Chapter 119 The Pendulum
Chapter 119 The Pendulum
At this moment, Walker's greasy face was rarely solemn, and the severe situation in front of him made him unable to speak for a long time.
By his side, many subordinates who have been waiting to get off work are silently waiting to be dealt with.
In the silence, Detective No. [-] felt the vibration of the phone in his pocket again. He was so anxious that he had to break the situation: "I heard..."
Walker reacted quickly and interrupted immediately: "Shh..."
Detective No. [-] was suffocated for a moment, God knows how many times he has cheated on his girlfriend, if he is late for this date again, he dare not think about it.
"Bureau..." Agent No. [-], who spoke again, was directly covered by his colleague.
Immediately afterwards, the figure of Old Dick, the security guard, appeared in front of everyone without making a sound. If the people in front hadn't gradually stepped aside, the people standing in the inner circle would not even have noticed it at all.
As soon as he saw the key in Old Dick's hand, Walker pointed his habitual hand on his stomach behind him, and everyone dispersed to both sides in silence to make way for Old Dick.
Old Dick looked around at the crowd before stepping forward, and his eyes fell on Carter and Lester. Recently, the bunch of keys in his hand that he hadn't used for several years had been borrowed twice recently.
When the back door of the police station was opened by Old Dick, everyone lined up in a long queue to leave in an orderly manner. They didn't say a word during the whole process, for fear of making a little noise and being heard by the people sitting quietly at the entrance of the front hall.
Detective No. [-] breathed a sigh of relief until he stepped out of the back door of the police station, and complained to his colleagues: "I almost died of panic, and if I do it again, I will probably be kicked out by my girlfriend."
The colleague glanced at him, and then took a symbolic look in the direction of the front hall: "It's a good thing, fortunately, today is the morning shift, and the evening shift has to deal with those sitting quietly at the door."
Speaking of this makes people shudder. Agent No. [-] didn't dare to think about it. After shaking for a while, he took out his mobile phone and prepared to coax his girlfriend.
Compared with coaxing a girlfriend, the difficulty factor of the evening shift is obviously higher.
As the bureau chief, Walker was very responsible and stayed until the end at this time, standing aside and watching the bureau's subordinates on the morning shift leave through the back door one by one.
People from the intelligence team were also standing at the back. Everyone lowered their heads for fear of being watched, so they walked out. Naturally, Kirk was included in these people. His mother just urged him to go home for dinner.
In the end, seeing the boss and Ji who were walking in front of him leave smoothly, and seeing Lester and Carter who should have been walking behind him also pass him and leave smoothly, Kirk's face collapsed, and he looked back miserably. Mr. Chief who grabbed his back collar.
Just like that, I watched everyone get off work smoothly, and none of them even stopped to look back at themselves.
As soon as he left, Ji Chuan murmured to Ai Fan, "I knew Kirk would not be able to leave until I turned around."
"Inevitable." Ai Fan shrugged, also without looking back.
In fact, Kirk also guessed that he had to say sorry to his parents who were waiting for him to cook at home, and he would definitely not be able to escape this overtime.
It's just that when it's time to be detained, I still feel desolate, especially when everyone passes me straight as if they didn't see me.
Walker turned around to carry the person into the elevator, and said as he walked, "Go back and study the direction of public opinion on the Internet. How to resolve the sit-in crisis is up to you."
Kirk had a headache for a while: "Shouldn't Lisa be the one to do this kind of thing? She was the one who wrote the draft for the navy last time..."
"What about her? Lisa has to take care of the company after get off work every day. It's hard enough. You still want to trouble her. Do you have any love from your colleagues?" Walker retorted with righteous words.
Kirk: "..."
If Kirk remembers correctly, it seems that there is a clear rule that it is not allowed to hold two jobs at the same time, especially this is still an iron job, but Walker can still speak so high-soundingly after joining the establishment...
Kirk couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, sighing that it's nice to have money.
In Kirk's view, the blockade of the police station entrance by the crowd this time is no different from the absurdity of the blockade of the police station in order to chase Church last time. It can be regarded as a small probability event of one in ten thousand.
It's impossible for such a tepid starlet to make trouble at the door of their Lance Headquarters, and this case is indeed out of their hands.
But even though the colleagues on the night shift were chatting downstairs, the group of people still refused to leave. I heard that they were all die-hard fans of the little star.
"These fans are really hardcore, and they can't be provoked. This is not within our scope of acceptance. The second case has not been turned over. What's the use of blocking our door." Make complaints.
Walker also sighed. He has been in this business for so many years, and he can be regarded as a person who has seen big storms and seen the world, but it is the first time that the door was blocked because a starlet committed suicide because of depression like today.
"I just asked there. The case has been closed according to the nature of suicide by jumping off a building. The above means that we will handle it ourselves." Walker pulled two sparse hairs on his head, also worried.
After hearing the words, Kirk couldn't help but look sideways: "According to what you mean...then it shouldn't be me who stays..."
"What I mean is that they will definitely be posted on the Internet if they make such a fuss. I have already ordered the Internet police team to prepare, and you will take them there in a while..."
But before Walker finished speaking, he was interrupted by Kirk: "Director...the Internet police team is no longer needed..."
Walker propped up his chair and leaned over to look at the LCD screen that Kirk pointed to—well, it’s already aroused, with rich pictures and texts—a group of people sat on the steps with their backs to the gate of the police station, holding up various A cheer board about "truth".
"Hurry up and call to cancel the trending search..." Walker was so tired that he had nothing to say. He felt that he had been addicted to being a celebrity recently, and he was too busy to be on the trending search on the news.
It was Kirk who called to withdraw those hot searches last time. He was familiar with the process, and he communicated with them within a few minutes. When asked about the real details of the case, he was even able to use bureaucratic tricks to fool him. , Kirk is no longer a rookie at the beginning, he can also be regarded as a veteran.
At this time, it is absolutely impossible to show up and respond positively, because once you have the first sentence at the beginning, you must respond to your requests when you go forward, otherwise people will say that you are guilty of guilt and don't say anything.
Kirk took people to make a general statistical analysis of the data on the Internet, and found that the trend of public opinion is becoming more and more biased. Not many people are still focusing on the case of the starlet suicide itself, and more emphasis is on theirs. "Do nothing".
But in fact, many people who eat melons come to watch the show.
Recently, the exposure rate of Lance Headquarters has almost caught up with the past few years. It used to be that some cases were cracked and broadcasted in the news. Now it is good, and if there is any disturbance, it will cause chaos on the Internet.
Kirk came up with two reasons. One is that it is no longer the age of information networks, and the speed of information dissemination is extremely fast. The second is that everyone’s awareness of various aspects has risen. No one cared about who solved the case, let alone Lance Head Office or Branch Office.
Not knowing whether it was happiness or worry, Kirk frowned and pinched his eyes.
If you want him to say that such things as rhythm have to be done by professionals, how useful he can be, he is completely Lisa's back, because Walker dare not buckle her after get off work.
There are many people who pay attention to this matter, and Church is one of them.
In the past two days, even if he didn't touch his mobile phone, he could get a general understanding of the whole thing. It felt like the whole classroom was talking about their police uncles in Lance.
Of course, it was mainly because he heard that the door was blocked again that he took a snack. After all, he was blocked last time because of himself.
"Could it be that you just sit quietly?" Li Xu next to him also dropped his jaw in shock when he saw the trending search.
Church didn't quite understand the brain circuits of these people: "In all fairness, it has nothing to do with Ifan and the others. What's the use of them sitting here."
"There are quite a few people saying that the star's fans are not very smart." Li Xu muttered while biting his chopsticks, "But I feel that most people still prefer the theory of 'the police are useless'."
The proprietress leisurely put a chopstick of tofu into the bowl, and ignored the two rice bugs who love to swipe their phones while eating.
After a while, Li Xu said again: "The trending search has been withdrawn."
"Well, it will be fine after a while." Church felt that he was a typical example.
Now no one is pointing at him on the road and asking questions. He hasn't worn a mask or a peaked cap this week.
But the proprietress, who was about to leave the table after dinner, said: "It's too bad (go), Church, you should go to debut (debut)."
"What?" Church usually couldn't understand the dialect of the proprietress.
Li Xu's daily interpreter: "Maybe it means that Ai Fan and the others can't make it through? The proprietress asked you to pack up and prepare for your debut."
"Why???" Church didn't understand why this was related to the issue of his own debut, "Is there anything I need to do?"
The proprietress gave him a cold look: "Just to remind you, don't count on me for living expenses after you finish the college entrance examination."
Church: "..."
