Intelligence updates daily; I achieve sainthood in the martial arts of the public service.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Tu Yuan put on his police uniform.

Before leaving home, I checked today's intelligence report as usual.

[Xu Zhanqing, an instructor at Zhenghe Police Station, has a mother who is seriously ill. To treat her, Xu Zhanqing seeks help from Shen Xin, the deputy director of Zhenghe Police Station. Shen Xin then finds his father, Shen Yongli, the deputy mayor of Shengyun City, to help arrange a consultation with hospital specialists.]

Upon seeing this intelligence report, Tu Yuan's heart skipped a beat.

Shen Xin's father is actually Shen Yongli, the deputy mayor of Shengyun City?!

Shen Yongli's responsibilities cover areas such as health, healthcare, medical security, and education in Shengyun City.

Therefore, Shen Yongli's words carry a lot of weight at the hospital.

"Xu Zhanqing has always been very close to the director of Zhenghe Police Station, Zhang Tao, and can be said to be a staunch supporter of the director."

"But now Xu Zhanqing has actually turned to Shen Xin for help. So, after Shen Xin arrives at Zhenghe Police Station, whose side will he ultimately take?!"

Tu Yuan already had the answer in his heart.

"I'm afraid Director Zhang is unaware of this matter."

"After taking office, Shen Xin not only became close to Sun Guangrong, but also won over Teacher Si Xu Zhanqing."

"Of the five leaders in the institute, only Zheng Hai is now on Director Zhang's side!"

"With the support of Sun Guangrong and Xu Zhanqing, Shen Xin could not accept that his power would be greatly suppressed by Zhang Tao."

"Then the Zhenghe Police Station will likely see a lot of fighting."

"What opportunities will I get from this?!"

"Shen Xin's father is the deputy mayor, and Wang Qiang, who is behind Sun Guangrong, also has connections in the municipal bureau."

"And Director Zhang is Chen Lei, the deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and may also have the support of Deputy Mayor Gong."

"Actually, if you only look at the forces behind them, the two sides are not that different in strength."

"Therefore, the forces at the top are relatively balanced, and the struggles at the bottom will most likely be limited to the scope of fighting without breaking apart."

"When there is conflict, some positions in the office will change, and that's when vacancies will appear."

"If the upper echelons are stable, there are actually fewer opportunities for advancement."

"So this is not a bad thing for me, but rather a good thing."

Thinking of this, Tu Yuan immediately sent a message to Li He.

Then they rushed to Zhenghe Police Station.

After arriving at the police station, Tu Yuan went to the canteen for breakfast as usual.

Then I went to my workstation.

He practiced until six o'clock last night, and then took a short nap for an hour and a half.

Although I only slept for an hour and a half, I felt full of energy.

Aside from muscle soreness and fatigue, there wasn't much else wrong.

When Tu Yuan arrived at his desk, Ma Xiaolian was also there, and it seemed that she had been there for a while.

However, Ma Xiaolian looked somewhat distressed.

Tu Yuan did not ask Ma Xiaolian what had happened.

He saw a number of scratch-off lottery tickets in the trash can next to Ma Xiaolian's seat.

Judging from the looks of it, Ma Xiaolian bought at least a whole book of scratch-off lottery tickets.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to fill the trash can so full.

Ma Xiaolian must have seen him win the lottery and use the potion to break through to become a martial artist, so he wanted to try his luck too.

But Tu Yuan knew in his heart that it wasn't luck at all.

How could anyone possibly make money from something that's gambling and entertainment?

Do they really think the Federal Citizens Lottery is a charity?

Ma Xiaolian's expression at this moment proves this point.

At that moment, a second-level police officer with five stars on his epaulettes passed by Tu Yuan's office.

He greeted Tu Yuan with a smile:

Good morning, Tu Yuan!

"Want to go out for a smoke together?"

Although Tu Yuan doesn't smoke, he thought this was an opportunity to get closer to Tu Yuan.

Moreover, Ma Xiaolian looked miserable standing to the side, and he seemed quite uncomfortable sitting there.

He then stood up with a smile and said:

"Okay, Brother Zhou!"

After saying that, Tu Yuan walked out of the office with him.

Ma Xiaolian watched the two laughing and talking as they walked away.

His eyes were filled with confusion and shock.

The Zhou brother who asked Tu Yuan to go out with him was named Zhou Shucheng, and his police rank was second-level police officer.

Furthermore, he possesses the strength of a second-stage martial artist.

More importantly, Zhou Shucheng is one of the director's confidants.

His status in the security team was second only to the team leader and deputy team leader.

Even when Sun Guangrong held great power, Captain He, the security team leader promoted by Sun Guangrong, spoke to Zhou Shucheng with great politeness.

Zhou Shucheng also had great prestige in the security team.

Many police officers tried to get closer to him, but Zhou Shucheng generally ignored them.

They mostly speak in a businesslike tone.

But just now, Zhou Shucheng actually took the initiative to greet Tu Yuan.

Moreover, Zhou Shucheng's tone was quite polite. If you didn't know better, you would definitely think that Tu Yuan and Zhou Shucheng were on the same level!

Ma Xiaolian was very puzzled. Even if Tu Yuan had broken through to become a martial artist, Zhou Shucheng shouldn't have treated him like this, right?

He couldn't understand why.

It doesn't make sense in terms of ability, but what if the two have a relationship in private?

How could a regular police officer like He Chengjun have dared to treat Tu Yuan with such a condescending attitude?

Watching the two figures disappear through the doorway.

There was envy in Ma Xiaolian's eyes, and a hint of jealousy that he himself didn't even realize!

At 9:30 a.m., Zhang Tao gathered everyone in the courtyard of the police station.

All police officers who were not on duty, as well as those in civil affairs and logistics, stood at attention in the courtyard in a line.

Tu Yuan was also standing in the queue.

The reason for this gathering was the arrival of the new deputy director, Shen Xin. Zhang Tao gathered everyone to welcome the new deputy director.

At this moment, Shen Xin stood on the steps in front, his gaze sweeping over the police officers standing in line below with a faint air of arrogance.

Shen Xin has thick eyebrows, fair skin, and soft facial features, giving him a gentle and refined appearance.

His police uniform shoulder insignia featured six stars, displaying his rank as a third-class police officer.

A 24-year-old Level 3 police officer, who is also the deputy director of the police station, possesses the strength of a Level 1 martial artist, and has a powerful family background.

She's not bad-looking.

This caused the female police officers in the queue to look at Shen Xin with a strange glint in their eyes.

Shen Xin naturally felt the intense gazes of the female police officers. He smiled slightly, his arrogance growing even stronger.

His gaze was already scanning among the female police officers.

I'm looking to see if there's anyone whose looks catch my eye.

At this moment, Zhang Tao, who was standing in front of Shen Xin, said a few polite words.

Then they asked Shen Xin to speak to everyone.

After giving a brief self-introduction and a few words of encouragement, Shen Xin stopped talking.

Tu Yuan looked at the positions of Zhang Tao, Sun Guangrong, Zheng Hai, Shen Xin, and Instructor Xu Zhanqing in front of him.

It's clear that they've split into two camps.

Zheng Hai and Xu Zhanqing stood to Zhang Tao's left, while Sun Guangrong and Shen Xin stood to Zhang Tao's right.

Tu Yuan observed that Xu Zhanqing's expression seemed somewhat unnatural.

While Zhang Tao was speaking, Sun Guangrong looked at Zhang Tao with a cold gaze, and there seemed to be a hint of mockery in his eyes.

It was as if they were preparing to see Zhang Tao make a fool of himself.

Seeing this, Tu Yuan understood that Shen Xin's first act as the new official was about to begin.
