Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 605 Infernal Affairs?
The group entered the conference room. Chen Shu asked Li Chaoyang to first dismiss the case-handling team from Zhongshan Police Station that had gathered that night, and let the auxiliary police officers go home after get off work. Then he invited the remaining two police officers from the police station to the conference room for a late-night snack.

He himself took out a walkie-talkie and ordered all the members of the special police brigade who were dispatched that night to return to their posts. However, after giving the order, he did not mention what to do after the members returned to the special police compound, nor did he ask Chen Chuan or Zhu Yiba, who were police officers, to go out and lead the team.

These two details caught Zhu Yiba's attention.

During this time, Zhao Feifei stormed into the meeting room, slammed the heavy walkie-talkie in front of Chen Shu, and started cursing as soon as she opened her mouth, ignoring Li Chaoyang who was transmitting the order to disband and arrange the next day's duties to his subordinates via mobile phone.

"Chen Shu, I'll f*** you! You need to explain this to me clearly! I spent half the night in this stinking van, and you just called it quits? Is this how you led this operation?"

The atmosphere on the scene immediately became tense.

Putting aside the fact that Zhao Feifei is known for her explosive temper in the bureau, the anger of a captain of the public security brigade alone is something that ordinary police officers cannot withstand.

Her voice was filled with anger and disbelief, and her gaze swept fiercely over the other police officers in the conference room before finally fixing firmly on Chen Shu.

"I, Zhao Feifei, have been working in public security for so many years, but this is the first time I've come back empty-handed. I can't afford to lose face like this in the station!"

"What a joke! This is utterly absurd! Even if there's no prostitution involved, surely there's some paid companionship, right? Are you just going to give up like this?"

Zhao Feifei's voice grew louder and louder as she slammed her hand on the table, the dull thud shattering the silence in the office like a bomb.

Li Chaoyang quickly whispered a few instructions and hung up the phone. He then picked up a few A4 sheets of paper that someone had left on the table and began to read them carefully.
Knowing how formidable and capable Sister Man was, Chen Chuan dared not tease her as usual. He huddled in a corner without saying a word, rubbing his eyes as if he was exhausted.

Zhu Yiba, on the other hand, kept his eyes down, intently staring at the ceiling, as if a wonderful movie was being projected onto the ceiling above him.

Chen Shu, on the other hand, laughed as if nothing had happened.

He got up, walked to the door, gently closed it, and then locked the door behind him.

Chen Shu looked at her with a half-smile: "Sister Feifei, don't get agitated. The operation has been cancelled, but that doesn't mean we're abandoning it. If we don't check today, we can check tomorrow. If we're busy tomorrow, we can choose the day after. Don't worry, since we've decided to sweep, we won't give up halfway."

You can't hit someone who's smiling. Since it was decided beforehand that Chen Shu would be in charge of leading and commanding this operation, Zhao Feifei couldn't find a legitimate reason to object.

If this case is simply a matter of investigation, then Chen Shu's statement is not wrong. It's impossible to proceed without evidence, as this would not only alert the suspects but also damage the morale of one's own side.

However, she had previously sought credit with her former boss, Director Ma, which was tantamount to signing a pledge. Although Director Ma hadn't contacted her unilaterally yet, Zhao Feifei knew perfectly well that he was currently waiting for her good news in his office.

Otherwise, according to the schedule at the beginning of the month, it was not his turn to be on duty until the day after tomorrow. Why would Director Ma's name appear on the list of duty bureau leaders on the large LED screen on the first floor of the branch office tonight?
Zhao Feifei, feeling like the sword of Damocles was hanging over her head, stared at Chen Shu, speechless for a long time, truly both angry and anxious.

Chen Shu pointed to the empty chair and reassured her, "Sister Feifei, I just ordered a lot of takeout. Judging by the time, it should be delivered soon. Let's eat and chat."

Zhao Feifei snorted coldly, pulled out a chair, and plopped down in it.

The atmosphere in the conference room finally eased a bit. Zhu Yiba, who had been staring at the ceiling, rubbed his sore neck and slowly looked down. He inadvertently glanced at Chen Shuzheng standing by the door, turning the locked door open.

This?
Previously, Li Chaoyang had dismissed the auxiliary police officers at the police station, but he left two investigating officers behind to summon them to the meeting room. This served two purposes: to make the auxiliary officers clearly understand that tonight's operation was definitely canceled, and to sever communication between the police officers and the auxiliary officers.
Then, the special police team members were ordered to return to their unit, but no instructions were given on whether they would stay or be dismissed and go home after returning to the unit, leaving the team members with the possibility that they might have to return to the sweep. Meanwhile, the hot-tempered security captain was left behind, and the message was that no case would be handled tonight, but a sweep of A_PARTY would be carried out again in the next few days.

Finally, the police officers who had been in positions of authority during the operation were gathered in the conference room for a late-night snack, meaning they were all placed under Chen Shu's watchful eye.

According to Li Chaoyang's previous statement, the operation may have been exposed, which is why even the usual paid companionship at A_PARTY has stopped.

Zhu Yiba vaguely felt that he had grasped Chen Shu's unusual way of thinking, but he couldn't express it clearly in words.

After frowning and thinking for a long time, he admitted to himself that he wasn't cut out for this, but he also missed the simplicity and clarity of his previous missions on the border.

In the end, Zhu Yiba still cast a suspicious look at Chen Chuan. Recently, the two had become quite close because they shared similar interests.

Zhu Yiba had just been discharged from the military, so he was completely unfamiliar with the ins and outs of the police force. Chen Chuan, on the other hand, was quite clever and knew exactly what was going on.

Feeling Zhu Yiba's burning gaze, Chen Chuan, who was taking out a cigarette from his pocket, looked towards the door as the other party gestured. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized what was going on.

Zhu Yiba lifted the chair with both hands, slightly sticking out his buttocks, quickly moved to Chen Chuan's side, leaned over and whispered, just two words: "Raise your voice."

"Undercover?"

Chen Chuanzi gasped, and after recalling Chen Shu's actions that evening in light of Zhu Yiba's question, an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

Infernal Affairs!!!
Chen Shu, this is a test to see who leaked tonight's operation!
Thinking about what was to come, Chen Chuan, who had been somewhat dejected because of the cancellation of the mission, perked up again. He sat up straight and stared at his old classmate and partner with shining eyes, feeling that tonight would be well worth the trip.

Chen Shu didn't have time to pay attention to the two clowns' wonderful imagination.

While waiting for the other two police officers from Zhongshan Police Station to bring in the late-night snacks he had just ordered, Chen Shu busied himself taking care of them. Occasionally, he would pick up his mobile phone and walkie-talkie to keep in touch with the team members who had already withdrawn to the Special Police Brigade.

Zhao Feifei maintained a cold expression throughout, her mind racing as she quickly calculated how to explain things to Director Ma, who had been eagerly awaiting her arrival. She wasn't in a hurry to leave; the later she returned, the better she could explain herself, at least on the surface it would appear that she had already tried her best.

Li Chaoyang hadn't reacted yet; he was still introducing the two newly transferred police officers from Zhongshan Police Station who were accompanying them on this case, and then talking about some gossip related to A_PARTY and Sunshine Hotel.

Zhu Yiba and Chen Chuan remained silent, both staring intently at their deputy captain, their spirits returning to the same high as at the start of the operation.

Chen Shu chuckled as he ate noodles with his chopsticks, listening to Li Chaoyang's introduction, occasionally glancing at his phone before covering it with his hand.

He was the person in charge of this operation and the on-site commander.

He didn't say anything, and the others couldn't easily find an excuse to leave, so they could only sit in the meeting room and wait it out.

Zhao Feifei holds the highest position, but right now she's the one who least wants things to end.
