Mysterious city

"You, follow me back to the bureau to take notes."

"Don't think about how good your friendship with me is. When we get to the bureau, we are strangers. Everything will be done in accordance with the rules and procedures. Do you understand?"

Captain Niu took out another pack of cigarettes from his pocket, took one out and lit it. At the same time, he looked at the ugly-looking Manager Gu with sharp eyes.

In fact, although Captain Niu can be regarded as a long-time smoker, his addiction to cigarettes is not that big.

But when he encounters a difficult problem or feels very anxious, Captain Niu always likes to light a cigarette to relieve his emotions.

Captain Niu's words made Manager Gu's heart suddenly freeze. This was the rhythm of preparing to bring him into the situation!

Of course, Manager Gu can be regarded as a semi-literate person. He certainly knows that even if Captain Niu doubts himself and treats himself as a suspect, without evidence, he can only be detained for 24 hours at most.

It was just Captain Niu's final words, "They are strangers after entering the game" that made Manager Gu feel uneasy.

Manager Gu certainly understands that although the Public Security Bureau pays attention to handling matters in accordance with the law, the water here is extremely deep.

There are always some tough-talking guys. Even if it is confirmed that he is the suspect, these stubborn bastards refuse to admit it.

Whenever this happens, people from the Public Security Bureau will always use some "little tricks" to pry some useful information from these tough guys.

Of course, in that era, it was very rare to use violence to solve problems compared to the previous ten years or so, at least it was not as exaggerated as in those TV series.

It's just that even if the good comrades of the Public Security Bureau don't punch you or use any torture instruments, even if you are lucky and can avoid the physical pain, your spirit will not be any better.

If there are clear rules and regulations that strictly prohibit the use of force, then at that time, there was no clear definition of mental torture and destruction, and it was relatively vague.

Don't make it too easy for the Sheriff's Department if they want to torture you mentally.

For example, locking you in a small dark room with no water or food, and no police officer to question you, leaving you alone.

There is no light or clock in the room, and your mobile phone and communication equipment are confiscated, completely cutting off your connection with the outside world.

You can no longer feel the passage of time, as if a minute, an hour, or a day are just a concept in that small dark room where you are the only one.

During this time, no one will talk to you, and you have no idea when your "twenty-four" hours have passed.

In that era when the concept of legality was far less popular than it is now, this kind of thing was not uncommon.

Although Manager Gu had never experienced it personally before.

But as someone who works in the entertainment industry and often interacts with police officers, how could he not hear about this?

Almost every time they entertained magistrates at their hotel, they would hear things like this.

Of course, it’s not like the Sheriffs get drunk and brag about how awesome they are.

First, let Manager Gu and others know how serious the crime is, so that they can abide by the law and be honest and good citizens. This will undoubtedly save the peace officers a lot of trouble.

Secondly, this can also make Manager Gu and others understand that no matter it is in the entertainment industry or anything else, anyone who has anything to do with the Public Security Bureau cannot do without their care.

In this way, as long as Manager Gu and the others are sincere, and as long as they are not fools with negative IQs, they will not fail to understand that they should give more when they "offer offerings" next time, otherwise, they will have no choice but to ask for more blessings.

Judging from the current situation, the previous efforts of Captain Niu and others to "pave the way" are not without effect. No, it should be said that the effect is significant.

Looking at Manager Gu’s elephant legs shaking like chaff is enough to show how panicked and frightened he is inside!

Of course, Captain Niu was not so full that he had nothing to do but had to take Manager Gu back for questioning. This was also a helpless move.

Although Manager Gu is a smooth guy who talks a lot about things and speaks half truths and half lies, several other "victims" have already lost consciousness, and judging from their state, they may not be able to recover for a while.

As the last "survivor" who still retains consciousness, Captain Niu can only place all his hopes on Manager Gu, an extremely unreliable guy.

And one thing is extremely important, that is, Captain Niu needs Manager Gu to provide him with a portrait of the murderer's appearance.

The technological equipment at that time was far from as advanced as it is now. Computers and smartphones had not yet been widely popularized, let alone high-tech gadgets such as computer-generated portraits of suspects. It was simply a fantasy.

Therefore, the only way to describe the suspect's appearance is to ask Manager Gu to briefly describe it, and then let the painter from the security team follow suit.

Captain Niu's plan is to distribute the portrait of the boy named Wang Yan to his subordinates, and then strictly check several important places where the murderer may be haunted.

For example, around this hotel, nearby neighborhoods and train stations.

Years of criminal investigation experience tell Captain Niu that most murderers will return to the scene after committing a murder.

Some of them have abnormal psychology and want to come back to see whether their "masterpiece" has been taken seriously by the peace officers, whether it has caused a sensation in society and become the focus of society.

Some were worried about leaving any clues when they committed the crime, and wanted to rush back to see how the Sheriff's investigation was going.

In short, no matter what kind of psychology it is based on, it is undoubtedly an extremely stupid behavior and plays into the hands of Captain Niu, which is why he has to arrange manpower nearby.

The reason for sending his men to the train station was because Captain Niu had learned from Manager Gu that Wang Yan was a half-grown child from out of town.

Most children at that age have immature minds. After committing an offense, the first thought that comes to their mind must be to escape from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

Even if he doesn't go back to his hometown, Captain Niu knows that this kid will definitely not be able to stay in Xishi anymore.

Therefore, the railway station must also be an area that needs to be "heavily defended".

Of course, no matter where the subordinates are sent, they must be in plain clothes.

Otherwise, the murderer may be aware of the crime in advance and escape. Such a costly deployment of police forces will definitely arouse the suspicion of the surrounding citizens, making the situation even more chaotic and difficult to control.
