chasing the dark

Chapter 25 The Floating Corpse
Duan Baili opened the file bag and said, "Changed office? What mistake did you make this time?"

"Comrade Duan, can you wish me well? I've been doing well recently." Ye Zhanzhou said helplessly.

"How good is it? Isn't the complaint mailbox on the first floor of your bureau full?" Duan Baili showed a smirk, "That can only explain one problem, people don't like to write letters anymore."

"Anyway, not this week." Ye Zhanzhou's words obviously lacked confidence.

Jiang Yu didn't think it was a big deal when he watched the excitement, so he said lightly: "Today is Monday."

Ye Zhanzhou gritted his teeth: "When adults talk, children don't interrupt."

Jiang Yu ignored him and asked Duan Baili, "Teacher, do you want me to do some homework first?"

Lao Duan was teaching undergraduates today, and there was less than 5 minutes for the break between classes. She thought that Ye Zhanzhou came here specially, maybe the two of them had something to talk about.

In the past, when encountering similar situations, she always went to the top for a while.

"No, I'll let them think about the case just mentioned first, and ask questions later." Duan Baili blinked slyly.

As his senior student, Jiang Yu certainly knew what it meant to ask questions. She silently lit a candle in her heart for the students who were thinking hard in the classroom.

"Teacher Duan, Deputy Bureau Qiao insisted on asking me to come, so it's because you have something to ask me?" Ye Zhanzhou asked.

Duan Baili nodded: "As expected of Lao Qiao's right-hand man, he is really careful."

Ye Zhanzhou broke it down mercilessly: "Just tell me what's going on, don't put a high hat on me."

"Ahem..." Duan Baili coughed twice, and said, "That's right, Jiang Yu is now in his second year of graduate school and will start an internship soon. After much deliberation, I think your place is quite suitable."

After hearing this, Ye Zhanzhou frowned.

"Teacher Duan, I..."

But as soon as he opened his mouth, Duan Baili raised his hand to interrupt him: "I know that small cases are all in sub-bureaus or grass-roots police stations. Only major and important cases will go to your city bureau for criminal investigation. It will be dangerous. But if I am trained so Wouldn’t it be a pity for students who have been there for many years to be placed in the police station to mediate neighborhood conflicts.”

"Jiang Yu's grades are outstanding in all subjects, and her physical fitness is not inferior to boys, otherwise she would not have been sent to the last mission." Duan Baili stopped Ye Zhanzhou from speaking again, "She doesn't have many courses this semester, let's get used to it first. Get used to it, and the formal practice after the end of the semester will stay in your team."

"Female detectives are in short supply, especially good seedlings like Jiang Yu. After passing this village, there will be no such shop. Don't regret it..."

The old man Duan was eloquent, but Jiang Yu, who was praised like a flower, straightly supported his forehead.Is she a slow seller?Do you want to buy and sell like this?
"Teacher Duan, how bad I am, you are so eager to push me out, is it because you are afraid that no internship unit will accept me?"

"Of course not!" Duan Baili frowned, "I know my students. It's for Lao Qiao's sake. If others ask me, I won't give it!"

Ye Zhanzhou glanced at the embarrassed Jiang Yu, and he really couldn't say no if he refused, so he smiled: "Teacher Duan, I just want to say that I welcome Jiang Yu to our team."

"You..." Duan Baili stretched his brows and eyes, "If you have a good eye, let me tell you, you have to bring someone to me."

"Don't worry, I will take it well..." Ye Zhanzhou felt a little awkward in the middle of speaking, and touched his nose.

"I don't worry about anything else, just a little bit." Duan Baili stretched out a finger, "Don't infect her with your bad habits."

"I'm very upright, so there's nothing..." Before he could finish speaking, the cell phone in Ye Zhanzhou's pocket rang.

He made an apologetic gesture, took out his phone and pressed the answer button.

The other party didn't know what to say, so he frowned slightly: "Understood, send me the location, I'll go there now."

"Is there a case?" Duan Baili asked.

"Yes, I have to go. Whenever Jiang Yu wants to report, just go there." Ye Zhanzhou said as he walked out.

Duan Baili quickly winked at Jiang Yu: "I'll talk about the report later, Xiao Jiang, you go over with Zhanzhou and have a look."

Jiang Yu naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he took his schoolbag, waved to Duan Baili, and quickened his pace to catch up with Ye Zhanzhou.

The police jeep galloped out from the gate of the police university, with a beautiful tail swing, merged into the traffic flow of the main road.Jiang Yu felt that if there was no door blocking him, he would definitely be thrown out, so he quickly grabbed the armrest.

Ye Zhanzhou said while driving: "A floating corpse was fished up from the Fenghe River. If you regret it, there is still time."

Jiang Yu didn't feel frightened when he heard the word floating corpse, and replied calmly: "Vice Captain Ye, don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble."

"It's easy to say, wait until you get to the place and see if you can maintain your composure."

Ye Zhanzhou had a good impression of Jiang Yu, but he didn't want her to work under him.But today's posture is obviously due to the collusion between the two old guys, Qiao Mingshan and Duan Baili.

If you don't agree, old man Duan will definitely have to grind.In addition, he didn't want Jiang Yu to come to Taiwan, so he agreed.

Thinking that there is a chance to let this little girl back out of difficulties, it is best to propose to leave by herself.

Unexpectedly, there was a case here, and it was a floating corpse case.

It's best that the little girl was scared away as soon as she arrived at the scene, so he can't be blamed.

The car drove for about 10 minutes and arrived at Fenghe River in the north of the city.The Feng River originates from Changling County in the northeast of Mingyang City and flows from northeast to southwest with a total length of 230 kilometers.Among them, 140 kilometers are located in Mingyang City. It enters from the Mingbei New District in the north of Mingyang and traverses the entire city.

In Mingyang City in June, after experiencing a short spring, the temperature rose rapidly, even before noon, it reached over [-] degrees.

Ding Xuan, who was standing on the side of the road, wiped the fine sweat from his forehead and greeted him: "Brother Ye, you..."

Seeing Jiang Yu coming down from the co-pilot, he froze for a moment and lowered his voice: "Brother, what's going on?"

"Why don't you tell me?" Ye Zhanzhou raised his chin towards Jiang Yu, "Come and listen too."

Ding Xuan temporarily suppressed his curiosity and said: "Oh, that's right. The corpse was discovered by a few aunts who danced in the square. They danced in the open space over there every day. Today, after the dance, we strolled by the river. When we found someone in the water, we called the police. The deceased had no ID or mobile phone, so his identity is unclear."

"How did you get here?" Ye Zhanzhou asked.

The Criminal Investigation Detachment of the Municipal Bureau handles major cases that cannot be solved by the various branches, or series of cases that cross regions, multiple hair types, and involve many people. For example, the discovery of a dead person in the river can be handled by the branch.
