Reborn Cat Sheriff

Chapter 120 Education is not easy

On the way back, Zhang Ke gave the keys to the red Mercedes to Sun Chang so that she could take Deng Yanxi to find a place to rest.

Zhang Ke himself took on the task of sending the five little ones home.

The chattering of the kids along the way finally made him realize just how much trouble the rascal cat lying on the dashboard had caused him.

Zhang Ke's face looked extremely grim.

The next morning, after finishing the meeting, he went to find Nie Guoqiang again, his head covered in spittle from Zhang Yong's criticism and his face sour.

Having finally obtained Nie Guoqiang's approval, he contacted Sun Chang to meet him at the police station entrance. The two agreed to have breakfast together before going to Baimiao Junior High School to completely resolve Deng Yanxi's problem.

Lin Ge was somewhat interested in what happened yesterday and shamelessly followed along. Zhang Ke was disgusted, but there was nothing he could do about Lin Ge.

It took him a long time to readjust his emotions.

"Actually, it's difficult for the police alone to change the atmosphere in a school. All we can do is draw a line: bullying and being bullied should never intersect."

While driving, Zhang Ke kept glancing at Sun Chang. The girl had changed into her police uniform again today, looking energetic and spirited.

"I understand everything you're saying, but I just don't understand why the school's atmosphere can be this bad."

Sun Chang was filled with worry.

I was taking Deng Yanxi to school this morning, and I was worried that she might face retaliation because of what happened last night.

Zhang Ke sighed.

"It's a problem with social attitudes! After all, the argument that education is useless has become increasingly prevalent in recent years. Some parents just want their children to complete nine years of compulsory education, and then make money by riding the wave of a trend. They think it's easy. Given this demand, don't expect schools with poor teaching quality to treat students too well, since those parents don't even have that requirement."

"Incomprehensible."

Sun Chang closed his eyes and then opened them again: "What you learn in school, besides knowledge, includes personal qualities, behavior, morality, values, and eloquence. Without these things, can anyone really succeed in society?"

Zhang Ke sneered and said, "In reality, there are always one or two lucky ones, and then parents assume that their own children can be the same lucky ones."

Lin Ge pursed his lips in the back seat.

Like gold being sifted from sand, the vast majority are just idiots who have been eliminated. Lucky? You see they didn't go to school, but why don't you look at their parents?

Lin Ge was filled with mockery and disdain.

Zhang Ke and Sun Chang also lost interest in continuing the conversation, so they changed the subject and started talking about some personal things.

This was the first time the two had actually spent time together in private, but fortunately, their shared profession gave them a lot to talk about. Zhang Ke talked about some mistakes he made when he first joined the company, which made Sun Chang chuckle to himself.

When it was time for breakfast, Sun Chang helped Zhang Ke wipe the table, and Zhang Ke handed Sun Chang a dipping saucer, their interaction intimate yet respectful. Noticing a bit of sesame paste on Zhang Ke's lips, Sun Chang pointed to her cheek and handed him a tissue, and the two smiled at each other.

Lin Ge watched this scene with cold eyes, and suddenly felt that he had been fed a lot of dog food.

If it weren't for the fact that the meat buns at this shop tasted good, he would have stayed far away from that despicable couple no matter what.

hateful!

One night later, the red Mercedes once again entered the gate of Baimiao Middle School.

At this time, all the students in the school gathered on the playground for a meeting, listening to the school leaders read out the rules and requirements, and incidentally mentioning that so-and-so would be criticized for violating the school rules, and would be expelled if they did it again.

The students were mostly not listening, and were simply chatting amongst themselves, pretending not to see what was happening above.

Two policemen walked over side by side and were quickly spotted by the students behind them. The news spread like wildfire, and everyone began to look back. Some were even trembling with anxiety, grabbing the students next to them to hide themselves.

Soon, the students noticed Lin Ge following behind Zhang Ke and Sun Chang. They were all surprised to see that Lin Ge had specially worn a vest today.

A cat in a police uniform?
So cool!

"Comrades, what brings you here today?"

The school leaders frowned and stopped Zhang Ke and the other person.

The head of special education looked particularly displeased.

He only found out yesterday that the two men had taken a female student off campus. He was quite shocked and immediately called the Baimiao Police Station to complain. This morning, he found the female student at the school and gave her a severe scolding.

“We received a report that some students at your school were involved in off-campus groups and committed juvenile delinquent acts. The leadership took this very seriously and sent me to investigate.”

Zhang Ke took out a piece of paper from his briefcase, stamped with the official seal of Zhanghe Police Station. This was the support and gratitude he received this morning after being severely criticized by Zhang Yong.

"Juvenile...crime?"

The dean of students was startled; the word "crime" was no joke. Seeing Zhang Ke nod with a serious expression, he quickly turned to find the principal.

"Really?"

Sun Chang secretly asked Zhang Ke, and that's when she found out that Zhang Ke also had an imperial edict.

"Hard to say."

Zhang Ke shook his head and said in a low voice, "But it's very dangerous for the school to get involved with things outside the school. Whether it's true or not, the leaders' meaning is very clear: the school must take this matter seriously. They are the ones who manage the school on a daily basis. What we can do is put enough pressure on them so that they dare not be lazy and negligent anymore."

Lin Ge nodded thoughtfully beside him.

Indeed! Schools are not under the jurisdiction of the local police station; their direct superior is the Education Bureau.

Even though the police station can handle bullying incidents, it can only watch helplessly as the school's atmosphere deteriorates.

In this situation, only by putting enough pressure on the school and letting them know that the consequences are related to their jobs will they take the initiative to mobilize.

Of course, this is the action taken by Zhanghe Police Station in response to the bullying incident at Baimiao Junior High School. As for Baimiao Police Station, relevant departments have already contacted the Education Bureau.

The female principal hurriedly ended her speech and walked over with a stern face.

Glancing at Zhang Ke and Sun Chang's shoulder insignia, then at their police badge numbers, she turned the tables and said, "What's going on with your police station? Such a big matter, and only one auxiliary police officer is here to talk to the school? Are you someone who can make decisions? Call your superiors over here!"

Zhang Ke wasn't intimidated at all. He waved the document in his hand and said, "Hehe... a brand new official seal, just stamped this morning. Comrade Principal, you should know the significance and value of a police seal, right?"

"..."

The female principal was speechless.

She really didn't dare to question the weight represented by the bright red five-pointed star.

Zhang Ke didn't torment her. He carefully put away the documents to avoid tearing them and getting beaten up. "Comrade, we need your cooperation with our work. It's just a routine inquiry, so don't worry. You can find someone to guide me. I'll be questioning a few students later. Hehe, this is my first time taking statements from students. It's quite an eye-opener. Why can't they learn to behave? What do you think is the reason, comrade?"

Zhang Ke spoke with a barbed tongue, while Sun Chang covered his mouth and chuckled behind him.

The female principal's face turned ashen.

She realized that ever since last night, this bastard had been looking for trouble at the school. What a pair of scoundrels! Did they really think she was easy to bully?
The female principal left the matter to the head of academic affairs and stormed off in anger.

Even the principal wouldn't dare offend him, so how could the head of the teaching department dare to offend him?

The unfortunate man could only smile wryly and personally lead Zhang Ke into the teaching building.

But to his surprise, Zhang Ke didn't contact anyone.

He simply put on his hat and straightened his clothes, then led the head of student affairs from classroom to classroom, making sure every student saw him and knew that the police were at the school causing trouble. He also wanted all the teachers to know that the police were taking the school's situation very seriously! Please, absolutely, you must keep all the students under control!
The only thing Zhang Ke could do was to let every student witness the majesty of the police and the law up close.

He can't really summon a student individually; that would completely ruin the child.

The balance here is hard to strike, and Nie Guoqiang had given him a long and patient explanation before he set off.

The only hope now is that these teachers who educate and nurture students can understand the good intentions of the police station and realize that they not only receive salaries but also bear responsibilities.

Zhang Ke walked around for two hours, until the students took their lunch break, before finally stopping.

The rest depends on the methods employed by the Baimiao Police Station.

Zhang Ke was exhausted, having to maintain a serious expression throughout.

After leaving the school, he slumped into the passenger seat, not wanting to move at all.

"Thanks a lot."

Sun Chang opened a bottle of mineral water for Zhang Ke.

"Where's Mimi?"

"I don't know, it disappeared somewhere not long after it entered the school."

Sun Chang felt a little embarrassed, as he hadn't even been able to help Zhang Ke with this small favor.

"Never mind, it'll go back on its own anyway."

Zhang Ke composed himself, stared at Sun Chang, and smiled, "Where should we eat lunch? How about coming to my house? I'll show you my cooking skills."

This chapter has been heavily revised. Originally, I wrote more detailed police actions, but I suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and realized that I was probably courting disaster, so I quickly changed it.
