Chapter 778: Parting on Good Terms

"What's the situation with the case you mentioned?"

Xia Jie hadn't read the case file, so on the way back to the station, she asked curiously about the details.

"It was July 13th, eight years ago. That year, the water level in Balihe was shallow, and someone fishing found a corpse in the river. After investigation, it was confirmed that the person was Zhao Zhendong, who had reported missing at our station two years earlier. His parents had long since died, his wife had long since divorced, and he had no children. The person who reported the case at that time was his elder brother, Zhao Zhenye, who lived next door."

"Zhao Zhendong's corpse underwent a forensic autopsy, confirming that he had suffered great torture before death, encountering many fist and foot strikes, blunt object strikes, and knife wounds. But the cause of death wasn't being beaten to death, but being tied to a large stone and drowned alive in the river. At that time, after more than a month of investigation, there was no evidence or clues, and it was eventually left unsettled."

"So you all suspect Zhao Zhangyi, but have no evidence?"

"Hmm, this old guy Zhao Zhangyi is quite not a good thing. When he was young, he flirted with widows in the village and even had situations where he coveted other people's wives. He has a criminal record. And back then, he also broke people's legs in the village and drove people out of the village; he was quite domineering and ruthless. Later, when he became successful and had money, he didn't harm people in the village anymore and started looking for young girls outside. There are quite a few things in this regard."

Xia Jie frowned: "Such a person is just left to go unpunished?"

"Having a sense of justice is a good thing, but don't be so naive." Wang Yan shook his head and smiled, "If you had truly mastered the evidence, do you think he wouldn't be handled? The key is that there is no evidence, and he has someone above him. According to this situation, it is likely that he has obtained the real power of the city-level leadership. Our Bureau Chief Song is not enough to look at in front of others. Even if there is evidence, he has to be timid. This is not ordinary illegal crime."

"Since this is the case, doesn't it mean that even if clues are found, it's not certain that this Zhao Zhangyi can be caught?"

"If there were clues and evidence were found, I would dare to lock that old guy up now. As for having someone above, I'm not afraid."

"So the clue now is Zhao Zhendong's ex-wife?"

Wang Yan still didn't dampen her enthusiasm, thought for a while and said: "If you are interested, you can look at the case file when you go back. Zhao Zhendong's wife was beautiful; this is a piece of news worthy of attention. The personnel who participated in the case at that time couldn't have failed to consider it."

"This woman is named Xu Lirong. She settled in Jinan, married another man, and gave birth to a son. That man is said to have died of illness, leaving her a clothing factory, which she has been running until now. Her son should be a junior in college now, right?"

Xia Jie frowned and pondered, brainstorming: "Since the investigators at that time also suspected that there might be Zhao Zhangyi's involvement, didn't they do DNA for that child and Zhao Zhangyi?"

"No blood relationship, and no blood relationship with Zhao Zhendong either." Wang Yan smiled, "But your thinking ability is still quite good. Keep it up. Alright, you go back and look at the case file, and you'll know everything."

Still the same sentence: so many people were busy with this one case. What could be thought of, and what couldn't be thought of, must have been thought of more than once, and there were corresponding investigation actions. Including the biological information of others that might exist on Zhao Zhendong's body, the forensic doctor didn't scan it just once. But if there was a discovery, this case should have been broken.

The difficulty of this case is that there is no evidence, no clues, only an uncertain direction, which is highly suspecting Zhao Zhangyi. But after investigating a big circle, no interest relationship was found, and no reason for Zhao Zhangyi to take action was found, but Zhao Zhangyi is still suspected.

Just like what he had just said to Zhao Xianming, as long as there is something unclear in Dongning Village, counting it on Zhao Zhangyi's head is definitely no problem...

Because they didn't run very far to eat, when Wang Yan drove Xia Jie back to the station, it was only seven o'clock, more than half an hour earlier than before.

"Back." Wang Shouyi, who had a big cigarette addiction and was smoking by the flower bed in the backyard, smiled and pointed at the two who got off the car and walked over with the hand holding the cigarette, "You two are going to make a merit again this time."

Xia Jie looked at Wang Yan and asked: "Is it the one smoking the electronic cigarette caught this afternoon?"

"It must be them." Wang Shouyi said, "That kid confessed a string, saying the stuff was bought at an electronic cigarette counter in a shopping mall on Wu'ai Street in our jurisdiction. Gao Chao went directly over and brought the person back. That boss said someone pushed him to stock up, gave him one to smoke, and then he stocked up and sold it out at the counter."

"That pushing person has now been mastered. We'll go catch people in a while, interrogate them overnight, and strive to take down this factory before tomorrow. The situation is very bad; that little boss has been selling for less than half a year, and the one who has been docking with him has always been that one person. Think about how rampant this must be? I have already reported it to Bureau Chief Song, and Bureau Chief Song gave clear instructions that it must be severely cracked down on. After the situation is investigated clearly, the Anti-Drug Brigade will lead this action, and we will assist from the side."

"After the raw material source and the downstream are all clarified, Xia Jie will definitely be commended once. As for you kid, it depends on how big this case is. Counting the other things you did afterward, if it doesn't reach a third-class merit, then you have to accumulate merits."

Rewards have clear rules and regulations. For the same deed of a collective or individual, only one reward can be given. In principle, the same collective or individual cannot be repeatedly given rewards of the same level or lower within a year.

Wang Yan hasn't been in the police force for a month yet, and he hasn't even passed his internship period. Being able to reduce nine months is already the limit; light-speed regularization is unrealistic. The on-site law enforcement ability of a one-year regular police officer is not reassuring, and his three-month one is definitely even less reassuring. Higher-level leaders, not Wang Shouyi, the direct leader, only know the situation in others' mouths and don't know Wang Yan's true ability, and Wang Yan can't reach the higher-level leaders.

Commendations may be a pile every year, but third-class merits are relatively scarce. This is also the highest reward that the municipal bureau can decide. Second-class merits must be approved by the provincial department, and first-class merits must be reported to the ministry for approval.

"These are all small things; cracking down on illegal crimes and serving the people." Wang Yan waved his hand indifferently and smiled, "And I clearly remember that the Reward Regulations for People's Police of Public Security Organs clearly state that 'closely contacting the masses and enthusiastically serving the masses' is also an important one. In addition, I should also occupy 'preventing and stopping crimes' and 'enforcing the law impartially and being clean and honest'."

"After I pass the judicial examination this year and get an A certificate, I can also occupy a 'law enforcement standardization construction'. If I visit our jurisdiction once, I will summarize my work experience, write a few papers, use the 'Balihe Method' we talked about before, and send it to journals like People's Public Security and Public Security Research. Especially write an article on taking root at the grassroots and going deep into the masses, and submit it to Qiushi."

"If Qiushi publishes my article, Station Chief, it might be that I can become a hero next year. By then, you will be promoted to positive division level, wearing a white shirt..."

At first, Wang Shouyi was nodding with a gratified smile, but hearing Wang Yan say more and more unreliable things, he glared with dog-like eyes, full of disgust, and waved his hand impatiently.

"Shut up. I found that Li Dawei is not as good as your mouth. You make it sound like it's so easy to be a police officer. Disappear quickly; I don't want to see you stinky kid."

"Look, Xia Jie, what is called saying one thing and meaning another?"

Wang Yan raised his eyebrows at Xia Jie, and without waiting for Wang Shouyi to say anything, he turned around and left. Xia Jie wanted to say something to Wang Shouyi, but seeing Wang Shouyi waving his hand, she followed Wang Yan and left.

She wanted to say that there was no need to commend her, but she thought of Zhao Jiwei, who had reduced his internship period by three months just because he followed Wang Yan to bump into a murder scene. Everyone in the station said that if Zhao Jiwei had held on at that time and reported it with Wang Yan, he might have been commended too. Even if not commended, he would have had to reduce his internship time by nine months, just like Wang Yan.

Watching Wang Yan swaying with the eight-piece kit, Wang Shouyi shook his head with a smile. This kid is amazing, but he really can't be managed...

Entering the building, it was still a busy scene. Li Dawei, Yang Tree, and Zhao Jiwei were all not out on duty, writing the materials that would never be finished.

Yang Tree was not out on duty, and Cao Army Supervisor was also there, nodding to Wang Yan. Since the last scolding, Cao Army Supervisor didn't say he had become a different person, but he had changed. Wang Yan heard Yang Tree say that when enforcing the law on the spot, his attitude was much better. And if he wasn't on duty or had no action, he would leave on time at nine o'clock every day, taking advantage of the time before the children were asleep to go home to accompany his wife and children.

It could be considered a good thing. Wang Yan also raised his head to Cao Army Supervisor with a smile, as if it wasn't him who had scared people to tears before.

He didn't believe that people's changes were so fast, but if Cao Army Supervisor were given eight guts, he would absolutely not think about revenge in the dark. Because setting aside his own ability, besides his identity as a police officer, he was also a rich man. He didn't respect Wang Yan, but he had to respect the energy that those money could trigger.

Cao Army Supervisor was just pretending, and he had to pretend to be changed. Otherwise, if there was no change at all, still being narrow-minded, grabbing merits, and pushing responsibilities, whenever he made Wang Yan feel troublesome, Cao Army Supervisor would be finished. His wish would be realized, and his end would not be very good.

Wang Yan even carefully recalled which mission target was the most miserable. Thinking and thinking, he thought of the elevator god Ding Qing, who was an ignorant and unreasonable person, a pure negative example.

"Yo, Brother Yan, Xia Jie, back? I've heard that you caught two groups of people today, and one group was drug-related, and there was a manufacturing factory. You've made a merit again." Li Dawei's envy was written on his face, "Xia Jie too, made a merit on the first day out. What kind of luck do you have?"

Without Wang Yan speaking, Xia Jie opened her mouth: "Let me tell you, Li Dawei, you're just stubborn. I had the same idea as you before, but today I saw it with my own eyes. That person smoked an electronic cigarette, Wang Yan went over and sniffed it, and directly determined that the person's electronic cigarette had a problem. Although when we first entered, that person's performance was indeed a bit panicked, but if he didn't admit it and changed the topic, who would think in other directions?"

"That's because I didn't bump into it; otherwise, with my keen observation, I would definitely have discovered it." Li Dawei continued to be stubborn. He had been subdued in force, but he still refused to admit defeat. Admitting that others are excellent is not difficult, but admitting that people around you are excellent is very difficult, because it really hurts yourself too much.

However, Li Dawei was just shouting that he was unconvinced, the kind who had the heart to surpass, rather than someone hiding dark thoughts and wanting to make trouble for Wang Yan. This point was still not bad; it was just that his mouth was a bit owed.

"Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future. Didn't we agree? After Xia Jie finishes visiting Xincheng Aofu with me, you follow me, and then you can show how keen your observation is."

Wang Yan chuckled. Envy makes people separate. He could understand. He looked at Zhao Jiwei, who looked like he had missed a merit, and asked, "Jiwei wasn't following Station Chief Cheng to go out on duty? How does it feel?"

Zhao Jiwei sighed: "Not so good. It's all trivial matters, no different from our community visits. And the situation when we go out on duty is that the conflict has already intensified. The scolding was so ugly, and there were fights, faces were scratched. The only thing that counts as a case is catching a small massage parlor, catching a few women selling sex, and the boss who opened the shop. Those women were all in their forties, their faces were thickly painted, and they didn't look good. It was more than a hundred yuan once, and we also caught a sixty-year-old grandpa..."

Speaking of age, speaking of price, Zhao Jiwei's face was a bit helpless...

What climbs with social development is not just ordinary commodity prices; what time ravages is every different person. What cannot be ravaged is that young ambition that wants to see legs.

Wang Yan shook his head and smiled: "Organize your mentality well. According to what you think, even if you are allowed to be a criminal police officer, it is still very different, and there is still a big gap."

Zhao Jiwei wanted to be a public security police officer, but after becoming one, he found it was just like that, not as good as strolling around with Wang Yan for door-to-door visits. His enthusiasm was consumed all at once. He was still fantasizing about being a divine detective and killing all sides. Or like in Hong Kong movies, majestically going out to crack down on crimes, but he just didn't think about dealing with dog-shit things all day long.

Zhao Jiwei let out a long breath: "If I could follow you, that would be great, and I could make a merit too."

"Come, these are the case files of the four unsolved murder cases in our jurisdiction. See if you can solve them." Casually separating Zhao Zhendong's case file and putting it on Xia Jie's desk, Wang Yan waved his hand at Zhao Jiwei.

"Hey, I'll take a look too, I'm curious." Li Dawei walked over and flipped through the case file, Yang Tree also walked over curiously, followed by Zhao Jiwei.

Without Wang Yan driving people away, the three kids tacitly took one case each, went back, sat at the table, and flipped through them, not even working, just wanting to see what a real suspense murder case was like.

Looking at the records of solved cases and looking at the case files of unsolved cases are absolutely two different things. Because in the minds of ambitious young people, solved cases are others' merits, and who says unsolved cases can't be their own?

Wang Yan was too lazy to pay attention to them, went to Zhang Zhijie to ask for the packing box of the illegal possession case caught in the morning, and started to lift fingerprints with the tools for extracting fingerprints.

Criminal cases need a complete chain of evidence to support them. There are previous vehicle entry and exit videos at the entrance, elevator card swiping records, body-worn camera records, and the fingerprints of Han Tianquan and Lv Shuzhen on the box, as well as reasonable, legal, and compliant interrogation monitoring and transcripts. This is to nail the two of them to the crime of encroachment.

It's nothing more than them finding lawyers to defend, trying their best to defend Han Tianquan's guilt to be lighter and come out earlier.

After this series of things is done, by the time Lv Shuzhen comes out of prison, it will be about the breakdown of a family that was originally quite harmonious, because they will definitely settle old scores and will definitely find responsibility for this criminal offense on each other. That scene is two greedy people who don't admit their greed and must find out who is greedier.

Clearly, this is a sad story. Whether it is for this couple who were originally living quite well, or for that fifteen-year-old child, it is not a good thing.

But what is even clearer is that it has nothing to do with Wang Yan, the police officer who caught them; it is just their own doing. Anyway, for such players, Wang Yan must catch one if he sees one, and catch them again if they commit crimes again. If you don't want to live a good life, then don't live it.

Extracting fingerprints is fast, and comparing fingerprints is also not slow. Because this time it is a targeted comparison, just find the fingerprints of Qiao An, Wu Qian, Han Tianquan, and Lv Shuzhen to compare.

Under normal circumstances, only the fingerprints of these four people will exist on these things. If other fingerprints exist, it is not impossible to explain. After all, friends come to the house to sit, and touching them casually is also reasonable. After all, the ornaments in the house, according to common sense, are not wiped very diligently, or maybe they are not wiped at all, especially in the situation where two young people live, the fingerprints attached to them can still be preserved for a long time.

But if strange fingerprints appear with a relatively high frequency and the integrity of the fingerprints is relatively large, then there are more or less some problems. Especially since their box was placed in the bedroom, according to common sense, those things were placed in the bedroom. When friends come to the house to sit, even if the relationship is very good, a man should not stay in the bedroom for too long.

Yes, this is another sad story. Wang Yan discovered the fingerprints of a twenty-four-year-old man named Deng Junyang, which appeared on most of the items in this box.

Originally, Wang Yan wouldn't have scanned all these things. He just needed to scan the lid of the plastic packing box and the items with relatively high value inside. But after discovering this extra fingerprint, based on the principle of the united front of the vast number of male comrades, Wang Yan finally spent more than an hour scanning all the things for fingerprints. And it took more than thirty minutes to compare this extra fingerprint.

Although Wang Yan's surname is Wang, if you look into it carefully, he actually hasn't done this kind of thing many times. Even Gu Jia when he was young, he waited until the husband-wife relationship broke down before taking her down. The only one that could be considered a bit low-class was Xiao Hong in "Spring Breeze Is Not as Good as You" before, which was truly being a "Cao thief" for once. But it wasn't his intention; it was Xiao Hong taking revenge on Qiu Shui and taking the initiative to come up, and he didn't resist...

"Brother Zhang, give me Qiao An's phone number."

"What's wrong?" Zhang Zhijie was preparing materials here. The previous "head-rush" electronic cigarette had been followed up by Gao Chao. Next, just listen to Gao Chao's instructions.

"I found quite a few fingerprints in that box, one of which appeared particularly often. After comparison, it was found to be a twenty-four-year-old man named Deng Junyang."

"Oh... hmm?" Zhang Zhijie answered habitually, then reacted, looking at Wang Yan in surprise, "You mean..."

"Those things should have been placed in the bedroom, and this Deng Junyang is only twenty-four. I looked at it, this Deng Junyang's mother and Qiao An's mother are not the same origin, Qiao An is twenty..."

Zhang Zhijie sighed and turned to ask: "Do you want to tell him? This matter is troublesome. If they break up later, Qiao An's conditions are so good, and that Wu Qian, I see, is also quite arrogant. It's hard to say she won't complain about us..."

"I'll use our office phone to call. Anyway, there are recordings. It's reasonable to ask after discovering other people's fingerprints. What if Han Tianquan and Lv Shuzhen have other accomplices? This is also possible, so ask if he knows this person." Wang Yan's face was righteous, his words were righteous, he smiled, and then continued, "Besides, for this kind of rotten thing, what if she complains? It doesn't hurt or itch. If she wants to complain, let her complain; it's no big deal."

Shaking his head, Zhang Zhijie: "I'll tell him." They are all men; he actually tends to call. And Qiao An's conditions are quite good. Watching him be played by such a woman, the feeling is still very bad.

"No need, it's really nothing. If that woman complains, I won't say anything. Can I still find trouble for her because of this? Don't worry, Brother Zhang."

Complaining is a rule. Under this system, he has to bear this. There are many people who make trouble unreasonably, and there are also many players who can't see the situation. Even if he releases his murderous aura and his eyes are staring out, there are still players who dare to be stubborn and play rogue.

The reasons for police being complained about are similar to those for delivering food—all kinds of things. If every complaint is taken seriously, there is no way to carry out work. If Wu Qian really complains, the superior department will just understand the situation, and they won't pay too much attention. Calling back just means the police's operation had no problems, and it won't have any impact on Wang Yan at all.

It's nothing more than having one more person scolding the police on the internet from now on...

Actually, if you look into it carefully, police law enforcement is damaging the "interests" of some people, let's call them interests. Thieves are caught, their illegal gains will be confiscated, they will be fined, and they will have to go to jail. Prostitutes are caught, they have to be detained, and they have to be fined. People who fight have to go to jail and be fined. They are all people who take advantage, and they are all punished. They are unhappy, their families are unhappy, and they feel they have been treated unfairly.

This is also part of the reason why the police's reputation is not good. How can you expect people who have been cleaned up to speak well of them? Then there are stupid people who follow the crowd, bad people in the police force, and the speeches of the masses who have really been harmed, and bad people among the masses. With various reasons superimposed, it would be strange if the police's reputation could be good.

Zhang Zhijie still gave the phone number to Wang Yan and returned to his workstation. Wang Yan picked up the phone on the table and dialed according to the number. After waiting for two rings, the phone was connected.

"I am Wang Yan, a police officer at Balihe Station. Is this Qiao An?"

"Officer Wang, it's me, it's me. Why are you calling me so late?" The polite voice of Qiao An came from the opposite side, and he was surprised that Wang Yan was still working at nine o'clock, and also expressed his worry about the police calling him so late.

"It's like this. I extracted the fingerprints of your packing box and all the things inside, and found that besides you and Wu Qian, and today's Lv Shuzhen and Han Tianquan, there is another fingerprint that appears the most. After comparison, this person is named Deng Junyang, twenty-four years old this year. I think this is besides the Han-Lv couple touching your things, could there be a third person committing the crime, and they didn't explain it clearly? Or is this person your friend? These are all possible, so I'm asking if you know this person."

"Deng Junyang? Never heard of it. Do you know him?"

Clearly, Qiao An was not asking Wang Yan, but Wu Qian who was listening to the phone with him.

"I don't know him either."

On the phone, Wu Qian's voice was a bit urgent; it could be heard that she was eager to deny the fact of knowing Deng Junyang. What was even clearer was that Qiao An was not a fool.

So there was a silence for a while, quiet for a few seconds, and Wu Qian's voice suddenly became high-pitched: "Qiao An, do you suspect I'm cheating? I really don't know this Deng Junyang."

Wang Yan clearly heard Qiao An's deep breath suppressing his anger, and immediately Qiao An said: "Thank you, Officer Wang, for working so late for our business. Now it seems that Deng Junyang doesn't seem to have anything to do with this case. Sorry to bother you, Officer Wang."

"It's nothing, but let me remind you, obey the law."

"Yes, yes, yes, don't worry, such a small matter is not worth it, let's part on good terms. Then I'll hang up and deal with the problem. Goodbye, Officer Wang."

"Goodbye." Wang Yan replied and hung up the phone with a smile.

Qiao An is a person who knows how to restrain himself, and also a person who is unwilling to argue. The noise in the morning was all Wu Qian and Lv Shuzhen; he was just frowning, both annoyed by the noise and annoyed by Lv Shuzhen's rogue behavior. This is a person who likes to reason. If he can't reason, given his family conditions, he is a person who believes in taking action rather than forcing. Of course, this "taking action" refers to calling the police.

Besides the fact that this kid's family conditions are relatively superior, this is actually the status quo of most young people. They all like to reason, but reality often makes them helpless with rogue people. Generally, in this situation, the police's "mixing mud" also makes them disgusted. It's still what was said before, because the police are all making them retreat.

However, no matter how much this kid can restrain himself, he is only a twenty-six-year-old young man. He is still a man with superior family conditions and is very popular. With his conditions, a girlfriend he loves very much, he actually had a green hat put on him.

His mood is understood by no one, his anger can be imagined...

Xia Jie on the side had been listening to the movement. Seeing Wang Yan hang up the phone, she leaned over and whispered: "Did that Wu Qian in the morning cheat?"

Wang Yan nodded: "Very likely."

"Qiao An's conditions are so good, he can bear to buy her jewelry necklaces worth more than thirty thousand, which shows that he is also very good to her. You say, what is she thinking?"

"There are many unsatisfied people in this world, and many people who think they are smart, and she is not the only one." Wang Yan turned to ask, "How is the case file? Any thoughts?"

"No, just as you said, what we can think of, the previous investigators have all thought of. I can even see the suspicion of Zhao Zhangyi in the case file, but there is nothing. You say, is it possible that it is not Zhao Zhangyi, and the investigation direction is wrong?"

"Of course, but the possibility is not great. Have you noticed the forensic autopsy report? It says multiple people hit. This 'multiple people' is the key. The one in Dongning Village who has this ability is Zhao Zhangyi. Of course, others may be hidden deeper, and it is not certain that they have not been discovered."

"It is also mainly because Zhao Zhendong disappeared for two years before being discovered. When he reported missing two years ago, our station didn't pay much attention to it. You also know, hoodlums, they are not popular. At that time, the situation was not understood in detail. By the time the corpse was discovered, two years had passed, and the villagers had long forgotten about the things before Zhao Zhendong disappeared. Otherwise, maybe this case would have been broken, and maybe Zhao Zhangyi would have been handled back then."

Wang Yan waved his hand, "Alright, don't waste your brain. If it can be broken, it can be broken; if it can't be broken, it doesn't matter. Don't add trouble to yourself. And sitting here thinking, it's definitely not possible to write it out. It's still necessary to understand the situation more. Work, if you are tired, go back early."

"What time are you leaving?"

"Compare two more fingerprints, do an image enhancement. If it's fast, one hour; if it's slow, two hours."

"Then I'll wait for you to leave together. There is so much work, it's better to deal with it early, otherwise it will only get more and more. I visit with you during the day, but I still have to write materials at night."

"Work, work..."

Wang Yan took a sip of tea, organized the fingerprint materials of Lv Shuzhen's case, and then started image enhancement and fingerprint comparison.

Today there is only one image enhancement for stealing a car, which is good news. Since he started image enhancement until now, it has been half a month. After half a month of high-intensity case handling, many thieves who left images in the surveillance and stole cars have been caught. At first, Balihe would go to other stations' jurisdictions to catch people and bring them back to handle cases, but now they send the cases out and let other stations catch people.

Just like the two car thieves Wang Yan caught before, they would all confess where they sold the stolen goods, and know other thieves. If they scare them, they can also interrogate all the cases they did before, accumulate them, change administrative to criminal, and send them directly to step on the sewing machine. It is also because of this that catching one often pulls out one or two. In addition, some police stations also squat at the places where stolen goods are sold, pay attention to those who look like hoodlums, and catch them directly after confirming.

Affected by this, even without the special rectification action organized by the municipal bureau, the actual Ping'an City has also started an action to crack down on theft. As the most responsive Balihe area, they caught those who committed crimes before and caught those who might not have stepped into the Ping'an City theft circle by chance. The reports of lost things in the jurisdiction have become less and less recently.

This merit must definitely be counted on Wang Yan, as well as the many fingerprint comparisons he made, quickly catching suspects and bringing them to justice—all of which are merits.

There is also the health product fraud he caught with Zhao Jiwei before. In the past two days, the grandpas and grandmas in Dongning Village have not been idle. The station chief of the neighboring Majiagou even sent a banner. Recently, two groups of health product fraud have been caught in the Balihe jurisdiction, but the case value is relatively small, and the case has not been closed yet. These are all Wang Yan's merits, because fundamentally, it is the result of his good mass work.

Just the situation in Dongning Village is enough for Station Wang Suozhang to write a report to the branch bureau, Bureau Chief Song to write a report to the municipal bureau, and the municipal bureau to conduct research. Just this outstanding mass work result in Dongning Village might even be reported to the provincial department.

The provincial department will then make a horizontal comparison of the work reports of various prefecture-level cities. Ping'an City Balihe Dongning Village is particularly prominent, and the achievements of Balihe Station have improved significantly. If they research it, it might become a typical case. Not to mention issuing commendations, it must also be reported to the ministry. At that level, it's hard to say. A village is still a bit insufficient. Experience, methods, ten thousand people in a village, even if the situation is complex, it's still a bit lacking.

However, this situation is very likely to happen. Do not underestimate officials, and do not overestimate them. Now that feudal superstition has been broken and auspicious signs are not allowed to be reported, otherwise these people can also do things like man-made auspicious signs. Like Dongning Village's grassroots, practical mass work, for socialist China, is extremely correct, has no burden, and is definitely reported as beautifully as possible.

For various reasons, Wang Shouyi would say whether he could reach a third-class merit.

Otherwise, the merit of him opening a big case is indeed great, but there are various links in the middle that he, a small police officer, did not participate in. In fact, it is still not greater than the merits of criminal police. Such a matter is definitely not enough to reach a third-class merit; it is to recommend him up through this matter and then evaluate other achievements.

As for Xia Jie's commendation, it is another situation. It is the legacy of Xia Jie's father, the martyr, and the care of Station Wang Suozhang and Bureau Chief Song. If there is a little merit, it must be magnified. Looking at it this way, Xia Jie is also enough for a commendation.

Of course, the premise is that this electronic cigarette case must be truly big, otherwise it won't make sense. Station Wang Suozhang and Bureau Chief Song will not be so unprincipled; they should care when they should care, but they can't go too far, otherwise they won't be able to lead the team.

But the actual situation is that a factory that has been operating stably for at least half a year, how could it be a small case.

The next afternoon, Gao Chao took everyone in the station except the duty personnel and Wang Yan and Xia Jie, and together with the branch anti-drug brigade and the municipal anti-drug first brigade, more than seventy people marched toward the suburbs of Guangming and caught more than ten people.

On the spot, five kilograms of various refined drugs were seized. They used drugs to synthesize smoke cartridges themselves, and there were many reserves of various materials. And this is five kilograms of drugs. Not to mention whether it is fatal or not, these things are reduced in purity and processed into drugs for sale. The market price must be three or four million. They synthesize smoke cartridges, only using a very small amount, and can sell them for several times the price. To be honest, they earn more than drug dealers.

This may still be in the early stage. If they are not caught for another year or two, according to the conduct of this group of people, maybe they have started to purchase raw materials such as ephedrine to refine drugs themselves.

Undoubtedly, this is a big case. Where did the pure drug raw materials from the upstream come from, and where are the merchants selling electronic cigarettes downstream? These are all things that need to be traced. Especially the raw materials from the upstream, this is the top priority. The downstream distributors are easy to handle; just find them according to their capital inflow. At worst, just have a joint action with the market supervision department, check all the products on the shelves of supermarkets, the police catch the shop owners for detention and fines, market supervision issues fines, or revokes business qualifications...

At this step, it has nothing to do with Balihe. The case is handed over to the municipal bureau and led by the detachment. If this is caught, the anti-drug personnel in Ping'an City will have a happy new year...

This was three days later, and Xia Jie was still a bit unhappy.

Finally finishing visiting the last shop, Wang Yan asked with a smile: "Others have merits and are all eager to have them. Why are you unhappy when it comes to you?"

"We both just happened to bump into someone smoking an electronic cigarette, how could we be commended? I haven't done anything, just standing at the door with the body-worn camera on. How will others look at me?"

"What's there to look at? Of course, it's envy. If Zhao Jiwei had the same conditions as you, the time we bumped into the murder scene before, he would also have been commended. This time, we seized so many drugs and so many electronic cigarette cartridges. The merit of us being the first to discover clues cannot be ignored. No matter how others look at it, the merit is there."

"I know you always treat your father as a burden and don't want to receive special care because of him. But he is your father, he was once the station chief of Balihe Station, and he is a martyr. This cannot be erased. Perhaps you can change a direction and think that this is your father's care for you. Wouldn't it be better? This kind of care is exactly the continuation of his spirit. Unless you don't recognize your father, otherwise you will never be able to truly get rid of these, but this is clearly impossible."

"Just like me, whose money was given? Isn't it left by my parents? When they were alive, they had big houses and a lot of land. Otherwise, how could I have been assigned so much money? And how could I have the confidence to not care about anything?

You, instead of being awkward here, it's better to go home and fight with your mother. If she calms down, your state will definitely be much better. You are like this now because you feel that your mother is troubling the station chief and Bureau Chief Song. If there were no such things, your current feeling should be much better."

"Go to hell, there is no one like you." Xia Jie slapped Wang Yan in unhappiness.

"Anyway, you think about it yourself. Hurry up, put away your emotions. This time we are really going to visit door-to-door. Comrade Xia Jie, do you have confidence?"

"Guarantee to complete the task!" Xia Jie was very cooperative, with a serious face.

The two looked at each other and laughed out loud, walking toward the complex chatting and laughing.

The access card for the complex had long been sent to them by the property manager Ning Jian, and the notice for door-to-door visits had also been posted all over the unit doors, the bulletin board on the elevator, and the entrance of the complex. Anyway, it was everywhere.

And unsurprisingly, Wang Yan had caught two groups in the three days he came, and his deeds in Dongning Village had spread, and he was welcomed by the masses.

At this time, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and the complex was already bustling. People passing by saw Wang Yan and Xia Jie and always greeted Officer Wang.

The two walked all the way to a building, entered the unit door of a unit, and waited for the elevator chatting and laughing.

The elevator door rose from the underground garage, stopped on the floor where they were, and opened slowly with a ding. A woman in her thirties with light makeup and long hair stood inside holding a bag. She looked very tired, but also seemed very angry.

She met the eyes of Wang Yan and Xia Jie standing at the elevator entrance, and subconsciously dodged her eyes. This was not a guilty conscience, but a subconscious reaction that most people have to strangers.

But after such a reaction, the woman came back to her senses, found that the two were police officers, and exchanged glances again.

"Is it Officer Wang? The notice is posted right here. It says you are going to visit door-to-door, go deep into the masses, discover problems, and solve problems. Now I have a problem. I don't know if you can solve it for me..."
