Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 176 Commendation Conference
Let’s not talk too much, time passes quickly.

A week later, the provincial department held its year-end commendation conference.

Luo Rui won the first-class individual merit and the second-class collective merit, and Chen Hao also won the second-class individual merit.

Before this, Chen Hao had won the second-class merit many times, so he was no longer sensitive to these honors.

The two were prominent figures at this commendation conference. They spoke on the stage for a full half hour, detailing the process of solving a major robbery and murder case across the two cities.

As for the bonus, it is not much for Luo Rui. What is important is the honor, which is incomparable.

Future generations can get extra points in the college entrance examination!

Especially in Linjiang City Police Department, almost every criminal police officer was awarded a medal, and even Yang Xiaorui wore a big red flower.

But unfortunately, Hu Changyu did not show up, and the team led by Wan Mingxia from Linjiang City Police Station.

The Haijiang Branch was also commended for solving the Zhu Lizhi case and the Guo Yun murder case. As the deputy captain of the criminal police team and a policewoman, Cai Xiaojing naturally attracted a lot of attention.

If we have to say who is the most aggrieved, it would be Wu Dahao.

In the past year, although the Guangxing Municipal Public Security Bureau has solved many cases, the difficulty of solving them is not great. Therefore, the municipal police led by Wu Dahao rushed to participate in solving murder and robbery cases, but in the end, due to various reasons, they did not get any credit.

As soon as the commendation meeting ended, Luo Rui was called to Zhu Yong’s office.

He thought Zhu Yong just wanted to chat with him, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw several big men sitting in the office.

In addition to Zhu Yong, there were also Wu Chaoxiong, a big shot from the provincial department, Wei Qunshan from the Haijiang branch, and the anti-drug captain of the municipal bureau.

Luo Rui had just met this man, the first-class merit winner, Liao Kang!

Because drug enforcement police are in a special position, many of their cases cannot be made public. Although he made the greatest contribution in this commendation meeting, he did not say a few words. He just said thank you and walked off the stage.

But no one can underestimate this person. The medal of honor for a drug enforcement police officer is really earned by risking his life!

Liao Kang is 1.8 meters tall, with a strong build and a serious demeanor.

He did not graduate from a police academy, but was transferred from the army. However, it cannot be said that he has no academic qualifications. On the contrary, he has a high level of academic qualifications.

Seeing Luo Rui, Liao Kang stood up and extended his hand enthusiastically.

"Team Leader Luo, nice to meet you!"

"Hello, Captain Liao." Luo Rui shook hands with him, and at Zhu Yong's signal, the two of them sat down.

Wu Chaoxiong did not receive this group of people in his office, but everyone took the lead under him.

He glanced at Luo Rui and asked, "Xiao Luo, I heard that you are a senior now?"

Luo Rui touched his nose awkwardly and coughed twice: "This is all because of the kindness of the school leaders, Director Wu, and Captain Zhu!"

"We have all seen what you have done. This is what you deserve, but..."

This "but" made Luo Rui straighten his back quickly and prepare to accept criticism.

Wu Chaoxiong smiled and said, "This is also our fault. After all, you missed your studies because you helped us solve so many cases. As a result, your test scores were not good and you failed every course, right?"

Luo Rui wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Shameless!
Although his face was red, he still answered loudly: "Yes, Director Wu."

"Education is still very important, and the test results will affect your future career. Principal Tan even called me to talk about this. For your future, you should prepare for the make-up exam when school starts next semester and try to get a passing score, so that no one can find fault with you in the future!"

Luo Rui opened his eyes wide: "Make-up exam?"

Wu Chaoxiong looked at him: "Why? Don't you want to?"

Luo Rui quickly shook his head: "No, I am willing, but I am afraid..."

"There's still a month left before school starts. You're so smart, I don't believe you can't handle it. Besides, you've solved so many cases, and combined with your practical experience, you'll definitely get a passing grade! And not only that, you'll be a senior next semester, and I hope you can use these six months to complete your entire college studies!"

These words frightened Luo Rui directly. No matter how smart or awesome he was, he couldn't learn everything he learned in four years of college!

Seeing him stunned, Zhu Yong took over the conversation: "Find someone to help, spend some money, hire a few professors, you can still afford the money."

Luo Rui sighed: "But...I..."

Wu Chaoxiong waved his hand: "No buts, we hope you can graduate from school early, join our police force and serve the people! But on the other hand, we are afraid of delaying you, so for your future, you'd better show this perseverance.

You know, things are different now than they were before. It’s been seven or eight years since the beginning of the new century, and it’s very different from the 1990s. What’s important now is academic qualifications and qualifications.”

"Okay, I'll give it a try!"

Luo Rui didn't expect this to happen. At this point, he had no choice but to agree to it. After all, with Wu Chaoxiong's status and position, he was so considerate of him and said these words personally. How could he refuse the other party's kindness?

It seems that this year has not been smooth.

Seeing that Luo Rui had a positive attitude and did not refuse, Wu Chaoxiong nodded with satisfaction.

He stood up and said to everyone, "I have something else to do, you guys continue chatting."

Seeing Wu Chaoxiong leaving, everyone present stood up to see him off.

After the boss left, the atmosphere in the office immediately became relaxed.

Zhu Yong has a very easy-going personality and never puts himself on airs.

He pointed at Liao Kang and said, "Luo Rui, I asked you to come here. In addition to what Director Wu said, there is one more thing. I need you to step up your training."

Luo Ruiwan didn't expect that there would be something waiting for him later.

He glanced at Wei Qunshan. This old fox didn't say a word from beginning to end, but there was a sly smile on his face.

Luo Rui suddenly felt a little regretful for coming here to accept the commendation. It was a good thing, but it was a trap!

"Captain Zhu, please give me instructions if I have anything to say."

Zhu Yong pondered and said, "Some time ago, you were tied up on a boat by those criminals. With your own strength, you overturned a whole boat of people. This is really shocking. In our police system, there are very few criminal police with your close combat ability, so many people are vying for you..."

Luo Rui quickly expressed his loyalty: "My ambition is to be a criminal policeman like you and Director Wei. I don't have any other ideas!"

Wei Qunshan laughed: "Haha..."

Zhu Yong touched his nose and said, "Let's not talk about this. What I'm talking about is that the provincial department simulated the scene at that time. Although you only took half an hour to subdue these people, your shooting skills were really terrible!"

Unexpectedly, Liao Kang, who had been silent the whole time, echoed: "It's really bad!"

"Uh..." Luo Rui touched his nose.

Liao Kang then said, "Captain Luo, I have also seen the simulation video. I don't deny that your fighting skills are very strong, but some of the best special forces can kill everyone in ten minutes when faced with a situation like yours!"

The more Luo Rui listened, the more confused he became. He had no idea what these people were trying to say.

Can I compare with the best in the special forces? They risk their lives for training.

"You mean with a gun?"

Liao Kang nodded: "Not bad."

Zhu Yong took over the conversation: "So I asked you to come here, in addition to your studies, Captain Liao will teach you how to shoot in the next few months."

Luo Rui was startled: "Teach me how to shoot?"

Liao Kang said: "Don't worry, I have won several provincial shooting championships, I will definitely be able to teach you well."

At this point, no matter how stupid Luo Rui was, he understood some things.

When it comes to school grades, we can say that they are just thinking about themselves, but it is hard not to be suspicious when they intensify their shooting training for no reason!
There must be something fishy going on here. Is there a mission?
He looked at Wei Qunshan again, but the old fox was still smiling, and there was nothing unusual in his expression.

He wanted to be his dagger, and Luo Rui had a rough idea of ​​where to stab.

But the incident happened suddenly, and Luo Rui became more and more unsure.

Zhu Yong frowned: "Why? You don't want to?"

Luo Rui had no choice. He was already on the boat. If he jumped into the water, he would drown.

He had no choice but to agree again.

Seeing this, Zhu Yong and Wei Qunshan looked at each other, and then immediately looked away after a brief contact of gaze.

Liao Kang said: "Team Leader Luo, our provincial department has a training ground in the suburbs. We will meet there every Friday and Sunday at 6 o'clock in the evening. What do you think?"

"Okay, Captain Liao, please give me more advice in the future!"

"I don't deserve it, but there is one more thing I need to tell you. This training will cost money. After all, bullets cost money."

Luo Rui nodded hurriedly: "I understand, I'll pay for the bullets, and I'll also pay for Captain Liao's tuition."

Liao Kang quickly waved his hand: "No, Team Leader Luo, that's not what I meant. I'm doing it for free. We are all in the same system, there's no need to be so polite. I may need your help in the future."

Luo Rui straightened his attitude and said, "That won't work. Captain Liao took the time to help me, so I have to repay you no matter what. If you need me in the future, just ask!"

Liao Kang did not refuse and grinned.

After chatting for a while, Luo Rui and Liao Kang left.

Zhu Yong and Wei Qunshan were the only ones left in the office, and their expressions suddenly turned serious.

After a moment of silence, Wei Qunshan whispered, "Captain Zhu, do you really want Chen Hao to do it?"

Zhu Yong sighed, "There's nothing we can do. The reason why Wan Mingxia was transferred to Linjiang City was because it would be convenient for Chen Hao to do it. In addition, he has a high reputation in the police station, so only he can get it done."

Wei Qunshan frowned and said, "But you also know the situation of his family. His mother-in-law is seriously ill, his wife is out of work, and the whole family depends on him for support. If something happens to him..."

Zhu Yong sighed: "Except for him, there is no other good candidate. After all, Linjiang City is the top priority, and it is the only entry point!"

After saying that, Zhu Yong stood up and said, "Let's go."

Wei Qunshan also stood up, and the two of them left the office and walked to the office at the end of the corridor.

Zhu Yong knocked on the door, heard "Come in", and gently pushed the door open.

Chen Hao was already sitting on the sofa in the reception room, and Wu Chaoxiong was standing by the window with a solemn expression.

After the two entered, they quickly closed the door.

Wu Chaoxiong said nothing. He walked around the desk, dialed a number on the red telephone, and turned on the speakerphone.

Soon, a deep and strong voice sounded on the phone: "This reopened investigation involves many aspects, and it is risky, time-consuming, and tight. It must be kept secret. Once we find definite clues, we will arrange for a special task force to come..."

……

Luo Rui waited for a long time on the first floor before Chen Hao finally came down.

The two had no time to chat at the commendation meeting, only eye contact.

"Captain Chen, what took you so long? Did Director Wu come looking for you?"

Chen Hao covered it up and said, "It's just some official business."

Luo Rui didn't care and asked, "Shall we find a place to sit?"

Chen Hao refused: "No, I have to go back soon. It's the end of the year and there are still many things waiting to be dealt with in the team."

"Okay, I'll just chat for a few minutes."

Luo Rui pulled Chen Hao to an inconspicuous corner and said mysteriously: "Well, I have a way to make a fortune..."

Chen Hao immediately interrupted the conversation: "Luo Rui, we police officers cannot do business."

"I'm not doing business. It's like this. I'm very optimistic about a few stocks. They will definitely rise in a few months..."

Chen Hao immediately said: "I don't have any money."

Luo Rui pointed to the worn briefcase under his armpit and said, "Didn't you just get your bonus? Nearly ten thousand."

Chen Hao exhaled: "Luo Rui, I really have no money, I need this money urgently..."

Luo Rui frowned. It seemed that Chen Hao was not in financial difficulty as Cai Xiaojing said, but was really poor.

Except for his police uniform which was neatly arranged, all his other clothes were old.

If he hadn't known about Chen Hao's family affairs, Luo Rui would have thought that he was just unkempt and didn't pay attention to details.

"How about this, you give me your ID card, I'll open a few accounts for you, and I'll lend you money, is that okay? If you make a profit, it's yours, and if you lose money, you pay me back later?" At this time, Chen Hao had already realized that something was wrong. He looked at Luo Rui's eyes and remained silent for a long time.

Luo Rui felt guilty and quickly looked away.

"Has anyone told you about my family situation?"

Luo Rui blinked immediately: "What's going on? What's going on at home?"

Chen Hao sighed and pursed his lips. He took out a crumpled Hongmei cigarette from his briefcase. Seeing that there was only one left, he held back and put it back in his bag.

"Luo Rui, stop pretending. Someone must have told you about my situation. I appreciate your kindness. But that's it. The team still has a lot of things to deal with, so I'll leave first!"

After saying this, Chen Hao immediately walked out of the building.

He walked quickly, and when Luo Rui chased him out, he had already walked down the stairs.

Luo Rui quickly followed him and stopped him.

"Chen Hao, stop!"

Luo Rui had never been so angry before, and had never yelled at Chen Hao before, but this time, he couldn't help it.

"Is there anyone as selfish as you?"

Chen Hao looked at him in surprise: "I am selfish?"

Luo Rui nodded: "Yes, I heard about you and sister-in-law. You waited for her for eleven years and helped her support her seriously ill mother! You shouldered all these by yourself! But have you ever thought about it? If you want them to live a stable life, you need money, a lot of money!"

Chen Hao frowned and pushed him away.

"I don't need it. I'm not a policeman for money!"

Luo Rui took a few steps back and continued to stop him.

"Does being a policeman mean you deserve to be poor? Don't you think about yourself? You should think about your sister-in-law and Chen Ma. Chen Ma is going to be in the third grade of junior high school, right? With a mother like this, can he pass the civil service exam in the future? Can he be a policeman like you, or become a teacher?
He can't do it, he doesn't have this opportunity! If you don't give him good educational resources, he will fall behind!"

Chen Hao didn't listen to the advice at all. He continued to block Luo Rui away, opened the car door, and prepared to get in the car.

"I've thought about this a long time ago. Chen Ma will have his own life in the future. Even if he can't be a policeman or a teacher, it won't stop him from being a good person!"

Luo Rui held the car door tightly and angrily said to Chen Hao: "Okay, what if you died? We just attended the funerals of Li Xueming and Uncle Wei, and the medals at the commendation ceremony were all received by their children!
You should know that no one knows when an accident will happen!

I'm telling you, Chen Hao! I'm going to be a criminal police officer in the future, just like you, to catch criminals and send the most vicious people to jail!

But before that, I will definitely ensure the well-being of my family! They can’t die because of me!"

Suddenly, Chen Hao was shocked by these words.

He stared at Luo Rui blankly without any movement of his body.

Luo Rui struck while the iron was hot: "It's just stock trading, it's not illegal, it doesn't violate the principle! I've already said, if you lose, it's on me! Just give me your ID card, don't worry about anything else! Can you trust me?"

Chen Hao swallowed, lowered his head, and recalled the secret conversation in Wu Chaoxiong's office ten minutes ago.

Indeed, life and death may be just a matter of one day.

If you really sacrifice yourself, that's fine, the pension can also allow your family to live a good life.

But if you are splashed with dirty water, your whole family will be in dire straits!

Chen Hao exhaled deeply, opened his briefcase, and handed a stack of newly-issued bonuses and his ID card to Luo Rui.

"That's all the money I have, and I'm going to take it home to give to your sister-in-law!"

Luo Rui felt a lump in his throat and took the bank card.

"I don't want the money yet, you can pay me back later!"

Chen Hao immediately refused: "No, you must take the money! Otherwise, I won't agree!"

After Luo Rui took the money, he took out half and handed it back to him.

"It won't take that much. Five thousand is enough! What if I lose money?"

He definitely won't pay compensation. What he wants is Chen Hao's ID card, so that he can use the money to help him later.

But if the other party didn't want the money given by Chen Hao, he would definitely refuse, so he could only think of this solution.

Besides, it’s almost the end of the year, and everyone wants to have a good year. If all the money is taken away, Chen Hao’s family will not have a good year.

After Chen Hao took it, he smiled and said, "I believe you. You are so smart, how could you lose? Okay, I really have to go!"

"Just wait a minute!"

Luo Rui called him and immediately ran to his BMW and took out a cardboard box from the trunk.

"Hey, open the trunk!"

Chen Hao frowned: "What are these?"

Luo Rui said helplessly: "My father-in-law has a lot of social engagements, and the cigarettes and alcohol are piled up all over the house. My mother-in-law doesn't want him to touch these things, so she asked me to throw them away. I kept them in the car, ready to throw them away one day. I happened to meet you today, so I gave them all to you."

Without waiting for Chen Hao to refuse, Luo Rui opened the car door and threw the cardboard box into Chen Hao's car.

"Okay, let's go. Just wait for my good news. I will definitely help you make money!"

Luo Rui waved to him and quickly returned to his car. He started the car and prepared to drive away.

Chen Hao felt very uncomfortable.

"Luo Rui!"

Luo Rui stepped on the brakes.

Chen Hao grinned: "Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year, Captain Chen!"

After Luo Rui left, Chen Hao opened the cardboard box in the back seat.

These are not things that are going to be thrown away. They are full of Zhonghua cigarettes, more than a dozen cartons, and two bottles of Maotai with iron caps.

Not only that, there was also a pair of brand new expensive sneakers and cosmetics for his wife.

Chen Hao shook his head and cursed, "This brat!"

……

Luo Rui did not have a good year. Except for having a New Year's Eve dinner at home, he spent the rest of the time at school and at the shooting range in the suburbs.

Many times, I didn’t even have time to go home for dinner. I went home to sleep, and went to school before dawn the next day.

Luo Rui spent a lot of money to hire several professors to help him catch up with his studies.

Because it was during the Spring Festival and the professor's rest was interrupted, Luo Rui paid a lot of money.

Don't think that these professors have high positions and good social status. They are really short of money. They all live in faculty dormitories and don't even have houses in Guangxing City.

A cool teacher like Li Mubai still lives in the staff dormitory.

Luo Rui did not hire him. After all, there was a rift between the two of them that could not be resolved in a short time.

They had agreed to go to the shooting range twice a week to learn shooting skills with Liao Kang, but the more Luo Rui learned, the more motivated he became, and he begged Liao Kang to meet him at the shooting range on time at six o'clock every night.

Liao Kang really wanted to refuse. After all, as a drug enforcement officer, the only time he could spend time with his family was during the Spring Festival.

But he couldn't resist Luo Rui's ability to spend money. On New Year's Eve, Luo Rui knocked on his door. He didn't know how this guy found out his address.

The gifts that Luo Rui brought filled the whole room. Not to mention, this kid was very cunning. He even took out two travel packages and gave them to Liao Kang's wife, asking him to take the children to travel to Sanya during the Spring Festival.

Food, accommodation and transportation are included, so you don’t have to spend a penny.

But there are only two tickets, and they are time-limited.

Liao Kang's wife had no choice but to give up her husband and leave him behind. She took her children and flew to Sanya to relax.

Liao Kang was so sad that he had no choice but to accompany Luo Rui to the shooting range every night to practice shooting.

However, Luo Rui was very generous and treated Liao Kang to a lot of delicious food and drinks.

In addition, Luo Rui made rapid progress. It only took him one month to go from having a glimpse of the basics to becoming an expert.

He became more and more familiar with various police firearms, and even his ability to assemble firearms became faster and faster.

This greatly surprised Liao Kang, so he taught more enthusiastically as time went on. After all, meeting a talented student is more difficult than finding a good teacher.

Liao Kang also taught Luo Rui how to change magazines with one hand, which he had learned in the army.

The Spring Festival passed quickly, Liao Kang returned to his job and could no longer help Luo Rui.

But he himself did not stop. He worked between school and shooting range every day without a single day of rest.

Mo Wanqiu complained bitterly, feeling that being alone was boring. She pulled Luo Rui aside and said that her clams had opened and were about to spit out pearls, but Luo Rui ignored her.

She insisted, smiling, "Look, I can roll my tongue... and I can even hold a candle..."

Luo Rui still ignored her!

Haha, women will only slow down his speed in drawing his gun!

……

Late one night in February, Guangxing City Public Security Bureau.

Winter was not over yet and there was a light snow that day.

The road was covered with snow that had not yet been cleared, the temperature dropped sharply, and the evergreen plants in the city bureau's flower beds were frozen.

After Wu Dahao came out of the bureau, he took a breath of cold air and his body couldn't help but shiver twice.

Because Guangxing City Bureau was outshined by Linjiang City Bureau last year, he felt very frustrated, so at the beginning of the year, the bureau launched a massive training and study. Since there were no new cases, they would take out the old backlog cases and re-investigate them.

Although there are no major cases, we must strive to be the number one in crime-solving rate this year and cannot be outdone by the Linjiang City Police Station.

Not only that, even the Haijiang Branch had a higher crime-solving rate than the Municipal Bureau, which made Cao Hua and Wu Dahao very embarrassed.

Wu Dahao was also busy until 11 o'clock in the evening before he got off work. At this time, it was pitch black outside, with only the dim light of the street lamps.

Most of his colleagues have gone off work, and he is the only one who has been working overtime until now.

He put one hand in his jacket pocket, held his briefcase in the other, and walked towards the door.

There is a shared parking lot to the left of the police station gate, where his car is parked.

As you pass the side of the building, there is a green trash can with a mailbox above it.

It says on the mailbox: Report and complaint mailbox.

But everyone knows that no one will open this thing and take a look at it for a month or two.

What’s worse, some leaders even want to install a surveillance camera on their mailboxes to prevent… (omitted here)

Wu Dahao shrank his neck and passed by the trash can.

After getting in the car, he drove out of the parking lot and passed through the police station gate.

But at this moment, he saw through the turning mirror that a man put a letter into the mailbox.

The man had a plush hat on his head and a scarf around his neck, so his face couldn't be seen clearly.

The security room of the police station was right next to it and there were police officers on duty, but this man was behind the police officer, so he didn't notice him.

The man dropped the letter, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

Wu Dahao blinked and ignored him.

I have already said that no one will open this mailbox for a month, and Wu Dahao is too lazy to take care of it.
