Facing the sudden bad break, Zheng Tianyou was caught off guard. His chubby face was filled with disbelief that the freedom he had been looking forward to for a long time was gone.
He trembled with his hands, not knowing where to put them. He hated himself for why he had nothing to do, followed others around, and even ended up in a gambling den!
He is also a person who has been at the bottom for many years, how could he be so stupid to go to a gambling den! His eldest cousin is not a living example of someone who was harmed by gambling!
Why!!!
From the corner of his lowered eyes, he saw a pair of hands placing a disposable cup on the coffee table in front of him.
A familiar voice sounded in his ears.
"Old Zheng, are you hungry? I've been busy today and haven't prepared a supper for you. Drink a glass of water to moisten your throat. Then go to the next room to take your relatives and friends home later."
He raised his head, his eyes full of shock.
The young policeman in front of me was smiling and said with a smile: "This time, for your sake, except for the few who run the casino, everyone will be let go."
"Leader! Officer Chen! This is really troublesome for you! This favor is really too big! I was the one who lost my composure earlier." Zheng Tianyou felt ashamed for his previous misunderstanding of this policeman, and now he wanted to bury his head on the ground.
Officer Chen, also known as Chen Shu, smiled warmly: "Just because of your expression just now, someone who didn't know you saw it and thought you would be sent to jail for a few years. Speaking of which, even if you were really detained, it would only be a few days.
.How do you say that? I will still be a good man when I come out in fifteen days!"
Zheng Tianyou's chubby watermelon face had a pleasant smile on his face after the rain. He was about to say something appropriate for the occasion, but Chen Shu waved his hand to suppress it.
"As for what you want to say to your relatives and friends later, that's your business. It's up to you."
As he spoke, Chen Shu became serious: "But from now on, you are absolutely not allowed to gamble anymore. Haven't you and I seen enough of the results of this thing?"
Zheng Tianyou took a deep breath and nodded his fat head heavily. His eldest cousin's experience was still vivid in his mind.
"Fat man, take a pair of scissors and cut off the plastic straps on Lao Zheng's hands, and then take him to the office next door where his relatives and friends are kept. Then cut off all their plastic straps."
Zhu Chaoran, who had been guarding Zheng Tianyou, was also tired. Seeing that the task was completed, he jumped up excitedly and agreed. He walked out with Zheng Tianyou in a hurry.
Chen Shu shouted from behind: "Old Zheng, remember to sign all the fine documents, so don't waste this little money!"
"okay!"
The cheerful echo of Zheng Tianyou, the illegal person and "tainted witness" in this gathering of gambling, came from the corridor.
Chen Shu leaned on the sofa and stretched his waist.
Wang Chongming has a saying that is quite right. It is indeed rare for me to handle cases as good as mine.
Of the three criminal suspects in the gambling case, it’s probably not too much for Brother Wang to share one with me.
Come tomorrow, Fatty Zheng has to give me a banner with two lines of big characters written on it:
Enforce the law fairly and eliminate harm for the people!
His eyes suddenly looked a little lonely, and he leaned back on the sofa, watching the electronic clock hanging above the wall "tick tock" and thought to himself.
I have saved my face and dignity for Lao Zheng. Next time I encounter some treacherous case, I should have something to exchange with him.
The case has been investigated and the records have been fixed. There is no need to detain several groups of people separately to avoid wasting police force.
Guessing that Zhu Chaoran had sent a group of Zheng Tianyou's people back into the detention room on the first floor, Chen Shu stood up and walked to the detention room downstairs.
He stared at the gambling participants lining up in front of him, waiting to sign and stamp their names on the table, thinking about the first mass gambling case he handled in the patrol brigade of the city bureau's special police detachment the year he graduated.
I was young at that time, and even though I was very energetic, I could easily trust others. When I was taking notes, I met several professional gamblers who were crying and regretting their mistakes.
To the extreme, I really hope from the bottom of my heart that the other person can change his ways and return to a normal life.
At that time, the one-year internship period had not yet expired, and the staff had not been regularized. I could only write notes for them, and had no power to handle cases.
So after taking notes, I can only offer them kind words and advice.
As a result, a few weeks later, during a routine sweep, we encountered the same gamblers, or dog gamblers, who were "crying and regretting" at the beginning.
At that time, Lin Chang, an old comrade from the special police detachment, stood next to Chen Shu. Looking at his expression of disbelief, he said something that has been passed down from generation to generation of police officers:
"When you bet on dogs, you can't trust even a single punctuation mark."
The Zhongshan Police Station was brightly lit and bustling with people.
Chen Shu raised his arm and looked at the time. Before he knew it, it was five o'clock in the morning, almost morning.
He calculated the time and decided to order a batch of breakfast for the guys who were working overtime to handle the case. After having a good meal, he could lie down and rest.
Although the canteen of the police station opens at 7:30 in the morning, for police officers who have stayed up all night, if they can go to bed a minute earlier, it will never be a second later.
Going to bed hungry is not as comfortable as having a full stomach. This is also the most practical thing after working on a case all night.
He walked to the front desk and asked the police officer Xiao Wang to ask everyone, count the number of people, order a batch of breakfast, and record the account to the security team.
Xiao Wang originally refused because they all had the usual subsidized late-night snacks at midnight. But seeing Chen Shu insisting, he nodded and agreed.
When passing the case handling area, looking at the closed door of the interrogation room inside, Chen Shu knocked on the door and walked in.
Wang Chongming stood next to a man with a scarred face, while trainee police officer Xu Lei sat on the interrogation table behind a computer screen and yawned.
Chen Shu waved to Wang Chongming, and the two walked to the observation room next door together.
"Brother Wang, I've taken care of everything over there. Now everyone is gathered together and placed in the detention room. How are you doing here?
Wang Chongming took out a pack of rare 555 cigarettes, handed one to Chen Shu, and said with regret: "The three people arrested this time all recognized it, and the record is almost over, but it is a pity that a lookout was left. It was the one who was arrested earlier.
And what you said found our 'eyes'."
Chen Shu took out the lighter from his pocket and lit a fire for both of them: "The 'eyes' have never been caught at the scene. Has his identity information been confirmed?"
Wang Chongming nodded.
Chen Shu glanced at the scar-faced man in the surveillance video and said with a smile: "Make time to make a call tomorrow or the day after tomorrow or go to his home. If nothing works, then go online. As far as the case is concerned, it is basically over."
"Online" here means wanted on the entire Internet, which is also commonly known as the national wanted order.
Wang Chongming's expression was obviously a little relaxed. He took a deep breath of cigarette and exhaled heavily: "Yes. I just controlled the person last night and looked at the dark crowd squatting on the ground. My
My mind was really confused at the time.”
The two chatted for a while and sighed about the case.
Chen Shu finally proposed that he would be responsible for sending the criminal detention materials of the case to the branch's legal affairs brigade for approval and to the detention center. Wang Chongming went to bed first, and the subsequent arrest approval and arrangement of the case and other related procedures were handed over to Wang Chongming.
After the two people discussed it, they started to work separately.
Most of the night has passed, and wisps of light are already shining through the thick clouds towards the city.
There are cigarette butts left all over the duty hall, interrogation room, interrogation room, office, and observation room of the Zhongshan Institute.
