Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 648

An office abroad.

Richard stood by the window on the third floor, looking down at the two big boys who slowly walked out of the door on the first floor. His eyes were cold, as if he were looking at dead men.

When the two boys turned around and waved goodbye to Richard, his eyes instantly turned into a look of reluctance, like a loving father looking at his sons who were about to leave, his eyes full of reluctance and sadness.

"Richard, these two silly boys treat you like their father. Are you really willing to send them to their deaths with your own hands?"

Hidden in the shadows on a sofa in the corner of the office, a middle-aged man swirled a wine glass filled with deep red liquid.

Richard rested his hands on the windowsill, gazing down at the street with a smile, waving occasionally and speaking quickly and practicedly:
“Henry, this is not a death sentence, but a path to heaven. Heaven is a paradise that is wider and more beautiful than heaven and earth, with rewards many times greater than people can imagine, and eternal bliss.”

Henry continued to swirl his wine glass slightly and asked, "Since heaven is so wonderful, why don't you go?"

Richard leaned forward, peering halfway out the window, gazing intently at the view below, and said, "My time at the training base is my ultimate test, and I cannot let it down."

Henry took a small, careful sip of his red wine, his Adam's apple bobbing as he let out a satisfied sigh: "Could you go and kill someone?"

Richard waved downstairs, his face filled with reluctance and expectation: "I could even kill my wife and children, even my parents who gave me life and raised me."

"As long as there is a decree." Richard emphasized the last part and repeated it.

Henry looked longingly at the red wine in his hand, then drank it all in one gulp. Without even glancing at the empty glass, he casually tossed it to the ground, where it shattered into pieces.

"then you go."

"Don't go."

Richard pulled himself back from the window, turned around, glanced at the shattered wine glass on the ground, smiled, but his eyes held no mirth, only a chilling glint.

He walked to the sofa in the corner of the room, looked down at the hungover Henry, and said sarcastically, "Henry, did the board pay you to come here for drinks?"

Henry ignored the other party's provocation, sinking his entire body into the soft, comfortable sofa. He gently stroked the top-grain cowhide with lychee-patterned leather on the sofa armrest with his fingers, closed his eyes, and felt the relaxation from body to mind.

He said calmly, "Richard, starting a business is easy, but maintaining it is difficult. Just keep this base safe and provide the foundation with a continuous stream of training talent. Other expansion matters are not for you or me to manage."

Richard gave a cold laugh: "So you're planning to stay stuck in this remote mountain valley for the rest of your life?"

Henry took the pocket watch hanging around his neck, snapped it open, and gazed at the mother-daughter photo inside with tender eyes: "Soon, in two more years we can take turns going back home."

After a moment of silence, Richard said unwillingly, "If you go back to China, you'll just be thrown into the advisory group and rot away."

“It’s us,” Henry calmly corrected. “Isn’t this peaceful, tranquil, and prosperous life, where we can spend every day with our families, exactly what we’ve been praying for all these years, enduring this garbage place and these garbage people?”

"It's you."

Richard remained unmoved by Henry's complacent attitude. He lifted his heavy leather boots and strode out of the house, his footsteps urgent.

"Wait!" Henry called from behind.

Richard, who had just stepped out of the room, gripped the doorknob, turned around, and saw his old partner slumped on the sofa, waving his fists, his expression suddenly turning anxious.

“Richard! This cutting-edge training base built by the foundation is not a tool for you to play with personal grudges! If you dare to do anything on the coast of China, that's their bottom line, and their retaliation will come immediately.” Bang!
"Hoohoo!"

Richard slammed the door shut without hesitation, panting heavily with a ferocious expression.

"Chen Shu."

He gritted his teeth, his deep voice filled with resentment and rage: "Damn you! One day, you'll be kneeling at my feet begging for mercy! I'll make you, all of you, wish you were dead!"

High-speed train.

Aikber and Abudu sat in first class. The spacious seats, modern facilities, and gentle and beautiful flight attendants made the two young people feel very novel and relaxed.

Aside from the train police officers who come looking for trouble every now and then.

"ID card."

"Where to?"

Why go to Dongzhou City?

Do you have relatives or friends there?

Every time they come, they ask the same few questions over and over again. The first few times were okay; they would ask the questions in a different order.

As they approached their destination, fewer and fewer passengers remained in the carriage. When there was no one else around, the two train police officers simply dropped their act and sat down one in front of and one behind Aikber and Abudu, their eyes practically glued to the two Wei people.

This blatant and undisguised vigilance was keenly felt by Aikber and Abudu. Even the attractive flight attendants stopped appearing later on, and the occasional sound of a flight attendant hawking food could be heard in the distance, but it had been abruptly interrupted by the sound from the previous carriage.

The two of them could only purse their lips tightly, not daring to utter a single word the entire way.

"Dear passengers, the train is about to arrive at Yoshinori Station. Please prepare to disembark. The next stop is Moroyori Station, with an estimated arrival time of 16:23. Please be prepared in advance. Thank you for your cooperation."

As the loudspeaker inside the carriage announced the arrival of the train, the two train police officers got up and left the carriage where Aikber and Abudu were.

Feeling the pressure released, the younger Abudu let out a long sigh, leaned back in the large chair, and exclaimed, "There are so many people here! Just thinking about being able to work in a place with so many people makes me feel great!"

"Yo!"

Abudu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his foot. He saw that Aikber, who was sitting next to him, was not moving at all. Abudu had kicked him several times in succession.

Abudu looked at the other person with a puzzled expression.

Aikber said bitterly, "Haven't you forgotten your teacher's teachings after only a few days? Haven't you noticed any discrimination against us by the Han people along the way? There were Han people and people of our Wei ethnicity sitting in the carriage, but when the police came over, they just wanted our ID cards!"

Abudu stretched and said nonchalantly, "Aikber, how come you're still not used to it? In New J, don't we get yelled at by the police enough? The police in your story are already being very polite to us."

Aikber stretched out his right hand, staring at his calloused palm from handling explosives and weapons, and solemnly said, "My teacher said that nothing in this world is more attractive than great power. The arrogance of the Hua people will eventually make them pay a bloody price."
