On the evening of June 19

Located in Jiangbei District in the northeast corner of Pujiang City, Shibei District is home to a large number of old factories, old communities and a university cluster, as well as the largest forest park in the city center, Shibei Forest Park. The special geographical location has created a good security environment here. In the past ten years, the number of cases in Shibei District has been at the lowest level in the whole Jiangbei District and even the entire Pujiang City. As a police station in the jurisdiction, the Shibei Police Station has been in a corner of security for a long time. The police officers who work here are often envied, jealous and hated by the police officers of police stations in other jurisdictions.

However, this comfortable situation was shattered nine days ago. A vicious case of blunt force injury occurred in Shibei Forest Park, which made the Shibei area the focus of everyone's attention overnight. In the morning, a similar case occurred there again, and everyone from the director of the Shibei Police Station to the police looked solemn. There was a tense atmosphere throughout the office.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, an office on the third floor of the Shibei Police Station was filled with smoke, and Huang Fangyuan, who was on duty that day, sat at his desk on the right side of the door, with his back to the window, a wisp of green smoke was wafting out from between the index and middle fingers of his right hand resting on the table, and a half-burned cigarette with half a piece of soot stayed motionless on his fingertips. Apparently, the cigarette has not been smoked by the smoker since it was lit. And in Huang Fangyuan's hand, nearly 10 cigarette butts had been piled up in the disposable water cup that he used as an ashtray.

Sitting at the desk opposite Huang Fangyuan was an old policeman of his age. This person's name is Wang Xiangrui, and everyone habitually calls him Lao Wang. He and Huang Fangyuan have been partners for many years, have handled many difficult cases, know each other's working methods well, cooperate very tacitly, and have the reputation of "Thunderbolt Duo" in the firm.

At the two desks on the left side of the office sat two younger policemen, one in his mid-thirties, and the other looked younger, less than thirty. These two people are the policemen who appeared in Shibei Park during the day, and were later sent by Huang Fangyuan to be transferred.

At this time, several people were studying and analyzing the facts of the two cases of vicious injuries that had occurred.

The cigarette ash in Huang Fangyuan's hand finally couldn't support it, and quietly broke into two, spilling all over the back of his hand, and also pulled him back to reality who was in a trance.

Huang Fangyuan said slightly apologetically to the two team members who were reporting to him: "Sorry, I was a little distracted just now. Lin Xuan, please say it again, I sent you to contact the family of the injured in this case this morning, how did you get in touch? ”

"Boss." The young man in his early thirties said, "That's right, the injured man's home is in the park new village near Shibei Park. We called his home all the way to his house, but there was no answer. After Xiaoge and I arrived at his house, we knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered the door. The knock on the door alarmed the next-door neighbor. After following up with our next-door neighbors, we learned that the house in Park Village was the daily residence of the injured and his wife. The second elder has two daughters and a son, both of whom are now married and have another residence outside. Usually the injured and their spouses live here, and the children take turns to visit them once a week or so. The injured person has a habit of exercising early in the morning, while his wife usually goes to the vegetable market and supermarket. Both will return home around 9 a.m. When we learned about this from our neighbors, we waited at the door for the injured man's wife to come home. It was almost nine o'clock, and the old man really returned. When the old lady heard the news of the old man's accident, she almost fainted with fright. We took her directly to the hospital at her request......"

"How are the old man's injuries?" Without waiting for Lin Xuan to finish speaking, Wang Xiangrui interjected and asked.

Ge Bin, another policeman who was declared by Lin to be Xiaoge, said: "Fortunately, the injured are not in danger of life when we arrive. Although he was being observed and treated in the intensive care unit at the time, the doctor said that there was no serious problem, and if there were no symptoms of persistent bleeding in the brain, he could be transferred to a general ward after one night of observation. The boss was in the hospital at the time, am I right? ”

Under Ge Bin's gaze, Huang Fangyuan nodded silently.

Ge Bin then continued: "Although the injured person is not in danger of life, because he was hit the head, he left a wound of about 5 centimeters on the lower right side of the back of his head - the doctor did suturing it - the injured person also showed symptoms of concussion, and his consciousness has not recovered for the time being, and he is now in a coma and needs to be hospitalized for observation for a period of time." At present, it seems that we will not be able to learn from the injured person in a short period of time. ”

Ge Bin spread his hands and put on a helpless posture.

"Of course, we didn't get nothing." Lin Xuan continued Ge Bin's words and said, "One thing that needs to be added is that during our conversation with the injured man's wife, we learned that a Pujiang brand watch worn by the injured man was missing. The watch was bought by their children as a 'golden wedding' gift to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary. Although it is not a precious watch, as a 'famous brand' in Pujiang City in the last century, the significance of their generation is extraordinary. What's more, under the impact of marketization, the output of Pujiang brand watches has shrunk to the point that there is very little left. Now wanting to buy Pujiang brand watches on the market is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. The injured people's watch was still the only remaining Pujiang watch store after their children inquired for a long time. They deliberately drove there to buy it back. Pujiang brand watches are the memories of their era, which are very commemorative, and they both cherish them. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Xuan sighed for a long time.

Unlike Lin Xuan's melancholy about the decline of the time-honored brand, Ge Bin seems to only care about the case itself.

"Boss, could this wounding case be the same person as the head-knocking case nine days ago?"

Huang Fangyuan did not answer. His brows furrowed, lost in thought.

Wang Xiangrui, who was on the side, took over the conversation and said, "It's too early to draw conclusions. Yesterday, I heard from the old Tang of the next group that the vicious injury case that they had received nine days ago that also occurred in the forest park had been formally investigated by the serious crime team of the sub-bureau. However, due to the fact that the injured are still unconscious, coupled with the lack of eyewitnesses, it is impossible to investigate the incident, and the progress of the criminal squad is very slow. However, according to Lao Tang, the condition of the injured is not optimistic, and it is still a question of whether he can wake up......"

After hearing Wang Xiangrui's words, Huang Fangyuan came back to his senses and continued: "After the incident of hurting people this morning, the leaders of the bureau attached great importance to it, and the serious crime team also sent people to understand the situation in time. In the afternoon, Cui and I were specially called to the criminal investigation detachment for a meeting, which was personally presided over by Deputy Director Xia. At present, the meaning of the criminal squad is that there is limited manpower and cannot be rolled out to carry out in-depth investigations, and the preliminary investigation and disposal work will be handed over to us to continue, and if there are clues that this wounding case and the previous case were committed by the same person, we will then combine the cases. At that time, the case will be transferred to the Crime Squad and we will assist them in their investigations. ”

"Let's check it out first? They are worried that another case will be smashed into their own hands! Lin Xuan said in a slightly mocking tone.

Wang Xiangrui glared at Lin Xuan and reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense, this case is now supervised by Captain Xu of the criminal team, but he has been paying attention to the progress of the investigation of the case." ”

"The eyes of the gang have been staring at us, we can't be careless! Xiao Lin and Xiao Ge, I will go to the hospital again tomorrow morning to see the condition of the injured. As long as I wake up and can speak, I will make a record first, and give me a detailed understanding of the circumstances of the case and the characteristics of the suspect. Huang Fangyuan made a concluding speech, "After running for a day, everyone is tired, and if there is no duty task, go to rest, and continue tomorrow morning." ”
