In fact, the afternoon before, it was the weekend, and Qiao Zhen was still working extra overtime for this matter. In this private action, she specially invited a technical foreign aid - Chen Shijie.

"Based on the features of the photographs I took, I wanted to look for a cutting tool in several important building materials markets in the city." Qiao Zhen and Shi Yan mentioned their own considerations.

Shi Yan agreed: "This kind of work is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, but in the absence of evidence, being able to rule out a few more clues is also a kind of promotion to the case." ”

Qiao Zhen watched her pack up her things and get ready to get off work, and said distressedly, "The question is how to find it?" I don't even know where these machines are sold. ”

Shi Yan stopped what she was doing and tried her best to recommend her colleague Chen Shijie in the same group: "He is a fan of machinery, whether it is the latest electronic products or all kinds of household and commercial equipment on the market, he can know everything about it, and he can almost directly recite the technical parameters of various machines." ”

"Really? I can't tell that he still has this skill. Qiao Zhen turned around and went to find Chen Shijie.

He listened to Joe's real assumption: "Then you have found the right person." The tool you're talking about isn't a large cutter for commercial use, nor is it a household cutter with a sharp blade, in fact, these markets are also places that are not well known to the average person, but I've been to this kind of equipment enthusiast. ”

Qiao Zhenxi smiled: "Okay, I'll see you downstairs at nine o'clock tomorrow, and I'll take care of the food at noon, but I'm going to work hard for you." ”

"There's no need to be so troublesome, based on the scratches, we should be able to deduce the centralized alternative machine," Chen said. ”

Qiao Zhen insisted: "Only on-site visits can obtain more evidence in the future." Seeing is believing. ”

She wanted to find a machine that was strong enough to cut off the human skeleton and just hard enough to scratch the surface of the marble. As for the specific brand and model, it is the focus of her search. Because Qiao Zhen wanted to lock the model and sales location of the machine, if it weren't for Chen Shijie's guidance, Qiao Zhen really didn't know where to work hard.

Chen Shijie looked at Qiao Zhen, who was full of energy and slowly rolled over several markets, and only smiled as an assistant. Seeing her squatting up and down to observe the records, visiting and inquiring one stall by one, and rushing to the next market, Chen Shijie bought a bottle of water from the family supermarket and handed it to her, and couldn't help but comment: "I always thought that people like you from various classes would look like the legendary academics." ”

"Academic?" Qiao Zhen looked back with a smile: "I know the academic school in the clothing school, can you tell me what the academic school in the criminal investigation work is like?" ”

"People like you attach importance not only to criminal psychological analysis, but also to the study of on-site evidence. It's just that you are obligated to work overtime like this, and no one will judge you as a model worker, so why bother? ”

Qiao Zhen frowned slightly and glanced at him: "Am I such a person who is eager for quick success in your eyes?" ”

Seeing Chen Shijie's speechless appearance, Qiao Zhen laughed and scolded him in his heart for being such a nerd, and felt that he gave up his rest day to accompany her to work overtime, and he was a little unbearable to treat him like this, so he simply put his heart into his heart: "Actually, I have my own plans." ”

Chen Shijie raised his head and looked at her curiously in disbelief.

"You think, who is my father, the famous old Joe of the Serious Crime Team, many people think that I entered the Serious Crime Team because of him."

"At least that's not what we really think." Chen Shijie said to her seriously and sincerely.

"That's why I'm getting closer to you. There are three types of people in the system, a very small number of people make rules, one group of people is also the majority of people who are trying to adapt to the rules, and a relatively small number of people try to escape the shackles of rules in various ways. Me and you and Shi Yan are more like the last type of people, but our way is the purest, or from a pessimistic point of view, judging from the past history of many predecessors, it may also be the most unproductive. ”

"Our way? But the work we do is not exactly the same. ”

"In short, we all want to speak by our performance, and as we do now, I want to test my reasoning by evidence and evidence."

"Or at least to rule out some false inferences." As soon as Chen Shijie added this, he felt that he had said the wrong thing again, and smiled apologetically.

Qiao Zhen didn't mind how precious such a simple and sincere person was now.

"But I see that Team Joe doesn't seem to be very supportive of your work?"

Qiao Zhen couldn't help but laugh a little: "You also found out?" Qiao Rao just did it so obviously that Chen Shijie, who was numb to the perception system compared to others, noticed this.

Later, Chen Shijie learned that Qiao Raogang not only did not support Qiao Zhen's work, but simply obstructed and attacked everywhere. And Qiao Zhen, who is also like a copy of Lao Qiao, recognized this matter of criminal investigation, and was ready to face all the challenges at first, but even Lao Qiao did not estimate his daughter's persistence and perseverance.

By the time everyone retreated from the survey site again, night had fallen, and the people on the road were all office workers who worked overtime and returned late. Everyone looked out the window speechlessly, there was no substantial progress in the investigation work, and the atmosphere in the car was a little low and dull, and everyone was thinking in their minds about what was the deviation that made the case like a quagmire.

The investigation work is not day and night, but the enthusiasm is decreasing little by little, at this time Zhang Chengcheng proposed to be the east, don't order takeout, and invite the people in his group to go to the restaurant for a light meal and relax. Everyone was tired and tired, and it was the point of hunger that raised their hands in agreement.

When you go to the restaurant near the unit and sit down, the boss enthusiastically hands over the menu: "You look at it first, order it directly or report the number, and I'll help you make a table." ”

The boss was a soldier, and it is said that there are also police officers among his relatives, so every time I see them working overtime, I always greet them very politely, and I must have admired their work intensity very much.

Zhang Chengcheng didn't ask for other people's opinions, and directly handed the menu back. Everyone is too familiar with the boss's road, basically the dishes ordered, there will be more than one-third of the dishes, the color and flavor are complete, there is nothing to worry about. At this time, Old Qiao said, "You drink tea first, and I'll go smoke a cigarette and come back." ”

Recently, the ban on smoking in Lincheng has been strictly grasped, not only all commercial places are non-smoking, but also many non-smoking signs have been added to office spaces. Some leaders openly took the lead in proposing: "Don't smoke during meetings." Lao Qiao, who originally disagreed, was reminded by his apprentice Zhang Chengcheng that he gradually developed the habit of not smoking in the car with female comrades.

It's really troublesome, he has a little idea of quitting smoking, and he doesn't seem to have too much motivation. Alone, he was used to no one caring about him. Thinking of this, he slowly walked out of the hotel a little lonely, Zhang Chengcheng glanced back and didn't go out, he knew that the master liked to smoke quietly alone when he was upset.
