Chapter 311: Chapter 222 The Familiar Routine

Before leaving on a long trip, one must call the team leader for permission and to report.

Han Yu was not familiar with the instructor who took the position after Chinese New Year and could only look for the Big Commander, Zhao Hongxing.

The dunship at Yanjiang Police Station still flies the banner of Binjiang City Police Department Water Police Brigade Linghai Team to this day, which means the cases at Yanjiang Police Station are also Water Police Station cases.

Zhao Hongxing was also brought over from Linghai to Binjiang by Political Commissioner Wang, and after understanding the situation, he agreed pleasantly.

It’s rare to have the opportunity to handle a case in Si Gang, especially by car, so of course, he would ask his father-in-law if he needed to bring anything back home.

After calling to ask, there were quite a few items to take with him.

His father-in-law asked him and his senior to come back for dinner in the evening and to load the things to take back home into the jeep.

After putting down the phone, Han Yu picked up the walkie-talkie, ready to call his senior, when the police walkie-talkie that was charging transmitted Yang Yong’s call.

"Captain Yu, this ship is indeed suspicious!"

"How is it suspicious?"

"They’re picking up people, they picked up one at No.7 Pier and two under Yingchuan Port Bridge. The three individuals who boarded, one came to the riverside by motorcycle, the other two came in a small sedan, they look quite wealthy, they must be gambling on board!"

The development zone has both large and small businesses and family workshops, as well as many engineering contractors.

As the saying goes, "those who have food and warmth have other wants," and some people, once they have money, start to stray from the straight path. Yingchuan Port Police Station has busted several gambling rings this year, with the largest one time seizure being over a hundred thousand in gambling funds.

These wealthy gamblers initially gambled in private restaurant rooms or hotel rooms, and after being caught several times, they hid in residential houses to gamble, gradually progressing to hiding in factories to gamble, even getting security guards to keep lookout.

Just five days ago, the Security Team of the Development Zone Branch caught one.

However, because they were unfamiliar with the terrain and those involved in the gambling had security and company employees as cover, four or five of them managed to escape from the back.

The Security Team’s police and auxiliary police discovered and quickly pursued them, to throw off the pursuers, they even jumped into the Bin Qi River. They were indeed good swimmers, by the time the Security Team’s police reached the riverbank, the gamblers had already swum to the other side, and thus they escaped through the water.

Han Yu didn’t expect those gamblers would think of gathering on a ship to gamble and couldn’t help but laugh: "Where have they headed now?"

"They’re heading north and it doesn’t look like they plan to stop the boat."

"Gambling while sailing is indeed safer. Plus, they can generate electricity while sailing, which can power the large air conditioner."

"Captain Yu, what should we do now?"

"Keep an eye on them, I’ll have Ma Jintao and Dong Bangjun hurry back."

"Got it."

Luo Wenjiang comes from a well-off family, and just starting his job his family bought him a 125cc motorcycle.

A boat, no matter how fast, can’t beat a motorcycle; Luo Wenjiang laughed as he rode, "Brother Yang, if we could seize three to five thousand in gambling funds, the department leaders wouldn’t criticize us anymore, and Director Jia wouldn’t get scolded."

Yang Yong put away the walkie-talkie and looked out at the target boat that was chugging northward on the water, reminding him, "Slow down, don’t follow too closely, the guy steering the boat is quite alert, he’s looking around."

"Understood."

Luo Wenjiang eased off the throttle, then added, "Brother Yang, I didn’t get a chance to speak up back at the station."

Yang Yong instinctively asked, "Speak up about what?"

"Isn’t Captain Yu going with Director Zhang to Si Gang to catch someone tomorrow? I want to tag along and learn."

"Bored with being Water Police?"

"It’s not boring to be Water Police, but it surely isn’t as interesting as being Criminal Police."

Nowadays, new police officers all like to be Criminal Police and handle big cases, but even if one becomes a Criminal Police officer, what big cases are there to solve...

Yang Yong has been working for many years and had frequent dealings with Criminal Police, well aware that actual cases handled by the basic level Criminal Investigation teams are similar to those of the Police Station.

"Wanna break a big case, catch a fugitive, huh? There’s an unsolved murder case at Binjiang Port; if you’re interested, you can check it out."

"Brother Yang, stop joking; I know which case you’re talking about, I don’t have the capability to investigate it."

"Well, there you go."

Yang Yong patted his shoulder with a hint of envy, "You’re a chosen candidate, a key individual groomed by the City Bureau, even the Provincial Department. Your future path will be considered by superiors, just do your duty honestly. There’s no need to think too much or intentionally show off."

Even though Luo Wenjiang is a chosen candidate, the last thing he likes is people bringing it up, he muttered, "I never thought about intentionally showing off."

This kid is talking tough.

Yang Yong bluntly said, "Why did the City Bureau assign you to our branch, because being Water Police is the hardest. Why did the branch then place you in our squad and insisted on having you in the group with Captain Yu and me, because our group is the most likely to achieve results."

Over the past three months, besides rescue, it’s been joining Port Supervision to inspect vessels.

Luo Wenjiang couldn’t help asking, "What achievements?"

"Water rescue is an achievement. Just starting your job, you’ve saved a crew member who accidentally fell into the water and a boy who almost drowned swimming; isn’t that enough?"

"The crew member was saved by Captain Yu, the kid was saved by Xiao Yu, I didn’t actually do much."

"You participated all the same, and participation is enough."

Meanwhile, Ma Jintao and others arrived at the squad’s small dock on Binjiang Water Police 004.

There’s no air conditioner on the boat, the cabin is hot like a sauna.

With the exception of Li Xiaohai who had to steer the ship from inside the cabin, everyone else stood on the rear deck, drenched in sweat, completely soaked.

Han Yu jumped onto the speedboat, signaling Li Xiaohai to keep heading forward while he reported the situation.
