213. A little mouse in the sewer

There are a total of 12 pieces of information about the 'little calf', the most recent of which was a year ago.

In addition to the title of 'little calf', there is no ID number, no age information, and no contact information for the guardian.

There are all kinds of criminal convictions for rummaging through the little calf, stealing, snatching bags, smashing car glass, unloading car wheels, and all the crimes basically occurred near subway stations and train stations, but there is no record of being detained.

"It should be a black household, and it should have been an underage when it was dealt with before. ”

Huo Zhiyong looked at the photo on the case, it was an obviously childish face, smiling very happily at the camera, greasy to curly long hair, big eyes rarely clear, but the face was sallow and brown, and a mouthful of fine teeth were blackened by smoke.

Early the next morning, the task force found Chen Xiao, a policeman who had handled the calf many times, at the South Railway Station Police Station.

Lao Chen has been working for almost 20 years, with a square face, short haircuts, and a pair of glasses, smiling at everyone.

Huo Zhiyong handed the screenshot photo of the little calf in the surveillance to Lao Chen, Lao Chen took it and only glanced at it, then shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, "Isn't this a little calf." ”

"What's the matter with him? Why doesn't he even have a name? Can you tell us about the details of this little calf?" asked Tang Gaoyuan, taking the photo that Lao Chen handed back.

"How can I say it, he came out a few years ago to 'mix the rivers and lakes', and at that time he looked like he was in the sixth or seventh grade, black and thin. ”

Lao Chen sighed, "The first time I saw him was five years ago, when I was in the toilet of the train station, and a cleaning lady said that a few big men in the Northeast beat a child to death.

I hurriedly took people over, and when I arrived at the place, I saw the little calf getting up from the ground with a bloody face, little man, my child and his age were the fifth to the bottom of the exam, and I have never been so miserable.

We took him to the hospital, he was beaten like that and didn't say a word, I asked him if you reported to the police, I went to find those people for you, he said no, this is because he is not good at learning, they have rules in the industry, and they deserve to be beaten no matter how they are caught doing things. ”

Everyone sat in Lao Chen's office, quietly listening to Lao Chen talk about the little calf's past, "Maybe we took him to see a doctor, and he thought we were still good, and he started talking about it."

It wasn't until this time that I knew that this eleven or twelve-year-old little guy was a thief who specialized in rummaging through people's luggage in the train station, and he had just learned a little 'craft' from his master, but he didn't expect to be caught doing things for the first time, and he was pulled to the toilet and beaten firmly. ”

"I asked him, what will you do next time you are caught? He said that he still has to learn a unique trick from his master, and next time he will use a blade and tweezers, and no one will be able to catch him when he has learned well. ”

Lao Chen lit a cigarette and continued: "I asked him where his family was, and he said they were all dead, and I asked him where he lived, and he reported the name of a village. Then we took him to the welfare home, and the people in the nursery took care of him today, and we planned to go to his village to see it, and if the conditions were feasible, we would send him to the welfare home, but as soon as we left, he slipped out of the welfare home and ran away. ”

"Afterwards, I went to the place name that Xiao Xiaoli said, and it was in a village on the outskirts of western Beijing, and I found a few neighbors who knew Xiao Xiaolizi. The neighbors told me that the little calf was born around the turn of the millennium, and that he was a complete black household, with no hukou and no name. ”

Lao Chen continued: "His mother was pregnant with him when he was in high school, and the father of the little calf is either his mother's classmate or senior, anyway, there are more than a dozen suspicious objects, but none of them recognize.

There was such an ugly thing in the family, the grandfather of the little calf kicked his mother out of the house, his grandmother had no choice but to rent a house for the mother of the little calf to live, and within a few months the little calf was born, a girl who had not worked and had a child, and the difficulty of maintaining her life can be imagined, fortunately, the grandmother of the little calf often helped the two of them.

When the little calf was seven or eight years old, his mother ran away with a man from other places, and two years later his grandmother also died, and his grandfather did not want him, so he went to the south to join his aunt, and the people in the village looked at him pitifully, and asked a neighboring village who opened a copy shop in the city, and sent the little calf to be an apprentice, but for some reason he ran out again to learn to be a thief. ”

"In the past few years, I have dealt with him several times, but he was caught and sent to the police station by mistake, he knows that he is young, we can't handle him, and he is not afraid of me, so he will tell me everything. ”

Lao Chen pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, "I talked to him and told him not to be a little mouse in the sewer, but to come out and change his ways." It's a pity that the age group when he formed the three views came into contact with all the people of the three religions and nine streams.

This little calf followed them every day, and when I told him to change his ways, he argued with me that there was no shame in eating by 'craftsmanship'. There is no shame in relying on craftsmanship to eat, but what kind of 'craftsmanship' does he rely on? What kind of 'craftsmanship' can he count as stealing from others and robbing others?

When I asked him, he was still showing off to me what he had learned, what could he use his fingers to clip out a pen in boiling water in an instant, and smash the car glass silently with an escape hammer, but now he is bolder, completely crooked, daring to snatch someone's bag in broad daylight, and being handcuffed with a wire.

In the past two years, I have seen him less and less, and he has grown faster and faster, and we have not been caught in two years, but I know that his behavior is gradually escalating, and one day something will happen. I expected him to do this. ”

"I don't know much about your policing affairs, but don't you clean up all the people around the train station from time to time?" asked one officer.

Lao Chen said helplessly: "How is it possible! We are staring at it twenty-four hours a day, and we can't wait to clean it up every day."

But I can't stand the crowd, there are more than 100,000 people in and out every day, and there are hundreds of thousands of people when I get busy, and I just caught one here, and after a while, someone will make up for it and continue to do it, and the public security is not like the case you handle, there is no end, you can only be on the road all the time, and we are not gods!"

"Do you know where this little calf is going, or where he will be now?" asked Yutakahara.

Lao Chen shook his head, "I haven't talked to him for several years, but I'll take you to find someone, he may know." ”

Everyone nodded, and followed Lao Chen to the underground space at the exit of the railway station, during which the pedestrians out of the station were in a hurry, and on the side of the wall of the underground passage, more than a dozen beggars wrapped in tattered skins and old mattresses were lying on the ground, knocking on the broken jar in their hands, and constantly reaching out to passers-by to ask for money.

"The penultimate guy in his forties and fifties, with a scruffy beard, is called Lao Gupi, who was caught by us and sentenced to three years, and has only been out for a few months, but now he doesn't steal anymore, but begs instead. ”

Lao Chen pointed to a man, walked over, glared at him, and shouted: "Old melon peel, don't pretend to be paralyzed, stand up for me!"
