Section 100 Asking for Merit
Director Deng was not surprised to hear that seven passengers had been killed, and it was clear that he had already been informed of the news. He patted Xu Yan on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Xiao Xu, you have done a good job. If you think about it, which of the cases of people infected with the F virus reported in the past were not tens or even hundreds of casualties? Do you also know how many people were killed or injured in the incident in our city's Wanhe shopping mall? The number of police officers who died in the line of duty alone is no less than double digits! If the casualties of the masses are included, it is even more impossible to calculate, and when I think of that number, I feel that it is intoxicating.
It's not easy for you compared to them. You must know that you are fighting alone with your bare hands, unprepared to encounter this monster, and in the special environment of flying flights at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters -- according to me, no matter how many casualties there are among the passengers, as long as you keep the plane safe and can land safely, this is a great achievement! I am not the leader of your intelligence department, but I think that Comrade Xu Yan, your performance this time is already very good, very remarkable!
After the investigation is over, we, the Jincheng Public Security Bureau, are ready to go through the formal procedures to show your bravery to Comrade Xu Yan and ask for credit from your intelligence department!"
"Ah, Director Deng, you are too polite, I just did my job, there is no need to exaggerate like this. β
But Director Deng Bonan insisted on asking for credit: "Comrade Xu Yan, you are too modest. When we have achievements, we must boldly praise them, so that we can encourage the advanced, whip the backwards, and carry out our work better! You don't have to worry about this matter, we must do it!"
Obviously, this Director Deng Bonan is an old bureaucrat who is well versed in the way of life, and he knows the truth of Huahuaqiaozi lifting people. Of course he does. The suspicion and temptation of Xu Yan just now must have been seen by the young man in front of him. The other party may have a grudge against him -- although in terms of Deng Bonan's capacity as the head of the public security bureau with real power at the department level, he doesn't have to care what this hairy little captain thinks of him. But after all, Xu Yan is an officer of the Central Confidential Intelligence Department, and he became a captain at such a young age, and no one knows what his background is and what his path is. The person who works in this kind of department, he can't look at his level, and I don't know if this little guy can go straight to the sky.
For a local real power like Director Deng, the biggest headache is a small person like Xu Yan. A petty officer like this, he is a military intelligence system, and he is a local political and legal system. If he wants to help himself, he may not be able to help himself, but if he wants to harm himself, maybe at a critical time, he will crook his mouth in front of which chief, and say two sentences: "Jincheng's security doesn't seem to be very effective~~" will add countless troubles to himself;
Second, Deng Bonan is also optimistic about Xu Yan's strength. This trip to the outbreak of the F virus across the country, the patients are constantly suffering, and no one knows when it will be a head - since it is a virus, it will be contagious. With the first case, there is a second, a third...... Even scientists don't know how the virus spreads, and the infection has the potential to spread!
There are only cases of F virus infection every time. Death and bloodshed are certainly ensued, and a long list of deaths is a long list, and it is not only the masses who die. Even the police officers who participated in the war suffered heavy casualties...... As the head of public security in charge of local security, this is the most headache for Deng Bonan: if he has to risk his own police officers to fight those monsters with his life every time. I'm afraid that if such an incident happens twice, the morale of my subordinates will collapse. Since Xu Yan has the ability to kill monsters with his bare hands. Director Deng Bonan naturally wants to have a good relationship with him - leave some friendship in this way, in case this kind of thing happens again in his own jurisdiction, even if he asks someone to help with reinforcements, he will know who to turn to!
Some people may think: Since Xu Yan is an officer of the Intelligence Department, why does Director Deng need to befriend him? Director Deng can directly contact the Intelligence Department and ask for help through the official organizational channels, so why should he curry favor with such a small captain as Xu Yan?
But Director Deng knew that it could be said in theory, but in fact it was absolutely unworkable. As a sub-provincial city's public security bureau, if it asks the military for help through official channels, it often means that the situation is already very serious, and the local security situation is already in danger of getting out of control. It's okay once or twice, but if there are too many times, the higher-level leaders will feel that they can't even handle such a trivial matter, and every time they ask the PLA for help, they are too incompetent as the director of the public security bureau, and their control is too poor, right?
And there's another problem: if you go through the formal process, it's cumbersome and there are many approvals, and if you wait until the request for help arrives at the Ministry of Intelligence, maybe the daylily will be cold.
In contrast, he had a good relationship with Xu Yan personally, and when something happened, he would invite the other party to help with a phone call, which was straightforward, fast, and did not need to alarm the higher-level leaders -- compared with going through formal channels, such benefits were really much better! The only trouble in doing so was that it was not good to summon Xu Yan in vain, and he needed to give Xu Yan some financial subsidies or something in private. Compared with the pension for the deceased police officers, even if it costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to ask Xu Yan to help, this is not a matter at all!
The third reason, and the most important reason, -- the Jincheng Public Security Bureau's Literature and Intelligence Department asked for credit for Captain Xu Yan, and it only took a few lines of writing a few lines on a blank piece of paper to stamp a seal; in the past, not only was this Captain Xu happy, but the intelligence department on the other side would also feel secretly happy on his face, and more importantly, his own public security bureau did not have to spend a dime on the cost, which was really a great joy -- as for whether the Intelligence Department was willing to give Xu Yan a reward in the end, Deng Bonan didn't care. Anyway, his favor has already been sent, no matter whether Xu Yan can get that reward in the end or not, he has to accept his favor.
If you talk about dealing with monsters, Xu Yan can barely be regarded as a half-understood expert, but he is too far behind to fight with these treacherous and cunning bureaucrats. Hearing Deng Bonan's insistence on asking for credit for himself, Xu Yan still thought that the other party really appreciated himself, and he was really happy in his heart-although Xu Yan didn't know what the use of asking for credit was. But after all, he is a teenager, and he knows that his expression has been appreciated by the other party. I was really happy in my heart, and my favor for this half-bald public security chief suddenly soared by 100% - it turned out. This Director Deng is still very understanding and a good comrade who is very amiable!
Deng Bonan is also busy, since it was confirmed that the F virus infected person had been killed by Xu Yan, he immediately put his mind at ease, and the rest of the routine finishing work naturally did not need to be personally escorted by the dignified public security chief.
"Xiao Xu, there is still an important meeting to be held by the municipal party committee, I want to rush back to the municipal party committee to attend the meeting, and I will leave today. Deng Bonan left his business card for Xu Yan. said to Xu Yan very affectionately: "Ah, Xiao Xu, this is my business card, we often contact each other when we have something - oh, you are here in Jincheng, if you have something to do, you might as well give me a call." Hehe, I also know that your intelligence department has vast powers and strong skills. Needless to say, all of your agents are elite soldiers, but we are also local snakes, and we are familiar with those three-minded and ninth-rate characters. There are some things that it is more convenient for us to intervene.
Ah, excuse me. Xiao Xu, I'm going back to have a meeting first. I'll ask you to preside over the overall situation here, I've worked hard for you-"
Seeing that Deng Bonan finished speaking, he hurriedly walked to the police car. Xu Yan was anxious, and hurriedly stopped him: "Hey, Director Deng, don't be in a hurry to leave! What do you mean by saying that I will preside over the overall situation? The plane has landed, and the rest of the work should be handed over to your Jincheng Public Security Bureau to be responsible for handling." β
Hearing Xu Yan say this, Deng Bonan's face suddenly wrinkled: "Hey, Comrade Xiao Xu, don't embarrass us." You also know that the cases involving the F virus are all in charge of the central investigation team, mainly in your intelligence department, and now you are the only member of the task force in Jincheng, and you have participated in the matter from beginning to end, you are familiar with the situation, you are not here to command, who is in charge?"
As soon as he heard this, Xu Yan suddenly jumped up, and he shouted: "Director Deng, you are not authentic, are you? I am here alone, how can you put me in charge of the investigation law?"
"Who said Captain Xu that you are alone?" Deng Bonan smiled at the corner of his mouth, and his smile contained a bit of bad taste: "Oh, you obviously still have people!"
"Ah, where?"
"Well, isn't this beautiful woman next to you with you?
From the time Xu Yan got off the plane until she talked to Deng Bonan, Zhu Youxiang had been following Xu Yan, but she had not spoken, and she was silent like a pillar that could walk. Deng Bonan was surprised by Zhu Youxiang's beauty and temperament, and was also curious about her identity, but Xu Yan didn't take the initiative to introduce it, and he didn't take the initiative to mention the other party's female companion, so as not to be solemn enough, now, taking this opportunity, he took Xu Yan easily.
Hearing the other party mention herself, Zhu Youxiang was slightly surprised, she turned her head, glanced at Deng Bonan with autumn-like eyes, and did not take the initiative to greet Deng Bonan, but turned around as if nothing had happened just now.
This woman knows her identity, but she does her own thing like this, she doesn't even say hello, as if she doesn't put herself in her eyes, such an independent and special - seeing Zhu Youxiang's appearance, Deng Bonan can't help but be secretly surprised, thinking that this Captain Xu is very capable, and the people who follow him are also very individual, looking at the arrogance of the girl, it is not easy for her to come from a small background.
Xu Yan was really taboo about the other party mentioning the topic of Zhu Youxiang, he laughed dryly twice and opened the topic: "Director Deng, don't be joking." Say, I'm here alone for such a big thing, how do you end it? Aren't you embarrassing me?"
"Well, Xu Yan, if you are worried about the lack of manpower, our Jincheng Bureau has a lot of cadres and policemen this time, and I can transfer them to your command...... When the central investigation team came down to investigate, when there was a shortage of manpower, they always seconded the manpower of our local public security, and this is usually the case. β
In fact, Deng Bonan didn't really want to embarrass Xu Yan, he also knew that since the plane involved in the case landed in Jincheng, and the Jincheng Public Security Bureau was responsible for the first-hand investigation, this task would definitely not be able to run. It's just that since the matter involves the F virus, it is not a trivial matter, and in the end, all the investigation materials must be handed over to the central task force, and the public security bureau of Jincheng City will make a special report to the central task force.
Deng Bonan is also worried: This kind of big case is unusual, if there is something wrong or wrong with the police officers under his subordinates, they will be discovered by the higher authorities when they hand over the materials. Things are in trouble. In order to prevent this, it is better to bring in Xu Yan, a member of the investigation team, right now. At that time, even if there are some mistakes, there will be a reason for him to keep up: "At that time, it was Comrade Xu Yan of the special case investigation team who was in charge of the investigation. It was he who commanded. In this way, Wen Xiuzhi saw that it was his own people who did the case, and it was difficult for them to say anything if it hindered the face of his own people-to put it bluntly, Deng Bonan just wanted to drag Xu Yan into the water.
Listening to Deng Bonan's request to direct the investigation, Xu Yan suddenly became two--your sister, since she was a child, she has never been in charge of people, and the biggest position she has ever held is that she was the team leader for half a semester when she was a primary school student; Deng Bonan said that he would assign hundreds of heavily armed public security officers to his command, and that he would be responsible for arranging for them to be dispatched to conduct investigations -- he would even make a mess of his own room, and if he really gave hundreds of people his own command, he would have to make a mess of things, and he could not afford this responsibility.
Xu Yan doesn't understand criminal investigation procedures, but he has watched a lot of TV, and if he wants to investigate a homicide, he inevitably has to investigate the scene, collect evidence, search fingerprints for evidence, examine the wounded, and make notes with witnesses...... These are all necessary work, and the procedure is cumbersome and complicated. If you get dragged into this mess. Then it's unlucky, I'm afraid it will involve me for a month or two.
Xu Yan pulled Deng Bonan's sleeve to prevent him from leaving, and at this moment, he suddenly blessed his soul. A very powerful reason came to mind: "Deng Ju, think about it, I killed that F virus infected person." I am a participant in this incident, according to the investigative procedure. I should have avoided it, right? How can you ask me to direct the investigation, that's against principle. β
Deng Bonan grinned like a toothache. He had to admit that the reason Xu Yan said was indeed very convincing. Xu Yan had just killed a person, and now he was still an undetermined figure -- whether he was guilty or innocent, a hero, and a criminal all depended on the results of the investigation.
Although everyone knows that Xu Yan killed the madman in order to protect the passengers of the whole plane, it is a complete legitimate defense, legal and reasonable, but according to the normal legal procedures, to reach this conclusion, after all, it is necessary to go through the process of investigation, even if it is just to go through a formality, the public security side has to make some written materials with the passengers present as evidence. If Xu Yan is also allowed to participate in the investigation, or even let him be the commander-in-chief, then this investigation will become a joke, and it will become "Xu Yan came to investigate whether Xu Yan is guilty and whether it is legitimate defense", so that many things will not be clear in the future. In this case, it is not a good thing for Xu Yan himself or the Jincheng Public Security Bureau.
Deng Bonan thought about it again and again, and finally had to give up the idea of pushing Xu Yan to take on the command, and he said regretfully: "Captain Xu, since you have this concern, it may be, since you don't want to take over, then avoid it." Let's follow the procedure, and the Jincheng Public Security Bureau will do a preliminary investigation first. β
Hearing this, Xu Yan shook Deng Bonan's hand and thanked him repeatedly, Deng Bonan couldn't cry or laugh, he waved his hand: "Alas, Xiao Xu, you scoundrel, I really can't do anything about you, you really don't look like a person from the Intelligence Department at all! By the way, I'm going back to the city now, do you want to go back with my car?"
Xu Yan was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "Ah, can I go? Can I go home?"
"Of course you can go, who's stopping you?"
"Then I don't need to make a written statement or something?"
Deng Bonan groaned: "Xiao Xu, you are the main party in today's matter, since you want to investigate, I will definitely ask you to make a material, this transition is still inevitable...... But to make materials, you don't have to do it today, Xu Yan, you trekked back and forth today, and fought with monsters twice, I guess you must be very tired, you go home first to rest, another day is in good spirits, and it's not too late to make a note at that time. Anyway, you won't run, this, what's the hurry!"
Leaving the suspect who had just killed someone from the scene, and allowing him to make a record another day, so that he had enough time to brew and prepare his speech - at this time, Xu Yan could see that Deng Bonan was deliberately courting himself. He smiled: "In this way, then thank you, Director Deng." β
Because Deng Bonan had to go back to the municipal party committee for a meeting, his way back to the city was not the same as Xu Yan's, in order to take care of Xu Yan, Deng Bonan specially transferred an off-road police car and sent two police officers to drive Xu Yan home. Probably because they had been instructed by their superiors in advance, the attitude of the two policemen was very respectful. is very enthusiastic about Xu Yan and Zhu Youxiang, and keeps claiming that they are "leaders". Xu Yan was not embarrassed, and excused and explained several times. He said that he was not a "leader" and that he would have called himself Xu Yan, but the two policemen smiled and said: "You're welcome, the leader has already explained to us, you are the leader of the central government to inspect the locality, and we can't be rude -- oh, that's right, you all call the leader the leader the chief, and we are wrong." That'sβHello Chief!"
Obviously, although the above explained, the two young policemen obviously didn't believe that the young Xu Yan would be a "leader" or "chief", and they said something like a respectful and a joke, and Xu Yan couldn't cry or laugh.
He peeked at it and saw that Zhu Youxiang, who was sitting next to him, looked calm and steady like Mount Tai, and the other party's enthusiasm didn't care. Whether the other party called "leader" or "chief", she unceremoniously accepted all the orders, as if this respect and politeness were taken for granted. This Enron's determination made Xu Yan secretly admire in his heart.
The police car drove all the way to the graduate school area of Shudu University, and put Xu Yan and Zhu Youxiang down at the front door of the school. After getting out of the car and thanking the two police officers, Xu Yan and Zhu Youxiang walked slowly home.
Then. It was already past seven o'clock in the evening, and the sun had just set. The last sunset has disappeared into the western sky. Looking at the male and female students who were going to study in the evening with books in pairs, and the student couples who snuggled up tightly together. Returning to the familiar school environment and atmosphere, Xu Yan had a real feeling.
So much has happened to me since the morning today. I followed Wen Xiuzhi and the central task force to Xiangcheng together, and saw many things there that I had never imagined before. The brutal murders, the terrible bloodshed, the large number of military and police, the feats he made, the stimulation of adrenal hormone secretion after the killing, the glory of being revered as the "chief", and the unexpected sexual encounters - it can be said that all the things that a young man looks forward to in his fantasy have happened to Xu Yan today. Until now, when he returned to the campus at his home and saw the familiar scene and atmosphere in front of him, Xu Yan still felt a little incredulous for a while-those things that happened today couldn't be a dream, right?
But soon, Xu Yan immediately knew that today's events were by no means a dream: the mobile phone in his pocket was buzzing, but the caller was an unfamiliar mobile phone number.
Xu Yan pressed the answer: "Hello, who is it?"
"Hello, Brother Yan, it's me, Xiuzhi!" On the phone, Wen Xiuzhi was very enthusiastic, with a beaming posture, and that enthusiasm was almost like coming out of the microphone along the radio waves and pounced on Xu Yan's face. Xu Yan knew when he heard the voice that this guy must have encountered something happy.
"Hello, Chief Wen. Xu Yan said casually - he also said this way, today he was called the chief too much, and when he heard Wen Xiuzhi calling, he said so casually.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, Wen Xiuzhi on the other end of the phone suddenly became unhappy: "Alas, Brother Yan, what's the matter? I haven't seen you for a long time, and you're seeing Brother Wen like this? If you talk like this again, Brother Wen will be unhappy!"
Xu Yan smiled dryly, he heard Wen Xiuzhi's voice on the phone, the background sound was very noisy, there was a big noise, he asked, "Brother Wen, where are you? Why does the sound seem to be so noisy." β
"Oh, I'm on the train - you know, the big guy we caught today is too big to be transported by plane, so we have to load it to the imperial capital. This matter is too big, Brother Wen, I have to escort it personally, and now I am still on the train, and now I have only arrived in northern Hebei, and my mobile phone is about to run out of battery, so I borrowed someone else's mobile phone to call you. Wen Xiuzhi said happily: "Brother Yan, I heard that on the flight back to Jincheng, you did another big thing?"
"Well, Brother Wen, I also just arrived home, and I want to report the matter to you-" In fact, after getting off the plane, Xu Yan didn't think of reporting the matter to Wen Xiuzhi at all, but now that Wen Xiuzhi called, he remembered this and said hypocritically: "It's just that I was entangled by the leaders of the Jincheng Public Security Bureau just now, and now I'm free, but I didn't expect Brother Wen to call you first." β
"Come less, you kid must have forgotten!" Wen Xiuzhi was discerning, and immediately exposed Xu Yan's lies, but Xu Yan could hear that Wen Xiuzhi didn't want to blame himself, but just used this joke to get closer to himself: "Hehe, Brother Yan, you did a good job! Just now the Jincheng Public Security Bureau has called us, and they have questioned the passengers and flight attendants present, and based on all kinds of evidence, the preliminary investigation conclusion has come out, what do you think is the Liu-Liu who went crazy on the plane?"
Xu Yan reminded him: "Liu Aiguo!"
"Oh, yes, Liu Aiguo! This person is indeed an F-virus infected person. The Jincheng Public Security Bureau believes that if you hadn't killed him in a timely and decisive manner on the plane, then the next development of events would have been terrible, and there was even a danger that the plane crashed and killed people-"
"Wait a minute," Xu Yan interrupted Wen Xiuzhi and said, "So soon, in less than an hour, the Jincheng Public Security Bureau's investigation conclusion has reached your side?"
"Oh, they've done the preliminary survey, and that's the preliminary conclusion, but it's basically conclusive. The official investigation report will not come out in a few days, but they will call me first to ventilate in private, so that we can rest easy, after all, the matter involves members of our task force, and the head above is also very concerned about this matter, and I want to hear the news - I have just received their notice, and I will congratulate you as soon as possible!"
"Congratulations, congratulations?"
"Hehe, you are still pretending! Jincheng Public Security Bureau, they even wrote a letter of commendation: '...... At the critical moment, Comrade Xu Yan stepped forward, fearless of his personal safety, heroically fought to the death against the berserkers, and skillfully subdued the berserkers with his skillful and superb military skills! At an altitude of 10,000 meters, he handled the situation properly, stopped a possible air crash, saved the safety of 200 people, and also avoided heavy losses for the country. He has made outstanding contributions to the people, established a good image of our people's soldiers standing up in times of crisis, embodied the fearless heroic spirit of contemporary soldiers, and is a model for us to learn' -- Brother Yan, let me breathe with you first, the Jincheng Public Security Bureau will also pass the GuΓ² Shudu Provincial Public Security Department and directly ask the ministry for credit for you.
The head of the ministry has heard about this, and he is very happy, saying that we have finally recruited some real talents back this time...... Brother, you are blessed, how many comrades in the ministry have worked hard for most of their lives, and the chief does not even know their names. Brother, as soon as you entered the ministry, you were immediately remembered by the chief, and the future is really promising......!
