The newly promoted inspector general of the third post, Xing Peng, is standing in front of a floor-length mirror, wearing the inspector general's uniform very seriously.
at this time.
The sound of light footsteps came from behind.
A beautiful face then appeared in the mirror.
It is his fiancée-Fan Xiaoqian.
The soon-to-be couple looked at each other through the mirror and smiled knowingly at the same time.
Xing Peng suddenly sighed: "I always feel like I'm dreaming."
More than half a month ago, he was just an unknown person, but he was taken to a banquet, passed the assessment of the director, and was lucky enough to become an inspector.
Now he has made great achievements and has become the fastest-promoted inspector general in the history of the city's inspection bureau. He is also about to marry a gentle and beautiful wife.
For all this, Xing Peng just wants to say a pious word: Thank you, Mr. Director.
Fan Xiaoqian smiled and said: "Yes, it's like a dream."
Being able to marry the youngest inspector general in the city and a male classmate whom she had a crush on many years ago, this rich lady was extremely happy.
Fan Xiaoqian pursed her lips and smiled again, and told her a piece of news: "My father said that on the day we officially get married, he will give us an extra two hundred gold coins as a dowry."
Xing Peng just smiled and said nothing more.
The dowry originally promised by his father-in-law, Fan Ancheng, was 800 gold coins, but now it has been increased to 1,000 gold coins. He knew very well that these were the benefits brought by the position of "Inspector Chief".
By the way.
His father-in-law, a wealthy businessman, originally arranged for the two to get married two days ago. Unfortunately, due to the outbreak of the Word of the God incident, the wedding was postponed for ten days.
Fan Ancheng was worried about long nights and many dreams, so he impatiently gave away a wedding house and asked the two of them to move in in advance and get to know each other.
Although this was a bit immoral, Xing Peng accepted it half-heartedly.
After all, what man wouldn’t want to enjoy the life of his beautiful wife and lingering love every night in advance?
at this time.
Fan Xiaoqian glanced at the back of her fiancé's head and suddenly said "Hey": "Why do you have so many white hairs here?"
She took a step closer and reached out to ruffle his hair: "Let me pull it out for you."
Xing Peng said "hmm".
Fan Xiaoqian pinched her white hair between two fingers and said: "There are so many white hairs at such a young age. The work of the Inspection Office is too hard."
Xing Peng's tone was filled with emotion: "Some things have to be done by someone."
"Snapped!"
A slight sound.
Fan Xiaoqian pulled out a piece of white hair and said, "Why are you becoming more and more old-fashioned when you talk?"
Xing Peng shook his head and said with a smile: "If you are like me and have personally experienced so many tragedies in the world, you will also feel the same way."
Fan Xiaoqian did not speak, but concentrated on looking for the white hair.
Xing Peng changed the topic at the right time: "Yesterday, the Director-General held an important meeting in the Winter Garden and decided to hold a 'public memorial' for the victims of the Word of the God incident."
Fan Xiaoqian asked: "Do you want to pay homage to the deceased inspector?"
Xing Peng shook his head again: "No, pay homage to all the victims of this city."
The "all" in it is deliberately emphasized.
Fan Xiaoqian was surprised: "Including civilians who died?"
Xing Peng nodded: "Of course."
Fan Xiaoqian stopped and asked a little confused: "With so many civilians involved, should the Council of Ministers come forward?"
Xing Peng asked rhetorically: "Has the Council Hall held a public sacrifice for civilians in all these years?"
Fan Xiaoqian thought for a while and shook her head: "I don't think it has ever happened before."
Xing Peng's tone was filled with a hint of pride: "The Director-General said that our Inspection Department will do what the Council does not do. The more adversity we face, the more we cannot give up."
He paused and then said: "The Director-General said that Anhua City needs to gather unyielding strength in grief. This is the meaning of public sacrifice."
Fan Xiaoqian understood these words and couldn't help but said: "Your director will definitely become a great person in the future."
Xing Peng and Yourong Yan: "I never doubt it."
In today's Inspection Bureau, this new Inspector General has been regarded as the backbone of the Director's faction and the most dazzling rising star.
Interestingly, even though Xing Peng has never spoken to the director and only met a few times, he thinks so himself.
Fan Xiaoqian suddenly reacted: "You suddenly mentioned the public sacrifice. Is your work today related to the public sacrifice?"
Xing Peng sighed: "I was transferred to the public memorial organization team, and my job is to invite the families of the victims to attend the public memorial."
Fan Xiaoqian understood what this meant and said "Oh": "This is a very heavy task."
Xing Peng stretched out his hand to straighten his hat and repeated what he said before: "Some things have to be done by people. The director has set the best example for us."
Fan Xiaoqian looked at her fiancé distressedly, spread her arms and hugged him.
Feeling the warm body, Xing Peng murmured: "At first I felt it was an honor to put on the inspector uniform, but now I begin to feel it is a responsibility."
Fan Xiaoqian thought her fiancé was amazing and hugged him tighter.
After a while.
Fan Xiaoqian suddenly heard a heavy snort.
If she felt something, she unconsciously stretched out her hand to grab a handful, and couldn't help but laugh shyly: "You were so righteous just now, but now you have turned into a beast again, you..."
The words are not finished yet.
Fan Xiaoqian exclaimed.
Because she was hugged by a pair of strong arms, a teasing laugh came from her ears: "Xiaoqian, you hugged me too tightly!"
*
Half an hour later.
Xing Peng went through a not too intense "morning exercise", put on his uniform again and left the house.
He rode on the feathered beast presented by his father-in-law, arrived at the post first, and then met another inspector named "Ma Shouyi" to officially start today's work.
The two took a spiritual mastiff and walked into a nearby community. Based on the list of victims compiled by the outpost, they found a family.
The two inspectors stood in front of the door, both with solemn expressions on their faces.
Ma Shouyi took a deep breath and whispered: "Inspector Chief, let me knock on the door."
Xing Peng nodded lightly: "Okay."
Ma Shouyi straightened his hat, took a few steps forward, and knocked on the wooden door gently.
"Winter! Winter!"
Ma Shouyi used his voice transmission skills to send his voice into the door: "Is Ms. Liu at home? We are the inspectors of the third post."
A few seconds later.
Scattered footsteps sounded inside the door.
"Squeak!"
The door was opened.
A middle-aged lady with a haggard face and red and swollen eyes came into their eyes.
Xing Peng took the hat off first and nodded politely: "Ms. Liu, excuse me."
The middle-aged lady asked cautiously: "Are you two okay?"
Xing Peng said seriously: "Madam, the Inspection Office deeply apologizes for what happened to your respected husband."
When the middle-aged lady heard the word "respected husband", she immediately burst into tears.
On the night of the incident in Words of the Gods, her husband was on duty at the company. Unfortunately, he encountered a basilisk and was cruelly cut into pieces.
Xing Peng was a little afraid to look directly into the other person's eyes: "The Inspection Office is scheduled to hold a public memorial ceremony at Dongshan Park at ten o'clock in the morning two days later to pay homage to my husband and other victims."
The middle-aged lady shed tears.
Xing Peng thought of his colleague who had turned into a basilisk and felt that every word was extremely heavy: "Although nothing can make up for your loss, the Council will provide a pension to help your family get through this difficult period."
Time.”
Both inspectors knew that although the council promised to provide pensions to the civilian victims, it was extremely slow to raise funds.
The Director is very dissatisfied with this, and this move is to force the Council to issue the pension as soon as possible.
If the money still cannot be received before the public memorial day, then don't blame the inspection office for slapping the chief consul in the face in front of the whole city.
Xing Peng lowered his eyelids: "Madam, we sincerely invite you to attend."
Ma Shouyi quickly handed over an exquisite invitation letter.
Normally, inspectors usually look down upon civilians.
But at this time, the two of them looked groveling.
The middle-aged lady's voice was choked with sobs: "Thank you both very much. I will attend on time."
Xing Peng breathed a sigh of relief: "Madam, please forgive me."
He put on his hat and greeted again: "Please allow us to take our leave first."
The middle-aged lady was choked and speechless.
Xing Peng sighed secretly and quickly turned around and left.
After walking only a few steps, he heard loud crying behind him.
"Woo~"
Xing Peng's steps stagnated for a moment, feeling that this work was the most difficult task to complete in his life.
Ma Shouyi muttered in a low voice: "I would rather fight the basilisk."
