Chapter 03: Who is False and Who is True

"It can't be wrong, his surname is Yu, and his given name is Zui, please come in, Director Xu." The instructor extended his hand courteously in a gesture of invitation, and Xu Pingqiu stepped out.

Indeed, without any smoking or drinking habits, can that still be discerned

Xu Pingqiu found the situation with Jie Bing somewhat awkward and smiled as he explained: "Please have a seat, classmate Jie Bing. I am not targeting you. In fact, having a family background as privileged as yours is something that most people would envy."

Director Shi provided everyone with a rather complex answer. Observing the slightly disappointed expressions of the students, he smiled, noting that even knowing the answer can be quite absurd. He raised the few remaining forms and called out, indicating that there were indeed some who had engaged in intense ideological struggles before finally making a decision. A chubby boy, looking somewhat dazed, rushed up to take one; it seemed he had been in a fierce battle of thoughts, only settling on his choice at the last moment, and this was the final form distributed. As Director Shi smiled and exited the classroom, the noise inside had already escalated, and he clearly heard one of the loudest remarks:

Amidst the laughter of the entire class, Dou Bao was impressed by Xu Pingqiu's demeanor and turned back to Yu Zui with a stern expression, saying: "Yu, it seems the old man has some skills, doesn't he?"

Indeed, it is quite remarkable," An Jialu said with a smile

This fellow is typically characterized by a chilling demeanor, never believing in the organization. When Doubao did not echo his sentiments, he ignored him and turned his attention to the director at the podium, who spoke with such precision that it was akin to a book. The director managed to put the usually arrogant and self-important Xie Bing in his place, and such an ability to discern character truly captivated the inexperienced young trainees.

Indeed, Director Shi, his father runs an auction house, specializing in the auction of artworks

Then there was a burst of laughter, and shouts arose. This scene reminded Section Chief Shi of his days at the police academy, where they called each other by those peculiar nicknames, evoking a sense of familiarity. He closed the door, shutting out the noise from the classroom.

The data cannot reflect the true quality. Xu Pingqiu shook his head

The only one who did not applaud was Xu Pingqiu, who noticed that the person in the back row had lazily straightened up, playing with a pen in hand, performing the habitual gestures of a student, spinning the pen on his thumb, a sign of extreme boredom. He was slightly surprised and took note of that face, which was indeed hard to remember; it was neither ugly nor handsome, belonging to that type of ordinary cabbage found by the roadside, easily overlooked at first glance

"You fool, just look at that pretentious person who washes his face after breaking the ice and puts on perfume. It's obvious he's a rich second-generation official. Do I need to guess?" Yu Zui said, unimpressed.

Do you think a person who pays such close attention to their lifestyle habits would have any bad habits

"What about your preferences for tobacco and alcohol?" a boy asked

"Yu Zui? Oh, he is Yu Zui. Upon seeing the list, I find it hard to relate - image - letter, this is a personal name." Xu Pingqiu reacted unusually, "Yu Zui" is a legal concept, referring to crimes that have been concealed and not disclosed.

I am looking for someone with limitless potential to be tapped into, is there anyone?" Xu Pingqiu asked with a sharp tone.

I don't know, you choose. " the instructor said with a smile

Director Shi was distributing the forms and had almost finished when he noticed An Jialu standing beside him. He asked curiously, "What’s the matter, An student?"

"What is the name of the person sitting in the left rear corner?" Xu Pingqiu casually asked the instructor. The instructor turned around to take a look and replied casually, "His name is Yu Zui."

Is Director Xu really as legendary as they say? I have read his reports and internal documents, and we privately refer to him as the King of Police. An Jialu said, her tone tinged with admiration; young women are always easily moved by the deeds of great heroes, especially when they are in the same profession. As she spoke, a group of over a dozen boys and girls gathered around, gossiping and asking about the serial killer, the interprovincial drug trafficking case, and the explosion in the Long Steel Workers' District, all of them showing a keen interest in those investigations that later sounded like tales from a fantasy.

A group of people left with laughter for a moment. When Xu Pingqiu turned around, he saw the students rushing to grab the forms. He deliberately searched for the student who had been whispering earlier and found him still talking, his indifferent demeanor suggesting that it had nothing to do with him at all

The students surrounded Section Chief Shi, chattering excitedly. A few girls deliberately teased An Jialu, insisting on discussing this matter. However, it was evident from their words that these novices were indeed intimidated by Xu's gaze. At this moment, Jie Bing stood beside Section Chief Shi, seemingly quite proud of the students' confusion. He appeared to come from a well-off family. Section Chief Shi smiled and said, "Do you think this is amazing?"

What does it mean to deceive? It seems that they guessed correctly. Dou Bao said, looking as if Xu Pingqiu was impressed.

Mouse, can you run over there in 5,000 meters? What is the point of competing for elite status?

Turning back, calling those who came along, he urged: "Next, those who aspire to join the elite competition, please come to Director Shi to register and collect the forms, which should be submitted before class this afternoon. We will stay here for three to five days, and when we leave, I will take all the elites from the police academy with me to build a renowned iron police force in the future"

Applause, this special team is always easily inspired by passionate words. As soon as Director Shi stepped forward, quite a few rushed to grab the forms. An Jia Lu, sitting in the third row, turned her head and asked the somewhat disappointed Xie Bing: "Are you going to sign up or not?"

What kind of person are you looking for? Well, their instructor is here; why not just ask him directly? Director Jiang said to the librarian

Hello, students, students, discipline is important. The details of the case cannot be disclosed casually. Once you become a criminal investigator, you can look it up on the internal network yourself. Now, who else would like to sign up?" Director Shi was a bit taken aback by the enthusiasm of the students and was trying to dodge the question, but unexpectedly, An Jialu was not letting it go and pressed on: "What about just now?"

I can be just as impressive. Do you believe it?" Director Shi smiled and pointed at Jie Bing, saying: "Look, Jie Bing's shirt collar is very clean, and his fingernails are well-groomed; one can immediately tell about his lifestyle habits.

You report to me, and I will report to you. Set a specific condition for the ice-breaking.

How did Xu notice at a glance that Jie Bing has a particular fondness for painting and appreciation in this regard

What just happened

Others can see it; it shouldn't be too difficult to notice that I didn't pursue Jialu, right

"Of course I will report it." An Jialu stood up, and Jie Bing quickly followed suit, naturally feeling the need to report as well

Such enthusiasm made Xu Pingqiu particularly pleased. When he stood next to his old classmates and Principal Wang, Principal Wang casually remarked: "Pingqiu, you just need to select from the personal information; there’s no need to make such a big deal out of it. Isn’t it a bit harsh on the children who are not selected?"

A step forward, comforted by the fact that I have gained some face. As I sat down, Xu Pingqiu turned around and continued: "In the Sherlock Holmes investigations, the most frequently used method is to judge an individual's behavioral patterns through details. The reason Sherlock Holmes has captivated the world is not because the cases are particularly thrilling, but because what he narrates are things that an ordinary person can accomplish... However, these are also the things that ordinary people tend to overlook. By picking up on these details, one day, you will find that you too can be a Sherlock Holmes, perhaps even better than he was"

"How can you deceive us so easily?" Yu Zui said with a smile

"What about the artistic flavor? How do you see it?" asked a young woman

Though the voice was silent, it seemed to resonate deeply within a group of novices. The student An Jialu was first surprised and then astonished, truly captivated by the gaze of the old police officer. She led the applause, followed by two or three others, and soon the entire classroom was filled with continuous clapping. Regardless of the bizarre question, one could discern the character of Jie Bing with just a glance, and thus deserved some applause.

Looking at the iPad on his desk, even the cover is carefully selected, adorned with artistic designs; one would need a discerning eye to appreciate such details. Director Shi pointed at the tablet on Xie Bing's desk and smiled, then turned back to see Xie Bing looking both embarrassed and somewhat pleased. He added, "Look at the watch he’s wearing, a high-end sports watch. And check the brand of his shirt; if we can’t deduce his family background, then we, as criminal investigators, must be quite foolish. I, as an internal affairs officer, am the least skilled. A true criminal investigator can analyze your general personality tendencies just by looking at you... Who else is signing up?"
