Madness of the Heart

"Team Zhou? Team Zhou has been staying in the Psychological Research Center." The gunshots from the indoor shooting gallery were loud. Lu Yanzhou took off his gloves and walked outside with his cell phone in his hand, "Why did you go to Los Angeles again? Los Angeles has you New friend, let you forget my old friend?"

Mingshu made a "tsk", secretly thinking that straight men are in trouble now, and they can't stop the train when they talk about it.

"My old friend talks too much, it's annoying."

"Hey—you wolf-hearted thing!" Lu Yanzhou laughed heartily, and his tone gradually became serious, "Xiao Ming, you suddenly asked Team Zhou, what happened?"

"It's hard to say." Ming Shu said seriously: "It may be related to the case I'm investigating now, but I'm not sure."

"A case?" Lu Yanzhou frowned, "Since Captain Zhou came back, he has hardly seen outsiders."

Mingshu nodded, "I know. But the information I have comes from someone I can trust. Can Team Zhou's past missions be transferred now?"

Lu Yanzhou thought for a while, "If it's not a secret mission, then it should be transferred."

"Yi Fei will go to the SWAT team to look for you later. Then you can cooperate with him." Mingshu said, "By the way, do you know about Team Zhou's family situation?"

"It's clear..." Lu Yanzhou's voice sank, "But Xiao Ming, Team Zhou is the senior I respect the most. Now that he has become like this, I won't allow anyone to hurt him anymore, and I won't allow anyone to doubt his loyalty. "

Mingshu sighed, "I understand. I was on duty in the special police corps, and I respect Team Zhou as much as you do. Now either someone may attack him, or he may have important clues on him, so I must chase. "

City Bureau, Special Police Corps.

Lu Yanzhou put away his usual playful smile, and adjusted Zhou Ping's information solemnly.

When receiving the call from Mingshu, Yi Fei was also a little puzzled, not understanding why he suddenly wanted to investigate a special policeman with many merits.

Zhou Ping, 37 years old, is from Lujiang Town, Youcheng City. He graduated from the Southeast Special Police Academy and was continuously awarded as an outstanding student. When he graduated, the special police team in Dongye City was expanding its enrollment. He successfully became a member of the special police detachment of the Nancheng Branch. The Special Police Corps of the Municipal Bureau, while performing actual combat tasks, is also responsible for the training of new team members.

All the tasks performed by Zhou Ping have now been declassified, and Yi Fei took a look and found nothing suspicious.From the police to the present, Zhou Ping has not had any stains, and has been a clean and upright special policeman from beginning to end.

"I just said Team Zhou will have no problem." Lu Yanzhou breathed a sigh of relief, "You guys have been encountering perverted cases recently, Xiao Ming is too tense."

Yi Fei finished the cold tea and said to himself: "Xiao Ming must have his reasons."

When Lu Yanzhou was about to call it a day, Yi Fei suddenly asked: "Did Team Zhou talk to you about your family when you were doing well? Youcheng is in the north, and the southeast special police academy is far away from us. Special police usually start jobs nearby. How did he come here?" Dong Ye City coming?"

Lu Yanzhou sat down again, "You said that, but I remembered. Team Zhou seldom mentioned his family. His parents are definitely not in Dongye City, and he never got married."

It was clearly recorded in the file that Zhou Ping's parents were farmers in Lujiang Town, Zhou Ping was the eldest in the family, and he had a younger brother and a younger sister.In the northern countryside, this is a very common family composition.

"The Zhou team's family situation is not very good. I remember he said that he felt guilty for his family." Lu Yanzhou scratched his hair, "But what I find strange is that he never brought them to Dongye City."

Yi Fei said: "Because of his undercover status?"

Lu Yanzhou shook his head, "No, being an undercover agent will come later. Our SWAT team is actually not as busy as your Criminal Investigation Bureau, and we still have free time throughout the year. My hometown is not in Dongye City. If there is a lie, I either Go home, or take my parents over to play for a few days, and most of the brothers on the team are like this. But Team Zhou never.”

Yi Fei stood up from his seat, "You mean, Team Zhou feels guilty for his family and never cares about his family."

Lu Yanzhou was a little annoyed, and patted the table, "Forget it, I shouldn't have said that. Team Zhou just put all his energy into his work. A person like him shouldn't be questioned."

Yi Fei's eyes gradually deepened, obviously he had other thoughts.

Did Team Zhou focus on his work and neglect his family?

Or do you force yourself to be obsessed with work because you can't face your family for some reason?

Archives are always cold and can show some things, but cannot reveal deeper information.

Xu Chun came to Lujiang Town and found Zhou Ping's family.

Zhou Ping's father has passed away, and his mother Li Chunxia lives with her son Zhou Jun.

Li Chunxia is 60 years old, which is not considered old in the city, but when Li Chunxia was young, she did heavy work and suffered from illnesses. She became paralyzed three years ago. In the past six months, she has also started to lose her mind and cannot remember people.

Knowing that Xu Chun came from Dongye City, Zhou Jun showed annoyed expression, "Our family has nothing to do with Zhou Ping for a long time. He is his policeman, and we are our common people."

Xu Chun could hear that Zhou Jun was very dissatisfied with Zhou Ping's joining the police.

"Where's your sister Zhou Tian?" Xu Chun made a detour and didn't rush to ask about Zhou Ping, "Why didn't you see her?"

"It's not here for a long time." Zhou Jun paused his hand when choosing vegetables, and looked up at Xu Chun, "Are you also a policeman?"

Xu Chun simply sat down on a small bench and helped Zhou Jun choose cabbage, "Going out to work?"

Zhou Jun sneered, "Yes, I went out to work. When Ding Dianer was a big girl, he worked for him to make money, but later, he went to pursue his own ideals."

Under Xu Chun's skillful questioning, Zhou Jun finally revealed the relationship between Zhou Ping and this family——

The Zhou family is poor, and Zhou Ping is the eldest. He has good grades since he was a child. The family's money cannot support so many children, let alone send all the children to school.Zhou Tian is a girl who dropped out of school a long time ago. She makes some handicrafts with her mother at home and sells them in the market for Zhou Ping’s study. Zhou Jun’s grades are mediocre, not as good as Zhou Ping’s, but he wants to study and work in the city in the future. , but was dragged back from school by Zhou's father, who asked him to work in the fields and left all the money to the boss.

It can be said that Zhou Ping was confessed by the whole family.

Zhou's father and Zhou's mother hope that he can make a lot of money in a big city after finishing his studies, so that the whole family can live a good life.

However, Zhou Ping not only left his hometown and became a police student, but also broke contact with his family after becoming a policeman.

"Do you think it's funny?" Zhou Jun said, "If it wasn't for our sacrifice, would he be able to study? He sucked the blood of our whole family, and then flew away. I heard that he is an excellent policeman in your place. The people he helps like him more. But what about our family he left behind?"

Zhou Jun wiped his face and continued: "A few years ago my father left, and before he died, he said that he regretted it. If I had known this, I might as well have let me study. For him, I was chained to the field for the rest of my life. My sister has no education. Being a coolie, the worst thing is Xiao Xi, who doesn't know whether she is alive or dead."

Xu Chun was startled, "Who is Xiaoxi?"

It was clearly recorded in the file that the Zhou family had three children, and none of them had the word "Xi" in their names.

"It's been so many years, it's okay to tell you." Zhou Jun said: "We also have a younger brother named 'Zhou Xi'. Dad sold it to a trafficker."

Xu Chun was dumbfounded, "Is there such a thing?"

"Hey! You people from the city are making a lot of fuss. There are too many things like this." Zhou Jun shook his head, "I can't afford it. The rest of the family has to eat, and the eldest has to study. What do you think? Who are you selling to? My sister and I are both old, and my sister is still a girl. My mother can’t bear it, so I can only sell Xiaoxi. It happens that he doesn’t have a registered permanent residence, so you can’t even check with the police. “Xi” is still taken by the boss. It's 'hope'. Tsk, what hope do we poor people have? Our hopes are all pinned on him, and in the end, he's going to be a policeman who can't get any money..."

In the rural areas of the north, spring arrived very late. When Xu Chun left in a minibus, the snow on the side of the road had just melted into the black-yellow soil, making it dirty and turbid.

Hanging up the phone, Mingshu frowned and looked at the peach blossoms outside the window.

There are many peach trees planted inside and outside the Los Angeles City Bureau. When the flowers bloom, they look like a pink cloud.

He never thought that Zhou Ping's family would be like this.

Zhou Jun's words carry very strong personal emotions and cannot be completely believed, but there are many facts in them, which have been corroborated by the mouths of other townspeople.

The most important thing is that Zhou Ping has a younger brother who was sold when he was a child, and this younger brother has no household registration.

Zhou Jun said that Zhou Xi was 7 years old when he was sold. If he was still alive, he would be 27 or 26 this year.

A 7-year-old child already has memories.

He remembered his family, and everything that had happened.

Mingshu narrowed his eyes.

He Yang's secretary, Zhou Shan, is 27 years old this year.

He picked up his phone and read the message again.

"Pay attention to Zhou Ping of the SWAT team."

Pay attention, just pay attention.

The person who sent the message himself didn't understand what role Zhou Ping would play in the whole chain of clues.

But "he" will never send a message that is useless.

Zhou Shan, is it Zhou Xi who has no registered permanent residence?

If Zhou Ping hadn't been strictly protected by the police, would Zhou Ping be Zhou Shan's next target for He Yang?

Zhou Shan wanted to use He Yang's hand to avenge his childhood?

The peach blossoms in Luocheng in the north of Han Province are in full bloom, but Yingcheng in the south is rainy day after day.

The furniture in the old house had a faint musty smell. Liang Zhao bought a fried rice ball with fried rice noodles from outside, and as soon as he finished eating, he heard movement outside the door.

He didn't panic, took out a few pieces of paper and wiped his mouth, staring at the keyhole of the door.

One minute later, the door was opened, and Zhou Shan was standing at the door holding a wet umbrella.

"Have you already eaten?" Zhou Shan said while draining the water, "I brought you soup dumplings filled with crab roe."

"Where is the person?" Liang Zhao looked into the corridor, "Is it you?"

Zhou Shan didn't change his face and said: "Isn't it always me who has been in contact with you during this time?"

"Stop talking nonsense." Liang Zhao said, "You know who I want to see."

Zhou Shan finally drained the umbrella, and the smile in his eyes faded, "Mr. Liang, Mr. He has something important to do now, so it is impossible to come to see you."

Liang Zhao crossed his legs, "Is this how you treat your partners?"

Zhou Shan sighed, "I think we have shown enough sincerity."

"Sincerity?" Liang Zhao stood up and approached Zhou Shan, "I don't even want to show my face. Is this called sincerity? If that's the case, I don't want to stay in this kind of place anymore. I quit, and you guys find another master."

Zhou Shan stretched out his hand suddenly, sharp light shot out from his eyes, "Mr. Liang, have you thought about it?"

Liang Zhao sneered, "Get out of the way."

Zhou Shan did not back down, with a hint of chill in his voice, "You are the best criminal policeman in the Dongye City Bureau. Ever since you put on the police uniform, you have dedicated everything to your profession."

Liang Zhao's pupils shrank slightly, and the wrinkles between his brows deepened.

"For more than ten years, you have worked hard and climbed from an ordinary grassroots policeman to the position of the captain of the serious crime team." Zhou Shan continued: "Later, newcomers came to the team, and you strictly demanded that they use your experience , Skills are taught. They are very good, and gradually replaced your position in the serious crime unit."

Liang Zhao's hands were inadvertently clenched into fists.

"Sorry, what I just said was wrong." Zhou Shan smiled, "You have not been replaced, you have been promoted to a higher position, although you are not yet the deputy director, but you are in charge of the most important serious crime team of the Criminal Investigation Bureau , the first team of criminal investigation and the second team. Your future is bright, as long as you persist for a few more years, the position of deputy director or even the director is yours."

Outside it was raining harder than it usually does in spring.

The raindrops "crackled" on the leaky glass windows, like distant, intensive gunshots.

Liang Zhao's eyes were bottomless.

"Your career is very inspirational." Zhou Shan said again: "You have no background, and compared with the best of the same class, you are not particularly outstanding. But you have put in more effort than them, and you rarely Rest, there are countless injuries on the body, even on the face."

As he said that, Zhou Shan even stretched out his hand to touch the scar on Liang Zhao's face.

After being dazed for a moment, Liang Zhao opened his hand with a "snap".

Zhou Shan didn't mind, and he laughed, "In this society, there are not many people who can honestly say that everything I have achieved is due to my own hard work. When you become a policeman, you either rely on your family background, Either rely on the faction. But you rely on yourself and became the leader of the crime team."

After a while, Zhou Shan's tone changed, and he said regretfully, "But you still lost to those people with background."

Liang Zhao frowned extremely tightly, as if he could no longer control his emotions.

"Your immediate boss, Director Li Danli, has considerable influence, not to mention in the police circle of Dongye City, even in the surrounding area. You were promoted by him, and you are his direct descendant. You are grateful to him and regard him as the most important person. Dear teacher, what's the result?" Zhou Shan smiled helplessly, with a look of pity in his eyes, "He also failed you. How much have you done for him these years? Are you his most capable subordinate? Before retiring, why didn't you want to give you a hand? In the first half of last year, how many people thought you were the sure-fire deputy director?"

Liang Zhao pressed the corners of his lips tightly and glared at Zhou Shan angrily.

Zhou Shan shook his head, "But Director Li didn't do anything for you. The man named 'Xiao Yu'an' directly airborne and replaced you. This time, he really replaced you."

Liang Chao turned around without saying a word.

Zhou Shan immediately turned to him, "What is Xiao Yu'an's background, even if you don't check it, you can guess it? Team Liang, over the past ten years, all your hard work has been in vain in front of him, and I am not reconciled to you !"

Liang Zhao said coldly, "You don't need to replace me."

Zhou Shan nodded, "I understand! No one is more unwilling than you! If you can bear it, you will not choose to leave the Criminal Investigation Bureau. The police uniform is not worthy of you, your leader, your team members, they all match Not you! You hate the police as much as I do."

The corners of Liang Zhao's eyes twitched indistinctly.

Zhou Shan's stature is far inferior to him, but he actually forced him to take a step back, "Don't you just want revenge? Take revenge on Li Ju who didn't help you, take revenge on Xiao Yu'an who robbed you of your future, take revenge on those who left you behind Members of the serious crime team, take revenge on the police who look down on you because you have no background!"

Liang Zhao opened his mouth, but did not make a syllable.

Zhou Shan's eyes showed a triumphant and invincible light, "With your own strength, you will never be able to defeat Xiao Yu'an. But we can, Mr. He is omnipotent. As long as you make him happy, crush Xiao Yu'an to death, it will be good for him. Say it's effortless!"

The fire-like anger in Liang Zhao's eyes gradually extinguished, turning cold like burnt firewood.

"You are right." Liang Zhao said, "If I want revenge, I must cooperate with you."

Zhou Shan laughed like a sly fox.

"If you don't see your boss, then I won't see you for a while." Liang Zhao said, "But when I finish the game you mentioned, I can always see Mr. He."

Zhou Shan said, "Of course."

Liang Zhao seemed to have compromised, and returned to the sofa in silence, "But I still have one question."

A hint of impatience flashed in Zhou Shan's eyes, "Say it."

"Why are you so interested in Zhou Ping?" Liang Zhao said, "He caught you?"

"Arrest me?" Zhou Shan spread his hands, "I have never done anything illegal, how could he arrest me?"

"then you……"

"I just don't understand why someone like Zhou Ping is considered a hero."

Liang Zhao didn't speak, just stared at Zhou Shan's eyes.

Zhou Shan paused for a while, stopped continuing, and only said: "In short, just act as I said."

Capital, Special Ops.

Sporadic cases occurred in different cities, and it is difficult to find connections between them. Although vicious cases such as massacres are rare, they actually happen every year.

Most of these cases have been closed, and there is no relationship between the perpetrator and the perpetrator, and between the victim and the victim.

Just like Xiang Haoming, Lai Xiuliang, and Yin Zhen.

But together, they can find out the subtle key.

Xiao Yu'an's eyes reflected the cold light of the display screen, and after a while, he said in a deep voice: "He Yang, Zhou Lan and others treat people with no money and power as bugs, and their arrogance makes them ignore a possibility—'Bugs ' will also take revenge. The game of 'bugs' may have started long ago."
