Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 750 Even a carefree person can be sentimental.
Chen Chuan rubbed his buttocks and watched for a long time before shaking his head and saying, "These two men are getting so emotionally involved when they meet that people might misunderstand and think they had some kind of relationship before?"

Jiang Hai smacked his lips, snapping out of his daze at the crime scene. He peeked out from behind Chen Chuan and commented, "The main thing is that this senior is wearing a police uniform. If someone takes a picture of this and posts it online, it'll be big news. What was the title again? 'Unbearable Love.' Brother Chuan, what do you think? Will it go viral?"

Chen Chuan nodded and affirmed, "A massive fire!"

"What are you two thinking about all day long? Your heads are full of filthy things!" Chen Shu casually scolded them a few times, then pulled the two unreliable guys away a bit, leaving space for the two old comrades to catch up.

About ten minutes later, Zhu Yiba and Huang Mao came over.

Zhu Yiba introduced Huang Mao to Chen Shu and his group, saying that Huang Mao was one of his soldiers when he was a platoon leader at the border, and that they had gone through thick and thin together.

The two were quite lucky, as they encountered a border defense reform that was a once-in-a-lifetime event. They also faced unavoidable objective problems, so with the support of their original units, one came to Dongzhou from another province to become a special police officer, while the other became a criminal police officer in the area where the unit was stationed.

Huang Mao was overjoyed, saying that he had a pleasant chat with Chen Shu and several other colleagues. It turned out they were all on the same side. Birds of a feather flock together, no wonder they all ended up together.

With Zhu Yiba acting as an intermediary, the conversation between the two groups became much more relaxed. Chen Shu, who originally did not want to get involved in the case, offered a few suggestions out of a desire to help his own people. He asked the young policeman nicknamed "Yellow Hair" why, as a criminal police officer in the jurisdiction, he was at the scene of a case, especially a major case involving a death, why he didn't do anything first.
Upon hearing this, Huang Mao's face immediately scrunched up like a chrysanthemum.

Chen Shu's question stemmed from the bewilderment one would expect from a police officer handling a case: how could a police officer arrive at a scene and not investigate or conduct a proper examination? This was no joke; if something went wrong and responsibility was assigned, the consequences would be far more serious than simply taking off one's clothes.

Zhu Yiba also had questions, but his focus was on how a demobilized border guard could end up in a criminal investigation unit that requires extremely strong professional skills.

When he was first sent from Yunnan Province to Dongzhou City for border defense reform, he received police training with the local border defense team. Afterwards, most of them were sent to special police teams, which didn't require much brainpower.

The remaining few either went to logistics and regulatory departments, such as the city bureau's canteen, detention center, and detention house, or to police stations that were often short-staffed.

The guys who went to the police station all stayed with the patrol team first. They weren't even bothered with community household registration, let alone handling public security cases.

How did it all end up being classified as a major criminal case when it came to Huang Mao?
Isn't this playing with people's lives?
"Is anyone from your unit coming?" Chen Shu asked with some concern.

The blond-haired man said with a bitter face, "They said they wanted me to come and see if it was a murder case, but I can't tell anything about this stuff. I can only wait for the people from the crime scene investigation team to come."

"That's good." Knowing that someone would come to his rescue, Secretary Chen breathed a sigh of relief and waited patiently.

"Want one?" Chen Chuan tore open a specially supplied yellow cigarette pack, first tossing one to Zhu Yiba, and then handing one to this newly acquainted colleague.

"Alright." The blond-haired guy's face instantly turned from a bitter expression to a smile. He happily took the cigarette and said, "We heard you say earlier that your cigarettes have the taste of our army, Brother Chuan."

Jiang Hai leaned over and asked curiously, "Brother Chuan, what kind of cigarettes are you smoking? I'd like to try some."

Halfway through his sentence, Jiang Hai glanced to the side subconsciously and boldly said, "Hey, I'm an adult! How can a policeman not smoke?"

Upon hearing this, everyone present burst into laughter.

Soldiers and police officers are essentially the same, because they both started smoking before they were adults, so they deeply resonated with Jiang Hai's forced explanation.

"Yellow Hair, what cases have you solved?" Zhu Yiba thought about his simple-minded subordinate, who didn't seem like the kind of criminal police officer who could fight against cunning criminals.

Without hesitation, the blond-haired man said, "Brother Ba, there aren't any."

Zhu Yiba was equally stunned: "You were put into the Major Crimes Unit without doing anything? And then you were sent to the scene of this dead body case all by yourself?"

Chen Chuan turned his head to look at Chen Shu, chuckled, and said with a meaningful look in his eyes, "Shu, it seems there's going to be trouble." Chen Shu's expression gradually became serious.

Chen Shu was unsure about other places in Donghai Province, but in Dongzhou City, and even Zhengming District, whenever a murder occurred, the bureau chief might not be present, but the duty officers, the criminal investigation team leaders, and the local police station leaders would all rush over.

Unlike now, they've been stuck here smoking two cigarettes, and apart from the two auxiliary police officers Huang Mao brought, they haven't seen a single person yet.

This gives a glimpse into the style of the capital city of Yunnan Province.

Chen Chuan agreed and offered another round of cigarettes to the people present.

Huang Mao clearly hadn't realized the seriousness of the problem. He took another cigarette and asked Chen Chuan with a smile why he didn't smoke.

Chen Chuan jokingly remarked that the other party was saving cigarettes for everyone to smoke.

Chen Shu stopped Chen Chuan from continuing his nonsense, pulled Zhu Yiba aside, explained his views on the local police's handling of the murder case, and then raised a few questions of his own.

Chen Shu hadn't originally planned to say these things, after all, they were on someone else's territory. Moreover, Yunnan Province and Donghai Province were more than 2,000 miles apart, and they were adjacent to a world-renowned no-man's-land, which meant that special circumstances might arise.

After listening, Zhu Yiba stroked his chin and said, "Chen Da, no matter how special the case is, you can't let someone who just joined the public security system handle this kind of criminal case involving murder. I think there must be a reason for this. But I asked Huang Mao many times before, and he couldn't give me a clear answer. Look at him now, he's still happily chatting with Chen Chuan, not realizing the seriousness of the problem at all."

Having led teams before and coming from a high-ranking official's family in Taipei, Zhu Yiba, though not particularly familiar with police procedures, could roughly guess what was happening, though he lacked a clear solution.

Chen Shuchao raised his chin at the two local auxiliary police officers standing guard at the entrance: "The blond guy is naive and just started in criminal investigation. He doesn't know the ins and outs of this place, but I think we can ask those two. Judging from his age and demeanor, he should be a senior member of their unit."

Zhu Yiba suddenly realized what was happening and was about to go over when Chen Shu stopped him.

Chen Shu called Chen Chuan over, explained the situation to him, and then asked him to find out more about the two auxiliary police officers.

The best choice for this kind of task is to leave it to Chen Chuan, whose social skills are as natural as eating and drinking. Zhu Yiba, who spends every day with him, is also aware of this.

After accepting the task, Chen Chuan pulled out a brand new pack of yellow cigarettes from his pocket. While tearing off the transparent paper, he feigned melancholy and made a request: "It seems I don't have enough cigarettes to take with me this time. What should I do?"

"Go now!" Chen Shu kicked him. "If you don't have enough cigarettes, go downstairs and buy some yourself."

After Chen Chuan left with a grin, Chen Shu shrugged: "That's just how he is, don't take it personally."

Thinking back to the fact that this trip to Yunnan Province was Chen Chuan's idea, the purpose was to let his good friend Chen Shu relax; and then a while ago, Chen Chuan casually took Zhu Yiba out at night to hang out and find women, and he noticed that Zhu Yiba had something on his mind.

When Chen Chuan, who had drunk too much, took the opportunity to discuss Chen Shu's problems, he slurred that no man in the world is immune to the allure of alcohol and women, which was actually a veiled attack on Zhu Yiba, and Zhu Yiba understood it all.

Chen Chuan may seem carefree and have high emotional intelligence on the outside, but when he encounters true feelings, he becomes extremely shy and not good at expressing himself. However, deep down, he values ​​friendship very much.

After spending more time together, you can see the difference.

Zhu Yiba smiled and said, "Brother Chen, I know what I'm doing."
