Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 190 Sudden Robbery
"Brother Shu, grid leader! Let's eat first, let's eat first!" Zhu Chaoran arrived right on time at noon, not just to bring Chen Shu to see the car.

My rumbling stomach won't wait for me.

Everyone went to the grid's cafeteria together.

"Grid leader."

"The grid is long and good."

“Grid leader, Director Chen.”

It was lunchtime, and on their way to the canteen, they ran into several groups of grid service workers who were also heading to the canteen for lunch.

To Chen Shu's surprise, everyone stopped to greet Yan Chenxi as a sign of respect. Even Old Wang, who had initially clashed with her, was now smiling and greeting her from the crowd.

It seems as if the unpleasant things that happened some time ago never happened at all.

Yan Chenxi responded with a calm "Mmm".

His demeanor even carried a hint of the air of someone in a superior position.

Perhaps noticing Chen Shu's surprise, Yan Chenxi took advantage of the turn and turned her head to wink at Chen Shu playfully.

Is this still the same naive young official who was bullied and didn't know what to do? Chen Shu wondered.

The canteen is still the same canteen, and the food is basically the same. However, the hall, which used to have only two dining tables, now has three tables.

Chen Shu, who hadn't eaten in a long time, was hesitating about where to sit when Yan Chenxi pulled him to a table near the window.

Two young female staff members were already seated at the table. When they saw Yan Chenxi pulling Chen Shu over, they quickly stood up to greet them.

“Grid leader, Director Chen.”

After sitting down, Yan Chenxi smiled and chatted with the two of them.

Zhu Chaoran, Xiao Lin, and Xiao Qiang, quite familiar with each other, ran to the window and took seven or eight small bowls that had already been filled with white rice. They placed them on the round table, sat down, and began to eat.

"Eat up." Yan Chenxi nudged Chen Shu gently with her elbow.

Chen Shu picked up his rice bowl and glanced around the cafeteria. He found that the huge cafeteria was packed with people at three tables, and they had only just begun to eat.

They were waiting for Yan Chenxi to arrive before they started eating. Chen Shu secretly glanced at Yan Chenxi sitting next to him.

She sat upright at the table, eating her food slowly in small bites. Her long, black hair was loose, setting off her wheat-colored oval face, exuding a beautiful yet spirited air.

"Eat quickly, we can talk more in the office later." Yan Chenxi noticed Chen Shu's curiosity and leaned over to whisper.

After finishing their meal, Yan Chenxi took Chen Shu to the grid manager's office.

Chen Shu sat on the sofa, patted the wooden armrest, and subconsciously glanced at the stern-faced grid manager sitting opposite him, sighing, "What a big change."

Yan Chenxi knew the other person was implying something, and couldn't help but chuckle as she tried to maintain a serious demeanor: "Well, now my colleagues in the grid are quite respectful of me. It's made my work much easier."

As a graduate of a top-tier university and a selected graduate for government service, Yan Chenxi is actually very intelligent. What she lacks is social experience and grassroots work experience.

Given some time, they adapt very quickly.

Furthermore, after Chen Shu's unintentional endorsement several times, especially after Chen Shu overwhelmingly suppressed the troublemaker Lao Wang, the new grid leader became even more mysterious in the eyes of the other grid members.

Yan Chenxi was also extremely clever. From the words and actions of those around her, she quickly grasped the situation and understood the reasons behind it. Therefore, she increased her unconditional support for the police station within the grid, which further deepened the misunderstanding among the grid members that Chen Shu and Yan Chenxi had a close relationship. Yan Chenxi bent down and took out two cans of vertical Coke from the small refrigerator next to the sofa: "Last time, that fat guy from the KTV came to you to reminisce, and I thought that was the end of it. I didn't expect you to take care of them in the blink of an eye."

Chen Shu took the Coke, his palms feeling slightly cold: "Let's be realistic, things should be done the way they should be. But this fat guy was lucky, he came in late and didn't get involved in any criminal matters. He'll just pay a fine and be out."

Old Wang had initially used this incident to provoke Yan Chenxi, but Chen Shu forcefully suppressed him. Although the matter was outwardly settled, the resentment buried deep within people's hearts was undoubtedly still there.

However, a few days later, several major local media outlets in Dongzhou City reported extensively that EME KTV had been shut down for rectification, and that relevant personnel had been criminally detained or administratively detained. This was a much stronger measure than the usual light fines and warnings issued by the grid management system.

This truly won over everyone in the grid, who were usually unassuming and unassuming, and from then on, they no longer harbored any ulterior motives.

"Ahem!" Yan Chenxi coughed and joked, "According to you, that fat guy should thank you."

"You're welcome." Chen Shu wasn't exactly shy either.

"boom!"

Zhu Chaoran suddenly burst into the office, clutching the walkie-talkie, panting, "Brother Shu! Something's happened in our jurisdiction!"

"What is it? Don't rush, speak slowly?" Chen Shu stood up and walked towards Zhu Chaoran.

"I just heard on the walkie-talkie that a jewelry store on Gaodengqiao Road has been robbed, and the person in question has taken a hostage and is now trapped inside the store!"

"go!"

Chen Shu's pupils suddenly constricted, and without even saying goodbye to Yan Chenxi, he rushed out immediately.

As they entered the police station through the corridor within the grid, Xiaoqiang and Xiaolin were already waiting, equipped with riot shields, riot forks, and other gear.

Without further ado, the group followed Chen Shu and ran towards the police car parked on the side of the road.

As they passed the brand-new electric patrol car, Chen Shu suddenly stopped: "Fatty, what's the fastest speed this car can go?"

“50 is no problem!” Zhu Chaoran immediately replied.

The alley on Gaodengqiao Road is narrow, making it difficult for regular police cars to get in and out. Besides, the area would definitely be packed with people now, except for cases. Chen Shu decisively got into the electric patrol car, with the other three following closely behind.

The electric car was just full.

"go!"

"Wait!" Yan Chenxi, who had followed her, was out of breath. "Chief Chen, wait a minute. Gaodengqiao Road is also in my jurisdiction. I'm going there too."

After catching his breath, he finished speaking, paused for a moment, and then said to Xiaolin, "Xiaolin, go to the grid and call all the men up to this place."

Xiaolin hesitated and looked at Chen Shu.

Yan Chenxi reacted much faster than I expected. At the scene of this kind of crime, people definitely need to disperse the crowd or maintain order. Chen Shu nodded: "Listen to the grid leader, Xiao Lin, you stay and lead the men. We'll go over first."

Xiao Lin took the police car keys from Zhu Chaoran, got off the electric bike, and went to the grid area to call for people.

Yan Chenxi strode to the seat where Xiao Lin had been sitting, gripped the armrests in front of her with both hands, and looked serious and natural.

Chen Shu narrowed his eyes, no longer wasting time.

"go!"
