Sitting on the task force's bus, Ma Rongcheng was taken along the way to his destination - the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Binjiang District Public Security Bureau.
He came to the office with familiarity, and the moment he opened the door softly, he saw a group of people gathered around, discussing the case animatedly.
Aren’t there a lot of people here?
Why did I have to be sent here and still have to apply for assistance from the provincial department?
Ma Rongcheng frowned slightly. On the one hand, he complained that the other party was ignorant of applying for support. On the other hand, the enthusiastic atmosphere of handling cases at the grassroots level made him suddenly feel a sense of belonging.
Several young policemen in civilian clothes were discussing around the forensic doctor Old Tang, but it was obvious that there was only one person at the center of this gang.
It was not Old Tang who was the oldest, sitting in the middle, but the guy who stayed silently on the side, squinting his eyes and listening to the others.
Why could Ma Rongcheng easily tell that this person was the leader? The main detail is that after others finished expressing their opinions, they would subconsciously look at the young man, with hidden expectations in their eyes.
This feeling is very similar to that when studying. After the students got up to answer a difficult problem in class, all the students, including the other students present who did not participate in the solution, all looked at the teacher's meaning.
"Haha, Lao Ma, you're here!" Lao Tang, who was sitting in the middle and enjoying the young people's discussion atmosphere, saw Ma Rongcheng coming in and introduced him to everyone, "This horse expert is a trace expert from the provincial department.
, is also a famous detective in the province, and he was specially sent here to assist us in handling the case!"
"Wow! He's an expert from the provincial department! He's still a detective!" A young policeman who looked like he had just graduated jumped to his feet, his eyes filled with sparkling stars, and his admiration was beyond words.
"There are always cases that cannot be solved. Our case also hit a dead end, so we asked for help from experts!" Old Tang took the opportunity to say a few good words.
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Ma Rongguo was really impressed and burst into laughter. Everyone immediately started laughing too. This cheerful laughter instantly brought the atmosphere to a climax, as if Old Tang had made everyone laugh by himself.
Absolutely awesome.
In front of all the young police officers, Ma Rongcheng felt instantly relieved and the sullenness in his heart was gone.
Having said that, although he was temporarily kicked out of the task force as a tool, Ma Rongcheng still enjoyed the feeling of being looked up to, and this was one of the motivations for him to stay in the provincial department.
The care that this kind of platform brought to him was what Ma Rongcheng, who had no hope of career, missed.
"Hello, Teacher Ma!" The young man who Ma Rongcheng guessed was the leader of this group stood up, stretched out his hands and greeted politely, "Just call me Xiao Chen."
Ma Rongcheng smiled and held the young man's hand, feeling a chill in his heart. When he felt the strong respect from the other party, what he saw more was the roughness on his palm that was completely inconsistent with his age.
For most of the new young police officers who have passed the examination to enter the Public Security Bureau, although their cultural quality is much higher than in the early years, there are also many spoiled young police officers.
Provincial bureaus are the most serious, followed by municipal bureaus. Branch bureaus that have been transferred from the military to serve as cadres are slightly better.
He sat down next to Old Tang with a relaxed expression, and said modestly: "No matter where you are, the future of the world will have to be supported by you young people."
After chatting for a while, Ma Rongcheng, who had been to Xingdao several times and knew many people there, saw the group of police officers in front of him. Except for Huang Sansheng, who had just come from the border guard some time ago, he was also known as Xiao Huang in other people's mouth.
Except for Mao, whom he knew, the other four people had never met before, and they looked very unfamiliar.
He asked strangely: "Xiao Chen, were you temporarily transferred from other units because of this murder case?"
In the conversation just now, Ma Rongcheng heard the other party's foreign accent, but he really couldn't tell where in the province he was from. As an old criminal investigator, he could judge the other party's household registration based on his accent, which was his specialty, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to spot him on the spot.
Ask this question.
Old Tang patted his head and introduced happily: "These young brothers are all traveling colleagues from Donghai Province, and they also work in the criminal investigation department. They are Xiao Huang's comrades. They happened to live in the same place at the scene of the murder this time.
Layer, let’s come over and write down the notes together.”
Xiao Huang, Yun Province border armed police.
As we all know, according to strength, China's armed police has three parts, one is the Xinjiang Corps, the other is the Yunnan Corps, and there are other corps.
Ma Rongcheng stood in awe, stood up and greeted again with a straight face: "Officer Chen, hello."
Chen Shu, who felt guilty, said with shame: "Expert Ma, you sit down, you sit down, we are all our own people, there is no need to be so polite. We are in a meeting now, and you are here to help."
Ma Rongcheng glanced at the large mobile whiteboard next to him, which was filled with mind maps densely packed with words and photos. When he thought of the previous scene where several people gathered together to discuss in the office, he came up with an absurd idea in his mind.
in conclusion.
"Brothers, are you planning to handle this murder case?"
Old Tang laughed and said: "The case was organized by Xiao Huang, and these comrades said they would help me come up with ideas. I was still worried at first, but now that you are here, I feel more relieved now."
After that, he turned to the others and said, "Okay, since the horse expert is here, let's go to the anatomy room!"
Although Ma Rongcheng is an expert in trace examination, he also knows some forensic knowledge, so when he learned that Old Tang was waiting for him to come over, he felt a little proud.
For front-line investigators, they must have a certain understanding of the vast and complex knowledge in various fields.
"okay."
"Jiang Hai, are you still a student?"
"I'm a reserve police officer! I'm a commissioned officer!"
"Let's go, after so many years as a police officer, I have never been to an autopsy room."
"Chen Da, I will show you the way."
"Huang Mao, you'd better go and sort out the deceased's social relationships first, and then don't follow us."
"Huang Mao, have you taken the deceased's message? Hurry up and see if there are any suspicious persons."
"Huang Mao, by the way, let's contact the family of the deceased and see if we can unlock the phone. This will be more intuitive."
"Huang Mao, have you checked the video of the deceased? Where did he drink at night and with whom did he drink?"
Huang Mao cried sadly, raised his hands and begged for mercy: "Brother, brothers! I will never dare to lie down again! Really!"
"..."
Before Ma Rongcheng could recover, the group of people had already opened the door noisily and ran to the forensic building behind the yard. They really didn't waste a second.
Good guy!
During the period of recuperation, I still want to get involved in handling cases!
Are even the police academy students who have not graduated starting to get involved?
However, the non-stop flavor of the grassroots level must be suitable for me.
Sure enough, when young people say lie down, they are trying to make middle-aged people like them relax their vigilance!
Ma Rongcheng smiled helplessly and followed briskly out.
