Jiangnan City, Railway Workers Theater
An older building located in the railway construction family area is closely connected to several railway construction companies. .
Going forward twenty years, this place used to be a must-visit place for leisure and entertainment for the families of tens of thousands of railway construction workers.
At that time, every night, many young men and women would come here to watch the troupe’s performances, and the venue was almost full.
However, twenty years later, outside the theater gate, the same men and women were still there, but they had transformed and became the main square dance players.
Gu Chen parked the car at a roadside parking space, put on the handbrake, took out the information and started comparing.
He has now gained 50 case-handling experience, and has begun to become more comfortable with various operations.
“This is it.” Gu Chen put away the information and turned to look at Officer Wang: “At ten o’clock in the morning, there will be a stage performance. The suspect’s name is Zhang Yi, female, 27 years old, a cosmetics store proprietress and part-time stage actress.”
Before coming, Gu Chen already had a general understanding of the briefing. After confirming the suspect’s basic information, he was ready to take her back for investigation.
“She’s still pretty, but it’s a pity that she’s a fraud.”
Officer Wang felt a little regretful that he treated good-looking criminals like this.
That’s how arresting people is. With sufficient evidence, it’s relatively easy to bring the suspect back for investigation.
But the premise is that the criminals don’t know.
Maybe Xiao Yang felt that this time it was too simple. It would be a waste of time to put down the case at hand and deal with such trivial matters, so he simply gave it to the third group.
All in all, it is to help the three groups improve their performance. After all, they represent the entire Furong Police Station.
Of course, Zhao Guozhi also got along with the first and second groups. Within the system, this was a matter of concentrating efforts to do big things.
Although the honor belongs to the department group, it represents the entire Furong Police Station. The small group must serve the large group.
Due to the large number of people in the theater, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble and onlookers, Gu Chen and Officer Wang put on a set of casual clothes and prepared to quietly take Zhang Yi away for investigation at the right time.
Humanization has always been the tradition of Furong Police Station.
There are still eight minutes left for the stage show to start. The audience basically enters the venue and takes their seats with their tickets.
“Sorry, please show your ticket.” A ticket inspector stopped Gu Chen and Officer Wang.
Officer Wang looked around, and after making sure there was no one else around, he took out his police ID card.
“Police…police?” The old man was stunned.
“Shh!” Officer Wang put his index finger to his mouth, making a silent gesture.
“Excuse me, do you need help?” The old man lowered his voice, feeling that something was about to happen.
Officer Wang collected his police badge and asked in a low voice: “Can you give me a copy of your performance list?”
“Of course… of course.”
The old man was very cooperative and took out two tickets: “The program list is printed on the tickets. You can take these two tickets for free.”
“Thank you.” Gu Chen took one of the tickets, took a photo of the program list with his mobile phone, and returned the ticket: “We are here to perform a mission, not to watch the show.”
“I understand, I understand.” The uncle smiled and asked, “Do you need any more help?”
Gu Chen shook his head: “Keeping us confidential is the greatest support for our work. Thank you.”
The uncle is also a sensible person. He asks what should be asked but doesn’t ask what shouldn’t be asked. Isn’t that how things are done in TV dramas?
The more you know, the quicker you die. Most troublesome people don’t survive more than three episodes.
The lights in the theater were bright, some light music was playing, and the audience was roaring, waiting for the performance to start.
Gu Chen and Officer Wang came to the far left side of the front row. This is the place closest to the stage and can clearly see the stage situation.
Backstage, the actors were putting on makeup, and everyone was racing against time.
“Senior Brother Wang, judging from the program list, the role played by Zhang Yi should be the third one to appear.”
Gu Chen took the picture with his cell phone and put it in front of Officer Wang, and said: “We can wait for her to perform before arresting her. This will not affect the live performance arrangement and can also arrest Zhang Yi. What do you think?”
Gu Chen made clear arrangements for the arrest based on the situation at the scene. Officer Wang nodded with satisfaction: “Okay, I’ll do as you say.”
He didn’t expect that Gu Chen would consider it so carefully. This was originally knowledge he used to show off, but Gu Chen told him about it first.
In an arrest operation like this, if it were an inexperienced police officer, they would just go and arrest people without caring about other social impacts, but at least Gu Chen had given enough consideration.
“You kid, do you have some experience?”
He would not tell Officer Wang that his experiences came from something called a “junior treasure box”.
The increase in experience in handling cases 50 times has allowed him to consider the problem more comprehensively, which is equivalent to the level of 100 days of work.
At this time, the lights suddenly dimmed, the live music stopped, and the audience’s eyes began to focus on the stage.
The first program was a group dance. Dancers in various costumes danced various artistic dances that were difficult to understand.
Officer Wang dozed off a little while watching.
The second program was a solo performance. An aunt who looked like a veteran cadre used her natural voice to scare Officer Wang awake from his nap.
The third program is “Dream Angel” where Zhang Yi will appear.
Listening to the name, I feel a bit lofty.
Moreover, judging from the promotional pictures, it should be a dance performed suspended in the air with a steel wire belt.
“Pay attention and observe.” Officer Wang suddenly opened his eyes and reminded Gu Chen.
Since performers all need to wear makeup, sometimes the real appearance in the photos will be different from the appearance on stage.
Therefore, it is necessary to observe the suspect carefully.
Gu Chen now has entry-level observation skills. He is confident that he can spot Zhang Yi’s appearance at the first sight.
Ten seconds!
Twenty seconds! Thirty seconds! Forty seconds into the music, there was still no movement on the stage, and many in the audience were looking at each other.
It feels like… is there something wrong?
Officer Wang gritted his teeth: “Could it be that…this Zhang Yi wants to run away?”
But Xiao Yang said that she didn’t know that the police wanted to arrest her, so now Officer Wang is also confused.
“Wait a little longer.” Gu Chen was obviously more calm than Officer Wang.
After all, with the extra 50 case-handling experiences, he already has a certain ability to resist situations that may arise at any time on the scene.
“Boom——”
Just when everyone didn’t know what was going on, a figure suddenly fell from the sky and fell heavily on the center of the stage, making a loud “dong” sound.
The scene suddenly became chaotic.
There were screams and cries.
A leader sitting in the front row suddenly screamed: “Someone fell to death!”
“Music stop, music stop!”
“Quickly turn off the music and go over to see what’s going on.”
Several on-site staff immediately ran towards the center of the stage.
Gu Chen and Officer Wang took a look and quickly followed him.
“What’s going on?”
“The actor fell from above.”
“Oh my God, it’s horrible.”
“Baby, don’t cry. Mom is here, don’t look.”
Many babies were frightened and cried loudly in their mother’s arms.
Theater performances were interrupted.
“It’s Zhang Yi, yes, it’s him.” After careful identification, Gu Chen determined that the woman who fell from a height was the suspect he was looking for, Zhang Yi.
There are a little few recommendation votes today, please vote for me.
