Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 646 Long time no see
"Alright, I have to thank Chen for talking to me."

The two chatted for a while longer, and seeing that it was almost time to assemble, Xu Mingliang got up to say goodbye, saying that he wanted to stand guard one last time.

Chen Shu walked a few steps to escort him to the first floor. When he saw Xu Mingliang's still sturdy back as they parted, he couldn't help but feel a little sentimental.

Back then, bomb disposal experts were highly regarded, both within the SWAT team and in other operational units. Bomb disposal didn't involve robots, spray guns, or any of that so-called high-tech equipment.

The most reliable, and also the riskiest, tool is simply one's own bare hands, without any protection.

Back when mobile internet hadn't even emerged yet, they became famous several times in the streets and alleys of Dongzhou solely through newspapers and local television stations.

When the province hosted the Asian Games, I was invited to participate as a torchbearer for a part of the journey.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, he ultimately faded into obscurity. However, with such a long experience as a special police officer, Xu Mingliang probably has no regrets about his life.

I just wonder if, as he prepares to leave the special police force, a profession that has accompanied him through the prime of his youth, he will still feel any regret or nostalgia.

Perhaps, a successful bomb disposal is the best farewell.

For some reason, such a strange thought suddenly popped into Chen Shu's mind. He shook his head, trying to shake off this ominous idea.

"This old bastard is getting a good deal and then acting innocent. Everyone knows that Maqiao is a place that police officers from other district police stations are scrambling to go every year. Hehe, keeping him far away is to prevent others from being envious and keeping an eye on him every day."

Chen Chuan, who appeared out of nowhere, stood next to Chen Shu, gesturing and giving orders, looking as if he had fully recovered.

"Brother Xu has done enough bomb disposal work for so many years, it's time for him to take a break."

Chen Shu squinted, his mind drifting back to the day he had just graduated from police academy and been assigned to the special police unit. Back then, on the training field, Xu Mingliang, dressed in an extremely heavy green riot gear, walked past him; his figure was very tall.

Chen Chuan crossed his arms and said mysteriously, "But do you know where the best retirement job is? Hehe, let me tell you, it's the parking lot security post in the bureau! The job is just to press the door button every day. If there's a blockage, they don't even have to go down. People who come here to do business are more eager to get back than anyone else, and they don't dare to mess around under the noses of the bureau leaders."

"One day on, two days off. Although it's a 24-hour workday, I can go to sleep after 10 pm. No cars from other companies come in, and all the company's vehicles are already in the system, so they open automatically without any worries. I get up at 7 am to switch shifts. It's like living the dream, so wonderful!"

"Alright, alright, I know you have a lot of connections, it's a pity you're in the SWAT team now. Come on, take advantage of your youth and do more work." As an old classmate who was used to his style, Chen Shu interrupted Chen Chuan's nagging and pulled him upstairs.

"No, Book, let's chat a little longer."

"Let's chat a bit more, then I'll arrange for you to be assigned to this SWAT officer's security post, specifically to press the key?"

"Huh? My office is right upstairs from the security office, what else do I need to arrange?"

"My God, do you have any self-respect?"

How much is self-esteem worth?

"."

in the afternoon.

"Chen Da." Zhu Yiba jogged over, grabbed Chen Shu who was really about to go upstairs to his office, and pulled him to a corner of the corridor, looking as mysterious as if he had found a lot of money on the way out.

"What is it?" Chen Shu forcefully pried Zhu Yiba's fingers apart. "You two grown men, talk things out."

Zhu Yiba raised his head, the morning sunlight illuminating his face, and a mysterious smile appeared on his lips.

Chen Shu felt a chill run down his spine and said with some disgust, "Zhu Yiba, you should spend less time with Chen Chuan in the future. You can't pick up these bad habits."

"Tch." Zhu Yiba said disdainfully, although this "tch" was also Chen Chuan's favorite catchphrase recently. "Chen Da, don't confuse me with that unreliable guy Chen Chuan."

"You have something to say."

"Tsk tsk, Mr. Chen, I suggest you go to the washroom and freshen up before you go back to your office."

"Take care of it? Someone's coming to see me this early?"

"Oh yeah, and she's a stunning beauty."

Chen Shu thought to himself that it couldn't be Zhang Yang, but before going back, he still slipped into the washroom and washed himself thoroughly.

And you know what? I don't know why, but after spending the night at work, I always feel greasy all over and feel uncomfortable if I don't wash myself.

After washing up, Chen Shu even breathed on his palms and sniffed them a few times. Only after confirming that the smell of alcohol from the previous night was gone did he feel relieved and return to his office.

Upon opening the door, one could see Yan Chenxi sitting on a small stool, casually helping to wipe the coffee table that Chen Chuan, Zhu Yiba, and others had dirtied the night before.

Yan Chenxi, whom I haven't seen for a long time, still exudes an intellectual beauty. Her hair cascades down like a waterfall, her face is delicate and pointed, and her features are strikingly defined. Now, she also has a touch of mixed-race charm. The combination of these two qualities creates a rare beauty that inexplicably evokes a sense of goodwill.

The small stool seemed unable to contain Yan Chenxi's increasingly full and perky buttocks, the elastic flesh of her buttocks overflowing out nakedly, and even though she was wearing a traditional black long dress, it could not hide the prominent lines of her buttocks.

Seeing the moment he was stunned, Chen Shu felt a little guilty about where he was focusing his gaze, but also marveled at how much he had changed since they last met. It was clear that the food in the government canteen was far more nutritious than what he had eaten at school. "Brother Shu, you're here."

Yan Chenxi was visibly pleased to see Chen Shu enter, but she didn't stop what she was doing. She quickly washed the rag in the small basin on the coffee table and wrung it out.

Looking at his smiling old acquaintance, Chen Shu felt a pang of guilt for some reason, thinking back to the scene yesterday when Chen Chuan jokingly called him a "scumbag".

Over the years, Chen Shu had grown accustomed to being alone, but asking him to actually take that small step forward was still a bit of a challenge. Subconsciously, he always felt that no matter which path he took, he would regret it later.

As I pondered these things, this major life event was simply postponed.

The two were old friends. Chen Shu had just been promoted from a police officer to a grid police chief and went to the Liming grid where Yan Chenxi worked. At that time, Yan Chenxi had just graduated with a master's degree and, with the strong recommendation of her supervisor, served as a temporary grid chief as a selected graduate student.

At that time, Yan Chenxi had just graduated from college and still carried the naivety and awkwardness typical of students. Her enthusiasm and attitude towards public service were excellent, but her helplessness in the face of scoundrels was undeniable.

When a new official takes office, his subordinates are either jealous of her youth, disdainful of her position, or simply too lazy to help. In any case, when Yan Chenxi stands alone in front of everyone, Chen Shu's appearance is like sunlight suddenly shining down from the sky onto her.

warm.

At that time, she thought how wonderful it would be to have someone who could always stand in front of her.

From then on, even though he later enjoyed a successful official career and became more shrewd and worldly-wise, the image of that person in his heart never changed. It was simply hidden deep inside his heart, waiting to be opened by that right person.

"Chenxi, don't do it, don't do it. You rarely come all this way, why did you end up wiping the table?"

Chen Shu hurriedly took the rag from Yan Chenxi's hand, but in his haste, he accidentally grabbed her hand. It was soft, smooth, and boneless.

Taking the rag and placing the small basin in the corner, Chen Shu then took out his treasured white tea from his desk drawer, boiling water and rummaging through the tea leaves.

"Brother Shu, have you been busy lately?"

"I'm alright, how about you?"

"Me? I guess I'll just be like this."

"Oh dear, I'm just being nosy. How could a street office director like you possibly have time to relax? But you guys should keep busy, because only when you're busy can you have a chance to achieve results."

Chen Shu kept working, chatting with Yan Chenxi like an old friend.

Yan Chenxi covered her mouth and kept laughing.

Chen Shu placed the brewed teacup in front of Yan Chenxi, glanced at the wisps of white steam rising from it, and teased, "Your way of laughing doesn't have any of the dignity a director should have."

After hearing this, Yan Chenxi put down her little hand, sat up straight, and then put on a serious face, deliberately speaking in a rough voice, "Doesn't this look a bit like it?"

Chen Shu chimed in, "It's just like it, it's just like it."

"like what?"

"Like a director."

"No, you're wrong now, he's the deputy director."

Chen Shu was taken aback, and said with difficulty, "Deputy Director? That doesn't sound like a good thing."

According to Chen Shu's understanding, it is a disservice and a step down for a street office director to be transferred to a district or county-level bureau as a deputy, even if it is a standing committee position or a major bureau.

So, in his first reaction, Chen Shu felt a little sorry for the other party.

Yan Chenxi twirled a strand of hair draped over her shoulder with her slender, jade-like fingers, winked playfully, and said with a grin, "It's from the municipal government."

"Directly under the city government?" Chen Shuhu was shocked and exclaimed in surprise, "Deputy director? So fast? How old are you? My goodness, even our branch director is only a deputy director."

As she spoke, she deliberately or unintentionally craned her neck to look at Yan Chenxi's head: "I don't think your antennae are thick or long, so how come they're like they've been on a rocket?"

Chen Shu's speculation was reasonable, as the two were old friends who had known each other for a long time. Even if they didn't know each other inside and out, they at least had a general idea of ​​each other's backgrounds. He knew in his heart that, given the position Yan Chenxi had held for the past few years, even those Celestial Dragons might not have been able to achieve this level of speed.

If she had such a strong background, she should have taken the path of the Communist Youth League earlier, instead of being thrown into the community grid from the beginning.

Yan Chenxi didn't treat Chen Shu as an outsider and told him the truth.

It turns out that when she was preparing to join the Party a few years ago, her former leader suppressed it, saying that the unit was short of people, so he reported her as an "anti-Party member" to the higher-level United Front Work Department for record and approval.

Unexpectedly, he was promoted on time in the following days without any delay.
