Chapter 765: Also Having a Temper

Fingerprint collection is divided into three categories: patent prints, molded prints, and latent prints. The first two are visible to the naked eye, while the latter is not, requiring some processing to reveal its original appearance for extraction. In common crime scenes, latent prints are the most prevalent.

There are many methods for collecting such prints, such as the powder method and the magnetic powder method. The former uses powders with color contrast to adhere to the print, while the latter uses iron powder, which is then brushed with a magnet to reveal the print. The powder method is the most commonly and widely applied. Additionally, if fingerprints are left on surfaces like paper, cards, leather, or wood—materials that absorb water—they must undergo chemical processing to be revealed and extracted.

There are also many chemical methods, such as iodine fuming, ninhydrin, silver nitrate, and fluorescent reagents.

Doing all this requires materials, as well as equipment to clearly scan the revealed fingerprints into a computer. Combining these two is what constitutes fingerprint extraction. The subsequent comparison involves marking the characteristic points of the fingerprint in the public security system's database, and with the aid of program screening, patiently examining them one by one.

Given the current situation, there are very few people whose fingerprints are not in the database. You need fingerprints for an ID card, for clocking in at work, and internet cafes can even use fingerprints instead of ID cards. In the last two years, facial recognition has also been introduced, directly connected to the public security system.

Just as Wang Shouyi said, the things needed for fingerprint extraction are not expensive, but it is hard to find everything all at once. On the other hand, although it doesn't cost much, one should definitely avoid spending their own money if possible. The station's budget is so tight; never mind thousands or tens of thousands, even eight hundred or a thousand—if there's an opportunity to take advantage, one must take it.

Captain Luo had already made the call. When Wang Yan and Gao Chao arrived, the other party had long since prepared a large box of materials and tools, and they were quite happy about it. Now that there are people in the lower-level police station who can extract and compare fingerprints, their workload will be reduced significantly; after all, that is a jurisdiction of over 120,000 people.

But in reality, nothing has changed; it's just a sense of relief in their hearts. When the Balihe Police Station existed, they were as busy as dogs; when it didn't, they were still as busy as dogs—it was all the same. It's just that there's one less police station coming over to urge them. Although it doesn't have much impact, it is always a bit quieter.

Just like that, driving while loaded with a pile of things, Wang Yan and Gao Chao found a restaurant with good food outside to have a meal, and only then did they return to the station all the way.

"Today, the station has equipped all of you with desks. Look, this one is yours."

Gao Chao smiled happily, helping Wang Yan take the things and move them to a new desk. He said, "Speaking of which, you earned this yourself. Otherwise, if you wanted your own desk and a computer, you would have had to wait at least two months. It's just that with your recent image enhancement, our station's case-solving rate has soared, making it much easier for the station chief and Chief Song to get funding. Once your fingerprint comparison is up and running, our station will truly be able to stand tall. With image enhancement in one hand and fingerprint comparison in the other, at least fifty percent of ordinary cases can be solved."

This is facing four desks, and there is another one opposite Cao Army Supervisor's desk where Yang Shu is sitting. The remaining four, including Wang Yan, are together.

Wang Yan smiled and said, "It's not that easy. Although it's always on TV, people's awareness of protecting crime scenes is still quite poor. I can only say I'll do my best."

"As long as we can solve more cases, that's fine. Like this thief this time, I suspect he likely didn't wear gloves. Think about it, it's been three years, and he hasn't even stolen thirty thousand in total. Even if he wore gloves at the beginning, he would have become lax after three years. You're very likely to solve the case directly this time."

"Let's extract the fingerprints first and see."

"You, you're just too conservative." Gao Chao smiled and pointed at Wang Yan, then waved his hand, "Alright, you tinker with it yourself. If you have anything, come find me."

Having said that, Gao Chao greeted people with a smile and left to go to the crime scene in Dongning Village...

As soon as Gao Chao left, Wang Yan was surrounded. Not only Li Dawei, Yang Shu, and Xia Jie, but also veteran police officers like Chen Xincheng gathered around, and even two prosecutors working in coordination at the station came over.

Li Dawei asked, "I heard there was a homicide in Dongning Village? What's the situation at the scene? Can you tell us about it?"

Gossip is human nature, and police officers are no exception. In today's society, it's not easy to encounter a homicide, let alone a murder and dismemberment case happening in one's own jurisdiction. Everyone wants to ask what's going on and hear the scoop.

From this perspective, the police officers at the Balihe Police Station are no different from the crowds gathered outside the police tape in Dongning Village discussing the matter.

But this also makes Dong Nianfeng's impulsiveness seem even more tragic.

Wang Yan looked at Yang Shu: "Can I talk about it? I remember we have discipline, right?"

Yang Shu nodded and said very rigorously: "The case isn't closed, so we cannot disclose the details, let alone spread them to the public."

"Oh, why so much fuss? The criminal suspect has already been caught. It's something we'll know sooner or later, it doesn't matter. Look, everyone is waiting." Li Dawei didn't care, and neither did the others.

Wang Yan certainly wouldn't care either; the onlookers at the scene had already made the case clear, and by tomorrow, the entire Ping'an City would know about it.

He smiled and said: "That suspect, his ex-wife cheated, he caught them in bed, and he beat the adulterer half to death... Later, he discovered the child wasn't his either... The scene was quite bloody. The heads of that man and woman were chopped off with an axe, the woman's arms were also chopped off, the method was quite crude, minced meat was all over the floor, and blood had sprayed onto the ceiling. Moreover, there were multiple open wounds on the two victims; they must have suffered very painful torture before death..."

"An honest man, who did he provoke?"

"It was the same last year, I was the one who went to the scene, he chopped off someone's hand..."

"I estimate the station chief will hold a meeting for us; we must take such police reports seriously in the future."

Hearing the process, especially the bloody crime scene, people offered Wang Yan some congratulations, and then they dispersed. Where there is a homicide, there must be merit. Combined with the soaring case-solving rate at the station over the past two days, Wang Yan should at least receive a commendation. If he had gone earlier, and the two victims were still alive, and after rescue they survived, and he successfully subdued the criminal suspect, he might even have received a First-Class Merit.

Although they were immoral adulterers and no one looked up to them, to the police, they were 'victims'.

"Did you throw up? I called Jiwei, that kid is sickly, his face is frighteningly pale. When he was talking, he was dry-heaving just thinking about the scene." Seeing that everyone had dispersed, Li Dawei asked curiously.

"Do I look like I threw up? I just ate braised pork bones with Old Gao, it was delicious. Let's go taste it together another day, the owner's skills are not bad."

"Ugh..." Xia Jie covered her mouth in embarrassment and quickly trotted out to get some air.

This kind of thing is scary if you think about it. Even if Wang Yan spoke in a dry manner, a woman with a nimble mind would render it into a vivid picture herself. Pools of blood, minced meat, severed heads—thinking about it is still very scary.

Xia Jie herself has some psychological issues, but she isn't afraid of blood; she is afraid of that feeling of close contact with death, which reminds her of her father who sacrificed himself. She has been fighting it. Later, she actually still didn't want to do household registration work; she still wanted to break through. But her mother didn't give her this opportunity, and she annoyed everyone at the station, which is why she reluctantly went to do household registration work.

This is indeed something that can't be helped, because if you look at everything reasonably, Wang Shouyi, Director Cheng, and others wouldn't let her participate in dangerous work, and there's a mother at home who makes trouble.

Li Dawei didn't feel very well either. He took a tactical sip of water to suppress it and asked curiously: "How about it, Brother Yan, I heard from Director Gao that you can even do fingerprint comparison?"

"I can do simple ones, but not the very difficult ones." Wang Yan nodded with a smile, opened the box he brought back, and took out various materials from it, as well as the bank cards and several doorknobs he brought back from the victim's home.

"I'm truly convinced now. You can do image enhancement and fingerprint comparison. No wonder the station chief smiles at you as soon as he sees you; I'd smile too if I were him. With these two skills, your merits will be endless in the future. Brother Yan, when you have time, can you teach me a trick or two? I want to learn too."

Wang Yan nodded with a smile, picked up a pen and paper, wrote a bunch of words in a flourish, tore it off, and handed it to Li Dawei: "Come find me after you've finished reading all of these."

"Damn, for image enhancement and fingerprint comparison, do I need to read so many books? Eleven books, plus more than ten papers?"

"This is the foundation. After reading these books, as long as you practice specifically for a month or two, you can basically handle the most elementary ones. Technology has no shortcuts; only with a large reserve of relevant knowledge and practice can you apply it. If I just teach you, you won't understand."

"Yang Shu, if you're interested, you can learn." Li Dawei casually slapped the book list onto Yang Shu's desk, "Anyway, you stay busy. Brother Yan, I have a lot of work on hand; the sooner I finish, the sooner I'm done."

"Look at Brother Chen's expression." Wang Yan gestured with his head toward Chen Xincheng.

Li Dawei had a loud voice, and everyone in the station heard their conversation. Chen Xincheng was glaring at Li Dawei with a look of helplessness.

"If you don't want to read and study, then hurry up and work, don't disturb everyone else."

"I'm just trying to make progress..."

Although he muttered like that, Li Dawei still quietly ran to sit diagonally opposite Wang Yan and continued his clerical work.

Scanning the busy people in the station, Wang Yan sat there, opened his computer, and fiddled with various tools.

Regarding his potential to earn merit, most people in the station were quite friendly and offered casual congratulations, appearing happy for him. Only Cao Army Supervisor, who was sitting not far behind him, had a very unpleasant expression.

A young man who had just arrived and hadn't even been there for a week, just happened to bump into a homicide scene by luck—he felt a bit unbalanced in his heart. After all, he wanted to earn merit too; he was actually more reckless than Li Dawei and Zhao Jiwei.

At this time, Xia Jie, who had gone out for some air, also returned. Her workstation was next to Wang Yan's, opposite Li Dawei, and next to Li Dawei was Zhao Jiwei.

Seeing Wang Yan fiddling with bottles and jars, Xia Jie asked curiously: "Can you really do fingerprint comparison?"

"Look at what you're saying, can this be fake? This pile of things was all requested by the station chief from the bureau." Wang Yan smiled at Xia Jie, whose complexion wasn't very good, "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. It's just that thinking about that scene makes me uncomfortable. Alright, alright, stop talking, I'm thinking about it again." Xia Jie waved her hands repeatedly and quickly drank some water.

"Is it because of your father's influence that you have a hurdle in your heart?"

"Nothing of the sort. Work, work, a pile of cases are waiting to be closed."

Watching Xia Jie working with a serious face, Wang Yan shook his head and continued his work.

First, he brushed out all the fingerprints on the bank cards and scanned them into the computer. Then, he scanned the fingerprints on the doorknobs of the house together into the computer. Actually, this matter is still very difficult because fingerprints might have been covered, and separating fingerprints is a highly professional and difficult operation.

But Wang Yan also knows how. He has always learned the key points; separating fingerprints is practical, so he definitely wouldn't leave it out. Whether the separated fingerprints can still be used is another matter. In this area, he only knows how, not mastery. That's why he brought back so many things to scan for fingerprints; with more things, the chances are greater.

This thing is also a meticulous job. Wang Yan's movements were not very proficient either. After tinkering for two hours, he finally scanned all the fingerprints from the bank cards and one doorknob, and officially started the fingerprint comparison.

Fingerprint comparison involves a lot of professional knowledge. No two people in the world have the same fingerprints. This difference, to ordinary people, looks the same; only professionals can see the difference, and these differences are reflected in the subtle whorls and loops.

There are many methods of fingerprint analysis, which had already become a concrete set of methods as early as the nineteenth century, and countries around the world have studied and improved them. What Wang Yan knows is very mixed; anyway, no matter what method, the final goal is to mark the characteristic differences and compare the fingerprints. If they can be matched, there is no problem.

After requesting authorization, Wang Yan enhanced all the fingerprints and pulled them into the fingerprint system to start the comparison.

This thing is easy for those who know how. After marking more than ten characteristic points, the system automatically screened similar fingerprints based on the characteristics. It didn't even take twenty minutes to exclude the fingerprints of the three family members of the brother who had been stolen from. After excluding the three of them, the rest were the difficult ones.

One after another, he found the fingerprints of the worker who changed the door, the previous tenants, as well as the bank manager and teller. Wang Yan had already collected this information when chatting with that brother earlier. The brother's home was robbed, and he was suspicious of everyone, suspecting the original two tenants away, which led to the situation when he went there, catching up with the new tenant who hadn't applied for a residence permit.

Besides these, there were even two who were the brother's relatives, who called late at night to confirm with the brother. After excluding all of these, he focused his efforts on the remaining one strange fingerprint.

Actually, this workload wasn't that large because it had already been determined that this criminal suspect, who had been stealing continuously for three years and had committed more than ten, nearly twenty crimes, was from Dongning Village.

Migrant workers, even if they come to Ping'an City to work for three consecutive years, it is basically impossible for them to live in Dongning Village for three consecutive years; their mobility is too high. For villages like Dongning Village, besides the south facing the sea, Ping'an City has them in the east, west, and north, and there are still several villages.

So this further narrowed the scope to the registered residents of Dongning Village. Then the fingerprint comparison work Wang Yan had to do was reduced a lot; there were only a few thousand people in total, plus the system's rough screening, so the workload wasn't large.

Wang Shouyi, who was doing logistics for the comrades in the station, didn't return, and Zhang Zhijie didn't return either; it is estimated that both of them were affected. The scene was indeed too bloody. When Captain Luo asked Wang Yan about the situation, the people from the criminal police team working inside all ran out and threw up several times.

Homicide is not uncommon; social contradictions are great, and homicides will still happen from time to time. But planned murder and dismemberment is relatively rare. If they hadn't bumped into the scene today and waited for other masses to discover the body parts a few days later, then as soon as the report was received, Chief Song would have taken the lead as the head of the special case team, and this case would have been named the 'June 26th Major Murder and Dismemberment Case'.

If it wasn't solved within a certain period, then Captain Luo would be transferred from his position as the captain of the branch criminal police brigade. Although Chief Song wouldn't necessarily be removed, he would also be in some danger, and the city bureau leaders would personally take the lead to lead the special case team to carry out the case investigation work...

Still the same saying, those who are leaders bear the responsibility, and luck is truly a very important factor for being a leader.

Wang Shouyi is old and can't stand this stimulation. It is normal for him to stay at the scene for a while, help out, and go home early to rest.

As for Zhang Zhijie, this old guy not only has to bear the impact of the cruel crime scene but also has doubts about the community work he has done for nearly twenty years. After all, in the past, Dong Nianfeng chatted with him quite well, and he also showed new hope for a new life, opening a small shop, studying fish every day, occasionally going out to fish or catch seafood—it was quite comfortable.

But there was no sign at all; today he gave him such a big surprise, killing as he pleased. It would be strange if he had the heart to work. He also has to return to a warm family, heal his wounds, and reorganize his mood before setting off again.

So by nearly ten o'clock in the evening, only Gao Chao returned with the four police officers who had gone earlier.

After greeting the people still busy in the station, Gao Chao walked behind Wang Yan, supported the chair, looked at the enlarged fingerprint on the computer, and asked: "How is it? Can it be matched?"

"I just found one from an unknown person, I estimate this is the one left by the thief. I am currently..."

Wang Yan spoke halfway, leaned forward, got closer to the screen, and compared the two fingerprints left and right.

Gao Chao naturally understood what this meant, so he didn't speak, just watched the fingerprint on the computer from behind, quietly watching Wang Yan busy. Although he couldn't understand it, and although his eyes were already a bit blurry, he still insisted on watching.

If there was no mistake, this was the thief, and he had a bit of a sense of participation...

Three or five minutes later, Wang Yan confirmed it meticulously, "It's a match." While speaking, he clicked the mouse, the page jumped, and the citizen's information was displayed on the computer.

"If there are no accidents, it should be this Liu Jialiang, twenty-one years old. However, it is currently impossible to determine whether this Liu Jialiang is indeed the one; we still have to ask that brother again about the relationship their family has with this Liu family, and whether they interact much on a daily basis. Old Gao, should we arrest him?"

"No need to be so conservative. The fingerprints matched, isn't it just him? Then it's eight or nine out of ten. However, this kid can't run away anyway. The station is so busy, where is there time to bother with him? Let him have a good night's sleep, and we'll arrest him tomorrow when we have time. You don't participate this time; you still have to carry out community work in the future. Whether it's you who arrests him or not, that's two different things."

Wang Yan shook his head and smiled: "Can't hide it, it's all the same. I chatted with the brother who reported the case two months ago for more than an hour. Tomorrow, when we arrest the person, we definitely have to notify the victim. Do you believe it? As soon as we notify them that the case is solved, that brother will call me the next moment. The masses in Dongning Village that day will all know that it was me who used fingerprints to catch him, and I'll definitely receive some cold shoulders."

"Hey, as long as you can accept it, that's fine. Parents all shield their children. You are doing mass work, so that's 'understanding is long live'." Gao Chao patted Wang Yan's shoulder vigorously, "Alright, since you're done, go back early."

"I'm really fine, Old Gao. The station is so busy now, as a member of the collective, I also have to help share the work."

"You kid are more suitable to be an official than me." Gao Chao laughed and patted Wang Yan, "You don't even have law enforcement qualifications, what work can you share?"

"Hey, Director Gao, that's not right." Liu Vanguard Commander, not far away, spoke up. He was the police officer who took Wang Yan out on duty last night, in his forties, also with a sleepy look, an ordinary middle-aged man.

He said: "This kid is a real expert at mediating marital conflicts and neighborhood disputes. Why else would our Station Chief Wang have such sharp eyes, knowing this kid is good at mass work? If this kid is willing to do it, then let him do it. With the effort of settling family matters for others, you say how much work we could have done? I'm optimistic about you, keep up the good work."

This old guy is saying nice things, laying the groundwork, preparing to pull Wang Yan to do hard labor in the future.

The station is full of old hands. Although they are all not bad, when they catch young people to use, they are not soft at all. On this point, any unit is the same; it's just openly bullying newcomers.

Wang Yan smiled, ignored it, and said to Gao Chao: "Old Gao, you have to help with this, talk to the station chief, let the station chief take the opportunity to exert some effort."

"That's for sure, what should be ours cannot be less. Alright, if you don't want to leave, then don't. Follow along on duty, and learning more about on-site handling is also good. In addition, I also have a few cases on hand that need fingerprint comparison, all from the last half month. At that time, I asked the branch technical personnel to scan for fingerprints, and they probably haven't done it yet. I'll bring them over for you to look at in a while."

"Okay." Wang Yan nodded and agreed.

It's the same principle as image enhancement technology. When he compares all the fingerprints in the station that can be matched, there won't be that much work. And as time goes by, in about five, six, or seven months, similar cases occurring in their Balihe jurisdiction will definitely decrease sharply.

Because seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is human instinct. Small thieves and petty criminals also have a circle. If they are caught severely here, naturally they won't commit crimes here bit by bit. The public security environment of Balihe can be significantly improved.

Moreover, he is also doing community work at the same time, going out to visit during the day. In this way, after five, six, or seven months, he can basically walk through the jurisdiction of over 120,000 people. With his observation and judgment, at least half of the bad people among the masses can be ferreted out. That is a particularly big change for public security.

"Everyone listen up, I estimate that when our station chief comes tomorrow, he will also tell you, so I'll say it first. Ignore the cases on hand that need fingerprint comparison for now, and see how Wang Yan's speed is first. But for future current cases that need fingerprint comparison, no need to find the branch bureau again; let Wang Yan do it first, and if he can't do it, then find the branch bureau."

Wang Yan also stood up: "I'll say a word too. Comrades in our station had better learn how to extract fingerprints. Generally, simple fingerprints don't have much technical content, and most of the cases we face are of this kind that don't require any technology. Everyone, scan them and then bring them to me for comparison; this way it will be easier for everyone.

In a while, I'll make a demonstration file and send it to our station's group. Everyone, take a look when you have time. It's better to collect them as soon as possible. Let's get the ugly words out first: don't think about saving yourself trouble and call me to the scene to extract fingerprints every time. Once, twice, three times is fine; learning is a process, but finding me every time is unreasonable. I am a young person, and it is right to do more work to learn and progress, but I also know good from bad, and I also have a bit of a temper.

The technical personnel at the branch bureau, that is the work they should do; they are there to provide us with technical support. But I am not; everyone must be clear about this point. Otherwise, if young people don't know the severity, and I don't care about the collective honor when holding a big meeting and just start scolding people, that wouldn't be good. I'll be punished, everyone will lose face, and it will affect unity.

So I hope everyone can consider the feelings of us young people, don't fool us into doing dirty work without acknowledging our efforts, don't treat us like fools, and don't put big labels on us; that would be unreasonable."

Image enhancement is easy to handle. For ordinary images, he only needs three to five minutes to finish the battle and finish the work. For more difficult ones, that's not a matter of his technology, but a matter of computer configuration. Ten minutes, twenty minutes, it's all possible.

But fingerprint extraction is different. No matter how low the technical requirements are, it's still the powder method of sprinkling powder and brushing it with a small brush, which really takes a while to brush. Because often when there is a requirement to scan fingerprints at the scene, it's impossible to be just one fingerprint, but a whole area. How long would he have to crouch and bend over to do that himself?

According to the conduct of these old hands, he can be sure that they won't learn fingerprint extraction at all. Compared to working hard there himself, making a phone call and righteously kidnapping someone is much easier.

So he won't give these people a chance to show off their seniority, and he won't care about any so-called human relationships. In an unequal situation, so-called human relationships are mostly just a coat worn for being oppressed by others, and also an excuse for comfort. Compared to this, this situation is somewhat different from those who act shamelessly to take advantage of others, but there is no big difference; they have certain commonalities.

He has been harmonious for several days, his ability has been shown, and his temper must also be shown. Of course, this is based on his own conditions.

Normally, it would be to use the excuse of being busy and having no time when receiving calls from others. After doing this once, twice, three times, everyone would know his refusal. Or to say soft words while hardening, expressing his dissatisfaction from the side.

But after all, he is not a young person who has just graduated and started working, and he is not a fool who gets hot-blooded after being fooled by a few words. He doesn't care at all about what these people think, just rushing up directly, whatever happens, happens.

And to be honest, these people are just unhappy for a moment, and in a while, they are smiling again, and everyone is harmonious.

Li Dawei, Yang Shu, and Xia Jie were all stunned. Is he speaking so directly? And even opening a map cannon? Isn't he usually very harmonious? Oh, right, he is a rich man, so he is willful...

Gao Chao was also stunned for a moment. Looking at the scene that suddenly became awkward, he wittily activated his leadership skills: "Look at what you're saying, are we old comrades in our station specifically bullying you young people? However, the problem you mentioned really needs to be taken seriously. It's our problem not to use technology, but we can't just order you around alone. Extracting fingerprints is not an easy job, and it's true that you can't handle it all by yourself.

How about this, make the demonstration file you mentioned first, and I'll talk to our station chief tomorrow. Learning an extra skill is also good; it can better solve problems for the people. But your attitude is problematic, I have to criticize you."

"Accepting criticism." Wang Yan stood at attention, then smiled at the police officers and auxiliary police officers present, and said, "I really said the wrong thing, didn't consider it comprehensively, and I apologize to everyone. I'm sorry, brothers, please don't hold it against me."

Although he is always majestic and upright, it doesn't hinder him from being disgusting. If it really comes to being disgusting, he is also very capable. And he was the one who started the group, so these people didn't even have a chance to say anything else.

Chen Xincheng is a good person, and he spoke up to resolve the awkwardness at the moment: "It's no big deal. Although what you said was a bit direct, the words were rough but the logic was sound; the matter is just like that. You hurry up and make that demonstration, and after you encounter a scene in the future, you go over and teach us a few times, and our station will be able to compare fingerprints ourselves in the future. The case-solving speed can be much faster. When it comes to evaluating excellence and advanced status, our station will also be in the front, and everyone will benefit."

Once he said this, others also spoke up, all waving their hands with smiles, saying it was no big deal. They also said that it's a good thing for young people to have a temper, to say whatever they have to say, and they all like it.

They also remembered at this time that this kid is still a rich man. The 'low-key' commuter car that cost more than 300,000 in total is parked in the backyard, and Li Dawei also showed them photos of the S8 worth more than two million parked in the underground garage gathering dust. He is not working as a police officer to make a living.

Either he is naively wanting to serve the people, or he is aiming to climb up, so they had better not ask for trouble. They all know that Wang Yan is not just talking; if he gets anxious, he really dares to scold them. He doesn't care, and he is not afraid of punishment, let alone losing his job. And his ability is indeed strong, and his luck is not bad. If it weren't for their seniority, it wouldn't necessarily be who orders whom.

Only Cao Army Supervisor had a look of disapproval, but he didn't say anything...

As if nothing had happened, Gao Chao left yawning, and everyone was busy with their own things, still lively. Li Dawei pulled Wang Yan out to smoke, and Yang Shu and Xia Jie also followed.

"Brother Yan, from now on you are my own brother." Li Dawei cupped his hands and bowed, diligently taking out a lighter from his pocket to light a cigarette for Wang Yan.

Xia Jie hesitated: "I don't think this is good, right? You were so direct, how will everyone get along in the future? And our station chief pays the most attention to collective honor and collective unity. When he comes tomorrow morning, he will definitely scold you."

"I actually think Wang Yan did the right thing. The situation he mentioned will definitely happen. Instead of having conflicts then, it's better to state the conflicts first, so as not to suffer in the future."

Wang Yan nodded with a smile: "That's exactly what I thought. However, Xia Jie is also right; it was indeed too direct. But I don't have the patience to deal with it, so I just said it directly to save trouble. Anyway, I never thought about making progress; being a small police officer is quite good, whatever happens, happens."

"Big brother, you haven't thought about making progress?" Li Dawei widened his small eyes, feeling the unfairness of fate, "Everyone in the station is saying that you will definitely get a commendation this time. How many days have we been here? All in all, it's only four days. You caught a fugitive with a ten-thousand-yuan reward, caught two car thieves, discovered a drug user, and pulled out a line.

Relying on image enhancement technology, you made our station work overtime for at least ten days, and the case-solving rate increased by a large margin. Today you bumped into a homicide scene and caught the murderer red-handed. Just now you compared fingerprints and solved a series of residential burglary cases that hadn't been solved for three years. And you call this not making progress? If I had your luck and your solid family background, I would walk sideways."

"That's because Wang Yan has the ability, okay? Even if the fugitive was in front of you, could you recognize him?" Yang Shu is still very objective. Although he also felt hit hard, he is not a person who envies, is jealous, or hates; he is a person who wants to do things.

"Exactly, exactly." Xia Jie helped out.

Li Dawei sneered: "I wouldn't dare say before, but ever since he caught the fugitive, I have been looking at the fugitive list in our province these past few days. As long as he appears in front of me, with my sharp eyes, I will definitely let him know what it means to have the net of justice spread wide, but letting nothing slip through. If he dares to resist, I'll use my eighteen dragon hands, hehehe..."

Xia Jie ruthlessly complained: "Forget it, with those small eyes of yours, you call them sharp eyes?"

After a moment of frolicking, the four returned to the building to continue working.

In the time it took to smoke a cigarette, Gao Chao had already requested the fingerprints of the several cases on hand. However, Wang Yan didn't start the comparison directly, but called the family who had visited earlier and whose child had just taken the college entrance examination, having promised to help them deliberate on the application matters in the evening.

He wasn't afraid of disturbing others either; the station was already chaotic and noisy, not quiet at all. After asking if it was convenient, he put on his headset and made a voice call.

Unsurprisingly, they started by asking about the inside story of Dong Nianfeng's family, which Wang Yan blocked with discipline, and then he started chatting with their eighteen-year-old son.

This kid did quite well in the exam, scoring over 530 in science, which is enough. Wang Yan chatted with him about his hobbies, what he wanted to study, his plans for the future, and so on.

It was in this process that Wang Yan was typing away, pulling up a list of schools that this score could get into, majors that could be applied for, etc. He patiently helped the kid analyze it item by item, and finally selected a few majors in a few schools. Whether he listens or not, he doesn't know, but anyway, after chatting for more than an hour and hanging up the phone, the other side was quite enthusiastic with a series of thanks, and even asked him to come over for a meal when they hold a celebration banquet in a while.

And after he hung up the phone, what he harvested were the surprised gazes of the old police officers in the station.

Liu Vanguard Commander asked: "Wang Yan, you can even guide this?"

"Look at what you're saying, that person is just a college graduate who just graduated, can't he know?"

Someone retorted, and then said, "I've been listening for a long time, you spoke very clearly. If it's convenient, can you take a look for my sister's child? Isn't these two days the time to fill in the application? If you ask others to help look, they ask for more than ten thousand as soon as they open their mouths. They are all small families, where would they have so much money? But if they don't spend it, they are afraid of wasting the score. My niece did quite well, scoring nearly six hundred."

Wang Yan looked at the time and nodded with a smile: "You call and ask, see who hasn't slept, and if it's convenient, I'll talk to her. But let's get the words out first: I'm just giving a suggestion. Whether she listens or not, and what development happens after listening, I don't guarantee."

"Then you can rest assured, it definitely won't be your fault. I'll call and ask now, I estimate they haven't slept yet; these two days their family has been worried about this matter." This person also knew that Wang Yan's time is precious now, and it's free help, so he immediately took out his mobile phone and made the call.

Even if they don't understand, it's still better than them understanding. And since Wang Yan dares to guide the masses on application, given this kid's temperament, he must be very confident, otherwise he wouldn't be looking for trouble for himself.

Very quickly, Wang Yan was on the phone with the daughter of this old police officer's sister again. The other side was also a family sitting in a row, communicating seriously with Wang Yan. It was the same routine; basically, they didn't trust him at the beginning, but after chatting for a few minutes, they became warm.

After chatting about this, no one in the station looked for him anymore. In fact, there were basically no people left in the station at this time; many couldn't hold on and left. It's not one or two days, but continuous every day at this time, and during the day they have to endlessly deal with all kinds of strange police situations, which is not easy to bear.

Li Dawei and others were still there, but they were also about to be unable to hold on. Playing with mobile phones late without sleeping has spirit, but if it's working, few people have such great enthusiasm, especially since they are doing clerical work that sends people in, which is very boring. The only fun is to ask the prosecutor a question: how many years will this person be sentenced...

"What time do you plan to leave?" Xia Jie asked.

"Are you going to my place?"

"Yeah, it's so late, I can't go home either. The dormitory is not very comfortable to live in, let's go to your place first. Those two are still clamoring that sleeping on the big bed at your place is comfortable."

"So you guys were waiting for me, then let's go."

"It doesn't matter to us, anyway, there is so much work, the more we do, the sooner it ends. Besides, don't you still have a fingerprint scanning demonstration file to make?"

"It's not too late to do it tomorrow." Wang Yan smiled, directly turned off the computer and stood up, stretching a big lazy stretch with a crackle in Li Dawei's envious eyes, "Pack up and go back. I estimate Jiwei is still scared at home. Should we have a hot pot and drink some small wine to help sleep?"

"Forget it, it's quite tiring, let's talk about drinking another day. However, I agree to eat something, I'm really a bit hungry. And Jiwei definitely hasn't eaten either; he shouldn't have the heart to eat." Li Dawei rubbed his stomach.

"Okay, then let's drive and see, buy some fried rice or something on the roadside and eat a simple bite. Xia Jie, do you want to take clothes or something?"

Xia Jie shook her head: "Nothing. It's so busy, who has the heart to be particular about so much? Didn't you say there are many toiletries at your place? Those are enough."

"Not particular about trifles, good woman."

Yang Shu expressed approval: "Indeed, I haven't seen Xia Jie wear makeup since coming here for so many days."

"I am naturally beautiful." Xia Jie joked, turned around and left, "Hurry up, I'm dying of sleepiness, I just want to take a shower now and have a good sleep."

The group left the police station laughing and talking, bought fried rice and fried skewers on the roadside, and bought some beer to go back.

Zhao Jiwei really didn't sleep, and even didn't eat. His face was pale, he was lying on the bed with the lights on, and he really had psychological shadows. Everyone comforted him, he barely ate some food, and drank a few cans of beer with a gulp. Perhaps because there were people in the room, plus the effect of alcohol, Zhao Jiwei finally fell asleep.

Li Dawei and others also sighed, dragging their tired bodies, took a shower and went to sleep.

Wang Yan helped Xia Jie settle down and didn't care anymore, and also returned to his room to sleep. It was another fulfilling day...
