"Don't leave yet, let's discuss something."
After the chief catcher held a meeting, Sun Zhang left all the east district catchers behind and continued to hold small meetings to discuss the tasks assigned by his superiors.
"Captain Zhao, this is the map of the east of the city. Which area do you want to be in charge of?"
Sun Zhang took out a map, spread it on the table, and asked Zhao Lindao with a smile.
There are three teams of catchers in Dongcheng. Sun Zhang leads one team, and the other two catchers, Shi Dahai and Jin Liqun, each lead one team.
Now that Zhao Lin has joined, the area should be re-divided and a section should be allocated to him.
Zhao Lin knew that he had just arrived and did not have the capital to be picky, so he said in a deep voice: "Captain Sun, you're welcome. Zhao is new here and everything will follow the arrangements."
Sun Zhang was very satisfied when he saw this, and said with a smile: "That's okay. Let's do it this way. The dock has the biggest oil and water, and it will be assigned to Zhao Captou. How about it?" He took a pen and drew a circle on the map.
Zhao Lin took a look at the map and couldn't help but feel suspicious.
When he was a Lifu, he traveled all over the east side of the city and was very familiar with the dock area.
The area designated by Sun Zhang happened to include the dock and a large commercial and residential area. It can be said to be the most prosperous area in the Eastern District.
But why was such a good location allocated to me?
Catcher Shi Dahai, who was standing nearby, shouted: "Captain is biased. I have asked for it several times but he didn't give it to me. As soon as Catcher Zhao comes, I will give it to him."
Another catcher, Jin Liqun, also said: "That's right, the merchants at the wharf collect hundreds of taels of silver every month just from taxes. If you just leak it..." At this point, he was shocked to say something and immediately covered his mouth.
Zhao Lin felt that they were singing a double act, his face was calm and his mind was spinning rapidly.
There are frequent ships coming and going outside the dock, dense people, and chaos compared to other places, which means that murders are prone to occur. He had heard about it when he was a Lifu.
Thinking of the county magistrate and the chief police officer repeatedly urging the investigation and handling of the case, Zhao Lin had roughly guessed the reason why Sun Zhang gave this piece to him.
"This is asking me to take the blame."
Zhao Lin felt inexplicably irritated when he encountered this kind of thing when he first came here.
But can I refuse?
Sun Zhang is his immediate boss. If he disobeys the arrangements when he first arrives, he may be criticized as being disobedient to his boss and unable to do his job.
Even if he is not driven away, the days ahead will definitely be difficult.
"Captain Zhao, how are you doing?"
Sun Zhang asked with a smile on his face.
Zhao Lin thought about it again and again, and finally agreed, "That'll be it. Thank you, the captain, for taking it seriously."
Sun Zhang seemed to be relieved, hugged his shoulders and said affectionately: "It's easy to say, Brother Zhao is young and promising. As long as he is willing to work hard, his future will be limitless."
As he spoke, he suddenly slapped his head and said, "By the way, you are responsible for this jurisdiction. I will transfer the relevant files to you now so that you can get familiar with it as soon as possible."
"Come here, get the file."
The detectives under his command went to the execution room to borrow files and piled them on the table.
"Brother Zhao, watch slowly. If you have any questions later, just come to me."
Sun Zhang said hello and took Shi Dahai, Jin Liqun and a group of arresters out.
Only Zhao Lin, Liang Song and two other agents who had just joined were left in the room.
Zhao Lin had no time to pay attention to the two people, so he directly pushed the files down and took out the volumes at the bottom to check.
Things turned out exactly as he expected: three murders all occurred this year.
Liang Song understood now, "Isn't this tricking us?"
Zhao Lin didn't speak. He opened his ears and listened to the sounds outside.
Sun Zhang and others remained silent all the way. It was not until they walked out of the Yamen that Shi Dahai looked back and whispered: "Captain, can you let the newly arrived Leng Tou Qing investigate the case?"
Sun Zhang curled his lips and said: "Isn't he going to punish the strong and eliminate the evil? Let him do it. Why, why don't you come?"
Shi Dahai quickly shied away: "I definitely can't do it. I'm just worried about what if the case can't be solved when the deadline comes."
Sun Zhang snorted and said, "Three of the five cases in the Eastern District are in his hands. Who do you blame?"
Shi Dahai and Jin Liqun looked at each other. They had one case each for the other two cases, and Sun Zhang had already prepared to take him out.
If Zhao Lin didn't come, they would probably be the ones taking the blame.
Jin Liqun worried: "What if this kid has a backstage?"
Sun Zhang spread his hands and said, "It's good to have a backstage that can handle the matter. If the backstage is not strong, then I will take the blame and get kicked out."
Shi Dahai and Jin Liqun praised in unison: "The captain is wise."
They thought Zhao Lin couldn't hear, but they didn't know that he heard every word.
Zhao Lin was speechless.
On the first day I came here, I was faced with a big pot. If I didn't do well, I would be embarrassed, and I would go back in disgrace. How should I explain it to the master?
However, he is not without support. His super hearing may be useful in handling cases. As long as he solves a case, he can get out of trouble...
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, these cases are difficult to handle."
While Zhao Lin was thinking, someone spoke beside him.
He looked up and saw an old man and a strong man standing in front of the table.
The old man was flipping through the files, and the voice came from his mouth.
These two people are Zhao Lin's new subordinates.
Although Zhao Lin didn't know these two people, he knew their details clearly.
Just now, Mr. Li asked the three captains to name one person from each of them, and put them under his name. After the three captains named them, many people were talking.
Zhao Lin listened briefly and remembered the origins of the three people.
The old man's name is He Qingquan, and he was originally a policeman in Xicheng.
His beard and hair are all white, and his face is lined with wrinkles. He looks at least sixty-five years old, if not seventy.
He has only shed his skin three times and has not even trained his skin. Considering his age, he may not be able to defeat ordinary people.
The strong man was a candidate provided by the Nancheng captain. His real name was Tao Zhuang, and he was known as Tao Erleng.
He was in the bone training realm, and his combat prowess was quite good. However, he used too much force during practice and accidentally swung the hammer on his head, which made him stupid.
That's how Er Leng's nickname came about.
After becoming stupid, Tao Erleng became impulsive and irritable, jealous of evil, and beat the suspects violently at every turn, destroying the scene.
Once he met two gangsters who were teasing women on the street, and beat them to death, causing an uproar.
The former county magistrate originally wanted to deal with Tao Erlen severely, but he was afraid of chilling the hearts of the police officers, so he had to lock him up for half a year and then release him.
But since then, no one has dared to use him, for fear of causing trouble.
The captain of Beicheng District went even further. The person he sent was Tao, the nephew of the county magistrate. He was a real freeloader and had never been in a government office.
Zhao Lin knew that he would not send capable generals, and he understood.
But what is going on with an old man, a fool, and an airhead?
He shook his head secretly and read the files of the three murder cases carefully. Then he raised his head and asked the old man He Qingquan: "Old He, you just said that these three cases are difficult to solve. Why?"
He Qingquan has always been unpopular among the police because of his age. He was a little flattered when Zhao Lin called him an honorific.
"Looking back at the arrest, there were no witnesses or physical evidence at the scene of these three murders. In addition, there are many people at the pier with many eyes, so it is very difficult to find the real culprit."
"But the head catcher is young and promising, so he will be able to catch him easily. The old man is just acting on his feelings, so don't take it seriously."
Zhao Lin thought he had some insight, but after hearing this, he felt a little disappointed. He turned around and saw Tao Er Leng also flipping through the files with a solemn look on his face.
"Tao Zhuang, do you see anything?"
Tao Er was stunned and breathing rapidly, his eyes were red, "Catch the murderer and beat him to death!"
well……
Zhao Lin put his hand on his forehead, stood up and said, "Let's go out and walk around."
