At that moment, Hogg was in the police station, surrounded by some colleagues and Ada, among others. His badge had been changed to Sergeant.

Chen An was also surprised to see this.

I wondered if Hogg had been promoted so quickly.

He became a sheriff; it was truly a miracle.

However, considering that Hogg has solved many major cases and even seized a lot of drugs since joining the police force, it's not impossible for him to make an exception once.

No wonder Ada held a party; such a feat is indeed worth celebrating. Chen An was also very happy. Hogg's promotion also meant that his status in Los Angeles had risen!

Hogg could do many things for him, and even send some more assassins into the police station, led by Hogg, which would be equivalent to having a small team within the police station that obeyed his orders. Just thinking about it was exciting.

Unless it's a major issue, Hogg can handle most minor matters.

Before we knew it, it was six o'clock in the evening.

There was a sudden knock on the door. Emily went to open it and saw Ida standing outside. Ida didn't go in, but instead said, "Chen An, let's go. It's about to begin."

"Coming!" Chen An's voice rang out, and then he walked over slowly. "Officer Ada, good evening."

"Get in the car, the party starts in ten minutes." Ada said as she walked to a Bentley parked not far away, opened the door and got into the driver's seat.

Chen An and Emily sat in the back seat.

Ada then drove the vehicle slowly away from the Ralph neighborhood and headed to the restaurant where the gathering was taking place.

After a few minutes' drive, they successfully arrived at a restaurant in downtown Los Angeles. It was very luxurious, with a large number of pedestrians on the street, and huge electronic screens playing various videos. Neon lights were flashing, making it seem like a city that never sleeps!

The three got off the bus.

Ada glanced at the time and said, "Everyone should be here by now, Chen An."

"it is good."

Before long, they entered the restaurant and took the elevator to a private room on the third floor. Ida pushed the door open and went in.

Chen An followed suit.

Upon entering the private room, he quickly glanced around and locked onto several figures: Hogg, Director Brand, Eve, and his sister Chen Wan.

"Brother, you're here!" Chen Wan waved.

Chen An smiled and said, "Hello everyone, thank you for waiting."

"Brother Chen, please sit down! We've saved a seat for you," Eve greeted him warmly. Upon seeing this, he stepped forward and sat down in the empty seat between Eve and his sister.

Ada sat next to Brand.

As for the others, he didn't know them at all; they were probably all people from the police station or people who had a good relationship with Chief Brand.

"Chen An, your security company has become quite famous lately. I've even heard some news about it from my friends," Brand said, looking at him.

Chen An said, "I told you, I would never let you down, Director Brand. Now you can rest assured."

"I'm relieved for now. Having another security company will help reduce the crime rate in Los Angeles. Plus, those gangsters seem to have been quiet lately, which is a bit unusual."

"That's good, then you won't have to work so hard," Eve said, puzzled.

Brand shook his head. "Let's not talk about that. Now that everyone's here, let's serve the food. Today we're congratulating Hogg on his promotion to First Sergeant. That's the fastest promotion I've ever seen!"

Ida murmured, "He's almost catching up to me, Hogg, well done!"

"Not at all, not at all, it's all what I should do," Hogg replied modestly.

"Hogg, I heard that you were the one who took care of that sniper last time, so I brought a gift to thank you." Chen An said, handing over the gift he had prepared.

Hogg reached out and accepted the money. "Thank you, Mr. Chen. It's what I should do. Protecting the citizens of Los Angeles is my responsibility."

clap clap clap!

Chen An clapped his hands, "He truly deserves to be called a good police officer in Los Angeles, always serving the citizens."

Seeing this, the others also took out their own gifts, which, although not expensive, were a token of their goodwill.

The group then began drinking and chatting. Gradually, Chen An got to know these people better. Indeed, most of them were colleagues, and there were also a few friends.

"Brother Chen An, this is quite delicious, you should try it." Eve picked up a piece of meat and put it into Chen An's bowl.

"Thank you." Chen An didn't think much of it and started eating. "Mmm! It's really good."

Upon seeing this, Brandon's expression shifted slightly, and he said, "Chen An, I've called you here today because I have something to discuss with you."

Chen An stopped chewing and looked over: "Director Brandon, just say what's wrong. With our relationship, I'll definitely help you if I can."

"That's right, you guessed correctly. Recently, someone has been targeting Eve and is planning to make another move. Fortunately, the security guards did their best to protect her, so she is safe."

"But recently their attacks have become increasingly rampant, so I want to ask S.H.I.E.L.D. security companies to send people to protect my daughter, and I want top-notch security."

After hearing this, Chen An calmly replied, "Director Brandon, you've come to the right person. Handing it over to S.H.I.E.L.D. security company will definitely be fine."

"Chen An, things may not be as simple as you think. I had already hired four-star security personnel from Cobra Security Company before this, but they were still at a loss. Some people were even injured while covering for us and have not yet been discharged from the hospital."

Upon hearing this, Chen An was also very curious about who Brandon had offended, and why that person would target Eve. Was there some connection between them?

He thought so.

Chen An said, "Director Brandon, I think you should investigate who you've offended and who's behind your back, otherwise you'll always be on the defensive."

"I investigated with all my might, but unfortunately, I have no clue whatsoever."

Upon hearing Brandon's reply, Chen An smiled and said, "That's perfect, Chief Brandon. I actually know a detective agency; they might be able to uncover some clues."

Ada exclaimed in surprise, "Chen An, how do you know everyone?!"

"Officer Ada, you don't know this, do you? I have many friends in my country, so of course I've made many friends here as well," Chen An said.

Brandon asked somewhat uncertainly, "Chen An, does that detective agency you know really have a solution?"

"Of course, but the cost might be a bit high. As for the fee for sending someone to protect Eve, we'll waive it; consider it repayment for your guarantee for me."

"Don't worry, with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s top security personnel on board, Eve will no longer be in danger." Chen An's words greatly improved Brandon's impression of him.

"No problem, as long as your detective agency can find clues, I'll pay you," Brandon said.

"Who are the top security personnel at S.H.I.E.L.D.?" Ada suddenly asked.
