But once they entered the office, Wu Mingcheng realized he had no say at all; Xia Jie directly confronted the group, taking on two opponents single-handedly.
The two of them arrived at the office door and called inside.
"Report,"
Hearing the commotion outside, Wang Shouyi quickly responded.
"Come in,"
Then, he gave Ye Wei a wink, signaling Ye Wei to cooperate with him.
Ye Wei glared at him imperceptibly; she really didn't want to take this kind of job.
After Wu Mingcheng and his companion entered, Wang Shouyi warmly greeted them.
"Come in quickly, sit down. Xiaojie, has your mother returned from your aunt's house yet?"
Xia Jie was speechless after hearing Wang Shouyi's roundabout way of speaking.
"Chief, you just asked about this a few days ago,"
Upon hearing this, Wang Shouyi awkwardly pointed at her.
"Hehe, look at you, you never leave anyone a way out when you speak,"
Wu Mingcheng, watching Wang Shouyi being choked by Xia Jie, found it hilarious and quickly suppressed his laughter.
Xia Jie spoke directly.
"Chief, I'm just an ordinary police officer in the station. Please just tell me what's on your mind."
Hearing Xia Jie's curt tone, Wu Mingcheng quickly said,
"Director, Instructor, Xia Jie means that we still have a lot of work to do and need to get back to it quickly."
Wang Shouyi rubbed his hands together and said,
"Xiao Jie's work ethic is just like the old director's; she's serious and meticulous, which deserves praise."
I called you two here because of that Dr. Wu matter.
As you probably already know, Dr. Wu strongly demands that you two apologize to her in person.
After he finished speaking, he looked at the two of them.
Then, he kept a close eye on Xia Jie's reaction. He knew that the key to winning her over today was Xia Jie.
He quickly gave Ye Wei a wink, signaling him to speak up and persuade Xia Jie.
Even though Ye Wei was unwilling, he had no choice but to speak.
"Xiaojie, Mingcheng, actually neither of you did anything wrong. One of you followed the procedures, and the other stood up for your teammate."
But we've run into someone who's so stubborn, why bother arguing with her?
She now calls 12345 all day long and even goes to the bureau's inspection department to file a complaint.
"It's not for anything else, just for an apology. Please, as a magnanimous person, apologize."
Before Wu Mingcheng could speak, Xia Jie, having already forgotten his earlier instructions, bit her lip and said...
"Instructor, I'll apologize if you want, but please tell me what Xia Jie did wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Shouyi glanced at Ye Wei beside him.
"Look at this child, she has the same temper as her father,"
Ye Wei glanced at him without showing any emotion, thinking to himself, "You old codger, didn't you want him to apologize?"
Then tell me what they did wrong? What? You can't say?
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, feigning seriousness,
"Xia Jie, strictly speaking, your work can't be said to be without flaws."
The person involved is in a state of anxiety because they can't find their child. Your words have touched a nerve.
You could have told her then that the case did not meet the criteria for criminal prosecution.
Xia Jie immediately explained,
"But her child has only been missing for two or three hours, which doesn't meet the criteria for filing a missing person case."
Should I have refused to file a case outright? If that's the case, shouldn't I apologize today?
Ye Wei was immediately stumped by Xia Jie's question. She had no choice but to nitpick.
But Xia Jie did nothing wrong. She acted with reason and evidence, and you can't refute that.
Wang Shouyi quickly tried to smooth things over.
"Xia Jie, you're still young. You think principles are principles, and you feel you have to stick to certain things."
But principles are up to us to implement; only when others also recognize them as principles can they truly be considered principles.
Xia Jie disregarded everything else at that moment and argued her case based on reason.
"Director, I'm young and don't quite understand the grand principles you're talking about. Could you please tell me where I'm wrong?"
Wang Shouyi was also feeling incredibly overwhelmed at this moment.
"You didn't do anything seriously wrong, it's just that she's causing trouble everywhere, making it impossible for the institute and the bureau to work normally."
Do you think it's better for us to swallow our pride, apologize, and ask for peace, or to just let her cause trouble and disrupt the normal work of the institute?
Xia Jie looked at him and said,
"Director, do you mean I've disrupted the normal work of the institute?"
Wang Shouyi said with a wry smile, "(The money is good)."
"Look, that's not what I meant at all. I meant that as a police officer, you encounter all sorts of people, so don't take it personally."
Xia Jie directly retorted,
Are you saying that the public's awareness is low?
After being repeatedly retorted by Xia Jie, Wang Shouyi became somewhat agitated.
"This kid's got the guts to talk back to me. Xia Jie, all I have to do is apologize for the sake of the bureau and the institute. It's just a matter of a word."
Xia Jie stubbornly insisted on mixing.
"I won't apologize, I did nothing wrong,"
Hearing Xia Jie's words, Wang Shouyi felt utterly helpless; there was nothing he could do about her.
He was getting a little angry at this point and directly gave Xia Jie an order.
"Xia Jie, what if the institute orders you to apologize? Don't forget your place."
Chapter 440 Everyone's coming to criticize me?
Xia Jie stood up abruptly at this moment and stated bluntly,
“I will not obey. If the director feels that I have violated the institute's rules or have problems with my work, he can punish me. I will have no complaints.”
But asking me to apologize is impossible. I'm sorry, you can continue with your work; I'm leaving."
After saying that, she got up and left the office.
Watching Xia Jie leave, Wang Shouyi rubbed his forehead, truly at a loss for words.
Then, he looked at Wu Mingcheng standing to the side.
"Mingcheng, stop watching the show from the sidelines. It's none of your business. What are your own thoughts?"
Wu Mingcheng, who was standing to the side, frowned. Only after hearing the director's question did he have a chance to speak.
The three of them were talking so fast-pacedly that he couldn't get a word in edgewise.
He then spoke.
"Director, I understand completely. We are in a time of public scrutiny, and we need to maintain good relations with the people."
However, I don't believe this means that our police officers on August 827th were sacrificing themselves without any moral boundaries.
I know the whole story. Do you two think Xia Jie did anything wrong?
I don't think even you, the director and the instructor, can explain it clearly,"
After hearing Wu Mingcheng's words, Wang Shouyi and Ye Wei sat there silently.
Wu Mingcheng continued,
"Should we just give in to Ms. Wu because she's being unreasonable and making baseless complaints?"
I understand the institute's difficulties, but I cannot understand this approach, and I do not agree with the apology.
Furthermore, I personally believe that police officers are also in a profession that serves the people, and we don't need to compromise with others.
Yes, we are not law enforcers, we are service providers, but we also need to be respected.
After everything that has happened, I really can't agree with the institute's policy of constant appeasement and tolerance.
After saying that, he stood up, stood at attention, and saluted the two of them.
