At 8:59 a.m. the next morning, the Criminal Investigation Department's Case Research and Judgment Office. Everyone in the Criminal Investigation Bureau is already waiting for the arrival of Director Zhang of the District Public Security Bureau.

At 9 o'clock, Director Zhang walked into the case research and judgment room without a mistake and sat down on the main seat. Next to him were the Director of Criminal Investigation and the Deputy Director of Criminal Investigation who sat down on the rostrum. The captains and deputy captains of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, the Anti-Narcotics Brigade, and the Technical Brigade sat in the first row of the stage. Ran Xiaoke sat in the second row with several detectives, including, of course, his main competitor Li Yunxiao for the post of deputy captain.

Director Zhang's neatly combed back, brand-new police uniform, neat standard tie on white shirt, and platinum-gold metal watch make Director Zhang particularly energetic and energetic.

He looked around and cleared his throat. The audience was silent.

"Now for the meeting. Today, I came to the Criminal Investigation Department mainly to listen to the mysterious murder of three truck drivers. At present, there is a lot of pressure on public opinion, especially the truck drivers who came to the mountain towns are very emotional, and they have reflected a lot in the mayor's mailbox and on the Internet, saying that their safety is not guaranteed, and the masses are also panicking, and there are many discussions, asking us why we have not been able to solve the case for a long time, and the higher authorities have also asked us to solve the case as soon as possible. You are all the backbone of our bureau's case investigation work, and you must shoulder this burden. Long story short, who will report? Director Zhang got straight to the point.

"Ran Xiaoke, you are mainly responsible for this series of cases, you will report it", said the director of the Criminal Investigation Department.

"Yes, report to Director Zhang, we are doing our best to investigate this case, we already have some clues, and we are following the clues to follow the investigation, and we can preliminarily judge ......," Ran Xiaoke reported.

"I won't listen to the specific facts of the case, what I want is the result", Director Zhang interrupted him and said undoubtedly, "I order that the serial murder of truck drivers must be solved within 5 days, and if it cannot be solved, the director and you, the detective, will be dismissed on the spot and the meeting will be dismissed." With that, Director Zhang got up and walked out the door, and his staff immediately followed.

Director Zhang is gone, and his usual tough style has silenced the others who are still sitting in their seats.

After a moment of silence, the Director said.

"Everyone heard Director Zhang's words, Ran Xiaoke, I'll give you 3 days, if you can't solve the case, I'll dismiss you first and dismiss the meeting." With that, the Director also left the table.

The others also got up and walked out of the conference room to go about their business. Some people shook their heads and sighed, estimating that Ran Xiaoke was hanging this time, and some whispered to each other, and burst out with laughter that was immediately stopped.

Among these people, some were secretly happy and had some sympathy for Ran Xiaoke.

Happily, Ran Xiaoke usually works in a hurry, goes straight to the point, and offends some people, or some people are jealous of Ran Xiaoke's repeated cracks in major cases, and there are not a few people who are red-eyed.

Sympatheticly, many people also know that this case is really strange, there is no video at the scene, the organs of the three truck drivers were mutilated, and there are no traces of any value left at the scene. The motive for the crime has also been a mystery.

Li Yunxiao, of course, is also a gloating one, he has been in the Criminal Investigation Department for half a year longer than Ran Xiaoke, and analyzing the current personnel structure of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, one of the two deputy captains may be promoted to the police station as an instructor, and the other may be promoted to captain within the Criminal Investigation Bureau. The positions of the two deputy captains have long been targeted by everyone. An old-qualified detective can take over the position of deputy captain if nothing else, and the other is likely to be produced between Ran Xiaoke and Li Yunxiao.

Li Yunxiao came to the Criminal Investigation Department a year earlier than Ran Xiaoke, he has strong business ability in all aspects, he is exquisite, and he is very good at doing things, and the director and several deputy directors still recognize him, especially he is the second-in-command of the department, Deputy Director Liu, who brought him all the way from the police station, and naturally the two usually have close contacts, after all, Deputy Director Liu still has a certain right to speak, and it can be said that Li Yunxiao has a certain peak in the comparison of forces behind him. Everyone else in the department knows this, and they also recognize Li Yunxiao's business ability, so they are basically optimistic that he can take over the position of deputy captain.

But this pattern was broken by the arrival of Ran Xiaoke. This made Li Yunxiao very uncomfortable.

Ran Xiaoke came to the Criminal Investigation Department a year late, and his transfer was entirely because of his outstanding ability to solve cases, and he broke through several major headaches in the bureau in the past two years, including the case of the female intermediary who originally belonged to Li Yunxiao's hand who was raped and killed when she showed the house.

That case made Li Yunxiao very faceless in the bureau, he was a detective of the Criminal Investigation Department and had not won a person from the police station, and the bureau also held a celebration ceremony at that time in this case, in front of the overall situation, Director Zhang personally awarded Ran Xiaoke a certificate of third-class meritorious service.

Later, Ran Xiaoke was transferred to the Criminal Investigation Bureau, and he successfully solved several backlog cases when he first arrived. Of course, Ran Xiaoke just wants to show his ability by solving the case and strive for the recognition of the organization, for an upright boy like him, he doesn't use his efforts to pay attention to who he offends and who makes him unhappy.

His idea is very simple, that is, to do his job wholeheartedly, he has no interest in those complicated interpersonal relationships at all, he feels that it is a waste of time and life. Criminal police, you have to look like a criminal policeman, it is absolutely impossible for a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, and she is calculating. The words are divided into two ends, he still has some feelings about Li Yunxiao's dissatisfaction with him, for example, when he was eating in the cafeteria at noon, he sat next to Li Yunxiao after cooking, Li Yunxiao had been chatting with others before, and suddenly stopped talking, the air was embarrassed for a while, or turned around and moved to the next table to get together with others, these, Ran Xiaoke looked at them, of course he could feel it, he was not stupid, but he didn't want to offend Li Yunxiao, and he didn't want to deliberately meet anyone in order to do a good job in the so-called colleague relationship. His mind is only on solving the case, which is why everyone has mixed reviews of him.

From the police station to the Criminal Investigation Department, to a certain extent, it is also a kind of reuse. When the Political Department of the bureau was preparing to mobilize Ran Xiaoke, when it visited the police station to investigate public opinion, there were obviously two factions of opinion. A group of people think that Ran Xiaoke is a fair and decent person, dedicated to the public, regardless of personal gains and losses, charging ahead, and is an excellent criminal policeman. Another group of people thinks that Ran Xiaoke is arrogant, arrogant and arrogant, walks almost without greeting people, maverick and so on.

Li Yunxiao didn't say anything unpleasant, he was thinking about watching Ran Xiaoke's jokes in his heart, three days is limited, sunrise and sunset, sunrise and sunset, sunrise and sunset, and soon three days will pass, and then Ran Xiaoke can't pay the difference, he just goes up.

Everyone knows that although Director Zhang only said that if he could not solve the case in three days, he would be dismissed on the spot, but did not say whether he would be rewarded or promoted if he solved the case in three days. But for so many years, everyone knows Director Zhang's style of rewarding and punishing clearly, and when the task is assigned, the more terrible the punishment corresponds to the rewards that can be expected. Although solving cases is a duty and mission, and a task that should be completed, everyone knows that this is also the art of leadership, otherwise how can we mobilize everyone's enthusiasm.

And they were all gone. Only Ran Xiaoke and Zhao Yixin were left in the case research and judgment room.

Ran Xiaoke felt helpless, but he firmly believed that he could solve this case, his willpower was already very strong, countless cases had been solved in his hands, countless mountains had been conquered by him, and years of experience had made him mature.

Cultivating the character of listening to the drizzle from the wind and thunder and seeing the breeze in the thunderbolt is the most precious and sharpest weapon for the criminal police who overcome difficulties.

Relatively speaking, Zhao Yixin is much more immature, and he didn't fully cheer up in the alcohol yesterday, and he was even more depressed after listening to the tame words of the director and the director.

"Master, can you solve the case in 3 days?", Zhao Yixin muttered.

"Gotta be!" , Ran Xiaoke said categorically.
