At around 9:30, Yi Chengjie, director of the Office of the Lanshan Public Security Bureau, came to Liu Qingyu's office and said with a smile on his face: "Director Liu, now that the bus is ready, now we can leave for the city funeral home." ”

Liu Qingyu nodded lightly, didn't say a word, followed Yi Chengjie downstairs, got on the bus, and went straight to the city funeral home.

On the bus, Liu Qingyu glanced around and found that there were less than 20 people on the bus that could accommodate 45 people, and only 3 of the 9 members of the Municipal Bureau Party Committee were on the bus, except for Liu Qingyu, and Cai Baoshan, the executive deputy director who called Liu Qingyu to ask if he was going to attend the funeral, was not on the bus.

Liu Qingyu frowned slightly, looked at Yi Chengjie and asked, "Comrade Yi Chengjie, why didn't I see Comrade Cai Baoshan get in the car? Where did he go?"

Yi Chengjie said: "Director Liu, that's the case, this morning, the municipal government notified Director Cai to have a meeting in the past, so although Director Cai originally planned to attend the funeral, but because the time was too unlucky, he could only temporarily postpone the time to attend the funeral, he said that if the meeting was over, if he could catch up with the funeral, it would pass, if he couldn't catch up, he could only regret it." ”

Liu Qingyu didn't ask any more when he heard this, but there was a little more doubt in his heart. It stands to reason that the city government should have notified the meeting in advance, and only notified the temporary meeting this morning, which is relatively rare, and in the case that he has officially taken office, it stands to reason that even if he wants to hold a meeting, he should first notify himself as the director of the city public security bureau, and he will assign someone to go over, but now, the city government has directly notified Cai Baoshan to go over, and there is no problem in this, Liu Qingyu absolutely does not believe it.

But Liu Qingyu didn't care about it. Because he knows that he is only a bare-bones commander in Lanshan City now, and the situation here is very complicated, if he wants to open up the situation, it is definitely not an overnight effort, many things, even if he is dissatisfied in his heart, must be suppressed for the time being, and wait until the situation in Lanshan City is clarified first.

On the bus, before Liu Qingyu got on the bus, everyone chatted enthusiastically, and the sounds of slapstick and laughter were endless, however, since Liu Qingyu got on the bus, the car was quiet all of a sudden, and everyone lowered their heads, or played with their mobile phones, or whispered, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

Liu Qingyu sat on the left side of the front of the bus, and didn't say much, just leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes.

The city funeral parlor is located in the western suburbs of Lanshan City. The bus drove for more than 20 minutes and arrived at the city funeral home.

Stepping off the bus, Liu Qingyu suddenly saw at a glance that a small group of people were gathering outside a farewell hall on the west side of the funeral home, there were about thirty or forty of these people, including more than 10 people in police uniforms, and more than 20 people in civilian clothes. The crowd gathered together in twos and threes, or exchanged heads, discussed, or looked left and right.

However, at the same time, Liu Qingyu also saw that outside the auditorium on the east side not far from this farewell hall, there was also a group of people gathered, but the farewell team of this group of people was much more majestic than the farewell team on the west side, this was a send-off team of more than 200 people, and the people in the entire team were all dressed in black suits, with white flowers pinned to their chests, and they were waiting silently in 3 neat columns. There was no noise or noise in this team, just waiting silently, and it seemed to be very organized and disciplined.

At this time, the heavy bell rang, and the doors of the two auditoriums slowly opened at the same time, and the send-off procession standing in front of the door slowly entered the auditorium.

At this time, Liu Qingyu and his party all got off the bus, and under the guidance of Yi Chengjie, they came to the farewell hall on the west side and walked in in line.

Looking at the direction of the entire team, Liu Qingyu's mood gradually became heavy. Because he always had a feeling that there seemed to be a small number of people attending the farewell ceremony of Officer Chen Tiancheng's body. In addition, there are only more than fifty people in their group, which is much less than the number of people compared to the send-off team opposite. It stands to reason that Chen Tiancheng is a policeman who has made outstanding contributions to the anti-drug cause in Lanshan City, and he is a martyr, and it stands to reason that under such circumstances, the Lanshan City Public Security Bureau should at least organize a huge farewell ceremony for the remains to show comfort to the souls of the martyrs. Only in this way can we truly show the importance that the city bureau attaches to the martyrs who sincerely sacrifice their lives for the cause of the police, and the city bureau attaches great importance to every police officer. After all, as public security officers, especially those who are struggling in the front line of fighting criminals in the fields of criminal police and anti-narcotics police, they are almost always fighting on the edge of life and death.

But now, the number of people in the send-off team for Chen Tiancheng's funeral this time is much beyond Liu Qingyu's imagination. Why on earth is this? Why are only so many people attending this funeral? Could it be true that yesterday's waiter at the guest house of the municipal party committee called Yang Qianqian said that there were people in Lanshan City who were on the underworld who let out wind and refused to let people come to attend the funeral? Could it be that the words of those people were so powerful that they could affect so many people?

Could it be that Cai Baoshan's absence is also related to these words?

For a moment, Liu Qingyu couldn't help but think about it.

With the send-off procession, Liu Qingyu walked into the funeral hall, and also saw the three people in the position of the family members.

All three family members are women. One was an old man of about seventy years of age, with a sallow face, withered appearance, and gray hair, the other was an ordinary-looking woman of about thirty-five or sixteen years old, with endless sorrow on her face, and a little girl who was only about four years old and had already cried into tears.

Seeing that the three of them kept bowing to the people who came to participate in the farewell ceremony under the reminder of the master of ceremonies, Liu Qingyu suddenly felt that something was touched deep in his heart. Especially when Liu Qingyu saw Chen Tiancheng, who was lying quietly on the coffin in a neat police uniform, with a calm and serene expression, Liu Qingyu suddenly felt a burst of colic in his heart.

Two drops of eyes slowly slid down the corners of the eyes.

Holding the fake flower in his hand and gently placing it beside Chen Tiancheng, he looked at Chen Tiancheng and muttered in his heart: "Comrade Chen Tiancheng, thank you for the sacrifice you have made for the people of Lanshan City, you can go with confidence, your relatives will not be helpless, the party and the government will solve the worries of your family, and your sacrifice will definitely not be counted like this, as the newly appointed director of the Public Security Bureau, I will definitely catch those murderers as soon as possible, let them accept the punishment of the law, avenge you, and appease your soul in heaven!"

Slowly walking to Chen Tiancheng's family, Liu Qingyu looked at Chen Tiancheng's mother and said slowly: "Old man, you and Rui Fen (Chen Tiancheng's wife) must mourn, don't cry and break your body, I am the new director Liu Qingyu, here, I promise you that our city bureau will definitely catch those murderers as soon as possible and bring them to justice." ”

Hearing Liu Qingyu say this, the little girl suddenly looked at Liu Qingyu angrily and said: "Uncle policeman, the murderer of my father is on the other side, do you really dare to arrest them? ”

Hearing the little girl's words, the woman hurriedly reached out and pulled the little girl to cover her mouth, and apologized to Liu Qingyu with tears in her eyes: "Director Liu, don't listen to her nonsense, the child is not sensible, don't blame her." ”

Liu Qingyu naturally didn't bother with the little girl, but what the little girl said was deeply imprinted in his heart, and at the same time, he had a strong interest in the group holding the funeral opposite.

Liu Qingyu bent down and squatted, looked directly at the little girl and asked, "Nannan, whether you believe it or not, uncle can promise you here that uncle will definitely catch those murderers who killed your father." No matter how powerful their background is, no matter how murderous they are, Uncle will definitely make them pay the price they deserve!"

At this moment, the woman also let go of the hand that was covering her daughter. The little girl looked at Liu Qingyu with a puzzled face and said, "Uncle, is what you said true?

Liu Qingyu shook his head: "No, my uncle is the director of the bureau, and he won't lie to people." ”

"Then let's pull the hook hook. Our kindergarten teacher said that you can't deceive people after pulling the hook. At this, the little girl gave her little finger deep.

Liu Qingyu also stretched out his little thumb and pulled the hook with the little girl.

Before the hook was over, the little girl cried again: "Woo woo, I won't be able to go to kindergarten again." The teacher doesn't want me anymore. ”

Hearing this, Liu Qingyu's face was stunned, and while taking out a tissue to help the little girl wipe her tears, he looked at the woman next to him and asked, "Comrade Ruifen, why did you say that?"

When Chen Tiancheng's wife Ma Ruifen heard this, her face also showed helplessness and anger, and she said with tears in her eyes: "It was the kindergarten teacher who informed us to take the nannan back, saying that the school would not accept the nannan. I begged them again and again, begging them to give me another month, and I would definitely pay the kindergarten fees, but the school refused. ”

When Liu Qingyu heard this, the anger in his heart suddenly appeared. Chen Tiancheng's bones are not cold, and now, his child was withdrawn from kindergarten, although from Ma Ruifen's words, Liu Qingyu heard that part of the factor was because of the problem of tuition fees, but Liu Qingyu believes that a normal kindergarten should take care of the children of a martyr, and will never directly kick the child out of school because of the delay in paying a month's tuition.

Thinking of this, Liu Qingyu did not hesitate at all, and said in a deep voice: "Comrade Ruifen, please rest assured that you and your family will leave the matter of going to school to me, and I promise that you can go to school tomorrow." ”

Hearing Liu Qingyu say this, the little girl's face showed a look of expectation, and her eyes were full of gratitude and anticipation to look at Liu Qingyu and said, "Uncle, can I really go to school again?"
