Chapter 8: Memories That Have Not Been Dusted
Wang Dong finally regretted why he wanted to go to Xia Zhiqing's troubled waters, how happy it was to be his own policeman in peace, and now it's good, she actually has to take care of Xia Zhiqing's three meals a day, she also said confidently that she wants to take care of Dabai, the conscience of heaven and earth, I think that cat is more well-behaved than you, in addition to eating and playing in a day, except that the spirit is obviously better than that of a domestic cat, I can't see any difference in others.
Wang Dong's cooking skills are not very good, and he is on the verge of starvation, and he will deal with it after eating some instant noodles at dinner, which makes Xia Zhiqing full of dissatisfaction, and always feels that Wang Dong is working against her, clamoring to let Dabai scratch him.
This day is really torturous, when it comes to work the next day, Wang Dong's spirit is not so full, driving the car and talking endlessly about how well-behaved and good Dabai is, Xia Zhiqing, just about to turn into the team's compound, Wang Dong's eyes found that there was a woman standing outside the gate.
What made Wang Dong pay attention was not how beautiful this woman was, nor how fashionable this woman was, a very ordinary woman, about thirty years old, what attracted Wang Dong's attention the most was her eyes, miserable and sad, just her eyes can give people a feeling of life like ashes.
"Is this person trying to report the crime?" Wang Dong pointed to the woman in front of him, and when Xia Zhiqing, who was still talking just now, saw this woman, a smiling face suddenly collapsed, and she couldn't tell what it meant, so she thought about it and said, "Stop." ”
Belch? Intuition told Wang Dong that there was something wrong here, but he knew that Xia Zhiqing would definitely tell him in a while, and after putting Xia Zhiqing down, he saw her trotting to the woman's side, explaining something with an apologetic face, the woman listened to Xia Zhiqing's words, showed a wry smile on her face, shook her head, nodded again, slowly turned around, and walked down the road in the direction away from the criminal police team.
Wang Dong suddenly noticed that this woman's feet were actually missing.
With a stomach full of questions in his heart, Wang Dong, who had parked the car, quickly ran to the office of the first team, now he is more or less a celebrity in the team, and there are many people who greet him, Wang Dong returned with a smile, and when he pushed open the door of the office, he saw Xia Zhiqing sitting in her place at a glance, not knowing what she was thinking, the expression on her face was very difficult to understand, Wang Dong came to the front, pondered for a while, and said: "If I don't ask you, will you say?" ”
Xia Zhiqing thought that Wang Dong would be eager to ask him about that woman, but he took a detour, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "I knew you would ask, if you think you are very capable, then I hope, don't ......" Xia Zhiqing paused and said seriously: "Not only I hope, including all the police in Qingyang City, but hundreds of thousands of people in Qingyang City hope that you can solve this case and let the three unjust souls who died in vain rest in peace." ”
Wang Dong has never seen such a serious Xia Zhiqing, Xia Zhiqing in her eyes is always a lively look, no matter how difficult the case is or how difficult the conditions are, she can always face everything with a smile, but now Xia Zhiqing in her eyes has become a little woman, she does not hide the tears in her eyes, and looks at Wang Dong with expectation, hoping to get the result she wants from his mouth.
"I can't guarantee what the outcome will be in the end, but I can guarantee that I will do my best to handle this case, no matter how difficult it is, and never give up." Wang Dong's expression was very serious, his tone had never been more serious, he could hear how difficult the case was in Xia Zhiqing's mouth, but whenever he thought of the desperate gaze of that woman, he felt that the gaze directly touched the depths of his soul, so he didn't think about it, and directly took the case.
Xia Zhiqing didn't talk nonsense, recalling the case that Gao Hongqi had told her, and muttered: "This case has happened for eight years now. ”
"In the past eight years, how many policemen have racked their brains for this case, and how many policemen have traveled to every village and corner of Qingyang for this case, and have investigated tens of thousands of people, but they have never been able to find that villain, and now, you are here, are you confident that you can find him?"
Xia Zhiqing looked at Wang Dong expectantly, in just over a month, Wang Dong was like a fairy possessed, even solving a big case, if he could continue according to this momentum, maybe this case might also reveal its true image in his hands.
As soon as the heavy burden was handed over to his hands, Wang Dong pondered for a while, nodded slowly, and said, "Although I can't guarantee that the case will be solved, I will definitely do my best." ”
"It's enough to have your words." Xia Zhiqing nodded and began to recall this unsolved case that had lasted for eight years.
Eight years ago, on April 28th, it was a sunny Sunday, three ten-year-old little girls who lived in Pingshi Village, a suburb of Qingyang City, as usual, took their own canned food bottles to the river to catch loaches, until it was dark, when night fell, the three little girls still did not go home, so the three anxious adults have flashlights, go to the river to find, this search is a night, three children are born and do not see the body, so that the three adults are anxious, the matter alarmed the villagers of the entire Pingshi Village, An entire village of people showed up to find the whereabouts of the three little girls.
Wang Dong's heart gradually rose with Xia Zhiqing's words, and he began to worry about the fate of the three little girls, but Xia Zhiqing's words stopped abruptly at this point, tears flowed silently down his eyes, and he also realized that he was wrong, covered up his gaffe and continued: "At eleven o'clock the next day, someone finally found three girls in an abandoned cave on the edge of the ditch, and they ......."
The reddened circles under her eyes are enough to prove how uncomfortable Xia Zhiqing is now, as if she empathizes, she turned her head sideways to wipe away her tears, waited for a while, and then calmed down a little, and then said: "The entrance to the cave was tightly blocked by thorny branches, but the bodies of the three little girls were still seen, and they ...... All dead. ”
Wang Dong's heart was slammed into a big stone, and even his breathing seemed to be much more difficult, his mouth shook up and down, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start, three young lives disappeared into this world like this, who would be so ruthless, and have a grudge against his family? Then go to the adults, why go to the children.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Dong gritted his teeth and said: "I took this case, if it can't be solved in one year, it will be two years, and if it can't be solved in two years, it will be ten years, and I will definitely not let this brute escape the law." ”
"Someone is already doing it." Xia Zhiqing took out an album from her desk, found a photo of her and an old man from it, pointed to the person on it and said: "Qiu Guoqiang, the last captain of the criminal police brigade, he took the initiative to apply for internal retirement because of this case, eight years, he has never given up, if you want to solve the case, you should go to him first." ”
