There was smoke, alcohol, meat, and a hard bed, and if the commode was replaced with a separate bathroom, the confinement room was basically the same as Shen Hong's dormitory.

After half a pot of spirits, Shen Hong was dizzy and slept on the damp and moldy futon for a while, and then was taken out of the prison cell by two guards, first went to the infirmary to put a plaster cast on his broken left arm, and then escorted him into the director's office.

Director Qin Guowen is less than 40 years old, but his temples are gray and wrinkled.

Anyone who sits in the first position of the Dingwu Police Station will have to look premature.

Smelling the smell of smoke and wine on Shen Hong's body, Qin Guowen frowned deeply.

Shen Hong shook his head, reached out and pulled out a tissue from the desk in front of him, wiped the sticky secretions from the corners of his eyes, then rubbed his cheeks twice, and then looked up at the director sitting behind the desk, and saw the gloomy and oozing expression on his face.

"Director." Shen Hong snapped and saluted.

Qin Guowen shook his head, pointed to the chair beside Shen Hong, and said, "They are all graduates of the Yedu Police Academy, in terms of background, you are my junior brother, call me senior brother, sit down and say...... What do you think about killing your immediate boss in public? ”

"Report! It's not killing, it's killing! Bao Jinbo dereliction of duty, evil deeds, and fornication with the rebels, I was ordered by the secret police to execute him according to law! Shen Hong maintained a straight posture and answered categorically.

"Save effort." Qin Guowen made a headache expression and waved his hand impatiently, "I called the Jizhou Secret Police Bureau, and the secret police did not deny it, it seems that Shelby admires you very much." ”

Shen Hong breathed a sigh of relief, sat down slowly, and waited for the director to fall.

Qin Guowen sighed, and then said: "You are doing too badly, poking out such a mess, even if I want to help you, there is nothing I can do." ”

Shen Hong responded while thinking: "Commissioner, Sanquan Lane is a mess, isn't the police station?" You've been in Dingwu longer than I am, and you should be able to tell that this is a mess full of holes. And for you, it's rotten to the point where you can't go uncleaned. ”

Qin Guowen subconsciously glanced at the doors and windows, then looked at Shen Hong, and was silent.

"Senior brother!" Shen Hong accentuated his tone and changed his title, "You are less than forty this year, you have time, and you can afford to wait for another ten years." But even if there is a vacancy in the police department, can you pass the internal review? Even if it's over, what evaluation can you get? Years in office without doing anything? If the hall looks at you like this, there is a chance that you will have an idle job to retire for the elderly, if you can really retire leisurely, it is good to say, but the time bomb of Dingwu City will explode sooner or later, and when it explodes, who will carry the thunder top pot? Is he the head of the Police Department? Or are you going to come to Sanquan Lane every few days? ”

"Shen Hong, I thought you only learned criminal investigation techniques in the academy, hehe, I underestimated you."

The Qin State Wencheng Mansion was extremely deep, and Shen Hong could only see an incomprehensible smile on his face, but he couldn't catch the emotional changes that could be exploited.

After pondering for a while, Shen Hong continued: "Bao Jinbo is the biggest moth in the department, and it is an obstacle that restricts your work, I killed him, and I will bear all the consequences." If I die, or go to prison, the case will eventually be determined to be that the deputy captain of the Dingwu Serious Crime Team has lost his mind and killed his immediate boss in public. ”

"On the contrary, if the case is finally determined to be that the deputy captain of the Crime Squad was urgently ordered to decisively kill the traitors and criminals in the police force, then the credit is yours, and the pressure is on me. Also, the blatant sale of contraband, the hiring of child prostitutes, and treason with the enemy, these are all big news, and I think there are all kinds of reporters on their way now, and when they get to Dingwu, if they can't find me, who will they go to? ”

Qin Guowen got up and made a cup of refreshing strong tea and handed it to Shen Hong, saying: "The Police Department has sent a special case team to do an internal investigation, Bao Jinbo is a piece of shit, as long as the secret police don't deny it, I have a way to help you carry the internal investigation, but I can only help you get here, do you understand what I mean?" ”

He added an accent to the word "internal", which means that he can help Shen Hong carry the pressure from within the system, and the pressure from outside the system must be borne by Shen Hong himself.

Shen Hong heard the sound outside the strings and nodded.

"Well, it's good to understand, and I'll give you a chance to make meritorious contributions." Qin Guowen slapped Shen Hong's right shoulder heavily, "Remember the little guy you brought back, right?" His parents died of illness last week, and there is only one uncle left in the family, who just sold him to Tingchun Yuan the day before yesterday, you now go to the second floor to get a gun, and go to Zhangjiaxiang to ask his uncle to come back to assist in the investigation. ”

"Assist with the investigation?" Shen Hong was stunned.

"Well, investigate the case of Wang Chaoqing's child prostitution. Xiao Shen, you have to move fast, Mr. Wang is such a precious son, and he is still middle-aged. After Qin Guowen finished speaking, he laughed.

Hearing this, Wang Chaoqing was still detained in the office and not released.

Shen Hong was surprised and delighted, recalling the content of Mr. Xu's letter, and immediately understood that Director Qin wanted to use Wang Chaoqing as a bargaining chip to force the Wang family back, and then concentrate firepower on the Ye family.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Hong thought more, the boy's uncle is an important witness, the Wang family cannot let him live until now, presumably he has already died in Huangquan, and Director Qin's so-called "opportunity to make meritorious contributions" is just to find an excuse to transfer him out of the police station, give the Ye family an explanation, and at the same time test the reactions of all parties - just like Mr. Xu said in the letter, Director Qin will never fight a battle that he is not sure of.

If nothing else, the Ye and Wang families will get the news in advance and send killers to ambush in Zhangjiaxiang.

Knowing that Director Qin was pushing himself into the tiger's mouth, Shen Hong had no choice.

Life hangs by a thread, and we have to go desperately to Bo that ray of life.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!" Shen Hong put down the teacup, got up and walked out of the office, changed his police uniform under the supervision and help of two guards, and walked downstairs slowly.

In the hall on the first floor, all 64 in-service police officers of the serious crime team arrived and stood in the hall divided into two teams.

On the left was Bao Jinbo's cronies, and more than a dozen people were huddled behind Yan Xing with their arms crossed, staring at Shen Hong coldly.

The rest of the officers lined up in three rows on the right, looking solemn.

Seeing Shen Hong walking down the stairs, the three rows of police officers on the right took off their police hats in unison, stood up and saluted, and the sound of the heels colliding was uniform, heavy and solemn.

Shen Hong smiled silently and returned the salute to the send-off team.

As he walked towards the gate, he felt that his body was fluttering, and he took a step forward, as if he was stepping on a tightrope, and another step was like stepping on cotton.

Exiting this door is equivalent to stepping into the ghost gate with one foot, but now, there is no way back.

Shen Hongli straightened his collar, stepped out of the gate of the police station without looking back, and met a group of warriors, the leader of whom was dressed in black, smiling and groaning.

"Jiang Mubai of Juying Pavilion is willing to do his best."

It was like a cry in the mountains, and there were echoes in front of the door.

"Juying Pavilion Shishan, willing to help."

"Juying Pavilion Shi Guangwen, willing to help."

"Liu Longhu of Juying Pavilion, willing to help."

"Zhang Xianlong of the Iron Axe Gate, willing to help."

"The Gao family is high, and I am willing to help."

"The Zhige faction is in the right direction, and I am willing to help."

……

In a teahouse on the corner of the street, the old man in the wheelchair looked around and asked curiously, "Xiaoqian, it's so lively over there?" ”

Xu Qiansuan picked up a fragrant tea and said with a smile: "Grandpa, they are ringing the bell." ”

"What bell is ringing?"

"Death knell."
