Mystery Hunter

Chapter 33: River Archives

"What's wrong?"

When Director Wen suddenly heard what Mr. Shao said, he was a little excited, but more worried. He knew that Shao Lao's intentions to leave had already been decided, but there must be some important reason for saying such a word out of nowhere. And this could have serious consequences.

Shao Lao took out a card from his pocket. To be precise, it was a black business card.

There are only four words on the black business card—criminal counselor.

These four characters are not printed, but written by someone with a pen. This handwriting is vigorous and powerful, with iron and silver hooks, and the brush strokes are like dragons and snakes, and the force penetrates the back of the paper. If you don't look at the meaning of these four words, Shao Lao cannot help but praise the really good writing.

This handwriting is not unfamiliar to Mr. Shao. More than 20 years ago, whether it was unfortunate or fortunate, Mr. Shao once saw the owner of this handwriting in a mental hospital in Dongxing City. At that time, Shao Laoyuan did not have the composure and determination he has now. When he fought against this person, Shao Lao suffered a disastrous defeat.

But since this person escaped from the mental hospital, Lao Shao has not seen this person for 20 years. But now, the man is back.

Veteran Shao handed the card to Director Wen. After Director Wen read it, he couldn't help but gasp: "This person is back again."

Shao Lao walked downstairs quickly, and said, "This old man is eighty years old, and he can really toss."

Director Wen said: "It seems that you have no way to rest recently. I will inform Minister Li immediately. It seems that you are going to set up a team again."

Shao Lao nodded, but said, "No need, I told Lao Li in person that I haven't seen Lao Li for a long time."

While speaking, Mr. Shao came downstairs again, but at this time the crowd around him had long since disappeared.

As a disciple of Lao Shao, Director Wen naturally noticed something, and he said, "I sent someone to investigate the crowd at that time. It must have been someone who took advantage of the chaos and put it in your pocket when you were passing through the crowd. ."

Shao Lao shook his head: "No need, I can't find out what's behind the scenes. If he didn't even have the ability, he wouldn't be blacklisted by the Ministry of Public Security. But this dead old man, he is 80 years old. Don't stop, I'm afraid he is going to play a big game before he dies."

It's night, the Ministry of Public Security.

In front of Mr. Shao was an old man with white hair at the moment. This person was Mr. Shao's former colleague and the current deputy chief of the Ministry of Public Security.

A black card was placed on the table in front of the two of them.

Li Bu~chang looked at the black card and said, "He appeared again? After so many years, I thought he was dead long ago."

Shao Lao tapped his finger on the table lightly: "I won't talk nonsense with you. I have been working together for four years and have worked together for most of my life. When I get old, I have to see you."

Li Bu~chang snorted coldly: "It seems that I would like to see you. If it wasn't for another task force, I thought I would come."

If others see these two powerful old men and children over a hundred years old quarreling, it is estimated that they will be surprised and speechless.

With a blank look at Shao Lao, Li Bu~chang said seriously: "Is it true that we set up a task force, among the more than 2 million police officers in the country, I have selected ten of the best people for you. The most important thing is that they are all young talents. , with your style back then."

After speaking, Minister Li opened a list: "Look at this, at the age of 25, I participated in more than 30 cases, and repeatedly won the second-class merit of the team, the second-class merit of the individual, etc., is it because of you? What it looked like back then. Look at this armed policeman, who has participated in the International Police Fighting Competition for several consecutive years, and has achieved great results. Look at this again..."

Shao Lao looked at Mr. Li, and gently closed the file.

Li Bu~chang looked at Shao Lao without a good face: "Since you were young, you have liked to find people who are not in the system. Do you have obsessive-compulsive disorder? Don't look for these professional police officers, you must Find those idle workers. You are an honorary professor at the People's Public Security University of China, not a laid-off reemployment training company."

After hearing Li Bu~chang's words, Shao Lao couldn't help but laugh: "So I know that most of the outstanding police officers in this file have learned what I taught, that is to say, I want to find another me to help, you Do you think this is necessary? If it is him who is to be dealt with, it will be interesting to find some people who will surprise me."

Li Bu~ Chang pouted: "Every time you say something, find a bunch of false ideas. You don't have to find these people for you. Naturally, there are other candidates in your heart. Tell me, who is this person this time? Ah? It's the blacksmith who repairs the car, the one who sells buns or the fried dough sticks, the one who pays the phone bill, or the one in the mental hospital."

Shao Lao stretched out a finger and pointed at Minister Li, and said, "You ah you, besides a mental hospital, who else have I found? After that case, I retired to the second-line teaching. But if I say that, there is really one person that I am more interested in."

"Who is it?" Chief Li was also a little curious, not knowing what kind of person Shao Lao would say this time.

"Jiang He." Elder Shao said Jiang He's name.

"What? This person is also a non-staff. How many cases have he solved?" said Minister Li.

Shao Lao shook his head.

"This person has paranoia?" Li Bu~chang said again.

Shao Lao still shook his head.

"Okay, where does this person live except for his name, and how can I find him?" Chief Li asked again.

Old Shao still shook his head.

Li Bu~chang said, "I said Shao Shilin, are you kidding me, how do you know a name and let me find out? You really think I know everything, know everything..."

Shao Lao smiled and shook his head.

Two hours later, a file was placed in front of Mr. Shao.

"Tell me, how much power I used to find this person for you, I didn't care about you before, but now you are my subordinate, if this so-called Jiang He is not as powerful as the rest of our police officers, you will You can't use this kid, do you understand?"

Captain Li pointed to the file and opened his mouth.

"But speaking of it, this kid is still related to you."

Seeing that Mr. Shao ignored him at all, Mr. Li had no choice but to make fun of himself.

"Have a fate with me?" Shao Lao was a little puzzled.

Li Bu~chang sat down and said, "You can see it clearly."

Shao Lao carefully read this file.

Jiang He, 28 years old, Han nationality, from Yuzhou.

In the first grade of elementary school, the little boy was six years old. It was a sunny day, and the little boy walked out of the gate of the community unit to go to school. Just after he walked out of the building door, there was the sound of an explosion from upstairs. There was a fire upstairs, and the crowd was at a loss. Firefighters, doctors, and police all arrived on the scene.

After things subsided, the police gave the conclusion of the investigation. The couple on the fourth floor got angry because of the quarrel. The angry husband lit the gas tank, causing a big explosion. The couple were killed on the spot. The explosion collapsed the kitchen on the fourth floor and affected the residents on the third floor. The occupants on the third floor are also a couple, who are having breakfast in the kitchen.

When Mr. Shao read this file, he couldn't help but go back to that morning decades ago. At that time, Shao Shilin was just an ordinary little policeman. That day he followed his master Shi Huacheng to investigate the bombing. After the explosion, the scene was in chaos.

Firefighters, doctors, police, they fight fires, save people, and evacuate the masses.

Shao Shilin saw a little boy in the chaos.

The little boy stood downstairs from a distance, and he looked at the burning residential building and did not move. Shao Shilin saw fear, anxiety and confusion in the child's pure eyes, so Shao Shilin walked up. He hugged the little boy tightly, he could feel the little boy shaking, it was an extreme fear.

There is no adult around, and no one can take care of this child.

No matter how Shao Shilin asked who the child's parents were, the child did not speak anywhere, as if he had been stunned. Shao Shilin had no way to just leave the child here, so he spent a full twelve hours with the child.

After everything was settled, and after the investigation came to light, it was already a few hours in the morning.

The explosion affected the residents on the third floor, the kitchen on the fourth floor collapsed, and the rubble and steel bars poured down.

The couple on the third floor were sent to the hospital. After more than ten hours of rescue, they were still not rescued and unfortunately died.

And that child was the child of the husband and wife on the third floor, and his name was Jiang He.

After that day, Jiang He's distant relatives took him away, and Shao Shilin never saw him again. Unexpectedly, after several decades, Shao Shilin had news of Jiang He again.

Rao is a person like Shao Lao who never believes in fate and fate, and at this moment, he can't help but feel that this world is a little strange.

But Jiang He's files are not only that. In the next few years, Jiang He has shown much more powerful observation and memory skills than ordinary people. He can recite a book that others have to memorize many times. From a distance of millimeters, Jiang He could observe it.

Medically this disease is called hyperamnesia.

"Hypertrophy." Shao Lao couldn't help muttering to himself.

Li Bu~chang nodded: "Yes, it's hyperamnesia, no wonder he is so much better at observing than others, he can't forget anything at all, as long as he has experienced it, he will never forget it. . So even if you move just one thing, he can see it."

"What a happy thing that must be."

"How painful that must have been."

The two spoke almost simultaneously.

The former is what Li Bu~chang said, and the latter is what Shao Lao said.

The two looked at each other, both curious as they came to a completely different conclusion. Both of them looked into each other's eyes, and they both drew an extremely rude word from each other's eyes - stupid.

"Why is it painful?" Li Bu~chang asked: "Who doesn't want to never forget, did you pass the fourth grade when you were in college?"

Shao Lao shrugged, "It is recorded in the archives that Jiang He went to college?"

"No." Li Bu~chang replied.

"Then it's over." Shao Lao said.

Shao Lao understands that others will only see the happiness of fur, but never know the pain behind happiness.

"But there's something interesting about it."

Shao Lao opened his mouth.
