Chapter 4 Patrol(1/2)
"Hey hey hey! Why are you again?" Chen Jin stopped the uninvited guest in anger, and looked majestic with a stern face.
Sheng Yao smiled silly, "Master, are you on duty here today?"
"Don't be careless. I told you yesterday, the day before yesterday that this is a private cemetery and you can't come in casually. You have to leave the cemetery and walk towards the north gate." Chen Jin stopped in front of Sheng Yao, without retreating.
"But aren't these all the areas of Changshou Garden? From there, no one guards the gate. There is no door between these two cemeteries." Sheng Yao argued with reason, but his eyes were a little floating. He glanced behind Chen Jin from time to time, "Why can't you leave here?"
"You also know that this is another cemetery. What are you wandering around in the cemetery? Don't look around, there is nothing good here." Chen Jin changed his statement, "You must be respectful to the deceased, be more considerate of the family of the deceased, and do not disturb others."
Sheng Yao was not discouraged, nor did he have a conflict with Chen Jin. He agreed obediently and acted like a good student.
Chen Jin was not so easy to be fooled, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
"No, right?" Sheng Yao was surprised.
"I'm afraid you'll get lost. The road here is not horizontal and vertical, and there is no sign. It's different from the tomb area there." Chen Jin said without saying a word, pushing Sheng Yao to the traditional tomb area.
Sheng Yao did not resist, and was taken honestly by Chen Jin, turned the quiet stone road hidden by green trees and returned to the traditional tomb area.
Chen Jin stood at the intersection of the small road, like a door god.
It was not until Sheng Yao's figure mingled into the crowd of sojourning and could no longer see that Chen Jin relaxed. The beer belly of the middle-aged man bounced out, and under the uniform, his serious face changed to an ordinary lazy look.
Chen Jin did not really relax. He remembered this and told several colleagues when he went back to the staff cafeteria to have dinner in the evening. He wanted to remind his colleagues to pay attention, but he was interrupted as soon as he described Sheng Yao's appearance.
"I've seen that young man!" Xiao Jin, who was guarding the door, said in a speechless manner, "He came every morning, just when the door opened. It's been several days... It started on the Qingming Festival. I noticed him especially on the Qingming Festival. Among the group of old men and aunts, he was the only young man. When he came in from the door, he didn't know where to go. I was waiting for him to come and ask for directions, but he was confused and followed the crowd in."
Chen Jin knocked the bowl with chopsticks, "I just said he had a problem! How could anyone come to visit the grave every day!"
The Qingming Festival is only one day, and the holiday is only three days. The peak is usually the three or four days of the holiday, but the entire Qingming Festival memorial service will last for two weeks. Those retired people who have free time will come to the cemetery to pay homage to the cemetery one after another during the March and April. Office workers and family-based souvenirs appear on holidays.
Sheng Yao is a young man, maybe an office worker or a college student. No matter which one is, he should not report to the cemetery on weekdays. Even those retired old men and women don’t come to visit the grave every day.
Lao Xu, who was helping in the parking lot, picked up a chopstick dish slowly, and then said, "Click the surveillance camera out and see, everyone will write down that face. Pay attention when you go to work tomorrow."
As soon as he said this, the few people from the security department rushed to have a meal.
Only Xiao Wu lowered his head and continued his absent-minded way to pick rice grains. When all his colleagues finished eating, they all looked at him, but he had not yet reacted.
Xiao Jin slapped Xiao Wu on the shoulder, which scared Xiao Wu to tremble his hands and shook his hands.
Fortunately, the rice cooked in the staff cafeteria is always rotten and sticky, so the rice bowls thrown out did not sprinkle most of the rice bowls inside.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Jin was startled by Xiao Wu's reaction.
Xiao Wu looked confused, and there were two clear dark circles on his raised face.
He is a newcomer who has just been recruited after the Chinese New Year this year. He has not yet passed his internship and has not become familiar with his colleagues. These days, he has been exhausted to cope with his first Qingming Festival. He usually speaks very little and is also depressed, like paper ash that is about to burn out in the large iron bucket in the park.
Lao Xu said, "Xiao Wu, you have worked hard these days. Don't work so hard tomorrow. If it really doesn't work, just go to the guard room to rest."
Two colleagues patrolling traditional cemetery and other areas with Xiao Wu immediately agreed and took good care of Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu forced a smile and thanked everyone. He stopped eating the remaining half bowl of rice and cleaned up the dishes with everyone.
"Persis two more days, the Qingming Festival will be over, and then it will be relaxed." Chen Jin hooked Xiao Wu's shoulder, "You can patrol the Changshou District with me tomorrow. It's more comfortable there. There are too many people in the traditional tomb area and it's smoky. You may not be used to it in the first year. Have you seen this kind of burning paper? Now we are just here to burn paper. It turns out that the year begins, we will also ban it."
Xiao Wu thanked him gratefully.
Chen Jin said again: "It may not be peaceful if this happens this year. When you arrive at Changshou Cemetery, you still have to cheer up and guard against that guy commits illegal crimes and commits damage."
Since the establishment of Changshou Garden, there have been no vicious incidents, but there have been unlucky people among their peers, including tombstones being destroyed, urns stolen, and extorting the families of the deceased...
In modern society where surveillance is everywhere, the little thieves were of course brought to justice soon. However, for cemetery institutions that have omitted supervision, the matter is not just about catching the thief. Angry relatives and aftermath are enough to give them a drink.
It turned out that the guard Lao Xu of Changshou Garden was the only one who expanded the Changshou Tomb area, opened the west gate, and built an extra parking lot, the guard also expanded the recruitment and added Chen Jin. At first, they were only responsible for the north gate and the two large iron gates of the west gate. The inside of the tomb area was all under the supervision of several cleaning staff, and there was no need for patrol.
Six years ago, the Security Department was officially established, and the department recruited new people every year. The speed of enrollment expansion and the frequency of personnel flow were far greater than that of several other departments in Changshou Park. Even so, at the peak of Qingming Festival and the winter solstice, they still needed colleagues from other departments to volunteer to help deal with the huge abortions in the park. In the Security Department, the monitoring equipment alone accounted for the majority of the expenditure in the park. If something went wrong, the director would definitely make them unable to afford it.
People from the security department rushed to the monitoring room from the cafeteria.
The monitoring room is very close to the employee canteen. The employee dormitory is above the canteen. You can directly see the small room in the monitoring room from the dormitory window. The small room adjacent to the monitoring room is a guard room, which is usually regarded as the office of their security department and is used in the lounge. When you are busy, it is borrowed as a utility room by other departments.
Xiao Jin was responsible for monitoring and monitoring in the department. He skillfully called out the surveillance video of the north gate of the cemetery, adjusted the time for two times, and let everyone see Sheng Yao who appeared at the entrance of the cemetery early in the morning.
"Ah! It's this person!" The one who cried out first was neither Chen Jin nor Xiao Jin, but Xiao Wu, who had been out of shape.
Xiao Wu showed excitement in front of his colleague for the first time, and the sound he shouted was out of tune.
"Have you seen it?" Chen Jin asked, "He is wandering around in the traditional cemetery?"
Xiao Wu shook his head, his excitement faded away, and a look of panic appeared.
"He... this person... he..." Xiao Wu stuttered and didn't say a complete sentence for a long time.
Xiao Jin was impatient, “What’s wrong with him?
Xiao Wu was frightened by Xiao Jin and blurted out: "He talked to the tombstone!"
Everyone looked at each other.
Xiao Jin laughed, "What's the matter? Have you never seen anyone talking to the tombstone? So many people who visited the tombstone this day were talking to the tombstone."
"That's talking to the deceased family." Old Xu corrected Xiao Jin's statement and looked at Xiao Wu, "You will know after working for a long time. This is how the grave sweeping is. Tell the deceased family how the family is doing this year, so that they don't worry, and ask them if they are doing well below... This is a way to comfort themselves. If they talk like this, they will feel more comfortable."
Xiao Wu shook his head repeatedly, "No, not that! He is talking to the tombstone!" He emphasized the word "dialogue", "There are people coming and going, and there are people talking and laughing... I sit there every day... in the eleventh row, or the thirteenth row."
Xiao Wu hadn't looked at the number of the row of tombstones carefully. He didn't dare to look at Sheng Yao carefully.
"The first day was the day of Qingming Festival, and he scared a lot of people." Xiao Wu added, "He stood there, saying something, and then saying something, and his expression kept changing. It was really... it seemed that there was really someone next to him..." Xiao Wu said, trembling.
The strange scene naturally attracted the attention of some people. Some people were curious, some people pity, and some people dragged Xiao Wu, who was patrolling the place and asked him to take care of it.
Xiao Wu took a look from afar and saw Sheng Yao performing in the tombstone like a professional one-man actor. He was slightly raised with one hand, as if he was grabbing someone he could not see. He was so scared that he dared not move, and his mind was full of news about murder.
Fortunately, an enthusiastic aunt in the crowd took the initiative to step forward and pulled Sheng Yao away. The onlookers dispersed.
Xiao Wu heard the dispersed people talking. They were all doubting that the young man with such a good appearance had some problems with his brain.
That day, Xiao Wu thought so too.
But after that...
"...He was also there the next day, talking there... he would tilt his head and look around him, as if there was someone there, he was listening, listening to her..." Xiao Wu's body shivered.
"Isn't this a lunatic?" Xiao Jin disagreed.
Chen Jin recalled the contact with Sheng Yao over the past two days and was a little hesitant.
Cold sweat oozed from Xiao Wu's forehead, and his eyes widened were covered with blood, "I...I..." He "me" for a long time, without any further information, and his body tremble became more and more obvious.
"Hi, what's there to be afraid of?" Xiao Jin looked at Xiao Wu, was a little surprised, and turned his head to point at the surveillance screen.
On the screen, Sheng Yao, who was holding a flower and greeting Xiao Jin with a friendly look, looked so normal.
Xiao Jin said, "Look, aren't you good when you don't get sick? He just talks to himself. You don't know that some crazy people, martial arts madman, are that scary."
"You will know after working for a long time." Old Xu threw out his catchphrase again, "There are often such people. When rape flowers bloom, they will get sick. Those who come to our cemetery are also pitiful."
Lao Xu said again: "When you see such a person, you should say hello to us, and you should say hello to the cleaning side."
Chen Jin continued Lao Xu's words: "If he just has a broken brain, then let's watch more and don't let him destroy things. Just be afraid, he has a very good brain. I think he always wants to run to the Changshou District these days, is he using a bad mind? This is self-talking and so on... is he acting on purpose?"
"It's not impossible. Nowadays, criminals all commit crimes with high IQ and are very cunning. They will make a mental illness certificate to get rid of the crime." Old Xu nodded seriously.
Others agreed.
Only Xiao Wu lowered his head, as if he was ashamed of his timid and incompetent ruthlessness just now.
As soon as Lao Xu and Chen Jin decided to strengthen patrols. Tonight, they checked the tombstones in the park and the fences outside the park together.
"The monitoring also needs to be checked, but there are no cameras blocked. Especially in the Changshou Tomb area, where the sycamore trees, apricot trees, peach trees... there are so many messy trees that have not been pruned for a year, so don't block the camera. What kind of memory is there..." Chen Jin asked Xiao Jin, "Is the memory enough? Don't take pictures of things, it's useless to save it."
"I'll check it out now."
Chen Jin said: "When you check the surveillance, you can see what he is doing every day when he comes to our cemetery. He has to eat and go to the toilet when he acts in the traditional cemetery, right? You can always see something."
Xiao Jintou responded without looking back, giving everyone a back of their heads, and was already busy on the operating table.
Xiao Jin was so resolute and others followed suit and worked hard. Even Xiao Wu was taken by Chen Jin to inspect the fence.
Xiao Jin, who was the first to be motivated, was also the first to be depressed.
He is in charge of surveillance in the security department, but in fact he can only operate the switches and make maintenance calls. He has not received professional training and cannot consciously exercise his monitoring and monitoring ability.
Sheng Yao entered the thirteen rows of tombstones in the traditional tombs. Because of the camera location, Xiao Jin could not see what he did after entering that row of tombstones.
Xiao Jin tried to adjust the direction of the camera so that Sheng Yao would come again tomorrow and he should be able to see what he was doing.
Xiao Jin is very satisfied with his wit.
Then, he was confused by the surveillance screen that flocked to the crowd to worship, and could no longer find Sheng Yao. The scene of people coming and going on the surveillance screen made him sleepy and forced himself to cheer up, but he had no results.
...
The picture on the screen of the imaging tube is constantly enlarged, just like a camera pulling closer, finding Sheng Yao, who is hiding in the crowd and tombstones.
In the low resolution picture, you can see the smile on Sheng Yao's face. Beside him was Bai Xiao in a black coat. The two of them sat shoulder to shoulder on the ground, leaning against the tombstone, facing the tombstone, and talking a little strangely and happily.
Sounds coming from outside the screen:
"You've been on the school football team before?"
"Yes. Our best result is the second prize in the municipal competition of junior high school. That time, the junior high school football league jointly organized by the Sports Bureau and the Education Bureau. The competition system is similar to that of the professional league. We don't have to go when drawing lots. The organizer randomly arranged it with a computer, and then directly sent the schedule to the school. When the final award was judged, it was also very funny. He went to the Cultural Palace to receive the award certificate, and he did not rank first, second and third prizes, but ranked first, second and third prizes."
