Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 483 Convenient Police Station

The next day.

The warm sun hung in the sky.

Having spent quite a few days in Nxjiang, Chen Shu stood in front of the bathroom mirror, touching his somewhat long hair. He decided to find a hair salon near the hotel to get a haircut before the morning research trip began.

I'm used to the energy and spirit of short hair, and sometimes I feel uncomfortable when my hair grows even a little bit longer.

Based on his memory from a few days ago, Chen Shu successfully found a hair salon in an alley behind the hotel.

The hair salon was small, only about 20 square meters, with three old barber chairs and a reclining chair specifically for washing hair. A plump woman sat on a small stool at the entrance of the shop, eating sunflower seeds.

"Madam, would you like a haircut?"

"Lili li!" The older sister spat out the shell and smiled as she got up to invite Chen Shu into the store.

Chen Shu's hairstyle has always been a short buzz cut, which is not technically difficult. He simply told the older woman his requirements, and she picked up the hair clippers, put a length comb on his head, and started "scratching" and "scratching" his hair.

"Handsome, are you here for tourism?" Hairdressers are all quite chatty, and the older woman was no exception.

"Yes, the culture here is exceptionally good." Chen Shu recalled the ancient city he had visited a few days ago. He had to admit that it was indeed much better than those 5A and 4A scenic spots in the mainland. At least it looked genuinely fresh and charming.

"Hehe, that's what everyone who comes here says! But I've been here so long that I can't feel it anymore."

During their conversation, Chen Shu learned that this woman was from Shanghai and had come here with her parents many years ago, making her a third-generation soldier. Her grandparents, as builders, laid down their guns and went to the Gobi Desert to cultivate land and gradually settled down here. Then, they brought their family members from Shanghai to live with them here.

"Hush! Hush!"

"Shh~~~!!"

As the two were talking, a whistle suddenly sounded outside.

The older woman, who had been chatting with him, immediately put down her hair clippers, abandoned Chen Shu who still had a "half-shaved head," hurriedly ran into the inner room, put on a helmet and a bomb suit, grabbed a long stick, and ran out of the shop.

Chen Shu, who was still sitting in the chair waiting for his haircut, was startled, thinking something serious had happened. He pulled off the apron draped over his body and threw it on the ground, grabbed a mop by the door, and, seeing that it was quite thick, followed the older woman out.

Honestly, he had never seen a fat person of this woman's size run so fast.

"Handsome, you don't need to come out. It's just a community drill, nothing serious." Perhaps hearing the commotion behind her, the older woman turned around with some surprise.

"A drill?" Chen Shu stopped in his tracks.

"Yes, we do it several times a week. Just wait for me at the shop, I'll be right back."

The older woman smiled and explained a few words, then followed the locals who had run out to practice the drill and ran together out of the alley.

Chen Shu was a little confused, so he could only carry the mop back to the shop.

When the older woman returned, she kept praising Chen Shu as a courageous man, saying that unsuspecting customers had encountered similar situations before. They were just as quick as the older woman, but they were all running in the opposite direction.

After getting their hair cut and returning to the hotel, everyone had breakfast and was drinking coffee in the lobby while waiting for Wang Hao to come and pick them up.

Shelly was also there. Aside from not joining their research trip, she'd already mingled with everyone. Especially after hearing that her trip to Nxjiang wasn't just for livestreaming, but also to visit her boyfriend who works for the country there, everyone respected her even more. They'd assumed all internet celebrities were materialistic and snobbish, but Shelly seemed to be different.

People who have been working part-time since childhood must have extremely high emotional intelligence. Chen Shu looked at Shelly, who was chatting enthusiastically with Lin Dakai while holding two cups of coffee, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Shelly, with her exquisite makeup, is unlike those internet celebrities who rely on beauty filters to gain popularity. She's the kind of stunning beauty who would absolutely amaze and turn heads on any man walking down the street. In terms of presence, she could easily engage in conversation with a professor at the police academy, a testament to her hard work in university, even though she didn't pursue postgraduate studies. As for her attire, she wore a bodycon dress that women of this era wouldn't dare wear in broad daylight, revealing her bare shoulders, long neck, and subtly hinting at her cleavage.

"A woman with a cleavage is bound to become famous"—there's a reason she became an internet celebrity.

Seeing Chen Shu looking over, Shelly slightly raised her coffee cup, tilted her head, and smiled gently as a greeting.

She is also a hardworking anchor.

During this period, due to the research and tight project schedule, everyone got up early to gather in the lobby, and you could almost always run into Shelly holding a selfie stick, also preparing to go out for a live broadcast.

Jiang Hai even secretly registered a new account during his evening rest and visited Shelly's live stream several times, confidently asserting that she was a good girl.

Fearing that the boy's values ​​would be distorted, Chen Shu deliberately shared his past experiences with him. However, Jiang Hai nodded in agreement while watching the youthful and beautiful Shelly on his phone screen with great interest.

Chen Shu ultimately had no choice but to remain silent.

"Brother Shu." Shelly sat down with two cups of coffee, smiling but not saying a word. She handed the unopened coffee cup in her other hand to Chen Shu, looking very confident.

On the contrary, Chen Shu felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, not daring to reach out and take the coffee that had already been handed to him, waiting for Wang Hao's mainland tour to arrive so he could get up and flee in panic.

All that remained was a series of clear and melodious laughs behind them.

And a cold snort came from beside him.

Led by Wang Hao, Lin Dakai, Chen Shu and their group arrived at the community police station, where they unexpectedly met their captain, Lao Cheng.

The man, Lao Cheng, was in his forties and had a robust build with bright, piercing eyes. He stood at the entrance of the two-story police station, clearly waiting for Chen Shu and his group.

Wang Hao was somewhat surprised. When he met Lao Cheng on the first floor of the Municipal Bureau earlier, he felt that Lao Cheng didn't seem to care much about these researchers. Why was he personally greeting them now?
This guy's stubbornness is well-known in the department!
The sun is rising in the west!
Lao Cheng showed no sign of anything amiss, smiling as he stepped forward to shake hands with Lin Dakai and the others, giving brief self-introductions in a natural tone.

"The double-layered police service station should be operating on a three-shift, two-rotation basis according to regulations, but due to the heavy workload of the bureau, we basically don't get any rest. A while ago, the higher-ups implemented a 'three-minute police service circle mechanism,' which means that after get off work, the guys below only get a short nap before having to get up and work non-stop."

"Later, the bureau proposed three more crackdowns: 'strike as soon as your head shows,' 'strike as soon as you see a sign,' and 'strike as soon as you smell something.' The brothers really threw themselves into their work, both mentally and physically, without taking a break. Fortunately, there were results; the public security situation has improved significantly in the past two years."

Not far from the police station, a group of four fully armed police officers set up a checkpoint on the roadside. One officer checked the people being checked, one officer kept watch on the people being checked, and the other two officers kept watch on the surrounding area.

Two Chinese police officers and two Wei police officers.

Lin Dakai asked, "Chengda, can we go over and take a look?"

"welcome!"

Lao Cheng led the group toward the temporary checkpoint.

Sigh, I keep getting blocked, and I'm always on the path of revising my writing.
