In winter in the countryside, when the rooster crowed three times, it was still dark, and when it was dawn, Zhou Wenjuan hurried back in Yu Zui's police car. The head office's lights were still on, and as she approached slowly, she saw a scene that surprised her.
Yu Zui, no, Director Yu, was working hard and selflessly. There was a township map on the table. He was lying on the map like a demon, staring in a daze, and didn't notice anyone coming.
Concentration always makes a person look respectable. Zhou Wenjuan was recalling the remaining crimes in his memory. He looked stubborn, rebellious, and rascal, but that look is far from him now. It's far away, and at some point, the police camp has made him so serious and focused, just like many of his once naughty classmates around him, they are all changing unconsciously.
"Huh? Wenjuan, when did you come back?" Ma Qiulin came out of the east room in his clothes, and said in surprise, Zhou Wenjuan smiled and said that he had just entered. Asked why Mr. Ma got up so early, Ma Qiulin stroked his hair, a little embarrassed, suffering from an occupational disease, and his heart was knotted, and he would definitely not be able to sleep.
Ma Qiulin politely invited her to the director, and after entering the door, Yu Zui poured a cup of hot water for the two of them. As soon as they sat down, Ma Qiulin asked, "What did you find?"
"Compared with the backlog of cases you gave, this modus operandi is too consistent... The eleven cases in Shuozhou all occurred in remote mountainous areas with inconvenient transportation and even inconvenient to call the police; the four cases in Wubao Township, Lvliang almost happened On the provincial border... not to mention Qinyuan, which is lost every year, where the typical mountains are deep and the ditch is deep, and the hinterland of Zhongtiao;... Tianzhen, Yanggao, Yingxian, and Hunyuan have all had similar cases, all of which happened In the mountainous area where the police force is weak and transportation is inconvenient, is there some kind of connection between them?" Yu Zui asked suspiciously.
"How many similarities have you found?" Ma Qiulin was asking about the possibility of merging cases.
"They are all similar, but it can also be said that they are all different. Because most of the cases you gave did not even have on-site investigations, only some of the owner's confessions. I checked, and the earliest records were more than four years ago. The place where it happened is in Pianguan County. I’m surprised, after all these years, it’s not possible that a gang-like crime has been brought out?” Yu Zui asked in astonishment, he couldn’t help but be skeptical of the police’s ability to work.
"That just shows that only a few corners have been caught in the local area, and organized and premeditated gangs have not surfaced yet." Ma Qiulin said, among these similar cattle stealing cases, the truly ingenious modus operandi , were overwhelmed by frequent cases, he smiled and asked again: "Besides, what is the quality of your rural police? Don't you know? This kind of police quality is limited to just catching one by chance. There is almost no possibility of catching gangs."
A question made Yu Zui speechless, and he smiled awkwardly. As far as his subordinates are concerned, it is already very good if they do not steal cattle from fellow villagers. When he asked again, Ma Qiulin had already answered for him: "It's not that I haven't checked it. As far as I know, this series of cattle stealing cases was mentioned at the Provincial Police Work Conference two years ago. ... You can't use the police, most of them are like us now, there are no clues, no sightings, no traces... Even when the police are received at the county and city levels, it has been stolen for many days... Living things. Unlike goods, it cannot be stored. There are more than 60 slaughterhouses and more than a dozen large-scale cold storages in Taiyuan City alone. The annual consumption of meat is an astronomical figure. If it is expanded to the whole province, think about it How can a police force with a population base of 3/10,000 investigate such cases?" Ma Qiulin said.
The words already hinted at his judgment, yes, this is a very intuitive and very simple judgment, as long as it is stolen, the cow becomes beef, and becomes a delicacy on the table, I am afraid that the thief will be caught, and even the forensics will be caught. The possibility is gone.
While speaking, Yu Zui returned to that bored look, with his eyes closed, he was flicking the coins in his hand, very skillfully, as if the eyes grew on the fingers, and the coins rolled back and forth between the fingers at an even speed. Ma Qiulin knew that this was a subconscious action of thinking, so he didn't bother, and looked back at Zhou Wenjuan, seeing that the sky was about to dawn, he said directly to go for a walk, and got up.
Zhou Wenjuan sat quietly, not planning to disturb Yu Zui. She looked at Yu Zui with admiration and admiration. She was thinking that she accidentally put on this police uniform and realized her long-cherished wish. She hasn't had a chance to say thank you to the person who recommended her. Seeing Yu Zui in such a predicament at this time, she was thinking again, it seems that it is not a blessing after the realization of the ideal that she once dreamed of, at least this kind of suffering in the mystery is not something ordinary people can bear.
With a jingle, the coin was out of control, Yu Zui opened his eyes, as if he had caught some inspiration, he got up suddenly, he flipped through the map nervously, searched for documents from the PDA, found some records, and quickly wrote something on the paper. Zhou Wenjuan leaned over curiously, and saw that Yu Zui had written numbers line by line. It took him a long time to understand that it was the date. After writing the date, he connected to the Internet to check the terrain, landform, and weather of the crime scene, and recorded them one by one. When he raised his head for a while, he saw Zhou Wenjuan startled him, and asked nervously, "Huh? What are you doing?" here?"
"I came in an hour ago." Zhou Wenjuan said with a smile. At this time, Yu Zui came to his senses, slapped his head and said, "Oh, I'm so busy and confused, sit down, I'll pour you some water."
"You're confused again, you just poured it for me, and you haven't finished it yet." Zhou Wenjuan said again.
Yu Zui was so embarrassed that he didn't know why, he smiled awkwardly, sat down, and asked excitedly: "Don't tell me the result, let me guess."
"Okay, I used the team's forensic testing equipment and asked two experts to get the result." Zhou Wenjuan said with a smile.
"The cow was lured away." Yu Zui smiled and said slowly.
Zhou Wenjuan smiled and nodded. It was a simple and simple answer, but there seemed to be something else in her expression.
"There should be forage grass, no mistake, although the mountain wind is strong, but if you use a stone to hold it down, or tie it up, the problem will not be a big problem." Yu Zui said.
"Yes, it's the alfalfa leaves left." Zhou Wenjuan nodded again, and the answer was correct.
Using that thing to seduce a cow that hasn't seen the grass all winter is more effective than pulling a beautiful woman to kidnap a hooligan. This may become the most critical breakthrough point in this case, Yu Zui and Ma Qiulin both thought of this possibility almost at the same time. Only in this way can the cattle be stolen silently, or not "stealing", but letting the cattle go to the designated position.
"Since there are no witnesses, they must have improved their theft methods. After all, in this poor place, there are dogs everywhere. If the movement is a little louder, he can't run away in the middle of the night, but this does not affect their manipulation outside the village..." Yu Zui thought Then, nodded his head, looked at Zhou Wenjuan and said: "Several saliva remains, there should be other things, the amount of pasture should not be too large, otherwise it will be inconvenient to transport and feed, and the cattle eat a lot... So, there should be Things that meet the following conditions: 1. Cows like to lick food; Solids, powders, and liquids are not suitable. Creamy ones are the best. Put them on stones, let him lick them, find pastures, and then walk along the route unconsciously... So in broad daylight, a pile was completed Theft without witnesses, that's all, it can't be wrong."
Yu Zui slapped the table and figured it out. In an instant, Zhou Wenjuan's smile froze. That was the answer. Her stunned expression was somewhat surprised and puzzled. Yu Zui said for her: "It's very simple. Pulling while eating is the work of livestock. If you stay there for so long, you must have found delicious food... In fact, when the truth of all unsolved cases is revealed one day, you will find that it is simple and simple, why? Are you Are you shocked by my analysis?"
Yu Zui couldn't hide his complacency, Zhou Wenjuan smiled shyly, but said in his mouth: "I'm actually shocked, how did you become like this?"
"What?" Yu Zui asked strangely.
"You look very dedicated." Zhou Wenjuan smiled sheepishly.
Yu Zui blushed a little, thinking of the bullshit police school years, he thought for a while, and said helplessly: "Do you still remember what our old principal said at the graduation ceremony, wearing a police uniform means A kind of responsibility... I really didn't understand this word before, even when I came here, I wanted to smash the pot and smash it louder, but you saw it yesterday, and the situation of the loser is almost killing people Come on, it’s really unreasonable to be so poor and get thieves... The fellow villagers are all watching helplessly, not to mention being a policeman, they are not policemen, and they can’t just sit idle if they can help.”
"Don't be too happy, just as you judged, after licking, the traces will disappear naturally, we can only confirm that it is a paste, but the mentioned saliva residue samples are very few, not enough to analyze what is inside .” Zhou Wenjuan reminded.
"The content is not important, the method is the key."
Yu Zui said, watched the sky brighten, got up, Zhou Wenjuan smiled, did not comment on this answer, and then she found out that Yu Zui was different, to be precise, it was Director Yu's official Wei came out, stretched his neck and yelled at the sleeping in the east wing:
"Young dog, Suantou, dumb... Get up and work... I won't get up again, I will throw cold water on the quilt."
After yelling several times, the lazy policeman finally woke up early. When Yu Zui turned around, he found Zhou Wenjuan was smiling with his mouth covered, and he also smiled cheaply...
…
Don't count on the police quality of the township police. Waiting for Yu Zui to send Ma Qiulin and Zhou Wenjuan back, the crooked melons and jujubes have not been cleaned up yet. Li Dai is pushing the start lever with all his strength. It is too cold in winter. His broken Jialing motorcycle wouldn't start without pedaling thirty or fifty times. Zhang Guanping acted as a temporary master chef, and he still cooked instant noodles, which made the township police feel a little nauseous. Li Shuanyang stopped eating and wanted to go home, but he didn't dare to go back when he saw the boss was there. As for Brother Gou, he just came out of the toilet with his pants up and rubbing his eyes. He whispered as he walked, "When I fell asleep, I dreamed that the cow came back by itself. I reasoned that the bull must have hooked up with the two cows. Go out and engage in 3P.
Baji was slapped, Li Yifeng was startled, the director was staring at him, he chuckled, Yu Zui pointed and shouted: "Do you really treat yourself like an animal?"
"Of course, our life is not as good as livestock." Li Yifeng retorted.
Unexpectedly, someone picked up the quarrel, hey, and his head came out from the wall. It was Zhang Meng, who asked in surprise, "Who called me?"
Yu Zui and Li Yifeng were taken aback for a moment, immediately forgot Zhang Meng's nickname, and laughed out loud, which made Zhang Meng, who was exercising outside in the morning, grin and curse, and ignored them.
I tidied up hastily and set off on the road in a hurry. Four motorcycles, six police officers plus Dong Shaojun, Li Dai and Zhang Guanping each carried one person. In this place, apart from motorcycles, there really was no other means of transportation with such mobility. Yu Zui delivered a binoculars in a car, and he said: "Report immediately when you find the target, don't be alarmed."
What is the goal? Yu Zui has already explained it in detail, Qingcao. Just look for it on the mountain road leading to the secondary road.
"It's winter, can it grow grass?" Li Shuanyang, a village policeman, was dumbfounded.
"The bald man still has hair on his head, why can't there be grass in winter?" Yu Zui couldn't explain it, and pushed back...
"Hey, director, what about the tens of miles of mountain roads? Who pays for the fuel for motorcycles? If I can't do business, I have to pay for it personally?" Zhang Guanping asked the key question.
"Ah bah! Before the government gave you money, did you do anything? Get out." Yu Zui yelled and refused.
"Is there always a food subsidy?" Li Dai asked expectantly.
"Giving you a subsidy, can there be a restaurant on the mountain!?" Yu Zui smoked a cigarette, lighted it up, and waved away people.
Wow, at this time I have learned how the director is stingy, dare not give a dime, just let you go to work, the township police feel uncomfortable, unexpectedly Yu Zui lit a cigarette and said: "As long as you go to the place, the photo Take it back for me, and increase the bonus this month... But whoever wants to be lazy and not work, be careful I will deduct it."
Finally, there was a shot in the arm. The township policeman kicked his right foot, the motorcycle started, and he walked away happily. Even Li Yifeng felt that staying in the institute was boring. After sitting on Li Dai's motorcycle, he had to keep up with him. to handle the case. After all, I have been a policeman for so many years, and I haven't handled a case yet, not to mention that it is related to the issue of losing money, so I can't underestimate it.
The group of cars was dispatched, and the momentum was not small. Yu Zui sighed, and still felt that the quality of the township police was really dangerous, unlike the team members of the anti-pickup team in the city who dealt with cases every day, who had a pair of piercing eyes. This search will take four or five villages, the closest is 17 kilometers, and the farthest is more than 30 kilometers. Even a small negligence may miss the hidden suspect... By the way, he is also preparing to leave, But when it was time to leave, I realized that I had left a big omission, and there was no car.
My own car was assigned to Ma Qiulin, and he was embarrassed to take the instructor's small Changan. This poor village is no different from other places, and it may not be possible to hire a car even if you spend money. Seeing Dong Shaojun coming out with his things, he was dumbfounded. Dong Shaojun asked strangely: "What's the matter, didn't you say we're going to the secondary road?"
"There is no car." Yu Zui murmured.
"No car? Then how to get there?" Dong Shaojun didn't understand the difficulties of the township police.
"Wait, wait for a while, I'll think of a way." Yu Zui patted his head, thinking of going to the township government to borrow a car, but he was a little embarrassed. The township government has a few private cars, but they can't borrow them. Go to the case? Just as he was thinking, he heard the roar of a car, Dong Shaojun's ears pointed, and he frowned: "Huh? There are cars with such a large displacement in the village? Old-fashioned 212? It doesn't look like it."
He put down his things, took a few steps to the gate of the courtyard, and said in surprise: "Damn it, Land Rover... ah, why did you stop our car?"
"It's broken..." Yu Zui was startled, it must be Hu Niu's revenge, he just ran a few steps nervously, when Li Yifeng yelled like killing a pig: "Boss... help!"
When Yu Zui arrived at the door, he saw Li Yifeng running back like crazy, the Land Rover was parked by the side of the road, the car door was open, a white shepherd dog was barking and chasing after him, the village chief Li Jiayuan laughed The branches trembled. Li Yifeng, who was rolling and crawling, was frightened by the shepherd dog chasing after him, howling continuously.
"What's going on?" Dong Shaojun was depressed.
"Damn, this girl is so wild." Yu Zui grabbed a shovel and ran out.
"Boss, help..." Li Yifeng ran towards Yu Zui, and Yu Zui was grabbing a shovel, growling, threatening the running dog, waving the shovel in his hand, and the dog stopped suddenly, barking at Yu Zui. Roaring, Li Jiayuan yelled crisply from behind: "Dabai, bite him."
Unexpectedly, the dog kicked its long legs and jumped up as high as a person. Yu Zui was so frightened, oh my god, he threw the shovel and ran away. He and Li Yifeng went in two directions. Li Yifeng ran in a panic, turned half a circle around the courtyard, picked up a few bricks and stones to scare him, but when he turned around, the dog caught up again. After running around, I happened to see Zhang Meng who was practicing his arm and leg strength on poplar trees outside the courtyard, and he yelled in a panic, "Brother Meng, help me..."
Suddenly, Zhang Meng turned over from the tree trunk and jumped down. He strode up, ran up a few steps, and flew in front of Li Yifeng. It didn't stop suddenly, kicked the dog a few meters away, the dog wailed a few times in pain, bared its teeth and pounced back. Unexpectedly, Brother Meng from the special police team was not a vegetarian. The moment Kankan rushed forward, he stretched out his hand in a flash, grabbed the dog's collar, and seemed to strangle the dog all at once. The dog whined a few times towards its owner.
"Damn it, animals are smart." Yu Zui hid in the door opening and praised.
"Let go, let go of my Dabai." Li Jiayuan shouted angrily and ran up.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Li Yifeng rubbed oil on the soles of his feet and slipped around in a circle. It seemed that things were going to be difficult today. Zhang Meng squinted, took the dog by the arm, and threw it a few meters away. The dog, which lost its courage, ran back to its owner with its head drooping. Li Jiayuan patted the dog's head distressedly, and reprimanded Zhang Meng: " How did you hit my dog..."
The second half of the words seemed to soften. In her eyes, a tall, tough and resolute young man was smiling disdainfully. His heroic expression seemed to have some kind of magical power, suppressing her urge to get mad, so she A little suspicious and a little expectant, he asked: "Who are you? I haven't seen you before."
"Police, it's wrong to let a dog bite a person. What if it hurts someone?" Zhang Meng said. He was also surprised that Bai Fumei, who was not easy to see in the urban area, appeared in the poor village. The beautiful woman stroking the white dog, wearing a light blue winter dress, and knee-high riding boots, was like a picture that moved his heart, and he couldn't help but take a second look. It's strange that the habitual swearing didn't come out.
"Can the young dog and your director be regarded as human beings?" Li Jiayuan was still a little aggrieved and said unhappily.
"Oh, they're really not human. What's wrong with them? Tell me, and I'll beat them back." Zhang Meng became sympathetic, and made the beauty so angry. He seriously suspected that Gou Shao and Yu Jian had done something outrageous, but Unexpectedly, Li Jiayuan didn't have the face to say this. She changed the subject, got up, and asked Zhang Meng: "Forget it, forget it, can't you hide from me if you can't provoke me? You haven't told me yet, who are you? "
"From the Second Criminal Investigation Team of the Municipal Bureau."
"Why did you come to Sheep's Head Cliff?"
"Investigate the cattle theft case."
"Wow, I heard that Guanyin Village and Hougou Village have lost a few cows, which has alarmed the city?"
"Don't be alarmed, stop by and have a look..."
"It's fine if you come, relying on the gang of rural police is not worth it at all."
"The township police are basically not policemen in our eyes."
The two got closer and closer, until they stood together leaning against a tree trunk and chatting. But Dong Shaojun in the doorway looked stupid. Youdao is a fan of the authorities, and the onlookers are clear. The two onlookers are very clear at this time. Dong Shaojun looks at Yu Zui strangely, and Yu Zui also looks at him with a cheap smile. Who is it? Looks like Zhang Meng met eyes?"
"College student village official, daughter of a wealthy family... oh, I see, this Bai Fumei has evil habits, and likes animals in human form." Yu Zui said.
"Why do I hear your words sour." Dong Shaojun teased.
"What kind of ear, it's not sore at all." Yu Zui smiled and added, "It's just that Nima is a little jealous... Hey, it seems that the car has been stolen."
Dong Shaojun glanced at the aggressive Land Rover, and stared at Yu Zui in astonishment. That means, you dare to even think about that car? Unexpectedly, Yu Zui ran out early, and went straight to the two people who were still chattering. Li Jiayuan glared at him, but the thick-skinned Yu Zui automatically filtered it, and introduced with a straight face: "Zhang Meng, let me introduce you, this is The village official of Zhongzhong Village and the head of Li Jiayuan have done a lot of practical things for the people in the village... Village head Li, this is my classmate Zhang Meng. , came here to help us solve the problem.”
Zhang Meng was used to Yu Zui's utterance of dirty words, so it sounded so nice to him, but it made him feel very harsh. Li Jiayuan gave Zhang Meng a very appreciative glance, and said sweetly, "Brother Meng, my dormitory is in the township government, come and play when you have time."
"Hey, okay." Yu Zui answered for Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng was displeased, but was blocked by Yu Zui, and asked Village Chief Li with a straight face, "Cun Chief Li, you see that the criminal police from the Municipal Bureau have come to handle the case... Our police station doesn't have much entertainment, and even cars are not available for travel." No... by the way, the little Changan is here, but it's not convenient, and I'm afraid of thieves... Look..."
Needless to say, Yu Zui was looking at the village head, no, the village head's Land Rover was drooling, but Li Jiayuan glanced at Zhang Meng again, and threw the key to Zhang Meng. He caught it, turned around and kicked Zhang Meng and urged: "Thank you, village chief."
"Oh yes, thank you." Zhang Meng mechanically said.
"Use it, it's okay, there is a gas card in the car... Don't forget to come and play, I will stay for a few days before leaving." Li Jiayuan smiled sweetly, as if she was a little shy, and took the big white dog back to the township government, looking back from time to time With Zhang Meng. That look seems to be the same as Yu Zui's look at that Land Rover.
"Oh my god, with this encounter, your trip is worthwhile." Dong Shaojun rushed up and said enviously.
"This appearance is definitely a killer for lonely girls and hungry young women." Yu Zui squeezed Zhang Meng's bulging chest muscles and abdominal muscles back, and looked back, Zhang Meng stared at Yu Zui displeasedly, Yu Zui frightened After a jump, he asked strangely: "Brother, aren't you happy?"
"Don't make such a joke, I'm very serious about feelings." Zhang Meng froze, snatched the car keys, and went to drive the car. Dong Shaojun opened his eyes and said softly: "Is it really the legendary love at first sight?"
"It's possible, this child is still innocent, I guess it's his first love." Yu Zui said with a cheap smile. The two covered their mouths and laughed, Dong Shaojun turned around and carried the things, Yu Zui sat on the passenger seat with a grin, and the car roared and flew out of the town center village.
The township police station almost went out. The instructor Wang Bin had just discussed with the acting head of the township government. He looked a little worried when he saw the posture of the new head, because no matter how he looked at it, the head seemed to be messing around. He knows better than him the quality of the rural police officers in the station, and he also knows better than him the difficulty of catching a cattle thief in this mountainous area that stretches for hundreds of miles.
It was also in the township government office, on the second floor, in a room by the window. Li Jiayuan was holding her chin, looking at Zhang Meng who was driving. Why does that car look so handsome? She stared, but it was a kind of charming eyes.
On January 31, in Yangtouya Township, the cattle theft case, which later caused a sensation in the whole province, officially kicked off in the hands of several township policemen who hardly had the police quality...
