"Gang Zi, you have to report to the police station tomorrow. You have to work hard and not embarrass your father.”His mother looked at Tong Gang who was lying on the bed with concern. Her heart ached when she thought of his father.
"Mom, I know. I will definitely be a qualified police officer!”
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the sound outside the window made Tong Gang, who was about to fall asleep, widen his eyes. He heard it clearly and was very sure that it was a gunshot! He jumped up from the bed and ran to the windowsill to open the window. He vaguely saw a black shadow running down the corner of the alley. There was a street lamp at the corner. With the weak light and good eyesight, Tong Gang clearly saw that the black figure was wearing a cap and a black coat.
Tong Gang, who had run downstairs, walked to the location of the gunshot based on his memory. It was a dilapidated bungalow with the door open. The light in the room was dim, and just as he reached the door, a thick smell of blood assaulted his senses. Tong Gang covered his nose and used the flashlight he carried with him to illuminate the scene in the room. When he aimed the beam at the bamboo bed by the wall, his eyes immediately widened. A man's corpse was lying there, and deep red blood was constantly flowing from his forehead.
Ten minutes later, the police officers from the police station arrived at the scene. A few men in uniforms got out of the car. The one in front looked to be in his thirties. He had a square face and thick eyebrows. He saw Tong Gang guarding the door of the bungalow and went forward to ask,"
"Did you call the police?"
"That's right. My name is Tong Gang. I'm 24 years old this year and have graduated from the police academy in Yun City. I'll officially join the police station in my jurisdiction tomorrow.”
The man sized up Tong Gang in front of him. He had a high nose bridge, a determined gaze, and a thin face. "Where is the body?" he asked. "It's inside."
Under Tong Gang's lead, a few policemen walked into the crime scene. One of the policemen turned on the fluorescent lights in the room. Tong Gang suddenly said,"You shouldn't have touched the switch!"
The policeman standing by the wall was a 28-year-old young man named Hu Zhiyong. He had worked in the police station for five years. He looked at Tong Gang and smiled."Why?"
" Because the switch might have the murderer's fingerprints on it," Tong Gang said with a serious expression." In a dark environment, the murderer couldn't have hit the victim between the eyebrows." Unless he brought night vision goggles."
Hu Zhiyong was stunned by the young man's words, and he subconsciously withdrew his hand from the switch. The policeman standing beside the body smiled and said,""I didn't expect you to be so observant. By the way, my surname is Liu. My name is Liu Dawei. I'm the director of the local police station.”
Tong Gang was stunned for a moment, then he immediately stood up straight and saluted."Hello, Director!" Liu Dawei waved his hand and said," You'll only be a police officer tomorrow. Today, you're just an ordinary citizen, so you can't participate in the investigation. Wait outside."”
"But I'm the only witness who found the crime scene, and I know what the murderer was wearing." Tong Gang's eyes widened.”"If I tell you to go out, then go out. Don't talk too much!”
Hu Zhiyong, who had been scolded previously, found an opportunity. Tong Gang pursed his lips and returned to the square unwillingly. Liu Dawei called Xiao Li over and said,"Check the body and see if there are any discoveries.”
Xiao Li was a talented student at the police station. He was 25 years old and was 1.8 meters tall. He was a rigorous and meticulous person. He put on a pair of plastic gloves and squatted beside the corpse. He carefully observed the bloody hole on the deceased's forehead and said,
"The bullet entered from the front of the forehead and exited from the back of the head. Then, the bullet penetrated the bed. After three consecutive obstructions, the bullet should be here.”Xiao Li bent down and found a deformed bullet under the front end of the bamboo bed. He took out a sealed bag from his pocket and carefully stuffed the bullet into it. Then, he checked the victim's pupils and the blood on the body. He said,
"Other than the wound between the eyebrows, there were no other injuries. The time of death is estimated to be 15 minutes ago, which is 23:06.”
Xiao Li stood up and looked around the room. Other than a few stools, there was a small coffee table. He saw an ashtray on the coffee table, so he used his hand to measure the temperature of the cigarette butt and said,
"There are no signs of a fight in the room. It's very likely that an acquaintance committed the crime. I'll bring the ashtray and cigarette butts back to the city bureau's forensics department to see if there are any findings.”
Although Tong Gang, who was standing outside the door, could not participate in the investigation, he was doing the same thing as Xiao Li in his heart. He suddenly saw two footprints under the coffee table. Based on his visual estimation, these footprints should belong to a man. Very few women's footprints could reach 42 to 43 yards. He then looked at the soles of the deceased's feet. They were less than 38 yards tall. Needless to say, it was definitely left behind by the murderer.
Xiao Li found the footprints and took a photo with his camera. In less than a few minutes, the police returned to the house. Tong Gang looked at Liu Dawei and said,"Director, do you need my help?"
Liu Dawei smiled." Go home and sleep. I'll be waiting for you in the office at eight tomorrow morning."”
Tong Gang took a deep breath as he watched the corpse being carried away by the police. The crime scene was cordoned off with yellow tape, and outsiders were not allowed to enter. Seeing this situation, he could only lower his head and return home. Late at night, Tong Gang tried his best to recall the murderer's appearance, but due to the rush of time and the sudden nature of the matter, he couldn't remember at all.
At eight o'clock in the morning, Tong Gang appeared at Liu Dawei's desk on time and placed his information and work letter in front of him. Liu Dawei held a cigarette in his hand and said,
"I heard that you performed well in school. Not only are you good at fighting, but you're also very quick-witted.”
Tong Gang straightened his back and looked at the five-starred red flag behind Liu Dawei. He said in a serious tone,"Because I want to catch the bad guys, eliminate the violent, and maintain social order and the safety of ordinary people. But the most important reason is that my father used to be a police officer.”
Liu Dawei saw Tong Gang's serious expression and smiled.""I hope you didn't become a police officer because you want to be a hero. The police are a disciplined force and have to abide by the arrangements of your superiors.”
"Understood!"
Liu Dawei flicked the ash into the ashtray and smiled."Alright then, go buy me breakfast now. I'm a little hungry.”
