Police officer Chen Shu

Chapter 716 Junior Brother, My Name is Chen Chuan

As soon as the group stepped into the lavishly decorated hall, they saw dozens of people either crouching in the corner with their hands on their heads, lying on the ground, or standing with panicked expressions. The scene was quite dramatic.

There were about a dozen police officers, some in plainclothes and some in uniform, standing nearby.

"Everyone, lie down properly!"

"Don't speak! Don't move!"

"Hold your hands tightly over your heads! If anyone lets go, I won't hesitate to loosen your muscles with this stick."

"Squat down properly, and don't move!"

"Turn your hands over!"

"Get down!"

The place was filled with the sounds of police shouting and urging suspects to submit to management, indicating that the area had just been taken over by them.

If you don't dwell on the current situation and the content of the words, the level of excitement is about the same as when we ride a roller coaster, and of course, the expressions are exactly the same.

Inside the venue, all the tables and chairs were swept away and piled up in another corner, clearing out a considerable amount of open space in the hall. Only one table was placed in the open space.

Once everyone was settled, the police would search people's bodies and check their belongings, counting them one by one, placing them in an evidence bag in front of everyone, sealing it with tape, having everyone sign it, and then putting it all into a sack.

These are items temporarily seized by the police. Once the case is nearly resolved, items not involved in the case will be returned to the parties involved or their designated relatives and friends.

“Young Master Chen, you see, this place is still a bit messy since we just took it over. I’ll get back to work now. If it’s convenient for you, you can go over there and help out. There are computers in there, which is perfect for your major.”

Because of the previous awkwardness, the brothers from the criminal investigation team were too embarrassed to assign tasks to Chen Chuan, so they pointed to a place next to them that was labeled "Finance Office" and told them to guard the computers and ledgers inside. In reality, it was just a place for them to rest.

In his mind, the drunken Mr. Chen was not there to help; if things went wrong, he might cause a lot of trouble for the case. It would be better to let him rest in the office, which would be the best choice from both a moral and logical standpoint, and would give both sides a way out.

Chen Chuan took a deep breath and quickly regained his energy. He turned his head slightly to Zhu Yiba, straightened his back, and strode away.

The two entered the finance office.

Chen Chuan acted as if he were at home, casually tossing himself onto the sofa and saying smugly, "See? When it really matters, it's me. Having more friends means having more options. Now you know how popular I am at the Municipal Bureau, right? The SWAT team are all roughnecks; they can't see my strengths."

Zhu Yiba thought to himself, what kind of bullshit theory is this? He had listened to the whole thing from the side and realized that in the eyes of his other colleagues at the Municipal Bureau, he really was just a playboy who did nothing. How could he still have the nerve to talk like that now?

Zhu Yiba couldn't help but facepalm, unable to understand how someone as brilliant and capable as Deputy Captain Chen could hang out with this guy every day. No, it must be that this guy is shamelessly clinging to him.

While Zhu Yiba was internally criticizing Chen Chuan, he had also forgotten that he had been traveling around with Chen Chuan recently, and to outsiders, the two seemed to have a very close relationship.

Birds of a feather flock together.

Perhaps it was Chen Chuan's heroic performance in the anti-X case that made Zhu Yiba subconsciously consider him a friend.

Having experienced "close combat," Chen Chuan felt the room was a bit hot. He took off his coat and tossed it onto the coffee table. He then took out two bottles of mineral water from beside the sofa, tossed one to Zhu Yiba, and opened one for himself, gulping it down.

After wiping his mouth, he sincerely suggested, "Have a drink, it'll help wash off the smell of alcohol on us." Zhu Yi, feeling domineering, retorted, "This is a proper day off for me, what's wrong with having a drink? Is it any of your business?"

Chen Chuan chuckled and said, "Hey, I didn't know there was such an operation tonight, so I drank. You see, I didn't do it on purpose."

At that moment, a young policeman with two folding stripes rushed in, carrying a pistol, and looked at Chen Chuan with a serious expression.

Chen Chuan was completely bewildered. He didn't know whether to put down his right hand holding the mineral water bottle or not. The two of them stared at each other for a long time.

Having experienced being misunderstood and subdued at the entrance, Chen Chuan thought it best to take the initiative. After all, he couldn't afford to lose face now, given the boast he had just made.

Chen Chuan waved to Zhu Yiba to stay still, and sat up straight from his slumped position on the sofa. He said seriously, "Brother, we are from the Special Police Brigade, here to support you in your case."

The young policeman scratched his head awkwardly, lowered his gun, and explained, "Sorry, senior. I thought you were from their company's finance department. I heard people talking inside, so..."

Seeing that the young policeman had backed down, Chen Chuan immediately put on a stern face and began to lecture him, taking the initiative: "It's not a violent case, who goes around with a gun in the middle of the crime scene? What if it goes off accidentally? How have your superiors been teaching you? Just messing around, haven't they?"

The young policeman nodded repeatedly, explaining as he lowered his head to put his gun back on his belt: "Sorry, senior, the leader mentioned in the meeting earlier that this place has police connections. Then a few minutes ago, I heard from the guys at the door that two SWAT officers were preparing to storm the place to rescue people. I thought you guys were those two."

A sudden, bad feeling washed over Chen Chuan: "Has he said what his name is?"

The young policeman looked up, frowning as he recalled, "I think his name was Chen Chuan or something, he was also in your SWAT team. Senior, do you know him?"

Zhu Yiba couldn't help but burst into laughter, making a pig-like squeal.

The last time Chen Chuan heard his own name sound so jarring was more than a decade ago when he was in junior high school, when he was caught by his PE teacher, who was also there for an all-night gaming session, while he was secretly playing games at an internet cafe.

However, when he returned to school, Chen Chuan continued to use boasting to cover up his experience, saying that his excellent skills attracted the physical education teacher to play ranked matches with him, and the two of them had a great time playing in the internet cafe.

We had breakfast together this morning and went back to school together.

However, after returning to school, the physical education teacher immediately reported the matter to the homeroom teacher.

At the time, Chen Chuan really hated the PE teacher, thinking that this newly graduated intern was really unethical, betraying his teammates after he had his fun.

However, as he grew up, Chen Chuan, who had also been unethical on several occasions, developed a sense of kinship with the physical education teacher and realized that the teacher was actually quite good.

They were teammates in internet cafes, and teachers in schools.

Whether it's for public or private reasons, one must be clear about the distinction.

At this moment, Chen Chuan touched his nose guiltily: "Hehe, that's pretty awesome."

The young police officer, rarely encountering a colleague willing to chat, was quite enthusiastic: "By the way, what's your name, senior? Let's add each other on WeChat. I also have a classmate who was assigned to your SWAT team this year."

"Oh, my name is Chen Chuan."
