The 1960s was the era of the four major detectives. The police were at the height of their power, both black and white. At that time, the Hong Kong governor had to be wary of the police.
Today, a small congressman dares to attack the police in order to attract attention, saying that the police are a waste of taxpayers' money and that police expenditures must be cut to benefit the citizens.
Things in the world always seem to be unable to escape the law of prosperity and decline. In this era, from the top to the bottom of society, everyone seems to believe that the police are synonymous with stupidity and incompetence. Even in movies, the police are always filmed as Shanshan.
The image of late cleaning.
In reality, the police often arrest people, the Department of Justice scolds them, and the court releases them.
So in order to reverse this situation, the senior police officers shouted the slogan that Hong Kong Island has the highest crime detection rate and is one of the safest cities in the world.
Cases such as the case of the woman's corpse in the hotel, which are difficult to investigate at first sight, require manpower and material resources to investigate, and may not necessarily yield results, are often suppressed by the higher authorities for the sake of the detection rate.
To suppress it means to act as if it never happened.
"Do you think it's ridiculous?" Lu Mingzhe said, "But it's a fact. For the sake of business, the hotel will not disclose the facts of this case to the outside world. The police force has kept it secret, and the media has said hello and paid hush money. In the end,
The key point is that when a woman on the Bollan Street platform died, no one would stand up for her. There would be no benefit in solving this kind of case and it would cause a lot of trouble, so letting it disappear is the most perfect result.
.”
"In the past few years, those congressmen were constantly at odds with the police force, which resulted in the police force's funding being reduced year by year. We, the police, had a limit on the number of bullets we fired every year. When there were not enough bullets, our police even went to the society to smuggle arms.
The boss takes the goods! What else? We can’t let the brothers fight the gangsters with fire sticks, right?”
Seeing Su Yi's incredulous look, Lu Mingzhe laughed at himself: "Later, in order to obtain funds and save the pensions of the brothers, the senior police officers had no choice but to shout out the goals of building the safest city in the world and achieving a 100% crime detection rate.
This slogan won the support of some congressmen and made the police force's life easier."
"Pingzai, if we can't guarantee the case detection rate, the efficiency of case handling, and the numbers on the year-end summary report that look better, those congressmen won't agree, the top brass of the police force won't agree, and I won't agree either!"
"Now when we want to open a case, we need to file an application report. Why? The superiors are afraid that some cases will be opened but not solved, which will affect the case detection rate. Do you understand now?" Lu Mingzhe said in a serious and sincere manner at the end.
"Understood." Su Yi nodded slowly and said nothing more.
Lu Mingzhe patted Su Yi on the shoulder and said: "Do your best. The resources and energy of the police force are limited. We should use the limited resources and energy in more important places. I have asked the case of the female corpse in the hotel to
The informant went to inquire on the road. If there are clues, I will notify you as soon as possible. Remember, I will give you a few more days, a week, is that enough? I will give you a week to investigate this case, but I can’t devote all my energy to it.
Put it in, and only you!"
"The information provided by Roger is very valuable. We will definitely start following Cao Nan in the next few days. I won't let you follow up in the early stage, but once there are new developments in the case, I ask you to put down the case immediately and get involved.
understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
“Very good.”
Su Yi didn't expect that he would be taught a lesson and given a lot of chicken soup.
But whether this chicken soup was a tonic or a poison raised a big question mark in his mind.
The older generation always has rich life experience and social experience to teach young people, allowing them to avoid detours, gain a foothold faster, and achieve success.
But in a society where even the police have to weigh the pros and cons when solving crimes, young people think more about how to subvert it rather than adapt to it.
Because in the eyes of young people, we are walking on a straight road, and the curve is the world.
Su Yi, who was walking straight, turned a deaf ear to Lu Mingzhe's words after three minutes.
Roger was brought back to the police station by him, and he was involved in Cao Nan's case in advance. Although he was a newbie, he discovered the first clues. Once he spoke, Lu Mingzhe would not ignore it.
,This is enough.
Su Yi decided to put Roger aside and focus on practicing his marksmanship before officially starting filming, and then try to see if he could find any clues about the case of the female corpse in the hotel.
After getting off work that afternoon, Su Yi went to the shooting range at the East Kowloon Police Training Base. After more than a hundred shots, his arm was so sore that he couldn't even lift it.
As for the hit rate——
what is that?
"Work hard!"
Before going to bed, Su Yi stood at the window to encourage himself. He told himself that if he didn't go through the wind and rain, how would he see the rainbow? No one could succeed casually.
The next day, I investigated the case during the day and found nothing; I practiced shooting at night and found nothing on the ground.
On the third day, nothing was found in the investigation and no progress was made in the gun practice.
On the fourth day, nothing was gained and no progress was made.
The fifth day, same as above...
Early in the morning on the sixth day, Su Yi was already wondering whether to continue investigating this case that had no clues and no support. He wasted five whole days, as if he had broken through the east wall and the west wall.
The blind man who looks at the wall and the northwest wall cannot find where the south wall is.
Although no one among his colleagues laughed at him, some were already complaining that he was pretending to be lazy in investigating the case, because other people in the team had been busy investigating Cao Nan around the clock these days.
The experience of these five days was a heavy blow to Su Yi.
I practiced spear for five days, and my best result was three and six rings, but they were all covered. Instead, my right arm became swollen and painful.
It is said that hard work can make up for weakness. How come when you are here, hard work can make you endure more hardships?
The things like practicing shooting and solving crimes fully prove that Su Yi is not the material to be the protagonist. He doesn't have the luck or talent.
"If I had known earlier, I might as well have practiced fighting." Su Yi regretted a little, suspecting that he had chosen the wrong development direction.
Everything went wrong, which already made him question himself a little.
At this moment, the actor terminal worn on his wrist pushed a message——
"Hello Mr. Su, Director No. 031 has sent a performance notice, please pay attention to check it."
Su Yi was in a daze for a moment. Performance announcement?
This world is too real. These days, he has been immersed in the role of a policeman, investigating cases, and practicing shooting. He has somewhat forgotten that he is actually acting.
"Performance announcement...that is to say, the plot is about to begin?"
Su Yi came back to his senses, and couldn't help but feel nervous. Not long after the plot of this movie started, there was a battle between police and gangsters, with bullets flying around, but his marksmanship still cannot be praised...
With a feeling of apprehension, Su Yi clicked on his first performance notice.
