"Qu Sen, where are you going?"
The surveillance cameras in the room were not installed for nothing. Qu Sen had just reached the staircase when the bespectacled girl on duty came out of the room and stopped him.
"Ah, there's an emergency. I have to go to the Criminal Police Unit." Qu Sen replied without changing his expression.
"Then … did you tell Teacher Gao?" The bespectacled girl had just arrived and had not encountered such a situation. She did not know if she should let him go.
"She turned off her phone. I'll come back once I'm done. Okay, the leader is waiting for me. I have to hurry over. You should rest. "Qu Sen comforted her and went downstairs while putting on his coat.
"Hey ~" The bespectacled girl wanted to stop Qu Sen, but she did not dare to speak loudly. She could only watch as Qu Sen left. She stood there for more than ten seconds before she turned around and jogged to the doctor's office on the other side of the corridor.
Qu Sen did not care about that. After he left the Psychological Intervention Center, he stood by the roadside and waited for a while. He then called a taxi and went straight to the Criminal Police Unit.
Just as he paid the taxi fare and got out of the car, his phone rang. Qu Sen looked at the caller ID and pressed the answer button.
"What's wrong with you? Can't you stop for a while at night?" A dissatisfied voice came from the phone.
"I'm so sleepy. Why would a grandson not sleep if there's nothing to do?" Qu Sen's voice was louder than? And dissatisfied.
"Ah? You really have something to do? " Qu Sen asked subconsciously.
"Nonsense, I'm still wearing the shoes I took from Ruan Chuntang. Zhou Li threw the leather shoes he bought for me up the mountain."
"…" Qu Sen? She was speechless for a moment. She could not say whether Qu Sen's reason for running out was appropriate or not.
"Okay, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'll go back to sleep after I change my shoes." Qu Sen said and hung up the phone. He walked into the Criminal Police Unit.
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night for the members of the Criminal Police Unit Wu Entai Special Task Force.
It was already past ten o 'clock, but the building was still brightly lit and bustling.
"Hey, Brother Qu Sen, you came just in time!" Xiao Mao, who was walking out with his right arm in a sling, shouted when he saw Qu Sen.
"What is it?" Qu Sen gently pinched Xiao Mao's injured area and asked.
"It just so happens that I want to go out and pack some things for supper. Can you help me drive the car?" Xiao Mao gestured at the car keys in his hand with his uninjured hand.
Qu Sen took the key and asked with a frown, "There's no one else in your group. You're just a wounded soldier. Go buy some food!"
"Hey, everyone is busy. The leader asked me to go back and rest, but I can't stay here." Xiao Mao was still smiling, but his face was sallow. It was obvious that he had bled a lot in the afternoon.
"Forget it. Hurry up and find a place to lie down. I'll go by myself." Qu Sen took the car keys and left without letting Xiao Mao follow him.
The Great Wall SUV that Gao Sheng often drove had a very deep clutch. Qu Sen turned off the engine several times on the way there before he finally drove to Brother Huang's stall.
He rummaged through his wallet and took out eight tickets. He handed them to Brother Huang and told him that all the members of the Special Task Force were working overtime. He didn't know the exact number of people, but he told everyone to prepare as long as they were full.
Brother Huang didn't know how many times he had accepted takeaway orders from the Criminal Police Unit. He immediately sent a worker to the surrounding stalls to buy more rice. The three stoves in the shop also started working at the same time.
Half an hour later, more than 30 servings of seafood fried rice, rice, and soup were packed. Brother Huang sent a worker to help Qu Sen to the car and gave Qu Sen 300 yuan.
Qu Sen was just about to decline when Brother Huang said, "Hurry up and send it back while it's still hot. I won't pay for it."
Qu Sen didn't hesitate. He took the money and thanked Brother Huang. He turned around and drove back.
When Qu Sen returned to the Criminal Police Unit, it was almost eleven o 'clock at night. He went into the building and called a few people to come out and help him carry things. Finally, Qu Sen saw Gao Sheng with bloodshot eyes and a leg in a cast.
"Why did you come here in the middle of the night?" Gao Sheng took the bag of fried rice and hot soup from Qu Sen and asked.
"Shoes." Qu Sen raised his foot to show the sneakers on his feet.
"What's wrong with the shoes?" Gao Sheng asked curiously.
"These were taken from Ruan Chuntang's feet. My shoes are still on the mountain."
Gao Sheng slapped his forehead and said, "I remember now. Old Merchant said you were brave enough to run away with a dead person's shoes."
"Hey, I was too anxious to care about that." Qu Sen slammed his butt on the chair and asked, "He didn't throw my shoes away, right?"
"Don't worry. Old Merchant probably asked someone to put them away for you." As Gao Sheng spoke, he finished the soup in one gulp. He poured the leftovers on top of the fried rice and began to eat.
"Where is he?" Qu Sen asked.
"He's been guarding Zhou Chongyu in the hospital. Ning Jiamu is already lying in the morgue," Gao Sheng said vaguely with a mouth full of fried rice.
Qu Sen waited for Gao Sheng to finish the fried rice and poured him a glass of water before asking in a low voice, "I see that everyone outside doesn't look too good. Were there a lot of casualties today?"
Gao Sheng nodded and said, "Three civilians were injured. A girl's calf was crushed by the crowd in a panic. She might become disabled.
Wu Meng from the second team couldn't be saved and was sacrificed. Jiang Ercheng from the fifth team had his right leg amputated. He was sent to the ICU after eight o 'clock in the evening. Zhao Yuliu and Sheng Shui from the narcotics team were also there.
Whether the three of them can survive or not depends on the situation tonight. Not counting the gunshot wounds, there were more than ten people in the two teams who were injured by grenades and hospitalized. "
"Are you okay?" Qu Sen asked with concern.
There were so many casualties in the operation. If the higher-ups wanted to hold him accountable, Gao Sheng, as the on-site commander, would definitely not be able to escape.
"Sigh, I'm just waiting to be punished." Gao Sheng smiled bitterly.
"You can't be blamed for today's situation. The operation suddenly changed from surveillance to arrest. It's inevitable that there would be mistakes. Besides, none of the main suspects escaped. Even if you didn't get credit, you should at least get credit for your hard work! "Qu Sen was a little anxious.
Whether it was in the military or the police force, being punished was not something that could be casually said. First of all, when the time came for a normal promotion, it would definitely be affected.
"You injured civilians and even let a messenger run away. No matter what, you have to be punished." Gao Sheng acted as if he was used to it. "Besides, there was a mistake in the investigation beforehand. We missed a person and didn't even know what kind of weapons he had. It's not wrong to be punished."
"Did you find out the identity of the person who escaped?" Qu Sen didn't want to keep talking about depressing things, so he changed the topic.
"We went through the entire database and didn't find a match. Preliminary judgment is that he should be a foreigner who illegally came in. The warrant for his arrest has been sent to the surrounding counties and cities. Right now, the whole world is looking for him. "Gao Sheng habitually leaned back in his chair and rubbed his stomach with his hand.
"Yo, there's food. Where's my share?" Jia Chengliang's voice came before he entered the room.
Gao Sheng saw that he was in a good mood, so he asked, "You're awake?"
Jia Chengliang took a portion of food from the table in the large office outside and walked into Gao Sheng's office. He smiled and said, "I'm awake. The doctor at the hospital said that other than his penis being saved, there aren't many problems. The old man is really lucky! "
"What about our people? Any updates?" Gao Sheng asked again.
"They're still stable. A few of them will inevitably be left with disabilities." Jia Chengliang's mood dropped as he spoke, but he quickly cheered up again. "Saving our lives is more important than anything else!"
After he finished speaking, he took a chair in front of Gao Sheng's desk and began to stuff food into his mouth.
"Comrade Jia, you're about to be punished, but you're still in a good mood." Qu Sen saw that the two of them had finished talking about serious matters, so he joked to ease the somewhat depressing atmosphere in the room.
As the leader of the task force, Gao Sheng couldn't avoid being punished. As the deputy leader, Jia Chengliang couldn't escape either.
"Hey, I've been through a lot. It's nothing!" Jia Chengliang laughed. He indeed looked like he had been through a lot.
"Alright, you're generous. Where are my shoes?" Qu Sen asked about serious matters.
"Zhu Ye is keeping them for you." Jia Chengliang lowered his head and looked at Qu Sen's feet as he spoke. Then he gave him a thumbs up and said while spitting out rice, "You're really ruthless. I admire you."
"Eat your food. When I changed my shoes, Ruan Chuntang was still warm. In theory, he's not dead." Qu Sen said casually, then got up and went to find Zhu Ye.
"…" Jia Chengliang was speechless. He lowered his head and looked at the seafood fried rice in the convenience box. He didn't know why, but he suddenly felt that he wasn't that hungry anymore.
He changed his shoes at Zhu Ye's place, then put Ruan Chuntang's sneakers in a plastic bag and asked Zhu Ye to send it to the forensic doctor later. Qu Sen didn't disturb the police who were working overtime. He left the Criminal Police Unit alone and took a taxi.

"Wake up!" The sound of the electronic speaker seemed to ring in his ears, waking Qu Sen up from his deep sleep.
Qu Sen could tell that it was Gao Sheng? He couldn't help but complain to the air, "Why are you shouting so early in the morning?"
As Qu Sen expected, the push-button communication device in the room was just a decoration.
Qu Sen didn't press the call button at all when he spoke. Gao Sheng? The voice sounded again in the next second, "What do you mean early in the morning? It's already past nine!"
"Do you provide food here?" When Qu Sen heard that it was nine o 'clock, he hurriedly got up from the bed.
"It's already past breakfast time. Wait for lunch."
Gao Sheng? It sounded very irresponsible, but she still prepared a bowl of instant noodles for Qu Sen. She also solemnly informed Qu Sen that he would be staying at the center for two more days.
After completely confirming that there were no problems, Qu Sen could only go back to work after she and the center's director signed the papers.
"Stay here for two days! What do you want me to do? "Qu Sen felt that his head had suddenly become twice as big.
"As long as you don't break the law and don't disturb other patients who are undergoing rehabilitation, do whatever you want!" Gao Sheng's answer was very simple.
"…" Qu Sen was too lazy to argue with him. He simply went back to the room and called Sun Miao, asking him to send his laptop and phone charger over. He planned to use these two days to properly revise his thesis.
He sat in the room and calmly revised his thesis for the whole day. Originally, he could stay for another day and go back. However, the next night, Qu Sen was stuck on the wording of an argument in the thesis in the middle of the night.
After a long time, he simply turned off the computer and lay on the bed for a while. In the end, he still couldn't figure it out, so he simply went out of the room in annoyance and strolled back and forth in the corridor.
When the nurse on duty saw this from the surveillance camera, she came out of the on-call room and asked him softly what he was doing. At that time, Qu Sen was thinking about something and didn't notice. As a result, he was miserably mistaken for sleepwalking.
The next day, when Qu Sen woke up, he excitedly went to find Gao Sheng. He signed the papers to be discharged, but Gao Sheng ended up being discharged. He first chatted with him for a while, then suddenly asked, "Have you ever sleepwalked before?"
"Why would I sleepwalk? I've never had that problem." After Qu Sen finished speaking, he realized that there might be a problem. Gao Sheng? It was impossible for him to suddenly ask such a question.
