Zhongjiang City Police Bureau is located in Dongcheng District of Zhongjiang City, several stops from the Hanfu Street Police Station where Su Le is located. Su Le drives to the Municipal Police Bureau building in more than ten minutes.

Su Lexian went to his mother Zhuang Ying's office and saw that Director Zhuang was going to have a meeting. Zhuang Ying was the deputy director in charge of the inspection work of Zhongjiang City Police Bureau.

Su Le came out of Director Zhuang's office and first went to the Household Administration Office to find out the information about the missing persons. He found the list and information of all missing persons surnamed Meng in Jiangbei Province in the information system, and prepared to go back to the branch to study and investigate carefully. Then he took the elevator to the floor where the Criminal Police Detachment was located. Guan Jie, the current captain of the Criminal Police Detachment, was Su Le's old partner during his lifetime, and was also the person Su Le respected and trusted the most. Every time Su Le came to the municipal bureau, Uncle Guan was the one he must see.

When the elevator reached the middle, the door suddenly opened. Standing at the elevator door was Guan Jie and Su Le’s mother Zhuang Ying. Su Le stepped out of the elevator and went over intimately to grab Guan Jie’s arm and shouted happily:

"Hello Uncle Guan!"

Guan Jie also hugged Su Le's shoulder and patted him intimately. Zhuang Ying saw the two of them intimately looking, and a gratified smile appeared on her face, but she felt a little disappointed.

"Hey, sister-in-law, don't be jealous. Lele and I have been dating since we were young!" Guan Jie said to Zhuang Ying jokingly.

Only then did Su Le glance at Zhuang Ying and called out in a regular manner: "Mom".

"You two are just a pair of kids! Lele has been disobedient since childhood, and you are all mean." Zhuang Ying said happily as she looked at her son.

"This is what you said, sister-in-law. I am used to Lele's admission to the police officer's university." Guan Jie quipped.

"Uncle Guan, has there been any major case recently?" Su Le asked Guan Jie anxiously.

"There are many major cases. Let's go and see with me." Guan Jie pulled Su Le and was about to enter the elevator, but Zhuang Ying called out from behind:

"Hey, you guys wait a moment. Lele, you follow me to the office first."

"Okay, since mom has something to ask you, I'll wait for you below." After Guan Jie said that, he turned around and the elevator.

Zhuang Ying poured a cup of hot tea and brought it to Su Le and said:

"Drink some water quickly and see if your lips are dry, be careful of getting angry!"

"Mom, what are you asking me for?"

"I've been very busy in the office in the past few days? Why haven't I seen you home in several days?" Zhuang Ying asked.

"The owner of a dumpling restaurant is missing and is investigating." Su Le replied.

"Is there any clue? Is it just that you are looking up?"

"There are some clues, and Sister Hui and the others have also intervened."

"Oh, that's good. You have to pay attention to rest and don't be tired."

"It's okay, mom, I'm in good health."

"If you are in good health, you should pay attention to rest. Only when you have good rest can you have the energy to work."

"I understand, mom, if nothing else, I'll go out first." Su Le said impatiently.

"Hey, you kid, you want to run away without saying a few words. I haven't said this important thing yet." Zhuang Ying said.

"Is there any serious matter?" Su Le asked in confusion.

"Yes! Tonight, Sister Xiaohui has made an appointment with a girl to have dinner with you, you must go." Zhuang Ying said with a stern face.

"I won't go." Su Le refused without thinking.

"You kid! I'll just listen to my mother's words this time, let's go there." Zhuang Ying said with a smile on her face.

"Mom, you are too old-fashioned! Now the person you introduces is just pushing a WeChat business card, so where do you need to eat?" Su Le said angrily.

"Yes, you're right. This is what normal people do." Zhuang Ying was a little angry when she thought of this.

"Why am I not normal?" Su Le muttered.

"How many girls' WeChat messages have been pushed to you by others? Have you added them?" Zhuang Ying said to Su Le.

"I've added it, I'm talking, why are you in a hurry?" Su Le said.

"Then show me your phone, and I'll see if you're chatting with me." Zhuang Ying reached out to Su Le for her phone.

"Mom! Do you know that you are a violation of privacy?" Su Le was not showing weakness either.

"Then will you go today?"

"Don't go!"

"But Xiaohui said, you promised her what she wanted to go." Zhuang Ying looked at Su Le and said.

"I, I'm not available today." Su Le's tone softened when he remembered He Xiaohui threatened him with the case.

"You have to go if you have time or not! I'm not asking you to tell you whether to go or not. Xiaohui said that she has a way."

"Then why are you looking for me?" Su Le stood up and wanted to leave.

"Wait!" Zhuang Ying stood up and walked to the desk, took out a bag from behind the desk, returned to Su Le and said:

"This is a newly bought clothes for you. Change them when you go, don't wear police uniforms, and scare the girl."

Su Le forgot about her mother whose hair was already gray, and a warm current surged from the bottom of her heart. Since her father left, her mother raised herself alone. She had already started working and should not let her mother worry about her anymore. Thinking of this, he took the bag and nodded, turned around and walked out of the office.

Guan Jie was now organizing tasks in the conference room of the Criminal Investigation Detachment. Su Le quietly opened the back door. When Guan Jie saw Su Le, he signaled him to come in. Su Le found a seat in the back row and sat down quietly.

"Today's task is very arduous, everyone must be motivated! There are not many situations in which our three brigades jointly attack. Today, it is not to see how everyone competes, but how everyone cooperates. Do you understand?!" Guan Jie's bright voice resounded in the conference room.

"I understand!" A louder answer rang out in the conference room.

"Okay! What we are facing today is an international drug trafficking organization. Our municipal bureau cooperated with Interpol to track this criminal group for more than a year. Today, it is finally time to close the network." Guan Jie continued:

"The first brigade is responsible for the blockade of the intersections around the Joint Hotel, the second brigade is responsible for the investigation of the external makeup and investigation of the Joint Hotel, and the third brigade is used to make up for the security guards and waiters of the hotel. Our task is to cooperate with the actions of the anti-drug detachment, control the on-site situation near the Joint Hotel, and prevent criminals from escaping. Do you understand?"

"I understand!" Answers rang out in the conference room.

Su Le sat in the last seat, and was secretly surprised when he heard Guan Jie's arrangement. There were not many cases where the only three brigades of the Criminal Investigation Detachment played at the same time!

"Okay, I order all the team members participating in the operation to turn off their phones and wait for the anti-drug detachment to issue the action order!" After Guan Jie made the action order, he breathed a little relieved and looked at his watch.

At this time, the door of the conference room was suddenly opened, and a young detective made a standard salute at the door.

"Report!"

"Say, what's the matter?" Guan Jie asked.

"I received a report from Zerui County, lower reaches of Zhongjiang City, and a middle-aged man was found on the riverside." The young criminal policeman reported the news mechanically.

When he heard the young detective's report, Su Le immediately stood up. His keen intuition told him that this matter must be related to the missing case being investigated. So he raised his hand to signal to Guan Jie in the back of the conference room, and pointed to the detective who had just come in to report. Guan Jie noticed Su Le's reaction and said to the young detective;

"You, come to the office with me."

Su Le followed Guan Jie and the young detective into Guan Jie's office, immediately grabbed the young detective and asked:

"You just said that a body was found downstream of Zhongjiang?"

"Yes, Zerui County just called and asked for support from the municipal bureau."

"Uncle Guan, I suspect that the body is related to the owner of the dumpling restaurant who disappeared a few days ago. I requested to go with the team to investigate on the spot." Then Su Le briefly told Guan Jie about the disappearance case.

After hearing the case, Guan Jie asked:

“Who is currently responsible for the disappearance case?”

"Now the case is under the responsibility of the Dongcheng Criminal Police Brigade." Su Le replied.

"No, I'm so busy here. You can deal with the man's corpse in the middle of the river. I'll ask the technical investigator of the municipal bureau to help you." Guan Jie took out the phone and dialed a number:

"Dr. Qiao, I have work to do."

Su Le couldn't hear what was said on the other end of the phone, but he could probably guess some clues. After all, in the Zhongjiang City police system, no one didn't know Dr. Qiao's name.

"Take your people to Zerui County immediately and find a middle-aged male body in the river."

A vague question came from the other end of the phone.

"You will know when you arrive at the scene. OK, I'll make arrangements right away." Guan Jie showed a smug smile on his face, and then hung up the phone.

Guan Jie glanced at Su Le and immediately called another phone number. The phone was picked up as soon as it rang.

"Xiao He, a middle-aged male corpse was found in Jiangzhong, Zerui County. Su Le has reported to me. You are now taking over this case."

"Yes!" Su Le could hear He Xiaohui's excited voice coming from the receiver of his phone from the phone.

"I have notified Dr. Qiao to go and help you," said Guan Jie.

"Okay." He Xiaohui replied.

"Dr. Qiao told me not to salvage the body first, and to salvage it when he arrives." Guan Jie continued.

"I'll make arrangements right away." He Xiaohui replied.

Before Guan Jie finished the call, Su Le quickly ran out the door. As soon as he came to the first floor lobby from the elevator, he received a call from He Xiaohui.

"Okay, Lele, you have made contributions!" He Xiaohui's excited body voice came from the phone.

Since she was transferred to the Dongcheng Branch, she has almost never encountered a murder case. Even if she sometimes occurs in the jurisdiction of Dongcheng, the Municipal Bureau Detachment will directly intervene. Their brigade has no involvement, and at most they just do some errands. Guan Jie directly handed over the case to He Xiaohui for responsibility this time, which made her very excited.

"I haven't seen the corpse yet, what contributions have you made?"

"You can grab the case, even if you make a contribution."

"Oh, this case is ours. Besides, people are busy with major drug-related cases."

"Okay, let's go out immediately, you can go to the scene with Dr. Qiao." The sound of He Xiaohui opening and closing the car door was heard from the phone.
