Tiger Police

Chapter 2 Buying stolen goods
The round-faced girl had a tough attitude, she tugged on the sleeve of Ruqun: "If you pay first, what if you run away?"

The middle-aged man couldn't help laughing, he raised his hand and pointed at the lively night market around: "There are so many people, if you just call out, can I escape?"

This made sense, and even Hu Pingtao, who was sitting quietly watching, couldn't fault it.

"...Then... well..." The eagerness to get an Iphone overwhelmed everything. The round-faced girl frowned and thought for a moment, then finally slid open the phone screen and clicked "Scan" on the upper right corner.

The middle-aged man looked down at the screen of his mobile phone and confirmed that 500 yuan had arrived.

The girl urged in a low voice: "I've given you the money, give me the Iphone quickly."

"Okay, I'll give it right away. You're free and I'm quick, let's do business with integrity." The middle-aged man smiled on his rough and greasy face, and stretched out his left hand to the girl while holding the Iphone.

At the moment when the girl was about to catch him, a young man in a black T-shirt ran up behind the man. He hurriedly inserted himself between the middle-aged man and the girl with a round face, and said in a low voice, "Brother, the police are here." .”

Following his guidance, the two raised their heads and saw two patrolmen coming from the south side of the pedestrian street.

The middle-aged man sat up straight quickly, raised his left arm holding the Iphone slightly, and the phone in his palm slipped down the cuff of his clothes.This movement is quick and natural.He sat upright, without changing his face, casually picked up a skewer of barbecued meat from the plate in front of the round-faced girl, and ate it slowly.

"Don't worry, I'll give you the things when the police pass by." He stopped the girl who was about to open her mouth in a low voice: "You have to be honest, if you sell it to you, it will be yours. Please be safe."

The young man in the black T-shirt also nodded and whispered in a low voice: "If you are caught by the police, the things will not be confiscated, and the money will not be returned to you. Then you will lose even more."

The girl was frightened, she silently waited for the two patrolmen to pass by not far behind, without saying a word.

Hu Pingtao glanced out of the corner of his eye at the policeman who had already walked more than 20 meters, turned Luo Yu lightly with his elbow, and blinked his eyes to signal him not to speak.

The middle-aged man sitting next to him was obviously in a hurry to leave. He lowered his left arm with the same skillful movement, and the Iphone slipped into his palm again, held it directly in front of the girl, and said with a soft smile, "How about it, no Did you lie to me?"

The round-faced girl nodded excitedly.The Iphone bought at a super low price is no less than a precious treasure in her eyes at this moment, and there is a kind of surprise in her heart that she has found it again, and she even feels grateful for the greasy, thin middle-aged man.

Although he is a thief.

Although this Iphone is stolen.

"Money and goods are settled, I'm leaving." The middle-aged man smiled gently, stood up, waved at the girl gracefully, and wanted to leave.

Hu Pingtao winked at Luo Yu, then jumped up suddenly, grabbed the arm of the middle-aged man who was turning around with his left hand, twisted and pulled it up, and clenched his right hand into a fist, aiming at the man's exposed armpit and punching hard. A hard hit.

His father hoped that his son would become a dragon, and let him follow Sanda and military boxing in the military camp since he was a child.The armpit is the vital part where the lymph nodes and nerve endings are concentrated. One punch made the middle-aged man convulse all over. While screaming, his body curled up and collapsed on the ground, unable to stand up for a long time.

Luo Yu patted the round-faced girl who was in a daze on the shoulder hard: "You have been fooled, that phone is fake."

After finishing speaking, Luo Yu quickly stood up and ran towards the two patrolmen who had just walked not far away, ignoring the surprised eyes around him, and shouted loudly: "Robbery! Catch the thief! There are liars here!"

The content is not important, in short, you can shout as much as you can to attract the attention of others.The people nearby were attracted by the yelling, and the two patrolmen also turned around and ran towards this side after hearing the news.

The young man in a black T-shirt has been held down by Hu Pingtao.It's not that he doesn't want to resist, but Hu Pingtao's speed is too fast. He knocked down the middle-aged man with a punch, and then he raised his foot towards the young man's knee and bent backward. The man lost his balance and jumped forward involuntarily. fall.When the patrolman ran over, Hu Pingtao had already squeezed his hands on his back and pressed it with his knees.

"What's going on, why are you fighting?" The leading policeman was over 50 years old, and his eyes quickly swept over the middle-aged man who was lying on the ground and clutching his armpits, and then glanced at the young man in a black T-shirt who was being held down. It fell on Hu Pingtao.

"They steal things and sell fake mobile phones." Hu Pingtao briefly described what happened.

Standing next to him was a young auxiliary policeman. He ran over quickly to grab the middle-aged man, but saw the policeman leading the team reach out and hold him down. He frowned and ordered, "Xiao Dou, why don't you Long memory. How many times have I said that in this situation, call for backup first, and then turn on the body camera."

The current patrol team is composed of civilian police and auxiliary police.

The auxiliary policeman called "Xiao Dou" quickly turned on the walkie-talkie, called, and took off the body-worn camera on his belt.This is the jurisdiction of the Eryuan Road Police Station in Gudu District. Although there are many people in the night market, the positioning is accurate. Another patrol team arrived quickly and took control of the situation.

Because of the theft and trading of stolen goods, including Hu Pingtao and Luo Yu, all those involved were taken back to the police station to make notes.

Until now, the round-faced girl discovered that the Iphone in her hand was a fake.She pressed the power button with all her strength, and there was no light flickering on the lifeless black screen, no familiar startup screen, and no music.

"Liar! Give me my money back!"

The woman in rage is young and terrifying.She cried and yelled and scratched at the middle-aged man's face. Hu Pingtao's punch was very solid. The middle-aged man has not slowed down until now. He was caught off guard, and the round-faced girl scratched several bloodstains on his cheeks.

Seeing this, the policeman who led the team shook his head, arranged for people to separate the round-faced girl from the middle-aged man, then sat down, opened the notebook, and questioned Hu Pingtao carefully.

The matter is not complicated, but there are a few questions that the policeman who led the team found very strange: "How do you know that the mobile phone he sold is a fake?"

"He wears too much." Hu Pingtao turned sideways and glanced at the middle-aged man who was taking notes diagonally across the street with his hands handcuffed: "Today's temperature is 29 degrees Celsius. Even wearing a shirt feels hot. He was wearing a jacket over it."

The policeman sitting opposite smiled and shook his head: "This is not a reason, some people want demeanor but not warmth."

"When he was at the barbecue stand, he kept using the collar of his clothes to cool him down." Hu Pingtao explained: "He zipped his jacket. It's easy to cool off, just unzip the zipper. But he talked to the girl He kept a fixed sitting posture all the time, and his movements were very stiff when he handed over the mobile phone. At that time, I suspected that there was something wrong with his clothes, and there should be something hidden in the sleeves.”

The policeman handling the case suddenly became interested. He put down the pen in his hand, walked up to the middle-aged man who was taking notes, stretched out his hand and unzipped his jacket, and took out a piece about [-] centimeters long from the sleeve of his left arm, which was extremely tough. Good plastic tape.There is a ring card slot at the top, which can be fixed on the elbow.As long as this simple device is used, the two mobile phones that slide in and out along the wrist can be replaced at will by relying on the cover of the sleeve of the clothes.

Hu Pingtao also came over, and raised his finger to the young man in a black T-shirt with his head drooping: "They are very courageous, they divide the work and cooperate, and when they see their prey taking the bait, they come to remind the police nearby. Because they said at the beginning The source of this mobile phone is not clean, and the shoppers are also afraid of getting into trouble, so they trade in a panic, and they don’t have time to check the authenticity of the mobile phone, so it’s hard not to be deceived.”

Hearing this, the policeman who was recording couldn't help but raised his head and smiled "haha": "Old Zhang, I didn't expect you and Xiao Dou to go out on patrol, but you became an accomplice."

Lao Zhang couldn't laugh or cry, so he called Shang Hu Pingtao back to his desk, quickly finished sorting out the notes, raised his head, and showed a very emotional smile.

"Young people, it is good to have a sense of justice and social responsibility, but you must pay attention to the methods and methods. Next time you encounter a similar situation, call the police first."

Lao Zhang kindly reminded: "Beating someone is against the law. Besides, even if you can fight again, it is impossible for you to win every time in a one-on-two match."

The following words were very meaningful, and Hu Pingtao didn't know how to answer them for a while.Seeing his tongue-tied expression, Lao Zhang felt relieved immediately, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Young man, you are a good person. You have to be like this, stand up at critical times, and fight with the society." Thank you for your help, otherwise we will have to spend a lot of time and effort on this case."

It was almost twelve o'clock when we left the police station.

The night market in the distance is far less noisy than before, and there are far fewer diners gathering in front of the barbecue stalls.

Turning around, looking at the flashing red and blue police lights in front of the police station, Hu Pingtao took a long breath: "I've decided."

Luo Yu asked with a smile: "What happened tonight enlightened you, and you decided to go home?"

Hu Pingtao shook his head and said seriously: "I want to be a civil servant and become a policeman."

The best way to prove yourself is to earn your own living.

……

A few days later, the Gudu District Police Department of the provincial capital.

The national examination is a cumbersome and complicated procedure, and it will take some time for the province to start registering for the civil service examination.Hu Pingtao is the kind of person who will not look back when he sets his goal, but even people with firm beliefs still have to eat.He borrowed 3000 yuan from Luo Yu, bought an old mobile phone, and temporarily lived in a nearby youth hostel. The most urgent thing is to find a job.

Luo Yu's house has no empty beds and cannot accommodate anyone.In fact, the cheapest and most economical way is to rent a house, but after looking around, the landlord requires at least one payment of rent every quarter, plus a deposit of one month's rent in addition, the little money in Hu Pingtao's hand There is not much left, and even eating is a problem.

When the former Eryuan Road Police Station was taking notes, he saw several auxiliary policemen busy inside and out, which was a very good choice for Hu Pingtao.
