Chapter 4: Silent Night
In the blink of an eye, everyone was silent They see to the sudden darkness Two seconds later there was a heavy sigh, followed by a loud voice ”Clear, clear, no danger Everyone relax”
Gu shi+ slipped through a crack between two bigaccustoht shone froure on the farthest balcony six feet away, a swinging figure The figure was hanging high up,the silence all around them eerie
Soorously and cliators grabbed the suspect and laid hiently on the floor One of them felt his neck for a pulse, then promptly stood up and shook his head helplessly
Gu shi+ spotted a suicide note on the corner of a table, six pages of large, scribbled characters, each one seeh it was obvious thethe co for death, she still put on gloves and slipped the suicide note into an evidence bag and prepared to collect fingerprints for verification
That day the ht a six-pack of beer, a box of beef in chili sauce and half a ”three yellow” chicken, and prepared to go back hoame, drink some beer, and relax a bit As usual he used his cell phone flashlight to illuminate the dark hallway and was shocked soon the steps, and overturned the food in the plastic bag he was carrying
”Who pasted my picture up in the hallway?” He couldn't believe it, and stealthily crept back out to the entrance and looked out His photograph had been pasted at alhtened and took the steps two at a ti to rip the photo down
Back home, he inspected the photo It was actually a sketched portrait that looked almost exactly like him, with the words ”Wanted” written at the top He knew in an instant he was done for He figured he would definitely get the death penalty He had heard from a friend inside that the process fro one He decided it was better to get it over with, that suicide was the less painful route And so in the blink of an eye, what had been his celebratory meal after each ”harvest” now had become his last supper
His grand, calculated success had fizzled out, all because of some person's portrait sketch Gu shi+ could not accept that She really couldn't understand why her father would rather trust a non-professional newcoation skills To her, a portrait sketch couldn't replace traditional criation techniques, and definitely couldn't rival the accuracy and science of trace analysis If a sketch provided the lead for investigation, then science was the basis for solving and guaranteeing the case This ti a dead mouse
The culprit had actually committed suicide before they could make the arrest! And he was responsible for three homicide cases, one of them which had occurred in another place The suicide note explained it all The news fro Chi
”Kid, you've becoreat feat I didn't ratulate hi
”I was lucky, that's all I like when the hero saves the beauty, and I have a stronger rapport with pretty ladies, so it was a good cooperation, which made my sketch more accurate If the victim had been someone else my pencil would likely not have been so effective”
Gu Zhichang laughed heartily Zhang Chi was also in a gooda nice duet
After they'd had a good laugh Gu Zhichang becaht of your performance on this special case, I've decided to apply you for a third-class merit It will be counted for our department I've already asked your supervisor for instructions”
”Mr Gu, you're too kind I really didn't dofuss”
”No, we need to h profile to let everyone know our internal public security system has such a special talent like you A talented person cannot be overlooked As a o even further I hope you will consider joining our criation team”
”Oh?”
”First, I wanted to consult with you about it I hope you will seriously consider it I know that a lot of young people yearn for the post you have with the political section, but in my experience, it won't help you that much I know in your heart you want to be a real police officer In this line of work the career advancement is slow and the work is more intense, and it's a step lower than the political section office But the physical training it offers for a young person is obvious, and you will really be able to do soood work”
Zhang Chi's face beca had seen through his heart Whata case?
