Living in North America, working from 9 to 5

Chapter 73: No shame at all!

Seeing Kane's pretentious appearance, the patrol officers in the bureau became more and more unhappy, and the expressions of other civilian staff were not much better.

Everyone was very happy today. Early in the morning, they learned from the director's secretary Dai Lin that the General Administration would issue a commendation order to the Brooklyn Branch. Although it was a collective honor, it did not prevent everyone from feeling happy.

You should know that the last time the Brooklyn Branch received a commendation order was five years ago. In recent years, all the commendations and collective commendations have been divided up by other branches, and the Brooklyn Branch didn't even get a sip.

Today, you, Kane...

Every police officer in the Brooklyn Police Department cursed in his heart the "deputy chief" of the Special Investigations Division who looked down on patrol officers.

Kane Jiberi looked at Roy and continued:
"I think our director has called your Chief Gordon. As long as you agree, the transfer order and related procedures will be approved quickly. Roy, are you willing to become one of us?"

"Feel sorry……"

Roy only said these two words.

The more harsh the previous words were, the more unhappy Roy felt.

At this moment, he had the same idea as his colleagues.

"What? Sorry? Did I hear you right? Roy?"

Kane used four questioning tones in a row and looked at Roy with an incredible and unbelievable expression.

"Kane, Deputy... Director, you heard it right."

When saying this, Roy deliberately prolonged the words "deputy" and "director", obviously not recognizing the other party's identity.

Hearing Roy's words, Kane's face suddenly darkened. The corners of his mouth twitched, his eyelids twitched, and he looked unhappy. He couldn't believe that the boy in front of him actually rejected his kindness.

When Pierre heard that Roy rejected Kane, he laughed. He really couldn't control his facial expression. He still remembered Kane's slightly sarcastic and complacent expression. Seeing Kane suffer the same setback as himself, others didn't know, but he was very happy anyway.

After hearing Roy's answer, colleagues in the bureau made all kinds of strange noises, and some even applauded. The next second, everyone applauded collectively and booing followed.

"I told you, Roy won't leave us."

"That's right, that guy is so arrogant."

"Being rejected in front of so many people, you must have lost face, right?"

"Hahaha!"

"Oh ho!!"

There were even whistles heard at the scene.

It was harsh, too harsh. Facing the booing of other police officers at the scene, Kane Jiboli's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were as cold as ice, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

Amid the noise, he said to Roy:

"Roy, are you really going to refuse my invitation?"

Roy smiled and said:

"I'm sorry, I'm really not interested in being a detective. Compared to taking on various cases, I prefer patrolling under the scorching sun every day. This makes me feel very relaxed."

"you……"

Kane took a deep breath and tried to suppress his soaring heart rate. He was indeed angry. What he was thinking was, "What an ungrateful boy! I, a deputy director, came here in person to invite you, but you rejected me in front of so many people."

As soon as Roy finished speaking, the booing started again.

Kane tried hard to control his facial expression.

In fact, Roy didn't say anything. He apologized and explained. His answer to Kane was almost the same as his previous answer to Pierre.

The main reason was that Kane was a little too self-righteous, and also the booing from other patrol officers at the scene was too harsh, making him lose face and unable to back down.

Plus Pierre couldn't control his laughter beside him...

"You will regret this, Roy von Weizsäcker. You will pay the price for your recklessness today. Remember my name, Kane Geberit."

After saying that, Kane turned around and walked quickly towards the police station gate amidst the whistles and cheers.

This is what narrow-minded people are like. It was just a normal rejection, but they had to make it a drama for themselves, thinking that he, Kane, is so awesome that no one can reject him and everyone has to give him face.

If this idiot hadn't just spoken in such a high-handed manner, causing his colleagues to be extremely unhappy with him, Roy would have spoken a little more politely.

Who are you showing this sour face to, Kane?
Roy would not indulge him. After Kane left, warm applause broke out in the police station.

Pierre shook hands with Roy and left the police station.

Gordon saw this scene. He looked at the office hall and said to his secretary Dai Lin:
"Ask Roy to come to my office."

"Okay, Chief..."

Coming to Roy's workstation, Dai Lin said:

"Commissioner Gordon wants you to come to his office."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Roy nodded, picked up his report, stood up and walked towards the director's office. When he arrived at Gordon's office, Roy knocked on the door.

dong dong dong-

"Come in!"

After entering, Roy closed the office door.

"I saw what happened outside just now. Please sit down."

Roy sat down opposite Gordon's desk, took the cigarette Gordon handed him, lit it, and took a puff.

Gordon continued:

"Just now, the director of the Investigation Bureau called me and wanted to transfer you to the Investigation Bureau. I told him that I wanted to ask for your personal opinion."

Roy nodded and said "hmm".

"I haven't hung up the phone yet, and Kane is here. This is obviously what they discussed. One discussed it with me, and the other came to see you."

Roy continued to nod.

"I just learned about Kane through my friends in the investigation bureau. He is narrow-minded, profit-driven, greedy for money and fame, and vindictive. You didn't give him the slightest bit of face in front of so many people today. He will definitely remember it. You have to be careful in the near future."

Roy nodded:
"I understand, Chief, I will be careful..."

"Well, there is one more thing. You have performed very well recently. I have reported to the General Administration and applied for a personal commendation and medal for you. It will probably be approved within a week. At that time, I will hold an award ceremony within the bureau for you, Mia and Tom, as well as a collective commendation for your B team and other police officers who participated in this operation."

"Okay, Director!"

"Go ahead. Dai Lin will notify you about the administrative leave."

Roy stood up and left Gordon's office.

Watching Roy's departing back, Gordon took a long puff of cigarette, his eyes narrowed slightly, thinking of Kane Gibler...

After seven days of administrative leave, Mia recovered and began to fantasize about going into the woods with Roy. In order to be able to partner with Roy for a long time, Mia personally went to Jonathan's house with gifts during her leave...

After learning about the warehouse, Jonathan, injured, brought Susan and Lina to Roy's apartment for a visit.

One night, Roy received a call from Irina:

"I heard that you've been in the limelight again?"

"Uh……"

"did you miss me?"

"I think about you day and night..."

"Where's your brother?"

"Ready to make a move..."

Irina laughed on the phone:
"I'm currently in Mexico on business. I'll be back in about a week. Tell your brother to leave the goods with me. I'll inspect them when I come back. If the quantity is not enough, you're dead."
