Chapter 76 Xiao Yong


Chapter 76 Xiao Yong

It was already very late after the police station verified the fingerprints of teachers and students.

Du Yu was still busy at the police station, and Xu Yiqing went home to rest because he couldn't help.

This was one of the few times he spent the night at home in a while.

The sky outside had completely darkened. Xu Yiqing glanced at his watch. In one hour and twenty minutes, it would be a full day since Song Lang's death.

The summer night scenery outside the window seems to be exactly the same as that of winter, but it exudes a unique atmosphere. The streets and alleys are brightly lit, and the colors are intertwined and sparkling under the night.

Xu Yiqing seemed to be able to smell the smoke of fireworks, cumin and chili powder through the window.

The windows can be opened and only the cool breeze comes.

He knew that the Criminal Police Brigade was now intensively checking [Cleaner]'s half-fingerprint, and he was inevitably feeling a lot of anxiety, so much so that he didn't feel sleepy even though he hadn't had much rest recently.

There are many kinds of worries, including the fear that Du Yu will return without success. After all, most of the fingerprints in the fingerprint database are suspects with criminal records, and there is little possibility for the police to collect fingerprints from ordinary people.

In addition, he was afraid that Du Yu would really find the owner of the fingerprint - in that case, the worst possibility would be that the owner of the fingerprint was someone familiar to him.

Thinking of this, he opened the window wider, trying to blow in the cold air to relieve his anxiety, but it didn't work very well.

So Xu Yiqing subconsciously went to the kitchen to find something to eat. He had a habit of eating something when he was anxious, which would make him feel better.

"Huh?"

Opening the refrigerator door, Xu Yiqing, who didn't have much hope, actually saw some fruits in the fresh-keeping layer... some of them were not very fresh, and some looked like they had been put in in the past few days.

Why is there fruit in the refrigerator when I am clearly not at home during this period?

After thinking about it, Xu Yiqing felt relieved.

It's Zhou Shi.

The two of them knew each other very well, so Xu Yiqing immediately understood that it was Zhou Shi who knew about her habit of wanting to eat when she encountered anxious things, so she filled the refrigerator.

Zhou Shi had the key to his home, which was given to him by Xu Yiqing. Apart from the ambiguous relationship between the two, he still subconsciously believed that this was Zhou Shi's house. Even if she gave it to him, he should have the key to the house.

After eating the banana, Xu Yiqing felt that her anxiety was much relieved. She lamented that Zhou Shi even remembered her own fruit preferences, drank a cup of hot milk and went to bed to fall asleep.

Early the next morning, Xu Yiqing was woken up by a phone call.

But it was a bit beyond his expectation that the caller was not Du Yu but Lin Sheng.

"Brother Xu, there is a corpse."

——

Xu Yiqing left the community and planned to call a ride-hailing service. She was muttering in her heart that there was a new death so quickly.

Just as he was thinking about things, a taxi suddenly stopped in front of Xu Yiqing.

"Are you leaving?" The car window rolled down, and a very young face looked at Xu Yiqing, very enthusiastically: "Boss, are you waiting for the bus?"

Xu Yiqing glanced at her phone. There were still three kilometers to go before the online car-hailing order was received.

The body waited for no one. Since there was a faster option in front of him, Xu Yiqing canceled the online car-hailing service, opened the passenger door and got in.

There is another reason why he chose this taxi. Xu Yiqing noticed that this taxi was different from other taxis on the road in Jiangcheng——

The words "Model Rental" are affixed to the car body.

"Where is the boss going?"

"Forensic Medicine Center."

Xu Yiqing fastened his seat belt, "This is the first time I've seen a taxi stick this thing... Didn't you stick it yourself?" The young driver smiled slightly and proudly pointed to the many certificates behind the steering wheel: "It's the company's How could I have faked it myself?”

Xu Yiqing took a closer look at the certificates. What was written on them was "Certificate of bravery for righteousness."

"Comrade Xiao Yong: On December 7, XX, you bravely rescued a child who fell into the water in the Jiangcheng Reservoir. According to the "Jiangcheng City Regulations on Rewards and Protection of Brave Personnel, you are recognized as a brave person, and this book is specially awarded to commend you. ”

In addition to the first one, Xu Yiqing looked through other certificates. Almost all of them were medals for bravery, including those for saving people, assisting the police in arresting people, and even reporting on the stronghold of human traffickers.

The driver caught a glimpse of Xu Yiqing flipping through his certificate out of the corner of his eye. When he saw the informant and trafficker, he could not suppress his pride and rolled up his sleeves while waiting at the red light.

"This scar was left when I arrested the traffickers. They wanted to climb over the wall and escape. I grabbed the traffickers' legs to prevent them from leaving, and was stabbed."

"And here, these, this is the person who was hit by a motorcycle while chasing a thief, and this is the person who rescued someone who jumped from the building and was scratched by the steel bar..."

He kept talking to Xu Yiqing about his heroic deeds, his eyes filled with light.

Xu Yiqing thought the name sounded familiar, and remembered it after hearing him talk about his deeds.

"I often see reports about you on TV." Xu Yiqing said: "There are also some local public accounts."

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

There are clerks within the police who are responsible for publicity work. They are responsible for writing some articles on WeChat public accounts. Xu Yiqing was also pulled by Du Yu to forward and like them.

Among them, the name Xiao Yong appears very frequently. He is responsible for almost 80% of Jiangcheng's heroic acts.

In today's era when it is not your fault, why should you support it? There are not many caring people who still maintain their original intention.

And according to Xiao Yong, the things he did were quite dangerous and almost caused injuries all over his body.

Xu Yiqing had only seen Du Yu with more "scar medals" than the young driver in front of him.

"It's an honor for Jiangcheng to have someone like you." Xu Yiqing praised, but was also curious about Xiao Yong's age: "You are younger than the taxi drivers I have seen... How old are you this year?"

"Twenty-three."

"You drive a taxi when you are twenty-three? Have you never thought of doing anything else?"

"I didn't pass the police academy because I had scars on my body... I was burned by hot water when I was a child, and my grades were not good."

Speaking of this, the light in Xiao Yong's eyes dimmed a bit, but then it recovered: "So I started running taxis and wandered around Jiangcheng every day. Sometimes I arrived at the scene before the police!"


He was very proud to say this. It seems that it is his ideal to be able to do a job similar to that of a policeman, to eliminate violence and maintain urban security.

"What's wrong with your hand?" Xu Yiqing asked.

He noticed that Xiao Yong also wore black gloves on hot days.

"You said this." Xiao Yong took off his gloves, revealing a pair of somewhat miserable hands——

Both of his hands were covered with ugly scars. Xu Yiqing could tell at a glance that they were wounds caused by high-temperature burns. Such a large area could have been caused by hot water or fire, and might even be infected.

Judging from the surface of the wound, it was an old injury many years ago. Considering what Xiao Yong said just now, it is likely that it was an injury he suffered when he was a child.

"Isn't it scary?" Xiao Yong was very free and easy, smiled, and put on gloves again: "I'm afraid of scaring the passengers, so I just put on gloves."

Xu Yiqing's focus was very strange: "Then you don't have fingerprints either?"
