The governor of Dongyang County is Sugar Cane. He has a good reputation and some abilities. Under his governance, Dongyang County has become much better than in previous years.
Ganzhe didn't like to flatter others. He was okay as a person, but average as an official. If he hadn't had a good teacher to back him up, the position of the county guard would have been replaced long ago.
At the county magistrate's residence, Ganzhe looked at the magistrate of Changshan County for a while, then said quietly: "There is a missing person case recently, do you know about it?"
Upon hearing this, Chai Guangxiao, the magistrate of Changshan County, said: "Old Zhou actually mentioned it to me, saying that he might have eloped with someone."
Ganzhe rubbed his head and said: "The Sufferer has been in Guandao and Changshan County for three days. This matter has spread all over the city and has a very bad impact! The Chinese New Year is about to come. Let's solve the case as soon as possible so that it can benefit the people.
An explanation will allow the people to live a good New Year with peace of mind."
The county guard had spoken, but Chai Guangxiao didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly bowed down and returned to the county government office. As soon as he arrived at the county government office, he called for Zhou Captou.
Zhou Captou looks to be in his fifties. He has been working as a detective for more than 20 years and is quite famous in Dongyang County.
I saw that Captor Zhou was not tall and a little thin, but his eyes were very bright. When he looked at people, it seemed as if there were hooks in his eyes, which could pull out all the internal organs of a person.
Zhou Baotou quickly came to Chai Guangxiao, bowed and said in salute: "I wonder, the county magistrate, why are you calling me?"
Although Zhou Baotou was famous, he was still a "official" and not an official, so he couldn't help but be very respectful in front of the county magistrate.
Chai Guangxiao said without any doubt: "I will give you three days for Pandi's case! If there is no result in the case once the deadline is reached, your subordinates will be punished, and you will not need to receive the salary for this month."
The case of missing persons has never been a big one. Why is the county magistrate paying so much attention to it today? Captain Zhou was very surprised, but he still followed the order: "I obey, I will handle it now."
Zhou Captou frowned all the way back to the class room, not even paying attention to the greetings from his colleagues.
In the squad room, Capt. Zhou looked at his eight subordinates and said, "The county magistrate only gave us three days for Pandi's case, so please keep your spirits up. Be careful whoever makes a mistake, I will blame you."
All the detectives were busy obeying orders, because everyone knew that the leader would arrange their own work soon.
"Stop what you are doing, Monkey, Lao Liu, go and have a look at the scene. Qingzi, Erdan go to Zhengyang Village to find out. You must rush back before the sun goes down! Mantis, Huzi, give me all the files on the missing people this year.
I'll move here, and the others will stay where they are."
When the arrester Zhou finished speaking, the arresters who received the order quickly took their orders and left...
I saw an old policeman coming to Zhou Captou and saying, "Did you make it so urgent because the owner brought trouble to the county magistrate?"
Zhou Captou smiled bitterly and said: "It would be great if the sufferer found the county magistrate. Just now when the county magistrate came to see me, I asked the guard. The county magistrate just came back from beating the county magistrate, so this matter is almost to the county magistrate.
That’s it!”
The old detective frowned and said: "The county guard is not as easy to fool as our county magistrate. This matter really requires some effort!"
While the two were talking, the county government's grievance drum sounded. The grievance drum had not been sounded for many years. Even if the people had grievances and disputes, they would not beat the drum. After all, once the drum was sounded, the matter could not be concealed.
.
Zhou Captou was startled when he heard the drum sound, and couldn't help but take his two brothers and go straight to the county government hall...
Qingshan beat the drum, and the sound of the drum spread throughout Changshan County.
Chai Guangxiao trotted all the way to the front of the government office and shouted to the man in green shirt who was hammering the drum: "Don't hammer me! If you hammer me any more, you will break my drum of injustice!"
The man in green shirt put down his drumstick, straightened his body and saluted, saying, "I have met you, sir."
Chai Guangxiao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Come in with me."
Logically speaking, as long as the grievance drum sounds, it must be the person who goes to court to resolve the case. But it is different today. Although Chai Guangxiao is not very capable, he is discerning. When he sees the sword box on the man's back, he will know this.
If you are not a simple person, don’t go to the church.
After being promoted to the hall, even if you ask the gentleman to kneel down, he will not kneel down. If he does not kneel down, where is the majesty of the yamen, and the gentleman obviously does not know how to kneel, so why bother to make everyone look ugly.
Chai Guangxiao let his husband go to the back hall, and at the same time waved his hand at the guards, shooing them away like flies...
"I don't know what to call Mr. Lang? What's the point of grievance for playing the drum?"
After Chai Guangxiao gave up his seat, he straightened up and asked.
Qingshan Langjun cupped his hands and said: "Li Taiping, a small citizen, met the Zhao family's grandmother in Zhengyang Village on the road and learned that her daughter was missing. He was asked by her to inspect the crime scene and found that Pandi had been kidnapped, so he came to the county government to complain.
.”
When Chai Guangxiao heard that it was about this case again, he couldn't help but frown slightly. The Zhao family in Zhengyang Village was really clever. They actually used a two-pronged approach, taking the path of a county guard while also looking for people in the world.
"It turns out to be little brother Taiping. I have handed over the Zhao family's case to Chief Zhou and given a deadline of three days to solve the case. Little brother, you can wait for a few days and the results will naturally come."
Li Taiping stood up and held up his hands and said: "Sir, I have a cruel request. I wonder if you can accept it?"
Chai Guangxiao smiled and said: "Little brother, it's okay to say it. If it's something within the scope of my official power, I can handle it for you."
"I would like to cooperate with Mr. Zhou in investigating this case, please be accommodating."
"this--"
After listening to Li Taiping's words, Chai Guangxiao was in trouble. It was against the rules for Jianghu people to participate in solving the case. If someone new took part in the crime, the county governor would not say anything, but it would be a shame.
After all, Chai Guangxiao had been struggling in the officialdom for decades. Although his abilities were average, his ability to seek good fortune and avoid evil was quite good. He couldn't help but think for a while before saying.
"This matter is not impossible, but I have to force my little brother to temporarily serve as a county police officer for a few days. This is justifiable and convenient for my little brother to solve the case."
Li Taiping didn't feel it was inappropriate, so he agreed with a smile.
I saw Chai Guangxiao summoning the chief bookkeeper and registering the records. When Li Taiping walked out of the back hall of the Yamen, he seemed to have become a county official and was arrested in Changshan County.
Chai Guangxiao also had a bright idea and directly gave Li Taiping the post of head catcher. However, he was a mere commander and did not even have a messenger under his command.
Looking at Li Taiping leaving, Chai Guangxiao was happy that he had such a good thing that he was offered to be a man of his own accord.
Chai Guangxiao summoned Capt. Zhou again, revealed Li Taiping's identity, and informed him that the case was still dominated by Capt. Zhou, and that Li Taiping was just a temporary helper.
When Zhou Captou returned to the prison room, Li Taiping had been waiting there for a long time.
I saw Mr. Zhou taking three steps at a time and then two steps, coming to Li Taiping and saying with a smile: "Is this Mr. Li the new employee?"
Seeing Li Taiping nod, Zhou Captou took out his waist badge and handed it over: "I am Zhou Captou from Changshan County. I just stopped by and picked up Li Captou's waist badge."
The waistband is half the size of a palm and is oval in shape. One side is engraved with the word shop, and the other side is inscribed in detail with the identity and position of the waistband holder, as well as the area of employment and other information.
Although the police officers of the Daqian Dynasty were not officials, they also wore waistbands with anti-counterfeiting patterns to prevent imitation.
Li Taiping took the belt card and put it into his arms, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Zhou for arresting your head!"
Capt. Zhou ordered someone to make tea, and pointed at the table full of files and said with a wry smile: "I'm not afraid of Capt. Li's jokes. Look, in a small Changshan County, there are dozens of missing persons cases a year! There are only about thirty arrests in the county. It's not that the brothers are unwilling to work hard to solve the case, but they are simply too busy, so they can only pick up the important cases first."
Li Taiping had rarely dealt with the government, and had no experience in serving in the government. Looking at the pile of files, he couldn't help but secretly sighed, thinking, "It's not easy to be an official!".
Captain Zhou saw what Li Taiping was thinking, so he couldn't help but fill up another handful of firewood and said: "This is our missing persons file from Changshan County. Our Dongyang County summary file is at the county magistrate's residence, where there are more!"
Li Taiping frowned and said, "I won't look at the other weights for now. Let me talk about my findings first."
In about half a cup of tea, Li Taiping and Zhou Captou sorted out some clues about Pandi's case. They were certain that the person who committed the crime must be a master of martial arts, at least with a strength of about fifth grade, otherwise there would be no trace at all. Leave.
The ancestors of the Zhao family are all farmers, so it is impossible to have any grudges with Jianghu people. And Pandi looks ordinary, and it is impossible to be kidnapped by flower pickers. As for kidnapping, extorting money, and being caught on the mountain to work as a village wife, etc. , even more unreliable.
After spending half a cup of tea together, the two of them came up with only one clue that the person who committed the crime was a martial arts master, and there was no other clue.
I saw Captain Zhou rubbing his head and saying: "I'm afraid of this kind of case. If we can't find the motive of the person who committed the crime, we won't even have a direction to investigate the case! If this person just committed the crime on a temporary basis, this case will not be solved." Let’s investigate! Unless the perpetrator is a habitual criminal who has committed crimes many times, we may be able to find some clues.”
I saw the old detective on the side suddenly got up and rummaged through the files on the case. After a short time, I saw the old detective dug out a pile of files, handed it to Captain Zhou and said: "I remember that there was an incident involving a girl at the beginning of the year. Disappearance case, I wonder if the two cases are related?"
Zhou Captou patted the old captor on the head and shoulders and said with a smile: "Old Gao, you have a good memory!"
Li Taiping took Pandi's dossier and opened the dossier in his hand with Zhou Baotou at the same time to compare...
The file first recorded the name, age, address of the missing person, and the time when the case occurred. After careful comparison, the two found that the birth dates of these two people were actually people born in the yin year, yin month, yin day, and yin time. That means Pandi and the other missing girl are both pure yin bodies.
Li Taiping and Zhou Captou looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes. The two continued to open the files and compare them, but they didn't find any similarities until they finished comparing the files. Of course, they were not completely absent. It's because the two of them ignored one thing and one person at the same time...
