Chapter 2: Death Command

"Back to the criminal police team? No, I don't go back, my life in the security department is quite good, I eat well, sleep well, I don't have to work overtime day and night, I have work and rest, this kind of life is more regular. ”

I'm sitting in the deputy director's office now, opposite my master Shen Ruoshan, after the incident three years ago, I always feel a little uncomfortable when I see him now. Fortunately, he was still the same as he had always been to me, just like a father would do to his children, listening to my yin and yang whining.

After listening to me, he silently opened a file folder, pulled out a photo from the middle and handed it to me. Above is the strange pattern on the surface of the crime site.

I took the photo, and as soon as I looked at the pattern, my brain suddenly went blank as if it had been struck by lightning.

I've seen this pattern, not only I've seen it, I don't know how many times I've seen it in my dreams in the past three years!

The last place where Ye Yun appeared before he disappeared three years ago had this pattern!

The reappearance of this pattern has caused ripples in my life like a pool of stagnant water. At this moment, I felt that I was still alive.

"In the June 25 cross-border smuggling case three years ago, although we caught the leader of the group and destroyed the smuggling den, there are still people at large. It is no coincidence that this pattern has reappeared at the scene of the murder this time, and the Public Security Department has decided to investigate the 28 August homicide case and the 25 June cross-border smuggling case together, and set up a special case team, with me as the leader. ”

After Shen Ruoshan finished speaking, he pushed the file forward, his expression was still indifferent, his eyes narrowed and narrow, as if he was waiting for my final decision.

"When do I leave and where do I report?"

"Now, the criminal investigation detachment task force."

……

In this way, as if in a dream, I returned to the criminal police team, to the place where my police career began.

The familiar office building, the familiar criminal police team, just three years, everything has been different.

Fortunately, the first face I saw when I walked into the criminal police team was an acquaintance, Lin Zifan, the current captain of the criminal police team.

"Team Qin, welcome home." He smiled and held out his hand to me.

"Team Lin." I smiled and squeezed his hand tightly.

"Team Qin, don't make trouble, you still call me Zifan like you did back then. From the moment I joined the criminal police team, you have been the captain, the captain of my life, and my eternal role model. ”

We looked at each other and smiled, hugged each other hard, and before we knew it, our eyes were a little moist.

"Team Qin, this time a task force has been set up, it's great that you can come back, we can fight side by side again!"

He wiped his tears and led me to an adjoining room. This was originally an archive room, because the task force was not enough to vacate the room.

Walking into the house, the inside is not as shabby as expected, the place is quite large, and there is plenty of light. Several large filing cabinets were neatly arranged on both sides, replaced by five sets of brand new office chairs and supporting computer equipment, and the rest of the things commonly used in handling cases are also readily available, and there is a small room in the innermost part, which is temporarily used as the team leader's office.

There were two men sitting in the room, chatting, one was wearing sportswear, his figure was a little fat, and a baby's fat face was always a little obscene when he smiled. The other person looked a little cold, with angular facial features, fair skin, and a slightly loose windbreaker that couldn't hide his slightly burly figure at all.

"Team Qin, this fat man is your old acquaintance." Lin Zifan introduced me with a smile.

"Old Qin!" The lewd fat man stood up and yelled at me.

"Old dog!"

This obscene fat man is named Jiang Tingbai, although he is not very old, he has become a well-known trace expert in the police force, with eagle-like vision and a dog-like sense of smell. He was an old partner when I was in the criminal police team, and he made us call him "Hawkeye", but we all called him an old dog behind our backs.

"This is Xue ......" Lin Zifan was about to introduce me, but the man stood up and walked straight towards me, stretching out his hand very elegantly.

"My name is Xue Hang, and I'm transferred from the firearms identification team."

"It is said that the gun is fast seven steps away, and the punch is fast within seven steps, Xue Hang is all-round, the new Sanda and shooting double champion of the police force." Lin Zifan added.

"Fortunately." We shook hands and nodded.

Hearing this, Jiang Tingbai immediately stood up and whispered to us: "Men can't say that they are fast. ”

"Go, go, it's not in shape." I frowned, my face full of disgust.

Then, we all laughed, Xue Hang smiled very heartily, it seems that he is not as cold as he looks.

After a few conversations, I realized that there were only four people in the room, but there were five desks, and apparently one person did not come.

"Who else is it?" I asked.

The three of them looked at each other, and none of them answered my question, but they looked at their slightly meaningful expressions, but they seemed to be answering me.

"Old Qin, you really don't know?" Jiang Tingbai was a little surprised.

I haven't seen it for three years, how can these people learn to play dumb riddles, and I was even more confused when I listened: "I...... I don't know. ”

Jiang Tingbai laughed with a little disgust, leaned back on the back of the chair with his whole body, and leaned back directly in a tactical way.

Now I'm even more confused, it seems that in the college dormitory, roommates are talking about a very popular meme, but you don't know it.

"Ahem, this is a big man, I heard that he is still a big beauty!" Jiang Tingbai sat down on the chair with his feet on the table, and put himself in a very comfortable position.

What big guys, big beauties? The more I listened, the more confused I became.

It's not that there are no women in the police department, it's just that because gender will make women have a natural disadvantage in this profession, so the women in the police force are basically doing internal work. A place like the criminal police team that goes out to the scene every day to deal with the murderer is a group of big men, not to mention the task force.

But then again, at the moment, the four of us are all people who have a skill or have been involved in this case. So the woman who can enter the task force is definitely not a vase, thinking of this, I am really a little curious about this big man and big beauty.

"This man is not simple, U

ATI's returnee high-achieving student, a master of criminal psychology, especially good at crime testing and writing, set up a task force this time, and the boss specially seconded her from the provincial bureau. Jiang Tingbai nodded as he spoke, looking like he was very familiar with her.

"What? What university? ”

"University of Cincinnati." Xue Hang explained with a smile.

"Whew, Cincinnati, Cincinnati." I was a little embarrassed, and then laughed a few times.

"Is this a task force?"

A girl walks into the house with a shoulder bag.

Why does this man look familiar?

It's her?!

The girl who recorded my video at the corner of the alley?

She is a returnee from Xinxin's university? I can't see it.

"Yes, please come in." Seeing that I didn't speak, Lin Zifan hurriedly answered.

The task force was all assembled, and we each introduced ourselves again.

"My name is Li Meng, graduated from the University of Cincinnati, majoring in criminal psychology, after joining the criminal police team, I worked as a criminal profiler, and I have just been transferred from the provincial team......" She always glanced at me intentionally or unintentionally when she introduced herself, and probably recognized me as the "beating" policeman.

To be honest, I don't think criminal psychology is very high, and I have been a criminal police officer for seven years, of course, three of them in the law and order department. Just said that in the years when I was a criminal policeman, I didn't know how many cases I solved with my master, and I didn't use any psychology, and traditional criminal investigation has been passed down for many generations, which have all been tested in actual combat. And that Xin Xin is a university, I haven't heard of it at all, and I guess I don't have much ability.

My evaluation of Li Meng is somewhat subjective, who asked her to call me uncle, but I really don't think that criminal psychology is so high, and then look at Jiang Tingbai's licking dog-like appearance, and talk to people about what university and what foreign life is Xinxin, and a person who has never been abroad is not afraid of showing timidity.

We were chatting when someone pushed the door in, and the person who came was a middle-aged man in his fifties, holding a thick folder in his hand and walking towards us: "Everyone is here, my name is Shen Ruoshan, from now on, I am the leader of the task force." ”

He still looks like that, and he still speaks in the same tone, which he has been like since I first joined the criminal police team.

Now we were standing in the same room again, and for a moment I was in a trance.

"The establishment of the task force is the decision of the Provincial Public Security Department, and the members of the task force are carefully selected by me from the elite police officers in the province.

Shen Ruoshan distributed the file folder to everyone, and said: "This is the file of the cross-border smuggling case on June 25 three years ago, as well as all the information about the August 28 homicide case so far. From now on, if you have any difficulties, you can talk to me! If you have any needs, you can mention them to me! As long as it is to solve the case, all resources can be called! Now your mission is to solve the case within a week! ”

"Yes!"

After Shen Ruoshan finished speaking, he walked into his office.

Obviously, he received a death mission this time, and solved the case in a week. But he is obviously a hands-off shopkeeper now, just to provide us with some help at the right time, and we have to do every step of the way.

As a first-hand witness of the June 25 case, I became the deputy leader of the task force by default. We each looked at the file in our hands, and after a while, everyone raised their heads and looked at me.

I took a deep breath.

"Let's go, let's go to the scene of the crime."
