I am a super cop

Chapter 1136 The Birthday in the Corner
"Ah?" After being said by Gu Chen, Lu Weiwei remembered the vow she made this summer.

But now that I think about it, it's kind of embarrassing.

He Junchao smiled teasingly: "I also remember that, almost everyone in the office heard it at that time, right?"

"Haha." Hearing that Gu Chen was talking to He Junchao, Police Officer Wang said with a smile, "But you, Lu Weiwei, didn't realize until now that you were too young to make such a beautiful promise."

"Let me tell you, Lu Weiwei, in the south without heating, the happiest moment for you after a busy day is when you return home, take off your clothes and pants, and immediately get into the warm bed."

"Then wrap yourself tightly with a quilt, but at this moment you suddenly realize, damn, the lights are on."

"Haha, old Wang, you are poisonous." Lu Weiwei raised her fist and slammed Police Officer Wang's back.

After all, some new northern friends can't understand how cold the southern friends get up.

In winter in the north, the outside drips into ice, but the temperature inside the house is midsummer.

Therefore, many police officers believe that heating is the factor that affects the unity of the people in the north and the south.

After applying the hand cream, everyone started to work again for a day.

Gu Chen wanted to organize the files into a book and hand them over to Zhao Guozhi for reference.

However, after reading Gu Chen's closing report, Zhao Guozhi was quite satisfied.

You know, cases spanning 20 years are quite tricky to deal with.

This time handing over this case to Gu Chen gave Zhao Guozhi a headache too.

But after all, it was the meaning of the assignment from above, so I couldn't accept it myself.

I originally thought that the case would take a lot of time to solve, but I never thought that Gu Chen led the criminal investigation team to search for clues across multiple regions and visit the parties in a very short period of time.

It can be said that this case was solved partly due to luck, but more due to the efforts of Gu Chen's team.

Especially when the finger and palm print information database was perfected, the parties who left the finger and palm prints on the tape back then were found.

But it all depends on human effort, and the detection of some cases often requires a little bit of luck.

"Good job." After Zhao Guozhi checked the file, he closed the file and said with emotion: "I originally entrusted this case to you to handle, but I was a little worried at first."

"But now it seems that the speed of solving the case has far exceeded expectations, and you are better than I thought."

"Thanks to the full cooperation of Liu's forensic team, we were able to find flaws in the fingerprint samples that have been silent for many years." Gu Chen also didn't want to be greedy for credit.

This time the case was solved, and Liu's forensic team played a very important role.

Zhao Guozhi nodded in satisfaction, and also smiled slightly: "In short, this case also reminded us that no matter how long it takes, we should not give up our efforts to track down the murderer."

"If we choose to give up after 20 years of investigation, it means that 20 years of hard work will be in vain."

"But one day, the god of luck may come to us, and this case will turn around, and we will be able to seek justice for the families of the victims."

"That's right." Listening to Zhao Guozhi's words, Gu Chen felt the same way.

Especially when I personally visited the families of the victims, I really felt that life was not easy.

After all, the tragedy that year directly led to the destruction of a happy family.

Over the past 20 years, relatives and friends have been immersed in incomparable grief and indignation.

Even questioned the work of the police.

These were deeply touched by Gu Chen during the visit.

Fortunately, the case was successfully solved in the end, and the murderer who killed the black car driver Lu Jun was also captured by the police one by one.

It can be said that it can be regarded as an explanation to the family members of the deceased.

Gu Chen, who had been in Zhao Guozhi's office for a long time, returned to the criminal investigation team after listening to Zhao Guozhi's teaching, and passed Zhao Guozhi's original words to the three teams, so that everyone could understand the spirit and make persistent efforts.

……

……

After get off work in the afternoon.

As usual, everyone packed up their work and prepared to go to the cafeteria for dinner.

But at this time, the sky gradually began to rain and sleet.

Seeing the sudden surprise, everyone was immediately pleasantly surprised.

Everyone is lying on the windowsill.

Many southern police officers rushed directly into the playground, feeling the joy brought by the sleet.

Seeing this scene, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but clicked his tongue twice: "Poor southern child, it's just sleet, and it's covered with water."

"But you have to understand the happiness of southerners when they see snow falling." He Junchao rushed into the playground like a child, feeling the happiness brought by the sleet with several police officers.

Seeing this, Lu Weiwei suddenly stopped Gu Chen, Yuan Shasha and Police Officer Wang.

"You guys wait a minute."

"What's wrong?" Gu Chen turned his head and asked.

Lu Weiwei smiled lightly and said, "Anyway, you don't have to work overtime at night, and it's snowing today, how about going to have a hot pot together?"

"Eh? Good idea." Yuan Shasha immediately agreed upon hearing this: "It's really nice to have a hot pot meal in such a cold day. Brother Gu, Brother Wang, let's go together?"

Officer Wang glanced at Gu Chen and asked, "Gu Chen, what do you think?"

"I don't care, but I need to change my clothes first." Gu Chen said.

Without saying a word, Lu Weiwei grabbed Gu Chen's arm and ran towards the dormitory, saying as she ran, "Then what are you waiting for? Change clothes quickly."

After a while, everyone changed into casual clothes, brought umbrellas, and prepared to take a car to the shopping district to eat hot pot together.

Lu Weiwei deliberately played a trick and didn't bring her own umbrella.

In this way, three umbrellas, four people.

Officer Wang asked curiously, "Lu Weiwei, where's your umbrella?"

"It's broken." Lu Weiwei said.

Officer Wang frowned: "But I saw your umbrella the day before yesterday."

"It broke yesterday." Lu Weiwei said again.

Police officer Wang smiled lightly, and said indifferently: "Anyway, Gu Chen will drive later, and there is no need for it."

"What kind of car are you driving?" Lu Weiwei immediately vetoed it when she heard the words: "I know that there is a good hot pot restaurant. The decoration style is decorated according to the old Jiangnan city's strong sense of time. It is also an Internet celebrity. As for the check-in place, it’s not far from our branch office, just two blocks away.”

Looking up at the sleet that kept falling in the sky, Lu Weiwei said again: "Don't you think it's romantic to walk on the street with an umbrella in this weather?"

"Romantic ghost, I'm so cold." Police officer Wang shrank his neck, and said with some resistance: "Walking outside in this cold weather, if you don't chill, I will chill."

"It'll get hot after a walk, shall we go for a walk?" Lu Weiwei looked at Gu Chen expectantly.

Gu Chen nodded silently: "Listen to Senior Sister Lu."

"Okay, hurry up." Lu Weiwei opened Gu Chen's umbrella, and hugged Gu Chen together.

Officer Wang took a look and immediately understood the meaning.

Xin said that this is your real purpose, Lu Weiwei, right?
Several people were talking and laughing as they walked on the road together.

The pedestrians on the street are busy, and everyone is extra excited because of the sleet.

You must know that the lack of snow in Jiangnan City these years depends entirely on God's will, and it is normal for there to be no snow all year round.

But in Gu Chen's impression, Jiangnan City when he was a child, it snowed every year.

Following Lu Weiwei's guidance, everyone came to the door of a hot pot restaurant.

Lu Weiwei pointed to the door and said, "That's right here. It's newly opened, and the area is quite large."

"That's it?" Looking at such a small storefront, Police Officer Wang couldn't believe it: "How big is the storefront with such a small storefront?"

"Speaking of you, the old man? You still don't admit it, but you will know it after entering the door. This is the decoration style of others, do you understand?"

Instigated by Lu Weiwei, everyone walked into this hot pot restaurant.

Just like what Lu Weiwei said, when you enter through the small door, there is something hidden inside.

Officer Wang, who just walked in the door, almost thought he had time traveled to decades ago.

All the decorations here are three-dimensional and realistic, and all the wooden tables are very retro, including old photos and small ornaments.

The dining tables inside do not have a uniform style, they are all arranged according to the scene.

At first glance, I thought I came to the old city of Jiangnan decades ago.

A waitress in retro work clothes came over and asked, "How many people?"

"Four." Gu Chen stretched out four fingers.

The waitress looked around, but she was a little embarrassed.

After all, it was the peak dining period, and there was a serious shortage of seats.

Since no suitable seat was found, the waitress said with some embarrassment: "Because there are not enough tables, can you wait?"

"Ah? Still waiting? Let's change one for another." As soon as he heard that there were no vacant seats, Officer Wang turned around and left.

However, she was grabbed by Lu Weiwei, and said angrily: "This is an online celebrity shop, it's normal that there are no vacancies for a while, so what's the matter if you wait? It's not too late."

After looking around for a week, Lu Weiwei said again: "Besides, of course I came here to take pictures, so it's good to visit around first to pass the time."

"That's right." The waitress heard Lu Weiwei speaking for her hot pot restaurant, and responded with a smile: "This is an online celebrity restaurant, and you can take pictures in every area, and the decorations are different from every angle."

"You can sit on the second floor first, there are some empty seats over there."

"That's fine." Seeing everyone's insistence, Officer Wang didn't want to dampen Lu Weiwei's interest, so he agreed, "Let's wait on the second floor."

Several people talked and laughed, and walked up the retro stairs to the second floor.

The decoration on the second floor is also very old-fashioned. There are several benches around, and several young couples are already waiting there.

Looking down from the promenade on the second floor, it looks like a large courtyard, integrated with the environment, full of human fireworks.

Looking at the various slogans with a sense of age on the wall, Lu Weiwei couldn't help feeling: "It seems that our Chinese characters are really broad and profound, and the same characters can express the same meaning in many different ways. "

"That's up to you to say?" Police officer Wang was also visiting, he found a long wooden bench and sat down first, and he also talked eloquently: "For example, I don't want to play anymore, and if I don't want to play, I feel a little bit like me. "

"I don't want to play anymore, I don't want to play, I don't want to play."

"I don't want to play with me anymore, I don't want to play with me anymore, is there anything wrong? There is no flaw."

"Are you talking about words?" Gu Chen looked at the slogans in the corridor opposite, and smiled teasingly.

Yuan Shasha said: "If we want to say that the Chinese language is extensive and profound, there are also many sayings that make us in a dilemma. For example, as the saying goes, a good man has three gangs, but as the saying goes, when high-rise buildings rise from the ground, it is better to rely on yourself." .”

"As the saying goes, if you marry a chicken, you will marry a dog, but as the saying goes, a man is afraid of entering the wrong profession, and a woman is afraid of marrying the wrong man."

"As the saying goes, a man can bend and stretch, but as the saying goes, a man would rather die than submit."

"Tsk." Hearing the words, Police Officer Wang also sank into it and said: "There is also a saying that there is no limit to the sea of ​​suffering, but there is no turning back."

"As the saying goes, a good horse never turns back, but there's also a saying that a prodigal son won't change his money when he turns back." Lu Weiwei also continued to add.

Gu Chen smiled lightly: "That's why if you shoot the first bird, you will be beaten if you fall behind. It means that if a person wants to beat you, he can always find a reason."

"Haha, Junior Brother Gu, you are poisonous." Lu Weiwei was so amused by Gu Chen, but at the same time that she burst into tears, she found that not far from her, a woman was sitting there on a two-person seat, crying silently. There is also a small cake on the table.

"Hey!" Lu Weiwei touched Gu Chen's shoulder with her arm, and signaled with her eyes: "Did you see that? That woman seems to be crying."

"Where is it?" Hearing Lu Weiwei's words, Officer Wang quickly turned his head to look.

At this moment, everyone realized that a woman in her 20s was sitting alone in a corner, with big tears constantly falling down.

In front of her was a small cake, and some unlit candles were scattered on the table.

"Is that person celebrating his birthday?" Yuan Shasha said.

"But why alone?" Lu Weiwei felt a little puzzled.

Officer Wang smiled lightly: "It's not a big deal. It's not that no one celebrates her birthday. These days, everyone is a worker. How many people have time to celebrate their birthday when they are away from home?"

Lu Weiwei felt that the situation was not right, so she suggested, "Why don't you go and have a look?"

"Go to you, I'm staring at the empty seat." Officer Wang raised his legs and continued to look at the seat downstairs.

Officer Wang is ready to occupy a seat as soon as there is a vacancy.

I don't want to just check in for photos here and ignore my stomach's feelings.

After all, for young people, coming here to eat is purely for taking pictures of places, and for myself, it is purely to fill their stomachs.

Everyone comes here for different purposes.

"I'll go take a look with you." Seeing Lu Weiwei get up, Gu Chen prepared to go over to see the situation.

"Then I'll go too." Seeing that both of them had got up, Yuan Shasha followed behind.

Several people brought two long wooden benches and sat next to the woman at the table for two.

When the woman raised her head, she was also taken aback suddenly.

Seeing the three of them staring straight at her, the woman looked puzzled.

"you……"

"My name is Lu Weiwei, this is Gu Chen, this is Yuan Shasha, we see you crying here, do you need our help?"

Lu Weiwei took advantage of her characteristics as an enthusiastic policewoman, and also wanted to know the situation of the woman.

The woman wiped her tears and said with a wry smile, "I'm just homesick. Every birthday, I have my family by my side, but this year there is only one person."

"I wanted to make my birthday more ceremonial, so I bought a cake myself and wanted to come here to celebrate my birthday."

"Then why are you crying?" Lu Weiwei asked.

The woman wiped the teardrops from the corners of her eyes, and said with a wry smile: "Later, I received my mother's blessing text message, and I felt it, and the tears fell down uncontrollably."

Hearing the woman's speech, Gu Chen secretly glanced at the woman's cell phone.

In the dialog box at this time, there is a text message from the girl's mother.

[Today is your lunar birthday, mom wishes you a happy birthday. 】

Although it was just a simple message of blessing, the screen was already filled with the woman's tears.

Gu Chen asked her: "You just graduated?"

The woman nodded silently: "Not long after graduation, she is currently working in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital."

"No wonder." Hearing the woman's words, Gu Chen also smiled and said, "Maybe it's because you just left the campus and started working, and you haven't changed your role from the state of the ivory tower. Suddenly celebrating your birthday alone, it's just a little sad."

"En." Hearing Gu Chen's words, the woman also nodded silently: "That's right, in the past on campus, every birthday, some good sisters in the dormitory would stay with me."

"But this year, everyone went their separate ways and no one was by my side."

"If there is any difference in birthdays after the age of 20, it is that it is better not to have a birthday, but to feel that even the air is bleak."

"Poverty or widowhood, most people in their twenties are more or less the same, or both, and I am the latter."

After hearing the woman's narration, Gu Chen also said calmly: "You are right, but birthdays, which have special meaning to individuals, will magnify your loneliness and helplessness."

Glancing at the woman's cell phone, Gu Chen said again: "Especially the SMS blessing from your mother may have stimulated your fragile nerves. You may be too tired from work and think too much."

"Yeah." The woman nodded silently: "I'm so tired, really tired."

"It's okay to be tired. It's always like this when I first started working. I also came here like this." Lu Weiwei imparted her experience with great interest.

The woman coughed dryly twice, and said again: "The throat started to hurt two days ago, and I should be left alone to work overtime in the office tomorrow night."

"Every time I watch movies on my mobile phone during the night shift, do I feel that life will always be difficult? Or is it just like childhood?"

"Uh..." Gu Chen hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It seems to be like this forever."

The woman glanced at Gu Chen and said, "I suddenly want to ask my 30-year-old self, do we often feel lonely and unhappy only when we are 20? Or has it always been like this?"

"I always feel that I haven't adapted to the growth after the age of 20, just like I was a child yesterday, but after I turned 18, I turned into an adult in an instant."

Sniffing, the woman said again: "I didn't even realize it, and the people around me became another group of people who were far from my life state."

"Judging from the circle of friends, it seems that everyone is living a good life and earning a lot of money, but I am still floating in the status of an ordinary person in society. It is hard not to be anxious and confused, and wonder if I should also run faster. Step, prepare for the next itinerary? Or... make some decisions."
