Chapter 91: The Lost Contact Case (2)

  Zhou Bin, who was eating, choked on a garlic sprout and almost lost his breath. Zhang Wei also blushed. Angrily, she scolded Gao Xiang. Forensic expert Zhao sister put down her lunch box and stared at the two of them, saying: "Although this kid Gao Xiang is usually unreliable, I think his analysis this time is still accurate. Look at Zhang Wei's expression, there's something fishy going on. I'm telling you, Zhou team leader, it's better if you confess voluntarily, otherwise your comrades will have to use some special techniques on you."

  Xia Zhang Wei's face turned even redder as she stomped her foot. She scolded, "Zhao Jie, why are you also joining in on the teasing? I knew I shouldn't have come back today." Zhou Bin stood up and patted the table, trying to cover it up: "Alright, alright, let's not make a big deal out of this. Everyone should just scatter and do their own thing. Tian Miao Miao, come with me."

  Tian Miao didn't escape the task of being the head of the special case team. Unwillingly, she followed Team Leader Zhou back to the office.

  "Go ahead. Want equipment, want support, want expenses. As long as you don't ask me for people. You can have whatever you want."

  Tian Miao rolled her eyes directly. Aren't you talking nonsense? Why did I come if no one needs me? Zhou Bin looked at her helplessly and said, "Other teams have tasks to complete. We can't just drop the case now and recall people for you, can we? Tian Miao, you've been here long enough, you should know that there's no such thing as a small case in our hands.

  Besides, I'm not giving you nobody. Luo Lin's team is an elite troop. Except for your old classmate Gao Xiang, their team members Zhang Hua and Wang Hongtao will also be under your command this time. Then think of a way from the logistics department."

  Tian Miao's eyes rolled over. If Gao Xiang and the other three were all under my command, that wouldn't be impossible either. Suddenly... suddenly. A scene flashed into his mind. He opened his mouth and almost scared Zhou Bin to death: "I also want your wife..." Then he ran away. Zhou Bin was so angry that he jumped up and chased after him for two steps before bursting out laughing. It seemed like this little girl had arrived and the atmosphere in the team had become much more lively.

  On Saturday, Tian Miao and Luo Lin formally announced the list of members for this special task force:

  Group Leader: Luo Lin, Tian Miao Miao;

  Team members: Zhang Hua, Wang Hongtao, Zhang Wei, Gao Xiang, Gong Qian, Chen Gangqiang;

  Putting Luo Lin in front was a small thought of Tian Miao. Except for Gao Xiang, the rest of them were old qualifications in the team and definitely didn't want to be led by a woman in their hearts.

  Gong Qian kicked open the door with a loud bang, which had an A4 printed paper stuck on it that read "Temporary Office of 4.4 Special Case Group". Tian Miao Miao, who was reading documents with her legs crossed, was startled and almost fell over. She looked up to see Gong Qian's face right in front of hers. Tian Miao Miao pushed her aside and asked gruffly:

  "What are you doing? What's wrong with this comrade? No organization, no discipline. The special task force has just been established and you're already kicking the door."

  "You're taking revenge." Gong Qian said with a huff.

  Tian Miao blinked her eyes, pretending not to understand. Gong Qian was so angry that she wanted to punch her twice. "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. First-time update? You just want to take revenge on me. Otherwise, why would you get me into the special case group? What can I do? What can I do? You are all here to practice. I am being supported by others..."

  Gong Qian couldn't go on. Tian Miao Miao stood up and patted her, saying excitedly: "So this time, let's exercise together! Ah, Gong Qian, you're too modest. Don't mention others, just our special case team has only a few people. When we report back to the brigade, maybe even Commander Bao will train Team Leader Zhou!"

  "Why not? You're short-handed, aren't you? Other criminal investigation teams have enough manpower. Why can't you mobilize your elite troops like others do?" Tian Miao Miao perfectly mimicked Deputy Director Su's tone. Even Gong Qian couldn't help but laugh. With a raised eyebrow and a playful smile, she continued to tease Gong Qian: "But with your name added, it's different. As soon as Bao Zhi sees your name, he'll understand. Hmm... we must take this seriously. This is the first case you're officially taking on as a deputy director, Gong Xiaojie. We have to go all out to support you and crack this case. Think about it, later when we need something, they'll owe us one. So, do you get it? Got it?"

  Gong Qian walked out the door with her hat on, only to realize a few steps later how foolish she was. How did Tian Miao manage to deceive her again? That damned Tian Miao! You can't just swindle people like that. Who knows who Gong Qian is when it comes to handling serious cases?

  Is it said that this Tian Miao is really her destined nemesis. Since the struggle with her in the special recruitment class, it seems that she has never had an advantage. Especially after joining the big team, the number of times she was deceived by her is already uncountable. Thinking of this, Gong Qian smiled bitterly and went to notify each office one by one.

  The comrades of the task force held their first case discussion meeting. After Tian Miao distributed the materials, she didn't say a word. Luo Lin looked at the list, then at Tian Miao, and without caring about her protest, he stood up and pulled Tian Miao to the main seat and sat her down. He himself sat next to Tian Miao. Seeing that Tian Miao still wanted to make trouble, he rubbed her nose and scolded:

  "Stop playing these petty tricks on me. Worried that they can't be controlled. More and faster chapters, please come quickly. Can't do it. Zhou team has named you as the group leader. Don't give me any lip service. Come on, everyone, show your attitude."

  "What's the attitude? Of course I will obey Miao Miao's leadership." Gao Xiang hastily expressed his stance.

  "One-sided, you don't count. Pets shouldn't join in the fun." As soon as Luo Lin said this, everyone burst out laughing. Luo Lin's words were really... quite vivid. In the team, Gao Xiang was indeed like Tian Miao Miao's pet. Whenever Tian Miao Miao shouted an order, he would run faster than a rabbit. Over time, Luo Lin jokingly called him Tian Miao Miao's pet.

  Gao Xiang's eyes were about to turn red. "You're something else, Luo Shao Ye! You can stand there and talk without getting tired. Don't you see who's backing her up? I don't believe Old Zeng would yell at Luo Lin if he dared not to report it." The crowd burst into laughter again. What Gao Xiang said was also the truth. Tian Miao Miao had been using him for most of the time, waving Old Zeng's flag. Who made Gao Xiang's cooking so delicious?

  "Alright, alright. I've gone off topic. You guys are so informal from the start of the meeting. Tian Miao Miao, let me make a statement. I'll definitely follow the leadership of the special task force. Wherever you point, I'll hit. Are you relieved now?" Zhang Wei was still as understanding as ever. As soon as she made her statement, the others also followed suit. Tian Miao Miao smiled wryly: "Relieved? How could we not be relieved? The captain's wife has spoken up. Are they going to dare disobey...?" Zhang Wei's face turned red like a lobster. Her silver teeth were clenched tightly as she pinched Tian Miao Miao hard...

  They were all young people. They handled things decisively and were all annoyed at the meeting. Before long, Tian Miao Miao led the team out. A line of police officers drove two cars to Beizhonghuan Street. One was a police car, mainly for convenience and coordination. The other was a van. Inside, they carried various instruments needed by Chen Gang. Among the eight people, only Luo Lin and Zhang Wei wore police uniforms. The rest were in plain clothes. When they were about to leave, Tian Miao Miao secretly took Li Quan with him. He sneaked away to fill out a gun application form for Zhou Bin's signature. Zhou Bin was furious, slamming his hand on the table, saying: "You go out and first have a meeting at the Dongjie Police Station and Xinghua Ridge Branch. After that, you can discuss the next action plan. What are you doing taking a gun out?"

  Tian Miao Miao rolled her eyes and said, "I heard Gao Xiang say that every time we go on a mission, the team leader of each group doesn't carry a gun? If it's a big case, everyone wears a gun...". After finishing speaking, she saw Zhou Bin still not signing. Tian Miao Miao pouted and said, "What's with this 'sharp knife' unit of the Da Yuan Municipal Bureau, the nemesis of criminals, the police among police? As a result, our broken team is still using 64s. We finally got a few 92-style guns, but I haven't even seen what they look like yet. Li Quan locked them in an insurance cabinet. Now that I'm also a team leader, I can apply for one according to the rules."

  Zhou Bin understood after slapping the table. It turned out that a new batch of 92-style pistols didn't have her share. She felt unbalanced in her heart. Like competing with a little girl for a doll, she was furious and amused Zhou Bin. Tian Miao Miao wasn't someone who would eat losses easily. Seeing others eating radishes made her want to pounce on them and take two bites. Zhou Bin angrily threw the application form at her, his face stern, saying: "As long as you focus on solving this case within the time limit, I'll give you my pistol. From now on, it's your exclusive sidearm. Look, treatment of a big team leader!"

  Tian Miao's eyes lit up: This is indeed the truth. Zhou Bin raised his hand. Tian Miao smiled and ran away like a little fox.

  Chen Gang was indeed a weak chicken. His technical department had been busy lately, working overtime every day. They were so busy that they wished they could split one person into two; Tian Miao found him and told him that the special case group needed someone with external experience in technology. He agreed without hesitation. After finding the head of the department and persuading him, he even guaranteed that he would work overtime voluntarily on weekends and holidays to ensure that his departure would not affect the progress of the technical department's tasks before letting the department head agree.

  Everyone has made great progress after working for half a year. Weak chicken, can't call him that anymore. Chen Gang has fully utilized his professional expertise in the first team and has become more confident. Compared to when he was in the special recruitment class, it's like heaven and earth apart. Tian Miao Miao thanked him sincerely.

  Che Shang Chen Gang proposed the first suggestion to Tian Miao Miao, the leader of the task force:

  "Two team leaders. Our task has a large scope of investigation and a wide coverage area. It would be best to have someone who understands technology to stay in the rear and provide timely technical support." Tian Miao Miao tilted her head and thought for a moment. She pressed the intercom and asked Luo Lin, who was in the police car ahead, if he had any suggestions for suitable candidates. Luo Lin and the others in his car discussed it but couldn't think of anyone suitable.

  With the completion of several large-scale municipal projects such as the North Zhonghuan East Interchange Bridge and the overpass at the intersection of North Zhonghuan Street and Taihang Road, especially the North Zhonghuan Bridge, the prosperity of North Zhonghuan Street has surpassed that of previous years. It has become a famous scenic spot in Daxian.

  The police car stopped at the Dong Street Police Station. The Dong Street Police Station was built after the renovation of the Beizhonghuan Street area in 2000. It is located at the exit of Beizhonghuan Street. Within the area of responsibility, there are 10 communities, 2 schools, and 3 financial business outlets; the police station is located on a bustling road section. The land area is 4,000 square meters. There are 49 civilian police officers on duty, including 6 leaders, 2 security guards, 23 community police officers, and 11 criminal investigation police officers. In addition, there are 3 non-commissioned personnel and 65 security auxiliary police officers.
