Seven o 'clock at night.
Nine Gates Hotpot.
That night, Zheng Kaixuan booked a big private room at Nine Gates Hotpot to invite his old subordinates from Yu Hua Branch.
Everyone from Yu Hua Branch's Third Platoon was there.
One table couldn't fit all of them. Luckily, the private room was big enough and there were two round tables for ten people.
Zheng Kaixuan, Zeng Ping, Han Bin, Zhao Ying, Li Hui, Wei Zimo, Du Qi, and Zhao Ming were at one table. The rest of the team members were at another table.
Seeing his old subordinates, Zheng Kaixuan was in a good mood. "Everyone is busy. It's rare for us to gather together. It's not easy."
Zhao Ming opened a bottle of wine and poured a glass for Zheng Kaixuan.
Zheng Kaixuan held the glass. "This wine was brought by Han Bin. It's a bit old and it's a good wine. Let's have a few more glasses later."
Li Hui smiled and said, "Captain Zheng is treating us, and Captain Han is treating us to wine. Let us bask in your happiness and move up a little."
Zhao Ming coughed. "Ahem … I brought the cigarettes. Everyone, feel free to smoke. There's more after you finish."
Wei Zimo joked. "I was wondering if Captain Zheng smoked Zhonghua before. I was wondering if it was because he was promoted to the provincial office. So it's your cigarette."
Li Hui said seriously, "Team Leader Wei, you're ignorant. Our Third Platoon's Zhao Zhonghua is quite famous."
"Haha …" Everyone laughed.
Zhao Ming didn't feel offended. Instead, he puffed out his chest. Being famous was better than being unknown. There would be a chance for him to be promoted in the future. At least someone would remember him.
Moreover, he had money. He didn't steal or rob. So what if he smoked Zhonghua?
Han Bin smiled. "Team Leader Wei, I heard that you became the team leader of Third Platoon's First Platoon. When are you going to treat us? I'm waiting to hear from you."
Wei Zimo smiled. "I'm still the acting team leader. I was planning to treat you after I became the official team leader. I'm happy that a busy person like Captain Han is here."
Li Hui interrupted, "Old Wei, that's not right of you. When I was the acting team leader, how did you guys make a fuss? The next day, you guys extorted me of my kidney. Why are you treating us after you became the official team leader? You have double standards. "
Wei Zimo squinted his eyes. "We definitely have to treat them. Don't be anxious. They will come one by one."
Ever since Zheng Kaixuan went to the provincial office, Yu Hua Branch's Third Platoon had undergone a huge change. Han Bin went to the city's Criminal Investigation Brigade as the deputy platoon leader.
Ever since Yu Hua Branch sent Zheng Kaixuan to the provincial office for training, they wanted him to take over as the team leader of Yu Hua Branch's Criminal Investigation Team. Han Bin became the deputy team leader of the Criminal Investigation Team.
Back then, the Yu Hua Branch had sent Zheng Kaixuan to the provincial office for training, intending for him to take over as the team leader of the Yu Hua Branch's Criminal Investigation Team. However, Zheng Kaixuan had been valued by the leaders of the provincial office, so he stayed in the Provincial Office's Criminal Investigation Team, Serious Crime Division.
Yu Hua Branch couldn't compete with the provincial office for Zheng Kaixuan, so they promoted Sun Chengying to the acting team leader of Yu Hua Branch's Criminal Investigation Team.
Sun Chengying was promoted to the acting team leader of Yu Hua Branch, and Wei Zimo took over Zhao Ying's position.
Zhao Ying was promoted to the acting team leader of Yu Hua Branch, and Wei Zimo took over Zhao Ying's position as the team leader.
Aside from Han Bin, who was transferred to the City Bureau, everyone else's promotions were related to Zheng Kaixuan.
They were having a hot pot dinner. There were all kinds of dishes on the table. There were fresh vegetables, mushrooms, meat, seafood, and whatever else they wanted.
Zheng Kaixuan stood up. "Come, let me propose a toast to everyone. I wish everyone a smooth career, a happy family, a healthy body, and a safe journey."
A safe journey was the finishing touch. Other professions didn't have such a toast, but the police were a high-risk profession. They had to deal with criminals all day, and it was a blessing to be safe.
As the saying goes, there can't be a feast without wine. Without wine, the atmosphere would be lacking, and the party would be cold.
Wine was like a catalyst that could warm up everyone's relationship.
Wine culture was a neutral term. As long as it was used in moderation, it could bring people closer together.
Li Hui asked, "Captain Zheng, what's the difference between you and Yu Hua Branch when you're transferred to the provincial office?"
Zheng Kaixuan ate a mouthful of food and put down his chopsticks. "The cases that the provincial office receives are more complicated, and they cover a larger area. Sometimes, they'll be in Quan City today, and the next day, they'll be in Wei Hai for investigation. Furthermore, the cases have been reported to the criminal investigation team for a long time, and they've missed the golden period for handling cases. Overall, the cases are more difficult, and the time taken to close them is longer. "
Zhao Ming asked curiously, "Captain Zheng, what big cases have you handled recently? Tell us about them."
Zheng Kaixuan hesitated. It wasn't that he didn't want to tell them, but some cases couldn't be mentioned. After thinking for a while, he said, "There's a case that you guys should be familiar with. It's a cross-regional equipment reselling case. This case was reported to the provincial office by the Qingdao City Public Security Bureau."
Li Hui said subconsciously, "Yes, yes, this case is the 131 Joint Special Case. It was investigated by our team and the municipal criminal investigation team. At that time, Han Bin was the team leader of Team Two, and he was transferred to the municipal bureau after this case."
Since everyone present was involved in this case, Zheng Kaixuan didn't have to worry too much. "The municipal criminal investigation team found two suspects. One is called Song Xinhai, who committed suicide by shooting himself, and the other is called Yang Zhichao, who was transferred to the criminal investigation team."
"Yang Zhichao was just a peripheral member of the equipment reselling case, and Song Xinhai was his contact. Once Song Xinhai died, his contact with the contact was basically cut off, and he didn't provide too many valuable clues."
"We could only sort out the case again according to the files submitted by the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Fujima City, and then compared it with the cases in other cities. We found some similar clues. The scale of this device and tube reselling case was far larger than we thought. It's even beyond the scope of Lu Zhou Province. "
"The equipment reselling case is divided into three intermediaries, the lowest of which is the donor intermediary. There are many donor intermediaries scattered in various areas, and they will look for targets according to the requirements of the recipient intermediary."
"The recipient intermediary is mainly responsible for contacting patients who need organ replacement, and looking for suitable targets according to the patient's needs. These recipient intermediaries usually have a certain level of connections and status, or else the patients wouldn't believe them so easily."
"The black-clothed intermediary is at the top, and they will contact some private clinics and doctors to perform surgery for patients who need organ replacement. He should be at the top of the profit chain, and according to speculation, this person shouldn't be in Lu Zhou. It's very likely that he has a network all over the country, so it's hard to find any specific traces. "
Tian Li snorted, "This kind of person is insane, and he's not afraid of retribution for making this kind of black money."
Li Hui sighed, "I've been to the scene, and it's still fresh in my memory. It's like a slaughterhouse, and people are completely cut up like animals."
Zhao Ming picked up a tripe and crunched it, "In my opinion, this kind of person should be arrested and shot. Otherwise, this evil trend won't be stopped."
Seeing that the atmosphere of the banquet was a little dull, Zeng Ping raised his glass and said, "Come, let's not talk about work anymore. It's not easy for us to get together, so let's toast to Captain Zheng."
"To Captain Zheng."
"Congratulations, Captain Zheng."
"Captain Zheng, don't forget us old subordinates when you go to the Criminal Investigation Team. We also want to follow you and share some of your glory."
"Yeah, not to mention the Criminal Investigation Team, we can also enter the Municipal Public Security Bureau."
Everyone started to talk at the same time.
"I won't forget. I'll definitely think of you guys when I have the chance." Zheng Kaixuan promised.
However, he was still powerless. He was only an ordinary squadron leader in the Major Crimes Division, and he didn't have the ability to promote others even if he wanted to.
As the protagonist of the banquet, Zheng Kaixuan received many toasts, and he didn't refuse any of them. If he couldn't drink a glass, he would drink half a glass. Everyone was familiar with each other, so no one would be calculative.
Even after drinking half a cup, Zheng Kaixuan was still drunk due to the number of people present.
Han Bin and the others also drank a lot, and it could be said that the guests and the host were enjoying themselves.
As a leader, Zheng Kaixuan didn't come back to Qin Island often, so they naturally couldn't let him treat them.
Before he got drunk, Zeng Ping went to pay the bill.
Zheng Kaixuan was transferred to the Criminal Investigation Team because of the support of his old subordinates. He wanted to treat his old subordinates to a meal out of sincerity.
As his successor, Zeng Ping was promoted by Zheng Kaixuan. He also wanted to treat his old leader to a meal, not because of money, but because of his sincerity.
Zheng Kaixuan stayed in Qin Island for two days. On the second day, he treated the leaders of Yu Hua Branch to a meal, and on the third day, he returned to Quan City.
A few days later, Han Bin was smoking by the window in his office when he suddenly heard a commotion. Then, a group of people walked into the Public Security Bureau. There were dozens of them, holding banners, and beating drums. It was a very lively scene.
The first banner read, "Congratulations to the Second Squadron of the Criminal Investigation Team for solving the armed robbery case."
The second banner read, "Thank you to the police for recovering the stolen money. You are the patron saint of the people."
The third banner read, "Thank you to the seventh group of Fangjing Village for expressing our deepest gratitude."
Seeing this banner, Han Bin immediately understood and immediately reported the situation to Ding Xifeng and Ma Jingbo.
A few minutes later, Ding Xifeng, Ma Jingbo, Han Bin, and the rest went downstairs to receive the villagers of Fangjing Village.
The leader was Fang Jinshan, the chief of Fangjing Village. He was holding a banner in his hand. "Solve the case quickly, for the people."
Fang Jinshan knew Han Bin, so he gave the banner to Han Bin immediately.
Han Bin gestured and pointed at Ding Xifeng. "Chief Fang, this is Captain Ding of the Criminal Investigation Team. It's all thanks to his support that we were able to solve the case so quickly."
Fang Jinshan was also a leader, so he immediately understood what Han Bin meant. He handed the banner to Ding Xifeng.
The other villagers also gave them banners. Ma Jingbo, Han Bin, Li Qin, Wang Xiao, and the other team members who were involved in the case all gave them banners.
Although this was not a murder case, it involved the interests of dozens of villagers, so it was no less than a murder case. It was hard not to know that there were dozens of people in the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
The people from the Publicity Department were also alarmed. They came over with cameras and camcorders to capture the lively scene. They even took photos of the police officers and the villagers.
After more than half an hour, the thank-you ceremony ended.
Han Bin sent the villagers to the entrance of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
The village chief, Fang Jinshan, held Han Bin's hand to express his gratitude again. "Captain Han, if you hadn't solved the case, none of us would've thought that Li Shiwei was the traitor. He's an ungrateful bastard."
"Back then, he was poor when he set up the company. He begged me to let the villagers buy shares with their land. Now that the company has grown, according to the previous agreement, we have to pay dividends to the villagers every year. In the end, this kid got jealous and did such a dirty thing. I feel ashamed!"
Fang Jinshan sighed and asked, "Captain Han, how many years will Li Shiwei be sentenced to for robbing so much money?"
Han Bin organized his words and said, "This case is different from ordinary robberies. Li Shiwei's situation is more complicated, and the police are only responsible for arresting him. The court will decide how to sentence him based on the overall situation."
The judges in the court had to go through the first and second trials. Sometimes, the second trial would overturn the first trial. The sentencing was not fixed, and Han Bin would not overstep his authority and say something he was not confident about.
Fang Jinshan sighed. "Li Shiwei is a capable man. He managed to build up the company. He has been talking to me about dividends for the past two years. He hopes to lower the proportion of dividends and invest more money into the development of the company. "
"I have considered this matter and asked the villagers for their opinions. But they were not willing to do so, so I did not agree. However, I did not expect Li Shiwei to do such a thing."
Fang Jinshan had his own selfish motives. Li Shiwei had explained the company's situation very clearly, and Fang Jinshan knew that Li Shiwei's thoughts were not wrong. However, the villagers did not think the same way. They were more concerned about the dividends.
Fang Jinshan, as the village chief, had a lot of prestige, but that was because he had the support of the villagers. Reducing the dividends would affect the interests of most of the villagers. If the villagers did not elect him next time, no matter how well Fang Long Storage Company developed in the future, it would have nothing to do with him.
Everyone had their own selfish motives.
"Captain Han, can I see Li Shiwei?"
"Village Chief Fang, why are you looking for him?"
Fang Jinshan hesitated for a moment. "Li Shiwei has always been in charge of Fang Long Storage Company. The few big clients of the company only recognize him. Now that he is being held by the police, it will affect the company greatly. I would like to meet him and win his support to achieve a win-win situation. "
Fang Jinshan was afraid that Han Bin would misunderstand, so he added, "This is not just for me, but for Fang Long Storage Company and all the villagers of Fang Jing Village. To tell you the truth, other than Li Shiwei, no one knows the current situation of Fang Long Storage Company."
"If Li Shiwei just stands aside and does nothing, the company will be in a mess. By the time we have sorted out the company's situation, most of the clients will have already been poached. Fang Long Storage Company's business will plummet, and I believe that Li Shiwei does not want to see that happen. "
"This company was founded by him, and I believe that he has feelings for the company."
Han Bin nodded. "I understand what you mean. I will report this situation to the higher-ups."
Fang Jinshan shook Han Bin's hand hard. "Thank you, I'll be troubling you then."
"You're welcome."
After watching Fang Jinshan and the others leave, Han Bin relayed Fang Jinshan's request to Ding Xifeng.
As for whether the higher-ups would agree or not, that was not something that Han Bin could control. Someone would contact Fang Jinshan afterwards.
In the next few days, Second Squadron did not receive any new cases.
On Saturday, Han Bin had a day off.
Recently, Wang Ting had not been working, and she was bored staying at home all day. She knew that Han Bin was busy with work, so she did not disturb him.
Han Bin was also aware of this, and he was very grateful for Wang Ting's consideration. He was prepared to take her out for a walk during his day off.
On Saturday, the two of them woke up naturally. Han Bin was too lazy to cook, so he drove her to KFC.
Wang Ting blinked her big eyes. "After dinner, where are you going to take me to play?"
Han Bin looked out the window. It was only nine o 'clock in the morning, and the sun was shining brightly. It was already mid-August, the hottest time of the year. "The weather is too hot, and it's cooler in the mall. Let's go shopping, and I'll buy you some clothes."
Wang Ting took a sip of coffee. "I'm unemployed now. Where would I have the money to buy clothes?"
Han Bin took a tissue to wipe the corners of Wang Ting's mouth. "I have money. My bonus this month is quite a lot. It's enough for you to spend."
Wang Ting smiled. She had quite a bit of savings, but she was still very happy to hear what Han Bin said.
If a man was willing to spend money on you, it might not mean that he loved you. It could also mean that he had other motives.
However, if a man was not willing to spend money on you, it definitely meant that he did not love you.
"Oh yeah, these two days, there have been people calling me, wanting to rent my shop. Do you think I should rent it out?"
Nowadays, physical businesses were not easy to do. Many shops were closed, and they could not rent it out even if they wanted to. However, this situation also depended on the location, and the golden shops in the city center would never have to worry about rent.
Wang Ting's shop was not big, but it was located in the bustling area of the city center. It was not difficult to rent it out.
Han Bin asked, "You don't plan to open your own shop?"
Wang Ting was a little hesitant. "I'm not sure."
"I don't know much about this kind of thing. You should discuss it with Uncle and Auntie."
Wang Ting nodded slightly.
After breakfast, Han Bin started shopping with Wang Ting.
Wang Ting was very picky, or perhaps she just enjoyed the process of shopping. She went to many shops but did not buy much. She only bought a dress and a pair of high heels, and a T-shirt and sports shoes for Han Bin.
After they were tired from shopping, the two found a restaurant for lunch. This was a restaurant that specialized in Cantonese cuisine. Each dish was the size of a palm, and because the amount of food was small, the price was not too expensive. The advantage was that the two of them could eat a few more dishes.
Wang Ting picked up a xiaolongbao for Han Bin. "After lunch, what are we going to do?"
"What do you want to do?"
Wang Ting pouted. "I was the one who asked first."
"Let's go watch a movie. I heard that Detective Tang 3 is already in theaters."
"Have you bought the tickets?"
"There shouldn't be many people watching the movie. It's not too late to buy it now."
Wang Ting touched her smooth chin. "I was thinking of buying something for your parents later."
Han Bin smiled. "You've decided to go to my house?"
"I didn't want to see your parents so early, but I was afraid that it would be awkward if I met them again, so I might as well go visit them first."
Han Bin gave her a thumbs up. "Smart girl. Wise choice."
Wang Ting curled her lips. "Don't act like you've gotten the better end of the deal."
Han Bin said seriously, "Tingting, do you want me to visit your parents first?"
"Wait a bit. My parents don't want me to get married so early."
Women were more reserved in this aspect, so Han Bin did not force it.
Wang Ting grabbed Han Bin's hand. "Oh yeah, help me think about what I should bring when I visit your parents."
It was not good to let Wang Ting go empty-handed. Han Bin didn't know what to buy for Wang Ting. This was the first time he had done something like this.
Han Bin wiped his hands and took out his phone from his pocket. "We've been shopping for the whole morning. You must be tired. Let's not shop in the afternoon. Let's go watch a movie and relax. "
"When should I buy it? I can't go to your house empty-handed."
"That's easy. I'll go shopping with you next time I rest. Not only will I buy gifts for my parents, but I'll also buy gifts for Uncle and Auntie. It doesn't matter if I visit them or not, it'll be a token of my appreciation. "
Wang Ting thought about it. "That's fine. But I'll say this first. I'll have to use my own money to buy things for your parents. "
Han Bin said nonchalantly, "Isn't my money your money?"
"That's different."
Han Bin pinched her cheek. "Okay, I'll listen to you. Whatever you say."
