next morning.
As soon as Bai Jin Xi stepped into the training classroom that can accommodate more than 100 people, she felt something was wrong.
The students who have arrived are sitting up straight, and their police uniforms look very straight. In the back row, there are a few people who usually do not study well, flipping through the books frantically, as if they are temporarily holding Buddha's feet. In front of the podium, several training teachers also wore police uniforms today, talking in a low voice, and the atmosphere seemed very serious. Beside them, there are still a few vacancies left.
And just above their heads, a banner hung: "Welcome to the leaders of the Provincial Criminal Police Brigade and colleagues to come and guide."
Jin Xi and Xiao Zhuan looked at each other, sat down in the last row, and asked a student next to him who was reading a book with a frown, "Dude, what's going on? Isn't today an exam and graduation ceremony? Why are you welcoming the leaders of the Provincial Criminal Police Force?"
The dear friend replied: "Don't you know? Although it has not been published publicly before, everyone knows that there will be a selection on the last day of this training. The Provincial Criminal Police Team will soon set up a 'Black Shield Team', which will be responsible for serial cases. And major case detection. One of the purposes of this training is to select people for this team across the province. Why don't I come here? People go to high places and water flows to low places. I rely on it, criminal psychology Why is it so long-winded, I can't remember..."
Jin Xi and Xiao Zhuan were stunned at the same time and looked at each other.
After a little thought, you will understand. I heard that the provincial bureau has always been thirsty for talents, and it is very hard to search for talents. Could it be that the deputy director played a careful trick? The two of them were asked to attend the training temporarily, and the purpose was not explained. The director also happily sent her and Xiao Zhuan over. And the two of them are rather stubborn. They are dedicated to fighting for the top spot in the training. They are in competition with others, and they are not familiar with each other. Naturally, no one has promoted them.
No wonder Han Chen looked at her with those eyes when talking about training last night - did he think she was here for their group
The leaders have not arrived yet, and the atmosphere around is still tense, quiet and serious.
Bai Jin Xi unscrewed the mineral water bottle, took a sip, took another sip, and kept drinking. Xiao Zhuan looked at her: "Are you nervous?"
"Um."
Xiao Zhuan held his chin in his hand, and was very quiet.
Jin Xi asks, "What are you thinking about?"
Xiao Zhuan replied, "I'm struggling, whether to go or not."
"Me too."
If I drink too much water, I want to go to the toilet. Before the meeting started, Jin Xi got up and went out through the back door.
Outside the venue is a corridor, with training classrooms on both sides. The lights are bright, Bai Jin Xi puts her hands in her trouser pockets and walks absentmindedly. The toilet was at the corner of the stairs, but as soon as she reached the entrance of the stairs, she saw Han Chen alone, with his hands in his trouser pockets, and came up. Hearing the movement, he looked up at her.
He was also wearing a police uniform today, with black eyes showing under the brim of his hat, looking at her calmly.
Bai Jin Xi watches him approach.
she feels...
She decided to participate in the selection.
"Why didn't you tell me yesterday that I was going to be selected today?" she said, "Xiao Zhuan and I were not mentally prepared at all."
Han Chen stood still at the entrance of the stairs, and without answering, asked, "What are your plans?"
"Try it." She answered lightly.
Han Chen didn't have any expression on his face either, he was about to walk in past her, Jin Xi grabbed his arm.
Of course, it was released again immediately.
"Are you also a member of the group?" she asked.
He glanced at her: "Yes."
Jin Xi smiled slightly: "Then, as an insider, can you tell us in advance, how difficult is this team's work? Who is the leader? Is it the deputy bureau or Captain Qin? Will it be very strict, will it be good for them to get along? By the way, do you think I have much hope?"
He was originally facing her sideways. After listening to her, he suddenly turned around and took a step forward: "Why are there so many questions?"
The distance between the two immediately approached, and Jin Xi subconsciously took a step back.
He looked down at her: "Bai Jin Xi, career choice and transfer are no joke. Don't let anyone or anything affect your judgment."
Jin Xi was stunned for a moment.
Anyone and anything? Is this implying something to her
She was silent for a few seconds and replied, "I'm not joking. On the contrary, I'm thinking about this matter very seriously. I want to join the special case investigation team, not for promotion or high salary. I want to join because For serial cases, criminal psychology can play the most critical role." She paused and said, "I want to use my expertise to do more things, help more people, and learn more."
Han Chen looked at her and said nothing.
However, Jin Xi changed the topic and added, "But, people are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not get stabbed. It's only natural for me to ask you those questions just now. Of course, you must first find out what the leader likes. Whether the environment is good or not. I can't let my good seedling be buried..."
As he spoke, he shut his mouth. Because Han Chen laughed.
He was already eye-catching in his police uniform, and with this smile, the outline of his eyebrows was even more clear and moving.
"How can there be a woman like you?" He turned away in a slow voice.
Jin Xi pursed her lips and followed, the meeting time is coming.
Suddenly, a hand reached out and pressed the brim of her hat down, almost blocking her eyes.
"Wear the hat low and the hair around your ears up. Don't laugh during the interview."
Bai Jin Xi held up the brim of her hat and asked inexplicably, "Why?"
"The chance of success is higher." He put his hands back in his pockets, pushed the door and walked in.
—
As soon as Bai Jin Xi returned to his seat and sat down, the meeting started.
The training director first gave a brief speech, and then introduced the people present from the Criminal Police Team today. Led by the captain Qin Wenlong, a total of four people came. Han Chen sat next to Qin Wenlong, like the number two person.
Unlike Qin Wenlong's full smile, Han Chen's expression was always light, and the brim of his hat was a little low, like a beautiful sculpture.
Next, Qin Wenlong introduced the original intention and requirements for the establishment of the special case investigation team.
He was a handsome man of thirty-four or five years old, tall and eagle-eyed. Putting his hands on the table, he smiled and said, "This investigation team was set up by my strong request from my superiors. It is a bold attempt and an experiment. I personally serve as the team leader, but the daily specific work is handled by the deputy team leader. Han Chen is in charge. I think you have all heard of Han Chen, so there is no need to introduce him."
All eyes were on Han Chen.
Beside Zhou Xiaozhuan, the squeamish brother just now whispered again: "Damn it! It's actually Han Chen, the uncrowned king of the criminal police, Han Chen. It's not exhausting to work under him! But what can I do, who? Call this the place where the elites of the province want to go! Die or die!"
Xiao Zhuan was also a little excited, and grabbed Jin Xi's arm: "Han Shen is the deputy team leader!"
Jin Xi patted his hand, feeling a little complicated.
His immediate boss was actually him.
She also asked him just now, what are the leaders' preferences and whether it is good to hang out.
Qin Wenlong announced the selection process again: a comprehensive written test in the morning and an interview in the afternoon. He, Han Chen and the training director were interviewers. He didn't talk too much, and immediately began to organize the written test.
—
afternoon.
Jin Xi sits in the corridor, clasping her hands on her knees. Next to her was Xiao Zhuan, who was sitting even straighter than her and looked more nervous.
The morning written test has ended, and they both performed well in the test. Because the grades usually rank first or second, the interview was instead arranged in the last two. Jin Xi is the second last, Xiao Zhuan is the last.
Seeing the people in front of them come out one by one, some looked frustrated and some looked excited. As the sun went down a little, there were fewer and fewer people around them.
"Bai Jin Xi." Someone walked out of the interview room and called her name.
"Here!" Jin Xi took a deep breath, stood up, and supported the brim of her hat. Suddenly remembering Han Chen's words, he lowered his head and asked Xiao Zhuan, "Why do I have to lower my hat and comb my hair when I'm interviewing, and then it's better not to laugh?"
She couldn't figure out this question, but Xiao Zhuan thought about it and actually caught it: "Because she looks more like a woman from a good family? Not so demonic?"
Jin Xi chuckled, "Fuck you!" She raised her head and strode in.
This is a relatively small room. As soon as Jin Xi walked in, she saw the three people sitting upright behind a long table, each with cigarettes in their hands, and the room was filled with smoke.
Seeing her walk in, all three of them looked over. Jin Xi also looked over politely, nodding in greeting. When they arrived at Han Chen, the two of them looked at each other wrongly and moved away without a trace.
Jin Xi sits down in the middle chair: "Good leader! I'm Bai Jin Xi, a police officer from Guanhu Police Station."
Except for Han Chen, Qin Wenlong and the training director all laughed. The training director bowed his head and said, "This is the talent that the deputy director told me to focus on inspection." The voice was not loud, but Jin Xi heard it too, and her heart was secretly delighted.
Qin Wenlong took a breath, flipped through the documents, and asked, "Bai Jinxi, why do you want to join the Black Shield team?"
Jin Xi was silent for a moment, then replied, "Utilize my strengths to uphold fairness and justice. Make the most vicious criminals subdue the law, and let more innocent people be protected."
Qin Wenlong and the director both laughed. I think it's very interesting that such a beautiful woman is so capable, decisive and sonorous.
Qin Wenlong asked a few more questions, and Jin Xi answered them one by one. She has no fancy words, and her answers are simple and concise, but her attitude is always very focused and serious.
"I'm done asking." Qin Wenlong turned his head to look at Han Chen, "Do you have any questions? This will be yours from now on."
Jin Xi's heart trembled, and she also looked at him.
When she was answering the question just now, he remained silent, and Jin Xi didn't look at him.
Han Chen raised his head and looked at her.
Then…
Reaching out, he opened the notebook in front of him, lowered his head, and turned the pages one by one, his eyes stern.
Jin Xi keeps smiling and looks at him, but she seems to have knocked over a seasoning bottle in her heart.
I really plan to ask questions to test her! Still looking at it so seriously, it seems that you don't plan to release water
"I'm fine." The deep voice sounded, he closed the notebook and looked at her indifferently.
Qin Wenlong and the training director both smiled.
Jin Xi's heart was suddenly relieved.
Really... bastard, deliberately scare her.
"You go back and wait for the notice first, but prepare in advance. You will be transferred to the provincial bureau as soon as next week." Qin Wenlong said.
—
After Jin Xi came out, it was Xiao Zhuan's turn to go in. When the two passed by by mistake, they slapped their hands in the air, and needless to say anything else.
There was no one in the corridor by this time. Jin Xi walks to the window, rests her hands on her hands, and lets out a long sigh of relief.
There was the sound of a door opening from behind, followed by footsteps.
Jin Xi turns her head and sees Han Chen pulling out a cigarette in his mouth and walking towards her.
"Hmph..." Jin Xi turned her head to look out the window, "Why did you scare me just now?"
Han Chen stood by the window, took off his hat, buckled it in his hand, and quietly smoked a cigarette without answering.
"You and Zhou Xiaozhuan can only keep one."
Jin Xi turns her head suddenly.
On his white side face, his eyes were dark, and he couldn't see the expression.
"You are the same," he added.
Jin Xi's heart sank, suddenly tangled and sad.
She thought silently for a while, then said, "Let's keep Xiao Zhuan, this opportunity is better..."
But she saw Han Chen staring at her for a moment.
"Just kidding," he said softly. "Don't take it seriously."
Jin Xi: "...you!"
He closed his eyes slightly, with a faint smile on his face, with a cigarette in his mouth, he pushed the door and went in again.
Jin Xi angrily looks at his back, thinks about it, and then smiles.
Turn around and look out the window again.
In the distance, the setting sun shines on the Yangtze River, the river surface is vast and vast, the river wheel whistles passing by, and the birds are singing crisply. At this moment, what she was thinking about was not the bad past, not the unresolved future; not the man in her dream who made her toss and turn, nor the Han Chen who made her unpredictable.
She thinks about the future.
She thought that she might be able to go to a bigger stage and chase more meaningful dreams. She still has a long life.
Bai Jin Xi, do your best every day to make your life more beautiful.
