Just as Ma Hongwen was thinking about what to say, Director Liu turned around and said, "Old Ma, don't have any worries and don't think too much. I know there are a lot of messy gossips saying that this case will have an impact on Liu's career." Promotion has a certain impact. Do I have no idea whether it has any impact? To be honest, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. If we can go further, I will definitely be happy. But in order to make progress, we must I, Mr. Liu, gave blind instructions, ignored the law and facts, only wanted to close the case without seeking the truth, and even created unjust, false and wrong cases. I, Mr. Liu, can't do it. In fact, Lao Zhang's question is not mine..."
Having said this, Bureau Liu stretched out his index finger and pointed at the top of his head: "A few days ago, the Standing Committee meeting decided to apply for the establishment of a national civilized city. For this work, the city has done a lot of preliminary preparations, and the application instructions and various materials have been completed. I was ready. I said it was going to the Standing Committee meeting to study and decide, but in fact it was just a formality, you know. But it turned out that only one night after the meeting, this thing happened. This case has been widely circulated on the Internet, and it will not be closed in a day. , the application for creation will have to be pushed back one day. Do you know now who is asking this question? "
To apply for the establishment of a national civilized city, the whole city must be mobilized. Ma Hongwen must also know about this. But as the captain of the criminal police detachment, he handles criminal cases. He always thinks that this superficial declaration and creation work has little to do with the actual business work of the criminal police detachment, so he pays less attention to it. The daily work in this area is usually handled by the deputy leader in charge, and he rarely interferes.
Director Liu said this, and Ma Hongwen came to his senses: Within 12 months before the application for establishment, no major criminal cases with national impact occurred, which is one of the prerequisites for the establishment of a national civilized city.
At present, "Baitu Wengan" is relatively controllable on the Internet, but whether it counts as a "major criminal case with national impact", Ma Hongwen is not sure, and probably the people above are not sure either. But what Ma Hongwen is sure of is that, as Director Liu said, if this case is not closed, the application for establishment will have to be postponed.
But when Director Liu said this, was he acting in a public spirit, or was he "pretending to serve the public good for personal gain"? Ma Hongwen's little eyes turned again and again. Fortunately, his eyes were so small that others couldn't see it unless they were paying attention.
Ma Hongwen is still "judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart." Zhang Xiaohe said: "I originally told Director Liu that if it were someone else, it would take at least a year to solve the case, but with Lao Ma in charge, it would take at most half a year. . Director Liu thinks that half a year is too early, and he is worried about unjust, false, and erroneous cases, so he wants to ask you face to face."
Ma Hongwen blinked twice, but said: "At present, the complexity of this case exceeds all of our imaginations. Previously, it was thought that the biggest doubt and difficulty in the 'White Earth Document' was the identity of the deceased. Now, looking at it, the suspect The motive for committing the crime is the biggest doubt and difficulty. In addition, the decoration design of Room 1304 in Baituwen Community makes us suspect that there may be a hidden case under this case. And at present, the clues and information we have about this case are really Too few, not to mention the motive for committing the crime, even Li Haidong does not know whether he is Wang An or Wang Kang. In this case, how to close the case, how to make a closing statement, and how to issue a notice to 'set the record straight'?"
"No one said that you should close the case now." Chang Xiaohe said.
"The reason for visiting the schools attended by the Wang brothers is, on the one hand, because there are no other clues that can be followed, and on the other hand, we want to see if we can get some clues through this method to determine whether Li Haidong is the Wang brother. Which one of them will try to find the motive for committing the crime? This is the current investigation idea of Li Zhudao." Ma Hongwen looked left and right, obviously doing Tai Chi.
"That's one year." Bureau Liu said with a smile. "Although the application for establishment is an important political task and has gathered the efforts of millions of cadres and people across the city, it is not as important as human lives. Lao Ma, you can check it out in peace. I will handle the case and those above."
"It won't take a year, at most half a year." Zhang Xiaohe said while looking out the window.
Changing the topic, he added: "But one year is more secure. This case is not simple at first glance. As long as you do your duty with all your heart, if anything goes wrong, it will not be due to human factors..."
Director Liu nodded and said: "There is no difference between half a year and one year. It is better to be more cautious, so let's take one year. I will reply to them right away. Lao Ma, I won't delay your handling of the case, so I'll leave now."
"Three months, I only need three months at most." Ma Hongwen gritted his teeth and said.
"Okay! It's a deal!" Bureau Liu laughed, and then left.
be cheated!
The two men were playing a trick to get Ma Hongwen to take the initiative to solve the case within a time limit.
Ma Hongwen stood at the door of the office, looking at Bureau Liu and Zhang Xiaohe as if they couldn't wait to leave. He took a heavy drag on his cigarette and finally came to his senses. However, it is difficult to recover from overflowing water.
Director Liu's office.
Bureau Liu said with a smile: "Lao Ma is good at everything, but he is too narrow-minded. I told him frankly that this was the intention of the superiors, and it was out of the need to declare the founding work, so he suspected that I was doing it for personal gain, and twisted it. He is coy and refuses to express his position. Let him take the initiative to promise a deadline. By then, three months have passed and the case has not been solved. He is the one who took the initiative to promise, not us. If we are to investigate, he is also the main responsibility. He must be sure now I think so again, suspecting that we are shirking our responsibilities and setting a trap for him."
Zhang Xiaohe said with a wry smile: "I know Lao Ma very well. I can't blame him for being too narrow-minded. He has been an occupational disease in criminal investigation for decades. In his eyes, everyone looks like a bad person. He has a stubborn temper. This kind of thing If anyone gives him a death order without asking any questions, he will most likely say that it is a layman's guidance and an expert's blind direction. Criminal investigation is not a dinner party, so how can he set a date? He treats people as humans and as animals. If pressed, he will give up the burden. He also wants to save face and is a leverage man. The more he says he can't do it, the more he wants to prove that he can do it; the more he gives The more he creates loose conditions, the more he will set high standards for himself; the more he says that this case will not be solved within a year and a half, the more he will pat his chest and promise not to use it for half a year."
Director Liu smiled and said: "The superiors asked me if one month was enough. I didn't answer at the time, mainly because I didn't know enough about the case. Now it seems that I have to give them an explanation. I, Liu In someone’s name, promise them to solve the case within three months.”
After a moment of pause, Director Liu asked again: "Li Zhudao from the field team, is he the one who lost his wife two years ago?"
Zhang Xiaohe nodded and said, "That guy is very good at handling cases, but his wife's case just didn't turn the entire Yancheng upside down..."
Zhang Xiaohe didn't know how to describe it for a moment, and shook his head, seeming to lament the uncertainty of fate, and also seemed to be wondering about the case at that time, or what went wrong in the handling of the case.
When Ma Hongwen conveyed the news of the three-month deadline to solve the case to several team leaders, to his surprise, no one raised any objections.
This made Captain Ma uneasy and unsure of what these subordinates were thinking.
"You can understand your emotions, raise your ideas, and express your complaints." Ma Hongwen's small eyes glanced at Li Zhudao, Xiang Juan, and Duan Ming in the office, and said: "You all look like you are mourning for your heir. What do you mean by not saying anything?"
"Lao Ma, I just want to ask you one thing. Is it your initiative to solve the case within three months?" Xiang Juan and Ma Hongwen were classmates in the police academy, so she called him "Lao Ma" and her tone was much more casual. .
Ma Hongwen looked embarrassed, but said nothing.
When everyone saw him like this, they all understood.
"Sister Xiang, don't say that, it's not easy to be a virgin." Li Zhudao seemed to want to save Captain Ma from the siege.
"It's not easy for him. Lao Ma, I'm not talking about you. In ordinary small cases, you talk a lot and take the initiative to solve the case within a time limit. The few of us who are big can break one day into two days. There will always be a result in the end. But in this case, we don't even know the motive of the crime or whether the suspect is Wang An or Wang Kang. How dare you brag and give yourself a deadline to solve the case and give you three months? Where are you? Do you have the confidence and courage?" Xiang Juan persisted.
"I...fell into Zhang Xiaohe's trap," Ma Zhi said.
"Look, Sister Xiang, I said it's not easy for us as Virgos." Li Zhudao said, "It's not easy to be fooled once, it's hard to be fooled twice, and it's even harder to be fooled often, and it's even harder to be fooled by the same person. , it is simply difficult to reach the sky. I, a Virgo, have been fooled by only one person for ten years, is it easy for him? "
Ma Hongwen didn't want to look at the two of them, but turned to Duan Ming and said, "Xiao Duan, your greatest advantage is that you only obey orders, immerse yourself in work, and never say any weird words. This is very good, you must keep it. .”
Duan Ming adjusted his glasses and said, "It's not that I don't want to talk, it's just that I don't know how to talk..."
"Get out, get out. There's no change for three months. Get out!" Lao Ma didn't like Duan Ming anymore, so he simply closed his eyes and issued an eviction order.
Xiang Juan opened the door and said, "You want us to talk, but it's of no use. You're not doing what you're supposed to do, and you don't want to hear it, so why bother."
Li Zhudao followed closely behind, muttering as he walked out: "It's harder to be fooled than to reach the sky."
Duan Ming walked at the end with a smile on his face and closed the door.
Xiang Juan met Xiao Wu in front of the washbasin outside the bathroom, who was holding water from the faucet to apply on his face. High-intensity work day and night has made everyone exhausted.
Xiang Juan touched Xiao Wu's lower back and praised her: "With this small waist, I don't know who will benefit from it in the future."
