Then, the group drank and ate hot pot until very late before parting ways.

After the meal, Zheng Yimin arranged for Wu Mingcheng to stay at a guesthouse in the city.

As he was leaving, Zheng Yimin seemed to remember something and said...

"By the way, Mingcheng, Captain Yan, who is also your Uncle Yan, is going to the capital tomorrow."

He can give you a ride back, so you won't have to bother him anymore.

At this moment, Wu Mingcheng remembered and asked,

"I had forgotten about it until you mentioned it. Why haven't I seen my Uncle Yan today?"

Zheng Yimin then said,

"Something important happened at the Criminal Investigation Division. He's been extremely busy today and hasn't shown up at the station. He's been working outside the whole time."

Wu Mingcheng nodded and said,

"Okay, Uncle Zheng, I understand."

Upon arriving at his room at the guesthouse, Wu Mingcheng quickly washed up and then lay down on the bed to rest.

The next morning, he was still thinking about buying snacks for his mother.

So he got up early and went to the old-established restaurant from the previous night.

Besides the portion he bought for his mother, he also bought a lot more, intending to let Da Zeng, Zheng Yimin, and the others try it.

He arrived at the police station carrying the snacks he had bought, but the police station was already open for business.

This time, the police officers on duty at the gate recognized Wu Mingcheng and did not stop him.

He went straight upstairs to Ma Hongbin's office, knocked on the door, and then pushed it open and went inside.

Upon entering, Wu Mingcheng saw Ma Hongbin sitting at his desk, handling official business.

So he stepped forward and said,

"Uncle Ma, I bought some pastries from that old shop in the south of the city. They were just made this morning, so they're especially fresh. I bought some for you to try."

Ma Hongbin pointed at Wu Mingcheng and said,

"You little rascal, you haven't even started working at the 5th or 6th Bureau of the city yet, and you've already learned how to bribe your superiors. This kind of behavior is unacceptable!"

Wu Mingcheng knew Ma Hongbin was joking with him, and said with a smile,

"Uncle Ma, it's just a little snack, how much will it cost?"

This is just a small token of my appreciation; it's not real money, so how can it be considered a bribe?

Ma Hongbin spoke up.

"It's been a long time since I've had any of that famous old-fashioned pastries, I'll give it a try."

Ma Hongbin picked up a small piece of pastry and put it in his mouth, nodding repeatedly.

"Mmm, it still tastes the same, not bad, delicious,"

Then, Wu Mingcheng continued,

"Uncle Ma, I'll be riding back in my Uncle Yan's car later."

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongbin nodded and said...

"Well, Lao Yan happens to have some business in the capital, so he can take you back while he's at it."

As for the reporting date, I estimate it will be in two or three days. Get ready.

The department will look into it; another batch of new officers will be joining later.

Your situation is somewhat special, so you may need to start working first.

"If you graduate then, you can take some time to go back and attend the graduation ceremony."

Wu Mingcheng then nodded and said,

"Okay, Uncle Ma, I understand. I'll head out now and not bother you any longer."

Then, Wu Mingcheng left Ma Hongbin's office and went to the Sixth Major Crimes Unit.

Wu Mingcheng placed the snacks on the table. Upon seeing Wu Mingcheng, Ji Jie got up and walked towards him.

Wu Mingcheng then said,

"Aunt Ji Jie, I bought some snacks for everyone. I don't know everyone very well, so why don't you invite everyone to eat together?"

Ji Jie glanced at the pastries wrapped in kraft paper and asked,

"These snacks aren't cheap at 16, you've spent too much again,"

Ji Jie and Hu Ping were best friends, and Ji Jie indirectly knew about Wu Mingcheng's financial situation, so she didn't say anything.

Upon seeing this, Wu Mingcheng said,

"It wasn't much money,"

Upon hearing this, Ji Jie smiled slightly. It seemed this young man really was a nouveau riche, just as Hu Ping had said.

Then, she said with a smile,

"I haven't had breakfast yet, so I'll just have a few bites."

Then, she called to her team members in the office and said loudly,

"Old Zheng, Da Zeng, Jiang Han, and you guys, come here quickly, this handsome young man is treating you to something delicious."

"These are from that old, well-established pastry shop in the south of the city; if you go too late, you won't be able to get any!"

Several girls in the group gathered around and each picked up a snack to try.

A little girl asked tentatively,

"Are you Wu Mingcheng, the top student from the People's Public Security University of China?"

Wu Mingcheng was caught off guard and blurted out instinctively,

"Ah, it's me,"

The little girl immediately spoke to the girls next to her.

"See? I told you I'd seen his photos online."

Several girls immediately surrounded Wu Mingcheng, and then they started talking all at once.

"Mingcheng, handsome guy, we like you so much! We're your biggest fans!"

"Yes, we even made a poster for you."

"Several of my classmates saw you during the National Skills Competition,"

...................................................

Ji Jie, witnessing this scene, shook her head and smiled wryly. She really couldn't do anything about these girls.

Jiang Han said from the side,

"Is Mingcheng that popular?"

Ji Jie turned her head and glanced at him, then burst into laughter.

Zheng Yimin and Da Zeng came out of the team leader's office and, seeing this scene, said curiously,

"What's going on?"

Ji Jie said with a smile,

"I met my idol; to put it simply, I was a fan."

Zheng Yimin then grunted, which the girls noticed, and then said...

"Team leader, we've finally run into the God of War, can you let us take a group photo?"

Zheng Yimin had no choice but to wave his hand and say,

"Alright, hurry up and take the picture. This is during working hours; it won't be good if the inspection department sees it."

The girls took a group photo with Wu Mingcheng before reluctantly leaving his side.

Zheng Yimin said in confusion,

"Mingcheng, what's going on with this Martial God?"

Wu Mingcheng couldn't help but chuckle as he said,

"Martial God is just a nickname they gave me,"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Yimin finally realized what was happening and said...

“These young people nowadays are so flashy, they're different from us,”

Then, he looked at the pastries on the table and said,

"Wow, who's so generous as to treat our whole group to snacks?"

Da Zeng also spoke up from the side.
