1551,sense of oppression(1/2)
7pm.
A temporary stage has been set up on the playground inside the police station. In front of the stage is a bonfire. Many family members of Filipino police officers and police treasurers have already dressed in national costumes and danced to the music.
The surrounding police officers sat in a circle and cooperated to act as an atmosphere group.
The program is real, the enthusiasm for participating in the activities is also real, and all the police officers have no idea what their mission tonight is.
However, everyone was informed that they were not allowed to drink or overeat, and they were required to follow the orders of their superiors at all times.
Just behind the police station, police cars of various types are ready. All police cars are equipped with police equipment. As long as they pedal, they can set off immediately.
Gu Chen and members of Gao Lin's action team were all lying at the window of the conference room, admiring the performance from a high position.
On the other side, Arlene, a Philippine police officer who serves as the liaison officer, sat next to Gu Chen and introduced the features of tonight's program.
This is the last moment for everyone to relax before action.
Gu Chen was worried about Lu Weiwei's safety. Due to the emergency, Gu Chen could not directly contact Allen, so he knew nothing about the situation of the team members within the fraud group.
Seeing that Gu Chen was always absent-minded, Arlin smiled and asked him: "Gu Chen, is the show not good?"
"No." Gu Chen shook his head in denial.
"Is that because we didn't provide good hospitality?" Arlene asked again.
Gu Chen still shook his head in denial: "No."
Arlene suddenly looked confused.
It's not this, it's not that, it feels like Gu Chen is hiding something on his mind.
"Then you want a girlfriend?" Arlene also said casually.
But this time, Gu Chen turned around and seemed to be hit hard by this question.
"Well, it seems I guessed it right." Seeing Gu Chen's overreaction, Arlin also grinned: "She must be beautiful, right?"
"Can we change the topic?" Feeling that Arlene was a gossip, Gu Chen felt a little shy and quickly changed the topic.
But at this moment, Arlene felt a little sad. She could only shrug and pretended not to care: "A police officer as good as you, young and a police officer leader, should be quite popular among girls."
"What do you want to say?" Gu Chen turned to look at Arlin.
Arlene looked at the sky with a wry smile, pointed at the moon and joked: "I want to say that the moonlight tonight is beautiful, but I don't seem to be in the mood to appreciate it."
"Why?" Gu Chen followed Arlin's gaze and looked at the sky, feeling that the moonlight was just like that.
Arlin rolled her eyes and felt that Gu Chen was indeed a piece of wood. It was a bit embarrassing for Gu Chen to communicate with him using this kind of joke.
Arlene shook her head and sighed.
Gu Chen felt that Arlin was in a bad mood, so he changed the subject and asked about tonight's operation: "By the way, Arlin, can the informants outside the police station be handled tonight?"
"It can be done." Arlene nodded silently and said truthfully: "My uncle has long been under plainclothes surveillance. The informant of the fraud group outside our police station is a nearby villager."
"He has been squatting near our police station for several days. We have everything under control."
"When we wait for the operation, our plainclothes officers will control him, and the informants from other police stations are also within our control. Don't worry, the operation... will not be a problem."
"What about the reinforcements from the police academy?" Gu Chen asked again.
Arlene grinned: "You don't have to worry about this. Who is my uncle? He can handle the coordination of these tasks, so don't worry."
"Okay." Gu Chen nodded silently and said, "The last question is, can you take me with you in this operation?"
"Well……"
Arlin glanced at Gu Chen, thought for a moment, and suddenly said in a strange tone: "Originally, in principle, my uncle would not allow your Chinese action team to participate. After all, you have no law enforcement rights here. If you provide us with intelligence, you have already dealt with us."
It’s a great contribution.”
"But I think you, Gu Chen, must be very aware of these internal situations. After all, I heard that you were once an undercover agent, so I told my uncle."
"What did you say to your uncle?" Gu Chen asked.
"I said..." Arlene thought for a moment and immediately started making up random things: "I said the China Action Team can stay in the conference room and wait for action news, but Gu Chen can't."
"Gu Chen is very familiar with this fraud building. With Gu Chen here, he can act like a fish in water."
She secretly glanced at Gu Chen and saw that Gu Chen was staring at her seriously. Arlin also said with a smile: "My uncle said, no, for the safety of the Chinese action team, they must stay at the police station."
"When I heard this, Is this still a personnel matter? They helped you get information, and now you just ignore them? Is this the way to treat guests?"
Arlene, with her hands on her hips and her body in drama, immediately simulated a conversation with her uncle in front of the air.
"I said uncle, you can't be like this. If you don't let Gu Chen participate, then I won't agree."
Turning to the other side, Arlin imitated Team Leader Shi and said, "My uncle said, you don't agree? What's your relationship with Gu Chen? Does Gu Chen need your permission to go?"
Turning her body to the other side again, Arlene also crossed her arms and her acting skills exploded: "I said this is not a matter of relationship or not. Officer Gu came all the way from China to our land to help us coordinate and handle the case."
"They contribute the most and face the most dangers. But now when we close the net, we put them aside. How can we let them go back?"
"You said Team Leader Shi is petty and jointly handles the case. Aren't you trying to take the lead?"
"Even if uncle gets promoted and becomes a director or a higher-ranking official because of this case in the future, that selfish nickname will probably stick with you for the rest of your life."
After a pause, seeing Gu Chen suppressing a smile, Arlin suddenly became more energetic and gestured to the air: "My uncle immediately panicked when he heard this, and said Arlin, what you said seems to make sense."
"Say, otherwise I will let Gu Chen follow you just for your sake, and you have to be responsible for protecting him."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "That means, Team Leader Shi agreed?" After hearing Arlin's story, Gu Chen was overjoyed.
After all, according to the principle, the Chinese operation team can stay at the police station and coordinate and command with Team Leader Shi, but as for on-site operations, the Philippine police are fully responsible.
In principle, the Chinese police are not responsible for this arrest operation.
But if you can participate in the action, it will be a great honor.
Seeing that Gu Chen was now happy, Arlin also smiled and said: "That's right, so after all my efforts, the fat man finally agreed to my request and agreed to let you follow me in tonight's operation."
"That's great." Feeling that he finally got his wish, Gu Chen also said gratefully: "Thank you so much. It seems that you are quite useful in front of your uncle."
"Isn't that right? That fat man dotes on me and trusts me very much." Arlin was praised by Gu Chen, and she felt happy in her heart.
But Gu Chen had a question mark.
I thought that this fat Team Leader Shi seemed to be very talkative and wasn't as selfish as Arlene said?
But this is not an issue that Gu Chen needs to consider.
After all, the fact that he can now set off with the team is a good result in itself.
The time soon came to 7:10.
Gao Lin, who was lying by the window watching the dance, immediately withdrew his gaze and reminded: "It's almost time. We should go to the conference room to coordinate tonight's actions with Team Leader Shi."
"I'll take you there." Seeing this, Arlene quickly turned around and walked towards the door.
This time Arlene brought everyone to a conference room with many instruments and equipment, which was the command center of this operation.
Team Leader Shi is currently mobilizing his troops and instructing the plainclothes officers around the police station to take action to control the informants planted by the fraud group.
When Gao Lin and others came in, Team Leader Shi put down the phone and breathed a long sigh of relief: "Team Leader Gao, our operation will start immediately. Please take a seat."
"Thank you." Gao Lin looked behind him and asked everyone to find a seat and keep quiet.
Gao Lin asked Team Leader Shi: "This spy outside the police station..."
"It was solved just now." Team Leader Shi said with a smile.
"How long will it take for you to take action?" Gao Lin asked again.
Team leader Shi looked down at his watch and said, "In five minutes, I will instruct all the main leaders involved in the operation to take the team to the backyard, and everyone will pedal and set off immediately."
"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news." Seeing that Team Leader Shi had completed the arrangements, Gao Lin was immediately satisfied.
Just waiting to sit in the command center and watch the Philippine police's operational arrangements.
At this moment, Arlene came over and whispered to Team Leader Shi. Team Leader Shi nodded silently, indicating that Arlene could go out first.
Arlin came to Gu Chen in a strange way, grabbed Gu Chen's arm and pulled him out.
I felt like I was clearly authorized to participate in the operation, so why did Arlene make me look like a thief?
In the passage, Gu Chen also asked curiously: "Are you ready to leave?"
"Yes." Holding Gu Chen's arm, Arlin also quickened her pace.
Gu Chenze asked again: "Then I should say hello to Team Leader Gao and Team Leader Shi, right?"
"No need to bother, just follow me." Arlin didn't care about this.
Gu Chen was immediately confused.
Before participating in an action, it is the most basic courtesy to say hello to the leader.
As a result, I was dragged along all the way by Arlene without even a chance to say hello, which felt a bit presumptuous.
But thinking that the action was about to begin, he didn't want to get stuck in trivial matters, so he followed Arlene to the backyard.
At this moment, Gao Lin, who was anxiously waiting for the operation to begin in the command center, also crossed his arms and tried to calm down.
A war is imminent, especially this important arrest operation. Although the Chinese police action team does not need to come forward, it is very painful to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai and wait quietly.
