After leaving the shelter for the remnants of the underground black market, Gu Xiao carefully arranged the clean clothes he was wearing, then he straightened his chest and walked out of the dark underground passage.
Outside the underground passage was the central street of ASEAN City. The dazzling warm light shone on his body, making Gu Xiao feel comfortable from head to toe.
Gu Xiao put on a white peaked cap to block the bright light that made him feel a little excessive. Then he turned his head slightly and took a sneak peek at the hidden passage leading underground from the roadside.
After everything was ready, Gu Xiao should go to the ASEAN City Police Headquarters to find Director Linyao who promised to live a good life.
Gu Xiao breathed freely, the fresh air around the streets. The pure natural smell was completely different from the stagnant and even spoiled air in the underground passages. Perhaps, it could only be achieved by walking on the streets of ASEAN City every day.
Have the real feeling of living in an ASEAN city.
The wild dogs of the underground black market who are used to being in the shadows, no matter how desperate they are, they must make changes. Gu Xiao thought to himself.
About half an hour later, Gu Xiao finally found the ASEAN City Police Headquarters.
The exterior of the ASEAN City Police Headquarters has been cleaned up and is as new as the newly resurrected ASEAN City. In the floor-to-ceiling windows without any stains, there are many police officers in neat uniforms. Through the thick uniforms, they can
His well-trained body and resolute face have an invisible warning effect, making those who see him unconsciously feel a surge of admiration.
Their behavior and performance are very professional. During working hours, they are not distracted at all and do what they are responsible for accurately.
When they saw Gu Xiao pushing open the door of the police headquarters and walking in, there was no slight change in expression on their faces.
In the ASEAN City Police Headquarters, the police officer responsible for reception saw Gu Xiao walking in and immediately greeted him warmly.
He looked at Gu Xiao carefully and then said: "This is the headquarters of the ASEAN City Police Department. It is one of the most important management agencies in the ASEAN City area. This strange and respectable guest, please explain your purpose of coming. If possible,
It's best to prove your identity."
"I want to meet your boss, the director of ASEAN City Police Station, Mr. Linyao. As for my identity, I am an ordinary ASEAN City citizen, there is nothing special about me."
The police officer in charge of the reception cast a suspicious look at Gu Xiao. After Gu Xiao vaguely reported his purpose, he felt that something seemed to be wrong.
"Well, do you have any appointments or tokens from the director? Our director of the ASEAN City Police Station will be very busy recently due to work, so please come back this time. You want to see us
Director, please come at a suitable time. Of course, with us, you can use the appointment appointment service in advance, which can also avoid unnecessary trouble." The police officer who received the reception planned to directly report this suspicious person who did not understand the rules.
Character, send away.
"Without an appointment and a token... is there really no way to meet immediately? I once participated in the alliance organized by your Director Linyao against President Mo Tong. I came here today because I have something very important.
I need to convey it. Could you please be a little more accommodating?" Gu Xiao grinned and said with a forced smile.
The police officer who received him was slightly surprised by Gu Xiao's stubbornness. However, he still had no intention of letting Gu Xiao meet Linyao easily.
"Then please tell me directly what you think is very important. Let me take your place and convey it to Director Linyao."
The reception police officer was already very dissatisfied with Gu Xiao's unruly attitude.
"No, if your Director Linyao sees me arriving at the ASEAN City Police Headquarters, he will immediately agree to a temporary meeting." Gu Xiao felt anxious in his heart and argued unconsciously.
The reception police officer took out an electric baton and separated himself from Gu Xiao: "This unidentified gentleman, please stop and stop wasting my time. Please, get out of the ASEAN City Police Headquarters.
This is an important base for the ASEAN City Police, and we do not welcome unruly people here."
It felt like he no longer wanted to welcome Gu Xiao. His face that became a little gloomy was no longer a normal expression for welcoming guests.
Gu Xiao clenched his fists angrily. He wanted to rush up and punch the police officer who was receiving him. But when he thought that he had to establish a good relationship with the ASEAN City Police Headquarters, Gu Xiao gradually calmed down.
.
He bowed deeply, lowered his head and said, "Sorry, I got a little excited. I came directly without any preparation and wasted your time. I'm really sorry."
The reception police officer snorted lightly, raised his head, and said arrogantly: "Since you all know that you have done something wrong, don't be so nagging and hurry up and leave the ASEAN City Police Headquarters. Don't delay our precious members of the ASEAN City Police Department.
Reception hours.”
Gu Xiao thought to himself: That's right, if there is no identity that can pass normal authentication. Really, no matter where you are, you are destined to not be taken seriously.
"...Then I'll take my leave." Gu Xiao turned around and prepared to leave temporarily.
"Long time no see, Mr. Gu Xiao. Have you encountered any trouble?" A familiar voice said hello to Gu Xiao.
Gu Xiao turned his head and saw an unexpected person.
Director Linyao, whom he wanted to meet, was standing about five meters away from him.
"Director Linyao, I finally see you." Looking at Director Linyao not far away, Gu Xiao felt extremely excited.
Director Linyao said casually: "Hey, don't say such strange things. If there is anything important, just come to my private office and talk about it. I have already finished it, and there happened to be a lot of tasks planned for this morning.
Free time.”
"By the way, there's no need to be so formal. This is just a service center for those who want to ask us to handle cases. It's not a crime scene that needs to be kept serious."
"Well, okay." Gu Xiao didn't know what was going on, and followed Director Linyao in a daze into the depths of the ASEAN City Police Department headquarters.
The police officer who received him was almost shocked. He didn't expect that a suspicious person he unintentionally stopped was actually an acquaintance of Director Linyao. If he had gone too far when he treated Gu Xiao just now, his
The job may not be guaranteed. Director Linyao has full power to achieve this simple goal.
It seems that I will not be able to drive people away so easily in the future. The police officer who received him thought to himself.
…
On the other side, under the guidance of Director Linyao, Gu Xiao successfully arrived at the Director's office at the ASEAN City Police Headquarters.
Linyao smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite. Please find a place and sit wherever you like, Mr. Gu Xiao."
"Ah, I understand." Gu Xiao sat down on the sofa where guests were waiting with some anxiety.
Even in the ASEAN City Police Headquarters, Linyao didn't have the airs that Gu Xiao imagined.
"It can be seen that Mr. Gu Xiao is very impetuous. Is there something unspeakable that you want to tell me?" Lin Yao said half-jokingly.
"...Uh, no, it's not. How should I put it? I came here specially this time. I really have something to ask Director Linyao."
Since he didn't know Director Linyao's thoughts, Gu Xiao didn't know the scale of his interactions with Director Linyao and what range he should control.
Gu Xiao thought to himself that he wanted to achieve his goal of gaining social status as a remnant of the underground black market, Stray Dogs. Now, should he be more active in talking to Director Linyao? He couldn't think about it anymore.
Gu Xiao took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Director Linyao, I came here this time because of the promise you made to the remnants of our underground black market, Director Linyao, when we organized the building in the Lingying Society.
"
After saying these words, Gu Xiao held his breath. The respected director Linyao would not just use the excuse of "forgot" to excuse him. Although if he does this, I, who is on the passive side, will also take advantage of him.
No way.
"I'm sorry. Due to the recent aftermath work, I almost forgot about this matter. We at the ASEAN City Police Headquarters can guarantee that we will not pursue the things that the remnants of the underground black market have done in the past. As for your lives,
If you have any questions, I can try to apply for a temporary ASEAN City resident certificate for you. If you want to upgrade to a permanent residence certificate, you will need to conduct an actual inspection for a few years, and you will be upgraded based on your performance."
"For other aspects of social welfare, I will also use my friendship to ask Mayor Qianyu of ASEAN City to handle it for you. By the way, it will improve your usual chaotic life. However, remember not to dig new underground passages randomly.
. Those undeveloped underground passage areas will one day be developed, and if they are held accountable, it will be troublesome."
Hearing Director Linyao fully express the promise he made to them a few weeks ago, Gu Xiao clenched his hands with great excitement.
Director Linyao actually still remembers the promise he made to our underground black market wild dogs. Obviously, the underground black market in the past also caused a lot of trouble for the ASEAN City Police Headquarters.
Linyao spotted Gu Xiao with dull eyes and asked with concern: "Mr. Gu Xiao, what's wrong with you? Did you hear what I just said?"
Hearing Linyao's cry, Gu Xiao was stunned for a moment, and finally reacted, saying quickly: "Ahem, I'm fine, I'm fine. Director Linyao, it's just that what you said just now made me a little too touched. I didn't expect it.
Director Linyao is actually able to keep his promise so much and is willing to give people like us a chance to get a new life."
