"I am carrying this warning sign now. I feel that this is my father staying with me in another form." As the Tomb Sweeping Day is approaching in 2024, Zhuang Yue, a police officer from Dongfang Police Station of Jinping Branch of Shantou Public Security Bureau, looked at the chest where his father had been the siren said. On April 1, Nandu reporters learned from the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Department that Zhuang Yue’s father, Zhuang Yisheng, was a police officer in the Shantou Municipal Public Security Bureau’s Special Police Detachment. In Shantou, he is well-known as the "King of Thieves", and the local people affectionately call him "Comrade Zhuang".
On December 29, 2023, Zhuang Yue inherited the alarm number from his father Zhuang Yisheng during his lifetime.
As early as 2000, Zhuang Yisheng was diagnosed with uremia. In order to facilitate dialysis, there is an instrument called a "fistula" in his left arm that connects his arteries and veins, forming bulges, as if the heart is exposed. Once injured, it may be life-threatening. His left eye was also nearly blind due to long-term erosion of urinary toxins. Out of his love and perseverance for the police profession, Zhuang Yisheng often patrols the sentries from dawn to dusk.
On November 5, 2023, Zhuang Yisheng unfortunately passed away due to long-term illness at the age of 56. On December 29, 2023, Zhuang Yue inherited the alarm number from his father Zhuang Yisheng during his lifetime.
Zhuang Yisheng’s chest was covered with medals.
Nandu previously reported that after joining the public security work in March 1994, Zhuang Yisheng has been fighting on the front line of maintaining social security. In October 2000, he suffered from chronic renal failure and other diseases. He could only rely on hemodialysis three times a week to maintain his life. The Municipal Public Security Bureau arranged for him to take sick leave.
After he fell ill, he did not forget his duties. He still walked through the streets day after day, year after year, taking care of things and catching thieves. Sometimes after hemodialysis, he was very weak, so he would let his wife ride a bicycle or motorcycle to "cruise the streets" with him. After taking medical leave, Zhuang Yisheng arrested a total of about 230 suspects of various crimes and stopped more than 510 illegal and criminal acts such as theft and robbery, earning him the reputation of "The King of Thieves".
