It was a new day at work, and Chen Jie was a little uncomfortable not seeing Ji Chengling.

"Ji Chengling returned to the city bureau?"

Lao Zeng threw the old documents to her and said, "He was originally from the city bureau. Once the case is concluded, of course he will go back and resume his duties."

Chen Jie pinched her nose and said, "I thought the city bureau wanted him to replace our boss."

Even Chen Jie could see the purpose of the municipal bureau in sending Ji Chengling to the branch, which showed that the municipal bureau was so grand that it didn't even bother with appearances.

Indirectly, it also shows how disgusting Li Zan is as the captain.

"That's right," Chen Jie suddenly realized and asked immediately: "Where is the boss?"

Lao Zeng: "He might be strolling in the park before work time."

Dafu Park is located between Chunbulao Community and Dongcheng District Public Security Bureau.

Half past seven in the morning.

On a park bench, Li Zan opened the morning newspaper and read the latest news. There was a radio next to him playing the news of the same period.

The news broadcast ended for a while and then switched to Cantonese opera. The unique Cantonese rhyme and the loud opera sounds of old men and old ladies singing under the banyan tree in the park intertwined with each other, forming the most peaceful and harmonious morning in winter.

Residents of Chunbulao Community were jogging in the park in the morning. When they met Li Zan, they stopped and said hello: "Captain Li, good morning."

Li Zan raised his head: "Good morning."

"Thank you very much. The small convenience store on the street closed down two days ago and was sublet. I heard that it was selling counterfeit cigarettes and alcohol and was found out. It really can't be opened. This kind of shop owner is a shady person. He even rented out mobile phones to people in the past.

Children are playing games!" The resident was indignant: "It is causing harm to the next generation and it deserves to be closed down!"

Li Zan: “Have your children’s grades improved?”

"Yes!" The resident, who is also a parent, said proudly: "It passed!"

——He is also a tolerant parent.

The resident waved his hand: "Captain Li, you continue to read the newspaper. I will buy breakfast first. My wife and children are waiting at home."

Li Zan smiled, waved and continued reading the newspaper and listening to the news on the radio.

It was almost eight o'clock before he got up and walked slowly towards the branch office.

Xinzhou City Bureau Criminal Investigation Detachment.

Ji Chengling came to the city bureau half an hour early to report. Colleagues came over to express their condolences: "You did a good job this time.", "Is there anyone at the Dongcheng Branch who is holding you back?", "Do you have a temper, endurance, IQ and insight?

They all feel improved.”

...There are many different opinions, and they basically believe that the Dongcheng District Bureau is a laggard.

Ji Chengling explained: "Dongcheng Branch did not hold back. Each of them is an experienced criminal policeman. Some of the branch's configuration is not good, but this is more proof of their professionalism. I learned a lot there, they are... very powerful."

Colleagues didn’t believe it. Someone had come into contact with the branch for some cases before and was almost killed by their procrastination and slow pace.

In addition, the reputation of "all employees providing for the elderly" has given Dongcheng Branch the image of "old, weak and disabled" and "waste".

Even though the Dongcheng District Bureau was involved in the corpse dismemberment case and the huge smuggling case at the seaport, they were both regarded as accidents by default.

When Ji Chengling was about to say more, someone came over and shouted: "Ji Chengling, the captain calls you over."

"I'll go right away."

Ji Chengling escaped from being surrounded by colleagues and went to the captain's office. When he opened it, he found that not only the captain of the criminal investigation detachment was sitting inside, but also the director and deputy director of the municipal bureau.

His heart tightened, he raised his head and straightened his chest and immediately saluted: "Sun Ju, Ji Ju, Xing Captain, good morning!"

Director Sun was drinking the wholesale anti-hypertensive tea. Hearing this, he held up the lid of the tea cup, spat out the tea stems in his mouth and said, "Young man, don't be too rigid. Relax, take it easy. Come on, come on." He put down the tea cup. He raised his head, his face full of wrinkles, and said kindly and harmlessly: "Xiao Ji, do you know why I asked you to come here?"

Ji Chengling looked hesitantly at the expressionless deputy bureau and team leader Xing, and then said after thinking about it: "You want to ask about the role of the Dongcheng Branch in the 12.08 corpse dismemberment case?"

"This kid is really smart." Director Sun said, "Then tell me what you think of the branch."

Ji Chengling: "Very good."

Director Sun: "Be more specific. What's a good idea?"

Ji Chengling: "Everyone in the branch is optimistic and has a good personality. They are actually very neat and diligent in doing things. If a case occurs, they will work overtime and will not get off work until the work is completed. The veteran criminal policemen in the branch team are very experienced. Rich and cooperative. They are all excellent and professional criminal police officers!"

"In this case," Bureau Sun thought for a while and then directly called out: "What about Li Zan?"

As soon as he heard the name Li Zan, Ji Chengling immediately became serious. After thinking for a while, he carefully selected his words: "He is outstanding, very outstanding! I have met many experienced criminal police officers who have been trained through continuous learning and decades of employment." With courage, eyesight and keen professional insight, they can extract tiny bits of useful clues from innumerable fragments of information. They are the treasures of the criminal investigation world, the talents of the National Criminal Police Team, and Li Zan——"

"He is no less than an excellent old detective."

Director Sun: "The evaluation is very high."

Deputy Director Ji turned his head slightly and said, "It shows that the ability is still there and has not declined."

Director Sun also turned his head and said in a low voice: "You are so trouble-making. I am about to retire, why are you still causing trouble for me?"

Deputy Bureau Ji: "It's wrong to let you lose face."

Bureau Sun: "It's not a matter of face, and I'm not a grudge-bearing person." He sighed heavily, turned around and asked Ji Chengling kindly: "Xiao Ji, do you want to go to the branch?"

Ji Chengling was stunned: "You want to transfer me to the branch? Dongcheng branch?"

Director Sun: "Whether you go or not is up to you."

Ji Chengling thought of Lao Zeng, Chen Jie, Wang Yuan and others from the Dongcheng Branch, and most importantly, Li Zan.

He discovered that Li Zan seemed to have no ambitions and was just waiting to die, but in fact he united the lazy and floating hearts of the entire branch. With his unique personal style and outstanding abilities, he led the elderly, weak, sick and disabled people known as the "nursing home" Criminal Investigation Division of the Branch.

He also didn't understand why the Dongcheng District branch, which was not inferior to other branches, had such a bad reputation outside, and he didn't understand why Li Zan was unknown in the municipal bureau.

He is obviously very good.

Ji Chengling became very curious about the Dongcheng District Bureau, and he wanted to know the reason.

"I'll go." He said firmly, "I want to go to the Dongcheng District Branch!"

Director Sun: "Okay, choose a good day and go there. Today and tomorrow are both good days."

Ji Chengling: I can feel the impatience in my tone.

Director Sun was so happy that he took a big sip of anti-hypertensive tea, and then smiled even more kindly: "Xiao Ji, your grades were very good in school, but you encountered a big case during your internship. When you become a full-time employee, you can work hard for another one or two years to increase your resume. You can win the position of captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Dongcheng District Branch!"

Ji Chengling: "..."

Bureau Sun...

Does he really not hold grudges?

Deputy Bureau Ji, who was familiar with Bureau Sun's temperament, drank tea with Captain Xing and continued to remain silent.

..

The files and documents for Ji Chengling's transfer to the Dongcheng Branch were quickly completed, allowing everyone in the branch to see the municipal bureau's efficient work efficiency.

As for the list of branch configuration changes described by Chen Jie, I submitted it to the top, but it took about ten days for a reply to arrive.

Considering that the Dongcheng District Bureau was so poor that it made people cry, the superiors kindly approved the replacement of air conditioners and two new cars.

"At least we don't have to repair the air conditioner this year. Every time I worry that the master will fall ill in the middle of the repair, and the reputation of the branch will be even worse."

"The new car is the latest off-road model. It can be used in outdoor areas, mountains and long distances. It has high performance. And with two cars, it will be faster to dispatch police in the future."

"I can't wait to play it...when will it be there?"

"A week later."

"Nothing else? Blade high-capacity server?"

Wang Yuan was very frustrated.

Lao Zeng said: "The superiors are specifically guarding against you, and the first rule is to deny changing the server."

Wang Yuanjuan was sent to the Dongcheng District Bureau because he repeatedly crossed the border using the Internet. Otherwise, given his ability, he should have been able to join the technical reconnaissance team of the Municipal Bureau.

Zhong Xueru: "The equipment in my forensic office must be replaced. The constant-temperature incubator has not been replaced for several years."

Lao Zeng: "The second veto is the request of your forensic office."

Zhong Xueru: "You must give me an explanation."

Lao Zeng: “Too expensive.”

Zhong Xueru: “…”

The reason is very strong.

Although the branch office, which was used to poverty, did not have everything going as planned, they were still very happy after getting air conditioners and new cars.

After all, if there is one, there are two. Luxurious configurations comparable to the city bureau will one day arrive!

Li Zan opened the door and came in. While answering the phone, he motioned to others to ignore him, went straight into the office and closed the door.

"Mom, I understand. I'll go back in a few days, eh? My old sister's son? He will come as soon as he comes. Your welcome is equivalent to my welcome. I will find him a hotel when he arrives - no, my house is

Single room.”

"Let's talk about it then, okay?"

"Okay. We'll talk about it when we arrive. We're busy here, so hang up first."
