Riverside Police.

Chapter 1336 Waiting at the Yangtze River Estuary (I)

Although Han Xiangning is the deputy director of the Navigation Supervision Department, he is more like a leader than Han Yu, the police chief. As soon as he officially took office, he started to investigate various grassroots law enforcement units.

Chief Han Yu does the same thing as an ordinary police officer. Not only does he have to enforce the law on the front line like ordinary police officers, but he also has to worry about many things that ordinary police officers don't have to worry about.

A few months before the opening of the Olympic Games, the number of foreign tourists coming to Donghai has increased significantly, and it is conceivable that there will be more in the future. Whenever people come to Donghai, most of them will take a cruise to visit the Huangpu River. Whether a ship meets the passenger transport requirements and navigation safety is under the jurisdiction of the maritime affairs department, but the fire safety of the ship is under the jurisdiction of the maritime public security department.

There are only two full-time fire police officers in the bureau, and they are overwhelmed by the task of inspecting so many cruise ships and ferries. Han Yu has to do it himself, leading his new colleagues in the inspections while teaching them fire safety knowledge.

When we drove to the cruise ship terminal, the person in charge of the cruise company immediately came to greet us.

Han Yu didn't bother to greet others. He just shook hands and said hello before leading the two new police officers, Bai Xinyu and Miao Fangyuan, on board.

"Director Han, how do you need us to cooperate?"

"Manager Wang, where is the captain?"

"I'm the captain."

"What's your last name?"

"Your surname is Liu, Liu Changsheng."

"Captain Liu, we are busy, and you are even busier. Let's hurry up and give us a walkie-talkie. Go back to the bridge and do whatever I tell you to do."

"Ok."

Han Yu looked nothing like a police chief. He was wearing a dark blue work suit. He bent over and opened the fire detection instrument box he brought with him. He took out the water pressure tester and neatly installed it on the fire hose of the cruise ship. He looked up and said, "Xiaobai, notify the captain to open the No. 1 hose."

"Yes!" Bai Xinyu had just graduated from the police academy. He had not learned these things, let alone done these things. He could not help and could only help pass on the message.

Following Han Yu's order, the captain and crew immediately "delivered water".

After checking, it was found that the static water pressure met the standard, but the water pressure was insufficient. Han Yu asked the two boys to record it and go check the No. 2 water gun.

After checking the fire pump and water gun, put the water pressure tester back, take out the megohmmeter to check the insulation resistance of the electrical equipment on board, and then use the clamp multimeter to measure the resistance of the electrical circuit on board.

There are colorful lights on the boat and even stage decorations on the upper deck.

Han Yu asked Xiaobai to inform the captain to turn on all the colored lights, take out the temperature probe tester from the test box, and test the stage decoration materials.

After nearly two hours of hard work, we notified the captain to set sail.

He took two young men into the engine room where the noise was deafening and the heat was so hot that people were sweating. During the more than one-hour voyage, they used professional instruments such as infrared thermometers and thermal imagers to test the high-temperature exhaust pipes, colorful light decorations, electrical circuits, and substation equipment of the ship's main engine. They also used clamp multimeters to measure the load current, etc.

"Lao Gui" and other crew members were stunned. They couldn't believe that the Chief of the Maritime Public Security Bureau knew everything.

"Leader, have you studied marine engineering?"

"Yes, I studied shipping at first."

"You also understand electricity?"

Han Yu packed up the equipment and smiled, "Master Qian, I have worked on ships like you, both large and small. As long as you work on a ship, you must master these simple skills."

Xiao Bai looked at the astonished expressions of the crew members and was proud of his leader from the bottom of his heart. He said proudly: "Our Han Bureau has a certificate of competency for captains of ocean-going vessels with unlimited navigation areas. He has served on ocean-going cargo ships and has also served as an escort captain for naval fleets sailing around the world."

"I was wondering how you knew everything. So you are the captain."

“Not at first.”

An old sailor squeezed over and couldn't help asking, "Boss, have you ever worked in the Shipping Bureau?"

"Yes, I have," Han Yu stood up and said with a smile, "I have worked on passenger ships of the Maritime Administration, and I have also worked on cargo ships of the Maritime Administration. I have worked on the Nanyang and Beiyang ships. When I worked at the Maritime Administration, our passenger ship was anchored not far ahead."

"Boss, I also came from the Maritime Bureau!"

"is it?"

"Really? You look so familiar to me. Leader, do you recognize Zhu Zhenghua?"

"Yes, Captain Zhu has taken me with him."

"I have sailed with Captain Zhu for more than a dozen voyages in total."

"I didn't spend as much time on the same ship with him as you did. I only sailed with him on three voyages, and I was the third mate at that time."

The former Maritime Administration had many ships under its umbrella.

Crew members are different from employees of ordinary companies, especially cargo ship crew members. They work on one ship this time and on another ship next time. It is impossible for them to work on any one ship. Although they are in the same unit, it is difficult to meet them at ordinary times.

Han Yu was as happy as Master Yang to meet an "old colleague" here. As they were chatting, Political Commissar Bi suddenly called.

Han Yu apologized to Master Yang, went over to wash his hands, answered the phone and asked, "Political Commissar, what's the matter?"

"Director Han, the army called you but couldn't get through, so they called the bureau and asked me to ask if you are busy tomorrow morning. If not, please come to the base."

"I was checking in the cabin just now. Maybe I didn't hear it because of the noise." Han Yu looked up in the direction of the customs building and asked with his phone raised, "Did the East China Sea Base tell me what to do tomorrow morning?"

Political Commissar Bi looked at the phone record and smiled, "I told you, the call was from a staff officer in the base's equipment department. He said that tomorrow is the tenth anniversary of the establishment of the equipment department, and they are planning to hold a celebration and would like to invite you to attend."

"The Equipment Department. My part-time job in the army belongs to the headquarters. They are celebrating, so what am I going to do?"

"I don't know about that. Anyway, you were invited."

"Please call me back and tell them that I really don't have time tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll reply like this."

"Wait." Han Yu was too busy with work in the bureau to go to the Navy's East China Sea Base. After thinking about it, he asked again, "Political Commissar, have you reviewed the situation of the more than 200 crew members temporarily recruited by the Maritime Administration?"

"I just reviewed more than 40 of them. Director Han, don't worry, I will work hard and try to finish them before the end of the month."

"Did you find any problems?"

"One of the crew members has a criminal record."

The Olympic security work has already kicked off. It will take several months to implement normalized three-level water area control. When the football group stage begins, first-level control will be implemented in major water areas, during which time a large number of ships entering the Huangpu River will need to be checked.

The Maritime Public Security Bureau is short of staff, and so is the Maritime Administration.

To ensure that dozens of law enforcement boats patrol and inspect the river 24 hours a day, the Maritime Safety Administration temporarily recruited more than 200 crew members from shipping companies in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and other places. To ensure that the identities of these external crew members are pure and reliable, the Maritime Public Security Bureau should, according to the requirements of the Maritime Safety Administration leaders, give full play to the advantages of the public security online investigation and organize police forces to examine and visit these crew members one by one.

In short, there must be no problems with the personnel involved in security.

Han Yu asked in a low voice: "Have you reported to the Maritime Administration?"

"I have reported it. As for whether he will be fired or transferred to another position, I don't know."

"It's good that you've reported it. Political Commissar, please take a moment to continue the review. This work must be completed before the end of the month."

……

After finishing the call with Political Commissar Bi, Han Yu took the folder from Xiaobai, took out a pen and issued a rectification notice on the spot, requiring the cruise company to immediately rectify the fire hazards found in the inspection just now.

Then board the second cruise ship and continue the inspection.

The inspection continued until after 6 p.m. Xiaobai thought he could call it a day, but he didn't expect the director to take them straight to Baoshan.

The police car drove into the courtyard of the Baoshan Police Station of the Changhang Donghai Branch, and an old senior came to greet it.

"Director Han, where have you been?"

"The fire inspector of the cruise ship has been inspecting for a whole day." Han Yu tightly held the hand of Lao Wu, the instructor of Baoshan Police Station, and asked with a smile: "Teacher Wu, can we have a meal at your place?"

"What are you talking about, Director Han? It's better for you to come at the right time than to come early. We are preparing to have dinner, and we will have an extra meal tonight."

"Then I won't be polite to you."

"Let's eat first, and then we can talk while we eat."

"Okay," Han Yu followed Teacher Wu to the cafeteria, introduced two new colleagues, and then talked about business: "Teacher Wu, we have made arrangements over there, how many people can you send out tonight?"

"Twelve. We have arranged them here as well, and deployed them according to your plan."

"Thank you. If we rely solely on the maritime police, we can cast a net, but there are too many loopholes."

Old Wu laughed and said, "The Yangtze River Estuary is not only under the jurisdiction of your maritime police, it is also our jurisdiction. What's our relationship? Director He said that we will cooperate with you in whatever way you need us to cooperate with."

Han Yu said with emotion: "At the critical moment, I still rely on my mother's family."

"No more talking, let's eat first."

This was Xiao Bai and Xiao Miao's first time at the Changhang Police Station. They took their lunch trays and sat down, curiously asking, "Director Han, is there going to be a big operation tonight?"

Han Yu took a sip of soup and said lightly, "It's not a big operation. We're just going to wait at the mouth of the Yangtze River to see if we can catch those bastards who specialize in stealing batteries for navigation lights."

"What if we can't catch them in the act?"

"If we can't catch them today, there's always tomorrow. If we can't catch them tomorrow, there's always the day after tomorrow. As long as those bastards dare to commit crimes again, there will always be a day when we catch them in the act. In short, starting today, we will ambush at the mouth of the Yangtze River every night."

"day by day?"

“This is the only solution, but it is also the most effective solution.”

"You're not going home tonight?"

"I have discussed with the Political Commissar and Director Xiang that we will take turns to lead the team to stake out the Yangtze River estuary. You too, from today on, all police officers must take turns to participate in the operation. Stick to it for a month. I don't believe that we won't be able to catch those bastards who destroyed the navigation mark!"

No wonder we had to ask Changhang Public Security for help.

Although the police force in the bureau has increased, the water security task is also heavy and they really cannot spare too many people.

Xiaobai was a little scared to wait at the mouth of the Yangtze River.

He was not afraid of hardship or fatigue, but he was afraid of seasickness. After returning from the BJ training, he had vomited more than a dozen times, and all of them were caused by seasickness on the river.

After dinner, we were going to the estuary, where the wind was strong and the waves were fierce, and the boat was much more bumpy than on the river. Xiaobai wanted to say something but stopped, not daring to speak.

The same thing happened to Xiao Miao. Not only did he not dare to make a sound, he even didn't dare to eat too much, for fear that he would vomit more painfully than before.
