Chapter 37: A Friend of Life and Death
After Zeng Lei and Li Manke said goodbye, they dialed Liu Xuanang's phone and asked Liu Xuanang to have dinner with his former colleagues in the police force.
In the evening, Zeng Lei sat with his colleagues from the police force, and everyone drank and talked happily. The moment of getting together made Zeng Lei and his colleagues have to recall the days when they used to work together. Although it is just a job, as criminal police, their job task is to investigate criminal cases, including theft, homicide, fraud and other criminal cases. They fight on the front lines of criminal investigation, often day and night, and are often exposed to extremely dangerous environments. Whether it is searching for clues or arresting suspects, they are all charging forward. They are not just colleagues in the simple sense of the word, they are brothers who are born and die together.
The colleague sitting next to Zeng Lei took a big sip of wine, turned his head and said to Zeng Lei: "Leizi, we all know that this hardship is not easy, but your resignation really makes us unexpected." ”
Several colleagues at the same table also nodded.
The criminal police is the embodiment of justice in punishing evil and promoting good, eliminating violence and peace, and is the guardian saint of the safety of people's lives and property, and is one of the most professional characteristics of the police. After graduating from the police academy, they pass the public security professional knowledge examination, physical fitness and psychological quality assessment and assessment, and pass the public subject examination organized by the competent recruitment authority, and finally they are qualified to become a real criminal policeman. Along the way, Zeng Lei has experienced all kinds of hardships, and his heart has long been mixed.
Zeng Lei's eyes were red, he stood up excitedly, raised his wine glass, and faced everyone: "Although I am no longer a criminal policeman, I can't work with you in the future, but no matter where I am or what I am doing in the future, I will still be the same Leizi you knew before." I will not change, and I will not forget my brothers. After Zeng Lei finished speaking, he poured down the wine in the cup with his head raised. Zeng Lei said from the bottom of his heart, the work of the criminal police makes them have a friend of life and death, and this kind of relationship is the most sincere and selfless friendship.
The colleagues at the table were all touched, and they all stood up and toasted with Zeng Lei.
Zeng Lei has a lot of questions to ask Liu Xuanang, but he has been suffering from no chance. When he saw Liu Xuanang get up to go to the bathroom, he quietly followed. As soon as he walked to the door of the bathroom, he heard Liu Xuanang and another colleague talking inside. Zeng Lei hesitated for a moment and stopped, he was worried that because he resigned and was no longer a policeman, his colleagues would keep the case secret in front of him, after all, the police force had this rule. It was also because of the whole night, no one talked about the work of the recent new cases. So, Zeng Lei secretly stood outside the bathroom door, leaning on the door and listening carefully.
"I want to go to the courthouse tomorrow morning." Liu Xuanang said.
"What are you doing at the courthouse?" Another colleague asked.
"The day before yesterday, I watched the trial video of the female protagonist of a case before her disappearance, and I thought there was no problem, but now that I think about it, I still don't feel at ease, and I want to bring the trial video back, and then take a closer look, I'm afraid there will be omissions." Liu Xuanang replied.
"You're still serious! No wonder the captain asked you to transfer by name! The colleague patted Liu Xuanang on the shoulder.
Liu Xuanang was a little embarrassed, and said modestly: "Don't say that, I also thought of it temporarily." Investigate the case, I don't want to let go of a dead end. ”
Hearing the sound of the two of them turning on the faucet and washing their hands, Zeng Lei walked in, pretending to overhear their conversation, "Xuan Ang, as soon as I walked to the door, I heard you say, 'I don't want to let go of a dead end.'" 'What kind of dead end are you talking about?' ”
"Haha, let's talk!" Liu Xuanang glanced at his colleagues vigilantly.
"Oh!" Zeng Lei pretended not to care, "I heard that you were transferred to Li Manke's team to solve a big case?" ”
Liu Xuanang smiled, "How can there be?" It's the same everywhere. After speaking, Liu Xuanang shook his hand, "I'll go out first!" Liu Xuanang and another colleague walked out of the bathroom.
Regarding Liu Xuanang's tight-lipped mouth, Zeng Lei had already been mentally prepared. He felt that if he could find out a little bit of information, it would not be a waste of time and opportunity. Zeng Lei knew that the estrangement between them began to exist when he resigned.
