Chapter 24 - You"re so viciousThe news of the arrival of a beautiful a.s.sistant bureau chief in the not-so-big Fringe City had reached everyone"s ears within a short period of time.
Many people even came early for work or left late for work in order to be able to see outside through the windows upstairs.
Because when Li Ruo Nan came to work, she walked over, so she had to walk from the dormitory to the office building.
The dormitory was not too far away from the office building. It was about 20-30 metres away.However, such a short distance was enough to display Li Ruo Nan"s astonis.h.i.+ng beauty.
With a tall and slender body, a police uniform that fit her well, and a walking posture that had a different charm from the beauties in society, Li Ruo Nan"s beautiful figure was fully displayed.
There was a hint of charm in that calmness, but it also exuded a refres.h.i.+ng feeling as it swayed back and forth. It truly made one feel relaxed and happy; it was extremely beautiful.
In just a single day, many police officers in the police station thought of Li Ruonian as the G.o.ddess of their dreams.
However, it was only in her dreams, because Li Ruo Nan wasn"t just a beauty police flower. She also had another ident.i.ty — their leader, the Deputy Chief of the Munic.i.p.al Public Security Bureau.
Therefore, these policemen could only take a peek at them in private or think to themselves that no one would dare to ask them to do anything concrete.
It would be too awkward if he were to be rejected and then work under Li Ruo Nan.Leader, this is for the City Police.
However, to Li Ruo Nan, she really didn"t feel like she was the leader of the city police.
It had been two days since she"d arrived at the city hall. But the only thing she did in those two days was sit in her office with a newspaper in her hand and a cup of tea on the table.
After that, there was nothing to do.
In the past two days, Chief Chen Zhao had neither held a meeting nor arranged a job for her. It was as if her appearance was like a pebble thrown into a large river, causing only a small ripple. Other than that, there was nothing else.Li Ruonian didn"t know whether or not Chen Zhao was deliberately trying to let him off the hook. He wanted to let everyone know that no matter who it was, the one making the decision was still Chen Zhao.
Of course, this was what he showed her. He wanted to tell her that in this place, there could only be one sound, and that was the sound he, Chen Zhao, had made.Or maybe it was Chen Zhao who was watching her from the shadows.
Of course, there was another possibility, and that was that Chen Zhao was too busy, so busy that he didn"t have time to deal with all these.
Li Ruonian didn"t want to guess Chen Zhao"s intentions. Since she came to Fringe City, she only had one goal, and that was to do her job and fight crime.
As for what the others were thinking, Li Ruonian didn"t want to care.In the past two years, she had focused all her energy on her work, especially now.
The third day was Sat.u.r.day, and Li Ruonian got up early to work as usual.
For a police officer, especially a police officer, wanting to spend the weekend in peace was an extravagant hope.After years of working as a police officer, Li Ruo Nan had gotten used to it. Unless something happened, she would usually spend the weekend at the office.
Moreover, when reporting to her two days ago, Chen Zhao had said that he would greet her today. She wanted to see how Chen Zhao would introduce her and how he would arrange work for her.
… ….
"Chief, when will my work be arranged?" Li Ruonian asked.
"Little Li, don"t worry. This is an extraordinary period and our country is facing a serious situation. We are in a border city, so it is very easy for people from hostile countries to sneak in and cause trouble, causing social instability."
Chen Zhao chuckled and said, "So, right now, the Bureau"s main focus is on stabilizing public security and fighting crime. As long as you arrange your work and are not anxious about it, you should first familiarize yourself with our city. After the situation stabilizes for a while, we can then proceed with our work."Li Ruonian suddenly frowned, "Bureau Chief, you mean, you"re not giving me any work now?"
Chen Zhao chuckled and said, "Oh, Little Li, I can see that you"re also an impatient one, haha..."
"Bureau Chief, do you mean that I understand you?"Li Ruo Nan interrupted him and asked directly.
A trace of displeasure flashed in the depths of Chen Zhao"s eyes, but his face still maintained the same smiling expression.
"Little Li, it looks like you haven"t understood what I mean. I didn"t say that I won"t give you any work to do, but the situation is very complicated. We still have to wait until the situation stabilizes before we can get our hands on each other."With a gentle and leading look, Chen Zhao said, "Besides, even if I give you a job now, it"ll be hard for you to start work here even if you"re unfamiliar with this place, right?"
Li Ruonian"s beautiful eyes immediately turned cold. This Chen Zhao really had some guts. As the bureau chief, he actually dared to openly threaten a deputy director!
"I request that you arrange work for me now, otherwise I will propose the convening of a Party committee."
Li Ruonian coldly said.Chen Zhao was stunned for a moment before anger emerged on his face. Being rebuked by Li Ruo Nan like this, he finally became angry: "Then, please go ahead and do as you please."
Li Ruonian frowned, "Is this how you act as the bureau chief?"
Chen Zhao became furious and said in a deep voice, "Vice Chief Li, aren"t you going overboard with your words? What do I need you to teach me when I"m a director? "If you have nothing else, you can leave. I still have a lot of things to busy myself with …""Alright!"
Li Ruonian nodded, turned around and walked out.
… ….
Six in the evening.
Inside the dining hall of the city"s police department.A dozen policemen were sitting around the table, chatting and looking out from time to time.
"Just the few of us?" Why aren"t the leaders at this Vice Chief Li"s welcoming banquet? " Someone asked in a low voice.
"Silly you!"The person beside him immediately said in a low voice, "That"s what the bureau chief meant. It seems that our new deputy bureau chief has offended the bureau chief and doesn"t like him."
"Then we …"
"We can"t leave. If we all leave, then it will be really lively. A welcoming banquet for the Vice Bureau Chief won"t even be attended by a single person. When that happens, it"ll be hard for the Bureau Chief to explain it to the city.""What the h.e.l.l is going on? Vice Chief Li is such a beautiful woman, why would she …"
"Hey, if she isn"t pretty, I"m afraid that"s not the case yet."
"You mean …"
They could not help but shake their heads in regret."Eh? Quick, look, is that Deputy Chief Li? " Someone suddenly pointed outside the window.
"That"s right, who are those people beside her …" "d.a.m.n, that"s a member of the provincial police. I"ve seen him before when the deputy chief got down from his horse..."
"Huh?"
Everyone was shocked. It was actually someone from the provincial superintendency team. Why was Vice Chief Li walking together with them? And at this time?"Look, they"ve entered the office building!"
… …."Director, is this really okay?"
Inside the bureau chief"s office, there were more than a dozen people gathered. These people were all leaders of the bureau. From the deputy bureau chief to the department level officials, they could all be found here.
Chen Zhao sat on the boss"s chair and waved his hand, saying, "This is an extraordinary period, of course, we have to use extraordinary means …"In his heart, however, he was filled with disdain. A big-chested, brainless woman who hadn"t even sat on the bench to warm up yet actually wanted to wrestle with him?
Then he would let Li Ruo Nan know who was in charge of this city"s police department!
"Bam!"The sound of the office door opening interrupted Chen Zong"s train of thoughts as he entered.
"Vice Chief Li, do you have any rules? Don"t you know … "Eh, Hall Master Xu?" The moment Chen Zhao saw Li Ruo Nan, he was immediately enraged. However, before he could finish venting his anger, he suddenly saw a familiar face in the crowd and his expression changed.
"Chen Zhao, these are the comrades from the provincial disciplinary committee and the provincial department"s surveillance team. They have some questions that they need your a.s.sistance with." The person called Hall Master Xu said.
"Please."
Three people stepped forward and held Chen Zhao from left to right. One of them was on guard, while the others looked at the other policemen in the office with vigilance and sternness.
With a swoosh, Chen Zhao"s face turned deathly white, his legs went limp, and he almost collapsed on the ground.
He looked at Li Ruo Nan with great difficulty, his lips trembling: "You, you … … "So vicious!"
