Chapter 62 Proving Value Tools

  "A draw." Li Quan announced the result with apparent satisfaction, slightly favoring his own disciple.

  The match was lost by Tian Miao Miao. As per the rules, not raising the gun does not count as a score. The girl excitedly waved her small fist and jumped up. She directly gave Li Quan a hug. Old Li ah-yo-ah-yo felt that men and women were different and didn't know where to put his hands.

  This result Zhou Bin is definitely not satisfied. He stood up with a dark face and looked at Li Quan's melon, feeling angry but not hitting the spot. He pulled down the seedlings and said viciously: "Next Monday, you and Xiao Jing from the finance department go buy that thermos box you mentioned. Remember to haggle over the price. If you buy it expensive, come back and see how I deal with you."

  Zeng's words carried weight. Gao Xiang has now become a car owner. Chief Zhou called him to the office and scolded him severely, then handed him a Jetta car key.

  Gao Xiang drove out in that black Jetta. Tian Miao was too embarrassed to ride in his car with its peeling paint and mud splatters, it looked like a stolen vehicle.

  The team had only a few police cars, and the rest were all civilian vehicles for external use. Sometimes, dirty cars that had been collected would be used directly for a period of time. It wasn't until then that Gao Xiang understood why the old detectives in the team kept changing cars to drive. They had cars, but they also worried about them being fuel-inefficient. The team hadn't mentioned anything about gasoline before. He wanted to ask Captain Luo, but he couldn't muster up the courage. When he found Luo Lin, his nose wasn't a nose and his mouth wasn't a mouth: "If you can't afford gas, then give me the car to drive. You've only been here for a short while, and you're already driving a police car? I've been in this big team for many years, but they never gave me an entire car. Look at your silly appearance, wearing that uniform, what are you even doing? Can't even afford a few gas coupons, it's something to worry about. Think about it yourself, if you can't figure it out, then don't say I'm your senior."

  Environment and life, since it can't be changed, one can only learn to adapt. Gao Xiang still doesn't understand what the connection is between police uniforms and gas tickets. Wandering around in this city's jungle of steel and concrete all day, being able to maintain a thread of warmth is not easy. Gao Xiang has always been in contact with Dangzi and Daliman; Dangzi couldn't take it anymore and quit his job already. Daliman is still messing around at the police station. They help each other out when something comes up, lending a hand whenever possible.

  The original four big cheap men of the special recruitment class, Jia Junpeng and Wen Qi can be contacted at any time. But Zhu Weitao, this kid, can only get through 1 or 2 calls out of 10. Even when he picks up, he's always hesitant and unclear. Gao Xiang really wants to go find him but doesn't know where he ended up being assigned to. Zhu Weitao also left early during the graduation ceremony back then, didn't have time to catch up. Now it feels wrong, but it's already too late.

  In the dormitory, Gao Xiang turned on the desk lamp and fished out a notebook from the corner. Upon opening it, he was surprised to find that it was the same one they had scribbled all over during class with Gong Qian. He carefully took out a printed A4 paper and unfolded it, bursting into laughter. The paper was their assignment from a certain time, on which the four idiots had collectively made fools of themselves, resulting in zero points for everyone.

  Dormitory insecticide poisoning case of class 5.21

  Special Recruitment Class (Criminal Investigation) Examination No. [201501]

  Case Brief: At 7:25 pm on May 21, 2015, Zhu Weitao, a student of the special recruitment class, found a dead body in his dormitory after finishing training and immediately reported to the police station of the special recruitment class. Police officer Jia Junpeng rushed to the scene to protect it after receiving the report and reported the basic situation to the base criminal police detachment. After receiving the order, the criminal police team rushed to the scene for investigation. The on-site investigation record is as follows:

  The crime scene is located at Linfen City Police Training Base, special recruitment class dormitory B3-224. The weather on the scene was clear and windless, suitable for investigation and evidence collection. A female insect corpse was found at the scene with no obvious injuries. The specific cause of death requires a forensic autopsy examination. There were no signs of trampling or scratching around the body. No property was lost from the victim's body, but the corpse had a special pungent odor, suspected to be foot odor poisoning.

  On-site inspection personnel: Wen Qi, specially recruited class of Criminal Police. Phone 4947

  Gao Xiang, a special police officer from the local police station, received a call on 4947 and rushed over to pick him up.

  Witness: Zhao Xiaolong. Special recruitment class crane tail personnel. Phone 4923.

  Lao Hei instructor let them learn to write case reports. As a result, they wrote out a foot odor poisoning. This homework Gao Xiang still keeps until now. Nothing to do with taking it out to see. How to look at how happy.

  Gong Qian often receives phone calls from various classmates, but she mostly just gives them lip service. The only ones she takes seriously are Wang Min, Han Juan and Su Su; Tian Miao Miao suddenly thought of calling Zhang Tong, but no matter how many times she tried, what time she called, whose phone she used or in what position she called, she couldn't get through even once. Zhang Tong never returned her calls either. This made Tian Miao Miao very worried, and she wanted to go to the special police force to deal with her but couldn't take time off work.

  Zhang Tong can't be reached. It's quite unexpected that Ye Dui often calls her. Once, Tian Miao Miao asked her indirectly: Aren't you supposed to have a good relationship with Gong Qian? Who knew Ye Dui would tell her straightforwardly:

  "Class monitor has too many friends. One more is no big deal, one less is also no big deal. I think you're aware of my temper. How come when I'm good to you, you don't want to be good to me?"

  Zhou Bin now sees Tian Miao and gets a headache. Originally thought that the three people who came separately, excluding Chen Gang's technicality, would not be discussed. The most promising one is definitely Gao Xiang, who personally wanted to come. This kid did not disappoint his expectations. In just one month, he can already follow the old detective to go out on external missions. This kid's marksmanship is not bad. Having been used to shooting the 95 rifle and 92 pistol in the army, it seems that he has his own way of doing things when shooting the 64. Zhou Bin took him to the training ground for an assessment. 20-meter rapid-fire pistol target. Six bullets fired out two tens, three nines, and one eight, a good score.

  Everyone in the team knew that the captain was skilled. He had been a scout before. After retiring and putting on police uniform, he even acted in a big movie like "Infernal Affairs" (as an undercover agent). At first, everyone was not convinced that Gao Xiang could become the captain's apprentice. But after seeing Gao Xiang's shooting results, they were finally convinced. He was indeed talented. Zhou Bin paid more attention to this apprentice and often took time to personally instruct Gao Xiang in handgun shooting, making other external staff envy him.

  And this Tian Miao Miao, well-behaved baby-like, had been in the armory for a whole month, which made him want to go crazy after just two days of being on duty outside. It was quiet and tight. But after a month, Zhou Bin suddenly discovered that this girl was about to usurp the throne and become the housekeeper of the first squadron.

  She helped in the cafeteria for over 20 days, and the quality of the meals has risen sharply. All internal staff and external personnel are full of praise; previously, hygiene regulations were just a formality for external personnel. After Tian Miao Miao attended the case analysis meeting for the first time and was nauseated by the smell in the conference room, the external police officers were scolded. Now, even if there is a slight smell of smoke, they hurriedly open the windows...

  Her regular job also made her do all sorts of things. Generally, police on patrol basically can't even touch a gun. A whole team hasn't had a case involving guns in several months. Under normal circumstances, a detective might not have the opportunity to fire a gun all year. Gao Xiang that kid openly spread rumors saying: Carrying a baton while on duty is more comfortable than carrying a gun. Not to mention it's over a kilogram heavier. And you have to put it in a holster. If you dare to put it back on your waist, Tian Miao will train you to death.

  "You're all pigs! I've told you so many times. You have holsters, but you still insist on stuffing your guns in your waistbands. Look at how dirty you all are! The guns get skin flakes and sweat stains on them, which causes rust and is hard to clean. It makes me sick every time. Next time, you... and you... and you... if you dare go more than a week without taking a bath, I'll have someone strip your pants off!"

  Bai Si couldn't figure it out and asked the team's psychological analyst, female police officer Zhang Wei, who told him that this girl was born with a natural affinity for getting along with people and was extremely skilled at interpersonal relationships. Team leader Zhou expressed his deep agreement and immediately started thinking about where to place Tian Miao Miao in a suitable position. If she continued to stay in the gun storage room, it would be a waste of her talent.

  Wu Yi Road. First Criminal Police Brigade. Another weekend.

  "Surrender"

  Luo Lin and Gao Xiang, a pair of armed police officers on duty, pushed open the door to the armory and shouted out loud. With a "slap", they slapped their guns onto the table.

  Li Quan didn't even lift his head and said: "Wait for Miao Miao to come back, sign and verify the gun."

  "Ruo Lin slapped a palm on Gao Xiang's back of the head: "How many times have I told you, kid? When entering, report and knock on the door. When handing over guns, handle them gently. How can you not remember? Go buy a pack of cigarettes at the entrance. Old Li and I will chat for a bit..."

  Li Quan gave him a glance, and the implication in his eyes was: Good for you that you know what's good for you.

  Gao Xiang didn't rush to buy cigarettes either. With a calm face, he asked: "Uncle Li, I was wrong; why didn't I see Tian Miao Miao today?"

  Li Quan glared at him with a pair of eyes, pulled open the drawer, took out a pack of Furongwang and threw it to them. Watching them start smoking, he also sighed. The two had been running around outside for over a month. Gao Xiang, this kid, was even darker than before. No need to say, this was exhausting. Being a detective, not seeing each other's faces for three to five days at a time was normal.

  "What are you blindly listening to? Don't waste words, just sign the two of you." Li Quanyou wiped his gun and said to Gao Xiang: "How is it? I heard that you have a good relationship with my apprentice, from the same place."

  Luolin interrupted, "That's not true. They were both auxiliary police officers at the same police station back then. You don't know about it, do you? Xiao Miao was harassed by a little thug while collecting management fees at the comprehensive market, and I was the one who saved her."

  Gao Xiang was shocked. How could Tian Miao have encountered such a thing? Li Quan said with deep meaning: "Young man, everyone praises you for being good at cooking. You should know that no matter how fragrant the dishes in the pot are, they can't compare to the fragrance of one's own bowl."

  Gao Xiang's mind was filled with "So Tian Miao Miao had suffered this kind of injustice too" and didn't have the energy to think about anything else. Luo Lin, on the other hand, understood and covered his mouth to stifle a laugh. Li Quan looked at him with a silly expression and couldn't help but continue to enlighten him: "Youngster, have you seen this gun?"

  "Ah, which gun? The one on top or the one below?" Gao Xiang replied with a chuckle.

  "You little brat, how dare you talk to Old Li like that!" Luo Lin scolded Gao Xiang and continued: "Old Li means guns, the tools with which our police force can overcome fear and prove our core values. You've got a gun in your hand, why are you still so timid? Although I've been on the team for four or five years, I've only fired into the air a few times."

  Li Quan had a face full of wrinkles from laughing and said: "No, no, you're all wrong. Women are the best tool to prove a man's core values. Haha... So, Gao Xiang, you'd better hurry up and grasp Tian Miao Miao as your tool."
