Chapter 584 Merit is rewarded! (Seeking monthly votes)

"Damn, this is really dangerous!"

In the small kitchen of the security department at the Gulou Repair Factory, Old Li sipped his piping hot chicken soup while muttering curses under his breath.

A week has passed!
However, the aftershocks of Wu Aiguo's assistance to the police station in arresting human traffickers that night had not completely subsided.

After all, guns were used, and they were Type 56 semi-automatic rifles.

Meanwhile, more than thirty abducted children were rescued.

Given the sheer number of cases, calling it a major case is no exaggeration.

It is said that this matter even alarmed higher-ups!
Such a shocking case has occurred in the capital city right under the emperor's nose; certain people must be held accountable for it.

Fortunately, the human traffickers were all apprehended; otherwise, the situation would not have been so easily resolved. Which of those high-ranking officials would tolerate such a blunder?

In particular, the wanted criminal killed by Wu Aiguo was a core henchman of the human trafficking group. If he had actually injured the police officers who were arresting him and escaped, that would have been a huge mess.

That's right, another unexpected event occurred during the arrest operation that night.

It was that wanted criminal who initially lay in wait in the shadows, only to suddenly strike and injure people when the opportunity arose.

He injured three police officers in succession before fleeing.

Because the scene was too chaotic, and there were many abducted children involved, Lao Li barely managed to suppress his urge to fire.

Yes, he also carried a gun.

In addition, some of the families of the abducted children are not well-off.

If they start causing trouble, even the head of the Dongcheng District Public Security Bureau might not be able to handle it.

If anything goes wrong during the rescue, Old Li won't have an easy time either.

Finally, the Gulou Police Station's actions this time went too far.

The location where the human traffickers were apprehended is no longer within the Gulou district!

It's right over the overpass, very close to Xicheng District.

All I can say is that Lao Li was very lucky.

The arrest and rescue operations were all successfully completed; otherwise, he would probably have had to retire to the second line early, and that's no joke.

"Old Li, I told you to eat slowly!"

A whole rooster, with some medicinal herbs added, was simmered for about an hour and turned into a tender and delicious medicinal chicken soup.

As a result, in just a short time, a pile of chicken bones had accumulated in front of Old Li, and the rich chicken soup in the earthenware pot had decreased by at least half.

"It smells so good!"

Old Li didn't stand on ceremony at all. He picked up a big chicken leg and stuffed it into his mouth while mumbling, "It's not much different from the chefs in state-run restaurants!"

"Chefs at state-run restaurants would never add expensive medicinal herbs to chicken soup!"

Wu Aiguo said irritably, "This stuff is called 'highly nutritious chicken soup'!"

"Oh, it's still such good stuff!"

Old Li's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized, "No wonder my whole body felt warm after eating it, so that's why!"

"Otherwise what? Do you really think that all my martial arts skills came from nowhere? That's nonsense."

Wu Aiguo poured himself a bowl of chicken soup and gulped it down, a look of enjoyment spreading across his face.

He bought it from the spontaneously formed farmers' market near Deshengmen during the day; it can be considered a truly harmless rooster.

"You're ruthless! You probably sacrificed your salary and benefits. I have a family to support, I can't afford to follow your example!"

Old Li clicked his tongue in amazement, but his hands showed no sign of slowing down.

In less than half an hour, the chicken and chicken soup in the earthenware pot were completely eaten up without any residue.

Incidentally, they also devoured nearly three pounds of mixed grain rice, proving that everyone at that moment was a true glutton. Those who practice martial arts, like Wu Aiguo and Old Li, experience even greater physical exertion.

"How are you feeling now?"

While clearing away the dishes, Wu Aiguo spoke with a smile.

"Of course, I'm completely satisfied!"

Old Li chuckled and said, "I might have to start working at the branch office in a while!"

Ok?
Wu Aiguo was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized what was going on and said angrily, "Well, you clearly got a huge benefit, but you're still trying to trick me. We can't even be friends anymore!"

Of course, this is just a joke.

Old Li's promotion to the Dongcheng District branch was naturally a great thing for him.

Who told the Wu family to have such a weak foundation!

The rise has been too rapid, and so far we haven't made any truly reliable friends; we simply can't withstand any setbacks.

Director Chen of the neighborhood committee doesn't count!
If he can leverage the success of the repair shop to take things a step further, the two companies might be able to transform from colleagues into reliable friends.

That's just how reality is!

In the city, there are many people who have made outstanding contributions to the country.

Even Zhong Yuemin cannot be considered a top-tier second-generation heir.

"No way, you just can't keep your temper in check!"

Old Li laughed and said, "I came here to congratulate you!"

"Oh, does that mean my level will also be raised?"

Wu Aiguo chuckled and said, "If that's really the case, then that would be great!"

"Not only you, but your father and the entire repair shop will probably get promoted again!"

Old Li lowered his voice and revealed with a smile.

"No way, the factory was only recently upgraded!"

"How about we transfer you to the public security system, so you can work at a police station?"

"Forget it, if I really go to the police station, will I even have any free time? It's much more comfortable to stay in the security department of the repair shop!"

"But you've done a good job, so naturally there's bound to be a reaction. Doesn't that mean Director Wu and the entire repair shop will benefit from it?"

At this point, Old Li sighed, "Besides, the repair shop is thriving and quite famous throughout the entire Dongcheng District!"

"Three-wheeled motorcycles and hand-held tractors, those are really good stuff!"

"The police station doesn't have a single sidecar motorcycle yet, so the repair shop has to find a way to provide a few!"

Such a situation is almost unimaginable in later generations.

But that's just how things are right now!

Wu Aiguo did not continue to be modest. He naturally knew the situation of the repair shop and there was no need to erase the contributions of his coworkers.

"Well, it seems my treat of medicinal chicken soup wasn't a waste!"

With a laugh, Wu Aiguo changed the subject: "There are probably still a lot of loose ends to be made regarding those human traffickers, right? Do you need my help again?"

"No, no, no, the Dongcheng District Public Security Bureau has already spread the word about your amazing deeds!"

Old Li hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This matter involves too many people and affects a wide area. The ministry must take charge of it personally!"

"Also, your action of firing without hesitation has displeased many comrades, after all, this is the capital!"

"Screw it! That guy is a master of the Six Harmonies Blade. Luckily, I didn't get carried away and think about having a duel with him using martial arts techniques. If he had gotten away, I would have been the one to take the blame!"
