Chapter 159: The Story of the Police (5)
"Tick Woo Woo T
A police car sped through the streets in the early hours of the morning, as if in a hurry to get somewhere, its tires rolling up droplets of water from the wet ground.
In a city washed by rain, all the colors have darkened.
The light reflects on the potholed and waterlogged street, as if reflecting another fragmented world, and a drop of rain is a turmoil.
It was still drizzling, and there were hardly any people on the streets. A few wandering social thugs seemed to have just come out of the bar, hooking shoulders and staggering around. One of the thugs looked at the whereabouts of the police car and said loudly that he couldn't walk, so he simply got into a fight on the spot, called the police, and drove them to the police station. The people on the side heard it and said that it was a good idea, but some people seemed to be still awake, laughed strangely, and said that there are so many of us, waiting for the police cars to come and take them away one by one, "It's so slow that it's better to wait for the bus!" The rest of the thugs heard this and burst out laughing.
A few passers-by tightened their pockets, buried their heads in the way of bypassing, and avoided this group of gangsters from a distance. The attitude that more is better than less could not be more obvious, as if the police car passing by just now had not become the confidence for them to walk normally.
The audience felt sad. Guessed that this was a consequence of the failure of the arrest operation in the warehouse.
In Red Mask's plan, he was going to edit what happened in the factory warehouse that day and use hacking techniques to spread it wildly. Now looking at the corner of the street scene on the screen, I can see that the red mask has achieved his goal. The police are under-staffed, the gangsters lose their respect for the police, and the residents have reduced their trust in the police.
How is Zhang Jiaju? The audience thought to themselves.
They remember that at the end of the previous scene, Red Mask blew up the factory, both as a cover for the traces and as a cover for escape. Quite a few police officers were buried inside. Zhang Jiaju, as the protagonist, is definitely not so easy to die. But knowing that there is a kind of pain in the world called life is better than death, the audience is very worried about Zhang Jiaju.
"Ugh."
One of the thugs was suddenly hit from behind.
Turning around, he saw that it was a drunkard, drunk even more than them, shaking his body with his head down, and bumping into him without looking.
Zhang Jiaju stumbled a few steps, almost fell, and hurriedly protected the wine bottle in his hand.
The audience almost didn't recognize Zhang Jiaju. At this time, he had messy long hair, which had not been cut for more than a year, his beard was unkempt, his puffy face was loosely drooping, and the corners of his mouth were wounded from nowhere. Those eyes, the once resolute and cold eyes, are now completely gone, only hollow and numb. It's like two people in the past.
From Zhang Jiaju, people can not only see the passage of time, but also the will to be crushed.
When a sharpshooter starts drinking, and a skill that relies on stability gets out of control, you know that person is dead.
The gangster who was hit by Zhang Jiaju was like being touched by a piece of feces, and couldn't help scolding angrily: "You don't have long eyes when you walk?" ”
Zhang Jiaju raised the wine bottle, took a sip, took a sip on his chest, and walked forward without a deaf ear, passing through one gangster after another.
The question was ignored, and the thug felt embarrassed in front of his companion and kicked him in anger.
Zhang Jiaju swooped forward a few steps, flapped his hands like wings a few times, did not fall, turned around, instinctively staggered his legs and stood out, swinging out of the boxing fight.
However, in the next second, he took the initiative to put down his hands, stood up straight, and poured the wine on the surrounding gangsters.
This splash was seen as a provocation to war.
Seven or eight thugs rushed up and punched and kicked Zhang Jiaju.
Zhang Jiaju fell to the ground, spread his limbs like looking for death, let others beat him, and squeezed out a muffled snort from the inside of his body.
In a few chaotic and shaky shots, the audience saw a touch of happiness in Zhang Jiaju's numb eyes. It seems to be thirsty for pain.
Think about it too. Zhang Jiaju, who never missed, confidently led the team to arrest five criminals, but the whole army was wiped out, none of the gangsters were caught, and his own side suffered heavy casualties. Especially when his girlfriend handed over his brother to him, and he ignored his brother-in-law's advice to "wait for support", let emotions occupy his brain, and insisted on pursuing. Not a good brother-in-law, let alone a good captain. Usually called "Detective", "Gun King", and "Instructor" by his colleagues, he lost in the most proud field, and he couldn't save a brother. Living alone on earth is like being in hell.
Zhang Jiaju's downfall to this point is not only because of the punishment of the police force, but also because of his self-punishment.
Zhang Jiaju was beaten and did not fight back, and soon his nose was blue and his face was swollen, his face was covered with blood, and he couldn't see his facial features clearly. His consciousness began to dissipate, and all that remained on his face was a look of relief.
Under the manipulation of alcohol and emotion, the gangsters got high, completely ignoring whether they would beat people to death.
Pedestrians on the road only dared to watch this scene from a distance, and did not dare to dissuade them. Someone was kind enough to call the police, but the police car couldn't show up anytime soon.
Just when the audience suspected that Zhang Jiaju was going to be beaten to death, a young man suddenly appeared, knocking down one gangster after another with a punch and a kick, and his skills were very extraordinary. While fighting, he is still reciting the law, saying that he is exercising the right of legitimate defense, acting bravely in the face of righteousness, and eliminating harm for the people...... In the blink of an eye, all the thugs fell to the ground groaning. The young people still haven't stopped, he gave the gangsters one by one, asking them if they are worthy of their parents and society.
Before Zhang Jiaju lost consciousness, he heard the applause around him and the faint sound of sirens in the distance.
As if hearing the most reassuring of voices, he closed his eyes.
When he woke up again, Zhang Jiaju was already in the hospital bed.
The window is bright, and the surroundings are full of bustle.
Suddenly in such an environment, Zhang Jiaju was not a little flustered, as if he was used to waking up from the hospital bed often.
He first squirmed a few times, felt the pain all over his body for a moment, and his eyes were inexplicably lost, and then he just looked at the ceiling, quietly in a daze. When his mouth is dry, he doesn't want to look for water to drink, and he doesn't wipe off the secretions in the corners of his eyes, so he just puts himself to rest, letting his soul rot. Soberness seemed to him to be a kind of torture, and only by giving up his feelings could he continue to live in human form.
"Fifty? Sister, are you kidding me, you look like you're in your thirties at most! ”
"Oh, hehehe, you young man can talk, hey, give you a pear to eat, fresh, just picked in the morning."
Zhang Jiaju, who fell into nothingness, suddenly heard such a conversation in his ears, and the voice was very close, as close as if the person who spoke was sitting on the edge of the bed.
Turning his head suddenly, Zhang Jiaju really saw a young man sitting there abruptly next to his hospital bed, with his back to him, chatting happily with the person in the hospital bed next door, giggling and holding two pears.
"Who are you?" Zhang Jiaju asked the young man in a hoarse voice.
The young man's ears were very sensitive, and when he heard a faint voice, he turned his head, immediately put down the pear, stood up and saluted, saying that his name was Duan Xiaofeng, and he was the new partner arranged for him by the police force. After speaking, he also diligently picked up the water that had been prepared from the bedside table and gave it to Zhang Jiaju.
Looking at the young, enthusiastic and energetic young man in front of him, Zhang Jiaju looked in a trance, as if he remembered someone, and his eyes were full of nostalgia and sadness for a moment. Blinking and coming back to his senses, Zhang Jiaju lowered his head and took a sip of water, holding it for a long time like drinking, and then said, "You go and apply for a change of person yourself." I'm on vacation, and it's useless to follow me. ”
His eyes darkened, and Zhang Jiaju added: "It's easy to die if you follow me." ”
Duan Xiaofeng lowered his head and peeled the pears and said, "I'm not afraid of death." ”
Zhang Jiaju's lowered eyes seemed to be even more sad.
Duan Xiaofeng continued: "I watched that video. After knowing about that operation, a lot of people were watching our police jokes. Several high-level officials were dismissed; At the grassroots level near the capital, many front-line civilians have been transferred, and some are not even police, for fear that when they are arrested and play some ghost game, their family members will be pointed at gunpoint; When you go out and walk outside, tell others that you are a police officer, and they will look at you meaningfully. I know all of that. ”
Zhang Jiaju's eyes fell on Duan Xiaofeng's body, as if asking, since you know everything, what are you trying to do now.
"It's all temporary." Duan Xiaofeng peeled the skin, took out a knife from his pocket, and said while cutting pears: "No matter what kind of political system, it is impossible for state power to be flawless and not to be abused. But our country has been strong until now because it has a self-correcting system.
You're on vacation, so you don't know that after that operation, the police force has already started to rectify the situation nationwide. There are also a series of reform measures at the grassroots level, which pay attention to the voice of the masses, enforce the law in accordance with rules and regulations, and keep the personal information of each police officer closely guarded...... The society is laughing at us with our stains, but we should admit our mistakes, correct the corrections, wash away the stains one by one, the image has been reversed little by little, and the team is reunited little by little. ”
The pears were peeled a few times, but Duan Xiaofeng ate them by himself, and from time to time he stared at the eldest sister next to the bed and gestured again and again, indicating that the pears were really delicious.
"But there's another stain that can't be washed off no matter how much it is washed, and if it stays there, it will keep reminding the police how wasted." Duan Xiaofeng puffed out his cheeks and said solemnly: "Two months ago, this gang of mask mongrels did another vote, sacrificing many colleagues, but they still didn't catch it. If they are not completely eradicated, this stain will always remain, the people's trust in the police will always be insufficient, and criminals will follow the example and be bold enough to continuously attack the law. So ......" Duan Xiaofeng seemed to finally remember that Zhang Jiaju was the patient, he forked a piece of pulp with a knife and handed it to Zhang Jiaju: "The police need you to come back." ”
Zhang Jiaju took the knife silently, did not eat, and did not speak.
Duan Xiaofeng is like an unattended puppy, opening the window and cleaning up things, his hands and feet are nimble, and he is very busy.
After a while, Zhang Jiaju put the pear aside and asked, "Why are you looking for me?" I've ...... "I've lost so badly." Zhang Jiaju replied with a sigh and pursed lips.
"To grab the crumbs, of course. For more than a year, we have found all kinds of people, but no one has succeeded, and the biggest results and clues are all obtained by you a year ago. Since all kinds of people have failed, it is better to find the one who is most likely to turn defeat into victory among the people who have failed. Duan Xiaofeng said with his eyes that Zhang Jiaju was the one who was most likely to turn defeat into victory.
As soon as the past was mentioned, those failed experiences, and painful memories violently tore Zhang Jiaju's heart.
These are memories that he has tried so hard to avoid for more than a year. Like gauze wrapped around the wound and finally scarred with the wound, it was a heart disease if it was not torn, tearing the flesh and blood blurred, and tasting the pain again. Zhang Jiaju clutched his chest, almost having difficulty breathing.
Duan Xiaofeng knew very well how much damage his words could bring to Zhang Jiaju, but he insisted on doing so. "Facing pain head-on is the first step to getting rid of it." He whispered.
Zhang Jiaju closed his eyes, and he didn't know if he was listening.
The camera flashes back to the end of the operation a year ago. The factory warehouse was blown up, I don't know if it was luck or the bandits' intention to take mercy, the corner where Zhang Jiaju was located had the least bombs, and he and some policemen were lucky not to die. When Zhang Jiaju was fished out in ashes, he insisted on not going to the hospital, and insisted on staying at the scene, so he dug up the bones of his colleagues in a rubble, and finally dug up his hands full of blood and was forced to stop. As soon as he stopped, he did not know what to do, but sat in the midst of the brothers covered with white cloths, lost his soul, and lived as if he were dead.
At the thought of leading the team to face the masked bandits again, Zhang Jiaju was afraid. He wrapped himself tightly in the quilt, turned his back to Duan Xiaofeng, and said weakly, "...... Find someone else. ”
A detective and an old policeman, showing people with his back, shows that he has lost the courage to face difficulties.
In the confrontation with the Red Mask, Zhang Jiaju's backbone had been broken.
Duan Xiaofeng had no choice, so he had to let Zhang Jiaju not be in a hurry to make a decision, think about it first, and he would come over next time.
"That's right." Before Duan Xiaofeng left, he suddenly thought of something: "Your girlfriend came to see you just now, and she asked me to tell you that she made dinner today and waited for you to come over." ”
In a word, Zhang Jiaju, who was drowning in sadness, was brought back to reality.
That night, Zhang Jiaju straightened out his appearance for a long time, shaved off his beard, and treated the injuries on his face. But the shabby clothes and the down-and-out temperament are still not decent. He stood in the hallway downstairs somewhere, hesitating to go upstairs to the appointment. Suddenly, his girlfriend and Duan Xiaofeng walked down from the upper floor. "I knew he was downstairs." Duan Xiaofeng said proudly that if he had a tail, he would definitely wag it around at this time, begging for praise.
"Why are you here?" Zhang Jiaju was more shocked than puzzled.
Duan Xiaofeng snorted, gaged with a smile, and said that Zhang Jiaju's disinfectant water is really powerful as perfume.
But under Zhang Jiaju's cold eyes, Duan Xiaofeng had no choice but to explain his intentions, saying that he was here to deliver something, so he left.
When passing by Zhang Jiaju's side, Duan Xiaofeng quietly handed over something. Zhang Jiaju knew that this was the jade pendant he wanted to propose to at the beginning. "Fell out of your pocket yesterday. I forgot to return you during the day today. Duan Xiaofeng said.
It seems that after that action, Zhang Jiaju's career not only stagnated, but also stagnated emotionally. The planned marriage proposal ended in vain, so he had to keep the jade pendant with him.
"It's not too late to give." Duan Xiaofeng didn't know whether to say himself or Zhang Jiaju, and then left.
Zhang Jiaju carried the jade pendant and went upstairs and entered the house with his girlfriend who was waiting for him. Sure enough, his girlfriend made a sumptuous dinner waiting for him. After the two sat down, there was not much conversation at first, and the people who hadn't seen each other for a long time were unfamiliar everywhere, but after all, they were so familiar that they couldn't say it anymore, and their tone gradually became warmer. When we talked about the recent situation, the topic began to inevitably talk about the evasion and waiting of this year.
According to his girlfriend's meaning, the past is gone, the deceased has passed away, and the living have to go on. She said that compared to everyone dying together, those brothers must be more happy to see that there is still one person who is not dead, especially this is Zhang Jiaju. "They know you, they trust you, and they believe that if you live, you will take good care of the family they left behind. They know that you will treat their parents as your own; Treat their wives as their own sisters; Treat their children as if they were their own. ”
Zhang Jiaju's face, which had been numb for a long time, finally began to be vivid.
"So if you hurt yourself like this again, will you let them down?" The girlfriend held Zhang Jiaju's hand, and there was a wound on Zhang Jiaju's hand that Zhang Jiaju didn't know when. "Ah Le's child is going to elementary school, and Xiaohui's mother heard that her health is not very good...... "She knew that her lover was in a deep quagmire and was about to hide her mouth and nose, and she was gently pulling her lover ashore little by little.
Listening to his girlfriend talking about trivial things, Zhang Jiaju gradually burst into tears.
However, just when the audience thought that Zhang Jiaju's soul was about to be awakened, he took out the hand held by his girlfriend, hugged his head, and said bitterly: "But I still can't forgive myself." I killed them, all because of me. ”
"You didn't kill them." The girlfriend left her seat and hugged Zhang Jiaju: "It was those criminals who killed them." You are also a victim. ”
However, Zhang Jiaju just shook his head sadly, shook his head weakly, and looked like he had a lot to say but didn't dare to say. For example, the details of the original operation, such as his arrogance killed half of his colleagues, and then his cowardice, hesitation and panic, which made him lose three games in a row, and not a single hostage was saved.
But in the end, Zhang Jiaju didn't say anything, just ran out of his girlfriend's house. Only the lonely girlfriend was left sad alone in the warm home.
The audience's chests were stuffy, and they only felt so embarrassed and pitiful.
A broken home.
The younger brother died.
Zhang Jiaju is alive but indulged in the past and can't extricate himself.
While digesting the grief of losing a loved one, the girlfriend watches her lover fall and is powerless.
Three people, all in hell.
Looking at Zhang Jiaju who left his girlfriend's house on the screen and ran to the bar to pour alcohol, Wu Yan couldn't wait to rush in and grab the other party's collar and let him look at the people around him. But he remembered that his eldest brother said that some people will choose to escape when faced with difficulties, because escape is the easiest option. Zhang Jiaju escaped from reality with alcohol, and even if there was no alcohol, he would use other means to escape. For example, when you take the initiative to provoke gangsters to fight, you are likely to feel that death is the ultimate relief.
Wait a minute......
Thinking of Zhang Jiaju's eyes lying on the ground, Wu Yan remembered that not long after the film began, when the red mask was moving outside the high-rise building, he jumped into the sky with his arms outstretched, and there was a flash of relief and relief in his eyes.
Those two pairs of eyes are really similar.
Wu Yan is not sure, if Zhang Jiaju and Red Mask are also thinking about self-destruction, then ...... What is Red Mask running away from?
Thinking like this, on the screen, the camera shifted to the side of the red mask.
In everyone's imagination, the red mask that broke the backbone of the police by himself should have been high-spirited and triumphant.
It turned out to be not.
In a luxuriously decorated room, Red Mask is sleeping on his bed. He doesn't wear a mask, and his face is quiet, so his ferocity and wildness are all restrained. Faced with the face of this good child, no one would have imagined that it was such a young man, ruthless, who committed many major crimes, and the number of policemen who died in his hands was terrifying.
Suddenly, a man and a woman woke him up from his sleep with the sound of a fierce quarrel.
"The police station in the west of the city is vacant, why can't I let my son go? What the hell do you care about your son? ”
"I don't care? Do you care? Day by day, you're either soaking in beauty salons with those women, or flying around abroad to buy a bunch of things that you don't have. Your son has become the waste he is today, all because you, a mother, didn't teach him well! ”
"I'm better than you anyway! I didn't teach well, so what about you, did you teach well? ”
"I'm busy with work, I'm not working, who will support this family?"
"Work? How much money can you get home throughout the year? ”
"Don't argue with me, I don't have the same knowledge as you."
Red Mask had a deep disgust in his eyes and clutched his head over a pillow in irritation.
However, as the argument acquainted, a footstep grew louder and louder, full of malice, and quickly attacked Red Mask from off the screen.
A hand suddenly pulled him up from the bed.
"Get up! Just know how to sleep! Like your mother, you know how to fool around at night! The middle-aged man was wearing a high-end police uniform, and he fanned his head with a red mask.
Then the audience saw that the bandit with cruel methods and fierce heart was beaten to the ground all at once. With the skill of the red mask, it is not a problem to take the life of a middle-aged man in three seconds, but at this time, his body is too frightened, and his body instinctively cuts off all external inductions, stiffens into cement, and bears it with his eyes distracted.
The audience was simply stunned.
"None of the cases can be solved! I can't find a reason to get you promoted! ”
"How many years have you been, and you're still a little police officer?"
"Where do you put my face as the head of the hall?"
"A waste, eat and die, it's not like me at all!"
The derogatory invective was accompanied by beatings, like a gust of wind, slapped on the body and mind of the red mask.
After a while, the middle-aged man straightened his sleeves and left in anger.
After the middle-aged man left, a middle-aged woman dressed in exquisite and fashionable clothes walked in. Sitting next to the red mask in a daze, comforting his son without pain, and cursing a few words of curse for the middle-aged man just now, he sat down and said a few words, the woman looked at her watch and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he stuffed a handful of tens of thousands of pocket money in the hands of the red mask, and let him go out on vacation to take a walk.
The Red Mask was expressionless from beginning to end.
When he was the only one in the whole house, the TV in the living room was broadcasting the news on his own. In the news, the middle-aged man with a hideous face and a violent face just now was dressed on the TV screen at this time, and he spoke awe-inspiring about the many achievements of the police force since its reform.
These words are like blunt knives, and the words cut the heart of the red mask.
In the voice of the TV in the living room, the picture flashed to the various evils that had happened in this home.
A group of middle-aged people came to the house and presented exquisite antiques to the middle-aged people, and the middle-aged people smiled calmly.
Some middle-aged people are in the study, using some cases in their hands as bargaining chips to exchange political interests with other high-ranking officials wearing police uniforms.
There was a child who was naked in winter, his hands were handcuffed, he was beaten by a middle-aged man with a belt, and there were blood marks on his body.
The child's resentful eyes overlapped with the eyes of the red mask.
Can't listen to the ridiculous propaganda report on the TV in the living room, and the hatred in Red Mask's heart needs to be vented.
As soon as the camera turned, he came to the boxing ring of the Force's internal gym, surrounded by colleagues in black short-sleeved Police civilian clothes.
The red mask is in the ring, left and right, and it seems that he is not good at fighting, only to be beaten. The colleague who was his opponent didn't think about mercy at all, and Red Mask was quickly beaten to the point that he had a nosebleed, and the referee shouted to stop. The colleagues around him laughed at him, "I can't beat him, but I always come to be beaten." Red Mask didn't hear it, and when no one was paying attention, he licked the blood from half of his red face, exhaled a long breath, and finally suppressed the tyranny in his eyes.
When Red Mask returned to the police station, he had already changed back into the low-key and ridiculous son of the waste chief.
However, to his surprise, he saw Zhang Jiaju.
After Zhang Jiaju came out of his girlfriend's house, he drank bitterly, drinking more fiercely than before, indicating that the conversation just now actually affected him.
After a few drinks, Duan Xiaofeng appeared out of nowhere, pretended to order a glass of spirits, took a sip, and his expression suddenly crumpled into a piece of paper, he said that he could actually understand Zhang Jiaju. Zhang Jiaju sneered and retorted, you can understand a fart. Duan Xiaofeng said, I have an elder brother, who was a special police officer, who died in the warehouse operation a year ago. Zhang Jiaju's expression froze, his eyes were a little evasive, and he immediately wanted to take a big sip of wine. Duan Xiaofeng held down Zhang Jiaju's wine glass and said, I'm not here to slap you, I'm not here to scold you, I'm here to take revenge, my life and my parents are stuck in a year ago, I feel that I have to catch that bunch of miscellaneous pieces before I and my parents can let go of this matter. Otherwise, there is no difference between being alive and dead.
"If you don't want to live, why don't you die with me on the road to revenge?" Duan Xiaofeng smiled and sent out an invitation.
After saying a word, Zhang Jiaju finally agreed half-guilty and half-impulsively.
Early this morning, I came to the sub-bureau with Duan Xiaofeng to make a record of the brawl with a group of thugs in the early morning.
This precinct happens to be where Red Mask works.
Seeing Zhang Jiaju, the red mask seemed to have seen some unexpected toy.
After making the decision to take revenge, Zhang Jiaju's spirit has changed a little, and the demeanor of the original detective has recovered slightly.
"Interesting." Red Mask chuckled twice and said softly, "Game on." ”
Twenty meters away, as if hearing this sentence from a distance, Duan Xiaofeng suddenly turned his head and stared.
Zhang Jiaju asked him what was wrong. Looking at Duan Xiaofeng's line of sight, it was a corner of the office area, and a young man with a calm temperament and meticulous was working.
"I don't know why." There was no smile on Duan Xiaofeng's solemn face: "I just can't help but want to care about that person." ”
The policeman who was leading the way on the side looked at it and laughed: "Your intuition is quite accurate, that Wu Ze is the son of the director of the hall." ”
Duan Xiaofeng and Zhang Jiaju were startled, some didn't believe that the son of the hall chief could sit here.
As if guessing the suspicions of the two, the policeman looked around and explained in a low voice: "It's just that the director of the hall doesn't like him a little." Afraid of being used as a backlash to slander others, he quickly added: "He is not very gregarious, he has a strange temperament, and he has to get by at work, and he has no motivation." ”
"The temperament is a little different." Zhang Jiaju nodded, not taking it seriously.
Duan Xiaofeng glanced at the red mask a few more times, shook his head, didn't bother anymore, and followed Zhang Jiaju to make a record.
After the transcript is done, the two are about to take revenge. went to the General Bureau, Zhang Jiaju canceled his vacation. The old boss asked him why he didn't continue to take a vacation, and Zhang Jiaju replied that he had rested enough and reflected enough, and he wanted to catch the mask gang. The old boss praised Zhang Jiaju's thoughts, but then said, "Many faces in the group are transferred from other places, so let's run in well" and "You finally came back, adapt first, recover and recover your physical strength", what was revealed inside and outside meant that if Zhang Jiaju wanted to participate in this case again, he could only be added as an ordinary police officer, and he was no longer a commander. Zhang Jiaju has no objection to this.
When he talked back to Duan Xiaofeng, Duan Xiaofeng was very dissatisfied and instigated Zhang Jiaju to investigate the case by himself.
Zhang Jiaju, who has always been very talkative, slammed Duan Xiaofeng's shoulder, stared at the other party fiercely like a knife, and said, "You remember for me, you are not allowed to act without authorization, you must follow the rules and regulations." ”
Duan Xiaofeng was silent for a moment, nodded, and said that he understood.
Zhang Jiaju let go of Duan Xiaofeng and went to the war room.
As soon as the two walked in, everyone's eyes came, and the busy crowd stopped their movements, as if time had stood still for two seconds. By the time everyone had recovered, the noise in the room had dropped significantly. Everyone paid attention to Zhang Jiaju openly and secretly, and through their expressions, it was not difficult to guess that they were all surprised similar to "why did he come" and "how dare he come".
Zhang Jiaju restrained himself from caring about this, he observed the surroundings of the war room, on the whiteboards, pasted with various information about the members of the masked gang and the cases they committed.
Zhang Jiaju stood in front of these materials, greedily absorbing and updating the information.
"What are you doing here?" A middle-aged man about the same age as Zhang Jiaju walked over menacingly.
"Catch the thief." Zhang Jiaju's eyes were a little guilty, but he still insisted on standing here.
"Are you too embarrassed to come back? Do you still have the face to come back? The new captain gritted his teeth and glared at Zhang Jiaju, his forehead almost touching Zhang Jiaju's forehead.
"I know I made mistakes, and I haven't forgotten a moment for more than a year. I also know that I am very cheeky to live, and I wish I was going to die immediately. But let me die now, I'm not reconciled, if I want to die, I have to catch those bastards and die. ”
Zhang Jiaju's eyes were red, and he glared at the new captain without flinching: "I'm here, don't take credit, I just want them to sentence." ”
The new captain looked at Zhang Jiaju for a few seconds, and finally acquiesced to the existence of the other party.
The people around him immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"Any ideas?" Although Zhang Jiaju was demoted and came here, the new captain still recognized Zhang Jiaju's experience in handling cases. He asked, pointing to the standing whiteboards.
Zhang Jiaju quickly entered the state. The one-year blank period didn't seem to dull his brain.
"They are very familiar with the police force and know the execution and process of each operation; They are very sensitive, they should have eyeliner, and they are still the General Directorate; They are trained and familiar with firearms and fighting; They hate the police......" Zhang Jiaju combined this intelligence and concluded: "It is very likely that some of their members are policemen." ”
The new captain nodded in agreement, and this was what they discussed. However, it is one thing to hypothesize and quite another to substantiate. He said that in the past year, he has not been able to catch the tail of the lurker. "We've surveyed all the fighters and shooters in the national police force, and we can rule them all out." "I made up a few false pieces of information before, so that the eyeliner could be passed on to their superiors, so that we could set up an ambush. It turned out to be useless, and that side was not fooled. ”
After listening to this, Zhang Jiaju said: "Fighting and shooting, you must be able to hide and hide, otherwise it will be too conspicuous." As for the spread of those false information, why the other side is not fooled, it is not necessarily that the other party has seen through the trap, but it may also be because ...... The other party is not interested. ”
The new captain asked what it meant.
Zhang Jiaju pulled together the whiteboard of all the crimes committed by the mask gang.
"From the very beginning, their crime level has been gradually escalating, testing the upper limit of their abilities, and also because the threshold of stimulation has increased. The operation ...... a year ago," Zhang Jiaju paused and continued, "The operation a year ago was the biggest one they ever made. There are traps, there are games, there are homemade bombs. ”
The new captain understood. Compared with the warehouse operation with a large number of people, the false information arranged by himself is indeed a small fight.
"The breakthrough point is in this eyeline. If you find him, you can pull out bigger fish along the line. Zhang Jiaju said.
The new captain agrees, but the question is how to catch it, it is impossible to really revive the warehouse operation again and arouse the interest of the mask gang, right?
Zhang Jiaju said that he tried to pull out the eyeliner first, "The pressure of being undercover is not small, and it is also an undercover agent for the mask gang." He asked the new captain: "Can the medical records of the psychological counseling room of each sub-bureau be transferred?" ”
The new captain shook his head: "Half a year ago, the reform made all police officers' information confidential, and the information related to privacy was more strict. ”
"What about health insurance records? If you don't see a psychiatrist, you will quietly take medicine. Zhang Jiaju asked.
"It is estimated that it will be very slow to transfer data across bureaus." Said the new captain.
"Then we can only adjust the monitoring to see who has had psychological counseling before and after the crime." Zhang Jiaju can only choose to use a stupid method.
The new captain said: "This time is estimated to be a long time. ”
"It's really not possible, there's another way. Results are quicker, but you only have one chance. Zhang Jiaju said.
Everyone hurriedly pricked up their ears.
"Use me as bait." Zhang Jiaju stared at the whiteboard of the warehouse operation in a daze, looked at the details, and said, "Half of them came at me when they played so big that time." ”
"The reason why I didn't die in that operation was not because I was powerful, but because they felt that I was a sign of the police force, and they didn't want me to die so easily, and they didn't want me to become a martyr. They felt that I was half-dead, and that I was a living joke that hurt the police force even more. ”
The war room was silent, and everyone just listened in silence.
"So, if they know I'm not down, and declare war on them again, they'll do it." Zhang Jiaju is sure.
"And we're going to fight?" A police officer timidly asked.
Everyone thinks of last year's crazy game, and they can't help but be afraid.
Zhang Jiaju glanced at everyone's expressions and shook his head, "No." He was obviously afraid of repeating the mistakes of the past, and he had learned a bitter lesson that he would not easily put his colleagues at risk.
"As long as we find out the informant, the initiative is ours, and many things will be simple." Zhang Jiaju said.
The people in the war room had already accepted Zhang Jiaju, and one of them raised his hand to ask, more than a year has passed, and the informant has not provided useful information, so can such an informant still catch fish?
Zhang Jiaju nodded: "If [Red Mask] is a policeman, and he is a policeman who is quite capable, then he must also know the [Chronic Stimulation Method]." ”
Duan Xiaofeng quietly asked the police officer on the side: "What does this stimulation method mean?" ”
The other party explained that this is a common trick used by informants, and when they (informants) are pinched and asked for information, they tend to be very cooperative at first, but later, when they find out that even if they provide some useless information, and they are safe, they will gradually feel that the other party is very easy to deceive. They will start to take chances and not give valuable information until the day when the other party loses interest in them.
"That guy wouldn't let that happen." Zhang Jiaju looked at the photo of the red mask pasted on the whiteboard and said: "He is a narcissistic and conceited criminal, pays attention to details, likes to play with people's hearts, such a person will never let the eyeliner get out of control, so the informant's thread must still be in their hands." When an informant gets such a big piece of information, he will definitely contact them as soon as possible. ”
The new captain secretly clenched his fists. The other members of the task force were also excited by Zhang Jiaju's proposal, and felt that the case finally had a direction.
The audience sitting in the theater finally felt that the story was starting to look good.
Before, the police were pressed and beaten by bandits, and their strength was unbalanced. Now that Zhang Jiaju has recovered, he has finally begun to counteract the bandits.
The rest is simple.
In the tense background music, the task force's demining plan began. Zhang Jiaju first made a high-profile return, and conducted an internal review and speech at the General Bureau, saying that there had been a major breakthrough in the case. Then one night, the task force suddenly organized a large group of policemen to set off from the General Bureau to carry out their tasks, and the police cars drove out one after another.
In fact, the operation was fake, and before getting into the car, they deliberately spread the location of this mission. The car that drove out was just wandering around the General Bureau.
Zhang Jiaju and the others made arrangements, used communication equipment to monitor, and prepared to see which text messages were sent from near the General Bureau in the ten minutes after the mission site was dispersed.
In ten minutes, thousands were intercepted.
Caught three eyeliner.
After the police took down the eyeliner, they controlled them, took over the mobile phone, and continued to send text messages to drag Shang's home, and then the network technology team tracked the number and located it.
In an anxious wait.
"Biting!" A police officer from the technical section shouted.
The people in the task force were so excited that they almost didn't shout.
Contact the eyeliner person, in a hotel in the capital.
This is the first time in a year that they have caught the tail of the masked gang.
Early the next morning, the action began.
……
"Butterfly, what did the boss say?"
"He already knows that Zhang Jiaju has returned to the police force."
A young woman, codenamed Butterfly, sits on the edge of a floor-to-ceiling window, flipping through a medical journal and eating breakfast.
The decoration of the hotel where she stays does not match her appearance. But a few hand-drawn maps scattered on the ground and the buildings next to each other outside the window reveal why she chose to live here.
"Zhang Jiaju is also very powerful, and he hasn't collapsed yet." The person who talked to Butterfly was a young man surrounded by three computers, whether he was talking or eating breakfast, his eyes were fixed on the screen, and he was like a computer man. "My informant said that Zhang Jiaju took over our case again, and a few days ago he made a speech saying that he would declare war on us, but last night he went to raid the casino of Lao Tang in the east of the city, hahaha, he deserves to be a fool who watched the excitement."
"A false shot. Zhang Jiaju is not a person with such a character. Butterfly frowned slightly, always feeling that something was wrong, "Forget it, wait until the boss comes, ask him." ”
She stretched and continued to read medical magazines.
"You just have to wait to ask the boss." Said the computer man.
"I'd love to." Butterfly was ashamed to accept the ridicule of her companion, but even more ashamed, she still left it to her favorite boss, "Oops, we can't meet until he gets off work, time flies so slowly." She looked at her watch and wailed.
"If you're bored, you can play games first." The computer man suggested in confusion.
Butterfly ignored him.
"What day of the week is today? There are so few people. The butterfly looked at the scorching sun, applying sunscreen while casually looking out the window.
"Saturday?" The computer man looked at his phone, "Saturday." ”
Butterfly saw that several children originally wanted to walk to the road downstairs of the hotel, but when they reached the intersection, they were stopped by a big sister wearing a peaked cap, and raised the camera in her hand, as if to say that there was a set behind the shooting.
The butterfly looked at it for a few seconds, then suddenly took a few steps back away from the window and said to the computer man, "Clean up." ”
"What's wrong?" Although the computer man was confused, he still moved quickly to pack up the equipment.
"It doesn't feel right." Butterfly picked up the pistol from under the pillow, pulled out the magazine from her bag and put it in her pocket. Then he put some obvious personal items into his bag and planned to leave.
Open the door and not rush out. She used the camera function of her mobile phone to observe the situation in the hallway.
As a result, several well-trained, fully armed SWAT officers were photographed, silently touching the stairs.
Butterfly closed the door unhurriedly and said to the computer man, "We're blocked." ”
"What to do, what to do!" The computer man was so panicked that he said, "The boss hasn't gotten off work yet, and everyone else is still on the way!" ”
Butterfly told the computer man not to panic, and while she sent a code message to several companions representing danger, she walked to the window of the room and pulled out the high-altitude escape equipment from her bag.
"Let's go out the window." Butterfly greets computer man.
The hotel they stayed in was not high, only on the ninth floor.
The two of them tied the knot and slid down from the window.
However, there are also police officers outside the building to guard at the intersection.
Butterflies were spotted when they descended to the fourth floor.
……
Red Mask was on patrol when he received a text message that his companions were in danger, and he had his own precinct and could not leave at will. So Red Mask said that he was not feeling well and asked for leave.
After getting out of the car, he called a car to go to the scene.
At the intersection, which is far away from the hotel, the barrier blocks a bunch of passers-by.
"What's going on over there?" Red Mask got out of the car and walked over and asked the police guarding the intersection.
"Go back, don't join in the fun." The police evicted passers-by, worried that these citizens would be accidentally hit by stray bullets.
Red Mask listened to the distant gunshots, nodded apprehensively, and buried his head away. However, he turned a few corners, came to an alley, and climbed down the water pipe with his shoelaces to the second floor. Then in the corridor, he changed into a dark SWAT uniform prepared in advance, put on a hat, and then came to the roof of the building from the residential building on the side, and then looked at the roofs of other buildings in front of him, he sprinted, leaped, took off, rolled and unloaded, and a series of actions, climbed over one roof after another, and gradually approached the hotel where the crime occurred.
Standing on the edge of the last rooftop, he looked at the shadowy policemen below, and a look of hesitation appeared on his face. It seems that he is thinking about whether to risk saving his companions at this time.
……
The fourth floor of the hotel.
Butterflies and the computer man dodge bullets and hide in the cleaning vault on this level. Looking at the cleaning cart beside her, Butterfly quickly picked up the detergents one by one, identified their ingredients, and mixed some of them together. Finally, I didn't know what to do, so I tied them together with duct tape and reached for the corner of the hallway.
The SWAT officers couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when they saw the detergent rolling down in front of them.
Butterfly reached out, took aim, and shot the cleaning mixture she had thrown out.
"Boom-"
There was a violent explosion around the corner, and after the explosion, it was white.
The butterfly retreated into the house and felt the vibration of her phone. She took out her phone and looked at it, and found that it was the boss who replied with a secret message, telling her to hold on, and he had already arrived.
The butterfly smiled, and there was no more urgency on her face.
"The Boss is here." She said.
The computer man didn't scream at once.
Even if the boss hasn't arrived yet, these two words are enough to make them feel at ease.
Butterfly beckons the computer guy to work with her to make a makeshift gas mask, and then she can get some chemical weapons until the boss comes to save them.
……
The seventh floor of the hotel.
Duan Xiaofeng was whistling around the room where Butterfly had just stayed, and when he saw a bottle of sunscreen on the small table in the floor-to-ceiling window, he planned to wipe himself a little. There is no urgency to suppress bandits.
"What are you doing!" Zhang Jiaju slapped Duan Xiaofeng's hand away.
Duan Xiaofeng said curtly that the purple mask is good at chemistry, and maybe the sunscreen he prepared will have a better effect than the one on the market.
Zhang Jiaju had a dark face and grabbed Duan Xiaofeng by the collar and took him out of the room.
"Seriously." Zhang Jiaju patted Duan Xiaofeng's shoulder, "I don't want to see anyone die because of negligence." ”
Duan Xiaofeng restrained his mischievous expression and nodded.
……
Outside the guesthouse, in the alley.
Red Mask came to the back door of the hotel.
In front of me were a few squatting policemen.
Seeing the appearance of the red mask, everyone was startled at first, until the red mask raised his hands and handed over the documents, and the police checked it, and then let down their guard.
Red Mask said: "I was on vacation around and suddenly I heard that there was a case here, so I came over to take a look. My dad is the head of the department, and I don't know if you have enough people here, and if there is anything I can do to help. ”
After listening to the first half of the sentence, the police originally wanted Red Mask to leave quickly, but as soon as the second half of the sentence said that his father was the director of the hall, several policemen immediately changed their words, and politely said that the manpower is actually very sufficient, there is danger here, maybe there will be a shootout here later. "Wu Gongzi, you have to be careful......"
The policeman couldn't go on. Because his neck was stabbed hard by a knife, and he slashed down hard.
The police subconsciously used their hands to plug the blood flowing from their necks.
Red Mask took over the policeman's gun, and with a few "bangs" and "bangs", the other policemen slowly fell to the ground with a look of disbelief.
Red Mask exhaled, withdrew the butterfly knife, pulled the memory card out of the police camera, and walked in through the back door with a gun in hand.
The camera did not leave the alley. It seemed like a few seconds, it seemed like a few minutes, a few shots later. Red Mask, Butterfly, and Computer Man came out the back door one after another.
This means that Red Mask uses a gun to kill his companions in a way to survive.
The face of the red mask and the black police uniform were clean.
Although the butterfly and the computer man were a little embarrassed, their expressions were joyful. One is because of the aftermath of the catastrophe, and the other is because of the rescue of the lover.
Red Mask motioned to the two companions to go.
The butterfly hugged her lover nostalgically, and then left the alley with the computer man.
After the companion left, just as Red Mask was about to leave, Duan Xiaofeng appeared from another intersection in the alley.
Today, the sun is fierce, and there is a clear dividing line between the alley and the road, which separates the two people far away.
Duan Xiaofeng looked at the face of the red mask and recognized him. But Duan Xiaofeng remained vigilant and asked:
"Why are you here?"
"I heard the call for help, so I rushed here." Red Mask said.
"I don't remember you being so motivated."
"It's just work."
Duan Xiaofeng didn't ask any more questions and walked into the alley.
As he passed the Red Mask, his nose twitched, as if he suddenly smelled something familiar.
What is it? Duan Xiaofeng frowned and thought about it.
The camera flashed to the bedroom where the seventh-floor bandit he had stayed not long ago lived.
"Don't move!" Duan Xiaofeng suddenly turned around, pointed a gun at the red mask, and forced the latter to be handcuffed.
Although Red Mask didn't know where he had revealed his flaws, he didn't resist, but he didn't panic either, and let himself be handcuffed.
"Is there a mistake?" Red Mask asked softly, as if he was really wronged.
"Whether you're wrong or not, you come with me first." Duan Xiaofeng said.
"Handcuffing a colleague for no reason, and finding it clear afterwards, you will be punished, and in serious cases, you will be suspended."
Duan Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, as if it was the first time he had heard such a thing.
Taking advantage of this moment, Red Mask took the opportunity of the fall and quickly squatted down, wrapping his handcuffed hands from the bottom to the front of him. Then he quickly countered and fought against Duan Xiaofeng, who came back to his senses.
Spectators were surprised to discover that despite the fact that Red Mask had not played in the previous warehouse, the fighting game had not been played; He was beaten in the ring by his colleagues, but he was able to fight, and he was very good.
Even if his hands are handcuffed, he can still gain the upper hand in the fight with Duan Xiaofeng.
Duan Xiaofeng's proud grappling technique suddenly turned off after encountering the red mask. It's like taking a master class, no matter how he plays, the Red Mask can crack and create more trouble for him.
Even if it's a fist and kick competition, Red Mask's skills are above him.
Duan Xiaofeng fell and stumbled, and soon became embarrassed. He pulled away from him, panting to Red Mask and said, "You're not a cop. ”
Red Mask calmly held his handcuffed hands in a restrained position, and he smiled and said, "Neither are you." ”
