Chapter 19: Something’s Wrong with the Body (1/2)
The deputy director put down the document in his hand and asked the secretary, “Do you know the details?”
The secretary nodded, lowered his voice, and said, “Before this, someone already talked to the commissioner, hoping that he would convince the station to let go of those young masters, but the director didn’t agree. His reason was that those spoiled brats humiliated our patrol officers, and the director meant that patrol officers are police officers too, and the branch bureau did send over convincing evidence showing what happened from beginning to end. Besides, the impact of this incident was quite big, so considering the reputation of the police station, we cannot privately deal with it but let it go through the due process.”
The deputy director sighed, and then he asked the secretary, “Get me the information of the patrol officer that was involved in this matter.”
According to his understanding of the director, things like this would usually reach him before the director, let alone the director personally dealing with it. Something was a bit strange.
Immediately, he got up and went to the director’s office. After knocking on the door, the muscular middle-aged man in the mirror put down his mirror and smiled at him, saying, “Need me for something?”
The deputy director smiled as well. “Very strange that you would protect a little patrol officer that just got on the job.”
“You are overthinking it. Since the whole thing was exposed and the patrol officer was in the right, no one can deliberately be biased towards anyone. Those that should be detained should be detained.”
“I understand.” The deputy nodded. Such a straightforward tone, it would be odd if there’s nothing strange about it. This patrol officer definitely came from a big background.
At dusk, when Xu Cheng was too lazy to take off the uniform and went to dinner in it, Ran Jing asked in curiosity, “You are really a police officer?”
“It’s a crime to impersonate a police officer.” Xu Cheng glanced at her, giving her the “no sh*t Sherlock” eye.
Shen Yao’s voice suddenly floated over, “You should go be a traffic cop instead.”
Ran Jing nodded. “I agree.”
Xu Cheng chewed on a slice of meat. “Why?”
Shen Yao: “Because of your iron face and selfless character. You can see a pretty girl and still give her a ticket, and then you will get promoted after you consistently overachieve the quota.”
Xu Cheng almost choked on the meat.
Just then, a subtle but annoying “buzz” sound came to his ear. Xu Cheng frowned, and from the corner of his eye, he saw a fly. With a “pew”, he caught the fly mid-flight with his chopsticks.
Both women were shocked by his sudden move, and when they subconsciously looked at the chopsticks, they were both dumbfounded, seeing the fly.
Xu Cheng also successfully shocked himself.
He looked at his hand, and then recalled what he just did. Needless to say, the speed of his hand was incredibly quick.
“Eplained after seeing that Xu Cheng caught a fly.
Xu Cheng let go of the fly and looked at his hand as if his mind was out of it. That speed… It was indeed very quick, even faster than his speed from back when he was at the pinnacle stage of tier A!
However, wasn’t the genetic fluid injected into his body causing some blockage which resulted in a drop in his physical capabilities? He also didn’t feel anything different ever since then, but his speed just now did shock him.
Ran Jing was also very shocked by Xu Cheng’s sudden strike on the fly. The speed was comparable to wind, she didn’t even see when Xu Cheng moved his hand, and when she looked up with Shen Yao, they already saw Xu Cheng holding the pose “Oh hey I caught this fly”.
