Police order

In the early morning of January 2023, 1, along the Pujiang River, the Bund was crowded with people.

"happy New Year!"

“Happy New Year should be said in the Gregorian calendar year!”

"It doesn't matter that much!"

"There is!"

"Look at that, it's so beautiful."

"The banks are rich, look at their ships, the lights are so bright!"

"That's not the bank's boat, it's the bank's advertisement on the boat here!"

"A meaning!"

Lu Ling looked at the Huangpu River, listening to the bickering of the lovers around him, and sighed: "It would be great if we could fish."

"There are fishing spots, the Suzhou River side is said to be good, but there are too many fishing friends and too few fish, so we might as well find another black pit to catch a fish."

"Yes," Lu Ling nodded.

Recently, he and Ye Wenxing spent three days fishing together. Although there were countless things he should do, Lu Ling was never in the mood.I have been fishing in the black pit, and the fish I catch can be sold to the boss. Generally speaking, it doesn't cost much.

Yan Yu did not contact Lu Ling, and seemed not to care about the situation here at all.

There were people all around, and they were crowded. Although most people were wearing masks, everyone looked happy.This New Year's Day is the first short holiday after the end of the mask, and it has dispelled some of the haze.

While walking, Lu Ling had already heard at least dozens of people chatting about what happened in Japan these days. Many boys became more and more excited as they talked, and eventually sighed a few times when they talked about that girl.

As of now, no one knows the name of this girl.Her name must have been registered on the island, but apparently it has not been made public.

Lu Ling was already preparing to go back, but when a message came on his phone, he took a look, his face became a little happy, and said to Ye Wenxing, "Let's go, I'll take you to meet a few people."

"Who? It's already past midnight."

"You'll know when you go."

Ye Wenxing touched the gun at his waist and followed Lu Ling.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Lu Ling saw the person he wanted to see.

Qiao Qi, Master Qiao!

Ye Wenxing's marksmanship was also taught by this teacher. Seeing the teacher, he immediately became pleasantly surprised. Lu Ling and Ye Wenxing rushed forward together and hugged Qiao Qi.

"Come, follow me." Qiao Qi pointed to a small building next to him.

This doesn't look like a store open to the public. There is no sign except a house number.The three of them went up to the second floor together, and immediately discovered that the decoration here was dozens of levels higher, with warm light and Chinese style, and the slight aroma of sandalwood could be smelled everywhere. The most important thing was that it was very quiet.

It's bigger than expected, the corridors are layered, and there are multiple screens as you go inside.No one could be seen here, not even the staff. It wasn't until I opened a room that I saw two waiters standing at the door.

After passing the foyer, Qiao Qi led the two of them into the room inside. There were six or seven people in the room, drinking tea and chatting, and two others were playing billiards.

Lu Ling glanced around and saw a few familiar people, including Wang Huadong and Ren Xu.

"Lu Ling!" Wang Huadong came over immediately, "Come, let me introduce to you our boss, Bai Song!"

"Hello Team White," Lu Ling said, and then he realized who this was, "I have long admired your name."

"Similarly, I have admired you for a long time." Bai Song came over and shook hands with Lu Ling.

Bai Song gave Lu Ling a very special feeling. Not to mention wisdom and calmness, the key was that he had a relatively complete temperament. Lu Ling couldn't help but sigh: "The feeling Bai Song gave me is that he has a happy family, two children, a successful career, My parents are healthy, which is kind of perfect.”

"Are you really good at telling fortunes?" Bai Song was stunned for a moment.

"Satisfied, that's all." Lu Ling commented.

Bai Song smiled and said nothing.

"We are all here this time," Qiao Qi and Lu Ling said, "They are here not for Li Jiancheng, but for you."

"Do you want to catch Li Jiancheng? Is there any news that he has returned to China?"

"No," Qiao Qi said, "I have been in contact with this person. He is over there, and he must not be done with it yet. He killed the girl this time, and he will not end like this."

"Oh?" Lu Ling thought for a while, "That's right. Judging from the current situation, the budget of 5000 million U.S. dollars has not been spent yet."

"What will he continue to do?" Bai Song asked. "I don't know. I feel," Lu Ling thought for a while and said with a wry smile, "We can't meet a perfect ending. Including Gina, I'm afraid Gina will never see Li Jiancheng in this life."

"It doesn't matter," Bai Song said, "I have failed a lot of cases. Besides, your case is not a failure at this stage. The story from beginning to end has been rated highly by superiors, although you can't tell on the surface. You are involved in something, but most of you are understanding people. When you come here this time, Bureau Wei asked me to take care of you."

"Thank you Bureau Wei," Lu Ling nodded, "How about you come this time?"

"Meet you."

"Then what?" Lu Ling asked.

"In the new year, let's not talk about work. How about it? Do you know how to drink?" Bai Song asked.

"Not even one gram is enough." Lu Ling said.

"Oh?" After hearing this unit of measurement, Bai Song was silent for a while, "Okay, let's have some midnight snacks."

Although he was in a familiar city, Lu Ling was more like a guest and quickly integrated into the group.

The late-night snack is an ordinary hot pot with very fresh ingredients. Each person has one pot. Considering that Lu Ling loves spicy food, a spicy hot pot was specially prepared for Lu Ling.

Everyone chatted for a full two hours, and it was time to take a rest.After communicating for so long, Lu Ling found out that these people were really here to meet him, which made him a little embarrassed.

He didn't feel how powerful he was. He was really just an ordinary policeman. Especially in the last case, his participation was very low.

Lu Ling knew that Kou Yuyang had been protecting everyone and not letting everyone know anything.Lu Ling had always known that Kou Yuyang and Liu Liwen had secrets, but there was nothing he could do.

After the meal, the waiter came in to clear away the dishes. Lu Ling also went to sit on the sofa nearby and checked his phone. There was no message.

"After talking for so long, Captain Lu, what are your future expectations for the professional police?" Bai Song asked as everyone sat in a circle on the sofa.

"I think the professionalism is still not enough." Lu Ling said.

"Isn't it enough?" Bai Song frowned slightly.

"It's not enough. I think we should build a professional team to deal with future crimes, and even cross national borders in some places." Lu Lingdao.

"You can't say this outside."

"I know, but this is not outside." Lu Ling pointed to the southeast. "I feel that arresting people there will be normalized by next year at the latest, that is, 2024. Telecommunications fraud will inevitably go downhill, but the Internet The future of crime has just begun. Li Jiantong died in a VR video. There will be more and more psychological killing models in the future. We need to work hard on both technology and psychological models."

"Well, that's how it should be. We haven't been able to decide on many things yet, but we can carry out pilot projects in places like Changzhou. Keeping you in Liao Province is really overkill. I propose that starting from June this year, 6 of your three provinces From a team, 3 people were selected and all went to the factory state to try to build a model. This is a long process that also requires scientific research output, and you are the most suitable leader."

"I can go there, but let our boss be the captain. I'm not suitable to lead the team."

"Okay, you and my junior sister are the same."

"What do you think crime will be like in the future? Can people kill people directly through network cables?" Wang Liang asked.

"Yes." Lu Ling said decisively, "Technical problems are bound to be overcome, especially virtual reality. Although many of them are scams now, they will definitely be feasible in the future. Brain-computer interface is just the beginning, and immersive virtual reality We won’t wait too long. On that day, the concept of region will begin to weaken, as will the concept of national borders. The interaction between people will only be limited by the shackles of the speed of light. As long as virtual reality is real enough, it will not be difficult to kill and control people. . I think that in order to stay on top of the next technological explosion, we police should also put forward some of our needs and standards. After all, these can be fed back to the production end."

"What I thought was not wrong at all. You are the person we are looking for," Bai Song said. "Yes, what we want is to establish standards and we cannot just wait. This kind of crime will definitely occur in the future and cannot be eliminated. We No one knows what will happen in the first case, so it’s good to prepare in advance.”

"Will there be such a budget?" Lu Ling was a little confused. Who would consider such a long-term thing?

“Hide your capabilities, bide your time, and prepare for a rainy day.”

"Okay," Lu Ling was very happy.In the virtual reality world, the abilities of psychological "powerful people" will be infinitely amplified. Even a real hypnotist may complete some unimaginable crimes in the virtual world.

This is by no means alarmist, nor can it be eliminated through technology and hormone monitoring alone.In other words, even if you want to use these technologies, you still need some data as a standard, which requires experts like Lu Ling.

Other industries do not need to consider this issue, but the Criminal Investigation Bureau must consider it. This is the most critical thing.

"Then how long do you think it will take for this day to arrive?" Wang Liang asked.

"People's hearts have been prepared for a long time. What is waiting now is technology. I am not an expert in research and development. Maybe next year, maybe 30 years." Lu Ling said nonsense.

"It doesn't matter. I will report this to the leader. There is nothing secret about today's conversation, but after today, everything we do will be confidential."

"Understood." Lu Ling nodded.

"Then, happy New Year 2023!"

"Happy New Year!"
