Riverside police

As night falls, the river is hazy.

Not long after Jianghan Passenger Ferry No. 60 left Qing'an, you could see Xiaogushan in the middle of the river. It went down the river and arrived at Jiangcheng via Wuhu. The "Panda Electronics" billboard on Pier 4 in Jiangcheng was particularly eye-catching.

When he was a child, Liang Xiaoyu loved sitting on the bow or stern of a small fishing boat. He never got tired of watching the ships coming and going.

In the summer when I was bathing in the river, whenever I saw the Baishen or Bailiu passenger ships passing by, I was not shy at all. I waved to the passengers on the passenger ships with my bare buttocks bare, and I dreamed of traveling on a passenger ship one day.

This wish finally came true!

Now I take passenger ships every day, from the river to the mountain city, from the river to the East China Sea, and on the dozens of Jiangshen, Jianghan, and Jiangyu passenger ships that sail on the Yangtze River's more than 2,000 kilometers of trunk line, I don't have to pay for it.

But now I don't care about watching the excitement, and I don't have time to appreciate the night views on both sides of the river. I focus on a fat man who calls on "Big Brother" from time to time.

The fat man was thirty-seven or eighteen years old, with oily hair and a pink face. He had a bulging briefcase beside him. From the moment he boarded the ship in Qing'an, he started talking loudly and everyone knew that he was the sales manager of a company in Qing'an. He obviously enjoyed the envious and adoring looks of others.

Now he is showing great attentiveness to a young girl, giving her business cards, treating her to fruits, and even wants to invite her to sing karaoke in a karaoke bar. Had it not been for the fact that there were so many tourists around, the young girl was a little embarrassed, otherwise she might have gone with him.

Don’t show off your money when you go out.

This fat man is just the opposite. As if he is afraid that others will not know that he is rich, he sometimes buys fruits, sometimes snacks, sometimes buys beer, and sometimes takes out his wallet to pay the bill.

The wallet was as bulging as the briefcase, and it was full of hundred-dollar bills, at least tens of thousands of dollars!

Liang Xiaoyu noticed that two groups of sneaky guys were eyeing him on the stretch from Qing'an to Jiangcheng. However, there were too many passengers in the cabin, so they never had the chance to take action.

It was late at night, and several passengers couldn't bear it and fell asleep. Other passengers also yawned nonstop. Some passengers even thought the fat man was annoying and cast a look of disdain.

Liang Xiaoyu pretended to be uncomfortable lying down, turned over slightly, and saw that the thin man who had just stepped on the spot had moved over for unknown reasons, and was sleeping in the corridor outside the cabin with newspapers and luggage as a pillow like an individual traveler.

Just thinking that the guy must be pretending to sleep and waiting for an opportunity, Yang San held a toothbrush in his hand and a towel on his shoulder. He was afraid of stepping on the individual guests lying in the corridor resting, so he squeezed in quietly. Come in.

"Brother Yu, you haven't had dinner. Are you hungry?"

"Kind of."

"The food on the ship is not delicious, so let's eat eight-treasure porridge."

Yang San put down the toothbrush and took out a can of eight-treasure porridge from his travel bag.

Liang Xiaoyu got up, took the eight-treasure porridge and put it aside. He yawned and said, "I'm going to pee and eat when I get back."

"Okay, I still have ham here, the king of kings."

"Leave it alone for now and watch the good stuff."

"I know, you go quickly. There are many people on this floor. I had to queue up just now to wash my face and brush my teeth. If you really can't hold it in any longer, you can go to the third floor."

"Really? I'll go take a look."

Liang Xiaoyu patted Yang San on the shoulder, squeezed out of the cabin and walked toward the toilet, observing calmly.

There are fewer and fewer passengers taking the Baishen passenger ship to Bailong Port, but there are still many passengers taking Jiangshen and Jianghan. There are people in the corridors and on the deck. This may be related to the many cities stopped along the way.

At the stairs leading to the third deck, there was another woman in her early thirties who looked suspicious.

It's so late, who isn't sleepy?

Passengers who had not bought a fourth-class ticket were trying to find a place to rest, but she was in good spirits. She sat at the top of the stairs and looked around, and from time to time she looked towards the fat man's cabin.

At this time, a girl with short hair climbed up the stairs from the front carrying a small bag.

Liang Xiaoyu went to the toilet, and thinking of what his girlfriend had told her more than once before, he went in and turned on the faucet to wash his hands. Then he yawned, stretched, and climbed up the stairs to the third deck.

The short-haired girl just now was watching the night view at the stern of the boat. Liang Xiaoyu walked over and held on to the railing, turning his back to the girl and asked: "Where's Uncle Liu?"

"Stay in front with my cousin."

"Are you familiar with your cousin?"

"It doesn't look familiar. They probably don't recognize him."

"Has your cousin found someone you like?"

The girl shook her hair and whispered: "I found two of them and are looking for an opportunity."

There are four members in the police academy squad. The squad leader is the instructor Liu of the cadet squad, Liang Xiaoyu is the deputy captain of the squad, and the team members are Yang San and the girl named Zhou Meimei behind him.

She and Yang San were in the same class, and they both studied public security.

Not only her academic performance is better than Yang San, but she is also better than Yang San in other aspects. She is the best girl in the Shipping Police School.

However, in Liang Xiaoyu's opinion, no matter how outstanding she is, she is still a student. The main reason why she was transferred to the squad was because if there was no female police officer, it would be inconvenient to search the body or go to the toilet if she encountered a female criminal.

Liang Xiaoyu subconsciously looked back and asked calmly: "Uncle Liu, do you want my help?"

"No need for now, he asked you to keep an eye on your cousin."

"We need your help here."

"do what?"

"There is a woman at the bottom of the stairs. She may be my cousin's friend. Please help me keep an eye on her when she has time."

"OK."

After exchanging the situation, Liang Xiaoyu was about to get off the boat. Zhou Meimei couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yu, Uncle Liu said you want to get off the boat at Binjiang?"

"What's wrong?"

"Uncle Liu said that we came out together, and we should be together no matter where we go. I plan to go ashore with you when we get to Binjiang, and let Yang San go home for a visit. We will get on the boat together after you finish your work."

"Whether we can go ashore depends on our cousins. If they don't take action, we can only go to the East China Sea with them."

Zhou Meimei had never been to Binjiang and was very curious about Binjiang. She couldn't help but smile and said, "Uncle Liu said they would definitely take action."

Liang Xiaoyu asked curiously: "How did Uncle Liu know?"

"My cousin bought a ticket to Jiangcheng. He didn't get ashore in Jiangcheng. He must get ashore when he got to Binjiang because the ticket inspection at Donghai Terminal is strict."

"They can replace it with a short-distance ticket from Binjiang to Donghai."

"It's possible. I really hope they do it sooner."

"Stop talking, I'll go down first."

The itinerary of the Crackdown Squad was decided by the squad itself. Every day they reported their destination to the headquarters without notifying the passenger ferry police team or the Changhang Branch along the Yangtze River.

Because he could make his own itinerary, Liang Xiaoyu had agreed with the instructor half a month ago that he would return to Binjiang on May Day in order to attend the wedding of Salted Fish Dried Fish and Sister Ning Ning.

But the plan always failed to keep up with the changes. Liang Xiaoyu was not sure whether the passenger ship would be able to land in Binjiang.

After all, there are two groups of thieves on the passenger ship. They have been watching for such a long time. They must be brought to justice in one fell swoop. They cannot give up halfway just because they have to rush to drink the wedding wine with dried salted fish.

Back in the fourth class cabin, I ate a can of rice pudding and lay down to rest.

It is said to be rest, but in fact you cannot really sleep. You must watch the six directions and listen to all directions.

As a result, he kept watching until three in the morning, when the announcement came over the radio that the passenger ship was about to arrive at Yangzhou Port. After snoring for several hours, the fat man got up, picked up his luggage and briefcase, and prepared to disembark.

Liang Xiaoyu gently kicked Yang San, who was sleeping on the bed next door, and got up to pack his luggage.

Yang San reacted and hurriedly packed his things.

The fat man was not completely awake and walked out of the cabin in a daze. The corridor was already crowded with people. It seemed that there were quite a few passengers who were going to disembark in Yangzhou.

"What's the rush? Don't rush."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

"Keep an eye on it, there are so many people!"

"I didn't wake up, sorry."

"Forget it, it's not easy even when you're away from home."

The thin man refused to get off the boat and struggled to squeeze back from the fat man with his luggage.

Just as the two of them were exchanging a few words about each other, Liang Xiaoyu looked through the gap between the passenger's shoulders in front of him and saw clearly that the thin man had cut the fat man's jacket pocket with a razor blade, and quickly took away the fat man's wallet. .

And the woman who was squatting at the top of the stairs in the first half of the night squeezed over at some point. While saying sorry, she got in behind the fat man and kept moving her luggage, deliberately pushing the fat man forward.

Liang Xiaoyu looked back behind him to confirm that Yang San was staring at the thin man who had succeeded, and followed the fourth-class and individual passengers who were about to disembark according to the plan he had made before.

"No need to rush, no need to rush. The ferry hasn't docked yet. Check your luggage. If you have children, take care of them and watch your steps."

"Comrade, please move to the side and don't block the road. There are so many passengers who want to disembark."

The police and flight attendants kept reminding them, but the passenger ship was about to arrive at the port just like the train was about to enter the station. Everyone wanted to get off the ship and go ashore early, so the queue was still crowded.

Liang Xiaoyu was wondering if the woman in front of him would actually get off the boat. The woman asked nervously: "Brother, you said it's so late. Is there a bus from Yangzhou Pier to Yangzhou City?"

A lesbian asked a question. Even though this lesbian was neither very young nor very beautiful, the fat man was still very interested. He immediately turned around and said: "It's not too late but too early. There must be no bus to the city from the pier." car."

"What should we do?"

"There is a hotel near the pier. You can find a hotel to sleep for a while, and then take the bus to the city after dawn."

"It will be dawn in a few hours. What hotel should we stay in?"

"Then take a taxi. There must be taxis at the pier."

“How much does a taxi cost?”

"If it doesn't work, you can come with me. The customer will send a car to pick me up, and I will take you to the city."

…

He only knows how to please women, and he doesn’t even know that his wallet has been stolen.

Liang Xiaoyu sneered. It was almost certain that this woman was diverting the fat man's attention. She didn't want the fat man to find out that his wallet had been stolen and buy time for the thin man to move the stolen goods.

If it was in the past, just grasp the current situation.

Now is different from before. We must not only catch the current situation, but also fight against gangs!

If the thin man were caught now, everyone would get the spoils, but the thin man would probably take over everything, and the woman in front of him would escape the law.

Liang Xiaoyu did not dare to act rashly and could only continue to stare.

The passenger ship shook violently, and the noise of the main engine was louder than before. It was obviously adjusting its course in preparation for berthing.

At this time, Yang San's classmate Zhou Meimei appeared on the stairs, looking down at the passengers who were queuing to get off the ship, and made a gesture calmly.

Liang Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly. Zhou Meimei immediately turned around and went upstairs with a look of regret on her haggard face.

"We have arrived at Yangzhou Port. Passengers arriving in Yangzhou have disembarked. Please check your feet and pay attention to safety!"

"You guys wait a minute and let the comrades here go first."
