing information, communicating and helping each other."

Suyin closed the phone and said, "Then help me, how did your [-] case have anything to do with police pistol bullets?"

Just as Zhao You was about to answer, he saw Zhan Xuanang entering the cafeteria out of the corner of his eyes. He panted heavily, pointed at him with his fingers, but he couldn't say a word for a long time. He finally managed to catch his breath and waved his arms: "Go, go..."

Zhao You hurriedly responded and stood up: "Oh, oh, yes, yes, let's go."

He followed Zhan Xuanang and left. The two went to the parking lot. Zhan Xuanang drove, and Zhao You sat in the passenger seat. Zhan Xuanang still didn't say a complete sentence.

When the car drove out of the city bureau, Zhao You asked, "Team Zhan, where are we going?"
