Chapter 1359: Carriage conflict, Wang Xin is framed

The train from Ningyang to Shanghai not only takes a much longer round-trip time than the Ningha Line, but also stops at many more stations along the way. The number of passengers is relatively small at the beginning, but increases along the way.

Zhou Chen took over Lao Wang's shift and also served as the chief conductor. Besides him, there were three other conductors under him. Only one was younger than him, and the other two were much older than him.

However, although Zhou Chen is young, he is still quite famous in the passenger police team, and these three passenger police officers are very cooperative with his work.

The passengers on the train to Shanghai are very different from those on the Ningha Line. They seem more open and dress more fashionably. The closer you get to Shanghai, the more differences you can notice.

The Northeast has a vast territory, but to be honest, its level of prosperity is far behind that of other provinces and cities, especially first-tier cities like Shanghai.

But conversely, the longer the route, the more likely it is that something will happen. There were more than a dozen thefts on Zhou Chen's first trip, which was much busier than when he was running on the Ningha line.

When operating the Ningha line, Ma Kui and Yu Xingguo are the type of people who talk less but work more. Although Wang Xin talks a lot, he also works hard. So, in comparison, Zhou Chen, the conductor, has it much easier.

But on the train to Shanghai, except for the calm nights, during the day, all kinds of things are happening all the time, and people have to look for him for everything.

After the trip, Zhou Chen was very tired. He fell asleep on the bed as soon as he got home. He slept for more than ten hours before he fully recovered.

After waking up, Zhou Chen came to the Ma family.

"Auntie, let me give you acupuncture."

"Zhou Chen, you're back. Lao Ma is out driving and not at home. You haven't had dinner yet, right? We just made it. Let's eat together and then start again."

Wang Sufang invited Zhou Chen into the house. Ma Yan was supporting little Ma Jian, who was learning to walk with unsteady steps.

Ma Yan also greeted him, "Zhou Chen, you went to Shanghai, right? Shanghai is very prosperous, much more prosperous than our Ningyang?"

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Shanghai is indeed much more prosperous than our Ningyang, and it is also developing much faster than here."

"Really? I wonder how it compares to the capital. I really want to go to Shanghai and see it for myself."

Previously, in order to take Wang Sufang to the capital for medical treatment, her family went there specially. At that time, she was shocked by the prosperity of the capital. Compared with the capital, Ningyang was like a countryside.

At Wang Sufang's invitation, Zhou Chen did not refuse and had a simple meal at Ma's house.

Shortly after dinner, Zhou Chen began to give Wang Sufang acupuncture treatment. Afterwards, he patted Wang Sufang's back, causing Wang Sufang to cough up a lot of blood and bloody sputum.

"Zhou Chen, thank you. I feel much better now."

Wang Sufang was sincerely grateful. She had lived a very comfortable life during this year. Zhou Chen's treatment prevented her health from deteriorating further and instead made her feel much more relaxed. Most importantly, she did not become bedridden and become a burden to her family.

Now, except for the day when Zhou Chen helps her with treatment and she needs a good rest, she can do housework and take care of the children normally at other times without affecting her life.

This, for her, was enough.

"Aunt, don't say that. Uncle Ma has told me so many times. When we were in the car, he rushed to help me and wanted to finish all my work."

Wang Sufang and Ma Yan both laughed good-naturedly when they heard this. They knew that this was something Ma Kui would do, and they also understood why Ma Kui did this.

Zhou Chen treated Wang Sufang for a year and did not charge them any medical fees. At most, he just had a meal and some drinks at their home. Ma Kui was grateful and naturally wanted to repay Zhou Chen in other ways.

Not only Ma Kui, but they also did the same, often sending Zhou Chen some dumplings, buns, etc.

It was said that he would take over the shift for a month, but it was not until the 40th day that Lao Wang came back. With Lao Wang's return, Zhou Chen could also return to the Ningha Line train.

Back on the train on the Ningha Line, a group of people surrounded Zhou Chen and asked him about the Ninghu Line, especially the situation in Shanghai, which aroused everyone's curiosity.

In fact, Zhou Chen went to Shanghai several times, but he didn't spend much time there. However, he was still very familiar with Shanghai. Even in the late 1970s, it did not affect his description of the situation in Shanghai to everyone.

When Wang Xin saw Zhou Chen, his eyes were filled with tears.

"Zhou Chen, you're finally back. You don't know how exhausted I have been these past few days."

Due to the shortage of manpower, they did not add any new staff after Zhou Chen was temporarily transferred away. Even with the three of them working all the time, it is definitely much busier than when there were four people.

"It's tiring, but the salary is higher, right? You get what you pay for."

"Not much more, but now that you're back, I can finally be free. You don't know, during this period of time, Lao Ma has been tormenting me terribly. He..."

Wang Xin chattered to Zhou Chen about what had happened during this period, mainly emphasizing how badly he was tortured by Ma Kui and so on.

"I went to Uncle Ma's house yesterday to help Auntie with acupuncture, and I heard from Ma Yan that you and Yao Yuling are dating?"

Zhou Chen's words immediately made Wang Xin, who had always been thick-skinned, blush. He replied shyly, "Just now, we just got together a few days ago."

"I also heard that Niu Dali almost had a fight with you because of this?"

"That's impossible. This matter has nothing to do with Niu Dali. Niu Dali likes Yao Yuling, but Yao Yuling doesn't like him. He is just being sentimental. Even if I wasn't there, Yao Yuling wouldn't be with him. How can you blame me for this?"

Wang Xin was very dissatisfied. He didn't feel that he had done anything wrong to Niu Dali, but Niu Dali acted like a victim and wanted him to break up with Yao Yuling. How could he agree to that?

"Just like the love letter incident last time, it was not written by Yao Yuling to Niu Dali, but by Cai Xiaonian, who......"

Wang Xin was about to describe the situation in detail to Zhou Chen, but Ma Kui came over at this time.

"Wang Xin, go on patrol. You've been sitting here for a long time, but you still don't have any self-awareness."

"Here it comes, here it comes, really."

Wang Xin was helpless, but he still stood up obediently and followed.

Lu Hongxing held the teacup and walked over to sit opposite Zhou Chen.

"I have been running the Nanjing-Shanghai line for more than a month. Compared with our Nanjing-Harbin line, which one do you think is more comfortable?"

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "When it comes to work, there is no such thing as comfortable or uncomfortable. However, the Nanjing-Shanghai line is indeed more tiring than our Nanjing-Harbin line. A round trip takes too long, and there are more things to do on the train than here. Of course, the salary is also slightly higher than ours, haha."

"That's true."

Lu Hongxing also smiled, but he still preferred the Ningha line he ran. Once people stay in a position for a long time, they will form a habit and are unwilling to change.

"Uncle Lu, I'll go out and take a look."

"Okay, then you are busy."

Zhou Chen walked out of the dining car and went to the passenger car in the front. There were still as many passengers on the Ningha line as usual.

He has been on this Ningha line for more than two years. Many passengers who take this train regularly know him and greet him when they see him.

"Officer Zhou, I haven't seen you for a long time. I thought you were transferred."

"Officer Zhou, are you taking leave to go home and get married?"

"No, I was transferred to another shift and just came back."

"Officer Zhou..."

Zhou Chen responded with a smile to those who greeted him. They knew Zhou Chen and he also had an impression of them.

When he passed the interface of a carriage, he saw another acquaintance, but before he could speak, the other party called him first.

"Xiao Zhou, hahaha."

"Brother, what a coincidence, have you eaten yet?"

"I ate it, I ate it. I heard from Lao Ma that you were transferred to another route, so I thought I wouldn't see you for a long time."

"I'm just on a temporary transfer, so how are you doing lately?"

"What else can I do? It's the same as always."

"Brother, are you really prepared to spend your whole life in this car?"

The old blind man smacked his lips and said, "Otherwise, I don't have any other wishes in this life. I just want to find my daughter. So unless I can't move one day, then I will find a place to wait for death. Otherwise, I will still try my best to find my daughter."

"Then I wish you to find your daughter soon."

Having said that, both Zhou Chen and the old blind man knew that the possibility of finding it was almost zero.

Regardless of whether his daughter was abducted or taken away by a kind-hearted person, more than ten years have passed, and there have been many years of turmoil in between. He doesn't know whether his daughter is dead or alive. Where can he find her?

This is just the old blind man's belief. If he didn't even have this belief, he wouldn't know whether he should continue to live.

As they were talking, there was suddenly a commotion in the carriage ahead, and people were swarming around, as if something had happened.

Zhou Chen stood up and looked over. The old blind man knocked with his cane and said, "Something seems to have happened over there. Why don't you go over and take a look?"

"Okay, I'll go over and take a look. If you need anything later, come find me in the restaurant on the bus."

"What can I do? Just go and do your thing."

Zhou Chen walked towards the front carriage, crossed one carriage and came to the next carriage, where he saw Ma Kui and Yu Xingguo controlling two men.

"Uncle Ma, Brother Yu, what's going on?"

Ma Kui said, "These two are thieves, and they have accomplices. Wang Xin went to chase them, and they are just ahead."

"Okay, I'll go over and take a look."

This kind of petty theft is a common occurrence, so Zhou Chen didn't take it too seriously. He walked forward. The next carriage was the train restaurant.

"Make way, everyone, make way, everyone, make way."

Zhou Chen pushed aside the crowd blocking the way in front of him and saw Mr. Wang in the dining car through the glass on the door.

Inside the dining car, Wang Xin was standing there with handcuffs in his hands, looking helpless. On the ground in front of him, a man wearing a hat, with blood on his nose and face, was yelling.

"Everyone, you have to testify for me. The police beat me. Look how they beat me. There's blood all over me."

"I told you I didn't hit you, stop talking nonsense."

"If you don't hit me, will I bleed? Guys, just look at me. I was going to the restaurant to eat, and when I got to the door I saw a wallet. Just as I was about to pick it up, he accused me of stealing it. You said I hadn't even picked it up yet, so how could I have stolen it? No matter how I explained, he didn't believe me, and then he went up and shot me with a cannon, causing blood to flow from my nose. He was so cruel."

The man spoke pitifully and screamed loudly, as if he was in real pain.

Wang Xin got angry and shouted, "You are such a good storyteller. If you keep making up stories, I will beat you up."

"Did you hear that, guys? Listen to this. They just finished fighting, and they're going to fight again. What a vicious and cruel person this guy is."

Wang Xin was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, so he walked over and was about to handcuff him forcibly, but was stopped by a passenger nearby.

"Comrade, you said he stole my wallet, do you have any evidence?"

Wang Xin was interrupted and felt a little uncomfortable. He looked at the passenger in the Zhongshan suit and asked, "Comrade, who are you?"

…………

Before he even entered, he heard a quarrel coming from inside, which made his expression change slightly. After he went in and saw the situation inside, he frowned even more.

Wang Xin was arguing with the passenger in the Zhongshan suit, and the thief on the ground was fanning the flames, making Wang Xin, who was already angry, even more angry.

"...As a law enforcement officer, you should abide by the law and enforce it in a civilized manner."

"Comrade."

Wang Xin was about to refute when Zhou Chen walked in and pressed his shoulders. Wang Xin turned around and saw that it was Zhou Chen.

"Wang Xin, what's going on?"

In fact, when Zhou Chen saw this scene, he had already guessed what was going on. He knew that if things continued to develop in this way, Wang Xin would be in trouble, so he stood up.

Wang Xin explained: "This kid stole someone's wallet and was caught by me. He tried to escape, but he beat himself up and falsely accused me of beating him up. This comrade prevented me from arresting him and insisted that I tortured him into confessing. I was just explaining this."

"Hey, hey, young comrade, you can't talk nonsense. When did I hinder you from arresting people? I was talking to you about something. It's wrong for you to hit people and torture them to extract confessions."

"I made it very clear, I didn't hit anyone."

"You didn't hit me, so how did the blood on my face come from..."

"Okay, don't talk, I'll handle it."

Zhou Chen stopped the angry Wang Xin, turned his head to look at the thief on the ground, and then looked at the man in the Zhongshan suit.

"Hello, comrade. I am the conductor on the train."

The man in the Zhongshan suit nodded and said, "Hello, you are the captain of the flight attendant. The quality of your young comrade really needs to be improved. Now the higher authorities are vigorously promoting the rule of law in our country. As law enforcement officers, you must abide by the law and enforce the law in a civilized manner. But your young comrade hit people and tortured them to extract confessions. This is illegal."

"I do not……"

Wang Xin was about to speak when he was stopped by Zhou Chen.

"Comrade, you said Wang Xin beat someone up. Did you see it with your own eyes?"

The man in the Zhongshan suit pointed at the thief on the ground and said, "He's like this, isn't it obvious?"

"That is to say, you didn't see Wang Xin beating anyone with your own eyes, right?"

"No, the person is like this, his nose and face are covered in blood, if he didn't beat him, could he have beaten himself?"

"Why couldn't he have done it himself?"

"you……"

The man in the Zhongshan suit was obviously choked by Zhou Chen's words and wanted to refute, but Zhou Chen spoke first.

"Comrade, we are police officers. We have seen many more prisoners than you have. The cunning of prisoners is much more complicated than you think. In order to escape the laws and regulations, they can do anything. They have no bottom line. They beat themselves and falsely accuse others. It is normal for people like them."

The thief on the ground got anxious: "You're talking nonsense, you, it was obviously him who beat me up, you're covering it up, I understand, you're in the same group, the police are covering up for the police, bullying us powerless ordinary people, my god, everyone, did you see it? The police beat people up, and you still want to cover it up, you're bullying people..."

The man in the Zhongshan suit was originally a little hesitant, but when he saw the man crying so miserably, he no longer listened to what Zhou Chen said.

"Comrade Chief Cheng, you heard me, right? Regardless of whether he is a criminal or not, even if he is, you have no right to beat him. You are using violent law enforcement and torture to extract a confession."

Wang Xin said angrily: "Zhou Chen, why are you wasting time talking to him? Just arrest this guy and interrogate him and everything will be clear."

"Comrade Chief of Police, you heard that, didn't you? Is that how this young comrade handled the case? You arrested people at will, you beat people at will. As public officials, the people gave you the power, not for you to abuse the power of law enforcement."

Facing the angry man in the Mao suit, Zhou Chen said calmly: "Comrade, you are exaggerating. First of all, we do not use violence in law enforcement, nor do we use torture to extract confessions. Sometimes what you hear may not be true. Secondly, it is easy to prove whether he is a thief or not, and whether he has stolen anything. We can find out by just catching him and searching him."

As he said this, he winked at Wang Xin, who immediately understood and rushed towards the thief on the ground.

"Hey, what rights do you have to arrest people?"

The man in the Zhongshan suit stood up angrily and was about to stop Wang Xin, but Zhou Chen stood in front of him and held his hand.

"Comrade, comrade, don't worry. We can prove the truth by searching. If he is really not a thief, we promise to apologize to him in front of everyone. At that time, we will also accept the supervision and punishment of the organization and the people."

After pressing the man back into his seat, Zhou Chen went over and together with Wang Xin lifted the thief up from the ground.

"Wang Xin, hold him down, I'll search him."

But Wang Xin whispered: "He just lost his wallet."

The thief, who was struggling, stopped struggling upon hearing this. Instead, he straightened his body and allowed Zhou Chen to search him while shouting loudly.

"Search, I asked you to search, I didn't steal anything, I have a clear conscience, I am right wherever I go, if, if..."

He stopped talking abruptly before he could finish his words. His eyes suddenly widened and his face was full of disbelief.

Zhou Chen patted him and took out a black wallet from his arms. It was not his wallet at all because he did not have any wallet on him.

"This this……"

Zhou Chen snorted coldly: "What is this? Tell me, is this your wallet?"

"I, I, this, is, yes, this is my own wallet."
