Swallowing the Seas

Wu Yu's eyeballs seemed to be frozen, and his lips were slightly parted, as if he didn't hear Xu Ju's words clearly.

"Xiao Wu?" Xu Ju had to remind.

"...Who is dead?"

"Gao Jiabao, that is the young man who was held hostage by you with a knife last night. The young man with a knife wound on his leg." Xu Ju gestured to his own leg: "Being trampled by the crowd, he was seriously injured and died before being rescued."

The room was quiet, and everyone was suspicious.

"Xiao Wu?" Xu Ju was really worried now: "Are you okay? How about you... you take a break?"

"..." Wu Yu seemed to wake up from a dream. He straightened his legs, bent them again, and pressed his forehead with a bandaged hand, as if trying to relieve himself from a certain state: "Gao Jiabao, yes."

"I know, that's the one." He murmured, then rubbed his face hard to wake up: "Yes, that person, he died. What do you want to ask?"

The leaders looked at each other in blank dismay, and several big bosses who usually had different factions and conflicts had a rare tacit understanding at this moment—the reason why this hero was not rated as a hero, probably because of something wrong with his brain.

But even in the face of a criminal policeman whose mind may not be clear, he still has to ask what should be asked. Xu Ju hesitated and looked him up and down: "Why Gao Jiabao's leg was injured, can you tell us?"

Wu Yu said: "He resisted arrest and attacked the police. I have already revealed his identity and asked him to put down his weapon. He continued to attack with a steel pipe. I had soft tissue contusions on my arms, chest, and joints from the blow. Last night, the County The criminal camera of the Public Security Bureau has taken pictures of me and left evidence. The situation was very urgent at that time, and the villagers shouted to kill us demons as sacrifices to Almighty God. The same type of people, so we have to take action, which is in line with Article [-] of the Police Act and the use of weapons regulations."

Director Xu: "..."

Director Chen: "..."

For the first time, everyone reached a tacit understanding again: dare to love this hero's brain sickness for a while? !

"We have seen your injury appraisal, but under that circumstance, is it really necessary for you to take violent actions against the villagers?" Director Chen couldn't help asking.

"I'm the one who faces the situation offline. My judgment is necessary." Wu Yu's tone suddenly became stiff without warning, and he looked at them one by one: "What? My injury appraisal is not enough to explain the necessity of taking action at that time ?”

Director Chen was born in a publicity department, and has just been transferred to the public security system. He has been in contact with work for no more than a month.In fact, he didn't mean that in his heart, but he had listened to too many bureaucratic words for many years, and the instinct of his mouth was faster than his brain. Regardless of that. You should know that it is the duty of every public security officer to shed blood and die in action..."

"What is it? Your own blood is worthless?" Wu Yu's blood rushed to his throat in an instant: "The murderers of the cult murderer have not been caught yet, and the person who set fire to the Gao family has not been found yet. Do we have to wait until the case is solved first? Other accounts?"

These words were actually very exaggerated. The leaders didn't react for a while, and then Qi Qi's eyes widened.

——This person's brain suddenly twitched?Everyone thought in unison.

As long as you stay in the system for two years, anyone with a wink will be able to see that this questioning is purely about thunder and rain. On the surface, it is this director or that director. They all came, and the questioning place was still in the hospital ward. There was neither recording nor equipment. It could be regarded as a very warm opening.

Faced with such a gentle way of questioning, anyone with a little understanding can understand the true meaning of the leaders-you cooperate with us to go through the process, admit your mistakes verbally, and talk about other things.After all, the [-] case has not yet been solved, and now there is another case of arson. The public opinion and the pressure from the superiors are already very huge. Is it really possible to make the elite front-line policemen cry for a crime of assaulting the police? Go to jail?

Everyone thought so, so when Xu Ju was worried along the way, he kept vaccinating several other people, but he didn't say directly, "Our Comrade Xiao Wu is said to have a mental problem, why don't we stimulate him?" Let's go and ask Bu Chonghua", Chen Chu and the others really thought that Xu Ju was just putting on a show, or he didn't want to come because he thought Lu Yuan was motion sick.

Unexpectedly, Xu Ju didn't have a word of falsehood at all. What's wrong with this hero is not his psychology, but his brain at all!

"Don't be angry with your superiors. This is our normal investigation procedure. What's the point of reckoning?" Director Chen couldn't help scolding: "The Bu Detachment and you went to Fengyuan Village to collect evidence but didn't file a record. Strictly Acting without authorization! Tell me, who cut the dead man's leg and made him unable to move?"

Wu Yu said stiffly, "I don't remember."

"Don't you remember such a big thing?!"

"I just don't remember."

"Okay, I'll tell you if you don't remember!" Director Chen couldn't hold back any longer, pointed at Wu Yu's nose and shouted, "There are fingerprints of both you and Bu Chonghua on the handle of the knife, so in theory, both of you There are suspicions of abuse of power and excessive self-defense! Do you know what kind of negligence is that violent law enforcement leads to the death of people?!"

"Old Chen!" Xu Ju saw that something was wrong.

"If you two abide by the principles, the whole operation should not go wrong. If you make a mistake, you should accept reasonable doubts and inquiries! Don't follow me in an unorganized and undisciplined way! Don't rely on your previous achievements to make trouble with me, You have to explain the problem to me honestly and clearly today, do you hear me! Wu Yu!"

——"Did you hear that, Wu Yu?!"

Wu Yu's chest rose and fell rapidly, and he seemed to be blocked when he wanted to say something. There were severe pains in his head, his back was pressed against the cold iron bed frame, one knee was bent, and his five fingers were tightly clutching the bed sheet.

Who is Wu Yu?he thought with a saw-saw headache.

"As long as front-line personnel abide by the action plan formulated by their superiors, there should be no mistakes. All variables and accidents are caused by mistakes made by front-line personnel..."

"Even if you are an undercover agent, you still have to abide by the principles and discipline of a public security officer. Otherwise, what is the difference with those real criminals? What's the point of fighting crime?!"

"Always face sacrifices and trade-offs, either heavier than Mount Tai, or as light as a feather..."

"From now on, your name is Xie Qianshan, understand? Use your life to remember, Xie, Qian, Shan—"

Director Chen was furious, Xu Ju stopped in a panic, and everyone rushed to dissuade him... But those words seemed to lose their meaning, turning into monotonous and piercing noises, churning into icy whirlpools, sweeping him back to that place. In the dark and damp underground cell, the blood that had been frozen for many years surged instantly.

"I didn't expect Tiaozi's lackey to lurk here for so long, Xie Qianshan? The name is probably fake, right?!"

"Did you send out the distress signal?! Who did you send it to?! Tell me?!"

……

S.O.S.

Among the countless nightmares where reality and virtuality are intertwined, only this information stands out clearly and hotly, sticking into the lungs like a soldering iron, bursting out charred and dripping flesh——

He sent it out, he called for help.

But he didn't know at that moment that he would have to wait for a full ten years before a pair of hands could pull him out of the flames of hell; and after he was saved, they would come and tell him that this was wrong and violated the regulations!

Wu Yu panted heavily, and now he really couldn't make a sound. The rusty seawater filled his chest cavity, and the lack of oxygen made his internal organs tightly twisted into a ball.It's strange that even in this situation he can still distinguish the resentment from around him, he knows it is a familiar accusation, as if it is blurred through deep water:

"As a policeman, there is no obligation to report the truth to the organization?"

"Oh, I beg you, old Chen, please say a few words, what else can you do now..."

"If you refuse to confess even half of the truth to the organization, can you believe that there is no ghost in the situation at that time?"

"Hey, what are you doing? If I knew that you can turn small things into big things, I shouldn't have brought you here..."

"Who is the person who threatened the dead with a knife to walk out of the encirclement? Is he still Bu Chonghua? I think this matter must be dealt with! Strictly deal with it! Severely deal with it!!..."

"You deal with it," Wu Yu's eardrums roared, his throat muscles spasmed, and he could hardly hear his hoarse and inflected voice: "I chopped his leg, and I took him out, what's the matter?"

"Xiao Wu!" Xu Ju shouted to stop.

"People came for me, and I killed them. One person does things and the other takes responsibility. It has nothing to do with Bu Chonghua. Why do you deal with him?"

Director Chen was fuming: "Look at him! Look at him! No attitude of admitting mistakes at all?!"

"Where did I go wrong? I didn't stand there with bare hands waiting to be killed by criminals? I didn't make a glorious sacrifice so that your epaulets collectively add a star? Or was it that I shouldn't have come back?!"

Wu Yu's ears seemed to be covered with water, the foreground was constantly swaying, and the ground swayed left and right like a pendulum.

He didn't realize it was because he had already stepped out of the hospital bed.

"I shouldn't believe you, I shouldn't believe you hypocritical bastards." Wu Yu panted heavily, closed his eyes hard, and when he opened them again, he saw the gray-black concrete floor under his feet, and the iron window leaked out. Pale light; there is a shadow behind the interrogation table not far away, and the nameplates on the table read Municipal Bureau, Provincial Department, Standing Committee, and Ministry of Public Security...but he couldn't hear what they were talking about, and he couldn't see them at all. Clear the faces of those people.

"I shouldn't have come back and let you one by one be promoted to be an official, and those who have been promoted to be promoted to a noble. The more comfortable you sit in the office, the less you will treat us as human beings, and the less you will take our lives to death. , I only know those principles and disciplines, beliefs and loyalty..."

"Wu Yu! Let go!" Director Xu and Director Shi tried desperately to separate Wu Yu's fingers from Director Chen's collar, but the terrifying force did not move at all. Director Chen's face was already flushed, and he could only He stared at him with his eyes open.

"Loyalty," Wu Yu couldn't focus because his eyes were distracted, and he smiled in a trance, but the smile was full of resentment: "Do you know how to write the word loyalty? Do you know the conditions under which people can test loyalty?! You deserve to mention it too." loyalty?!"

The door was opened with a bang, and the deputy director of the political department surnamed Wu rushed out, his face sinking like water, and told the plainclothes outside the corridor: "Old Chen can't speak, there is something wrong with this person. Hurry up and take him back to take care of him, tonight Stay in the confinement room for one night, and make sure he doesn't have any problems..."

"Wu Yu!" Xu Ju roared angrily.

"Come and deal with me, don't you want to be strict? Come on." Wu Yu almost pressed Director Chen's nose, the severe pain blurred his vision, and countless bloodshots overflowed from the rapidly congested brain.Several plainclothes rushed in at the same time and strangled him in the opposite direction. Someone hugged his waist, someone grabbed his hands. In the chaos, his scalded left hand spat out a lot of bloody liquid, the bandages were soaked through, and his fingers and his whole body were in violent convulsions. trembling.

"Cough, cough, cough—" Director Chen finally managed to break free, coughing all over his face, and pointed at Wu Yu who was being pulled away, speechless.

Xu Ju yelled loudly: "Be quieter! You guys be quieter!"

"Press the bed, press the bed, press the bed first..."

"Old Chen is dying, bring Lao Chen a glass of water, hurry up!..."

"I'll wait to see how you guys deal with me." Wu Yu was held up by several people, his brain throbbing so intensely that he couldn't stand up at all: "I'll wait to see how you guys deal with me... You'd better deal with me to death. "

"Officer Wu!" Chief Shi yelled angrily, turned his head and yelled out the door: "Doctor, doctor! Nurse, call the doctor! Quick!"

In the chaos, Wu Yu couldn't help panting heavily, his chest and abdomen rose and fell sharply, but he only breathed in but not exhaled.The doctor on duty rushed in with a few nurses, the voices and footsteps were noisy, Xu Ju and Director Shi were at a loss, and looked at each other in surprise and suspicion.

"I shouldn't have come back at all," Wu Yu closed his eyes and thought.

He seemed to fall from the edge of the cliff to the sea, his heart beat loudly, and the strong wind blew the only thought in his mind to the sky: I shouldn't have come back at all——

The salty water vapor in the void lingered upwards, and the feeling of weightlessness came from behind, followed by a muffled sound in the eardrums.

He sank slowly into the dark sea of ​​consciousness.
