Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 94 Cannon to fight mosquitoes

The crime of abandonment is a criminal offense, so after receiving the report, such cases will be transferred to the criminal police team.

Yu Dazhang had handled several similar cases in his previous life.

The target population for abandonment is usually the elderly, the young, the sick, or those who are otherwise unable to live independently.

This type of case is not difficult, but it is difficult to handle.

Because there is a saying involved here: Every family has its own problems.

Do you think that such things happen less frequently now?
Quite the opposite.

As I said, reality is cruel.

Isn’t it incredible?

The economic level is getting better and better, but why are the number of abandoned babies increasing?

There are too many reasons. If I write them all out, you’ll probably accuse me of padding the word count.

So let me just talk about the two most important ones.

1. Compulsory premarital examination has been cancelled.

After the cancellation, very few people took the initiative to undergo premarital examinations, which led to a surge in the number of newborns with congenital malformations.

2. The phenomenon of pregnancy before marriage is becoming more and more common.

There is really no way to explain this.

Since the 1990s, young people have become more and more open-minded and have been playing more and more unconventionally.

Just caring about being comfortable but not wanting to take responsibility.

The country is also troubled, so since 2005, college students have been allowed to get married.

Let me tell you another good news.

Now, even if you are not married and do not have a marriage certificate, your child can be registered.

Children born out of wedlock can register with their mother or their father. This will be implemented in 2021.

When Yu Dazhang arrived at the hospital, he found that another police officer had already arrived and was waiting for him at the gate.

The police officer's name is Ma Jian, he is 28 years old. He has cooperated with Yu Dazhang several times in the past few days. They are the ones who stake out the areas together during the day.

"Brother Ma, sorry for the wait."

"No, I just arrived."

After saying hello, the two walked into the hospital. Ma Jian led the way and said as he walked:

"The person who reported the case is a nurse in the pediatric department. Let's go find her first to find out the details."

"Have you read the police report?" Yu Dazhang asked.

"Here." Ma Jian took out a document from his bag and handed it to him:
"The detachment had just received the report not long ago, and I read it."

After Yu Dazhang took it, he slowed down and read it quickly.

The content is very simple.

There is a six-year-old patient in the pediatric department. Previously, his parents took turns to take care of him, but today, neither of them came to the hospital all day.

The nurse called them at night and found that both of their cell phones were turned off.

When the nurse realized something was wrong, she immediately reported the matter to her leader, who finally decided to call the police.

From the literal meaning, it is obvious that the patient's parents were unwilling to continue paying the medical bills, so they chose to abandon the child in the hospital.

The two soon arrived at the pediatric department and found the nurse who reported the case.

After revealing his identity, Ma Jian asked:

"Have the child's parents ever lost contact before?"

The female nurse looked to be in her thirties, wearing a white coat, and was very calm. She answered:
"It has never happened before. Since the child was hospitalized, at least one of them has stayed in the hospital to take care of him."

After Ma Jian quickly took notes, he continued to ask:
“What about the patient’s payment status?”

"I'm already in arrears." The nurse said this with a look of helplessness on her face:

"I urged the patient's father to pay the fee yesterday afternoon, but he still hasn't paid it."

While they were talking, Yu Dazhang looked around.

The clean and tidy environment, various medical equipment, and bright and spacious wards all show that the interior has just been renovated.

Although Yu Dazhang didn't know much about medical equipment, from all angles, this hospital was not low-end. If you didn't have money, why did you bring your child here for medical treatment?

Could it be that they were prepared to abandon the child from the beginning and so found a high-end hospital for the child?
Yu Dazhang is used to looking for suspicious points first when investigating a case.

Then make bold assumptions based on various doubts.

Sometimes it is also necessary to simulate the suspect's psychology and thinking.

Although the case is small, everything must be treated with caution.

Ma Jian asked a few more questions, all about the patient and his parents. The female nurse answered fluently and in detail.

These days, whenever two people form a team, Ma Jian is responsible for the specific work.

First, Li Jun had already said hello.

Anyone who teams up with Yu Dazhang on a mission should be made to feel as relaxed as possible.

This is a patient who is receiving psychological counseling.

Second, everyone in the detachment believed that people like Yu Dazhang were no longer suitable for investigating these minor cases.

In everyone's eyes, this is no different from using a cannon to kill a mosquito.

Don't underestimate this fat guy's lack of experience, but his record is clear.

Since joining the First Brigade, he has been investigating major cases and has successfully solved them every time.

Therefore, whenever the members of the detachment teamed up with Yu Dazhang to carry out a mission, they would consciously regard him as a tool.

You don't have to do anything, just follow. The cases are not big anyway and can be handled by one person.

It’s no wonder that Yu Dazhang felt very comfortable in recent days.

Even this time I had to work overtime without any complaints.

It’s really that the detachment has taken too good care of me.

But he still has to handle the case seriously, and he won't really regard himself as a tool.

Just when Ma Jian finished asking and was about to check the surveillance, Yu Dazhang spoke.

He looked at the nurse and asked:

"What level is this hospital?"

"Top three." The female nurse replied.

Yu Dazhang thought for a moment and continued to ask:
"Public or private?"

The nurse was stunned by this question, probably because she didn't expect the police to ask such a question.

But she still answered seriously:

“It’s privately owned.”

"Are there any Grade A hospitals in the private sector?" Yu Dazhang blinked his eyes, looking like he really didn't understand.

The nurse looked a little impatient.

"Officer, what does this have to do with the case?" she asked instead of answering.

"Of course it does matter." Yu Dazhang's face darkened and he said seriously:

"I need to understand the specific reasons why the patient's parents chose your hospital before I can proceed to the next step of the investigation."

It's easy to come up with a reason. He doesn't even need to use his brain. He can just make up an excuse that the other party can't refuse.

Although the female nurse was somewhat dissatisfied, she had no way to refute it, so she could only answer:
"It has nothing to do with whether it is private or not. As long as it meets the corresponding standards and passes the assessment and evaluation by the relevant departments, it can obtain the rating."

After she finished speaking, she saw that Yu Dazhang didn't react, so she couldn't help but add:
"Private hospitals can relieve the pressure on public hospitals, and the country has long advocated this."

She understands it quite well... If a doctor said this, Yu Dazhang would not find it strange.

After all, the professional knowledge is there.

But is this something a nurse can say?

Yu Dazhang thought about it and realized that this was not something unusual.

Just like my job as a policeman, I have some knowledge of some professional knowledge in the industry.

Even if you don't learn it on purpose, you will understand something from what you hear and see.

"One last question." Seeing that the nurse no longer wanted to pay attention to him, Yu Dazhang quickly spoke up:
"Does your pediatric department have any promotional activities for the public?"
