Especially during times like the Chinese New Year, when I am alone, I feel lonely and have all kinds of thoughts. But when I am busy working with the truck, I don’t have much time to think about anything else.
There are many passengers during the Spring Festival, and many troubles arise, but Zhou Chen is experienced and is becoming more and more adept at handling these things.
…………
"Woooo..."
The loud whistle sounds echo across the railway. The Spring Festival has passed, which also means that the busiest days are over and the green spring has arrived.
When Zhou Chen passed by the connection between two carriages, he suddenly saw a man curled up there. The man was dressed in rags and looked filthy, and he exuded a sour smell.
During the several months on the train, Zhou Chen had smelled all kinds of smells, so when faced with this kind of smell, he had long been able to selectively ignore it.
Hearing the footsteps, the man who looked like a beggar raised his head, and the first thing that came into view was a pair of squinting, cloudy eyes.
This man is blind.
A light bulb went off in Zhou Chen's mind. Beggar, sloppy, blind man, he couldn't help but think of the great father in the plot who had been searching for his daughter for decades.
The old blind man, Meng Qingshan.
The old blind man Meng Qingshan is a tragic figure in the train. His daughter was abducted at the station when she was two years old. In order to find his daughter, he has been lingering on the train ever since, just to find the human trafficker who abducted his daughter.
But even in the end, although he found the woman trafficker, he ultimately did not find his daughter. He lived for decades, but not finding his daughter was his lifelong regret. That feeling of despair cannot be understood unless you experience it yourself.
At this time, Meng Qingshan had been looking for his daughter for many years and was an old man at Ningyang Station. Many staff members working at Ningyang Station knew Meng Qingshan, and many of them felt sorry for him. Even though they knew that he would evade the ticket, most people turned a blind eye and even often took the initiative to bring him food and drinks.
How does the saying go? Even though one's life is a mess, one still cannot bear to see the sufferings in the world, so everyone will selectively tolerate poor people like Meng Qingshan.
Zhou Chen handed over the two eggs he had in his pocket.
Although the old blind man could not see, his nose was very sensitive. As soon as Zhou Chen took out the eggs, he sniffed and smelled something.
"Egg, who are you?"
"Take it and eat it."
"It's the police officer. Thank you, thank you. You are such a kind person."
The old blind man took the egg and was extremely grateful. In order to find his daughter, he put aside everything and made himself look like neither human nor ghost. People who saw him would basically stay away from him. Few people would be willing to approach him, let alone give him food.
Zhou Chen squatted down next to the old blind man, watching him eat eggs, and asked softly: "Brother, although we have never met, I have heard about your story. You do nothing like this, give up your life, stay at the station and in the car all day long, is it worth it?"
The old blind man froze for a moment, and after a long while, he slowly asked, "If it was your daughter who was abducted, what would you do?"
Zhou Chen was silent. If it was really his daughter who was abducted, he would definitely do nothing but find his daughter back.
So he didn't say anything else, but just patted the old blind man gently.
"Brother, I will do my best to help you find the traffickers and get your daughter back."
Although he knew that the old blind man's daughter was not sold by human traffickers, she was indeed abducted by human traffickers first and then lost. If she had not been abducted by human traffickers first, the old blind man would not have lost his daughter.
No matter what, human traffickers really deserve to die. In Zhou Chen's opinion, human traffickers are ten or a hundred times worse than most murderers. Such people should be shot if they are caught. No, they should go through the ten tortures and go to the eighteen levels of hell.
"Thank you, thank you police comrades, you are all good people, good people, thank you..."
The old blind man's voice was choked with sobs. In the past ten years of searching for his daughter, he had met many good people, but his daughter had never been found. His heart had slowly grown cold. However, every time he heard the police say they would help him, he couldn't help but be moved.
Even though he knew that the hope was slim, what if, what if he really found it?
Isn't it for that one chance that he stays at the station and on the train every day?

Chapter 1342: Wang joins the police force, the story begins
After a trip, Zhou Chen just returned to the passenger police team and heard from his colleagues that there were new people in the passenger police team today. A total of three new people were assigned, all young people under the age of 20.
"Your Ningha line has also been assigned a new person. You can go ask your master."
Li Qin, who was in charge of attendance, talked to Zhou Chen about the spring assignment of new people while helping him make the attendance sheet.
Ningyang Station is a big station, but it has always had insufficient staff. This is the first time in these years that three new people can be assigned at one time.
Zhou Chen doesn’t care about newcomers or anything like that; he cares about something else.
"Sister Qin, what did the old man say about the matter I told you last time?"
It would have been fine if she didn't mention this. As soon as she mentioned it, Li Qin got angry. Before, she had kindly called Zhou Chen home and introduced her cousin to Zhou Chen.
As a result, her cousin was extremely satisfied with Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen did not like her cousin. Of course, this was infuriating, because in a blind date, the most important thing is that both parties are willing.
But Zhou Chen didn't like her cousin, but instead liked a set of study treasures in their family. He insisted on buying them and offered a high price of one hundred yuan.
To be honest, if it was hers, she would have sold it immediately after hearing the price of one hundred yuan, but those four treasures of the study were not hers, but her father-in-law's.
She told her father-in-law about Zhou Chen's idea, which earned her a scolding from him. He said that it was his life and he would have to take it with him into the coffin when he died, and asked her to give up the idea.
Li Qin was scolded so badly that she turned around and took out her anger on Zhou Chen. She really couldn't understand what was so good about a set of four treasures of the study that Zhou Chen was still thinking about it.
"I advise you to give up that idea right away. My father-in-law said that if you dare to come to his house, he will beat you to death with his cane."
Zhou Chen smiled awkwardly. Li Qin's father-in-law had a hot temper, so he didn't go himself and asked Li Qin to talk to him on his behalf.
This is also his professional habit. When he saw the well-preserved set of four treasures of the study from the Ming Dynasty at Li Qin's house, he liked it very much and wanted to buy it back.
But he didn't know that the other person was also a connoisseur, and truly liked it, treating it like a treasure and was unwilling to sell it no matter how much money was offered. He had no choice but to follow Li Qin's path.
Unfortunately, this road is no longer viable.
"I mean, you're the same. My cousin is pretty and hardworking, but you don't like her. Instead, you like those old things. I don't know what you're thinking."
Li Qin was still brooding over her cousin's matter, so Zhou Chen quickly found a reason to leave.
I had only taken two steps when I met Captain Hu.
"Hey, Zhou Chen, come here."
"Captain Hu."
Captain Hu said with a smile: "We have a new member in our team. We have arranged a new member for your Harbin team. He is someone you know."
"Wang Xin?"
"Okay, you're a potential police officer. You guessed it before I even told you."
Zhou Chen explained: "I heard from Wang Xin before that there would be an assignment after the New Year. At that time, he said he wanted to join the criminal police team, and I discouraged him."
Captain Hu laughed: "You are right. You can't just join the criminal police team. Wang Xin is not as steady as you are. You must take good care of him when you get on the car next time."
"How can I lead him? I am still a newcomer myself."
"Come on, ask our team, who still considers you a newcomer?"
Leaders all like subordinates who are capable and sensible. Zhou Chen possesses both of these qualities, so Captain Hu is naturally very satisfied with him.
"Wang Xin, Wang Xin."
"coming."
Wang Xin ran out of the office, and his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Zhou Chen.
"Zhou Chen, you're back. I didn't expect that I would be assigned here as well. We'll be colleagues from now on."
Looking at the very happy Wang Xin, Zhou Chen smiled.
Captain Hu said unhappily, "Alright, we can talk later. From now on, you should follow Zhou Chen. You two will work on the same shift. Zhou Chen, you should teach him the rules here. You should also teach him more after he gets on the bus."
After leaving Wang Xin to Zhou Chen, he left immediately.
Wang Xin said to Zhou Chen very happily: "We will work together in the future. You came here half a year earlier than me, so you need to teach me more."
"I will definitely teach you what I can, but didn't you say before that you wanted to join the criminal police team? How come you were assigned here?" Zhou Chen asked with a smile.
Speaking of this, Wang Xin looked depressed: "It was assigned by the school. What can I do? Being a train police officer is not bad. After all, we are all police officers. I see that you are quite happy doing it."
"Have you received your police uniform?"
"Yes, it's a little big. I'll go back and ask my dad to change it."
"I'm going back now. How about you? Do you want to go back with me?"
"I just got here today. It's not a good idea to leave so early. Let's wait a little longer. You go back first."
On his first day in the passenger police team, Wang Xin still wanted to show himself well and was not in a hurry to go back.
Zhou Chen didn't say anything, just nodded: "Okay, then I'll go back first."
"Don't rush to sleep when you get home. When I get home in the evening, I'll treat you to a meal to celebrate my start of work and say hello to Cai Xiaonian and Niu Dali."
"understood."
In the evening, Zhou Chen, Wang Xin, Cai Xiaonian, and Niu Dali, a total of four people, came to a small restaurant outside.
"Today is my first day at work. I will have a job from now on. I'm treating you today. Tell me what you want to eat or drink."
As the organizer of today, Wang Xin spoke first, feeling very happy and proud.
Niu Dali asked: "Can I eat whatever I want? How about roast goose, roast chicken, beef..."
"Stop, stop, stop. What are the conditions? Roast goose and chicken, but only peanuts. Eat it if you want." Wang Xin said angrily.
Cai Xiaonian pinched the peanuts and put them into his mouth: "Wang Xin, your leader is really good. He arranged you and Zhou Chen together. We will be in the same car from now on. I tell you, you have to learn from Zhou Chen. Everyone in our shift knows how powerful Zhou Chen is. My master said that Zhou Chen is growing too fast."
Wang Xin said: "Of course, Zhou Chen is my brother, my senior brother, I must learn from him, come, Zhou Chen, let me toast you first."
"Come on, let's go."
Zhou Chen clinked glasses with Wang Xin, who then asked, "Zhou Chen, tell me about the car. I'm going to be driving with you in a few days. What should I prepare?"
As a pure new flight attendant, Wang Xin wanted to learn experience from Zhou Chen, so Zhou Chen was the main guest for today's meal.
"I can only tell you some simple and specific things. Once you get on the bus, see more, and encounter more, you will understand."
Wang Xin is a young man with a strong sense of justice and responsibility, but he is only eighteen years old now and is still immature in all aspects. However, Zhou Chen still admires his daring and adventurous personality.
But if he really had to take care of Wang Xin, he didn't have the patience. Anyway, Ma Kui would be released in a few days, and leaving Wang Xin to Ma Kui would be the best option. He was just making the transition now.
Three days passed in a flash, and finally it was the day for Wang Xin to go out driving for the first time. Wang Xin seemed very nervous as he got in the car for the first time.
Jiang Zhanxian smiled and encouraged him: "Wang Xin, don't be nervous, just follow Zhou Chen and learn."
"Yes, Captain Jiang."
This time, the team was led by Jiang Zhanxian, with three other police officers, Zhou Chen, Yu Xingguo and Wang Xin, making a total of four people. However, because Wang Xin was a newcomer, more tasks naturally fell on Zhou Chen and Yu Xingguo.
Zhou Chen and Yu Xingguo have been partners for half a year and are very familiar with each other. Although Yu Xingguo has been a flight attendant for much longer than Zhou Chen, he is a veteran with a low level of education and is more of the type who works hard.
The two of them were partners, and when it came to mediation and interrogation, Zhou Chen usually took the initiative to take charge, and he assisted Zhou Chen.
Although Zhou Chen has only been in the passenger police team for more than half a year, his professional ability is recognized by the entire team and he is highly valued by Captain Hu and Jiang Zhanxian.
Wang Xin followed Zhou Chen and looked at the vast crowd of people. He sighed, "There are quite a lot of people."
Zhou Chen said: "This is just the beginning. During the Chinese New Year, the workload was more than double. That was when we were really busy and dizzy."
"It seems that the job of a flight attendant is not easy. As expected, I still prefer to be a criminal police officer."
"Don't worry about your detective, go help maintain order and be safe."
"got it."
Although Wang Xin is a bit of a chatterbox, he is actually quite diligent at work.
The train to Harbin will soon depart from Ningyang.
In the car, Wang Xinxing enthusiastically inspected the carriage with Zhou Chen.
"Zhou Chen, you have been working in the passenger police team for half a year. Have you solved any major cases?"
"No case is the best thing. There may be a big case on the bus, but it's hard to come by. The biggest case I solved was catching a human trafficker. But you're lucky, maybe you'll come across a big case in the future."
Wang Xin in the play has come into contact with many major cases. Perhaps this is the treatment of the protagonist.
For Zhou Chen, he doesn't care whether there are big cases or not. His first goal now is to work as a train police officer for five years. It would be great if he could encounter a big case, but it doesn't matter if he doesn't. He is not as eager to make achievements as Wang Xin.
"The most common case on the train is theft, followed by human traffickers, especially children. We must pay special attention to them. However, the most common cases we deal with are conflicts between passengers. When encountering these situations, we first try to mediate. If mediation is not possible, we will file a case for prosecution."
"clear."
While the two were talking, Yao Yuling's voice was heard over the train radio.
"Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth, Marxism-Leninism..."
Wang Xin said happily: "The voice of Yao Yuling from our hospital is really nice."
