Hu Pingtao smiled and said: "You are overthinking. There is really nothing between Xie Anguo and I. I just feel that he has been treated unfairly and I want to help him."

Gu Dewei was a little curious: "It's been decades, boss. Are you so sure that you think Xie Anguo is right?"

"What can he do wrong?" Hu Pingtao asked back: "A good officer is already a deputy company when he is less than twenty-five years old. Xie An's family is ordinary and he has no background. Although his grandfather is a veteran, in his early years

He retired from the army and went to work in the local area without any influence in the army. Even if he has a few old comrades, the relationship is limited to the level of "do me a favor and take care of my grandson."

"I am from a military compound and am very familiar with these things. Help and care in the army also depend on the person. As the saying goes: you have to be strong to make iron. If Xie Anguo does not have a high school degree, he will not perform well.

, let alone promotion, I’m afraid I’ll get out after serving the army for a full period of time.”

"Judging from this point alone, Xie Anguo has nothing to say in terms of ideology, politics, behavior, etc."

"I have never met Wang Qiong, and I don't believe anything. Whether Xie Anguo said that he and Wang Qiong had sex on the first date, or that Wang Qiong had an affair with other men, let's put it aside for now. Let's just say it.

Regarding Wang Qiong’s disappearance, since it was an interview between two families, why did she run away midway?”

"Wang Qiong just doesn't want to think about what kind of trouble she will bring to the two families if she runs away like this?"

"Even if these troubles can be solved, does she still need her personal reputation?"

Gu Dewei nodded slowly. The reasons given by Hu Pingtao were very sufficient.

"Then what should we do now?" Gu Dewei asked: "Focus on searching for Wang Qiong and keep an eye on her family members?"

Hu Pingtao shook his head: "We don't have that much time. Besides, this is an old case that has been going on for decades. We don't have enough manpower and don't have that much energy, so I left Xie Anguo with him when I left just now.

It’s a suspense.”

Gu Dewei reacted quickly: "Boss, what do you mean... let Xie Anguo find evidence by himself?"

Hu Pingtao said "Yeah": "Actually, he is more eager to solve the case than anyone else. Alas, this man's best time has been wasted. If it hadn't been for Wang Qiong, Xie Anguo would have been in the army

He can definitely go higher. I have read the information and found that he participated in flood fighting and rescue operations and achieved second-class personal merit. His originally beautiful and brilliant life suddenly became extremely gloomy, and no one would want to change it!"

"But fortunately, Xie Anguo caught up with the good opportunity of reform and opening up and made a lot of money, so he has the confidence to do things."

"Since he is willing to pay people to keep an eye on the Wang family, let him continue! The law allows you to provide evidence on your own, which also reduces the intensity of our work."

Gu Dewei nodded with some aftertaste: "No wonder you said those words to Xie Anguo, boss. It turns out that it's all here!"

Hu Pingtao explained: "After all, he is not a policeman, and he has mistaken the target of the investigation. I will give him a warning, turn around in time, and focus on Wang Qiang. This will be good for all of us, as long as Xie Anguo is there

Once we have the information, it will be much easier for us. If we can successfully resolve or solve the case, it will be a good thing."

Gu Dewei looked at him deeply and said with a smile: "Boss, you are taking a long-term approach to catch the big fish!"

Hu Pingtao corrected: "I am sowing the seeds, watering them some more, and waiting for them to bloom and bear fruit."

…

It must be admitted that Hu Pingtao caught up with a good time.

The criminal investigation team has been very idle during this period, and there have been no cases that need to be solved urgently.

Ding Jian usually likes to talk casually, and even he said: Ever since Hu Pingtao came to the Criminal Investigation Team, the world seems to be at peace, with no police situation, no pressure and urging from above.

Zhang Yixuan: "This period is more comfortable than the Chinese New Year. It would be great if it could always be like this."

Xing Le: "I finally have time to fall in love. I want to find a top quality man to blind your titanium dog eyes."

Tang Yuan: "If I continue to be so leisurely, I will consider having a second child with my wife."

Ding Jian: "It's really boring to be idle. I have gained several pounds by sitting still all day."

Joking is just joking, the work that needs to be done must be done.

Hu Pingtao is the captain and must be on duty.

The criminal investigation team is on duty and positioned 24 hours a day. This is to deal with emergencies and ensure that investigations can be carried out as soon as possible. After all, cases that can be reported to the criminal investigation team are different from civil disputes. After receiving the police, you must rush to the scene of the crime as soon as possible.

, collect evidence.

On Thursday, it was Hu Pingtao's turn to be on duty.

The duty schedule was arranged by Zhang Yixuan, which was a special treatment for Hu Pingtao. After all, he has a pair of children. He is on duty on Thursdays and works on Fridays. He can rest on the weekends and spend time with his family and children.

Everyone likes to relax, and Hu Pingtao is no exception. Being on duty in the bureau is much more comfortable than working at the police station. Especially when there are no cases on hand, you can often sleep until dawn in the dormitory on duty.

Maybe his good luck had run out, or maybe God was deliberately arranging something for Hu Pingtao to do. In short, he was woken up by someone when he was sleeping well.

When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was the auxiliary police officer in the duty room outside.

"Captain Tiger, someone reported the crime."

No matter who is woken up from sleep, he will feel unhappy in his heart. Hu Pingtao scratched his head, yawned, frowned, and asked sleepily: "Report a crime? What crime to report?"

At this time, he suddenly came to his senses, subconsciously picked up the mobile phone placed by the bedside, and checked the time.

Four twenty-six in the morning.

This is not the right time!

Also, the cases received by the criminal investigation team are all through channels such as the police station. I have never heard of cases being reported directly.

Hu Pingtao asked in confusion: "Which police station reported the case?"

The auxiliary police officer in the duty room replied: "It's two men, both driving cars, and one of them is a taxi. I told them that this is the public security bureau, not the police station. If you want to report a crime, it's best to call 110."

But they didn’t listen and said that if the police were specifically responsible for this, since they were already here, there was no need to go to the police station or call 110.”

Hu Pingtao frowned.

What kind of logic is this?

But when I think about it carefully, it seems that I am right.

The people at the police station are policemen, and the policemen at the Public Security Bureau are also policemen. Anyway, they are reporting crimes, and the policemen are the same wherever they go.

The duty dormitory was divided into two rooms, inside and outside. Hu Pingtao was thinking about it when Tang Yuan, who was sleeping inside, also woke up and walked out with his clothes on and asked: "What happened?"

Hu Pingtao waved his hand at him: "Go back to sleep! I'll go out and take a look. I'll call you if I need anything."

With that said, he stood up and followed the auxiliary police officer out the door.

…

In the middle of the night, the door of the Public Security Bureau was closed, and only the small door of the duty room next to it was open. Hu Pingtao came outside and saw two cars parked on the roadside. One was Xiaopeng New Energy and the other was mint green.

Painted taxi.

Standing in front of the Xiaopeng car was a middle-aged man, who looked to be in his thirties. He was wearing a light yellow pullover housecoat, a pair of casual pants, and glasses, which looked quite elegant.

The taxi driver was about the same age as him and was wearing a peaked cap. Hu Pingtao paid attention to the hairline under the brim of the hat and estimated that this guy didn't have a few hairs left, so he had to keep a hat at night.

He took two steps forward and asked, "Do you want to report a crime?"

The middle-aged man looked a little hesitant. The taxi driver standing in the back quickly stepped forward and nodded in agreement: "Yes. We encountered something and happened to be nearby, so we came here."

Hu Pingtao understood what he said. But he still felt angry in his heart. After all, it felt really bad to be woken up from the hot bed at night: "If anything happens, call 110, or go to the police station.

Look carefully, this is the Public Security Bureau, not..."

The taxi driver was very smart. He caught the rhythm of Hu Pingtao's words, interrupted him again and again, and said with a smile: "It's inconvenient to make phone calls in the middle of the night! The police station is also far away. When we drive over, there will be some

It’s really hard to tell.”

Hu Pingtao just complained casually, but he got up anyway and wanted to hear what was going on. Following the previous case handling procedures at the police station, he called the two of them into the duty room and asked them to take out their ID cards.

The middle-aged man, the owner of the Xiaopeng car, is named Zhu Zhiguang.

The taxi driver's name is Wu Lie.

Hu Pingtao didn't ask. When he came out of the office building, he called the local police station, and someone was already sent there.

In this case, someone from the police station must be present. If it is a murder case, Hu Pingtao is fully responsible. If it is an ordinary civil dispute, then it is just right.

A few minutes later, people from the police station arrived and questioned the two people as usual.

Wu Lie said: "I was also a little baffled by what happened tonight. That... person was brought by him."

As he spoke, he raised his finger and pointed at Zhu Zhiguang, who was standing next to him.

The latter looked gloomy and unhappy. Faced with Wu Lie's accusation, Zhu Zhiguang neither admitted nor denied it.

"I'd better start from the beginning!"

Zhu Zhiguang moved a step forward and stood closer to Hu Pingtao. In his opinion, this young policeman gave people a good overall impression, and his police rank was also the highest among everyone present.

"I live in Guanghe Community. I bought a house there last year. At the beginning of this year, the house opposite was also sold, and a woman moved in. She looked to be in her thirties or almost forty years old, with a child.

My child is said to be in second grade."

"My wife just gave birth to a baby last year. After she was discharged from the hospital, she lived in her parents' house, mainly for the convenience of taking care of her. I usually run there when I have nothing to do, eat and accompany my wife, and then come back to live here at night. I am usually alone.

, don’t turn on the fire to cook, and go to work the next day.”

"After the neighbor across the door moved in, the woman often came and knocked on the door, asking for my help."

Hearing this, Hu Pingtao suddenly felt a special feeling that all men understand.

It's a bit ambiguous... It's no wonder, living alone with a female neighbor across the street, it's hard not to think about it!

Everyone present was all men, and they all understood when they heard this, including Hu Pingtao, and their expressions suddenly became a little strange.
