079. The Police and Homicide
Tan Jing went to the police station to identify the body, and the murderer fired only one shot, and put him to death. The fatal shot entered the back of the neck and pierced through the left eye, and half of his face was shattered and dripping with blood. Tan Jing stared at the face in silence, the steaming blood had dried up, forming a hard shell and solidifying on his face, he reached out and touched it, as if he had been burned, and quickly withdrew his hand.
A policeman stood at the door with a document: "Do you recognize it?" Isn't it Li Ling from your newspaper? ”
Tan Jing's throat was tight, and he couldn't speak, so he only nodded reluctantly.
The policeman snorted, and while writing and drawing on the document, he leaned back and shouted out: "My colleague has confirmed, will the family take the body away today, or will they leave it with us for two more days?" ”
Li Ling's daughter-in-law is seven months pregnant, and she is being accompanied by her own sister, crying outside. As soon as his mother heard the news, she fainted, and her daughter-in-law didn't believe in evil, so she had to come and see it in person, but when she entered the police station, she didn't see the corpse yet, she saw the relics first, and her eyes immediately turned black, and she fell softly in her sister's arms, and was helped to the chair to relieve her breath.
Tan Jing went to negotiate with the police: "This is a murder case, don't you investigate?" ”
The policeman didn't raise his head: "Check, of course check!" The so-called Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, and we will not let any criminal go unpunished. ”
Tan Jing said: "There is no autopsy, and the direction of the bullet has not been confirmed, if the family pulls the body away, how can you still check?" ”
The policeman glared at him angrily: "Okay, then leave it here." First of all, the mortuary fee is fifty fiat dollars a day. ”
Tan Jing's current salary is only sixty, and the little policeman in front of him is only twenty or thirty. He frowned, and just as he was about to speak, Li Ling's daughter-in-law had already stood up: "Let's leave today." ”
Tan Jing walked over quickly, wanting to help her, but he was afraid of etiquette, so he could only stand aside: "Brother and sister, they want to investigate the case, and it is not possible to do an autopsy." ”
Mrs. Li shook her head, and the tears that she had finally stopped flowed down her cheeks again, she sobbed lowly, and immediately raised her sleeve to wipe away the tears, and pulled the corners of her mouth down forcefully to control herself from losing her temper in front of outsiders: "They won't check." ”
With the help of her sister, she walked to the table to go through the formalities and signed, and the police asked her for 30 fiat currency, as the hard money for carrying Li Ling back to the police station from the street. Mrs. Li only managed to make up 22 yuan in her pockets, so she could only bet the jade bracelet on her wrist to him. Tan Jing stepped forward quickly and slapped 30 pieces on the table. He moved too much, and the little policeman was not happy to get up, waiting for him to say, "What is your attitude?" Want to make trouble? ”
Tan Jing sneered, and was about to speak, but Mrs. Li grabbed him again: "President Tan, forget it, everyone is gone, what's the point of fighting for these." I'm sorry for you to hire a car for me, and I'll take Dongshan home. ”
Dongshan is Li Ling's word, Tan Jing looked at Mrs. Li uncomfortably, but the latter twitched the corners of his lips, as if he wanted to squeeze a comforting smile to show him. But Tan Jing couldn't stand it, turned around and walked away with his eyes covered.
When he returned, Li Ling had already been carried out, and his body was covered with a white cloth. Mrs. Li did not dare to lift the white cloth to see her husband's remains, but worked together with Tan Jing and her mother's sister to lift Li Ling from the corpse bed to the car.
Tan Jing wanted to accompany his female dependents to send Li Ling back, but Mrs. Li blocked his way and saluted him: "Thank you, President Tan, I really trouble you today." The aftermath of Higashiyama ......"
Her breath trembled, and she barely managed to stabilize her voice: "Maybe it won't be a big deal, please go back and tell everyone in the newspaper office, just say that the Li family won't invite them to a white banquet, and ask them to forgive their sins." ”
"Brother and sister, ......" Tan Jing also wanted to persuade her to continue to investigate, but when the words came to her lips, she felt cruel. Li Ling is his father's old son, the first elder brother, who died on the battlefield, so he gave birth to him again. Now that he is gone, the Li family has no backbone, and only relies on Mrs. Li, a weak woman, to ask her to bear the pain of losing her father while dealing with the police station about the murder, which is really difficult for a strong man.
Tan Jing took out his wallet and took out all the money in it - military tickets, fiat currency, and a few oceans, and a few hundred pieces of ocean, and stuffed them into her hands: "This is a little bit of the heart of all my colleagues in the newspaper, please be sure to accept it." ”
Mrs. Li hesitated, did not excuse herself, and saluted him again: "Thank you, then I will go back first." ”
She declined Tan Jing's request to take her home, and slowly disappeared into the busy streets. Tan Jing stood for a moment, then returned to the police station, asked when and where the murder occurred, and asked if they had any witnesses.
The answer is naturally no, and he started from the heart to talk about the competition, and said: "The tax of the people, the matter of misleading the people, this is how the police station handles errands?" ”
"What did you say?" The policeman slammed the folder on the table and pointed at his nose, "It's against you, tabloid reporter, and you still think of yourself as a person!" ”
Tan Jing looked at them coldly, unmoved by those threats, and only said: "Even if I am a tabloid reporter, I only say that I can't ignore people's lives." ”
"Yo, it seems that you don't just think of yourself as a person, but also as a saint." The little policeman sneered and dragged him out: "Go, go out, take a look at the river, which river in the entire coastal area does not have a few dead people floating?" You are so saintly, go and find out the causes of their deaths one by one, and give them revenge! ”
Tan Jing said angrily: "I am the victim and I came to report the case, if I do this wronged thing, then what use do you want?" You don't want to do this job, just spit out Yu Lu, give up your position, and want to go for those floating corpses on the river, and my wronged colleague Zhaoxue is here! ”
"You!" The little policeman was angry, and when he saw that he was about to punch him, one of his colleagues came in from outside, saw Tan Jing's face, was shocked, and hurriedly came up to stop the little policeman, pulled him aside, and whispered: "You calm down!" This person is the vice president of the Chaosheng Daily, and he has a lot to do with the city hall, and if you annoy him, he will go back and talk to you unintentionally, and you will really have to give up your position! ”
The little policeman was skeptical, and while listening, he squinted his eyes and talked about the competition: "He? Is he so powerful? ”
"The Japanese dare to touch their butts! A few months ago, I entered the Political Security Bureau, and I came out one by one...... Have you ever heard of this kind of thing for the second time? The colleague said anxiously, "Will my brother harm you?" This is a big Buddha, hurry up and send it away, you are busy with your go, I will fight with him haha. ”
As he spoke, he walked over to Tan Jing with a natural smirk: "Ouch! Talk about the president! Long time no see! ”
Tan Jing looked at his face carefully, recalled it, and didn't find the corresponding name in his mind, so he didn't respond with the same enthusiasm, but said lightly: "Long time no see, officer." ”
"The president and noble man have forgotten everything, haven't they," the middle-aged policeman came up to shake his hand and patted him on the arm affectionately, "Lao Liu! When I scratched my tongue, we met, I was at the scene of the blockade, and you gave me a cigarette! ”
As he spoke, he took out a cigarette case from his pocket, picked one out of it, and handed it to Tan Jing: "Come on, good cigarettes, cordyceps, you smoke!" ”
Tan Jing didn't remember what he said, but it didn't matter if he remembered it or not, this person was just here to send him, not to make friends. Tan Jing didn't take the cigarette, but only pushed his hand back: "Quit, don't bother, you call the police officer just now, and leave after dealing with my colleague's murder." ”
"Hey, then I'm stunned, I can't do any work, what kind of case do you have? I'll take care of it, and you'll be satisfied! He pretended not to know anything about the murder and said, "Something happened to your colleague?" Killed someone, or beaten? ”
Tan Jing looked at him lightly: "The case he handled, it doesn't seem that he can't do anything." ”
The police officer saw that he was more energetic, but he was afraid that he would not be able to send him away, so he said "You wait" and turned back, looking for the little policeman in front of him, presumably carrying out some ideological education, and dragged him out to talk to him.
The little policeman walked out of the office in the middle of the night, and his eyes were still awkward when he looked at Tan Jing, but his attitude had changed drastically. He should have just taken the job of a policeman, he has only learned to threaten and intimidate, and has not yet mastered the skills such as whiskering and slapping horses.
"What's that...... Talking about the vice president," he squeezed out a flattering smile, his mouth still shaking, obviously quite reluctant, "The kid is not sensible, he bumped into your old man, you have a lot of adults, the prime minister can support the boat in his belly, don't be like the small general." ”
As he spoke, he bowed to him.
The middle-aged man was still helping his colleague say good things to Tan Jing, reprimanding him as he spoke. Tan Jing was silent for half a minute, sighed inaudibly, and helped him up: "Officer, my colleague's case is ......"
Tan Jing didn't humiliate himself, nor did he bite him to death for the rude behavior in front of him. This generosity moved the little policeman and immediately grabbed the words: "Don't worry, even if I go to heaven and earth, I will help you find out the murderer!" ”
Tan Jing was silent: "Thank you." ”
"You're so kind!" The little policeman bowed to him again, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, "This is our duty as a policeman, hey, if you want to say that you serve this bowl of rice, who doesn't want to work hard, it's just that this world is too fucked, and the heads of our policemen are generally used by those big guys in Jiangkou......"
As he spoke, he handed him the folder that had just been slapped on the table: "Actually, I have examined the body, and I have recorded everything that should be recorded, and after negotiating with the family, I will go to the witnesses to ask questions." ”
Tan Jing looked at his records, and all aspects were there, and they were indeed detailed. He focused on a few key parts, like the little policeman who apologized: "I lost my temper for a while, and I asked the police officer to forgive me." ”
The little policeman hurriedly bowed to him again: "You are too polite, too polite!" ”
Tan Jing left a copy of his business card for him: "If there is any progress in this case, please inform me at any time, if there are any difficulties in the investigation, as long as I can solve it, I will do my best." ”
The little policeman accepted his business card, and shook hands with him during the period: "Thank you, president, I, I, my name is Feng Chen, Wang Zibian's Chen, I promise to handle your case beautifully, if you see our leaders next time, please ...... Speak for me ......"
Tan Jing was silent for a moment, wanting to smile at him, but he couldn't smile anyway.
