How come I'm invincible?

Chapter 24 All I Want Now is to Improve

The next day, at dawn, as the first rays of the rising sun enveloped the earth, a figure holding an iron rod was seen practicing in the courtyard, facing the rising sun.

His staff moved with the force of thunder, his body like a dragon, and every move he made exuded the grandeur of a master that no one in the world today could match.

[Thousand-Pound Staff Technique Proficiency +1]

The law exam is over.

He used the time he would have spent studying the law to practice his staff techniques.

Whenever proficiency increases.

One's own strength increases by one point.

After an unknown amount of time, a series of hurried footsteps accompanied by excited shouts came from behind.

"It's a hit! It's a hit!"

Zhao Er rushed in, excitedly saying, "Brother, the results from the local government are out! You're on the list, ranking first with the highest score!"

Anyone who heard this would surely burst into laughter, but Lin Fan remained calm and composed. He swept away the enemy with a single move, stirring up a cloud of dust on the ground before slowly retracting his staff and exhaling a scorching breath.

"Anything else?" Lin Fan asked.

"Everyone should report to the Public Security Bureau this afternoon."

"Hmm, go find a stick to help me cultivate."

First place in scores!

This was entirely expected.

Considering all the effort he's put in during this time, getting up earlier than the chickens and going to bed later than the dogs, he was completely oblivious to everything else when he was in private school, focusing solely on listening to the teacher's boasting.

Three months, a full three months.

He just wanted to ask.

Who can stop them?

The most joyful thing for him is that his planned goals are being realized step by step. People must have plans; it is impossible to succeed without them. When he was a lowly henchman at Zhongyi Hall, even when he was starving, he would save money to study law at a private school, all for the sake of today.

Entering the prefectural government office is like stepping onto another springboard.

This means he has taken another step closer to understanding the path of martial arts.

……

in the afternoon.

When Lin Fan appeared at the gate of the government office, there were already people waiting. They all came forward to greet him when they saw him.

"Master Lin."

"Mr. Lin, from now on we'll be colleagues, so please take good care of me."

He took one of the five available positions in the prefecture, and the remaining four were filled by people of different backgrounds. But regardless of their backgrounds, they all knew a great deal about Lin Fan.

A rising star in the Yong'an City gangs, his reputation is astonishing.

Regardless of his identity, his skill in this area alone commands respect from many.

Regardless of their family background, if you were to run into them on the street one day and they wanted to beat you up, no matter how many people were around you, they wouldn't be able to stop you.

"From now on, we'll be colleagues. Just call me by my name. I can't accept the title 'Master Lin'," Lin Fan said modestly with a smile.

"Not at all. Master Lin earned his reputation in the battles at Cuijing Tower and the shantytown. Who in Yong'an City doesn't know Master Lin's fame?"

Those who can enter the prefectural government are all shrewd and capable.

If you had truly believed Lin Fan's self-deprecating words and addressed him by his name, you wouldn't be here today.

As they chatted, a constable came out and beckoned for them to follow.

After passing through several corridors, the group was led to a secluded courtyard.

People had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time.

Lin Fan immediately recognized Song Qing and Yang Ming, as well as the middle-aged man who had supervised the exam—this man was standing in the main seat, clearly indicating that he held a high position in the government.

Beside him stood another man with a cold face and piercing eyes. He had already scrutinized everyone as they entered, and his gaze towards Lin Fan was particularly unfriendly.

Lin Fan and Song Qing exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.

Once everyone had stopped, Song Qing stepped forward and solemnly said:
"You have all passed the legal examination administered by the Public Security Bureau. From this day forward, you are all members of the Public Security Bureau." The middle-aged man continued, his voice steady: "The Public Security Bureau bears heavy responsibilities. I hope you will all remember the law, act impartially, and any negligence will be severely punished."

He then introduced Song Qing and the cold-faced man beside him.

"These two are Song Qing, the squad leader, and Chen Xingzhi, the squad leader. You may choose one of them to work for."

Those who were able to enter the Security Bureau had already thoroughly investigated the situation here.

They knew that the two squad leaders were two extremes.

There's absolutely no way to make money following Song Qing. Besides, Song Qing has offended many people and is ostracized in the police station. In the past, when it came to arresting criminals, they couldn't even get anyone to come. Even if they were called in, they would secretly slack off.

Chen Bantou, on the other hand, has extensive connections and is expected to be promoted to clerk.

Soon, everyone made their choices. The four decisively chose Chen Xingzhi, leaving only Lin Fan. When he learned that this guy's surname was Chen, he knew that this might be the uncle Chen Liang had mentioned who worked in the government office.

I didn't expect it to be the class monitor.

As for why Chen Liang did not participate in this law exam.

It seems that the incident at Cuijing Tower caused the other party great psychological trauma.

Think of this.

Lin Fan walked to Song Qing's side and stood to one side, his meaning clear: he chose Song, the squad leader.

"Ah."

The middle-aged man nodded. This choice was everyone's own. It seemed unfair, but it didn't matter. He was too lazy to say more. After giving Song Qing and Chen Xingzhi a few instructions, he turned and left.

"Respectfully seeing off Clerk Li."

Song Qing and Chen Xingzhi bowed to each other.

Lin Fan and the others bowed respectfully to see them off.

It turned out that this guy was actually a clerk, but for some reason, he had a strange feeling that the other party seemed to be indifferent to the disputes in the prefecture.

After Li Dianshi left, Yang Ming ran to Lin Fan with a big smile, "Brother Lin, from now on we're colleagues. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me."

Lin Fan laughed and said, "Don't call me brother anymore. You're a formal government official now, while I'm still a commoner."

"No, please don't. Brother Lin is Brother Lin. What's all this formality? In my heart, Brother Lin is the best." Yang Ming didn't dare to show off in front of Lin Fan.

This is something that gives him a sense of security.

They haven't even gotten a good grip on him yet.

Lin Fan smiled but didn't say anything more.

Chen Xingzhi led his men away, but after only a few steps, he stopped, turned to look at Lin Fan, and said with a seemingly smiling but actually warning tone, "Lin Fan, Master Lin? The Security Bureau is the Security Bureau, not a mixed bag like the Loyalty Hall. Here, you need to know the hierarchy and the rules. But it's okay, if you don't understand, you can learn slowly. Someone will teach you."

After saying that, he left immediately.

The four newly recruited commoner constables glanced at Lin Fan and understood that they would have to keep their distance from him from now on.

This kid is probably going to have a hard time getting by in the government office from now on.

After Chen left, Yang Ming said with dissatisfaction, "What's with the arrogance? That Chen guy is no good."

……

A jail cell.

Just like a department in a company, this was the place where Song Qing and Yang Ming handled cases. With Lin Fan joining, the number of officers increased.

There are three people now.

They are no longer the two lonely people they once were.

at this time.

Lin Fan reached out and gently stroked the neatly folded uniform, as if he were caressing a woman.

done.

We've finally made it this far.

At that moment, only one thought echoed in his mind.

"Right now, I'm only thinking about making progress."
