Jin Jiaxuan 2: Poem of Silence

late summer.

In a certain province in the northwest, it was a normal morning.

When the sky is half-light and half-dark, Provincial Highway 109 shuttles through a certain section of the mountain, and there is very little traffic.

One side of the road is next to the mountain wall, and the other side is slightly lower, with a quiet and lush forest.

In the forest came the inelegant chirping of birds, sometimes accompanied by incomprehensible rustling.

In the distance, a black car was speeding along the provincial road, perhaps because the road was empty, or because it was in a hurry, the speed was extremely fast.

boom!A low sound came out of nowhere, short and dull, piercing the silence in the mountains.

At the same time, the car seemed to suddenly lose control. The wheels slid to the right, and the front of the car hit the side of the mountain. The body was thrown sideways, and the left side of the body slammed into the guardrail horizontally, and the solid guardrail was distorted and deformed.

Accompanied by the loud noise of the car accident, frightened birds flew up in the forest, and several birds scattered with wings.

The morning sun is rising, the morning fog has cleared, and the sky is clear.

A hundred kilometers away, in the provincial capital, a file room of the Public Security Bureau.

Xiao Zhang is a senior administrator of the archives room. He came to work early in the morning. After going upstairs, he walked towards the office while looking down at his mobile phone.

The news headlines in this province reported a serious traffic accident that happened in the neighboring prefecture-level city this morning. There was a couple in the accident vehicle, the man died and the woman was injured.

Although it was a human tragedy, the cause of the traffic accident that just happened not long ago is still under investigation, so it made headlines so soon?

Xiao Zhang took a few more glances and understood—this female injured person is not an ordinary person, but a well-known celebrity in the province.

When he arrived at the office door, he took out the key to open the door, but when he found that the door was unlocked, he pushed the door open and entered.

In the office, a tall police officer wearing a police white shirt and navy blue police trousers was pouring hot water into a bowl of instant noodles. His two sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, and his handsome face clearly said: I'm in a normal mood.

Files spread out on the desk next to it.

Computers left on all night.

There are two crushed Dongpeng cans on the top of the table foot trash basket.

——All kinds of evidence show that he worked overtime all night.How can you be in a good mood?

Xiao Zhang stood at attention and said hello: "Good morning, Golden Team!" All he had to do was salute.

The police officer known as the Golden Team took a folder and covered the instant noodles casually, and replied, "Good morning, have you eaten yet?"

"Eat, you eat instant noodles for breakfast? Didn't you go home last night?" Xiao Zhang counted silently in his heart. The end of the month has come to an end. Team Jin will spend at least 20 days in the office. The number of days I sleep in the office this month is only a lot more than this month.

The camp bed in the middle was originally a common lunch break for the big guys, and now it has to become the exclusive berth of the Golden Team.

Xiao Zhang passed by Team Jin's desk, glanced at the computer, and said, "Have you sorted out the pile of old case files all night again? Establishing electronic files for old cases is a big project step by step. There is no rush at this moment, so there is no need to work so hard." ah."

"It's okay to go back, just tidy up a little bit." Team Jin said.

"No..." Xiao Zhang saw the documents on the computer clearly, and said in shock, "You call this... tidying up a little bit?!"

Damn, I completed Xiao Zhang's business volume for a week in one night.

The task assigned by the office to the archives department this year is to actively adapt to the changes of the times and implement digital archives management.

What their archives office is doing is to establish a relatively complete electronic file for the criminal cases that occurred in the province in the 20 years since the beginning of the new century.

The workload of digital archiving is very heavy, and there are tens of thousands of cases that meet the standards for filing criminal cases in the province on average every year.

The administrators, including Zhang, worked hard day and night. It has been more than half a year since the beginning of the year, and they are very aware of how trivial and troublesome this work is.

Working in the archives room, facing copywriting and files all day long, without too complicated interpersonal relationships, and little room for improvement, it can be regarded as the most quiet department in the public security system. Comrade Xiao Zhang has never been in the office for several years. I have experienced what is called industry involution.

Until, this man came.

More than two months ago, Captain Jin parachuted into the archives room and became a newcomer among the archives administrators.

Everyone in the archives room is confused, this boss, why did he transfer to their archives room, which is recognized as a pension unit?

Jin Xu is well-known in the provincial department, and it is not an exaggeration to describe him as a "new star in the police circle" in this province.

When he graduated from the Public Security University, he had the opportunity to enter the provincial department, but unexpectedly, he volunteered to work as a grassroots criminal policeman in a prefecture-level city. In the following years, he solved countless cases, made countless contributions, and received countless awards. After hanging up, at the beginning of this year, he was promoted to the National Security Corps under the Provincial Department and served as a detachment leader. It took less than ten years to "fly up".

A young and promising criminal investigation talent, in the past two years, he has been in charge of major and important cases at the special investigation level... How can such a person be transferred to take care of the files?

The archivists who love talents, cherish talents, and have justice in mind are all indignant, and they have remonstrated one after another: How can you kill a chicken with a sledgehammer, dear leader!Let us do such trivial things as killing chickens, and the awesome colleagues should go back to do awesome things!

There are two supervisors in the archives room, but the replies are different:

One said that Captain Jin was injured while solving a major transnational case, and the organization arranged for him to take up a civilian job to recuperate;

One said that Captain Jin had made a small non-principled mistake, and the organization asked him to take up a civilian job and reflect on it.

Everyone was even more puzzled, and these two statements were also untenable.

First of all, Captain Jin has a handsome face with a rosy complexion, eight-pack abs that are alive and well, and can kill six Xiaozhang with one punch. How can he look injured?

Secondly, the photo of Captain Jin being commended for his meritorious service is still hanging in the honor column downstairs, and the captain's position has not been removed. Is this the treatment that a wrongdoer can have?

Unable to analyze the reason why the Jin team came down to manage the files, everyone was brainstorming, taking a slanted sword, and even suspicious of the people around them.

Could it be that the corrupted 50 were mixed among us?I'm afraid Captain Jin was ordered to fight against rape, right?

The archives room was on high alert, and the tense atmosphere almost surpassed that of the National Security Department, which is two streets away from the Provincial Department.

But in any case, everyone still has a basic consensus: Captain Jin must not stay in the archives room for too long, and the archives room is not a place for aspiring police talents to stay.

On the first day Captain Jin reported for duty, he received a "welcome" from his new colleagues who said they were enthusiastic but not entirely enthusiastic, indifferent but not indifferent, or embarrassing.

The person concerned responded flatly and only said, "Thank you."

Captain Jin is a handsome guy with a cold face, and he doesn't talk much. He only said two sentences that day, and the second sentence was: "Is there any work? Give me some."

Colleagues brought him before the criminal case file to be filed.

Those archives are so old that it is unbearable to look directly at them. If a Luoyang shovel is placed next to them, the exhibition of cultural relics can be held immediately.

Captain Jin didn't say anything, stepped forward to pick a few volumes, and left.

At that time, no one dared to believe that Captain Jin's small step was actually a big step in the digitization process of the archives.

Now, at this very moment, Xiao Zhang, who had witnessed Captain Jin's impressive performance with his own eyes, returned to his work station, and couldn't help turning his admiring gaze to Captain Jin, wanting to praise him, but he really didn't dare.

Captain Jin, although handsome, has a cold and fierce temperament, and always exudes an aura that strangers should not get close to. He just concentrates on doing things every day and doesn't like to talk. Everyone in the archives has a sense of distance towards him that they can only watch from a distance. Usually, when passing by his desk, he would hold his breath and speed up his pace, for fear of disturbing his rhythm.

Regarding his private affairs, the colleagues in the archives room only heard a few words on the surface.

Captain Jin has no father, no mother, no house, no car, and his unit’s income is open and transparent, so he must not have much savings.

But they have a partner, I heard that she is a policewoman, and she is very beautiful.Why is this?Of course, because he is handsome, why else?

I also heard that Jinghua works in Beijing. Not only are the two good looking, but they are also classmates at OUHK. If it weren't for the fact that they are in different places, they should have gotten married a long time ago.

Xiao Zhang dare not praise others in person, but he can boast in the work group: You may not believe it... that man!He settled more than 300 cases overnight!

Colleagues who were still on their way to work had a blast: Ah!As expected of that man!

That man didn't know that his colleagues in the archives room were talking about him in the group, and he hadn't joined the work group of the archives room.

At this moment, he was tearing off the lid of the instant noodle bowl, and while eating instant noodles, he picked up his mobile phone and sent another man—his legendary police partner—a lingering good morning message.

He said: Good morning, I am eating shrimp and fish ban mee.

The other party replied to him: Good morning, I am eating Pork Fillet Egg Burger.

Jin Xu said again: Why are you eating foreign fast food again?

Opponent: Instant noodle party still have the nerve to say me?

Jin Xu: I have noodles and soup.

Respondent: Me too, I bought coffee.

Jin Xu: Drink less coffee.

Opponent: Got it, too much caffeine is not good, I will pay attention.

Jin Xu: It’s okay to drink now, but stop drinking when we meet again, it’s bitter.

other side:?No one is forcing you to drink.

Jin Xu typed a few words, and quickly deleted them. He still had a cold face, but his eyes revealed the reason why he didn't delete it: the relationship hasn't been transferred yet, so he's embarrassing himself.

Jin Xu: Oh.

But the other party suddenly understood, and said: What kind of hooligans are you playing so early in the morning?

Jin Xu: No.

The other party joked persistently: call the police!Officer Jin, handcuff Officer Jin quickly!

Jin Xu: Report to the leader. There are no handcuffs and no guns. Officer Jin is now just a file manager who beats the clock for a day.

There is also a grievance face emoticon package at the end.

Beijing thousands of miles away.

The Ministry of Public Security has a certain research room and director's office under the jurisdiction of a certain research institute.

Shang Yang finished eating the pork tenderloin egg burger, wiped his hands with a wet towel, saw Jin Xu's self-deprecating message, and was thinking of how to comfort him, when another new message came over there.

Jin Xu: Police officer Jin is in such a miserable situation, can you ask the leader to take the time to visit?

Shang Yang didn't have time to reply.

Jin Xu quickly said, "Maybe I'll go and see you, okay?"I'll be busy with the little thing at hand in no time.

Shang Yang was originally thinking that if he had nothing to do this weekend, he would fly to the northwest to see him, but he had some work arrangements this week and he hadn’t decided on the exact time, and he couldn’t be sure if he could go out on the weekend. Xu Bai was so happy that he might as well not say anything.

And Jin Xu probably saw that he hadn't finished typing for a long time, and couldn't wait, so he sent another message.

Jin Xu: If you don’t have time, just tell me. You don’t need to explain to me. Of course, your work is more important.

Shang Yang could only say: I'm a bit busy these days.

Jin Xu: Pay attention to your body.

Speaking of caring words, Ke Shangyang was clearly aware of his disappointment.

Their long-distance lovers have not seen each other for almost two months because of the long distance and busy work.

Shang Yang decided to say a few sweet words of love, so he said: I miss you so much.

Jin Xu suddenly acted cool: Got it.

Shang Yang lost interest and didn't want to talk anymore. He looked at the time and said, "I'm going to the morning meeting."

Jin Xu is still cool: Okay, goodbye leader.

Shang Yang got up, took the laptop for the meeting, took the coffee in the other hand, and went out to the meeting.

In the corridor, I felt the mobile phone vibrating three times in my pocket, but both hands were occupied, and I couldn’t spare it to look at it. Shang Yang guessed that Jin Xu had sent something again. Most likely it was something meaningless, for example, he would complain about his colleagues, "Xiao Zhang" knits a sweater secretly during working hours, "Lao Wang" wears his wig upside down, "Xiao Hui" gets his high-heeled shoes stuck in the crack of the elevator, and so on.

It was enough to show how boring he was in the file room. Those hawk-like eyes were used to find out how criminals revealed their secrets, but now they are used to observe how colleagues make a fool of themselves every day.

Jin Xu stayed with other people, he was cool, he didn't talk much, he seemed not interested in anything except work, people who don't know him at first glance, he looks like a rebellious person who doesn't care about the trivial things in life The indifferent handsome guy.

In fact, his slander to his colleagues is no less than that of ordinary social animals, he just doesn't bother to tell others.

Just saying it to Shang Yang is not really a complaint in the standard sense, but more about sharing the little daily joys you see with your partner in a different place: Look, my life is like this.

He is a bit of a master of long-distance relationships.

Director Shang, who thinks he has no such talent, is always taken aback by the edification, and often feels from the bottom of his heart: Falling in love with my boyfriend is the most interesting thing in the world.

Entering the meeting room, Shang Yang greeted the colleagues who had already arrived, and someone asked him: "Director Shang, why are you wearing a uniform today?"

Unless there is an important occasion, everyone in the institute usually wears casual clothes.

Director Shang also mostly wears private clothes on weekdays, but today he rarely wears a neat uniform. He is handsome and full of vigor, which makes people's eyes shine.

"It's time for the annual review of my gun license, and I'm going to the shooting range in the afternoon to test shooting." Shang Yang said.According to the assessment requirements, you must wear a police uniform.

"I heard that Xiao Shang has good marksmanship." A colleague said.

"Generally," Shang Yang said with a smile, "the New Year's trial is no problem."

A colleague said: "We are engaged in theoretical research, and we can't touch a gun a few times a year..."

Another interjected: "At least Xiaoshang often goes to the grassroots team to do field research. You and I spend all day in the office. If you want me to say, we might as well cancel our gun license in the future."

"That won't work."

"How is that possible?"

"Squatting in the office all day is also a policeman in the office! Can you still call the police without a gun license?"

Everyone was talking about this topic, anyway, the director who presided over the morning meeting hadn't come yet.

Shang Yang had no intention of chatting, and took out his mobile phone to read the message he just received.At first glance, it was incredible, and a wave of enthusiasm rushed straight from the heart to the Tianling Gai.

The colleague next to him noticed his abnormality and asked concerned: "Director Shang, what's wrong? Your face is so red?"

Shang Yang hurriedly waved a fan with his hands, and said hypocritically: "It's too hot today, ha, ha ha ha."

He pushed the phone upside down into his uniform pocket, and on the screen were three messages sent to him by Jin Xu:

Jin Wook: I miss you too

Jin Xu: No matter how busy you are at work, you must take care of your health

Jin Xu: When we meet, I won’t be too polite to him
