Ma Xiaoyao opened the white paper and found an image of a head printed on it. It was obviously printed by a computer. It had a flat head, a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose bridge, and thick lips. He looked pretty good. Ma Xiaoyao looked at it.
image, while asking: "Is this what the thief looks like?"
"Yes, according to the description of the eyewitness Ergazi, the police from the Public Security Bureau revised it more than ten times before printing this image... The police showed the image to Ergazi, and Ergazi said it had a six-point image..." Wang Xiaolong said
.
"Only a six-point image?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "So, this is just a rough image. It is still very difficult to find the thief based on this."
Wang Xiaolong nodded: "It's a bit difficult... The Public Security Bureau has taken the images to the database for comparison, hoping to find similar people in the database."
"Why...do I feel that this face looks familiar?" Ma Xiaoyao said suddenly.
"Looks familiar?" Wang Xiaolong was stunned for a moment: "Leader, did you see it wrong?"
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "I really have a feeling of familiarity... It really looks familiar... I must have seen someone similar to this image before... and it is still very similar... but I can't remember who it is.
…”
Wang Xiaolong's eyes lit up: "Leader, have you ever seen anyone who looks similar to this image?"
"I should have seen him before, otherwise I wouldn't have felt familiar..." Ma Xiaoyao thought hard for a moment, but couldn't remember who it was.
Wang Xiaolong lowered his head and glanced at the image: "Leader, after your reminder, I also feel that it looks familiar..."
"Looks familiar to you?" Ma Xiaoyao raised his head and glanced at Wang Xiaolong.
"Hmm... it looks familiar... but I can't remember where I've seen it before..." Wang Xiaolong frowned. Wang Xiaolong was annoyed that his memory was not good. He looked familiar but couldn't remember who it was. This was too much.
It's depressing.
"You look familiar... I also look familiar..." Ma Xiaoyao said to himself: "Who is this person? Why can't I remember what he said?"
Wang Xiaolong also thought hard, but couldn't remember.
Both of them stopped talking, just stared at the image and thought hard...
Time passes minute by minute...
It soon became completely dark, and all the street lights outside were turned on, making the night sky extremely bright...
"Ah, it's getting dark." Ma Xiaoyao came back to his senses and shook his sore neck: "Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore, go home, if you need anything, we'll talk about it tomorrow."
Wang Xiaolong nodded: "I'll go home and think about it tonight. I hope I can remember it."
Ma Xiaoyao stood up, put on his coat, and led Wang Xiaolong out of the office.
…
Inside a spacious living room.
Ha Teng was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette. Just now, he and Wang Xiuxiu had another argument. Wang Xiuxiu left in anger, leaving Ha Teng alone at home. Although Ha Teng and Wang Xiuxiu were not married, they had
They are living together, so they can be considered a couple in name only.
"jingle……"
The doorbell rang at the door.
Haten put out his cigarette butt, stood up, walked over and opened the door: "Uh... leader? Why are you here?" There was a man standing outside the door, holding a gift in both hands, it was Li Ming.
"How about I come to see you? Are you okay?" Li Ming asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's just some skin trauma. It's okay. It will be fine after a few days of recovery... Leader, please come in quickly..." Haten stepped aside and called Li Ming into the room.
Li Ming put the gifts in his hand on the cabinet at the door: "I bought these things for you to nourish your body... There are bird's nests, canned food, bananas, apples..."
"Oh... Leader, why did you bring things here? I'm very happy to have you here..." Haten said hurriedly: "You'd better bring these things back..."
"I bought this for you, just accept it and don't refuse." Li Ming waved his hand: "I'm a little thirsty, please pour me a cup of tea."
"Okay, leader, please wait for a moment, and I'll go get you some tea." Haten asked Li Ming to sit on the sofa, then picked up an empty water cup and made Li Ming a cup of hot tea: "Leader,
I don’t have very good tea here either…”
"It's not that much. I don't have high requirements for tea." Li Ming smiled and said: "Come on, Ha Teng, stop standing, sit down."
"Hey." Haten responded, bent over and sat on the sofa, his back straight and his expression serious.
Li Ming looked Haten up and down: "Are you really okay?"
"It's really fine!" Haten said, "It's just that my face is a little swollen, but other than that, there's nothing wrong with it."
"Hateng... you suffered this time all because of me... I feel so guilty..." Li Ming sighed.
"Leader, please don't say that. I was beaten because of my own carelessness and it has nothing to do with you." Haten said urgently.
Li Ming waved his hand: "You are doing something for me. Now that you have been injured, I have an unshirkable responsibility... Okay, let's not argue about this. I have two main purposes for coming today. The first purpose is to think about
Look at you, the second purpose is to talk to you about the manhole cover." At this point, Li Ming paused: "Hatten, did you reveal your appearance at that time?"
"This..." Haten hesitated for a moment: "I was wearing a hat and a mask. When I was fighting with someone, the hat and mask fell off... But please don't worry, leader. It was dark at the time and the other party couldn't see me clearly.
appearance."
"You really didn't see clearly? Are you sure?" Li Ming asked worriedly.
Hatten shook his head: "No, it was early in the morning, it was still dark, and we were wrestling together. It was impossible for the other party to see my appearance clearly... To say the least, even if the other party could see my appearance clearly,
It doesn’t matter my appearance, because he doesn’t know me at all... Boss, don’t worry, I’ll be fine.”
"To be honest, I'm really worried." Li Ming shook his head: "I always feel uneasy."
"Leader, don't worry, nothing will happen to me..." Haten patted his chest and said, "Even if something does happen to me, I will never implicate you. I will bear all the responsibilities myself!"
Li Ming raised his eyebrows: "How can this be done..."
"Leader, don't say any more. I, Ha Teng, am today because of your support. I, Ha Teng, am a person who knows how to repay kindness. I will never forget your kindness to me." Ha Teng said loudly.
said.
"Hatten, I'm really happy that you can say that... I really did not misjudge you." Li Ming said emotionally.
"Leader, please keep your heart in mind. As long as I am caught, I will never implicate you. I will take full responsibility and have nothing to do with you!" Haten promised.
Li Ming nodded: "Hatten, don't worry. If you are really exposed and caught, I will definitely try my best to rescue you!" Li Ming came to Hatten today just to block Hatten.
Li Ming originally thought it would take a lot of effort to prevent Ha Teng from talking nonsense, but he didn't expect Ha Teng to be so happy. Before Li Ming could speak, Ha Teng automatically promised not to implicate Li Ming...
After Ha Teng's assurance, Li Ming was immediately relieved.
After chatting for a while, Li Ming got up and left.
After sending Li Ming away, Haten closed the door, took a shower, and then returned to the bedroom to sleep. That night, Haten had a nightmare. He dreamed that he was arrested by the police, and then he was sentenced.
...In the end, I was frightened and woke up. After I woke up from the fright, I couldn't fall asleep again.
…
Time flies so fast, a week has passed in the blink of an eye.
This week has been very peaceful, the manhole cover has never been lost again, and the thief who stole the manhole cover seems to have disappeared out of thin air.
Since the Public Security Bureau issued a reward notice, saying that anyone who can catch a thief will receive a bonus of 50,000 yuan, and anyone who provides information about the thief will also receive a bonus of 10,000 yuan. Under the temptation of huge bonuses, many people stay up late at night.
After sleeping, they came out one after another to hunt for thieves.
The Public Security Bureau and the Transportation Bureau also invested a lot of manpower in the search operation, but in the end nothing was found.
What has Hatten been doing these days?
Within a week, Hatten's injury has long been healed, and he plans to go to work tomorrow. During this week, Hatten has been staying at home, barely going out, eating and drinking well, and after a few days, the whole
Everyone has gained weight.
Ever since he was discovered and beaten up, Hatten has become much more honest. He no longer dares to go out to steal well covers in the middle of the night. Even if he recovers from his injuries, he will not dare to go out to steal well covers again.
Many days ago, Ha Teng received the news that the Public Security Bureau offered a reward of 50,000 yuan for his arrest. Many people went out at night to search for his whereabouts... After receiving the news, Ha Teng was shocked. 50,000 yuan
It's not a small amount, and many people will definitely be tempted. At night, I don't know how many people will stay awake and come out to search for his whereabouts. For safety...Hatten decided to stop stealing manhole covers.
After deciding to stop, Ha Teng contacted Li Ming and explained his intention to stop. Li Ming was very supportive. To be honest, Li Ming didn't want Ha Teng to get into trouble. Now the manhole cover has been stolen.
The matter has caused such a big fuss, and it is indeed time to stop and not continue, otherwise Haten is very likely to be caught, and then the trouble will be big.
During this period of time, Ma Xiaoyao had a lot of headaches and was depressed, but he had achieved quite a result.
Although treating Ma Xiaoyao relieves his anger, his own safety is more important. You can't lose the big for the small. Even if you don't steal the manhole cover, there are other ways to treat Ma Xiaoyao.
On the eighth day, Hatten put on a new suit and went to work at the county government. After a week of recuperation, all the bruises and swelling on Hatten's face had subsided, and there was no trace of any signs on the surface.
…
This week, Ma Xiaoyao couldn't eat well or sleep well. He frowned all day long and looked worried.
