Solving the case: Combining the police dog's olfactory genes at the beginning

"Luo Fei!"

Chen Xuanran finally found his voice and stumbled towards the middle of the road.

Luo Fei lay in a pool of blood, a dark red pool of blood already accumulated under the back of his head.

His eyes were half-open, and his lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something.

"Don't move! Don't move!"

Chen Xuanran knelt beside him, her hands trembling as she dared not touch him.

"Ambulance! Call an ambulance!"

People around had already called 120 (emergency services), and some took off their coats to try to stop Luo Fei's bleeding.

Chen Xuanran's world consisted only of the increasingly pale face before her. She held Luo Fei's hand, feeling the warmth slowly draining away.

"Please hang in there, please!"

Tears blurred her vision.

"Luo Fei, look at me, don't fall asleep."

Luo Fei's lips moved again, but in the end no sound came out.

His eyes slowly closed, and his hand slipped from Chen Xuanran's grasp.

"no, do not want!"

Chen Xuanran screamed uncontrollably.

The piercing siren grew louder as the ambulance finally arrived.

Medical staff quickly lifted Luo Fei onto a stretcher, and Chen Xuanran followed him into the ambulance like a walking corpse.

"The patient has suffered severe head injury and their blood pressure continues to drop!"

The medical staff shouted as they performed emergency treatment.

Chen Xuanran sat in the corner, his hands clenched tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms.

She couldn't hear any sound, only the busy figures of medical staff and the constantly flashing lights of medical equipment.

The ambulance arrived at Jiangcheng City First People's Hospital quickly, its siren blaring.

Luo Fei was rushed into the emergency center. Chen Xuanran wanted to follow, but was stopped by the nurses.

"Family members please wait outside!"

The nurse said sternly.

Chen Xuanran's legs went weak, and he knelt down on the ground.

Her phone slid out of her pocket, the screen lit up, showing more than a dozen missed calls. They were all from Chen Hao and her parents.

With trembling hands, she dialed Chen Hao's number. She had barely uttered the words, "Sister, Luo Fei is in trouble," when she could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

Less than half an hour later, Chen's parents and Chen Hao arrived at the hospital.

As soon as Chen Hao saw her sister, she rushed over and hugged her.

"What happened? What's wrong with Luo Fei?"

"He did it to save a child."

Chen Xuanran choked up and couldn't continue.

Chen's mother hugged her two daughters, while Chen's father went to the doctor with a serious expression to inquire about the situation.

Soon, Luo Fei's colleagues and police officers from Xiahegou Police Station arrived one after another, and Zhou Gang and Li Guo practically ran in.

"How's Captain Luo? What's the situation?"

Zhou Gang asked anxiously.

Chen Xuanran shook his head, tears welling up again.

Just then, a commotion arose at the end of the corridor, and Director Meng Haonan walked quickly with several leaders.

"Immediately assemble the best medical team!"

Meng Haonan's voice was beyond question.

"Comrade Luo Fei is an outstanding police officer; we must do everything we can to save him!"

The hospital director personally arrived at the scene and quickly convened all trauma specialists for a consultation.

The corridor outside the operating room quickly filled with people, including police colleagues, Luo Fei's relatives and friends, and media reporters who had rushed over upon hearing the news.

Time ticked by, the operating room door opened and closed, nurses went in and out, and everyone's face was filled with tension.

Five hours later, the operating room door finally opened again.

The surgeon came out, took off his mask, and his face showed undisguised fatigue and regret.

"I'm sorry, we did our best."

The doctor said gravely.

"The patient's traumatic brain injury was too severe, and the intracranial hemorrhage was uncontrollable."

Chen Xuanran's world collapsed at that moment.

She couldn't hear the cries of those around her, nor could she see her sister faint and being helped away. Her gaze pierced through the crowd, fixed on the door to the operating room.

"No, it's impossible."

she muttered.

"He was just talking to me and smiling at me."

With the doctor's tacit approval, Chen Xuanran walked into the operating room alone.

Beneath the white sheet was that familiar figure; she reached out tremblingly, then withdrew her hand.

"Luo Fei."

Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.

"You promised to tell me more, you can't just leave like this."

She finally mustered the courage to lift the white sheet, and when she saw that bloodless face, she could no longer control herself and threw herself on Luo Fei, bursting into tears.

Meng Haonan stood at the front of the conference room, his fingers unconsciously tapping on the table.

The night outside the window was as dark as ink, but the police station building was brightly lit.

He looked around and saw that everyone's face was filled with exhaustion and shock.

"Comrades."

Meng Haonan cleared his throat, his voice a little hoarse.

"I've gathered everyone here tonight to announce some unfortunate news."

The meeting room fell silent instantly; even breathing became clearly audible.

The pen in the hand of criminal police captain Zhou Gang fell to the table with a "thud," sounding particularly jarring in the silence.

"Comrade Luo Fei."

Meng Haonan paused, his Adam's apple bobbing.

"He tragically lost his life during the rescue operation for a child who had fallen into the water this afternoon."

"what?"

Li Guo suddenly stood up, the chair scraping against the floor with a screeching sound.

"Impossible! Luo Fei is such a good swimmer, how could he..."

Meng Haonan raised his hand, gesturing for him to sit down.

"The specific details are still under investigation. But the facts are..."

His voice lowered.

"Comrade Luo Fei has been confirmed to have sacrificed his life at the young age of 26."

The sound of sobbing could be heard throughout the conference room.

Zeng Jian's eyes were red, and his fists were clenched so tightly they turned white.

"What about the child?"

"The child has been saved."

Meng Haonan said.

"Luo Fei paid for it with his life."

Chen Xuanran sat in the corner, his face as pale as paper.

She bit her lower lip tightly until she tasted blood before letting go.

Zhu Ke'er quietly took her hand and found that her hands were as cold as a dead person's.

"Luo Fei is one of the best police officers in the bureau."

Meng Haonan continued, his voice trembling with suppressed sobs.

"He loves his work and is always at the forefront. This time..."

he.

"He exemplified the duties and mission of a police officer with his life."

Several police officers from Xiahegou Police Station lowered their heads, their shoulders trembling uncontrollably.

Some of them remembered that Luo Fei had just said last week with a smile that he would treat everyone to dinner to celebrate cracking a major case.

"Considering Luo Fei's special circumstances."

Meng Haonan composed himself.

“His parents died young, and now he only has an octogenarian grandmother. I suggest that we not tell the old lady this bad news for the time being.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. Zhou Gang wiped his face.

"The director is right. The old man is too old to take this blow."

"I hereby announce the establishment of a funeral committee."

Meng Haonan's voice regained its usual composure.

"I will serve as the president. The memorial service is scheduled for the day after tomorrow at the Jiangcheng Funeral Home. We want to ensure that this good comrade departs with dignity."

After the meeting ended, Chen Xuanran remained seated and motionless.

"Zhu Ke'er said softly."

"Xuanran, let's go see Luo Fei."

Chen Xuanran then seemed to wake from a dream and nodded mechanically.

Her nails dug deep into her palms, yet she felt no pain.

The atmosphere in the largest mourning hall of Jiangcheng Funeral Home was so heavy it was almost suffocating. Luo Fei's body was placed in a dark coffin; because it was the dead of winter, a freezer was not used.

Zhou Xuan and Zeng Jian carefully helped him put on his brand-new police uniform, their movements as gentle as if they were handling fragile porcelain.

"That kid Luo Fei."

Zeng Jian's voice choked with emotion.

"I usually hate wearing formal attire, saying it's inconvenient. But now it's fine."

Zhou Xuan didn't respond, but silently adjusted Luo Fei's tie.

When his fingers touched Luo Fei's cold cheek, he abruptly pulled them back.

"It's so cold."

he murmured.

Xu Hanwen stood to the side, his glasses fogged up.

He took off his glasses, wiped them, and put them back on.

"If Luo Fei knew we were crying like this, he would definitely laugh at us."

When Chen Xuanran walked in, everyone fell silent.

She was wearing a plain white dress, but her face was even paler than the dress.

Zhu Ke'er supported her, afraid that she might fall at any moment.

"A great uproar."

Zhou Xuan wanted to say something, but found himself at a loss for words.

Chen Xuanran shook his head and walked to the coffin.

She gazed at Luo Fei's peaceful face, as if he were simply asleep.

She reached out and gently stroked his brow bone, the bridge of his nose, and finally stopped at his lips.

"You said you would marry me."

She spoke softly, so softly that it was almost inaudible.

"fraud."

Zhu Ke'er turned her face away, tears silently streaming down her cheeks.

Li Guo and Zhou Gang led their colleagues from Xiaohegou in, each holding a white chrysanthemum.

"Captain Luo."

Li Guo placed the flowers beside the coffin, her voice trembling.

"We came to see you."

As night fell, the watchmen arrived one after another.

Li Ya and Jiang Xia rushed over, their faces still showing disbelief.

"How could this be?"

Li Ya grabbed Zhou Xuan's arm.

"He was helping me analyze the case the day before yesterday, how could he suddenly..."

Zhou Xuan shook his head, unable to answer the question everyone wanted to ask.

Xu Hanwen prepared hot tea for everyone, but no one was in the mood to drink it.

The only sounds in the memorial hall were low sobs and occasional conversations.

Chen Xuanran sat on a chair in the corner, staring blankly ahead.

"Xuanran".

Zhu Ke'er handed her a cup of hot water.

"Have something to drink."

Chen Xuanran took the cup but did not drink it.

Her voice was as light as a feather.

"Ke'er, do you know what? We were planning to get our marriage certificate next month."

Zhu Ke'er covered her mouth, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

The memorial service officially began at nine o'clock the next morning.

The cameras of Jiangcheng City TV station have been set up, and the online live broadcast has also started simultaneously.

Outside the funeral home, the sky was so dark it seemed to press down.

Shu Mi tightened her trench coat and pinned her press pass to her chest in a more conspicuous position.

As she watched the vehicles arrive one after another, she turned on her live streaming equipment.

"Hello everyone, I'm reporter Shu Mi, and I'm bringing you live coverage from the memorial service for legendary police officer Luo Fei."

Her voice was trembling.

"Although Officer Luo has only been a police officer for six months, the number and quality of the cases he has solved are astonishing. Today, we will witness this hero's final farewell."

The camera panned across the entrance of the funeral home, where dozens of parents and children were already queuing to enter.

A little girl with pigtails is clinging tightly to her mother's leg, clutching a crooked drawing in her hand.

“Those are survivors of the Xingxing Kindergarten kidnapping case.”

Shu Mi explained quietly to the camera, then walked towards the mother.

"Hello, may I interview you?"

The woman's eyes were red-rimmed, and she nodded.

"Officer Luo... he saved my daughter's life."

The woman's voice choked with emotion as she knelt down and hugged her daughter.

"That day, the assailant was armed with a knife, and Officer Luo was the one who rushed in first. He..."

Before she could finish speaking, she was already sobbing uncontrollably.

The little girl held up the drawing in her hand.

"Police officers have wings!"

The painting depicts a winged policeman protecting a group of children behind him.

Shumi's Adam's apple bobbed as the camera panned to the other parents.

"A father said excitedly."

"Without Officer Luo, my son wouldn't be standing here right now! He's a benefactor to our whole family!"

The barrage of comments in the live broadcast room exploded instantly.

Tears welled up in my eyes. Rest in peace, hero.

My daughter goes to that kindergarten too; Officer Luo really saved all the children.

[To have accomplished so much in just six months as a police officer is truly remarkable!]

Just then, a group of simply dressed middle-aged men and women quietly entered the venue.

Shu Mi keenly followed.

"Who are you?"

A man with gray hair stopped in his tracks.

“My daughter was the last victim in the ‘Rainy Night Butcher’ case. It was Officer Luo who caught that beast, allowing my daughter to rest in peace.”

“My husband was a victim of the taxi serial murders.”

A woman next to me was wiping away tears.

"Officer Luo solved the case in just three days."

The host stood in front of the mourning hall, his voice deep and powerful.

"Officer Luo Fei has only been a police officer for six months, but he has solved numerous major cases. From kindergarten kidnapping to serial murders, he has used his professionalism and courage to protect the safety of this city."

The screen was flooded with comments again.

Solving so many cases in half a year? That's amazing!

I heard he has a 100% case-solving rate.

What a pity, such a talented person was killed off by fate.

The memorial service was solemn and dignified, with a black banner with white lettering hanging high.

"Deepest condolences on the passing of Comrade Luo Fei."

Outside the funeral home, crowds surged like a tide, and reporters from various media outlets set up their cameras and microphones, with flashes going off one after another.

"Let's let one let, let one let!"

The security guards struggled to maintain order.

Just then, a group of smartly dressed women walked out of the side door and were immediately surrounded by reporters.

"What is your relationship with Comrade Luo Fei?"

"Why would a girl group from an island nation attend a policeman's memorial service?"

The woman leading the group took off her sunglasses, her eyes red-rimmed.

"Officer Hao stood up for us when we were threatened by organized crime; he is a true hero."

As she spoke, her voice choked with emotion, and she could no longer continue.

The reporters wanted to ask more questions, but were interrupted by a commotion.

The crowd parted to make way for a distinguished-looking middle-aged man who walked in, surrounded by his entourage.

"It's Vice Mayor Xiao!"

The host's eyes lit up and he immediately went to greet her.

"Mayor Xiao, what is your assessment of Comrade Luo Fei's sacrifice?"

Xiao Zhengguo stopped in his tracks, his expression grave.

"The passing of Comrade Luo Fei has caused our city leadership team immense grief."

He paused, his voice trembling slightly.

"On behalf of the municipal party committee and the municipal government, I am here to bid farewell to this good policeman of the people."

These words were broadcast live and spread across the internet, causing an explosion of comments in the chat. (End of Chapter)
