Yu Zui was very fierce when he glared at others. Since childhood, he had a discordant and fist-struck temperament. That incident made him very angry for no reason, even more angry than the time when he was scratched by a female thief. He couldn't tell where this anger came from, but now, the anger was directed at Ma Qiulin, and Huang San's two imprisonments were related to him.
So he added angrily: "You are the one who violated the law twice!"
Ma Qiulin was stunned, straightened his waist unnaturally, thought for a while, and said without denying: "That's right, it's me."
When he said this, kindness turned into contempt, oldness turned into disdain, as if he was the king of the underground world.
"I've already made a mistake once, should I make another mistake?" Yu Zui asked, this was the most puzzling part for him, if the truth came to light, it would be an unforgivable dereliction of duty, and it was contrary to the creed of the police. Although there are many people who are dereliction of duty, it doesn't make sense to happen to this famous theft expert. He is notoriously upright, otherwise he wouldn't have accumulated meritorious service for 30 years and would not have been promoted.
"Let me ask you, if what you said was the truth, why did Huang Jiefang not choose to appeal after the wrongful judgment? If what you said was the truth, when he chose to surrender after this case, he was still the first to seek It's me. How do you explain it?" Ma Qiulin asked, his sonorous words resonant.
"This..." Yu Zui was stumped. In theory, it seemed that the two should have a deep hatred to make sense.
"Let me tell you, he didn't choose to appeal because he knew he deserved what he deserved; this time he chose to surrender because he knew that I acted fairly and would not put anyone to death. This person is the most difficult person I have ever met. He He is very shrewd. Back then, he only picked up cash and valuables. I haven’t found a channel for him to sell the stolen goods. He is also very low-key and rarely publicized. I have caught several of his accomplices in the two-year hunt. I knew it was his accomplice, but I had no evidence at all. His behavior is very good. His accomplices would rather bear the crime and not confess that they had anything to do with him, and they are not serious crimes. It's a good day again... At that time in the Xiaodian District, all the policemen knew that Huang San was a thief, but no one could do anything about him. It was he who made most of the policemen helpless, which earned him the reputation of "King of Thieves". Under such circumstances, if you were born in an era where even the basic technical detection methods are lacking, what would you do?"
Ma Qiulin spoke eloquently, with no shame in rhetorical questioning.
Yu Zui, who questioned him, was stunned instead. After seeing the weather-beaten old man, he felt very contemptuous of the gang he belonged to. Even if he deserved what he deserved, he felt that he lacked the basic humanity. But now that Ma Qiulin said this again, he thought, it seems that even if he puts any policeman in that embarrassing position, he will not do better.
Without answering, Ma Qiulin replied: "I don't have much choice. At that time, I thought, even if I get criticized by others, I will not hesitate to get rid of this cancer even if it costs me. So I did Well, I encouraged them to fight against others, and I deserved his bad luck. He happened to be severely cracked down again, and he was not strict with the procedure review, hehe, so he was sentenced to fifteen years in prison..." Ma Qiulin said, The voice was very soft, but very firm, with a kind of disdain in the words, and Yu Zui was very impressed by that fearless demeanor. Now, it was his turn to stand still, looking at this senior seriously and reverently.
"Are you going to accuse me?" Ma Qiulin asked, turning his head.
"No, well done." Yu Zui murmured. He likes this style.
Ma Qiulin suddenly smiled, the two of them felt a kind of sympathetic appreciation for a moment, Yu Zui smiled, and asked a little puzzled: "I'm a little surprised, why did he come to you after turning himself in, and I feel that he seems to have changed his mind .”
"That's because he served twelve years and six months in prison. I visited the prison thirteen times, basically once a year. The last time was to pick him up from prison. He is not only a clever thief, but also a shrewd person. He sees I felt ashamed in my heart, so I asked me to fulfill him. He also knew that I would fulfill him, because since he was released from prison, he has never committed a crime again." Ma Qiulin said.
"But why did you help him?" Yu Zui said. This is exactly the puzzling part. Others can't see the strangeness of the case, but they shouldn't hide it from someone like Ma Qiulin who has dealt with thieves all his life.
"Young man, the police is not what you do. It is just an ideal that the Skynet is well-established and meticulous. The theft is related to the honor of the police and the image of the entire environment. Compared with a thief hiding in the dark, whoever is lighter Is it more important to compare? You are not the only one who is smart, and you are not the only one who can see that there are problems in the case. This must be a matter of hiring people to steal key technologies and suppressing opponents in the business field. Local enterprises, do you think it is possible to find out the truth? Even if they can, they will be stopped by the relevant departments." Ma Qiulin said, but this sentence reveals a lot of helplessness, helplessness for the world and the environment, and for this body The helplessness of the police uniform.
"This... shouldn't the police find out the truth?" Yu Zui said.
"Yes, but under any circumstances, the goal of this case is to return the lost property to its original owner, so that everyone is happy; if you fail to do this, you will present the truth to the world, and you will not be recognized and understood. Moreover, the police The value of duty and policing is to ensure the stability of the environment most of the time. If you can't do this, it's useless to catch as many thieves... But if you do this, even if there are one or two slipping through the net, it's useless. I have been a policeman all my life, and I have caught a generation of thieves, and there are more thieves now than 30 years ago. Could it be that the current environment is much worse than 30 years ago?" Ma Qiulin said, The biggest frustration is that you have to deal with it unwillingly, and this case is it.
This is a high-level issue, and it is the difference between focusing on one case and looking at the overall situation. Yu Zui suddenly realized that he was very stupid. If he continued to struggle to catch the mastermind, he would be negating the general environment and all his peers. If he delays for a few more days, these face-saving things will be gone. In fact, he felt that it was a pity for Huang Jiefang to make a scapegoat at such an age. Now it seems that the one who really pities him is not himself, but the one who made him perfect in front of him.
"Don't worry about it, I can tell you the truth. He begged me to catch him and made a condition that I couldn't refuse, that is, to use the whereabouts of the lost property to close the case. It was his junior who made the move. He didn't want the junior to be like Like him, he ruined his whole life at a young age. I asked Director Xu for instructions, and he agreed... to deal with the enemy face to face, and sometimes had to adopt some extraordinary methods, but they were all within the allowed range. It was his adopted daughter who slipped through the net , I guess you've seen that female thief, it doesn't really matter, what she stole is much more precious than what she lost, and she will live in self-blame in the future, which is more severe than any punishment; or, she I don’t want to regret changing things even harder, and I don’t have anything to worry about, she will hit the net sooner or later.” Ma Qiulin said, talking about these things calmly and calmly.
"Thank you, Mr. Ma, I understand, I am a little too extreme." Yu Zui said, and gave Ma Qiulin a complicated look. From the calm and calm expression of his senior, he discovered something called sympathy. In fact, he does not lack this thing, but the form of expression is different.
But now it's the same, Yu Zui feels that there is nothing wrong with perfecting this person in this way.
The two of them paced and walked out of the gate of the Public Security Bureau. Ma Qiulin pointed to a small restaurant not far away and wanted to treat guests. consult. But unfortunately, not far from the house, the phone rang and kept ringing. Yu Zui thought it was the mouse or Li Erdong harassing again, so he took the phone and prepared to reprimand him. , but never received a call from her.
It's An Jialu, Yu Zui said into the receiver, he accidentally received an invitation, he had forgotten, he had promised to ask someone out after the case was over, he hurriedly apologized, and when An Jialu's invitation came out, he agreed wholeheartedly . Ma Qiulin didn't hear what Yu Zui said on the phone, but he didn't need to hear it, because Yu Zui's face seemed like winter was coming and spring was coming, like the sun was shining brightly. At this age, what could make him ecstatic was easy Guess it.
"Hey, Xiao Yu, it seems that you are going to let me go. I allow you to break the appointment, but next time, you have to treat me." Ma Qiulin said with a smile, and directly stepped down the steps for Yu Zui, who was a little embarrassed holding the phone , nodded and said: "Definitely, next time I will invite you... Mr. Ma, then I..."
"Go ahead, the police should have their own lives, forgetting to sleep and eat, and forgetting selfishness while doing business are not good qualities." Ma Qiulin waved his hands and said with a smile. Yu Zui happily ran away, ran a few steps, turned back, bowed respectfully to Ma Qiulin and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ma, actually I don't really want to find out the truth."
"Why is that? It's because you weren't the one who finally closed the case, so I'm a little angry?" Ma Qiulin said with common sense.
"No." Yu Zui smiled and said, "I didn't care about that honor at all."
"Why is that?" Ma Qiulin was puzzled.
"When I didn't catch that female thief, I thought she was disgusting, but when I found Huang San, I thought they were really pitiful. I really wanted to give him a hand." Yu Zui said, flashing past, still inexplicable sympathy, I can't bear it. Ma Qiulin didn't expect Yu Zui to have such thoughts, he looked at Yu Zui in surprise. Yu Zui smiled and said sincerely: "But now it seems that you are always doing better. You will prosper and die with this. He died well, and his wish is fulfilled. There is no regret."
In a word, Ma Qiulin was still thinking about the meaning of Yu Zui's words, Yu Zui walked away with a smile, and his heart was relieved. He no longer entangled in this case with unresolved crimes. Maybe there is no better result than now.
Ma Qiulin looked at Yu Zui's back, and slowly, with a slight smile on his face, he walked slowly with his hands behind his back. He forgot that he was going to eat, and he just paced leisurely, because he Suddenly, I found that the weather today was very good. Wisps of bright light penetrated the hazy sky and shone on the street. The moment I stepped into the post, everything was so beautiful...
