a week later...
It was another gray morning, and when Yu Zui opened the curtains, he realized that it was raining, and the light rain covered a vast expanse of whiteness over the city, like the frost and rime in winter in the north. This season is still extremely cold, but here, the air is very humid and stuffy.
It’s been a week since I’ve been out, I’m surprised, I want to see someone, but I can’t see anyone. But the mouse that I don’t want to see hangs around you every day, eats and plays every day, and visits the countless places of interest in Guangzhou. I don’t want to go out to play, so I do recovery training in the hotel gym. People who are used to staying in the police academy are more or less addicted to exercise. Diet, exercise, and a few sunbaths, the problems that bred in the dark prison cell have long since disappeared from him.
He looked at the street scene in the rain outside the window obsessively. Many times, a strange feeling would rise in his heart, as if he was in a world that did not belong to him. Sometimes he even misses the naked and bare-backed free world in the prison. He is naked and does not need to wear a thick mask like the outside world.
For example, now he feels that he is wearing it, and he really wants to see those people who send him in for a purpose, but he still pretends to be indifferent, scaring the mouse to go back to Shanxi, and making the mouse nervous every day, just talking about it and comforting him ;In fact, he really wanted to put on that police uniform and wear the epaulettes of the third-level superintendent, because he felt that his efforts should be exchanged for this kind of reward, but he just pretended that everything didn't matter, and he didn't want to be a policeman at all.
He struggled sometimes. The police officers at the police station and the prison guards at the detention center didn't give him a very good impression, except for scolding and kicking. However, it is undeniable that it is like all those who criticize civil servants for a vegetarian meal and at the same time squeeze their heads to take the public examination. In fact, everyone wants to be a privileged class with a license, not a victim who is beaten and kicked.
Damn, why are you leaving me alone
Why wait so long
What exactly do they want to do next
Who will be the target in the prison
A series of questions lingered in his mind again. The mission started in a muddle and ended in a muddle. Apart from mastering the whole behind-the-scenes, I am afraid that he, as a pawn, will not be able to get a glimpse of the overall situation for a while. Originally, he thought that after he came out, he would be watched by the officials of the provincial department, asking about the situation inside and the situation of the target in detail. But he was wrong, he didn't ask anything, it was like a simple task that allowed him to survive in the prison for a while, now only the mouse is left to accompany him.
"Yes, is the mouse hiding something from me?"
With this in mind, Yu Zui opened the window, turned around and folded the quilt, and went out. When he knocked on the door of the next room, he heard strange music in the room. After careful identification, it was the sound of cats and mice. After so many years, this guy’s appreciation level has not improved much. When he knocked on the door, after a while, Brother Biao, who was wearing big pants, opened the door, and hurried back to look at his voice. It's cat and mouse.
Yu Zui pressed the TV directly, got up from the bed and stared at the mouse, sat down on the edge of the bed, pulled his fat face unceremoniously, and stared tit for tat, as if to see if this kid was out of luck.
But in this kind of situation, the mouse generally can't bear the rest of the crime, not to mention that Yu'er's scum temperament has already formed. As soon as he withered, he started again: "Yu'er, don't scare me? I really don't know. Tell me to accompany you to eat, play, resume exercise, etc., I really don't know the rest."
"With your virtue, you don't know anything. Well, the mouse... You came to Guangzhou, did you see a little girl?" Yu Zui asked, changed the subject, and after thinking about it, he probably knew and couldn't get it out of this bastard's mouth. come out.
But when he asked about Brother Mouse's sadness, his eyelids drooped, and bitterness came: "... I didn't see her, and I slipped out to find her the next day. The rented place was empty, and I wanted to go to her hometown to find her again Can't get away... Her previous mobile phone was shut down again, hey, I said it was his mother, a one-night couple with a hundred days of grace, you said we had sex for a long time, no matter how I left, she disappeared... "
Brother Mouse is really frustrated, and he seems to have really moved a little bit towards Little Girl, but he missed the mission, and if he didn't find it, there would be a lot of hysterical speculation and speculation, until he guessed that he didn't dare to think about it.
why? Maybe that's the way it is in society, when a dewy couple is together, you care, but others don't.
But Yu Zui didn't come to comfort him, he smiled and asked, "Brother Biao, does the organization know about your affair?"
"Nonsense, dare I say it?" the mouse grinned.
"It doesn't matter if you don't dare, let me tell you later." Yu Zui said lightly, the mouse was stimulated, and he squinted and shouted: "You dare?"
"Do you think I dare not? I will report to Xu Chu later that there is a serious problem with your life style. During your mission in Guangzhou, you not only defrauded tens of thousands of money, but also seduced a good family who was less than 18 years old. The girl, what's even more hateful, is still recklessly abandoning her. What's even more hateful is that she has no intention of confessing to the organization at all." Yu Zui emphasized his tone, pointing his fingers at the mouse, which rolled his eyes, and said disdainfully: "We are brothers. The two are like dicks, like a bird, don't talk about anyone, as if you have done something good."
"Yeah, I didn't do anything good, but I've been in jail long ago, what about you? You have to deal with this problem in the eyes of the leaders. It's a serious problem. It's a serious ideological problem. I want to wear a police uniform. , It's over." Yu Zui said.
"You... what do you want to do? I've been with you for the past few days, and I just went to bed with you. What else do you want?" The mouse understood that Yu Zui's threat must be something, and as expected, Yu Zui smiled wickedly. Sitting on the edge of the bed with his arms around him, he asked in a low voice: "I don't want to do anything? I just want to know, what will happen to me next? Get some exposure, brother Biao, if you don't, be careful that I will reveal your affairs... If you are not convinced, just put on the police uniform, I am now a third-level superintendent, and it is not easy to clean up your intern Ermao party?"
Playing hard and soft, Brother Mouse stopped him from asking. Just as he was about to speak, Yu Zui warned again: "Don't make excuses, I don't believe you, you didn't report to some people behind my back."
"This... this..." The mouse's face stretched even longer, and its embarrassment became more serious. Needless to say, it must be reported. There is no need to guess, there must be some kind of destination, Xu Pingqiu is nothing more than using such a crooked dog friend to tie Yu Zui, and Yu Zui has already considered this point. He was impolite, and tugged on the mouse's ear and asked, "Is Xu Pingqiu still in Guangzhou?"
"Yes." The mouse stopped lying, nodded and said with embarrassment. Yu Zui gave this guy a light slap and reprimanded him: "I know you kid coaxing me. Let me ask you again, how many people came here."
"Just the two of us." Mouse said.
"Who else have you seen?" Yu Zui asked again, feeling a little more embarrassed, Yu Zui pinched his nose, and the mouse complained incessantly: "No one, just those few people, I can't name them, he won't let me and those people contact with people."
"Who?" Yu Zui asked.
"That's it..." the mouse said hesitantly, the phone rang suddenly, he broke free, and said "Let's answer the phone" as if flattering, he avoided the side and continued the call, answered a few times, glanced at Yu Zui, and waited for the button When he got off the phone, he smiled and said to Yu Zui as if he was relieved from a heavy burden: "There is no need for interrogation, I will take you there."
"Just take me there? Cut." Yu Zui said disdainfully.
"Yu'er, you just went to prison, didn't you go to the Interpol headquarters, let's not make such a big show? Damn, I would have gone if I knew I would be promoted to the third-level superintendent. It's your turn, shit, I’m still a 2-Mao party now, and I’ve been scolded here and there…”
The mouse was a little angry, complaining, wearing clothes, and keeping his trousers up, but he couldn't put on airs even if he wanted to put on airs because of his virtue. The two followed each other out of the armed police guest house where they lived for a week, and came to the meeting place. .
…
The meeting place was at the Coal Building. This hotel was invested and constructed by the Shanxi Provincial Coal Department. Every year, the coal trade between the north and the south is here, and Yu Zui has heard about it. The building has been built for a long time, and all you see when you enter the door are some outdated decorations. The corridors, elevators, and walls all look a little old. Yu Zui was thinking, this is also in line with the choice of the place where the out-of-province criminal police handle the case. It is not only hidden, but also can save a lot of money, and most of the northerners come and go here, so they don't attract attention.
The meeting place is on the top floor, and the entire corridor is sealed off, with the name of the Coal Inspection and Research Office on it, which is a bit nondescript, but the guards are very strict, and there is a newspaper reader standing at the door, and you can tell that this is a person with Yu Zui's eyes. plainclothes.
It's very simple, except for those who are well-trained, no one can hold the newspaper full of advertisements and read it intently.
He didn't stop the two of them, and the mouse led the way. When he got to the two sides, he knocked on the room of 1706. When the voice sounded from inside, he opened the doorknob. He followed the future third-level superintendent in.
The mouse was executing the order, and he didn't mind it. Yu Zui stepped forward, the mouse behind him closed the door, and guarded the door according to the order. In fact, he is also slandering, why don't good things happen to us? Those who can get their turn are either escorts or caregivers, and now there is another item added, the gatekeeper.
The moment Yu Zui entered the door, Yu Zui was stunned. Xu Pingqiu, who was dressed in a police uniform, was sitting impressively. There was an exquisite box on the table in front of him. He was knocking on the box with his fingers rhythmically. The expression of all mental activities, that face, like a wax figure, like a clay sculpture, just look at it like that.
"Sit down, it's so quiet, I thought you would have a more intense performance." Xu Pingqiu gestured to the seat opposite. This room, like the office space of a leather bag company, has nothing but tables and sofas. Yu Zui sat across from him without saying a word. In fact, he had thought about the scene of meeting countless times in the prison.
It was a very intense scene, I thought about kicking his crotch, and then stepped on a few times viciously; I thought about punching his face, and then spit a few times viciously. But when he actually faced it, Yu Zui found that he lacked a little courage. The excitement of being released from prison, the hope brought by his promotion, and the expectation of the next situation made him hesitate... If you have nothing, no one will not give a damn about. But if it is not for nothing, it will make people lack the courage to never turn back.
"Welcome back." Xu Pingqiu said politely, and went to take out a cigarette as usual. He was a little hard to say what to say, but he forgot that he had made up his mind to quit smoking. He didn't take out a cigarette. He was stunned, but Yu Zui took out a cigarette instead. Here it comes, knocking on the mouth and picking it up, skillfully pointing it out, and sending one to Old Xu without saying a word. Xu Pingqiu suppressed his addiction to smoking, and said with a smile: "You look handsome when you smoke, so I won't persuade you to quit."
There was no reply, Yu Zui didn't answer, squinting, not like a superior and a subordinate, but like a pair of opponents in a decisive battle.
Xu Pingqiu smiled, organized his thoughts, and said after a while: "I know you have resentment in your heart, if I have a way to calm your resentment, I will do it at all costs. I know, after you have seen many ugly sides After that, there will be a lot of doubts, and even the most steadfast fighters will probably be shaken. Can you tell me, what is your most intuitive view on the police and criminals, these two groups who are in the same situation?"
"One is hypocritical so-called justice, and the other is naked shamelessness and crime." Yu Zui spoke, and what instantly appeared in his mind was the treatment of an ordinary "suspect" at the police station and detention center. He pinched his cigarette , unexpectedly calmly judged: "In comparison, I appreciate the latter."
Xu Pingqiu's teeth clicked. This is the most worrying side effect. It still happened. There have been hostages who have been hijacked and gangsters together against the police. There have also been incidents where criminal police have degenerated into criminals. This assimilation effect is far greater than belief and binding responsibilities. He considered his tone and said: "Very good, at least this will make me feel less guilty."
"Really, why didn't I see that you felt guilty?" Yu Zui mocked.
Xu Pingqiu laughed. He slowly held a mobile phone, fiddled with it, and talked casually, as if it was an irrelevant matter. Just listen to him:
"Now I can give you the bottom line. The so-called elite selection is to select a person who can walk among the scum, and I don't want to choose the police who are serving. They have too much institutional smell to escape the eyes of some people. ;I also don’t want to use the hidden field work of the Ministry of Finance, because there are too many traces on them, and the story is not easy to make up... "
"So, you are looking for a thief with a clean resume and few stories to train to become a scumbag?" Yu Zui asked rhetorically.
"Frankly speaking, I didn't train you, it's because your talent is too good." Xu Pingqiu said bluntly, staring at Yu Zui, Yu Zui was inexplicably guilty, and all of a sudden his righteous questioning disappeared without a trace , it seems that he is really a suspect to be punished.
"Single-parent family, lack of maternal love, so your character has a tyrannical element. Someone visited your elementary school teacher. It is said that when you were young, you changed schools twice because of fighting, and went to junior high school three times. One of them was because of protection fees. Right? In high school, there seems to be no bad deeds, but I believe it must have been concealed... I have seen your report card, and you passed 90% in English, and you were more than 30 points away from passing the most recent time; the police academy expanded its enrollment You must have spent a lot of money on the number of places, right? Your ability to go to the police academy in this situation really shows that there is a big problem with the current education system." Xu Pingqiu said in a teasing tone, as if he was exposing the bottom line, exposing the remaining crimes without face Yes.
Yu Zui laughed, he didn't know why he laughed, but he just laughed, thinking about spending tens of thousands of dollars to go to the police academy, but he didn't get anything, he bought back a bunch of crimes, this is really a joke in the world .
"Your life in the police academy is pretty good. Gambling, drinking, fighting, not only playing by yourself, but also getting together with like-minded people, right? As for how the exam passed, I'm not interested, but it must have put a lot of thought into it. "Xu Pingqiu said, picking up Yu Zui's embarrassment, it seems that he has dug out the old bottom, at this time he has adjusted the phone to what he needs, he opened it, put it in front of Yu Zui, still smiling and said: " The reason why I brought all of you to a strange city for a penniless training is that I actually wanted to find someone who dared to flout the rules. Facts have proved that I was right, most of you dare, but It's you who did the best."
Yu Zui didn't know the praise or criticism of this remark, but when he saw the images on his mobile phone, his heart sank to a low point. It was snatching those who knocked on the window glass on the railway station road, arresting the thief at the airport, and arresting the thief in the car. In the picture of negotiating money with the boss for car repair, he suddenly understood that everything he did for himself was under the control of the helmsman. At this moment, he also understood that the selection of the so-called elites was not the elites of the police academy, but the best of the scum.
Unfortunately, he won the bid!
At this time, a kind of complicated and indescribable emotion was disturbing Yu Zui, these things were enough to send him to prison, but it was not because of these things that he was sent to prison, which made his psychology have a certain order The extra balance seems to be a kind of resentful gratitude. This strange feeling made him snort and smile, similar to a very proud smile.
"Very good. I like you, a person with strong mental endurance. Then I will get straight to the point. Do you want to accept the direct command of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Provincial Department and become a registered special agent?" Xu Pingqiu put away the phone, Go straight to the point. Every time when recruiting special agents, you will encounter resistance of one kind or another, mainly from yourself, which is difficult for ordinary people to accept, of course, except for those who are very nervous.
This is a proposition that has already been deduced, but it still makes Yu Zui unable to make a decision all at once. He took out the cigarette case again, and subconsciously took one in his mouth. After lighting the fire for him, he turned his face sideways, pouted his mouth, and took a deep breath at the fire, the lingering smoke almost fascinated his eyes.
At this time, he thought of those magnanimous and shameless scum faces in the prison. Whenever he smoked, someone would always gather around, take a puff of second-hand smoke, and then say intoxicatedly: Comfortable! Perhaps it was due to emotional factors, he seemed unable to accept those people as his opponents all of a sudden. But is there an emotional component to this
His heart was still as confused as his eyes. This trip to the prison almost overturned the boundary between police and gangsters in his mind. He even had an urge to leave everything behind and go back to Fenxi City, where there is no dispute with the world. Even if I live the life of my father who cuts and shrinks the money, even if I quarrel with the old ladies and daughters-in-law every day about a few dollars and a few cents.
To accept, or to reject
No matter which choice he chooses, Yu Zui feels that he will regret it.
The smoky room was so quiet that you could hear the breathing of two people, but after a long time, there was still only the sound of breathing. Yu Zui didn't accept or refuse, just looked at it so complicatedly, as if he wanted to see through Xu Pingqiu...
