Chapter 53: Deadly Joke
A woman's voice came from the other end of the phone again, soft and glutinous, and the big voice that really spoke to Luo Ya was in a different style.
Lu Zheng's laughter was apologetic: "Listen, in fact, sometimes, there is a woman around you who also has a lot of troubles, and I envy you for being single." Say, calling me isn't just to hear what I have to say! ”
"Yes, I want you to help me look up Mike's information in Philadelphia, I want to know which welfare home Mike was in China before he was adopted by his adoptive parents in the United States?"
"Why, isn't the case over for so long, why do you want to investigate Mike?"
"No, a recent case involved one of Mike's clients when he was a lawyer, so the idea of investigating Mike's background came to me. His urn has been stored in the cemetery in City B, a wanderer who has been wandering for many years, I think he should want to return to his roots! I want to help him find his family. After all, he embarked on such a road of no return, which has a lot to do with his life experience. ”
He can't say that the clown has reappeared! Besides, the clown in City F can't be 100% sure that it's the clown in City B.
He didn't want to stir up a thousand waves with one stone, and he didn't want to disturb Lu Zheng's peaceful life.
Lu Zheng didn't hesitate for a moment, and agreed very simply, saying that it was just a gesture. After all, he had lived in Philadelphia for so many years, and it shouldn't be difficult to investigate someone.
Before leaving the phone, Lu Zheng said that he would return to China next month to deal with some things, and he would go to see Grandpa Luo again by the way, and meet Yi Tian again by the way.
The conversation at the end was much easier.
"What? Are you bringing that little girl of yours to see me? ”
"Maybe! Take a look then, and if the clinic is not busy, it is okay to bring her back with you, after all, her hometown is in City C. ”
This transatlantic phone call lasted long enough, but it made the nervous mood that had been in the past few days much easier.
Wang Tong called, and his mood was not very high.
"Yi Tian, where are you? I'm going to look for you. ”
"What's wrong? Aren't you with Xu Fan? ”
"Damn, I'm bored, we're staring at the foreign teacher named Amber, I'm sick in the car at the school gate all morning, and I want to come out and move my muscles."
"Alright! Let's go to the Tianfutang classroom to meet in a moment. ”
Wang Tong's voice was obviously not very emotional.
"Yi Tian, I found that since you went to Taiping Town, your whole person has become a god, should you not change from a senior god to an authentic Christian! Can you invite me to eat a light meal at noon, I have a stomachache from eating chili peppers these days. ”
"Get out, love doesn't come. Do you understand the local customs, I heard Liu Xing say yesterday that there is a boiled fish in the people's shopping mall that is not bad, you come over and I will invite you. ”
"Yes, if I go to such a boring place, I might as well stay in the car with Xu Fan, just to catch up on sleep."
"What's the matter, don't you eat boiled fish?"
"Instead of expecting you, I should expect Xu Fan, anyway, this baby owes us a big meal. I asked him to treat me to my favorite food. As for you, be careful not to choke on the spicy soup of boiled fish. ”
Putting down the phone, I glanced at the book of "Deadly Jokes" on the desktop. The clown on the cover is grinning and pressing the shutter on his camera, looking at himself with a deeper meaning behind that big red lip.
Suddenly, I felt that this admiration was familiar, that clown, every time he met him, he presented it in a mocking manner, was he laughing at his own incompetence?
The parking lot of the hotel, the car distribution of the Chenglou Branch, the Volkswagen car that moves all over the body when the engine moves.
Liu Xing originally intended to give his own off-road vehicle to Yi Tian, but Yi Tian refused.
Liu Xing felt very sorry, the cars in the bureau were almost like this.
He said: "Even if you can take a taxi, I will try to reimburse you no matter how much it is." ”
Of course Yi Tian wouldn't do that, this car reminded him that when he first entered this industry, Master Ma who took him was driving the Volkswagen police car that was dancing all over his body as soon as he drove it.
At that time, I didn't feel anything, but I felt that it was a kind of awe for police work.
There was just one time that left a deep impression on him, that day, he was having lunch with his master at a roadside shop, when news came from the police station that there had been a robbery on West Street, and the suspect was fleeing towards East Street on his motorcycle.
East Street is only a few hundred meters away from where they eat.
The master drove the car to East Street, and the suspect was very unlucky, and when they met on a narrow road, they could have caught the suspect safely.
At this time, the old broken car fell off the chain at a critical time, it turned off the fire, and it couldn't catch fire.
Yi Tian and Master's two legs naturally failed to run past the wheels of the suspect's motorcycle.
At that time, the director of the police station severely criticized the two people, and the master accepted them all without saying a word.
At that time, Master Ma Chao's words made Yi Tian remember deeply.
"As a police officer, letting a suspect escape from under your nose, any excuse is not an excuse, dereliction of duty is dereliction of duty, there is nothing to justify," he said. ”
Yi Tian was unconvinced: "Master, it's obvious that the classic car is in trouble." ”
Master said, "The car can't speak, but the sound of the engine of this car two days ago was not quite right, because I was lazy and didn't repair it in time, so this kind of thing happened today." Do you say it's the car's fault or mine? Details determine success or failure, as a people's policeman, if you are not rigorous, today you are just a robber, tomorrow you may be a murderer. How many excuses do you have to come up with? ”
Master's call that day was a very vivid lesson for Yi Tian since he joined the company.
As a police officer, any negligence can be a big mistake.
This is also the reason why for so many years, he will carefully check the car every morning before going out.
Lots less oil? Lots less water? Does the sound of the engine sound different from yesterday?
The car given by Liu Xing was a little louder, but there was nothing wrong with it overall.
Oil, water, any part is still running normally.
I have to say that Liu Xing is a very careful policeman, full of fuel, and when the car was handed over to Yi Tian, it was obviously just driven from the car wash.
The car drove out of the hotel parking lot and headed for Tianfu Hall.
The cross, which shone in the sun, seemed to show him the way.
He always felt that there should be the answer he was looking for.
Compared with the tranquility of the night, Tianfutang during the day is much more lively and noisy.
A group of elementary school students wearing red scarves came here under the guidance of their teachers.
