After a while, the tired scouts all evacuated and went home to enjoy a short dream, and the small courtyard of the village committee soon fell silent.

Wang Tao hadn't seen Xiao Wei for a long time, and he was naturally overjoyed to meet this time, so he took the initiative to stay and talk to Xiao Wei.

Ling Xiao didn't leave, he and another patrol member were in charge of guarding that Li Jiandong.

Although Li Jiandong basically explained the ins and outs of the duck, before it was confirmed where the duck with a finger bone in its stomach came from, Li Jiandong still couldn't get rid of suspicion, and he still needed to assist in the investigation at any time.

At this time, Wang Tao had already moved a coffee table in the village committee office to the courtyard, and sprinkled the courtyard with well water, which felt much more refreshing.

Yi Qing, Xiao Wei, and Wang Tao sat on the small four-corner bench in the countryside, and Ling Xiao came over curiously.

Yi Qing waved at him enthusiastically and motioned for him to sit down as well.

Yi Qing took out a pack of stone forest cigarettes, scattered one for everyone, lit it, and the curling green smoke dispersed over the rural courtyard in summer.

Yi Qing looked at Xiao Wei with a smile and said, "Xiao Xiao, how is it, how do you feel about this day of the criminal police?"

Xiao Wei spit out a puff of cigarette in his mouth and replied, "It's okay." It's just that it's a lot more boring than before. Supposedly, I am no stranger to the work of the criminal police, but I didn't feel this way before, but I have it today. ”

Yi Qing said: "This is not strange, and it is normal. In the past, whether it was your involvement in Shi Mingkai's case, or the knitting factory's case, or even your cases in Mengzhou and Brother Lin Feng.

You're involved in the most exciting and climactic part of the case, so it feels like a lot of ups and downs, thrills. However, you did not directly participate in a large number of dull and repetitive visits, investigations, and evidence collection work due to limited conditions.

In other words, it's like a movie, the climax part is the ten or twenty minutes, and the other parts are all for the climax part to pave the way.

It's the same with solving a case, finding the real culprit and capturing the suspect in the end is the climax, but it is a conclusive thing based on a lot of preliminary investigation work, and it is precisely those repeated and boring work that are the key to the success or failure of the case.

From today onwards, you are no longer a person who participates only out of interest, but a criminal police officer who is directly involved in the investigation and solving of crimes. Solving crimes will no longer be just your hobby, but your job and your duty.

An excellent criminal policeman has great responsibilities and should have the quality and consciousness he should have. If you fail to fulfill your duties conscientiously, you will be subject to discipline and even legal action.

So Xiao Xiao, from today onwards, you have to change your thinking and understanding. You haven't joined the police yet, and when you join the police, when you stand under the police badge and take the oath, the phrase 'serve the people wholeheartedly' may be more profound at that time. ”

After Yi Qing finished speaking, he looked at the thoughtful Xiao Wei with a smile, and took out a cigarette from the cigarette case again and lit it.

"Xiao Xiao, let's reminisce slowly, there will be time to think about it in the future. Let's talk about the present, Wang Tao, Xiao Xiao, Xiao Ling, you all talk about it, what do you think of the current case?"

Ling Xiao is the first time to participate in the criminal police to solve the case, and he has been working at the public security port before, so he didn't dare to speak rashly for fear of making a mistake.

Xiao Wei knew that Yi Qing wanted to test himself, so he didn't shirk and said, "First of all, on the question of whether this is a case. Human fingers don't run into the duck's belly for no reason, and the possibility of an accident is very small, so I judge that this is most likely a case of intentional injury.

Then there is the fact that the source of the duck is locked in these five households, so the missing persons in these five households are the key. Of course, there can be no other people, but Xialiyao Village is located in a remote area, the traffic is inconvenient, there is only one road connected to the outside of the village, it is a very closed place, and it is unlikely that outsiders are outside. So, the man with the severed finger should be in this village. Brother Yi's final arrangement today, I think it's very right. What do you say, Brother Yi?"

Yi Qing is still quite satisfied with Xiao Wei's answer, what he appreciates most is Xiao Wei's quick thinking, clear logic, and comprehensive and thorough consideration, which is also the potential that an excellent criminal policeman should have.

"Xiao Xiao, what you said makes sense. Yi Qing continued: "If it is a case of injury as you said, and it becomes an intentional injury case in the Criminal Law, a minor injury will constitute a criminal case according to the law." However, we have not received any reports about Xialiyao Village, and no one has reported that there have been recent cases of fights in the village.

This is no better than the city, in this small village with a thousand mouthfuls, if such a case had happened, it is estimated that everyone in the village would have known about it a long time ago. But now the whole village is as calm as water, so I don't think it's as simple as a case of intentional injury, it's probably a case of intentional homicide, and maybe even a case of murder and mutilation. ”

Kill and shred corpses!

As soon as Yi Qing said this, the backs of everyone present were shocked into a cold sweat, and they all turned their heads to look behind them, as if the murderer was hiding behind them.

Xiao Wei has only seen such cases in it, but in real life, he has never even heard of it.

Until he went to sleep in the house, Xiao Wei's heart was still hanging in the air, always shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere, and he always felt that there were eyes staring at him in the dark.

The next morning, everyone rushed to the village committee on time to report. According to yesterday's arrangement, everyone scattered and surveyed all the men in the village between the ages of 20 and 60.

Yi Qing was not idle, he asked Xiao Wei and Fei Long to call the village chief Song Chenggui to the village committee, and prepared to have a good talk with Director Wen to talk to him and learn more about the situation.

Song Chenggui is much more neatly dressed today than yesterday, and specially changed into a Mao suit, which is usually the kind of cadre uniform.

Except for Li Jiandong and two patrol policemen, the other investigators of the village committee have now gone out, so the whole courtyard looks very clean.

Yi Qing motioned for Xiao Wei to pour water for village chief Song Chenggui. Song Chenggui looked a little flattered, and even claimed: Don't dare. got up by himself, but poured a glass of water for Yi Qing, Director Wen, Xiao Wei and Fei Long, and then sat down.

Director Wen waved his hand and said, "Old Song, don't be busy, it's rare for Captain Yi of the criminal police team to come back, I have something to ask you, if you have anything to say, you can't hide it." ”

Song Chenggui said repeatedly: "That's, that's, whatever you ask, as long as I know, you must say it all." ”

Yi Qing first said politely: "Director Song, you see that we have such a big formation and so many people, and we have caused you trouble." ”

Song Chenggui replied: "No, no, it is our supreme honor that Captain Yi can come to our poor village." It's just that I don't know if the Public Security Bureau is in such a big position, is there something big going on?"

In fact, he originally wanted to say that the word was full of brilliance, but he didn't think of it for a while.

Yi Qing continued: "Director Song, you are too polite, let's get down to business, and no one should be polite to anyone." Since we have so many people, there must be something to come, but it is not convenient to tell you what is going on now, and I will tell you when the time is right. We grassroots organizations, we don't believe you, who else can we trust, don't you say?"

Song Chenggui nodded, unconsciously took out a cigarette and lit it, found that it was a little rude, and hurriedly took out the pack of Jiqing in his pocket and put it on the table.

Yi Qing asked: "Director Song, can you tell me what is the situation of these families in your village, and what has happened in the past few days?"

One is Li Wanchang, the other is Song Qinglin, the other is Song Hongjun and Song Fulai. ”

Song Chenggui cautiously asked, "Is something wrong with them?"

Yi Qing replied: "No, it's nothing, just understand the situation, don't worry, if there is something, I will definitely tell you." ”

Hearing Yi Qing say this, Song Chenggui relieved himself and said: "This Li Wanchang has been working outside, he is very skillful and can repair, and he can also be a carpenter, it is said that he is not bad outside, and it seems that he has not come back since he left after the Chinese New Year." ”

Speaking of this, Song Chenggui lowered his voice and said: "I heard from people from other villages that he still has a home outside, and I don't know if it's true or not." However, he was very good to his parents, wife and children, and when he came back, he bought a lot of things, and the family's house was counted in the village, and the seven halls were very bright.

Song Qinglin is an electrician in our village, usually the village is the runner in the village, and usually the village relies on others to collect electricity bills and water the ground. He is very honest and can do things, otherwise I wouldn't have given him such an important job as an electrician.

This Song Hongjun is also working outside, but this year is when he is busy with farming in May, and he has come back a few times. His wife is from another county, and it is said that she can't have children, or this Song Hongjun is in her thirties, and there is no one who is half a man and half a woman. Just because of this bad temper, he likes to beat his wife when he is drunk.

Song Fulai is a single, he accidentally went blind in one eye when he was a child, and his family conditions were very poor, so he didn't marry a daughter-in-law in his forties and kept playing single. My parents died early, and I didn't have a home, except for raising a duck and fiddling with a field, I wandered around the village all day long, and I was a poor household in our village.

The situation of these householdsEven in this case, I haven't heard anything happen to any of them recently. Although our village is poor, the security has always been very good, and there has not even been a thief for several years. Director Wen and Captain Yi, do you have anything else to know?"

Yi Qing held a pen in his hand, and Song Chenggui said that he had been recording it in his hand.

This is a habit of Yi Qing, a good brain is better than a bad pen, and all the investigations will be recorded word for word, whether they are useful or not. Over the course of a year, there are always several notebooks.

Waiting for Yi Qing to finish writing, he politely handed Song Chenggui a cigarette and said with a smile: "Then that's it for now, Director Song, you go back first." If there's anything else you need to know, we'll get back to you. ”

Song Chenggui nodded "hey" and walked out of the door with a cigarette, turned back when he walked to the door, walked up to Yi Qing and said, "Captain Yi, there is a situation I don't know whether to talk about or not." Supposedly, I shouldn't be behind the gossip of others, but if I don't say it, I'm afraid of misleading you. ”

Yi Qing looked at Song Chenggui and seemed to have something hidden, so he said: "Director Song, it is the obligation of every citizen to cooperate with our public security organs to investigate and reflect the situation, and besides, we will keep it secret for you." Xiao Xiao and Fei Long, you go out first, and here is just me and Director Wen. ”

After Xiao Wei and Fei Long left, Song Chenggui sat down again and said a situation very mysteriously.

It turned out that the day before Xiao Wei and his team went to the village to investigate, that is, on July 25 of the lunar calendar, it was more than ten o'clock in the evening of August 20 of the solar calendar.

Song Chenggui came back from drinking at Guo Ergou's house, and when he passed by Song Hongjun's house, he saw a man jumping from a tree in the courtyard of Song Hongjun's house to the top of the courtyard wall.

At that time, Song Chenggui still thought that Song Hongjun was not at home, how could a man jump out of the wall, could it be that Song Hongjun's wife Jin Lanhua took advantage of the fact that the man was not at home and Hongxing went out of the wall to secretly fornicate with others?

So Song Chenggui secretly hid in the dark and saw it clearly, it turned out that the person who jumped out was Song Fulai, a bachelor in the village.

Song Fulai jumped from the tree to the courtyard wall, and then jumped to the ground along the courtyard wall, and hurriedly ran along the aisle.

At that time, Song Chenggui didn't dare to squeak when he saw this scene, as the old saying goes: Rape and gamble on thieves, don't dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing, if it spreads, it will be a big deal.

Now that the Public Security Bureau is coming to investigate, Song Chenggui doesn't know if it has anything to do with this matter, but after thinking about it again, he decided to tell Yi Qing and them about the situation.
