Shen Jian had not expected Lan Jiang to give him the title of acting chief officer.
"Why?" Shen Jian asked.
"Our police force is severely lacking. We need to train a new batch of people." You've been doing very well recently, so I've decided to let you temporarily act as Chief Jiang.”
"What about Old Jiang?" Shen Jian asked.”
"Old Jiang is a good-for-nothing. Don't worry about him." Yesterday, there was a big fight between East Star and Yiqun Gang. We sent Old Jiang to lead a team to calm down, but he left his brothers there and fled, causing several brothers to be injured. When Tiger Lei heard about it, he sent Old Jiang to guard the border of Lamma Island in a fit of anger. Now that Old Jiang's position is empty, you can try.”
Shen Jian had been promoted again.
As expected, opportunities appeared in troubled times.
"Originally, it's against the rules to promote you like this. Our brothers won't be happy either." "But I really have no choice. The four great clans are at war, and the matter is getting bigger and bigger. If you smash his casino, he will blow up your home. They're already fighting on the streets with AKs. Our police force isn't enough to suppress them. At this critical juncture, those gangsters in the school were also not easy to worry about. They caused two murders for me in one day.”
"What happened this time?" Shen Jian asked.”
"This matter has blown up." Lan Jiang sighed. Last night, a female student from that middle school committed suicide by jumping off a building. It was said that she had a mental breakdown after being forced by the gangsters to entertain guests. There was also a group of gangsters who were even more arrogant. They directly rushed into a private house to kill people. It was a pair of father and daughter. The father was killed on the spot by the group of gangsters in order to protect his daughter. Damn it, the little wimp was really going overboard these days.”
The more Lan Jiang spoke, the angrier he got. He kicked the wall a few times."If we catch them, we'll shoot them.”
Even though Inspector Lan Jiang was corrupt, he had a good heart and a sense of justice.
Originally, if the gangsters were only fighting, the police would not have cared. After all, there were too many such things.
However, if two people were killed in one night and the community was in a state of panic, the social impact would be worse.
"That elite high school was run by Sir Zhou. Its purpose is to engage in charity and benefit the people at the bottom." With such a thing happening, two murder cases in one night had already been published in the newspapers. Sir Zhou's face was also very embarrassed. This morning, another teacher also went to report him. Yes, it was Teacher Li from yesterday. He told Sir Zhou about the actual situation in the school. After Sir Zhou heard this, he fired the principal in a fit of anger and even called the police to pressure us to solve the case within a time limit. This shit naturally fell on my head again.”
"Haha, that Teacher Li is that tough?" Shen Jian laughed.”
On the side, most people would emphasize interpersonal relationships and would not go overboard. Especially when facing the nobles of the upper class, they would leave some leeway.
It was rare for them to be as headstrong as Teacher Li.
In order to protect his students, Teacher Li had actually reported him to Sir Zhou.
Shen Jian had only said this casually yesterday, but Teacher Li had taken it to heart and put it into action.
He had to admit that Teacher Li was a good teacher.
It was a rare ray of light in this dark and corrupt society.
Shen Jian roughly understood that the position of acting sheriff was not easy to take.
Because to sit in this position, he would have to bear the pressure from Sir Zhou and the rest of the upper class.
If he did well, he would be promoted. If he did not do well, he would take the blame.
Lan Jiang did this because he wanted to support the newcomer, but also because he wanted Shen Jian to take the blame for him.
"I understand, Brother Jiang. You want me to take over the case."”
"Yes." The main thing is that your ability to solve cases is indeed not bad. The higher-ups want us to find the mastermind of these two cases within three days. How about it? Are you confident in challenging them?”
Shen Jian nodded. However, I have a request."
"Go ahead."
"I want to choose my own officers." If possible, I want to recruit some people from society to help.”
"Of course," Lan Jiang agreed."Our police department is lacking manpower." Just do as you wish. Choose whoever you like. It doesn't matter if you're a gangster. Shen Jian, from today onwards, you are a plainclothes officer. You can take off your military uniform."
