"This time, Officer Zhu really gave us a big face."

When the director Lao Cai was in the meeting, he smiled and said: "I called up and said that your investigation method is very innovative and interesting to everyone." As he said, he looked at Ali and smiled more and more. He said kindly: "Young man, I really have ideas and motivation, ha ha."

"Cai Bureau."

Xiao Chen seemed a little dissatisfied when he heard this, and cautiously said: "Sister Li admits defeat in person, we have all seen it."

Ali originally heard the praise from the leader, and a bit of pride appeared on her face. At this time, she heard Xiao Chen's words, her face sank with a hula, and gave Xiao Chen a ferocious look, and said: "We are just playing games. It’s not true that case-handling is not a game of reasoning, it’s just for everyone.

"I'm willing to lose the bet." Xiao Chen muttered. The colleague next to him had bad knowledge, so he stabs Xiao Chen a few times, so don't get froze with Ali.

Ali's face became more embarrassed when she heard this, she gritted her teeth and stared at Xiao Chen, suddenly thinking of something, turned her head to look at me, and smiled maliciously: "Sister Zhu, are we going to eat wedding candy? Unexpectedly, your relationship with Xiao Chen is so ironic?"

"Don't talk nonsense." When I heard this, I quickly clarified: "Xiao Chen has a girlfriend, and the relationship is very good."

"The relationship is very good?" Ali snorted: "The relationship is very good, and she is so determined to face you."

"What's this?" Xiao Chen heard this, as if he was angry, and said: "I hope you will lose the gambling, right? What you said on the spot, is it possible to not admit it? If you win at that time, what would you say? Now that you lose on the spot, it's a game? Don't bully people like that."

"Xiao Chen!" Seeing that the situation is not good, I hurriedly said, "Are you crazy? What are you talking about, one yard is one yard, what happened to this case, you have to tell the evidence."

"Yes, one yard goes to one yard, you have to admit it if you lose." Xiao Chen retorted aggressively without backing down.

"What do you want to recognize me?" Ali was completely angry, stood up, clenched her fist and shouted: "What do you want me to recognize?"

"Okay, okay, it's not worth arguing." The colleague next to him was not well informed, and quickly stood up to persuade him: "Why did you quarrel?"

"Xiao Chen, you are crazy." Seeing Xiao Chen like this, I finally panicked and said: "What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

You must know that this is in front of the director, and Ali's background is very strong, so arguing on the spot is very detrimental to Xiao Chen, and of course, it will not be good to me.

"I'm crazy?" Xiao Chen probably thought that I was using the words seriously. He patted the table and stood up and said: "This matter, I want to make it clear, Ali, you don't want to frame me and Zhu. Sister’s relationship, we are innocent, nothing happened. I just can’t get used to this habit. In the past few years, Zhu’s performance in the bureau is obvious to all. The promotion to deputy captain is a solid matter. It’s not for you. Now, the one on the left makes a bet, and another gives way. I have to force sister Zhu to give you this position. Is there any reason?"

"Little Chen!"

At this point, Cai Ju couldn't help it anymore. He patted the table with a "slap", stood up, and blushed and yelled, "You are crazy!"

As he was talking, suddenly, the door opened, and Xiao Song, the assistant director of the bureau, walked in and whispered a few words in Cai Ju's ear. Cai Ju's expression was uncertain.

"Sit down for me, Xiao Chen." I took advantage of this time and hurried over to pull Xiao Chen over and whispered: "You are crazy, you don't give the leader face."

"But they are too bullying. Sister Zhu, do you have the heart to give up your years of hard work?" Xiao Chen was full of dissatisfaction.

"Nor." I shook my head, pursed my lips and smiled, and said in a low voice: "Some things are not that simple. Don't talk."

As I was talking, I heard Cai Ju’s speech suddenly, and his tone became more relaxed: "Well, I won’t say it in advance. All in all, this game is still very meaningful, it can demonstrate our police level and professional ability, but very Obviously, it was Officer Zhu who won."

"Hey—" Ali heard this, she wrinkled her eyebrows, she was about to speak, but Cai Ju gave a fierce look and waved her hand. That means you don't interrupt, pause, and look at me. A little smile appeared on his face: "Xiao Zhu, you have done a good job."

"Hahaha, it's nothing." I respectfully said: "It's all leaders who make wise decisions, oh, and also, Xiao Chen was too impulsive just now, don't be offended by Cai Ju."

"How come." Cai Ju waved his hand and looked at Xiao Chen with a smile, squeezing a smile on his wrinkled face: "Mao Tau boy, understandable. Ha ha ha."

Xiao Chen didn't expect Cai Ju to be so generous. He gaped for a long time. Everyone laughed at the venue, but I stared at Xiao Song behind Cai Ju. Xiao Song was a young man with a white face and black borders. The glasses, because the power is too high, so I can't see the eyes clearly, only the flashing light, right now, looking at me, Bai Sensen's teeth, smile...

The infant murder case is actually not a difficult case to handle. However, because of the power struggle of the deputy sheriff, it has become complicated. Although the organizer of the case is me, Ali wants to rob him in order to avoid suspicion. , I had to go to another case first, and just like that for a few days, the leader suddenly called me to the office and told me—

"Xiao Zhu, let me tell you the good news. Your appointment will be down soon. It will be officially announced tomorrow. Then everyone will participate. How about you? Are you happy?" Cai Ju took out a cigarette and hit the table. Looking at me with a grin.

"Okay." I stood there quietly, lowered my eyes, and nodded.

"Why? It looks like you are unhappy?" Cai Ju blew out the smoke and looked at me suspiciously.

"No, no, haha." I waved my hand and said with a smile: "I'm very happy, because I'm too happy, so it's not easy to show it, haha."

"Well, that's it." Cai Ju stared at me with scrutinizing eyes, and nodded for a while, "Go ahead."

I nodded, turned around and walked to the door. I suddenly remembered something, and then asked, "Cai Ju, what happened to the baby murder case?"

"Ah, aren't you and Ali looking up?" Cai Ju seemed surprised that I would ask.

"Oh, nothing." I grinned, opened the door and walked out. After going out, I saw Xiao Chen standing at the end of the corridor and beckoning to me.

"What's the matter? Xiao Chen?" I asked.

"I heard that your appointment has come down, and the official meeting will be announced tomorrow." Xiao Chen was full of excitement and patted his hand: "How about it, Sister Zhu, the so-called hard work pays off. This position should be yours, or you. of."

"I see." I patted Xiao Chen on the shoulder and smiled: "Thank you so much."

"What? Sister Zhu, why are you upset?" Xiao Chen scratched his head and asked in confusion, "We are all waiting to celebrate for you."

"Oh. It's nothing." I blinked and squinted at Xiao Chen's back. Ali was coming out of Cai Ju's door. When she saw us, she was taken aback, and suddenly raised her eyebrows, showing a meaningful smile. , I also laughed.

The next day, in the large conference hall of the bureau, Cai Bureau coughed after finishing the meeting and finally concluded, "There is one thing left today, and that is the appointment of the deputy sheriff. Everyone knows. Classmate Zhu Yuan has done countless merits over the years. A few days ago, she even made a marvellous deed in front of the media. He exposed the murderer of the infant murder case on the spot and gave us the police officer's face, so it is well deserved. Now I declare..."

Before the voice fell, I suddenly heard someone say below: "Cai Ju."

When everyone heard this, they followed the voice and saw Ali stood up from her seat, holding a stack of documents in her hand, and raised her hand at us: "Cai Ju, I won’t talk about the others, after all, Zhu My sister has been in the bureau for so many years, no credit and hard work, but about this baby's case..." She pursed her lips and said, "Sorry, she judged the case in public. The difference is far away."

"Om—"

Everyone was in an uproar, whispering and talking.

"What do you mean? Sister Ali, what are you talking about?" Xiao Chen yelled, "Could it be that Sister Zhu was wrong?"

"No." Ali's tone was very determined, and nodded: "The murderer is not the adulterer, nor the eldest son, but the hostess Li Fang."

"Om—"

The crowd was in an uproar again.

"What the hell is going on?" When Cai Ju heard this, his face became dark and he put down his appointment and frowned, "What the hell do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is that the last murderer was the hostess Li Fang. This is evidence provided by the autopsy report and the Trace Department, and Li Fang himself has admitted that she killed her own child by herself."

"How is it possible?" someone said: "This is unreasonable."

"It's not unreasonable." Ali shrugged and raised the document in her hand. "She explained that the child is not her husband's, but she and the adulterer. The adulterer threatened her with a child to divorce and talked to him. Together, she couldn’t help it. Then she thought of killing the child. By the way, there was also a motive for killing. The child had severe asthma. It was very troublesome to take care of her at ordinary times. It involved a large part of her energy. It was because of this. The reason is that she is impatient with the child, and that's why she has a murderous intent."

"Just because of this? Unreasonable, right?" Xiao Chen kept shaking his head; "Isn't this woman insane?"

"That's right." Another said: "Then how to explain the loophole in the testimony of the eldest son that Sister Zhu put forward at the time?"

"The loophole is because her son saw her crimes that night and wanted to hide the crimes for his mother, so he lied. Later, she found out in conscience and took the initiative to confess the facts of the crime." Seeing so many people questioning, Ali seemed a little impatient. , Slammed the file in his hand and said: "Don't chase me and ask, the evidence speaks."

When Cai Ju heard this, he looked at the Forensic Medicine Department and the Trace Department, but saw the person in charge stood up and said: "We testified, it is true. At that time, there were only Li Fang's fingerprints and footprints in the nursery, and there was no other person at all. of."

"Nobody's, only Li Fang's?" I snapped in.
