Riverside police

Four days have passed in the blink of an eye, and today is Saturday again.

With the arrival of Wang Dalong, Han Yu has become much more relaxed these days. After all, whether it's sailing or repairing a boat, they are the professionals.

There is not much civil construction in the institute, but it was "completed" yesterday.

A reception room was built at the gate. Lao Qian didn't like climbing stairs, so he moved in before the newly painted walls were even done.

Next to the reception room are two dormitories, a holding cell and toilets.

The detention room is made of cement, and a ring of steel bars is installed at the base of the wall so that suspects can be handcuffed to the steel bars.

A row of fences welded with steel bars was installed in the house, and an iron gate also welded with steel bars was installed on the fence.

When I walked in, it felt like an iron cage.

An old desk and a chair are placed outside the fence. If a suspect is detained inside, someone should be arranged to watch outside the fence to prevent the suspect from colluding in confession or injuring himself.

The canteen is built on the north side, facing south, facing the reception room and detention room.

The only difference from the building to the south is that there is an alley leading to the small dock by the river between the office building and an iron gate installed at the entrance.

The west end of the canteen is the kitchen. We asked a mason to build a firewood-burning earthen stove, a large water tank, a brick-made tiled worktop, and a large cupboard.

There are two doors in the operation room, one leads to the dining hall with two large round tables, and the other leads to the river.

The firewood used for cooking and boiling water was piled by the river, and it was inconvenient not to leave a door to hold the straw.

The easternmost room, that is, the one next to the courtyard wall, is the water room, where people living downstairs can wash and wash their clothes.

The new wall was built higher than before, and many glass fragments were buried at the top of the wall.

It's not easy for outsiders to get in. It's just as difficult for people in the yard to escape once the gate is closed as it is through the iron gate at the alley by the river.

In short, the former Yanjiang police station was just a lonely two-story building, but now it has become a heavily guarded three-story courtyard.

It is worth mentioning that the institute not only recruited Wang Dalong, but also recruited two joint defense team members from the only fishermen village on the riverside and from migrant fishermen who were not even villagers.

One is Zhu Baogen, forty-eight years old this year.

This man was very famous along the river, and Han Yu had heard of him more than once.

There are three kinds of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is to have no descendants.

The patriarchal mentality left over thousands of years has become a jingle in Linghai: the old will live forever, the young will decline, and middle-aged people are afraid of ending their lives.

He gave birth to three daughters, but failed to recruit a son-in-law. All three daughters were married, and their relationship with him was cut off, becoming a "dead child" with no children or grandchildren.

But the reason why he is so famous is not because he is an "outcast child", but because he is not afraid of death or bad luck.

Dozens of corpses have been fished out of the river over the years, so that whenever a corpse is found floating on or in the river, he will be asked to help fish it out.

One is Liang Xiaoyu, who is also sixteen this year and was born and raised on a small fishing boat.

My ancestral home seems to be over the Yanhai side, and I have been here for decades.

His grandfather didn't even remember where his hometown was, so Lao Zhang could only apply for a floating household registration for his family, turning them from black households into Linghai people.

The water is the road and the boat is the home.

Their family of four was crowded into a small fishing boat, wandering around and making a living by fishing.

His grandfather was in poor health, and his mother had some mental problems. He had never even gone to school. The clothes he wore were in tatters and he didn't know where he picked them up. He looked like a beggar.

In Li Zhi's words, his family is a broken ship with a broken net, and three generations share the same cabin. The fish and shrimps are caught in exchange for bran vegetables, and the time is passed by leaking water up and down.

Xu Sanye visited his family on the boat and saw that the conditions in his family were very difficult. Considering that although he was uneducated, he was good at water, could punt, and was honest and obedient, so he was asked to be a joint defense team member. He could make some money and be able to Take some of the burden off his father.

As a child on the boat, Han Yu felt that he was many times happier than him.

She originally planned to let him live in the same dormitory with her, but she didn't know if Lao Qian had told him something, or if he had known Zhu Baogen before, so he and Zhu Baogen sent the bedroll into the newly built dormitory as soon as he arrived.

Xu Sanye made an introduction and asked Lao Qian to take Zhu Baogen and Liang Xiaoyu to familiarize themselves with the environment. Then he called the instructor, Lao Zhang and Han Yu to have a meeting.

"Zhang Suo helped us buy the ferry tickets, the day after tomorrow morning. The letter of introduction and the procedures for inviting colleagues from the East China Sea to cooperate have also been completed. Lao Zhang and I will take Wu Youfu to set off early the day after tomorrow."

"Suo Xu, what if there are more than two suspects."

"What are you afraid of if you have colleagues assisting you? If you find a few, arrest a few. After arresting them, call home. If there are many suspects, ask the bureau to arrange a few more police officers to help escort them."

Xu Sanye lit a cigarette and continued: "Lao Li, after Lao Zhang and I leave, all the work in the office depends on you. Zhang Lan may have to come over late today because she has something to do. When Zhang Lan comes, I will tell her again. She assists you in your work.”

Li Weiguo muttered: "With Xiao Han watching over the ship repairs and shipbuilding, there is actually nothing going on in the place."

Xu Sanye flicked the ashes from his cigarette and said with a smile, "I have other plans for salted fish."

"Xu Suo, what are the arrangements?" Han Yu asked subconsciously.

"Minister Lei called me yesterday and said that the militia training has been advanced. You are now a public security officer. You can't just repair and sail ships. You must also have excellent military qualities."

"Xu Suo, do you plan to let me participate in militia training?"

"Not just you, Liang Xiaoyu will also participate. I have already agreed with Minister Lei that we will have high standards and strict requirements for you during training."

"As for the shipyard, you should quickly explain to Captain Wang. Tell Zhang Lan what spare parts need to be purchased when Zhang Lan comes back."

Public security officers participate in militia training...

Li Weiguo felt it was inappropriate. Before Han Yu could speak, he held his chin and said, "Suo Xu, the bureau is recruiting contract police officers. We should wait a few days and let Xiao Han participate in the bureau's training."

"The training in the bureau was organized by Wang Xiazi. What does he know and what can he teach? Even the director of political work can't even do ideological work well. So many people have been recruited and trained so many times over the years, but the result is I ran away for a few days.”

"The main reason is that the salary is too low."

"Salary is one thing, but the main reason is that the ideological work has not been done well. Besides, Wang Xiazi organized a contract police training. Xianyu, a formal policeman, can participate, but Liang Xiaoyu, a joint defense team member, cannot participate."

Xu Sanye looked down upon Director Wang as always, with a look of disdain.

Lao Zhang had long been accustomed to this. He raised his head and asked, "Xu Suo, do you think the bureau can arrange two contract policemen for us this time?"

"Don't even think about it."

"But Director Wang promised Li Zhi last time."

"Blind Wang can't make the decision. What he says doesn't count. Besides, the contract police officers are too mobile. Even if we arrange for two of them to come over, we may not be able to keep them. If they work for a few days and then run away, it's better not to let them go."

The county has a population of nearly one million and only about 90 police officers, which is a serious shortage of police force.

When it comes to lacking people, every team is lacking people.

To this day, there are still no police stations in several townships and only one special police commissioner.

And for the bureau, although Yanjiang Police Station has invested so much, compared with the Criminal Investigation Team, Traffic Police Team and other police stations, the work of Yanjiang Police Station is really not that important.

Thinking of this, Lao Zhang didn't ask any more questions.

Li Weiguo also knew the status of the Yanjiang Police Station in the bureau, and he also did not mention the contract police.

Xu Sanye didn't want to work for someone who might run away after a few days, nor did he want to go to the bureau leader because of this matter. He raised his head and looked at Han Yu.

"Xianyu, you are busy repairing and building ships these days. You may not know much about recruiting joint defense team members. Considering the next work, I have some things to tell you."

"Xu Suo, what's going on?"

"Why does the No. 4 Police Station recruit one joint defense team member from each village? It's because they need people who understand the situation in each village. Only in this way can they be able to have both ears and eyes."

"We are responsible for water security. There are many water security management points and long lines, and the tasks are arduous. Boat people and fishermen are also wandering, so if we want to be alert and clear, we must recruit joint defense team members on the riverside and on the water."

"And law enforcement on the water is different from law enforcement on the shore. Not only do we need to be familiar with the situation on the water, but the joint defense team members who assist us in law enforcement must have good water skills. Even if they cannot sail a boat, they must be able to punt."

Han Yu quickly said: "I understand."

Xu Sanye nodded with satisfaction and continued: "As for why I didn't recruit anyone else, I hired Liang Xiaoyu. The main reason is because you are young, only sixteen."

Han Yu was confused: "What does this have to do with me?"

"Of course it does matter. I am about to be forty-three, and the instructor and Lao Zhang are older. If you include Lao Qian and Captain Wang, the average age in our institute is over fifty-four.

We don’t know what to tell you other than work life and family. I guess you also feel lonely. Such an environment is not conducive to your growth. "

Xu Sanye smiled and continued: "Although Liang Xiaoyu has no education, he is of the same age as you, and he is also a child on the ship. You must have something in common."

It turns out that he recruited Liang Xiaoyu here because he wanted to find him a playmate...

Han Yu felt both funny and touched, and said hurriedly: "Thank you Xu Suo."

"Don't thank me, this is what Lao Li thought of."

"Thank you, instructor."

"What's there to thank you for? I didn't recruit Liang Xiaoyu just to play with you. It's also for work."

Li Weiguo was worried about hurting his self-esteem, so he emphasized: "Liang Xiaoyu may have better water skills than you. This summer, when he saw a person swimming by the river with cramps in his legs, he jumped into the river without hesitation and rescued the person."

"Be brave enough to do justice!"

"He is a good boy, but he has never gone to school. Although the education requirements for the joint defense team members are not high, they cannot be illiterate. We will hand him over to you, and you will be responsible for educating him about literacy."

Xu Sanye thought the instructor's suggestion was a good one and nodded slightly: "We should teach him not only to repair and sail the boat, but also to teach him to read and write."

This is a salted fish in front of me, and that is a small fish outside...

Lao Zhang suppressed his laughter and added: "We should also pay more attention to him in life and let him feel the warmth of our big family."

Li Weiguo was afraid that Han Yu would be in trouble, so he said meaningfully: "Xiao Han, water policing is different from the police on the shore. It is very professional. Others can't do the work you can do.

In a few years, when Lao Zhang and I retire, if Police Station Xu is transferred again, Yanjiang Police Station will rely on you.

So we have to look far ahead. If we hire someone now, we have to keep one person, otherwise there will be no one available for you by then. "

Xu Sanye felt that what Li Weiguo said was very reasonable, so he pointed at him and said seriously:

"Xianyu, the instructor is not kidding you. You are both the successor of communism and the future director of our Yanjiang Police Station, so you must have a sense of ownership from now on!"
