Forty minutes later.
A young man arrived at Golden Beach, wearing a tight T-shirt, a gold necklace around his neck, a toothpick in his mouth, and a pair of sunglasses.
Han Bin glanced at him and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Chen San, what are you dressed up for?"
"Is Brother Bin handsome?" Chen San made a pose.
"Rustic."
"Stop it."
"It's really rustic." Han Bin walked over and tugged at his gold chain. "Still wearing this thing in this day and age."
"Brother Bin, be gentle. This is gold plated. If the skin is rubbed off, you can't wear it anymore."
"Take off your sunglasses. Don't you think it's dark at night?" Han Bin was a little speechless.
Chen San's real name was Chen Defu. He was caught for stealing a battery. This kid didn't learn his lesson and was caught more than once. He was the kind of person who didn't commit major crimes but kept committing minor ones.
When Han Bin was a police officer in the police station, he participated in educational activities for released prisoners. He helped them solve the difficulties and problems they encountered in life, work, and study, and promoted the smooth integration of released prisoners into society.
Chen San was the target of Han Bin's help. After the two had been in contact for a long time, Han Bin realized why Chen San didn't repent. The direct reason was that he lacked money. The root reason was that he felt that life was too dull and always wanted to find some excitement. Otherwise, he would feel uncomfortable all over.
To prevent Chen San from looking for excitement and committing crimes, Han Bin developed him as an informant. He could find excitement without committing crimes, and he could also earn some money. It could be said to be killing three birds with one stone.
How could Chen San not be happy?
Han Bin threw him a bottle of beer, said goodbye to Jiang Anyang, and walked in the direction of the beach.
Chen San bit open the beer bottle and took a sip. "Brother Bin, I heard that a woman drowned here. She was pretty and didn't even wear clothes. Is that true?"
"Where did you hear that from?" Han Bin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I heard it when I was playing mahjong in the afternoon."
Chen San gulped down another mouthful of beer. It was almost empty. "This beer tastes pretty good. It's just that it's a bit lacking. I can't drink it."
"I'll treat you to a drink some other day," Han Bin said.
"Hehe." Chen San laughed. "Brother Bin, what mission do you have for me today?"
"It's the female corpse case you mentioned."
"F * ck, you're the one handling this case."
"Yes."
"Is the female corpse wearing any clothes?" Chen San asked curiously.
Han Bin: "…"
"Just kidding. I just didn't expect it to be so coincidental."
"It's getting late, let's get down to business." Han Bin and Lin Sanjiu had already walked to the seaside. There was no one here, so they didn't have to worry about someone eavesdropping.
…
The next morning.
Yu Hua Branch's canteen.
At a long table by the window, Han Bin, Zeng Ping, Li Hui, and Tian Li sat together for breakfast. It wasn't planned by the four of them, but it was time for work and breakfast.
There were many people eating at the cafeteria every day, so the breakfast was very rich. Han Bin ordered a mutton soup and a stone cake.
The mutton soup was very large, with rice noodles at the bottom and a few slices of mutton on top. The stone cake had eggs with peppers, tofu skin, and ham. These two breakfast items were enough to fill one's stomach.
They had to work on a case today, so they had to eat more.
"Captain Zeng, why are your eyes so red?" Tian Li noticed Zeng Ping's abnormality.
"I stayed up late." Ceng Ping yawned as he spoke.
"Didn't you say you didn't have a mission last night?" Tian Li asked.
"You didn't have a mission last night, but Captain Zheng and I worked until midnight. When we got home after eating something, it was already past one o 'clock."
"What happened?" Han Bin was also a little confused.
"He Shirui's family came to identify the body. Four people came at once. They were He Shirui's parents, brother, and sister. They were crying miserably. Captain Zheng and I tried to persuade them. I think half of the people in the branch office heard it," Zeng Ping sighed.
"At that time, I think there were not many people in the branch office," Li Hui said.
"Don't gloat over there. Next time someone's family comes to identify the body, it'll be you."
"I agree." Tian Li raised her hands.
"I agree too," Han Bin said with a smile.
"Don't be like that, Captain Zeng. I can't do it. Please don't lower yourself to my level," Li Hui begged for mercy.
Zeng Ping ignored him and continued, "He Shirui's family dragged me and Captain Zheng to talk for a long time. They were sure that He Shirui would never commit suicide and begged us to catch the murderer."
"I'm soft-hearted. I can't bear to see such a scene," Li Hui said.
Tian Li was angry when she heard that. She was in charge of identifying the body. "What do you mean? So I'm the toughest one in Team Two. "
"Sister Tian, that's not what I meant. I'm saying that you're a heroine. I dare not compare myself to you," Li Hui said with a smile.
"Captain Zeng, did you take a statement last night?" Han Bin asked.
Zeng Ping shook his head. "I couldn't take a statement at that scene. He Shirui's parents were so emotional that they knelt down in front of us. They were very regretful and sad. I didn't feel good about it either."
"What did her parents regret?"
"They regretted that He Shirui didn't marry Mao Yiran because of the betrothal gifts. If He Shirui didn't come to Qin Island, she wouldn't have died." Zeng Ping sighed.
"I remember clearly that He Shirui's father grabbed my hand and said that he killed his daughter. He Shirui's mother sat on the ground and slapped herself."
The atmosphere at the table suddenly became silent.
After dinner, Zeng Ping stood up and said, "Everyone, please work hard today. Find enough evidence to file a case and give He Shirui's parents an explanation."
After watching Zeng Ping leave, Li Hui spread out his hands. "He Shirui didn't have any obvious fatal injuries, and there were no witnesses or surveillance cameras. It's not easy to find evidence to file a case."
"If you don't have direct evidence, you can find indirect evidence," said Han Bin.
"What indirect evidence?"
Han Bin thought for a moment and said, "Wait."
"Wait for what?"
Han Bin stood up. "When you finish eating, help me clean up the dishes."
Li Hui: "…"
"Ring, ring …"
As soon as Han Bin walked out of the cafeteria, his phone rang.
Han Bin took out his phone and saw that it was Chen San. He pressed the answer button and said, "Hello."
"Brother Bin, where are you?"
"At the police station." Han Bin answered. Seeing that there was no one else around, he continued to ask, "Did those two do anything last night?"
"Nothing last night, but they're on the move now. Are you coming?"
"What move?"
"They left the hotel together."
"Follow them and see what they're up to."
"Brother Bin, I've been watching them all night. I'm so sleepy."
"Don't drop the ball at this critical moment. Follow them."
"What if they take a taxi?"
"You take a taxi too," said Han Bin.
Chen San smiled. "Can I reimburse the fare?"
Han Bin smiled. How could he not know what Chen San was thinking? "Not just the fare. As long as the evidence you provide is useful, I will report it to the higher-ups and apply for a bonus."
Chen San patted his chest. "Okay, just wait and see."
