America, starting as a trainee police officer

Li Wei then showed his police badge (which the police station had returned to him when he was reinstated yesterday).

Upon seeing the LAPD badge, the credibility of Levi's words instantly jumped from 10% to 100%.

The airport police officer then released his hand from the butt of his gun.

"Really? Him? A newbie?"

"Well, some people only realize their true calling when they're middle-aged, don't they?" Li Wei chuckled.

"Hey Li, did you even consider my feelings when you said that? Are you implying I'm old?!"

Nolan was joking, but the misunderstanding was cleared up.

After the police left, Nolan and Levi stood side by side, looking at the pickup truck whose keys were locked inside.

"What do we do now?" Nolan rubbed his temples, looking exasperated.

Li Wei shrugged. Although he and Steve had learned a few lock-picking techniques, he hadn't systematized the skills.

Even if you give him lock-picking tools, he can probably only open the simplest locks.

There's nothing I can do to help.

"dad?"

At that moment, a slightly childish voice rang out behind the two of them.

Nolan turned around, a happy smile spreading across his face, and opened his arms wide: "Henry!"

He gave his son a big hug.

What are you doing here?

Henry gave his father a warm hug, then looked at Nolan and Levi with some confusion.

...

Police station.

"Luckily, I still have your car's spare key with me, otherwise the car would have been left at the airport."

Henry, carrying large and small bags, walked into the LAPD building with Nolan Levy.

"Well, you guys keep chatting, I'm going to change my clothes first."

Seeing that the father and son still had something to say, Li Wei patted Nolan on the shoulder and left.

Half an hour later, in the conference room.

Roll call time.

Gray stood on the podium, smiling as he looked at the police officers in blue uniforms below.

"All right! Cheer up! Cheer up!"

He clapped his hands.

"Officer Nolan, are you ready?"

"Yes, Sir!" Nolan nodded.

Seeing this, Gray smiled slightly: "Very good. Now, answer this question: What is your favorite part of being a police officer?"

After a pause, Gray crossed his arms and said, "Don't give me any platitudes about making society better."

"Oh...that's what I was going to say, but I really meant it, I wasn't just saying it half-heartedly."

Nolan is a bit dull.

He looks very honest.

Li Wei knew that he genuinely believed it; this old guy was the kindest person imaginable.

Unlike Lucy and Bishop, who seem nice but are actually selfish and foolish sanctimonious hypocrites.

Hearing Nolan's answer, Gray was a little speechless: "And what's your second favorite?"

"Oh, this is much easier, let's write the report!"

Nolan had just finished answering when the conference room door was pushed open.

Zoe's appearance caused most people to gasp in surprise.

Imagine how I would feel!

The reason is simple: Zoe, a police inspector and captain, was wearing a blue LAPD uniform today.

This means that she will be patrolling the streets with them today.

This is a big deal.

Seeing everyone making a fuss, Zoe waved her hand: "Alright, alright! Most of the superintendents are just handling documents and reports. Because of this, I feel like I'm losing sight of what it's really like to be a police officer."

"Feel the people. The word 'people' doesn't just refer to the citizens that the police swear to protect and serve, but also includes every one of you in this room."

"Therefore, I've decided to join Superintendent Gray on patrol today."

Below the stage, Li Wei listened to Zoe's somewhat bureaucratic speech.

It sounded fake, but he knew Zoe was serious.

This woman has certainly put her words into action.

She's truly dedicated when there's trouble.

"You two together?" Tim asked at this point.

"No, we each partnered with different rookies. And the rookie instructors were paired with each other for duty."

Zoe shook her head on stage.

Hearing her say that, West, coming from a family of police officers, had a keen political sense. If he could ride in the same car as the police commissioner, it would be a highlight of his resume.

He immediately raised his hand: "Sir, it would be my honor to ride in the same police car as you!"

Seeing West's quick and normal reaction, Zoe and Gray on stage exchanged a smile.

"Officer West, that's very kind of you. But today I'll be riding in the same patrol car as Officer Lee."

After saying that, Zoe looked at Levi, who was sitting below with his hands crossed and little expression on his face.

Li Wei was a little surprised to be called out.

He originally thought Zoe would choose Chen.

West looked at Levi with surprise.

He doesn't have any bad intentions. Although he comes from a family of police officers, he's actually quite simple-minded.

It was just a simple accident.

"Superintendent Gray! It would be my honor if you rode in the same patrol car as Officer West today!"

Upon hearing Nolan's words, everyone burst into laughter.

The patrol department was aware of Gray's special affection for Nolan.

"Nolan, that's a cute thing to say. But you should know, my heart is with you!"

As he spoke, Gray walked up to Nolan, crossed his arms, and looked at him.

Although he had already guessed that he would receive a demerit, Nolan still wore a bitter expression: "I'm really lucky."

...

The group came out of the conference room.

"Rookies, you have a heavy burden on your shoulders today." Tim looked at Levi and Nolan with a hint of schadenfreude.

"What? What makes you say that?" Nolan is a good person, but he's not very politically astute.

"Riding with a police superintendent means taking on a heavy responsibility. If something happens to the superintendent, well..."

After saying that, Bishop glanced at Li Wei.

Things were even more complicated for Li Wei, and Bishop watched him with schadenfreude.

"It might be impossible to resolve this situation."

Bradford, standing nearby, thought for a moment and decided to give Levi a heads-up:

"Let me tell you, if Inspector Anderson gets even a minor scratch, you'll be sent to work in Hilma's vehicle management department until you die from carbon monoxide poisoning."

At the equipment distribution point, Li Wei carried two tactical backpacks on his back and held two shotguns in his hands.

One live bullet and one rubber bullet.

...

West Hollywood, in front of a big house.

The police car stopped.

We received a case involving a domestic dispute.

Zoe brought Levi here.

"Police! Is anyone home?" Li Wei shouted as he reached the door.

No one answered from inside the house; only a heated argument could be heard.

I glanced at the gate; it wasn't closed.

Li Wei looked at Zoe, exchanged a glance with her, then placed one hand on the pistol at his waist and pushed open the door with the other.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw a man and a woman arguing loudly.

They were babbling in some unknown language.

It doesn't sound like Spanish.

Bang! A vase was smashed on the ground by the man, leaving ceramic shards scattered everywhere.

"Hehehehe!!! Hey! That's enough!"

Zoe stepped in and stopped the two from arguing any further.

"Should we call a translator, Captain?"
