Chapter 21 Reminder
After hearing Li An's words, Zhou Sheng felt a little depressed.
He was silent for a moment and suddenly asked:
"Do you know why I went to the police?"
At this time, Li An also noticed that something was wrong with Zhou Sheng's state. He shook his head and listened quietly.
Zhou Sheng didn't seem to expect Li An to say anything and laughed at himself.
“I used to live in a wooden house area, and I worked with my dad since I was a child.
You should know that people like us who come from the wooden house area either have mixed prefixes, or go to factories, or find a master to learn a trade, do coolies, or work as errands. "
"It's great to be an errand, it's definitely the first choice for civilians, with high salary and prestige!
It happened that an uncle from my hometown whom my father helped was also working as a police officer, so I applied for the police academy as soon as I reached my age. "
"When I was a child, I saw the bitterness of being bullied by the society. Since I am on the job, I must be a good policeman!
The funny thing is that when we were training in school, the instructor first taught us how to collect dirty money and how to respect our superiors. "
"When I first made military uniforms, do you know what the vendors were talking about me behind my back?
Bad and stupid!
Because police officers are sometimes worse than gangsters in the society in their eyes, so why do you say that a military uniform who doesn't charge fees is not bad and stupid? "
"Starting from the ghosts at the top, the entire police force has become corrupt. Then those of us who are plainclothes below can only follow the same trend. We can't help ourselves."
"Since I can't change it, I can only accept it passively. If there is a case, I will do things, and if I have nothing to do, I will be a salted fish."
"But my uncle is old, and his brothers have been with him for many years. Now, he wants me to take over his position before retirement, so that my brothers will not be squeezed out because of a new head. "
"I'm also thinking today, should I continue to make salted fish, or should I follow my uncle's arrangements?"
Hearing this, Li An understood.
Rather than saying that Zhou Sheng was mocking himself, it would be better to say that he took advantage of this opportunity to talk and make a decision.
Li An did not comment or interfere, he just stood aside and remained quiet.
After a while.
Zhou Sheng, who remained silent, finally took a deep breath, and put a smile on his face again.
"Huh, it's much more comfortable."
"Decided?!" Li An asked softly.Although he was asking, his tone was very certain.
"Yeah." Zhou Sheng nodded and smiled: "Since I have done this job and received so much favor from Uncle, there is no reason to shrink back at this point."
"The road is your own, you can decide for yourself. As a junior, I will definitely support you."
Li An patted Zhou Sheng's arm.
He thought for a moment and felt that it was still necessary to remind Zhou Sheng.
He didn't want his senior brother to be among the escaped detectives ten years later.
So, he made a digression:
"Do you know why those ghosts let go of the corrupt police force?"
Zhou Sheng didn't think too much, and pointed to the north side:
"Of course I was scared out of my wits by that side, worried that they would come over at any time. And the ghosts who are in charge of Hong Kong Island are just a group of unlucky bastards who are far away from the center of power. Of course they will make a fortune. idea."
Li An nodded secretly and tentatively guided:
"But if there is no movement over there, and instead it is used as the mainland's only window to world trade, Hong Kong Island's economy will develop rapidly, which will make the ghosts on the other side of the ocean think about Hong Kong Island again.
But at this time they discovered that the citizens have long been complained by associations and police officers, and the credibility of the British Hong Kong authorities has long been lost. How do you think they will deal with it? "
Zhou Sheng frowned: "Isn't that possible?"
"What I'm talking about is if, assuming a possible situation." Li An considered the words.
Zhou Sheng was seriously thinking about the possibility that Li An mentioned.
Assuming that it is really as Ang Lee said, there has been no movement on the mainland for a long time.
Needless to say, that ghost will definitely pay more attention to Hong Kong Island again, this harbor integrating shipping, trade, and undertaking Western labor-intensive low-end manufacturing.
Of course, at this moment, Zhou Sheng was thinking more.
Because with the laissez-faire of the British Hong Kong government, whether it is associations, commercial firms, or the police force, the Chinese have gradually begun to show signs of becoming powerful.
If the ghost guys really intend to restore the public's credibility in the Hong Kong government, given the urinary behavior of those ghost guys, they will most likely use this as an excuse.
While rectifying the atmosphere, take advantage of the situation to suppress the Chinese.
The police force, as the law enforcement unit responsible for maintaining order on Hong Kong Island, will naturally become the primary target of the ghosts.
How to suppress it?
Re-create an anti-corruption unit?
Will it just be one more portion?
Zhou Sheng looked at Li An: "What do you think?"
Although he had some speculations in his mind, he still wanted to hear what Li An had to say.
Ang Lee took over the conversation:
"Hong Kong Island is densely populated and fire-fighting facilities in houses are not in place, so fires are common. Whenever there is a fire, the fire brigade has to collect money before putting out the fire.
The same goes for you errands. Whether they are merchants or hawkers, errands will come from time to time to collect fees, just like a common occurrence.
There are also immigration offices and correctional institutions, where corruption is also prevalent.
As far as I know, many citizens in the wooden house area where I live have made anonymous reports to the Anti-Corruption Unit, but they have received no response. "
After a pause, Li An continued:
"If the Hong Kong government is going to re-establish its credibility, it must be the first thing to solve the corruption, after all, the effect is the most obvious."
When Zhou Sheng heard this, he also felt that Li An's words were not unreasonable.
He thought for a while, and then asked: "There is no one in the public service system of Hong Kong Island who is not corrupt. Are they planning to arrest all these people? Who will maintain the order of Hong Kong Island?"
Li An smiled:
"Of course it is impossible to kill them all at once. The queen will most likely pardon some congressmen, ghosts, and low-level civil servants to ensure the smooth execution of tasks by the anti-corruption department.
Then increase the salaries and benefits of civil servants to reduce the occurrence of corruption. "
"So, no matter whether you are involuntarily or willingly fall, as long as you grasp the balance and do not go out of line. Even if the Hong Kong government does establish an anti-corruption department, there is a high probability that it will not be liquidated."
until this time.
No matter how slow Zhou Sheng's reaction was, he understood that Li An's oblique words were actually meant for him.
My heart is moved:
"thank you."
"Brother, why don't you be so polite?" Li An said with an exaggerated expression.
"Fuck you." Zhou Sheng laughed and cursed, then said: "How do you know so much? If I remember correctly, you don't seem to have read much, right?"
Li An chuckled:
"Am I born knowing that this is not good?"
"It's a ghost!"
Zhou Sheng curled his lips and said disdainfully:
"If you really knew this from birth, how could you still have worked as a waiter in a restaurant for so many years? You would have been rich by now."
