Chapter 3 1. The first case

The noise of the 212 Jeep was deafening, and I was thrown up every few seconds while sitting in the back seat. The hat on my head was not secure at all, and it would fall off several times.I held it down in embarrassment and looked angrily at the driver. The person in the driver's seat is smoking a cigarette. You can smell it as cheap local cigarettes. The choking smell makes me cough. I want to open the window, but the yellow dust billows outside the door. Let me dispel this idea... The 212 Jeep is driving on the common loess road in the countryside at the moment, and the driver named "Old Cheng" is driving the car very fast. Terracotta warriors and horses return clay puppets.

But the driver turned around and smiled: "Isn't it fun to go for a drive?" If it weren't for the police academy teaching us to be "humility and peace" every day, I would have punched him flying.Resisting the urge to vomit, I asked him, "Why don't you take the asphalt road, and you want to take the loess road?" "This road is a shortcut, and we can save time. As a policeman, the most precious resource is time, and you will know later. The off-road performance of 212 is very good. Have you ever tried climbing a mountain road with a tractor?"

"Are you picking up newcomers every time?" I wanted to change the subject. "Well, once a year, I will pick you up. So the road is very familiar, don't worry, I will be there soon." But what he said made me uneasy.There are new people joining every year, that is to say, every year there are people... Sacrifice! ? I tried my best to get rid of this uneasy thought, thinking to myself, it is very likely that this guy is deliberately scaring me, he wants to weigh me as a newcomer, right?So I straightened my back even more.The road below was rougher and rougher, and I didn't say a word until the end of the journey.Inadvertently, I saw Lao Cheng watching me through the rearview mirror.

The car finally drove onto the wide national road, and it should be tens of minutes away from the city bureau. At this time, a police car drove up. They seem to know each other. Lao Cheng greeted him from a long distance away. The other party was driving fast. As soon as Lao Cheng waved his hands twice, the other party came to the front and made a gesture. Lao Cheng was startled and came to a sudden brake, and the other party also braked suddenly at the same time. Before the two cars stopped, the other party hastily rolled down the window: "Old Cheng, get ready, there is a case!"

"Team Wang, I have a mission. The bureau asked me to pick up the newcomer. I'm in my car now. I haven't brought him to report yet!" "What's the report? There's a new missing person. It's very likely that it's the continuation of the '7? 24' serial disappearance! The bureau asked me to organize people to start the investigation as soon as possible. There is a shortage of manpower, so don't be lazy." "Who is lazy... I just want to bring the newcomers to familiarize themselves with the familiar environment first. I will handle the case later..."

"What's interesting in the bureau, take him to the scene, the scene is the best class!" The other party pulled the window and the car started. "This is Brother Wang from the team, our leader, say hello, we will be colleagues from now on." Lao Cheng reminded me. I rolled down the car window and was about to say hello to Brother Wang when he shook his hand, and the car shot out like an arrow. Lao Cheng turned around and followed Brother Wang's car. "What case is that '7? 24'?" I asked. "The boss is in such a hurry that he even forgot the confidentiality regulations." Lao Cheng shook his head, "I didn't want you to participate in the case so early, but now it seems that there is no other way..."
