Jin Jiaxuan 2: Poem of Silence

Shang Yang hurriedly found Deputy Director Du, who was also having lunch in the cafeteria, and said that he had to go out for something, and it might take a while to check in in the afternoon.

Old Du asked him, "What are you going to do?"

"Go to the police station to catch someone," Shang Yang said, also at a loss as to what happened, "Let's go."

It has been many years since he was going to this station. The courtyard where he is located is a cultural relic building, with rich green bricks, a large water tank with goldfish in the center of the courtyard, and a few big trees planted in the courtyard.He had been here many times when he was a child, and he was familiar with the way, and he remembered the lines on the water tank clearly.

As soon as he entered the vermilion gate, he saw his "cousin" standing by the red lacquered pillar on the steps, with his hands behind his back, watching the policemen in the police station going in and out of work. .

"What's your situation?" Shang Yang strode in, stopped at the bottom of the steps, and asked him, "If you don't go to class, why are you causing trouble here?"

With his hands behind his back, Jin Xu said to Shang Yang on the steps: "This police officer, be polite to me, I am now a criminal."

Shang Yang: "?"

A policeman heard the movement, came out from inside, and said, "Is it Director Shang of the research institute?"

"I am." Hearing this voice, Shang Yang was vaguely the policeman who made the call, and walked up the steps, saying, "I'm sorry to bother you. What did he do? Didn't the call say that he committed a crime? "

The police comrade smiled and said: "It was a misunderstanding, but I have figured it out. Officer Jin also helped me a lot."

Things start in the morning.

After Shang Yang went to work, Jin Xu cleaned up the house, it was about time, and it was time to go to class.

As soon as he went downstairs, he met the neighbor aunt who raised the little Pomeranian again.

Jin Xu exchanged pleasantries with her, and she once again mentioned to Jin Xu her neighbor who lived upstairs.

She told Jin Xu the last time that she felt that this neighbor was not normal. This man just moved in a few months ago, he was about forty years old, he didn’t go to work, he didn’t go out all day, and when he went out occasionally, there were few people around him. Or when it's dark, and "I can't tell what's wrong with his looks, but he doesn't look like a good person anyway."She also said that one night, when she came home late from a walk with the dog, she ran into that man in the elevator, and Xiao Bomei rubbed the man's pants, "He gave me a hard look at that time, and the look in his eyes was so fierce that it scared me. Breaking out in a cold sweat." Based on her decades of life experience, she was sure that the neighbor who lived upstairs was "absolutely not a law-abiding person."

This aunt in the community is famous for being busy and nosy, her wife passed away, and the child is abroad, only a small Pomeranian is there for company, and she is usually too busy to worry about everything. Although, enthusiasm is enthusiasm, but if it goes too far, it will cause trouble to the neighbors more than once, and the security guards are a little scared of her, to the extent that she will avoid it when she sees it from a distance.

Jin Xu heard what she said at the time, so he asked the security guard about the situation of the male tenant. The security guard said that his aunt had also told them about it, but this is Beijing, and of course the basic information of the tenant must be registered according to the regulations. The male resident is no exception. He has a clean identity. He is a writer of online novels. His work and rest are reversed day and night. It is normal not to see people during the day. He occasionally enters and leaves the gate of the community. Talkative, "Besides, the dog owner thinks his dog is cute, not everyone likes it, so this writer just annoys her dog? She thinks he is a criminal after just one look at her?", the security guard thinks Auntie made a big fuss, almost like being persecuted.

Then the National Day came, and Jin Xu and Shang Yang went out to attend a classmate's wedding.

Today, when the aunt saw Jin Xu, she hurriedly reported to him, saying that she felt that the man upstairs seemed to be spying on her these days, and she suspected that he wanted to harm her.

"..." Jin Xu said, "Have you told the security guard?"

The aunt said: "I said that the security guard told me to call the police. I just happened to meet you."

"I'm on vacation, and I don't have the right to enforce the law in different places." Jin Xu said, and he still has to hurry to go to class. He asked his aunt to call 110, or go to the nearby police station when he has time.

The aunt was obviously a little disappointed, but she still said, "Then go ahead."

The two said goodbye, and the aunt led the dog and walked home slowly.

Jin Xu also left the gate of the complex, going to take the subway, walked a few steps, turned back, went to the property office area to find the security guard, and asked about the situation.

When the security guard heard about it again, he said: "I didn't say that auntie, she was too crazy. She said that people peeped at her. She is an old lady. Why are people peeking at her? What can I do? I can only go upstairs and ask." , the writer was inexplicably questioned, he retreated to write all day long, and he didn't even know who lived downstairs."

Jin Xu said: "He said he didn't know who lived downstairs?"

The security guard said: "That's right, everyone is very busy now, who has time to care about the neighbors, and no one knows anyone when the door is closed."

After getting out of the security guard, Jin Xu went directly to his aunt's house and had to swipe his card to go upstairs. It happened that other residents wanted to go to the third floor of the aunt's house, so he followed to that floor, and then climbed three floors up.

As soon as he stepped out of the stairwell, the unusual atmosphere made him alert.

In the middle of the morning on a weekday, the corridor should have been quiet, but the door of the aunt's house was locked, and there was a faint barking sound of a puppy inside.

Jin Xu noticed that the floor mat at the door was crooked, and on the shoe rack outside the door, the pair of shoes that his aunt wore when she met him just now were neatly placed on it.He stepped forward and rang the doorbell, but no one answered. The puppy seemed to hear the human voice, and the barking became more urgent, but it was still far away, and the puppy did not come to the door.

Jin Xu's intuition was not right, something might have happened in the room, so he immediately dialed 110, reported the address, and said that there might be criminals entering the room illegally.

Halfway through the phone call, he noticed someone peeping from behind the door in the direction of the stairwell. He pretended to be ignorant and finished talking to the police officer about the situation. After hanging up the phone, he suddenly turned around and walked towards the stairwell. The man was shocked. Turning around to run upstairs, he broke through the door and overtook him. He was about to control the man from behind when his feet slipped suddenly. Jin Xu hurriedly turned sideways to make way. Behind the door of the stairwell, I tried to stand up while holding onto the door frame, but I couldn't stand up after a long while... I fell to my bones.I spend all day at home writing novels, and my physique is too bad.

Jin Xu took out gloves from his pocket, put them on, and walked in front of this man. The man was terrified, but Jin Xu just stretched out his hand, and took out the keys from a string of charms that had leaked out of his pocket. The charms were obviously ladies. s things.Jin Xu went to the aunt's door to try, and she opened the door.

At home, the aunt was bound with hands and feet gagged, bound to a chair, the puppy was tied to the head of the bed with a leash, and both of them were locked in the bedroom.

"If Officer Jin hadn't discovered it in time," said the policeman, "Auntie would be in danger."

An old man, whose hands and feet are bound, unable to move freely, without water and food, will not take too long to run out of health.The criminal planned to wait until the aunt died, and then came in and arranged the scene as a natural death of the old man living alone. In order not to leave traces of binding, he also put a towel on the inside of the rope that bound the aunt's hands and feet, and wore gloves and shoe covers throughout the crime. and shower cap.

If Jin Xu hadn't ruined his plan, Auntie and Xiao Bomei would suffer, but when the incident happened in the future, the police would have to work hard to solve the case.

The reason why Jin Xu was regarded as a "committer" and was taken back to the police station with the criminals was because when 110 called the police and arrived, the aunt was too frightened and mentally disturbed, and was unable to express any useful information. She herself suffers from various underlying diseases, so she can only be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment first, but the criminal bites back, saying that he saw Jin Xu committing crimes, acted bravely, and was injured by Jin Xu.Even if Jin Xu revealed his identity as a police officer, it is true that the opponent's leg was broken.Both of them were taken back to the police station.

The two were questioned by the police respectively. Jin Xu said his inference: the so-called internet writer who lives upstairs from the aunt is probably a fugitive suspect with a criminal record, because the aunt has become suspicious of him and has been staring at his body. For his actions, he was afraid of revealing his identity and being caught by his aunt, so he wanted to do nothing but kill people to silence him.

Policeman: "..."

When Shang Yang's "cousin" was notified by phone, the police took Jin Xu's inferences to the sky, and his narration of the whole incident could not convince the police to accept it.

The police tactfully reminded Officer Jin: "If the fractured writer insists on suing, you will be in trouble."

Officer Jin's attitude was simply confident and arrogant: "That trash slipped and fell on his own, so what does it matter to me?"

The policemen at the police station became suspicious: This criminal police colleague from the northwest, don’t worry about not being able to deal with a case while on vacation, why is there something wrong with him?

But shortly after notifying "cousin", the police received feedback from the technical investigation——

The neighbor who claimed to be a righteous man had the same DNA sequence as one of the fugitive suspects in a huge taxi robbery and murder case in a southwestern province more than ten years ago.

——This is the scene where the police officer Jin who "offended" came in, but finally swaggered about "inspecting work".

Shang Yang: "..."

With a cool look on his face, Jin Xu said to him, "I've said it all, I'm a criminal."

"How did you come up with that?" Shang Yang said in disbelief, "I think what the security guard said is right, what's wrong with the person upstairs that aroused your suspicion?"

The policeman was also very curious, and happened to be finishing the transcript, so they asked them to sit down in the office area and talk slowly.

What caught Jin Xu's attention was precisely what the security guard said.

The aunt asked the security guard and said that she felt that the person upstairs was spying on her. Although the security guard did not believe it, but in order to do their duty, or just perfunctory the auntie, the security guard knocked on the door of this person and explained the situation. If there are conflicts in friction, it is better to communicate well.

The man told the security guard that there was no such thing, and he had no idea who lived downstairs.

"That's the problem," said Jin Xu, who was a criminal at this time. "He met his aunt in the elevator, and the aunt's dog rubbed his trousers, and he was very angry about it. The Pomeranian raised by the aunt usually He likes to bark very much. This Internet writer’s work and rest are upside down day and night, so how can he sleep during the day without being affected by barking dogs? He said he didn’t know who lived downstairs, which is obviously a lie.”

But Jin Xu just thought at the time that this person should hate dogs and be unfriendly to his aunt. Maybe it was because his aunt's dog had a certain impact on his life. He just projected his dislike of dogs onto his aunt.

But this kind of thinking was completely overturned when Jin Xu found out that his aunt was tied up to die, and Xiao Bomei was just put on a dog leash to prevent him from running around.

"If it was a dog hatred, his first goal would have been to simply kill the dog, and he didn't do that."

That little Pomeranian weighed only three catties, and it was too easy for a grown man to kill it.But until 110 received the police and arrived, it was still very lively, and still had the strength to bark at the police, without even the slightest injury on its body.

"It can be seen from this that the suspect targeted Auntie from the very beginning." Jin Xu said.

The aunt and the suspect didn't know each other before, and they haven't dealt with each other since they became neighbors.

Auntie is nosy, and this time it is the neighbor upstairs. She suspects that this person looks like a "criminal" because of his irregular life and unfriendly appearance. There is no real evidence, and neither does Auntie. I went to the door to trouble the neighbors, but I just talked to the security guard and Jin Xu.After all, it is more like a pastime for the elderly living alone to pass the loneliness.

Changing to an ordinary neighbor, it didn't have any impact on life anyway, just ignoring her, no matter how hard it is to explain clearly in person, or even bickering, it is a reasonable development.

However, the way the suspect was dealt with was burglary and kidnapping.

"The person who can do this, I think there are only two possibilities, either he is crazy," Jin Xu crossed his arms, leaned on the back of the chair, and raised his legs, as if he was on his own territory, said, " Or there's something wrong with him."

The police nodded in admiration while taking notes.

Shang Yang said to the criminals: "You... sit down first."

Jin Xu also remembered that this was someone else's police station, put down his arms and legs, and sat upright again.

Shang Yang didn't expect that in the community he lived in, there would be such vicious neighbors, just a few steps away from his home, and such a dangerous murder almost happened.

"How is Auntie?" he asked.

"The hospital said it was much more stable," the policeman said, "but the person is getting older, so he has to be hospitalized for another two days of observation."

That's good, Shang Yang felt relieved, and asked again: "What did this person do to run away? Robbery and murder?"

The police said: "Yes, it happened more than ten years ago. The gang committed crimes and robbed several times in their province. Most of the drivers were killed. Only one driver escaped by chance and provided clues. The police over there broke the law." After the case was closed, the suspect was still the principal culprit. He absconded after the incident, and the accessory was recruited after he was caught. Due to technical limitations at the time, he was never caught. Unexpectedly, he hid here with us."

"...You have enough guts." Shang Yang also said with emotion, the neighborhood he lived in was only 700 meters away from their unit, and the fugitive was obviously playing tricks under the lights.

"His ID card was faked by someone else. Just looking at the photo, he looks quite similar. He also used this ID card to sign a contract to write a novel on a website." The policeman said, "We have contacted the place of residence of the person on the ID card. The border police have gone to verify, and will reply to us if there is any news.”

Jin Xu didn't speak after "sit down", and then said: "The suspect has used his ID card for at least several years, but he hasn't been exposed... This person is probably suspended."

Everyone was quiet for a moment, and the policeman said, "I'll let you know if there's any news."

He asks Jin-wook to sign the transcript, thanking Officer Kim for assisting them with their work while on leave.

After the process is over, they still have a lot of work to do, so the two of them will leave first. If there is any need to cooperate with the work, just ask Jin Xu at any time.

"This police station is really good." Jin Xu walked out of the gate and praised here.

Shang Yang looked at him delicately, and said, "Why do you say it's my cousin?"

Why else?Living in someone else's house on vacation must have a complicated relationship. When the police asked him what his relationship was with the head of the household, he made up a sentence that was his cousin.

He also teased "cousin" and said: "Cousin is doing okay? Didn't you embarrass you?"

"Cousin," Shang Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "This is my mother's original unit. Does anyone know if I have a cousin from the northwest?"

Jin Xu: "..."

It's just that the policeman who received them was relatively young, and Monk Yang didn't know him, so he avoided a lot of embarrassment.

"If another old policeman comes, I will plunge into the water tank and drown on the spot." Shang Yang said.

Jin Xu: "..."

He regretted it so much at this time, if Shang Yang's mother heard about it...he would also dive into the water tank together.

Shang Yang thought of something again, and said, "You should be honest. Did you not want to go to school, so you went back to find your aunt halfway to find out the situation? Use this as an excuse to avoid class?"

Unexpectedly, he happened to meet the scene of the crime.

Jin Xu: "..."

The criminals had no arrogance at all, with a look of bad luck being caught skipping class, and said in a low voice: "I know what I'm talking about, and there are so many homework... Whoever is over 30 has to stay up late to do homework."

Shang Yang sneered and laughed.

It is a distance from the police station and across an alley. The lunch break has just ended, and there are no passers-by in the alley at this time. The afternoon sun is very comfortable.If it wasn't for rushing back to work, Shang Yang would have wanted to bask in the sun here for a while.

"Forget it if you don't want to go to class, anyway, further studies are just a cover." Shang Yang made a decision and said, "I'm going to the grassroots to do research, and I need an assistant. Would you like to come with me?"

Jin Xu stopped abruptly and blinked wildly several times.

The two of them stood in the alley, a gust of autumn wind blew by, and the ginkgo leaves fluttered down in the yard next to them, Shang Yang's mood fluttered up and down like the yellow leaves in the wind.

He thought that Jin Xu didn't want to condescend to be his assistant, and he was a little annoyed. To cover up his embarrassment, he put his hands in his pockets and said, "It's fine if you don't want to, I won't force you, great detective."

"That's not what it means." Jin Xu couldn't believe it, and asked, "Can I?"

Shang Yang saw that this person didn't seem unwilling, and his mood was flying again. He just needed a temporary assistant. Before his next intern came, he absolutely believed that Jin Xu's ability could do the job.

"It should be possible," he said, and explained to Jin Xu that after going back to Lao Du to go through the secondment procedures, Jin Xu's original unit may be required for approval, but Jin Xu has already received half a year's leave, so this should be easy to handle, and there is no big problem.

Jin Xu's surprise and surprise were not because of formalities, or even nothing to do with it, but because of something else: "I, I never thought... that I could work with you."

Shang Yang didn't understand: "Huh?"

"I'm a little happy." Jin Xu said, he took two steps towards the outside of the alley, almost like sleepwalking, and suddenly turned back to Shang Yang, "No... I'm so happy."

He came back again, Shang Yang noticed what he was going to do by looking at his eyes, and hurriedly said: "This is outside! You bet..." He held his face and kissed him hard.

Shang Yang's scalp was about to explode, he hurriedly looked around, but fortunately there was no one, and cursed: "Are you crazy?"

"I'm so fucking happy!" Jin Xu said with such obvious happiness, "Go through the formalities now and second me immediately, quick, quick, quick."

Shang Yang was a little speechless by his state, and said, "I see, you really don't want to do your homework... Are you so happy to be my subordinate?"

"You don't understand..." He stared at Shang Yang's face, and said in a soft but strong voice, "We live together, and we can work together. I used to only dream about these two things. Think about it."
