Extra: Hunter (8)

Although this Pujiang brand watch is not a precious item, it is very commemorative. I think that when the two elders got married, Uncle Hua specially gave a Pujiang brand watch to Mrs. Li as a token of love. It was considered a very expensive wedding gift at the time. Later, with the change of the times, Pujiang brand watches gradually lost their competitiveness, and under the tide of major brand-name watches conquering the market, it faded out of people's sight. The watch that Uncle Hua gave to Mrs. Li has long been damaged and cannot be repaired.

In recent years, with the prevalence of nostalgia, some people have begun to advocate national brands, and many time-honored brands that have disappeared have gradually begun to return to the public eye. As a major national industry in Pujiang City, Pujiang brand watches have once again been accepted by the public and returned to the market.

This year, it happened to be the 50th anniversary of the marriage of the two old people, and the children specially found the original store of Pujiang brand watches for the sake of filial piety, and bought a pair of watches for the elderly. The second elder who received the gift was very happy. Mrs. Li locks her watch in a drawer like a treasure, while Uncle Hua likes to wear it everywhere to show off to others. Because of this, he was often warned by his wife. Not long ago, Uncle Hua almost lost his watch when he accompanied his wife to the vegetable market to buy. When she got home, the old lady confiscated his watch and locked it in a drawer at home, along with her own.

However, Uncle Hua always thinks about the watch in his heart, and if he doesn't wear the watch, his heart will be gone. So, he secretly took out the watch from the drawer behind his wife's back. However, on the afternoon of June 18, he wandered to the Beijiang vegetable market alone, and after walking around, he found that his watch was missing, and he immediately sweated. But, no matter how Uncle Hua looked, he just didn't find the watch. That night, he lay on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, thinking about how to explain this to his wife. Uncle Hua, who tossed all night and didn't come up with a good solution, got up early the next day to go to the park to exercise as usual, but listened to the old man who exercised together talk about a wounding case that happened in the forest park in the north of the city a few days ago. I don't know which tendon is wrong with Uncle Hua, he quietly walked into the woods alone, picked up the stone on the ground when there was no one around, and smashed it on the back of his head. Although the attack is not heavy, after all, he is old, and he faints on the spot when he goes down with a stone. When I woke up, I had already been taken to the hospital. Subsequently, he lied that he had been attacked and that his watch had been snatched.

When the truth was revealed, Huang Fangyuan and Wang Xiangrui sighed, not knowing whether to be glad that they had solved this riddle, or to be strangled by the old man's stupid behavior, or to be angry that they wasted a lot of time solving the case for a case that did not count.

On the other side, Mrs. Li had already beaten her chest and cried so much that she couldn't stop complaining: "You old man, let me tell you what's good?" How can you be so stupid? It's a trivial matter to lose the watch, what do you want me to do if you have three long and two short? You stupid old man......"

In order to avoid causing too much commotion in the ward and disturbing other patients, Huang Fangyuan and Wang Xiangrui hurriedly persuaded the old lady before she lost control of her emotions. After the efforts of the two, the old lady finally calmed down.

"One thing, I still have doubts." Huang Fangyuan looked at Mrs. Li and said, "Big Brother just said that he secretly took the watch behind your back, but I remember that on the day of the crime, you told the police that the watch he was wearing was missing, but the big brother was still in a coma at that time, how did you know that the watch had been lost?" ”

There were still tears in the corners of Mrs. Li's eyes, she sighed lightly, and said honestly: "I am cleaning up the things at home every day, I know very well where to put things, how can I not know such an important thing when it is gone." Actually, I knew it the day the old man took it, and I thought to myself, forget it, when he is old, he will wear it if he loves it, and if he doesn't wear it now, will he take it to the coffin? I knew that this kind of thing would happen because of this watch, so I might as well let him wear it casually. As she spoke, Mrs. Li's tears burst out of her eyes again.

She walked to the side of the bed and took her wife's hand, and said to Uncle Hua in a choked voice: "You like that watch so much, you can wear it if you want to wear it in the future, I won't stop it." I hope you don't do this kind of stupid thing again. ”

Looking at all this in front of them, the "Thunderbolt Duo" felt very uncomfortable, they really couldn't find words of consolation, so they had to leave. Before leaving, Huang Fangyuan specially instructed the old lady to take the time to go to the police station to go through the formalities and take the watch back.

When Huang Fangyuan and Wang Xiangrui walked out of the gate of Shibei Hospital, it was already past 11 o'clock at noon.

"It looks like we do need to go back and re-examine the case." Huang Fangyuan said to Wang Xiangrui beside him.

But before the two of them returned to the police station, Huang Fangyuan received a call from Lin Xuan, informing him that the leader of the institute was looking for him in an urgent matter and asked him to return to the police station quickly.

"Looking for me in such a hurry, does the 'hunter' have a clue?" Huang Fangyuan asked on the phone.

"No, there's no news from the Hunter yet. There is a media coming to the door to inquire about the case. Lin Xuan said on the other end of the phone, his voice full of anxiety and anxiety.

"How can the media come to the door?" Huang Fangyuan sat in the passenger seat, frowning, full of doubts, "Isn't this kind of thing handled by the political department of the sub-bureau in general media interviews?" We simply don't know how to deal with the media. Anyway, you should talk to us beforehand, so that we can be prepared, at least tell us what to say before facing the media? ”

"It is said that the political department does not seem to know about the media's approach." Lin Xuan explained, "When Deputy Director Cui and the leaders of the sub-bureau were communicating on the phone just now, I listened to it next to me, and it was said that they came to us directly. The victim of the first case died at around 8 p.m. last night. The family members were dissatisfied with the progress of our case, questioned our ability to handle the case, blamed us for our ineffective handling of the case, and stabbed the case to the reporter of the Pujiang Evening News overnight. You know that the media likes this kind of material the most, they stare at the government departments all day long, and they wish that we could do more, so they can pull on their pigtails and write reports gloating......"

A bunch of grumbling words behind Lin Xuan, Huang Fangyuan didn't have the heart to listen to it, he kept urging Lao Wang to drive quickly, and he wanted to rush back to the place as soon as possible to see what the situation was now. It's really a splash and a wave of it.
