Although there was a new car under his name, Han Bin still drove the old Passat to work.
Young people were working hard, and driving a second-hand car made them feel at ease. An old car was not afraid of scratching, and it was worry-free.
There were no new cases arranged in the next few days, and Team One was much more relaxed.
Although the city's criminal investigation team had a large jurisdiction, unless it was a major case, it would not be directly reported to the city bureau. Ordinary cases would be handled by the sub-bureau.
Only cases that the sub-bureau lacked manpower or couldn't handle would be reported to the city bureau.
Of course, no new cases did not mean that Han Bin had nothing to do.
The files in the filing cabinet were piled up as high as a person, and they were all unsolved cases.
There were two main reasons why it was an unsolved case. The first reason was that the sub-bureau reported it a little late, and they had missed the best time to investigate. Many clues had been destroyed.
Another reason was that the case was very difficult. The suspect did not leave too many clues, and the investigation by the city bureau was still unable to solve the case.
Of course, these unsolved cases could not be solved before, but it did not mean that they could not be solved in the future. As long as the suspect committed another crime, or there was new evidence, it was still possible to solve the case.
Some time ago, the control was stricter, and many suspects who had been on the run for many years were arrested. Some suspects knew that they could not hide anymore, and even took the initiative to turn themselves in to the police station.
When Han Bin was free, he would also look through the previous files to see if there were any unsolved cases that might be useful in future investigations.
In the past few days, as long as he had time, Han Bin would go to the Four Seasons Restaurant and ask Wang Ting to have dinner and chat. Sometimes, he would help taste the dishes and give some simple suggestions.
When he first tried the dishes, Han Bin more or less wanted to cater to her taste, but after spending some time together, Han Bin felt that this feeling was very good, and it did not feel forced.
Some things could not be forced, and it could be seen after a long time.
After all, Han Bin was also a foodie. Most of the time he spent with his colleagues was to talk about work. He also wanted to change something new. He could not always be in the police station, and he had to have his own private life and hobbies.
Han Bin did not have any special hobbies, and he had to pick a few things. It was nothing more than beautiful women, food, novels, movies, and occasionally a little wine.
Tasting dishes and chatting about the cooking methods and eating methods of delicacies was also a form of relaxation.
When he was not busy, Han Bin would personally cook a few dishes. This was life.
After spending some time together, the relationship between Han Bin and Wang Ting was much closer.
…
City Criminal Investigation Team Second Squadron, Team One Office.
In the morning, after Han Bin came to the office, he poured a cup of green tea and had a short morning meeting.
For any organization, meetings were inevitable. Not only could they convey the intentions of their superiors, but they could also understand the situation at the grassroots level in time. Meeting was not a derogatory term. Sometimes, a ten-minute meeting was better than working for half a day.
Of course, there was a limit to the meeting. It was fine as long as things were explained clearly and arrangements were made.
Take Han Bin for example. The meeting this morning only lasted for a few minutes. It was enough to understand the progress of each team member. There were no other arrangements.
After the meeting, Han Bin went to Ma Jingbo's office again. There was a new case at Team Two, and Ma Jingbo had to follow him to the crime scene. After chatting for a while, he chased Han Bin out.
At the same time, he also recruited Wang Xiao and Bao Xing.
After returning to the office, Han Bin poured a cup of coffee and browsed the latest shoe styles online. He then looked out the window and stared at the pedestrians on the road. The morning passed just like that.
At noon, Han Bin was too lazy to move, so he just ate something at the cafeteria.
Based on the current situation, he should be able to get off work on time tonight. He could go to the Four Seasons Restaurant to eat something good.
After lunch, Han Bin took a break.
In the afternoon, Han Bin continued to look at the files of the old case.
"Creak …" The door of the office opened.
Ma Jingbo walked in from outside. When he saw it, he walked straight to the water dispenser and drank a cup of cold water.
Huang Qianqian asked, "Captain Ma, do you want me to pour you a cup of tea?"
Ma Jingbo waved his hand. "No need. I have a meeting in a while."
"Captain Ma, what meeting are you having?"
"Something good." Ma Jingbo smiled and pulled a chair to sit down. "Our team solved three murder cases in a row in the Foreign Language Institute. Didn't Chief Feng say that he would give us a reward? It's already been approved."
"That's fast!"
Everyone was excited when they heard that.
"Foreign affairs is not a small matter. The municipal committee is quite concerned about it. They applied for a group second-class merit and an individual second-class merit for us." Ma Jingbo pointed at Han Bin.
"Han Bin, don't forget to treat us."
Everyone immediately understood that the individual second-class merit should be given to Han Bin. However, it made sense when they thought about it. Han Bin was the only field agent in the entire city's Criminal Investigation Unit who was proficient in English.
Han Bin was also the one who was interrogating these three cases. They really couldn't do it without him.
While they congratulated Han Bin, the other team members were also very happy.
Contributions naturally came with rewards. A group second-class merit would be awarded 3,000 yuan per person. The municipal bureau would also give additional rewards and allowances, which should add up to about 5,000 yuan. This was also a reward for their hard work.
Han Bin's group second-class merit was awarded 3,000 yuan and individual second-class merit was awarded 10,000 yuan. Coupled with his basic salary and allowances, his income should be about 20,000 yuan.
Han Bin was in a good mood. Money was one thing, but the merit itself was more important.
Han Bin was a newcomer, so he really needed a merit. So far, it seemed that he was doing very well. He had participated in the first case and received a second-class merit. It could be said that he had made a name for himself.
At least, no one would gossip behind his back and say that he was transferred to the bureau because of his connections.
When one's mood was good, time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was time to get off work.
Han Bin drove directly to the Four Seasons Restaurant.
The restaurant's waiter was already very familiar with Han Bin. He was already angry and didn't even pay attention to Han Bin. He found a seat by the window and sat down.
Han Bin yawned and began to play with his phone. He had already sent a WeChat message to Wang Ting. When she was not busy, she would naturally come over.
Han Bin had basically eaten all of the dishes from the Four Seasons Restaurant. There were expensive ones and cheap ones.
For example, lobster, Wagyu beef, and tuna. These ingredients were more expensive, but it was okay to eat them occasionally.
The cheap ramen and fried rice cost 20 to 30 yuan per serving, which was enough for an ordinary person to eat.
If it was Han Bin, it was definitely not enough. Usually, he would order more dishes.
Of course, Han Bin did not pay every time. Sometimes, Wang Ting would invite him over in the name of tasting dishes.
A fragrant breeze blew over. Wang Ting, who had her hair in a ponytail, walked over gracefully and sat opposite Han Bin.
Han Bin glanced at her and said with concern, "Tingting, why do you look a little tired?"
Wang Ting yawned. "I stayed up late last night watching dramas. I didn't have much energy today. If you hadn't sent me a WeChat message, I would have gone home to rest."
Han Bin glanced at his watch. "Why don't we not eat at the restaurant? I'll send you home directly."
"You're already here. I can't let you go hungry."
"I'll buy some ingredients and go to your house to cook. I'll let you have a taste of my cooking." Han Bin smiled.
Wang Ting looked doubtful. "Just because you can eat doesn't mean you can cook. I think you're just an armchair strategist. I don't want to be a lab rat."
"I don't mind being a lab rat. Why don't you cook for me some day?"
"Just you wait. When I'm in a good mood, I'll show you my cooking skills."
Han Bin pointed at his watch. "How are we going to wait? By the minute or by the second?"
Wang Ting snorted. "By the year."
Han Bin pinched his fingers. "As the saying goes, one day apart feels like three years. If that's the case, it's only been a few days."
"Pfft …" Wang Ting laughed. Her beautiful face looked even more beautiful. "Stop joking. Tell me what you want to eat. Send me home after you're done."
Han Bin opened his mouth. Just as he was about to speak, a voice came from the side.
"Team Leader."
Han Bin was stunned.
Wang Ting stopped smiling and sat up straight.
The voice was familiar to both of them.
Han Bin touched his nose. "Qianqian, why are you here?"
Huang Qianqian blinked her big eyes. "Team Leader, I should be the one asking you. Why are you here?"
"Oh, I'm having dinner with my girlfriend."
Huang Qianqian grinned. "Ah, so you're not single? Where's sister-in-law? I'll treat her to dinner. "
"Ahem …"
Wang Ting coughed lightly and felt a little awkward. "I'm here. You don't need to treat. Go upstairs first. Team Leader Han has a date with his girlfriend. Don't be a third wheel."
"That's true. Team Leader, I'll go up first. When sister-in-law comes, I'll come and greet her." Huang Qianqian didn't think much of it and turned to go upstairs.
"You didn't know she was coming?"
"She didn't send you a WeChat message?"
The two of them smiled at the same time.
After watching Huang Qianqian go upstairs, Han Bin didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "A few days ago, I called Qianqian over for a chat in the afternoon to ask about her life after work."
"After asking her for two days, I felt that the way Qianqian looked at me was a little different. Bao Xing stared at me like I was a thief. I didn't dare to ask again. "
"Hehe." Wang Ting chuckled. "Since Qianqian is here, she'll probably go to my house. You don't need to send me home tonight. You should go back early."
"If I leave now, what will you say?"
Wang Ting pretended to be deep in thought. "I'll say that your girlfriend dumped you and you left in a fit of anger."
Han Bin was speechless.
"I'm just kidding. Didn't you say you were going to cook for me? Go back and practice your culinary skills. I'll have to inspect you in a few days." Wang Ting snorted.
"If it doesn't taste good, you might really get dumped."
Han Bin smiled. "You're always welcome to come and inspect me."
After chatting for a while, Wang Ting sent Han Bin to the entrance of the restaurant and watched Han Bin drive away.
Wang Ting looked upstairs again. There was still a little plague there. She wasn't easy to deal with. She hadn't decided if she should tell Huang Qianqian about her relationship with Han Bin.
Wang Ting didn't hide it on purpose. She just felt that it wasn't the right time yet. Who knew that she would bump into Huang Qianqian today?
Wang Ting went upstairs. As soon as she entered the private room, she saw Huang Qianqian touching up her makeup with a mirror.
Wang Ting was annoyed and amused at the same time. "Qianqian, what are you doing?"
Huang Qianqian put down the mirror. "Is our team leader's girlfriend here? I can't lose out to him. "
Wang Ting was startled. "Don't tell me you're interested in Han Bin?"
"Cousin, what are you thinking? I'm not interested in him at all."
"Then why are you comparing yourself to his girlfriend?"
"It's weird. A few days ago, our team leader chatted with me in the afternoon and even asked about my plans after work. At that time, I was a little worried if he liked me. I was conflicted for a long time. Later on, he ignored me again as if everything had returned to normal. Don't you think it's weird?"
Wang Ting couldn't help but ask, "What are you conflicted about? Don't tell me you really like Han Bin? "
"Not really." Huang Qianqian shook her head. "But our team leader is really outstanding. He's good at handling cases and speaks English well. If he could find such a boyfriend, it would be quite an honor. If he really pursues me, I'm afraid I'll be swayed. "
Wang Ting smiled. "So you're looking for a boyfriend just to look good?"
"I'm not sure."
Huang Qianqian shook her head. "To tell you the truth, when I saw Team Leader Han in the shop, I was shocked. I thought to myself, 'I haven't been here for so long. How could I coincidentally bump into him once in a while? At first, I thought he was following me."
Wang Ting: "…"
Sister, you're thinking too much.
Don't care which day you come, you bump into him.
Of course, Wang Ting only thought about it in her heart. She was also afraid that it would hurt Huang Qianqian.
"Qianqian, don't think too much. Team Leader Han has a girlfriend. Maybe he wanted to ask you where girls like to go after work and you misunderstood."
"Uh, now that you mention it, it seems possible." Huang Qianqian sighed, feeling empty in her heart.
Whether she liked him or not was one thing. Being pursued by an outstanding man gave her a sense of achievement.
Wang Ting asked with concern, "What's wrong? Are you disappointed?"
"No, I'm more relaxed now."
Huang Qianqian smiled. "Before this, I was worried and conflicted. Team Leader Han is so outstanding and he's my leader. What if I agree? Or not? "
Wang Ting: "…"
"Oh right, Sis, is Team Leader Han's girlfriend here?"
"In the shop."
Huang Qianqian asked curiously, "Is she pretty?"
"Very pretty."
Huang Qianqian stood up and said, "Then I have to go down to take a look and say hello."
Wang Ting pulled her back. "Let's not do it today. Let's do it another day so that it won't be awkward for everyone."
"That's true. It's indeed a little awkward to go down now." Huang Qianqian sat down again. "Sis, our team leader is a good person and his English is really good. He's able to talk to foreigners and he's not scared at all. I was thinking whether I should introduce him to you. "
"Don't I know him?"
Huang Qianqian winked. "I mean, introduce him to you as your boyfriend. At that time, I thought that you two were quite compatible."
Wang Ting stretched out her hand and pinched Huang Qianqian's face. "Sis, thank you. I appreciate your kindness and I'll remember it."
"Ah, it hurts. Let go." Huang Qianqian hid at the side and bared her canine teeth. "Sis, if you're sincere, treat me to a good meal."
Wang Ting didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Dine and dash. You're still picky."
