Being a police officer often means feeling sympathy for killers.
Lu Chuan has been a police officer for only a short time and hasn't encountered many such cases, but Liu Guodong, Yang Sen, and Old Bai have been detectives for twenty or thirty years and have come across many such cases.
Take, for example, the migrant worker who caused a bloodbath at the Mountain Water Court sales office, named Wang Youde.
Wang Youde left the countryside at 18 and worked in Haizhou City for over 30 years.
From a young man full of dreams and vigor, he became an over-50-year-old migrant worker.
This "old man" isn't an exaggeration but a description, as 50-something Wang Youde looked older than the 70-year-old retirees in the city.
His face was blackened, with wrinkles like those carved in marble, and the calluses on his palms piled layer upon layer like millefeuille in a bakery.
