Fourth, don't call me Dad
Qiao Rao just patted him on the shoulder with a stretched face: "It's enough to have your words, when did the master blame you?" β
Time passed minute by minute, and Qiao Zhen understood that after seventy-two hours, the probability of solving the case was plummeting, because the suspect had enough time to think about the missing points, to hide the evidence in tandem and even escape.
It was already rush hour at work, Qiao Zhen rubbed his bloodshot eyes, yawned big, and saw a few missed calls on his phone, one was his father's, and two were Shi Yan's. She didn't have time to call back, so she bought a breakfast and looked intently at the old husband's housing community opposite through the glass window of McDonald's.
After about half an hour, a woman in her thirties walked towards the community, carrying a few bags of vegetables. Qiao Zhen hurriedly rushed out and ran across the road to her.
This woman was the wife of the deceased's former driver.
As soon as Chen Shijie walked into the conference room, he felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he tiptoed over to Shi Yan and took a seat to inquire about the situation.
"Team Qiao sulked, the case did not progress, Qiao Zhen did not go to the archives to report, and directly called Team Zhang to report the situation."
Chen Shijie touched his forehead and expressed his embarrassment: "Qiao Zhen has a sad life in the future, Qiao Rao has just become famous for his selflessness, and he has only been on the second day of work. β
"People don't adapt to the soil and water, they think this is the United States. It's just that Team Joe may not give her too many opportunities. β
Sure enough, Qiao Zhen had just brought people back, and before she could start asking, she was called out of the door by Qiao Raogang and told her to hand over to the two scouts, so she didn't have to continue.
"Clean, that's it, go back to the archives and do your job." He lectured his daughter with a straight face.
Qiao Zhen, who stayed up all night, suddenly felt aggrieved, and his face turned red. Shi Yan, who passed by the side, pretended to unintentionally elbow her, meaning to let her hold back her anger. Qiao Zhen could only take a deep breath and calm down. She is familiar with her father's temper, and she is a direct boss after all, and she can't disobey his orders and make him unable to get off the stage.
The woman who followed Qiao Zhen attracted the attention of the police, and she stood behind Qiao Zhen a little restrained and didn't know what to do. Qiao Zhen asked a passing investigator to take her to the interrogation room to rest first, and then went to the corner and took out a voice recorder and forensics instrument, and told her colleagues about the ins and outs, and answered all the questions of her colleagues.
Qiao Zhen secretly glanced at Qiao Raogang, who was listening, and could see that he was quite satisfied with his work attitude and content, but he was still pretending to be serious and annoyed, so she said it with confidence, and by the way, she also said the evidence she had already mastered and the analysis of the criminal psychology.
Before setting off from the corps last night, Qiao Zhen repeatedly watched the video of the driver being questioned. From the professional point of view of criminal psychoanalysis, some subtle expressions when being questioned are fleeting, but they can best express his true heart, and ordinary people cannot hide it, and they can't even detect that they are revealing this kind of "frightened and worried" expression. From another point of view, if you don't slow down the camera and ponder frame by frame, even professionals on the scene may miss this tenth of a second of micro-expression because of a bow of your head and a distraction.
"The question is, what exactly is the problem that the driver is hiding?"
Qiao Zhen glanced at Qiao Raogang quickly, and found that he didn't mean to stop, and said quickly: "When the driver talks about the deceased Chen, he always deliberately avoids the usual 'Boss Chen' or 'Mr. Chen', but uses 'he' to refer to him, indicating that a large part of his hidden problems are related to the deceased." β
After that, Qiao Zhen figured out the work trends of various colleagues. She noticed that although the driver's financial accounts were in question, no one had started with his family.
When visiting the security guard of the company and the driver, she paid attention to another detail, the security guard mentioned that the driver and his lover were often noisy, and because they often worked overtime temporarily, they had long been dissatisfied with Mr. Chen. After the driver resigned this time, she still wanted to find him directly to theorize, but the two of them had a good fight, and they were about to break up, so they gave up.
"The records I asked the driver's wife are all in the forensics instrument. According to her description, Chen was always a very stingy person who did not care about his subordinates, even if he was in his Chinese New Year's Eve, he would send a driver to deliver his guests, and never thought of wrapping a red envelope for his children. The driver's wife gave many examples, in short, she repeatedly said that her nature is difficult to change, and she never believed that Chen could suddenly change from an iron rooster to a bodhisattva. Later, I went to the company to check, and many employees euphemistically said that Chen was indeed more frugal. β
"So, Chen does have something to do with the driver?"
According to Chen's personality, the criterion for spending money is that the other party is unsuccessful, and it is difficult to find other reasons for him to make money. Moreover, the driver's wife was timid and afraid, I reasoned with her, she was more cooperative, and mentioned a key clue after careful recall, just two days before her husband was fired, he came back from work and mentioned that Chen had a new girlfriend in the company, and his original words were 'This time it's real'. β
"So that beautiful woman just now is what he called his 'new girlfriend'?"
Qiao Zhen nodded: "But this person is very cautious, and it took a lot of effort to bring her here, you guys are trying to see if you can squeeze out some material." β
Qiao Rao just closed the door of the office, his face sank, and he asked: "On the second day of work, you violated several disciplines, do you think you are particularly capable and can fight alone?" β
"Dad, I really don't have this idea, I just hope to solve the case with everyone."
"Are you solving a case? Don't obey the organizational arrangement, don't work normally, go to report to the next level, this is no team spirit, organizational discipline, do you think you are a lone wolf detective? Do you think that such a case can be rewarded for meritorious service on its own? β
"Dad......"
"Also, as long as you walk into this compound, as long as it's during working hours, you are not allowed to call me Dad, you can only call me Team Qiao."
"Team Joe...... I didn't want to you off. β
"I don't have anything to be angry about, you affect the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the entire team. If everyone is like you, scattered in a mess, how can they work together to solve the case? Don't stare at me stunned, I used to be ashamed of making mistakes when I was a child, but now it's like I'm talking about other people's problems. Am I wrong? β
Qiao Zhen was silent, holding his forehead with his hands, and brushing his hair as if he was thinking about something.
"I don't know where your mind is, so you can write me a letter to check when you go back."
"Dad, oh, Team Joe, I have a question I want to discuss with you."
"Say."
"You see, I'm over eighteen years old, I've always lived independently in the United States, we are two generations, living habits and philosophies are very different, I'm thinking about moving out and renting a house to live, if you don't have an opinion, I'll probably share a house with my sister, who is the forensic doctor Shi Yan."
Qiao Rao was stunned and didn't speak for a long time. Qiao Zhen looked at him nervously and didn't dare to say anything more.
Qiao Rao just lit a cigarette and took a few puffs, Qiao Zhen waited quietly, as if waiting for a solemn verdict: "Where is her community?" β
"Between the Central Ring and the Inner Ring, it is about 20 minutes' drive from the unit, and it is only about 10 minutes from our house, two stops away."
"I'm asking what the state of law and order is?"
"Shi Yan knows, she is very cautious, the place she can choose should not be bad, and I have never heard her talk about theft or anything like that."
Qiao Rao just snuffed out the cigarette butt and waved his hand: "It's a big deal." Go, I'm out of sight and out of mind, I'll pick you up every day at work. β
Qiao Zhen jumped up, put his arms around Qiao Raogang's neck, and rushed into his arms: "Dad, you are so democratic, thank you, Dad." β
Qiao Rao just hurriedly pushed her away and looked around: "In the unit, pay attention to the impact, and I am not used to you as a foreigner, how many times have I said it." β
βYESοΌSIR.β Qiao Zhen accepted it when he saw it, saluted Qiao Raogang, and trotted to retreat.
"Don't forget to review the book!" Qiao Rao just admonished behind him.
The serious crime team has not been assigned an intern for several years, because Qiao Zhen has a professional counterpart, excellent professional grades, graduated from a prestigious school, and is a "gifted" new police officer who has rarely met in the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Municipal Bureau for several years, so he was naturally assigned to the serious crime team for internship. Qiao Raogang didn't take extra care, and according to the usual practice, he let the new police sit on a cold bench and lock him in a small dark room in the archives room, and sort out the case files and files that had accumulated for a long time.
The police officers of the criminal squad often work overtime in their usual work, and it is good that these routine tasks can be done without omissions, and they have no time to take care of the files. Interns who meet once in a few years have to face a workload that occurs once in a few years, and Qiao Zhen went to the archives, almost using both hands and feet. Even if she was well-planned and organized, and had strong execution, she had to work for more than two hours in a row, with sweat on her forehead and ash on her hands, to barely complete the day's workload.
The old policeman who came to the archives to deliver his qualifications shook his head when he walked out of the room, deeply sympathized, and secretly said, "Qiao Rao has just been really ruthless to his own daughter." You must know that this amount of work is carried out by four or five interns at a time in other brigades, and they are busy all day.
Qiao Zhen hurriedly washed his hands, patted the dust on his body, and when he returned to the interrogation room, the woman who was brought to make a note had already left. Seeing Qiao Rao just sitting in the conference room, she was about to take a detour and walk away, when she caught up with Zhang Chenzhi, who walked out.
"Hello Team Zhang!" Qiao Zhen said hello and hurriedly continued to walk forward.
Zhang Chenzhi stopped her with a smile: "I am neither a big leader, nor your father Qiao Raogang, you don't have to avoid me." β
"Team Zhang, don't make fun of me, I haven't written the review report before."
"Then did you obey the orders of your superiors?"
Qiao Zhen looked at him in surprise, with a helpless expression: "Absolute obedience, how dare I disobey, go write now." β
"You're mistaken, I'm asking you what you think about the case, and I want to hear it. This is not a skipping report, I am the team leader of this case, and I can find you. Zhang Chenzhi gestured to Qiao Raogang in the room as he spoke, indicating that he was looking for Qiao Zhen to understand the work.
"Aren't you afraid that my dad will find you?" Qiao Zhen asked quietly.
