This is a small county town in Gansu.

This year is also my third year here, and to be honest, before I graduated, like many college students, I had a particularly beautiful vision of where I would work in the future, such as wanting to stay in places like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, use my natural ability to change the world here, and let my mother brag in front of my relatives every day.

But! The fact is that after graduation, I honestly returned to my hometown to live a retirement life here in advance, how to say, this kind of life and my imaginary life before graduation can not be said to be the same, can only be said to be irrelevant, when I first came back, I was 11,000 unwilling, but after a few years of staying, I found that my current life is not bad except for the low salary, and I can often stay with my parents (here I want to interject a sentence, although they do look at me every dayI want to start a family as soon as possible, and don't bother them, but as long as I don't go home for dinner and go out for a drink with my fox friends in my hometown, they will definitely call me before twelve o'clock in the morning and tell me to go back in five minutes. And the price is not too high, two dollars can take a taxi from the head of the city to the end of the city, so now I really love it here!

First year of work. I have never handled a big case in my hands, because most of the things handled by the police in a small county town are trivial matters, and even bigger ones are cases of young people fighting.

To be honest, I was also quite confused that year, you think about how I graduated from a prestigious school, and my college classmates are basically doing other things in police stations or some larger company, and as soon as I graduate, I went home, and I was unemployed for almost half a year after I graduated, and I was almost beaten to death by the old couple after staying at home for half a year, and I didn't have any income and didn't go to socialize.

At first, I still felt that the current job made me very faceless, so I tried to avoid talking about work when chatting with them, as long as they mentioned work or something, I immediately diverted the topic, began to talk about some of the no, and hung up the phone under the pretext of something, but then I reconciled with myself, and told myself: "What's the matter, I'm back to build my hometown, better than any of them." ”

However, although there is no big pressure to work in my hometown, but think about it carefully, I am a young man, I haven't started to struggle, after all, I still don't want to live a too peaceful life like now, I want my daughter-in-law to live a good life in the future, how can I live a good life like this, I can't rely on dealing with these trivial things until I retire in the second half of my life, at least I have to change to the police station in the county, not the district police station.

After graduating, I suddenly found that the major I studied in college did not seem to play a role in the period after I graduated and worked, and some things often need practice to know how to deal with them, after all, practice is the only criterion for testing the truth.

Here I have to mention again that I took the public examination, in fact, I want to take the exam to a better workplace, but I have not studied well since I was a child, and the university I was admitted to at that time was a waste of all the knowledge cells in my brain, and I was lucky for more than ten years before, even with the answer, when the college entrance examination results came out, my parents didn't believe it at all, because they knew me too well, and in their eyes, I couldn't get the results at that time, and they even asked me to be honest, At this time, I believe that the college entrance examination is the good luck that I spent my life, so it may not be that the major I studied in college is useless in my work, but that it is useless in my current work environment.

That's it, I have been here for more than a year with nothing to do, the monthly salary is not much, except for the monthly living expenses to the old couple and the money I went out to eat and drink with friends in my hometown, I didn't save a penny in my hand in the end, the only huge amount of money is the thousand yuan I put in the passbook when I was in college, well, I admit, this thousand dollars doesn't seem to be worth showing off here, but think about it, if I get married in the future, I hand over my salary, Isn't this 1,000 yuan a little nourishing for my poor life, so I told myself clearly in my heart that this money can't be touched at any time, and now I think about it at that time, I was really pitiful, other people's deposits start with 10,000 characters, and it is better to start with 1,000 to me, or the kind without change.

But then again, although I was dealing with some inconsequential things for a long time that year, because of this, I was familiar with everyone in the area where I worked, and I probably knew more people during that time than my mother had known in half her life, and I could say hello when I met on the road, and there would be free food when I went grocery shopping, and they would affectionately call me Xiao Han.

At the end of that year, I followed my master to deal with one of the biggest things I had encountered in that year.

Before I start talking about that, I think it's important for me to talk about my master, the old man surnamed Liu, who has been here for almost ten years, and when I first came here, he said to me, he said, don't look at our place as a small place, but I can assure you that one day you will find that there are many small places. Speaking of which, I have to complain again, I! Han Dingyu! Graduated from a major university! Outstanding youth! I'm going to do big things! But I still choose to believe what the old man said, after all, he is older than my mother, so I can trust him for the time being, after all, what the old saying goes, right! He's walked more roads than I've ever eaten salt.

And he can use his three-inch incorruptible tongue to persuade me to stay every time I don't want to go home and gnaw at the old age, and the main "means" for me to stay is to start telling me about what happened to him in the past few years, the cases he has handled, and the strange criminals he has encountered, the first time I heard him say this, I was convinced, thinking that I should stay, after all, this is my first year here. It was with great difficulty that I was admitted to this system, and when he told me these things, as soon as he opened his mouth, I immediately told him that I had decided that I would stay, after all, I would break down one day if I listened to him talk about these things.

As for the true face of this person, I will elaborate on it later.

There's another person I've known the most since I came to the city, apart from my teammates.

I buy steamed buns in a steamed bun shop every morning, and I don't know why I don't feel tired of eating a bun in a shop for three years, but one day I don't eat it will feel like I miss it, I may be a strange character, my mother is scolding me for getting up early to make me breakfast, I haven't eaten a bite, I also told my mother to ask him not to get up so early to make breakfast, but this woman will scold me, you don't eat and your father, you can go wherever you like to eat.

The owner of the bun shop is surnamed Jiang, I heard that he is an old policeman, after dealing with an extremely bad case, he decided to no longer engage in this industry, and his age is almost to retire, so he applied for early retirement, and then suddenly changed careers and opened a bun shop near the police station, the people who come to him to eat buns are basically people from our police station, so you go in early in the morning and see that the people sitting inside are all people in police uniforms, it is conceivable that this bun shop is not afraid to come to anyone who has done something bad, Lao Jiang can use his amazing memory to remember everyone's tastes and the approximate time of coming to the steamed bun shop, which I admire.

"Boss, let's have a cage of mushroom stuffed meat buns."

"I have prepared it for you a long time ago, and you didn't eat your mother's cooking today, and you came to me again, and let your mother know that I have to suffer her eyes again." Because my mother would pass by Lao Jiang's steamed bun shop at work, Lao Jiang would complain every day that my mother would stare at him when she passed by.

"Don't worry, according to your age, my mother will still call you big brother, you are still afraid that she will stare at you, you really can't stare back next time"

"Don't make trouble, stare at your mother, you don't know what kind of person your mother is, if I dare to stare at her, she won't pick out my eyeballs one day, and what if I'm her big brother, do you have the words respect for the old and love the young in your mother, no, okay, you don't want to horn again, look at the watch, you don't leave, I'm afraid that Liu Daoyan's dog thing will find me again, saying that it is late and the buns are steaming slowly."

"Lao Jiang, you wait for me, when I have money, I will resign, just open a branch next to your bun shop, let my master's old man come to me every day, and then drag him and make him late!"

"Yo, are you still talking here?"

While I was still immersed in fantasies about the future, someone slapped me.

"Master" standing behind me is my master Lao Liu Tou, in fact, I don't want to call him master all the time, because I always feel that the word master makes my relationship with him sound a little distant, but as long as this old man can't hear me call him master, he will be uncomfortable, and he can nag in my ear all day because of this. So later, I was annoyed, and the title of master became more and more pleasant.

"I'm very thoughtful for your master, just you, who will open a bun shop, one day you know that you dream of making a fortune, and you want to make yourself rich, then do you want to quit your job, buy a lottery ticket, see when you win a jackpot, and then think about opening a bun shop."

"And Lao Jiang, isn't my bun okay yet? I went to the police station and came back after a walk. ”

"Come on, come on, who told you to go to the police station so early every day, you can get up when you're young, I'm different, I'm old."

My master and Lao Jiang have also been friends for many years, and the case that made Lao Jiang quit his police job was handled with my master, you may ask why Lao Jiang resigned because of too much pressure after handling the case, but my master did not.

To be honest, my master's psychological tolerance is very strong, and no matter what kind of crime scene he sees, he can be the same as no one (this is what Lao Jiang told me, after all, I have basically not encountered too many major cases in the three years I have been here). So this may be enough to explain why my master has been able to do it until now, on the one hand, because he really has this ability, and on the other hand, he is a heartless person. Thinking of this, I silently glanced at my master.

"Look at it, look at what, what is there to look at this old man in the morning" This old man has to look around when he buys a bun, and it just so happens that I have eye contact with him.

"Is it possible, because I haven't seen you all night and miss you old." I'm a master at slapping sycophants.

While joking and chatting with the master, I noticed a couple of men and women sitting on a table in the far corner of the store, the reason why I noticed them was because most of the people from our police station were eating breakfast here, so they basically knew each other, and they were all wearing police uniforms, and the two of them were particularly conspicuous here, and when I looked at my master just now, I inadvertently met the woman, and I could see that her eyes were full of fear, but I didn't care, after all, the couple quarreled, It's a normal thing, just like my parents, a loving husband and wife, who quarrel endlessly every day.

It's the end of the year in a blink of an eye

In a sense, the Spring Festival is the most important thing for everyone who leaves home, and it is the same for me, but I believe you all know that for the people in our position, it is unlikely that there will be any holidays, the police station is our home, and the few days close to the Spring Festival are the most contradictions between families and neighbors.

I remember when I was in the office and suddenly received a phone call, (every time I heard the phone ring, my first reaction was: which family is there another conflict.) Maybe this has already created a reflex for me) I picked up the phone without hurrying, and a woman's voice came from the other end of the phone, "Help me, someone is going to kill me, help me!" After saying these words, there was a cacophony of voices, "Who told you to take my phone。。。。。 ”

To be honest, I still remember the feeling I felt when I picked up the phone and heard the voice on the other side, it was an indescribable fear, and my hands were still shaking when the call was hung up.

I know this may not be the first reaction that a police officer should have.

After hanging up, I immediately rushed out to find the master who was still outside the office enjoying the fireworks

"Master, I just got a call...

"When you get a call, you get a call, why are you so panicked, which thing was taken away, just solve it according to the procedure. Really, I told you a few times to make you steady and steady. ”

"No, master, I just received a phone call, and there was a woman on the other end of the phone who said to help her, someone was going to kill her."

After hearing my words, the master immediately became energetic and informed everyone that we should leave quickly. ”

"Master, it shouldn't be so serious, will it be just simple domestic violence?"

"Shut up, don't make judgments before you get to the scene."

I followed the old man into the police car, and the people who went to the scene were not only me, the master, but also the rest of the team, after all, this kind of thing only depends on me, a person who has just graduated and has no experience, it is unreasonable.
