Criminal Psychology

Chapter 222 Shameless

The emergency building of the hospital was surrounded by swarms of media reporters.

It may be exaggerated to say so, but now is the era of new media, many people can do live broadcasts with their mobile phones, and it is difficult for you to distinguish who has more influence between these people and traditional reporters.Reporters and photographers holding microphones with the logo were at the front, while some people holding recording pens were at the back, and at the outermost were onlookers who didn't quite know what was going on.

Secretary Chen was surrounded by groups, like a flat boat on the cusp of a storm. Before Lin Chen approached, he heard someone holding a recording pen and asking.

"Have the director and the city leaders come? When will the press conference be held?"

Secretary Chen said: "The director is visiting the wounded and presiding over the investigation of the case. Please stay calm."

The reporter asked again: "Condolences to the wounded, what is the situation of the casualties?"

Secretary Chen froze for a moment, with a look of bewilderment on his face, and the reporter quickly recorded this moment with a flash.

Lin Chen took two quick steps, raised his cuffs, patted Secretary Chen on the shoulder, cut in front of him, and replied on his behalf: "In the violent incident at the barbecue stall in the Gulou community, three people were injured in total, and two of them were seriously injured. Seriously, a police officer died in the line of duty.”

The moment he opened his mouth, flashing lights swarmed up, Lin Chen narrowed his eyes, and scanned the faces of everyone up and down the steps, most of them were reporters with excited or serious expressions, and a few were curious, but no one showed complacency or extreme Indifferent expression...

So the murderer was obviously not among the crowd watching the interview.

……

Probably when Lin Chen walked out of the emergency building and stood in front of the media, Huang Ze just drove the car into the parking lot outside the hospital.

The night is the best background, and the snow-white corridor of the hospital is more like a reflector, so that he can clearly see Lin Chen's thinner face than the day he left, but under the flashing lights, Lin Chen does not look pale Thin, with a kind of alternative, proud beauty.

Huang Ze knew very well that the way he looked at him now was cheap in ordinary terms, but honestly speaking, he really couldn't let go of these things, this feeling of tearing and entanglement was driving him crazy.Huang Ze looked indifferently at the flickering lights in the distance, but his hands were tightly clutching the steering wheel.

……

Lin Chen didn't see Inspector Huang and his car close at hand, because the reporters in front of him were like wolves and tigers, extremely fierce.

"Are the police hiding from the public the true cause of the injury?"

"No." Lin Chen replied bluntly, but there was no further text.

The reporter who asked him the question froze for a while, obviously not expecting that he was not going to explain.

"But some witnesses said that the barbecue stall owner and customers were zombies, biting each other crazily!" The reporter then asked loudly, and directly grasped the most explosive question.

"Indeed, as you said, there were diners fighting and biting each other. You already know the truth of what happened at the scene. Why do you think the police are hiding something?"

"I mean zombies. Is there any zombies in Hongjing City!" the reporter excitedly asked.

"I don't know where you got the similar association." Lin Chen didn't have any accidents, and remained calm: "But I think the families of the wounded must not want to hear your speculation. Except for the police officers who died in the line of duty, the life detection equipment It shows that all the wounded have normal vital signs, so it does not meet the usual definition of zombie in science fiction stories."

Lin Chen emphasized science fiction stories.

At this moment, the reporter who had been standing on the other side said, "I'm sorry, police officer, please allow me to interrupt you. I heard your answer just now, and thought you had been talking about him, but in fact you didn't answer. The issues that our media and the public are most concerned about.” Compared with the previous one, this reporter’s tone is more peaceful, but it is also more difficult to deal with.

"Please speak." Lin Chen nodded to the other party with a gentle attitude.

……

Huang Ze couldn't hear what Lin Chen said, but he just looked at Lin Chen's calm demeanor and his face that was so calm that a mountain collapsed in front of him without changing his expression.In fact, he couldn't figure out whether his emotion towards Lin Chen was love or hate. To be precise, he even thought that he hated Lin Chen so much that he always remembered this person. , it is easy for you to have an illusion.Huang Ze forced himself to look away from Lin Chen's face. In order to find something for himself to do, he began to search for Xing Conglian's annoying figure in the crowd, but he also found nothing.

At this moment, his passenger door was suddenly pulled open, Huang Ze suddenly looked to the side, and a figure with the smell of smoke sat in the car.

Huang Ze realized who it was, he clenched his fists tightly, and a vein stood out on his forehead.

"Inspector Huang."

The person who got into the car without authorization leaned back on the seat, looked at him with dark green and indifferent eyes, but said with a smile.

Huang Ze said: "It's not good for Captain Xing to come in without invitation, right?"

"It's better than Inspector Huang going crazy in front of reporters later. Of course, the main reason is that he doesn't want to see you either."

Xing Conglian said that he was of course referring to Lin Chen, especially when Xing Conglian bit the sound of "he" he was more intimate than other words. Only from this detail, Huang Ze realized that Lin Chen and Xing Conglian were together .

"Get out of the car." Huang Ze immediately realized that he had lost his composure, his expression was slightly cold, and he said to Xing Conglian without hesitation.

"Let's talk, Inspector Huang." Xing Conglian said, and took out his cigarette to point.

"Don't make me say it a second time."

"What about your business when I get off the car? Shareholders are not easy to take care of recently, right?" Xing Conglian pressed the lighter, and the flames flickered.

Thinking of the white hair of his father and brother who came in today, Huang Ze suddenly raised his eyes and glared at Xing Conglian: "Xing Conglian, don't you think your methods are too low?" "For example, in your business?" Cong Lian smiled, "I think it's okay, shopping malls are like battlefields."

Xing Cong even spoke with a "you can't blame me for your family's lack of money" face, Huang Ze really wanted to punch this man's proud face.

"So what exactly do you want to do here?"

Xing Conglian didn't speak, but took out a transparent headset from his ear, put it on the dashboard of the car, then glanced at the headset, and said to him, "Listen."

Although Huang Ze hesitated, he still put the headset in his ear.

……

At the entrance of the emergency building, on the steps, Lin Chen pressed the headset and heard intermittent voices, but the people in front of him prevented him from thinking carefully about what Xing Conglian and Huang Ze were talking about.

The previous reporter asked in a very sharp tone: "May I ask why the diners fought and bit each other crazily, and even the police officers gave their precious lives for it?"

Lin Chen nodded, and said in the most common language of the media: "It's only been an hour since the incident, and the police are still investigating the specific reason."

"Does it mean that the police don't know anything?" The reporter showed a sly expression of a prey stepping into a trap, and continued: "But as far as I know, before the incident, many police officers from the Hongjing Police Force were near the scene , At the time of the incident, some police officers even fired warning shots. Therefore, the police can quickly control the situation and prevent the situation from deteriorating, is that right?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Indeed."

"So why did the police suddenly appear near the Gulou community? Can I think that the police have obtained some information in advance, but did not inform the local residents?"

Lin Chen didn't seem too excited by such an embarrassing question, he still answered calmly: "The police came across this unexpected situation in the Gulou community during a routine arrest operation." Lin Chen moved forward He took a step forward and said frankly, "If we knew in advance that such a vicious incident would happen in the Gulou community, we would have deployed more police forces, instead of just watching our colleagues die in the line of duty."

"From what you mean, it seems to be saying that the police have no ability to guarantee the safety of the people, so where is our taxpayer's money spent?" The reporter pushed his black-rimmed glasses, as if he could always capture An excellent hunter with prey's weakness will step into the trap he has set up a long time ago if he is not careful.

Lin Chen paused for a moment, then asked seriously: "Where do you work?"

The reporter wearing black-rimmed glasses was stunned, then he spoke in disbelief, and said sarcastically, "Are you planning to settle accounts with me afterwards?"

Lin Chen replied lightly: "No, I just want to know about your monthly basic salary and bonus."

"I don't need to answer this question."

"I understand." Lin Chen glanced at the other party from top to bottom, and said, "Looking at your age and the logo of the microphone in your hand, I can tell that you work with Hongjing TV. You are about 35 years old this year. You are questioning I was full of momentum, which shows that you should be aggressive in your work, so according to the general salary standard of Hongjing reporters plus the amount of your personal ability bonus, I estimate that your annual salary is around 22, and the tax you pay is 8000 yuan. [-] yuan per year."

"This is my personal privacy!" The reporter turned up the volume and was very nervous. This reaction showed that Lin Chen's guessed amount was indeed correct.

"It's nothing, I just want to tell you that the policeman who died tonight is named Anguo, and according to national standards, his pension standard is 20 times the national per capita disposable income of urban residents in the previous year plus 40 months' salary. Last year, the national per capita disposable income was 31195 yuan, 20 times that is about 62 yuan. Anguo’s basic monthly salary was 4200 yuan, and the 40-month salary was less than 18 yuan. That is to say, he died in the line of duty, and his The compensation that family members can get at one time is about 80 yuan, which is the final value of a criminal policeman’s life, which is about four years’ wages of yours.” Lin Chen paused, “Converting it again, his life is probably worth Your total tax payment for 4 years of employment."

"What do you mean!"

"I'm just telling you the truth, where did the taxes you pay go?" Lin Chen said calmly, looking at the tall buildings in the distance and the darker night sky above them, "But in fact, I think there is no way around these things. Measured in money."

No reporter at the scene said anything, and the night became silent again.

"Do you have any other questions?" Lin Chen finally asked.

……

Huang Ze took out the earplugs, wrapped them with his palms, looked at Xing Conglian, and raised his eyebrows.

"It's over?" Xing Conglian asked.

Huang Ze handed the things over: "I've finished listening, Captain Xing can tell me clearly, what exactly do you want to express?"

Xing Conglian shrugged, did not plug the headset back immediately, but said in a very relaxed tone: "I didn't want to express anything, I just wanted to show you how good my boyfriend is."

Huang Ze stared at Xing Conglian, thinking that his hearing was hallucinating, how could there be such a brazen person in the world.

Xing Conglian didn't care at all, he opened the car door and was about to step down, at this moment, as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned around, patted Huang Ze on the shoulder, and said, "He's really good , so I can understand how upset you are, really."

Huang Ze really wanted to shake off Xing Conglian's hand, but that kind of action was the words of Xing Conglian.The hand on his shoulder was quickly pulled away, and the moment the car door was about to be slammed shut, Huang Ze said, "Xing Conglian, I thought the same as you four years ago, really."
