Since Shelly left, everyone has been a little listless in the past two days when they gathered for breakfast in the hotel lobby or came back in the evening.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but even though Shelly is not a part of their team, over the past few days, they have become accustomed to the existence of this smiling little internet celebrity.
Chen Shu remembered that on the day Shelly left, she was standing at the entrance of the lobby holding a bag full of coffee for everyone, saying goodbye one by one.
Wearing a white dress without makeup, standing next to Lin Dakai and talking in a low voice, from a distance, didn't he look like a student discussing knowledge with the teacher like the school policeman Jiang Hai?
The problem lies in the different circles in which we live.
The birth of most people will really limit their future growth. It not only determines a person's starting point, but also often determines a person's end point with a high probability.
Chen Shu was sitting in the hotel lobby with nothing to do. He took out his mobile phone and scrolled through his circle of friends. He received a WeChat message from the local criminal police team Zhao with a beep.
A PDF was passed over, and Team Zhao followed up with a long voice message.
Proud of the speed of 5G, Chen Shu opened the document in seconds. Looking through the first few pages, he saw two cases that he had previously cooperated with Lao Zhao in the city bureau's physical examination room, the murder of a motorcycle driver and the kidnapping case.
.
Exit the pdf and Chen Shu clicks on Captain Zhao’s voice bar.
"Officer Chen, I am Lao Zhao. Last time you helped..."
Just after listening for a while, Wang Hao, who hurriedly ran in the door, shouted loudly: "Sorry about the traffic jam on the road! Let's go! It will take a long time to walk on the road, and we have to set off now! Otherwise, we will have to go to the prison at night!"
Chen Shu subconsciously locked the screen of his phone, picked up his travel bag, and walked out quickly with Lin Dakai and others.
Captain Zhao's voice stopped abruptly.
It is still Wang Hao's mainland patrol. The destination of this investigation is a prison in the Gobi Desert far away from the city. It is also the last stop of this nx trip.
The group of people drove on the road for about a whole day.
Most of the roads are in good condition, but in some sections the sand and gravel are too hard for cars to run over, and instead they form wavy steps, layer by layer, like washboards for washing clothes.
, not very strong bumps and jumps, just a continuous, rhythmic, and vibrating bump.
This kind of vibration experience is okay for a few minutes. It feels like a full-body massage on an electric chair. It seems very comfortable, but it is different after running for several hours. In addition to being dizzy, all the bones in the body are shaken.
It seemed as if it had been torn apart.
In addition to encountering several bad road conditions by chance, I also encountered impressive natural scenery. There was a red desert that amazed everyone who went deep into it. The hot sunshine shone on the red sand, showing the sunset glow.
Such colors, unique and beautiful.
Due to the heavy sand and dust here, you can also see tornado-like dust devils along the way, but they look several sizes smaller.
In addition to the scenery, Chen Shu and others also met local Shao Min who was driving a flock of sheep.
When Shao Min saw the strangers who slowed down the car and rolled down the window, they would wave and say hello warmly. Jiang Hai followed Wang Hao's example and expressed his goodwill loudly using a few words of Wei language he had just learned.
Julie brought a lot of fruits with her, including cantaloupe, walnuts, raisins, etc., and she shared them in the car while admiring the beautiful scenery outside the window, which was a unique experience.
Wang Hao and Chen Shu switched driving vehicles and drove smoothly, finally arriving at the prison before nightfall.
Outside the prison area is the vast Gobi Desert, but inside there are flowers in full bloom and the prison building is brand new and bright.
When the car was parked outside the prison gate, waiting for reports, Chen Shu and others felt uncomfortable after sitting in the car for a long time, so they got out one after another to relax their muscles and bones, and also took a look at the appearance of the prison.
Compared with Donghai and other coastal prisons, the characteristics of this prison are that the outer walls are tall and large, the walls are also very thick, and the top of the walls is covered with dense barbed wire.
There were four watchtowers standing on the corners around the wall, and each watchtower had a searchlight with a very high wattage. It was getting dark at this time, and the searchlight above had been turned on at full power, slowly scanning the bottom.
The surrounding environment was extremely quiet. Except for a few whistles occasionally coming from the prison and the sound of wind blowing from the Gobi Desert, there was no movement at all.
"Zizzizi."
The electric iron gate slowly opened, and Wang Hao greeted everyone to get in the car and drive into the prison compound. After entering the prison, following the instructions of the guard, Wang Hao drove the vehicle through another iron gate and stopped at a blue and white service building.
forward.
A policeman with two poles hanging on his shoulders stood on the steps in front of the building, waving enthusiastically.
On the first floor of the preparation building is the canteen exclusively for prison police and staff.
The cafeteria is very large and very clean. According to the method that Linda Kai specifically asked Wang Hao to contact the prison authorities, although the group entered a small box, it was only out of respect and politeness that the food they ate was the same.
Police officers in prison are all the same.
According to the introduction of the reception police, the canteen here is open for bidding and contracted to a third-party company in the society. Whether it is delicious or not is secondary. The main thing is to ensure cleanliness and hygiene. Since the prison is located in the Gobi Desert, raw materials have to be supplied by trucks every day.
It is impossible to make the food as good and fresh as it is delivered to and from the city.
After eating, the group of people walked into the first prison area led by the reception police. They happened to see a huge queue of more than 100 prisoners. Amidst the sound of "crash, clatter" of shackles, a group of four or five prisoners stood up from across the street.
Walking behind the rice iron guardrail.
They all wore blue prison uniforms, and some of them also wore iron shackles. There were many Chinese people inside, but most of them were Wei people with deep eyes and high noses.
Chen Shu and others all stopped in unison and looked at the prisoner team. After it had completely passed by, they followed the receiving prison policeman into the office building, and then walked around into the innermost conference room.
Another experience exchange.
After spending a long time in the conference rooms of various agencies or business units during this period, Chen Shu was also a little tired, but he couldn't bear to be polite and had to be patient.
Privately, Chen Shu thought about it in another person's shoes. Even though the policemen sitting across from him were smiling, they were probably complaining about the sudden overtime in their hearts.
During the exchange, Chen Shu learned that this prison is actually equivalent to a local public security bureau. It has guards, special police, inspectors, prison detectives, agencies, etc. Anyway, basically the prison has what the branch has. It also has what the branch does not have.
, such as the Supervisory Procuratorate, Disciplinary...x...wei,wu. Police and hospitals, etc.
The prison warden's rank is also one level higher than that of the Zhengming District Public Security Bureau where Chen Shu is located, and he is a full...c...level.
"By the way, the rescue...
, watching the female police officer who should be the prison leader drag Linda to chat after the meeting.
"Dongzhou City, Zhang Wei from the traffic police team." a policeman standing nearby reminded.
"Yes, yes, Zhang Wei." The female leader responded and smiled awkwardly, "Every year, batches of people come to help, but every time they remember their names, they leave. I feel so ashamed."
Zhang Wei? It couldn't be him... Chen Shu, who was standing behind Lin Dakai, was a little surprised. He wouldn't have bumped into an old classmate by chance in such a distant place.
Lin Dakai held the female leader's hand with both hands and tightened: "We are only here for a while, but you have spent your whole life in this Gobi Desert. It's hard work, it's really hard work."
"No, no, now that the road is open, it will be easier to go back if something happens at home."
Hey, I can only go back if I have something to do at home... Chen had a smile on his face, but he was sighing in his heart.
Such job benefits are only due to the fact that the admission score of the local provincial police academy is so low. On the other hand, the admission scores of police academies in coastal provinces in China are higher than the previous one.
For example, the Donghai Police Academy that Chen Shu studied in his early years was still a junior college. The scores of the admitted students were all close to the first-class score, and even the scores of female students were dozens of points higher than the first-class score.
After the meeting, the policeman in charge of reception in the prison area took Lin Dakai, Chen Shu and their group into a special guest house. The room was not big, but it had hot water, air conditioning, and even wifi, and it was guaranteed to be a room for one person. In this deserted place.
The uninhabited place is considered an excellent condition.
It is said that the drinking water problem was solved just last year.
After returning to the room, it was already getting late. After taking a shower, Chen Shu lay on the bed and casually sent a WeChat message to Zhang Wei asking for information. Unexpectedly, the other party directly played the video.
After picking up the video, Zhang Wei was wearing a police uniform on the screen, with a smile on his face that could not hide the fatigue hidden in the corners of his eyes.
