South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Time passed, and the Spring Festival arrived in a blink of an eye. This was the first time that Yuan Mu spent the Spring Festival outside since he traveled through time. He had always been in prison before.

After all, people have to be on duty during the New Year in prison, and Yuan Mu has no one at home, so he leaves the opportunity to others and takes over the duty for others.

It wasn't even the New Year yet, but Old Ma brought his family to help Yuan Mu clean the house, sweeping it inside and out.

On the Chinese New Year's Day, Yuan Mu spent the holiday at Lao Ma's home at their invitation, and it was quite lively.

It's true that the New Year in this compound is really festive. On the morning of the first day of the New Year, families come to pay New Year's greetings. Yuan Mu also follows them from house to house. When he sees someone wishing him a happy new year, he gives them a red envelope. It's not much money, but just for good luck.

We all ate and drank together, it was quite happy. In the evening, we set off fireworks and firecrackers with a bunch of kids to find the joy of childhood.

In a blink of an eye, the years passed, and Yuan Mu was one year older, successfully reaching the age of twenty-five. Being unmarried at this age is considered old in this era, and normal people at this age would have children running around.

Aunt Cai, Aunt Lu, and Aunt Wu in the courtyard also tried to introduce someone to Yuan Mu, but Yuan Mu refused. In his opinion, there was no rush to get married, and he had no intention of getting married before he found the right person.

Just like in his previous life, he got married at the age of 35. Of course, that does not rule out the factor of his family urging him to get married.

People who work in their field look respectable and glamorous; they are police officers who specialize in catching criminals. But only those who work in this field know how hard this job is.

For example, in the love-murder case that Yuan Mu handled before, there was no peace for several months in a row and he was not at home at all. If he were married, his wife would definitely complain.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It was the familiar train again. Yuan Mu set out on the journey again, and the case had to be continued.

The weather in May has gradually become warmer. In the months after the New Year, Yuan Mu and his Fifth Team handled several cases, but none of them were big cases.

For example, there has been no news about Lu Fei's gang before. They seem to have disappeared in Ningyang. Last year, they were said to have appeared in Songlin, but when Yuan Mu and others arrived, they found nothing.

This is the bad thing about this era. It is too difficult to find out about a person, and you can use a fake name when taking a train or something.

Last time when we were handling the case of Tan Hui, it was fortunate that this kid didn't know how to adapt and didn't have the ability to counter-detect. Otherwise, if he had changed his name, it would have been difficult for Yuan Mu to find him.

This time, Yuan Mu's destination is Harbin, in order to investigate a case of human trafficking. Yes, these human traffickers are really hard to stop, they are always there.

Really, don't fall into his hands, otherwise he will be in trouble. I haven't touched it for several months, and my hands are itching.

"People's Daily editorial: The current focus of the entire D's work should be on socialist modernization and the in-depth implementation of the reform and opening-up policy." At this time, Yao Yuling's voice came from the train radio.

Now that the country has officially reformed and opened up, not many people have gone into business, but there are some bold ones who have done so, and these first batch of people are also the ones who can make money most easily.

"Brothers and sisters, look here and see what's good about my sunglasses. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. I'll talk about it for a week. On Monday, I feel refreshed. On Tuesday, I look pretty. On Wednesday, I have bright eyes."

"Good luck at work on Thursday, your wife will love you on Friday, your children will respect you on Saturday, and eat well and sleep well on Sunday!" At this time, a young man with a southern accent and wearing sunglasses and clothes that were very fashionable in that era came over. He was holding a small box in his hand, which was filled with sunglasses.

The sunglasses in his hand are what are called frog-eye glasses in this era. They are in short supply here and almost impossible to buy. They are a very novel thing, but they are no longer a new thing in the south.

Yuan Mu also looked at the young man, and saw that everyone in the car was looking at him, and they were all very interested in the sunglasses in his arms.

Just then, Wang Xin rushed over from another carriage. He came over because he heard the noise here, but he was also attracted by the scene and just stood there and watched.

"What are you looking at!" At this time, Lao Ma also rushed over and pushed Wang Xin aside.

"Uncle Ma, there's someone selling frog-eye glasses in front." Wang Xin smiled and pointed to the front.

"Okay, okay! Stop watching! Go back to your seats!" Lao Ma stepped forward and dispersed the crowd.

"Hello, police comrade." The young man greeted with a smile.

"Young man, who are you?" Ma Kui looked him up and down and then asked.

“I’m from Wenzhou.”

"What are you doing?" Lao Ma looked at his sunglasses and asked.

"Selling sunglasses."

"Selling sunglasses? Do you know what you are doing?"

"I'm just selling sunglasses." Xiao Wenzhou was a little confused.

"You are speculating!"

As soon as Lao Ma said this, the scene suddenly became quiet. The word "speculation" has been deeply rooted in people's bones. If they were put together, they would be arrested directly.

"How can this be considered speculation? I didn't know that sunglasses can't be sold on trains, otherwise I wouldn't be able to sell them either." Xiao Wenzhou laughed dryly.

"Okay, take your things and follow me." Old Ma said, and walked forward and grabbed Xiao Wenzhou's arm.

"He is still a child. Why are you doing the same thing as him?" At this time, Wang Xin stepped forward and advised.

"Get out of my way!" Lao Ma glared and shouted.

"Hey!" Wang Xin immediately stopped moving.

When passing by Yuan Mu, Lao Ma looked at Yuan Mu and the two of them greeted each other.

"Mingyu, I'll go over there." After explaining to Mingyu next to him, Yuan Mu stood up and followed him.

In the dining car, Lao Ma placed the sunglasses box in front of Captain Lu.

"Old Lu, take a look at this matter, what should we do?"

"It's hard to say now." Old Lu shook his head.

"What's there to be afraid of?" Old Ma frowned.

In fact, the reason why Lao Ma is like this is because he has been through that era and has suffered losses, so he is very sensitive to such things.

At this time, Yuan Mu pushed open the door of the dining car and walked in.

"What's going on? I think he was caught by someone."

"Old Yuan, it's a good thing that you're here. He is selling sunglasses, which is obviously an act of speculation. What do you think we should do?" Old Ma looked at Yuan Mu and said.

"If you ask me, no way." Yuan Mu sat opposite Wang Xin and said lightly.

"What? Not going to do it? Lao Yuan, you are a police officer, how can you say such words?" Lao Ma immediately raised his voice and frowned.

"Old Ma, what era is it now? Reform has begun, the government has signed a decree, and individual transactions are now allowed."
