182.White Jade Buddha (2)
Thoughts are deflected. At present, the civilian work of the Zhuzhen Police Station was arranged by Zhang Ji for me. A year ago, I started with ...... The isolated island returned to reality, and after standing downstairs in the community for a long time, he couldn't make progress. The room on the sixth floor, where he lived for two years, was invaded by that person at some point, and his shadow was everywhere in the house. Even the gallery can't open that door.
If you don't look back, why don't you forget? Since there is no fate, why do you need to swear today? Like water without a trace, tomorrow and night, there is no strange way.
decided not to look back, everything related to him ...... Abandon them all. It was the landlord who contacted the landlord to vacate the two rooms.
When I turned around, I squinted, and Zhang Ji was standing not far away, his face as solemn as ever.
I thought he would come out of the final battle, but I didn't think he would come to me. It's just half a month, and it's like a world away, and it feels strange and unusual to face people who are familiar with it.
Zhang Ji walked up to me and asked, "Where are you for so many days?" ”
couldn't help laughing, Zhang Ji was still Zhang Ji in the end, no matter when he was on business, he looked at him silently for a moment and asked, "Can you not say it?" You should know that Xu Jianglun is dead, and the case is closed. ”
His well-versed eyes were fixed, and he really turned around and walked to the police car on the side of the road without asking, but stood next to the car door and turned back: "What are your plans?" I pondered for a moment and asked him, "Can you help me?" ”
Whatever the reason, the only person I knew was him.
The painting that I once loved became no longer important after a thousand sails, and I didn't want to hold a paintbrush anymore, because my heart was no longer calm. What else can I do besides drawing? Looking through all kinds of things in his mind, it seems that there is no other specialty except criminal psychology.
Later, Zhang Ji introduced me to the police station in Zhuzhen, where I became a civilian, responsible for sorting and filing case materials. In the first two months, Zhang Jihui occasionally made a phone call to inquire about his adaptation, and then he did not contact him again because he was busy with other cases.
didn't expect that after more than half a year, it was from this strange Liang Zheng that he heard the name of Zhang Ji again; I didn't expect him to come to Zhuzhen, and he actually got Zhang Ji's recommendation, so Lao Li asked me to assist him by accident or by pre-arrangement?
My suspicion was not shown on my face, but the long silence made Liang Zheng look aware of it. My heart sank, and I secretly denied it, he couldn't know my past, Zhang Ji is not a talkative person.
Sure enough, I heard him say: "Although Zhang Ji didn't explain why your logical ability is beyond ordinary people, you must be outstanding if you can get his special recommendation." I won't hide it from you, this time I came to your bamboo town in the name of investigation, but I actually came along a line. I hereby formally present to you: I need your assistance. ”
I groaned and asked, "Is there a Zhang Ji number?" ”
Liang Zheng was stunned, then smiled and asked, "You don't believe me?" ”
I didn't keep quiet, and after some incidents, distance became my principle, even for colleagues who had been working for more than a year, I kept a certain distance from them. Trust this thing, and with a lonely sarcasm in my heart, it has left me.
Liang Zheng also took out his mobile phone and searched for Zhang Ji's number and dialed it directly. I received the hand to push the car door and walked to the side where Liang Zheng couldn't hear it, the phone rang a few times and was picked up, and a familiar and unfamiliar cold voice asked on the other side: "Brother Liang, what's the matter?" ”
Slightly silent, he spoke: "It's me." ”
There was silence on the other end.
I got straight to the point and asked, "Did you recommend me to Liang Zheng?" ”
Zhang Ji replied: "Yes." ”
"Why? I thought you understood, that's why you arranged for me to work as a clerk in the town. ”
Zhang Ji: "Isn't the silence time enough? ”
I frowned and didn't say anything.
He added: "What Brother Liang wants to do is not difficult, you can help if you can, and refuse if you don't want to help." I'm just making a recommendation, he followed a line in Heizhugou back then. ”
sat in the car again and returned the mobile phone to Liang Zheng. "How?" he asked. Did Zhang Jina get the answer? ”
Listening to that tone, I glanced at him, and I used to think that he was as cold as Zhang Ji, but at this time, a feeling of evil coldness arose, and there was also a gloom between his eyebrows. It's not that he's hiding deeply, it's that I didn't pay attention to him before that and I didn't analyze him.
Turning his head, he stared at his face and said, "Zhang Ji said that you came to Zhuzhen along the line of Heizhugou." ”
Liang Zheng smiled: "It seems that you have made a decision." I paused, bowing my head.
Liang Zheng started the car and said as he drove: "Have you heard of the Heizhugou case three and a half years ago?" I shook my head quietly. He said: "Also, after so long, the case has been pressed again, and it is not surprising that you don't know." Let me tell you a little bit about it. ”
Immediately after the road from the town to the police station, Liang Zheng briefly and concisely stated to me the case about Heizhugou, this version was more specific than what I had heard at the beginning, but the content was much the same. When the car stopped, I asked, "So the purpose of your visit is to check on the stolen white jade Buddha of the Chen family?" ”
Liang Zheng nodded: "For the past three and a half years, I have been tracking that dark organization, and Bai Yu is the only clue they have revealed to the world. Large and small white jade flows in the market, but the root cause has not been dug out, and it is only in the past half a year that some clues have been found. ”
"Do you suspect that Bamboo Town could be another stronghold of that organization?"
Liang Zhengxi's cold eyes showed praise: "You are very keen." ”
It's not that I'm keen, but that any action of a person has a motive for a purpose, and since he Liang Zheng is leaving the city police department and not waiting to run to this town, there must be a major clue here. The white jade Buddha appeared on Chen's Wang Qing for the first time, and he didn't dare to tell the truth when he was stolen, and there must be something strange and greasy inside.
It stands to reason that Wang Qing only needs to be taken back to the police station for interrogation, but Liang Zheng is afraid of startling the snake and decides not to move this line for the time being. On the surface, the leadership is still inspecting and reviewing the cases that occurred in Zhuzhen throughout the year. I asked him privately why he didn't discuss these with Lao Li, and he only sneered and asked, "What does it take for an organization to take root in one place?" ”
I knew it right away.
Since Xu Jianglun was able to infiltrate the H City Police Station to cover the sky with one hand, it is natural that there are forces that can infiltrate this small police station in Zhuzhen now. I'm afraid that Liang Zheng found me for other reasons: first, with Zhang Ji's recommendation, I must be excluded from the bribed forces, and Liang Zheng needs someone to help him break into here; Second, I am the person who knows all kinds of cases in the whole firm, and I can sort out suspicious cases in the shortest possible time.
That night, the dream continued.
Wake up at dawn and be tired. It's like being plucked with a string that has been suppressed for a long time, and once it comes out, it's impossible to press it down again. When I heard the words "Heizhugou" from Zhang Ji's mouth, no, I should be standing on the street, and when I heard the "White Jade Buddha" in the conversation between Wang Qing and my aunt, I couldn't be calm.
Even if those things and that person are clearly engraved in a position that is not easy to be turned over, I have learned stability, distance, calmness, silence, and perseverance in this peaceful bamboo town. The unforgettable memories of tossing and turning were shattered into glass in a hundred turns, and I stood in the wind and swept them into the darkest corners of my heart, and it didn't matter anymore.
It is destined that some things will be floated in the calm heart lake, and it is also destined that some things will not be erased even if they are silent again and again.
But even if I knew that the past had always been there, and I couldn't erase it, I never thought that one day the clouds would be split, and I would inevitably have to face it.
I was on the road to find Chu City, with some people.
was to assist Liang Zheng in investigating the "white jade theft case", but he didn't expect to gather all the large and small cases within a year, but he found out a few cases related to property, and once investigated, there were traces of white jade.
This time, Liang Zheng invited several parties back to the police station under the pretext of verification, and he personally made a record of the questioning. Lao Li asked me several times if there were any special circumstances in these old cases, but I shook my head and said I didn't know. But after the review was completed, Liang was walking on the street late at night, and when he turned around, he only said two words to me: Chu Cheng.
I was there at the time, wondering if my ears had heard it wrong, how could the "White Jade Case" be involved...... Chu City? The name of that place is buried in the depths of memory, and just listening to Liang Zheng mention it is like being pierced by a needle, and the sting is abnormal.
Liang Zheng didn't know the unrest in my heart, he said that most of these lost belongings were mainly white jade Buddha pendants, and there were no large pieces, but even that small piece was worth twenty or thirty thousand. The reason is that Bamboo Town was originally not called Bamboo Town, but White Jade Town, not because it produced white jade, but because there was an ancient legend.
Legend has it that many, many years ago, there was a plague in this town, and many people died. Until a traveler passed through the town, he did not know how to drive out the plague, and the people were very grateful to him and wanted to keep him. He shook his head and said that he was a lonely person in this world, and there were some things that had accompanied him for a long time in the mulberry field, and he had passed through the vicissitudes of the sea, and he couldn't give it up. The oldest man in town asked him why he was so persistent, since he was already destitute. He said that these are the only things he has left, how can he be willing to throw them away?
Later, when the traveler left, he left a stone for Lao Suo, saying that if there was another sickness, he would sink it in the water, and then give everyone the water to drink. The stone was pure and immaculate, and the texture was smooth, like white jade. So everyone began to spread that the faraway traveler was the incarnation of the White Jade Buddha, who had come down to do good deeds to save the world. For this reason, everyone also built a Buddha with his appearance, and buried the white jade stone under the stone in front of the Buddha.
It's just that during the Cultural Revolution, not only was the Buddha statue pushed off, but the stone was also missing, and then Baiyu Town was renamed Zhuzhen. But this legend has been handed down, so the people of Bamboo Town have special feelings for the White Jade Buddha and believe that it can drive away disasters and take refuge.
The root is not here, the root is...... Although white jade is precious, it is not a rare treasure, and white jade Buddha is sold in jade shops in the city. If the jade is popular, there will be many people with white jade Buddhas in Bamboo Town, but this is not the case. The Buddhas sold on the market are mainly Maitreya Buddha and Guanyin, but the white jade Buddha stolen by the Chen couple is the appearance of the traveler back then. <
