Volume 1: Taking root at the grassroots level, a rookie’s first try Chapter 40 Don’t Let Youth Become Hell
Of course, simple, occasional fights between children cannot cause such great harm, so visits are necessary.
Zhou Liuyi and Li Hua transmitted the video footage from the law enforcement recorder back to the station, which confirmed the identities of the children through facial recognition and surveillance from other directions.
Soon, all the information was sent over.
Zhou Liuyi obviously had more ideas. He asked Officer Zhang Guilan not to alarm the school first, but to go to the school with Li Hua after school at noon to check.
The two changed into plain clothes in the car. Li Hua first called the police dog training base:
"Brother, I can't go over today for all our major cases. Please save the best search and rescue dogs and riot control dogs for me!"
The voice over there was even more heroic than Li Hua's:
"Fuck you, do you know how valuable the best search and rescue dogs and riot dogs are? What major cases can your police station handle?"
Li Hua said proudly:
"What do you mean there are no major cases in the police station? Do you know what police station we are? Longhua Street Police Station!"
…
After hanging up the phone, Li Hua still couldn't understand:
"Why are we going to school now?"
Zhou Liuyi had already changed into short-sleeved shirt and jeans. He also put on a blue jacket, looking like a delivery man. Zhou Liuyi said meaningfully:
"Because bullies will corner their victims in sparsely populated corners of the school after class and retaliate against them, becoming even more aggressive."
Li Hua glared:
"How do you know so clearly?"
Li Hua actually didn't feel that much about school violence. Although he couldn't get into a good high school, his father paid some school construction fees and forced him into a better local school. After all, the tuition was expensive, so at least the school's management was pretty good.
Zhou Liuyi smiled and said nothing.
Why does he know it so clearly?
Because he was young and had no father. His mother made a living by pushing a small stall and his sister occasionally picked up waste. In a school with a mixed bag of students and poor management, he could easily become the target of bullying by other children.
He has experience.
The police car was parked behind, and two people went around to the front door of the school. Students filed out, and some delivery men were outside the fence, waiting for students to pick up their food.
There were not many security guards in the school, and it was time to get off work and have lunch, so they walked towards the cafeteria.
Zhou Liuyi and Li Hua were two people going against the flow. They went to the teaching building first. In order to prevent things from being lost, the door of the teaching building was locked at noon, so there was definitely no one there.
Then the two of them went to the toilet, where there were groups of students, arm in arm.
The two of them only caught a few people smoking secretly in the toilet. They were very young and looked at Zhou Liuyi and Li Hua in shock. There were so many cigarette butts in the wastebasket, but they lied with their eyes open:
"I only took one puff! Seriously!"
Saturday one forehead support.
Damn, every time we catch a drug addict, he always says the same thing, but when you look at his resume, he has been smoking for years.
Li Hua blurted out:
"Anyway, I don't believe it!"
Zhou Liuyi took out his cell phone, pulled up the photos of the three children who beat people, and said seriously:
"Do you know him?"
Several people exchanged glances, seemingly hesitating. Zhou Liuyi suddenly came closer, with a somewhat fierce expression, and said:
"explain!"
Li Hua was shocked. Zhou Liuyi was even more ferocious than his master Xu Hai when he was angry.
But these younger students were obviously shocked:
"They were behind the playground. I saw in the group chat that they said that kid actually dared to call the police. He must be taught a lesson and told not to leave after school."
Zhou Liuyi grabbed the boy by the collar and dragged him out. He was even more violent than Peng Zhiyuan:
"Where is the exact location?"
Zhou Liuyi and Li Hua just walked around the school's iron fence and passed by the playground, but didn't see anyone.
The student dared not hide it any longer:
"It's right behind the audience seats. There's no one there. They broke into the fight and arranged it. This time Lin Xingxing actually dared to call the police. He must be in big trouble..."
There is indeed a blind spot for surveillance there.
Zhou Liu left the student behind and said to Li Hua:
"Walk!"
The two of them quickly ran to the playground.
These students in school uniforms who looked quite young were still asking:
"Hey, do I still have to write a self-criticism for smoking? Can I go to the playground to pick up trash this afternoon? I really don't want to write a self-criticism. It's more difficult than writing an essay!"
…
Under normal circumstances, this would definitely become a topic of conversation, but now neither of them has time to relax and play with jokes. Who knows if Lin Xingxing, who was beaten, is now in the back of the audience, being beaten so hard that stars are appearing in his eyes, and no one has noticed it yet.
The two men ran across the entire playground and came to the back of the auditorium. From afar, they saw a crowd of people. The skinny Lin Xingxing was pressed to the ground by two men. His face was covered with a tissue. Another tall, big and fat boy was pouring water on his face.
This is actually a kind of ancient torture that is often shown in movies and TV dramas!
It was extremely painful to lose my breath, but there were no scars on my body.
It is hard to imagine that these children, who are no older than 18 years old, could come up with such a torturous method.
They were watching, and seeing Lin Xingxing struggling and almost suffocating, they were still laughing:
"You dare to call the police, Lin Xingxing, are you tired of living?"
"It's our internal matter, what do you mean by calling the police? If it wasn't for you disobeying us, would we have to do this?"
"I'll teach you a lesson this time!"
…
Saturday ran over quickly:
"Police! Stop it!"
Although he was not wearing a police uniform, he had a police officer's ID in his hand. Three of the people who had bullied Lin Xingxing before quickly said to the leader:
"It's really the police, we just saw them coming in a police car!"
After all, they were a group of young students. They ran away immediately after hearing the words. Some of them crawled under a piece of iron sheet torn off from under the back door, some were agile and climbed over the wall directly, and some just ran away from Zhou Liuyi and Li Hua in a swagger.
Obviously, they were sure that they were minors and that there were only two policemen who could not do anything to them.
Lin Xingxing was released. She tore off the tissue on her face and knelt on the ground, gasping for breath.
Li Hua ran over and pulled him up from the ground, but Lin Xingxing broke free from Li Hua's hand just like before. He spoke this time, but his words were accusatory:
"have a finger in the pie!"
Li Hua said angrily:
"What do you mean by meddling in other people's business? If we hadn't arrived in time, you would have been beaten to death!"
Lin Xingxing gnashed his teeth and said:
"What's so great about the police? In this school, do you have the final say? You come for a few minutes and then leave. Do you have the right to care about my life or death? If you hadn't meddled in my business, I would have only been beaten today. Now I get beaten every day!"
This bit of meddling made Zhou Liu feel heartbroken.
Li Hua was so angry:
"What do you mean we have the final say? We are from the police station, and our job is to maintain law and order! Didn't we just come again?"
In fact, Li Hua had not originally thought of coming to the school again, but insisted on coming on Saturday. It is hard to imagine what would have happened here today if they had come later, or if they had not come at all.
Lin Xingxing picked up the dirty schoolbag that was stepped on from the ground, stuffed the torn textbooks into it like collecting rags and garbage, then turned and left.
Zhou Liuyi grabbed the back of Lin Xingxing's collar and stopped him from leaving. The little guy struggled a few times like a crab, but he was too thin and weak, and his hands didn't have much strength. He could only bluff with his mouth:
"open!"
It makes people feel heartbroken and distressed.
Saturday one:
"I'll take care of this!"
Lin Xingxing smiled coldly:
"Solve it? How do you solve it? Can you follow me around the clock? How did they bully me? Am I missing a piece of flesh? Or did I break an arm? Can you lock them up? Or can you transfer me to another school?
Officer, you look only a few years older than me, don't you? How can you take care of mine if you can't even take care of your own business? "
After saying that, Lin Xingxing turned around and was about to leave, but Zhou Liuyi still stopped her:
"I'll see to it."
After leaving school, Zhou Liuyi and Li Hua both felt a little heavy.
Zhou Liuyi is a person who must see the results of what he does. When he saw the child being beaten, he must deal with the matter.
However, he had no experience in law enforcement, so he asked Li Hua:
"Brother Li, what do you think should be done about this?"
Li Hua pondered for a long time:
"Although they beat someone, it doesn't look like the injury was serious. They can say it was just a joke. Although they robbed money, there was no name written on the money. Only this part was monitored, and it was blurry because it was taken from a distance.
If we deal with it too harshly, the child who beat others will be sent to juvenile detention center, and the child who was beaten will be transferred to another school."
Saturday surprise:
“Why should the child who was beaten have to transfer schools?”
This is beyond his understanding. Is there any justice in the world?
Li Hua said helplessly:
"Children who are victims of school bullying are already isolated and have a hard time. When their bullies are sent to juvenile detention centers, they are criticized even more. In general, they are considered difficult to discipline and trouble-making by the school, and are advised to transfer to another school. I've handled several cases, and they were all handled this way in the end."
Saturday was silent.
Li Hua then said:
"I don't think that child has the conditions to transfer schools easily. It's been almost a month since the start of the school year. Even if he transfers, no school will accept him. Many children of his age simply drop out of school.
Do you still remember Kong Long?
The reason for his resume is that because his parents are divorced, he is the second child under the family planning policy and has never been registered. When he left the place where he was born, schools outside would not accept people without household registration.
He later made a living by cheating and deceiving people."
Kong Long was the first prisoner dealt with after Zhou Lu arrived at the Longhua Street Police Station on Saturday.
His skills in sneaking into houses, picking locks, and defrauding people are becoming more and more sophisticated.
If such a person had chosen a normal path, would things be completely different now?
Li Hua has obviously handled many cases like this, and has a condescending look:
"The affairs of a group of half-grown children are much more complicated than palace fighting.
Some children apologize and admit their mistakes in person, but play dirty tricks behind other children's backs and continue to bully other children. It is useful for the bullied children to complain at first, but they will be scared and dare not complain again later.
Others were intimidated, threatened, and mentally ill, but because they had no wounds on their bodies, teachers and parents did not take it seriously at all.”
When victims and perpetrators are in the same environment and lack supervision, it is easy for more violence to occur.
Zhou Liuyi understands that when it comes to issues involving teenagers, the law and law enforcement agencies handle them very cautiously.
It’s not like catching a thief on the street and first throwing him into a detention center and then to a detention house. The boundaries of the law are clear and explicit.
It's not like a friction between adults. If you need to call the police, call the police. If you need to find a lawyer to fight it out, just find a lawyer.
There is a direction to find .
These victims are young children who are inexperienced in the world and often have neither strong bodies to protect themselves nor strong financial strength to fight back.
They often become the silent majority.
When it comes to protecting the rights and interests of these vulnerable groups, it is often difficult to achieve a satisfactory result.
The car slowly drove through a green belt, and the scattered sunlight fell on Zhou Liuyi's face, creating jagged and overlapping shadows.
No matter how difficult it is, we must do it well!
Zhou Liuyi was not as pessimistic as Li Hua, and spoke in a firm tone:
"There is a way. The children deceived us just like the cheating students hiding from the invigilator, who could see everything clearly from the podium.
Whether to arrest or not, and how to arrest, is up to us, not those who cheated."
This tone sounds like a director, an instructor, or Xu Hai... just not like a rookie of this age.
Li Hua couldn't help but glance at Zhou Liuyi. In fact, Zhou Liuyi was only a few years older than those children, and his face also looked very young.
Zhou Liuyi's hands held the steering wheel firmly.
In the past, faced with such things, he was isolated and helpless and could only use the dumbest, most dangerous and most hopeless method, but now he is no longer a child.
Now he is wearing a police uniform, a police badge on his head, and driving a police car.
He has the right to deal with this kind of thing!
Back at the police station, Jiang Hanshan was looking at the alarm surveillance footage and the video uploaded from the law enforcement records, and he was so angry that he smoked one cigarette after another. The look behind his glasses was sharp and burning.
Usually he was elegant and easy-going, and looked like a civilian leader, but now he really looked like a cobra:
"School violence is one of the key rectification projects in Sanjiang City. Beating people under surveillance is really too bad."
Director Fu Sheng put his hands on his hips, his face livid, and was also looking for a solution:
"If this happened to an adult, he would definitely be charged with provoking a disturbance!"
After being stopped by the police, he again sought revenge, which is definitely a case of provoking trouble!
Picking quarrels and provoking trouble can lead to five years in prison!
Modern society develops so rapidly that if a normal person is locked up for five years, he will definitely be out of touch with society when he is released.
A five-year sentence can be said to have ruined a person.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with dealing with adults who knowingly break the law in this way.
However, they are minors, and no matter whether they are caught by the school or the police, the majority of the time they are criticized and educated.
School violence is an extremely gray area and the punishment is too severe. These are all children in their teens who are sent to juvenile detention centers, and their lives are almost ruined.
But if it is not solved properly, it will ruin the life of the child who is victim of violence.
The scale must be well grasped and the problem must be solved from the source.
The director is always cautious in dealing with such matters. He will gather ideas from all sides and even invite some experts from outside.
It was just time for work in the afternoon and everyone came over. The director called a meeting to see how to deal with this matter.
A group of policemen who have graduated for more than ten or twenty years look at such cases with wide eyes, like Zhang Fei identifying a needle.
Peng Zhiyuan slapped his hand on the table:
"Wouldn't it be better to just beat up those rascals?"
Jiang Hanshan was originally going to pass out cigarettes, but he slammed the cigarette box on the table:
"Be more civilized."
Xu Hai smiled lazily. Zhou Liuyi looked at Xu Hai. Xu Hai sat next to Zhou Liuyi and whispered to Zhou Liuyi:
"The instructor has shot and killed several drug dealers. Among the more than 40 people he has arrested in the cases he has handled, nearly 20 were sentenced to death, and they were executed immediately without any reprieve."
How can we call such people civilized?
Wang Caizhi was much more silent, smoking half of a cigarette in one puff, and then quietly left. Zhou Liuyi also came out on the pretext of getting some water, but saw Wang Caizhi by the window.
As Zhou Liu walked over, Wang Caizhi sighed:
"These types of repetitive mediation cases are the most difficult to handle. Don't take them lightly just because they are a bunch of kids."
Saturday nodded.
Wang Caizhi looked a little old, not as energetic as usual, and his voice was very low:
"I handled a mediation case before. The woman cheated on her husband and he took photos of her. The woman wanted to commit suicide, so he called the police.
During the mediation, the man told me in person that he forgave his wife and would live a good life in the future. I thought that since both of them had children and seemed to have decent jobs, they would have some concerns.
But later, the man contacted the lover privately and told the man that he had to slap his wife 30 times in the face so that she would not send the photos and videos of them in bed to the lover's wife.
The lover did as he was told, and the woman was beaten severely. She was sent to the hospital with concussion and tinnitus.
Then, the woman went home, sold a machete, went to her lover's workplace, stabbed him to death, and then committed suicide.
When we went over there, we saw two bodies, and then we contacted the criminal police and asked the forensic doctor to come over quickly. "
Zhou Liuyi's face turned blue.
After Wang Caizhi finished speaking, he felt that this kind of complicated family case was a kind of torture for young people, so he smiled as gently as possible:
“Just do your best.”
Saturday, a chill:
"clear."
Back in the office, the chief made two suggestions: the police station should solve the problem first and then ask higher authorities for the person.
Li Hua hadn't spoken yet, scratching his head and ears, Zhou Liu stood up and said:
"My suggestion is, first, we should prepare some legal education courses to deal with this group of students who commit campus violence. Second, we should improve the school facilities and strengthen the management of this area during patrols.
Two-pronged approach. ”
The director stroked his almost bald head and made the final decision:
"Let's do this first. Be careful not to intensify conflicts between students and ensure safety."
Jiang Hanshan put out his cigarette and glanced at Zhou Liuyi. This guy didn’t graduate from law school either, so how was he prepared?
He was actually looking forward to it!
However, as a young cadre who is like a stabilizing force, Jiang Hanshan thinks more long-term:
"This area is relatively close to the Puhua Electronics Factory and the middle school. We should set up a security booth. I'll write some materials and submit them."
The director said:
"But we don't have enough people."
Jiang Hanshan smiled and said:
"If you go there a few times a week and enforce strict discipline, you'll see results."
What I mean is, we take it very seriously.
Jiang Hanshan prepared a thick stack of materials like a teacher preparing for a lesson. Although it was very professional and systematic, and there were many domestic and foreign research results, it was dazzling. However, with so many advantages, there was a disadvantage:
Very boring, extremely boring.
Shi Wenwen and Huang Qingmei both dozed off while watching. Huang Qingmei exclaimed:
"If I did something wrong, I should be punished by law instead of having to read so many legal documents."
Shi Wenwen was even more confused:
“Is the case involving minors so complicated?”
The case that Jiang Hanshan brought over could be said to have shattered everyone's three views. A thirteen-year-old girl semi-voluntarily claimed that she was thirty years old and had relationships with more than a dozen people. Then her money was squandered by several of her classmates. The district court felt that this case was difficult to try and reported it to higher levels.
In order to become the class monitor, a student canvassed for votes by promising to give poor student quotas to anyone who voted for him, and would arrest and beat anyone who did not vote for him.
There was a boy whose girlfriend was cheating on him, so he asked all the boys in the class to go find that girl to settle the score, and then he stabbed her with a knife. The others who came to support him were all dumbfounded, but the sentences for those who came with knives and those who came empty-handed were different.
…
There are so many different kinds of crimes, so dazzling that it is hard to bear to look at the group of juvenile criminals.
Li Hua even escaped under the pretext of buying water.
The station has limited manpower available and there are so many other cases every day that they won't put all their police force on this case of campus bullying.
Only Zhou Liuyi was patient and kept tidying up.
When it was almost time to get off work in the afternoon, Jiang Hanshan called Zhou Liuyi and Li Hua over:
"What do you think should be taught in the legal lecture hall?"
Li Hua scratched his head, feeling very worried:
"Instructor, when I was in high school, I didn't understand what it meant to molest women and children, nor did I know what it meant for three people to become a gang. Especially the students in this school, their college entrance examination scores must be worse than mine, so how could they understand so many legal terms.
In every year’s bar exam, the pass rate for students from key universities is extremely low.
I think it's too difficult to make these high school students understand.
Can you make it easier to understand?"
Zhou Liuyi nodded beside him, and Jiang Hanshan asked him:
"What do you think?"
Saturday smiled and said:
"I think Li Hua is right."
Jiang Hanshan saw that Zhou Liu had spent a long time searching for the content of the Youth Legal Lecture Hall, and now he asked questions by name, but he did not steal Li Hua's limelight.
This child can handle it.
Jiang Hanshan arranged accordingly:
"Everyone, get ready. When you give a lecture, everyone should speak up. This will calm the situation down and eliminate this evil trend!"
Upon hearing this, Li Hua did not promise to complete the task, but his eyes widened and he waved his hands repeatedly:
"Me? I've never spoken a word in front of so many people, instructor. I can't do that."
Jiang Hanshan couldn't help but hold his forehead. If Zhou Liuyi had three times the courage of that kid, Li Hua would have become an excellent policeman.
He put his arm around Li Hua's shoulders:
"Hua Zi, go ahead. You will have many opportunities to speak in front of many people in the future. You will be awarded honors and titles for meritorious service. Just treat it as training. If you can't control these middle school students now, how can you survive in our two million police force in the future?"
Although Li Hua was a little nervous, he discussed it with Zhou Liuyi and others, wrote down one, two, three points on paper, and combined them with Jiang Hanshan's lesson plan, and went back and forth for a long time.
Before I knew it, it was time to get off work.
With this temporary addition of a task, we are short of manpower, but our workload is already very full at normal times.
After arresting someone, it is not just about taking a statement. Every physical examination, escort, confirmation of information... all require the signature of the person in charge, so this police station with less than ten people is already operating at a high capacity.
Huang Qingmei's job is to stamp documents. After 4:30 p.m., few people come to do business. Most people come in the morning. She finished her own work and was originally helping Zhou Liuyi with the materials, but she received a call in the middle and came back to pick up her bag:
"My mother has something urgent to talk to me about, so I'm leaving now."
Li Juan had to leave work at a certain time. She looked very apologetic:
"My son is a day student now, and his father is on a business trip. I'm leaving first. I'll come early tomorrow morning."
After saying that, she took out the lunch box from the drawer, hurriedly went to the cafeteria to get two dishes, changed her blue shirt, put on her daily clothes, pedaled her bicycle, and transformed from a heroic policewoman into a middle-aged mother who was rushing home from get off work and signing her child's homework, then merged into the traffic and left.
Jiang Hanshan came over leisurely to check Zhou Liuyi and Li Hua's lesson preparations. Suddenly, his cell phone rang. He looked at the memo, slapped his head, and suddenly remembered:
"Oh no, my child is still in school!"
He hurried out:
"My son told me that if I was the last one to pick him up, he wouldn't be first in the exam. If he was last, I would leave first."
The director and Zhang Guilan went to the branch office and urged them to send someone out quickly.
Most people have left.
When Zhou Liuyi looked up, he saw that in the huge office, there were only Xu Hai and Wang Caizhi, who were on duty tonight, and Shi Wenwen.
The two of them had no time to relax, but a nearby factory called the police saying that employees in the factory were fighting, one had his head cut open, and one had his eyes hit so hard that he couldn't open them, so they asked the police station to go there quickly.
On Saturday, when we went to the cafeteria to get some food, Shi Wenwen followed us.
I asked her on Saturday:
"What do you eat?"
Shi Wenwen looks like a spicy little pepper, but when she was alone with Zhou Liuyi, she was actually uneasy. Zhou Liuyi just gave her something.
I take meals very seriously on Saturdays because after meals there are still many things to do.
What you are eating is not a meal, it is recharging and replenishing energy.
Shi Wenwen picked up her chopsticks and took only a few bites:
"Senior, we were classmates in junior high school, do you still remember?"
ah?
Zhou Liuyi looked at Shi Wenwen suspiciously. Shi Wenwen was three years older than him. If the two had had contact in junior high and high school, would it be illegal based on their age?
On Saturday, I swallowed a handful of eggs and drank several gulps of water:
"Please watch your words."
Shi Wenwen was somewhat incoherent:
"No... I mean, if it weren't for you, we would have been in trouble. My parents were ready to transfer me and my brother to another school. I really think you are amazing..."
Saturday's eyes were sharp for a moment:
"Don't talk nonsense about things that don't exist. When the police investigate a case, they must look at the facts!"
Shi Wenwen was so frightened that she dropped her chopsticks, but Zhou Liu stood up, turned around and left, knocking over the stool.
That was a memory Zhou Liuyi didn't want to recall.
It made him feel bone-chillingly cold, as if he were falling into an ice cellar.
After dinner, Li Hua and I continued to work overtime.
Zhang Guilan called back and said that little Li Zixuan was out of danger. The parents said that they would bring the child to the police station to express their gratitude once the child fully recovered.
Li Hua was so excited that he spoke incoherently:
"No, no, as long as the child is healthy."
But there are some expectations:
"I won't be taking my annual leave next month. If the kids come over, I'll definitely be at the station."
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Liuyi smiled, but Li Hua said:
“Sometimes, I feel that this job is not cost-effective and it would be better to find a job in a factory. But every time this happens, I feel like a hero.
Did you watch martial arts movies as a child?
Of all the professions, the only ones that can satisfy my wish of being a hero holding a sword and doing good deeds are police, medical staff, and firefighters. However, most firefighters are active armed police officers, so they have been police officers for a longer time..."
As he spoke, Li Hua became more motivated.
I looked at the clock on Saturday:
"It's almost time for school to be over. Shall we get in the police car and take a walk around the school?"
The teaching building where Lin Xingxing and his classmates were located had classrooms on the second floor and above, so when the police car drove around and the sirens rang, there would definitely be people who could hear and see it, which was a deterrent to crime in itself.
The two men changed into police uniforms, got in the police car, and went to Puhua Middle School.
The alarm sounded loud, and some people even showed annoyance. Li Hua said:
"In the past, I also thought that the sound of police cars was a bit too loud and disturbing to the neighbors, but one night, I was on duty and went out on a police call. It was already midnight when I came back. A girl came to the police and said that she met a pervert on her way home from the night shift.
Originally, the pervert was stronger than her and had already subdued her. He was taking off her clothes and pants, so she definitely couldn't escape.
Just at this moment, a police car drove by, the sirens blaring loudly, and the pervert was scared away.
Later, we retrieved the surveillance footage of the surrounding roads and brought the man back.
But, at that time, I realized that our police cars and sirens can also deter criminals and protect our citizens.”
The police car slowly stopped at the traffic light in front of the school gate, waiting for the next green light to come on.
At this time, Zhou Liuyi saw Lin Xingxing riding a bicycle, pedaling past him.
The two looked at each other, and there was light in the little guy's eyes.
I looked at the watch on Saturday and saw that the get out of class was over in less than ten minutes. Lin Xingxing went directly from the teaching building to the parking lot to get his bicycle, and was not troubled by those bad students during the process.
He drove a police car to patrol for a week and also protected the child.
