罪恶有痕 39

 

就在胖警察气势汹汹地站到庄立群面前的时候，门突然开了，一个中年男人不紧不慢地走了进来。胖警察看到来人立马换成了笑脸。“刘队，这小子不好好交代还嘴硬。”

”那你也不能用这种态度吧？”中年男人的话充满力度。胖警察知道自己理亏，尴尬地站在一旁。中年人抬手示意他出去。

胖警察走后，坐在胖警察旁边做笔记的年轻警察好奇地看着中年人。只见中年人挪过一把椅子在庄立群旁边坐下。

“小孙，你给他倒杯水吧！”

年轻人愣了一愣。狐疑地看了一眼中年人后起身倒水去了。

“庄立群，我先自我介绍一下吧。我叫刘明天，是你的案子的主要负责人。我们先随便聊聊好吗？”

就在胖警察氣勢洶洶地站到莊立群面前的時候，門突然開了，一個中年男人不緊不慢地走了進來。胖警察看到來人立馬換成了笑臉。“劉隊，這小子不好好交代還嘴硬。”

”那你也不能用這種態度吧？”中年男人的話充滿力度。胖警察知道自己理虧，尷尬地站在一旁。中年人抬手示意他出去。

胖警察走後，坐在胖警察旁邊做筆記的年輕警察好奇地看著中年人。只見中年人挪過一把椅子在莊立群旁邊坐下。

“小孫，你給他倒杯水吧！”

年輕人愣了一愣。狐疑地看了一眼中年人後起身倒水去了。

“莊立群，我先自我介紹一下吧。我叫劉明天，是你的案子的主要負責人。我們先隨便聊聊好嗎？”

Traces of Sin  39

 

As soon as the plump officer stood in front of Zhuang Liqun intimitately, the door opened and a middle-aged man came in composedly. The plump officer smiled at him immediately. “Liu Sir, this guy doesn’t cooperate at all.”

“What about your attitude?” Middle-aged man asked right back. The plump officer stood awkwardly knowing he was in the wrong. “Middle-age” signaled him to leave.

After he left, the young police officer who was sitting beside him observed “middle-age”curiously. “Middle-age”moved a chair to Zhuang’s side and sat himself down.

“Sun, could you get him a glass of water please?”

The young officer was a bit surprised. Then he cast a doubtful glance at “middle-age”and went to get the water.

“Zhuang Liqun, please let me introduce myself. My name is Liu Mingtian. I’m mainly responsible for your case. Can we have a little chat first?”
