The real life of an American police officer: Winning over others with virtue

Chapter 18 Dispatch
After hearing Eric's words, Annie looked at the pistols on the table and finally chose the Glock 17.

Eric was not surprised to see this, as the guns commonly used in the police academy would usually be kept in the police station.

Unless there are other contacts later, they will choose to change guns. Otherwise, using an unfamiliar firearm is a taboo for the police station and a very stupid choice.

"Two magazines, Ball," Eric said.

Bauer put away all his pistols and pulled out two magazines from the bottom. He glanced at Annie who was getting familiar with her gun and whispered, "When did you become so dedicated, Eric?"

Annie's heart moved.

Eric remained calm and collected, he just picked up the two magazines on the table and threw them to Annie, saying.

"When have I ever not tried my best?"

Bauer didn't know the truth, nor did he know Annie's real background. When he saw Annie's delicate face, he gave Eric an ambiguous smile.

Dude, stop pretending! I get it!
You know nothing, Jill! Eric was speechless and was too lazy to stay here and talk nonsense with this tech geek.

"M4 carbine, M870 shotgun."

"OK!"

Like a universal treasure chest, Ball pulled out two firearms, an M4 carbine and an M870 shotgun, along with related accessory kits and magazines.

At the same time, he took out a document and a pen.

Eric picked up the pen and signed the document tacitly, then picked up the small bag containing accessories and magazines and threw them all to Annie, then picked up the two guns on the table with both hands.

"Let's go. I'll bring you ten donuts next time I come."

After saying that, he took Aini away from the place.

"Shit! You just said the same thing this morning! So when are you bringing it to me?"

Bauer's cursing voice came from behind, but Eric had already taken Annie out of the equipment room and did not respond at all.

After completing the most important step of weapons, Eric took Annie to pick up the body recorder and the TASER X26 electric shock gun.

“You don’t have to use this thing, but you have to have it every day.”

Annie had too many things in her hands and couldn't move her hands, so Eric silently inserted the TASER X26 electric shock gun into the spare equipment bag on her waist and said.

"But you can't trust this thing too much. Many people are immune to it, you know?"

Annie nodded obediently. She knew that the young instructor in front of her was really teaching her seriously, which made her feel a little dependent. She answered seriously:

"Yes! Sir!"

Eric nodded with satisfaction. Having been a patrolman for two years, he knew the nature of this thing very well.

Although this stun gun has a high voltage of 5 volts, it can paralyze or spasm the suspect's muscles through instantaneous high voltage, causing him to lose the ability to control his limbs.

But in fact, it is useful against some weaklings who are thin and don't have much tolerance.

It's not that useful against some strong and drug-addled idiots. Instead, it becomes a magical tool to give the suspect an enrage and rage buff.

How should I put it? This thing is quite embarrassing. It was originally used to allow patrol officers to instantly control criminals when the suspects do not cooperate.

"Good to know. Let's go and pick up our patrol car for today."

Eric left after saying this, and Annie followed him obediently.

The two walked all the way to the reception area.

"Oh! Shit! Sheriff Diane, we haven't seen each other for just one morning. How come you have become so beautiful? Did some magician cast a spell on you?" Eric saw Sheriff Diane in colorful makeup and flattered her without changing his expression.

As expected, as soon as the flattery was delivered, Sheriff Diane, who had been suppressing her subordinates with a serious face, burst into laughter. To put it bluntly, women's nature is to love beauty, and who doesn't like a handsome guy to praise her beauty?

She rolled her eyes at Eric, took out a key from the key rack on the side and handed it to Eric.

"That magician is me!"

This made Annie's face freeze while she was standing at the back. In her opinion, the makeup of the reception sergeant who was close to retirement was too exaggerated. God knew how the instructor in front of her could bring himself to praise him.

Maybe Sheriff Diane's makeup was really too exaggerated, Eric coughed dryly and reminded her.

"However, even without magic, you are still very beautiful. Magic is just an unnecessary embellishment."

Eric expressed his meaning implicitly and turned to Annie.

"Say hello, this is Sheriff Diane, the famous beauty from the West Canyon Police Department! It's a pity she's already taken, otherwise her suitors would line up all the way to San Francisco."

"Stop! Don't exaggerate." Sheriff Diane glanced at Annie, with a hint of surprise on her face. This little girl is so beautiful, why did she decide to become a patrol officer?
"Sheriff Diane! I'm the new police officer Annie Carlisle!" Annie took this opportunity to introduce herself obediently.

"A new student?" Sheriff Diane asked in surprise.

Eric nodded and picked up the key. "I'm the student in charge. I hope you can take good care of me in the future."

Sheriff Diane wanted to say something, but Eric had already spoken to Annie.

"Let's go, rookie, it's getting late."

Sheriff Diane understood the situation, so she could only shut her mouth and watch the two men leave.

On the way, the student nodded to her sensibly.

"Tsk, how young!" Sergeant Diane curled her lips in a jealous tone, then returned to her post and suppressed the crowd in the reception area.
Eric said as he walked out of the police station and down the path towards the garage.

"Are you curious about why I do this?"

Aini whispered, "Yeah."

"Because we basically hand over the police car keys to the reception area before we get off work," said Eric.

"I think you're a smart person and should understand the process. Just by saying a few nice words, you can get a patrol car in good condition. Why not?

Rookie, the police department is a very complicated place, and everyone is not as simple as they seem on the surface, so you still have a lot to learn, so study hard.

Of course, I will teach you carefully."

Annie raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at the broad figure in front of her, and seemed to feel closer psychologically.

Since it was a two-person patrol, Eric took Annie to the car where the keys belonged. It was not the Chevrolet Caprice he had driven before, but a Ford Explorer patrol car.

This is a modified mid-size SUV patrol car.

Compared to the Chevrolet Caprice, this patrol car has a heavy-duty steel bumper on the front, a hexagonal honeycomb grille on the radiator grille, and a redesigned integrated police light and heat dissipation function.

The trunk volume exceeds 1,300 liters and can accommodate large police equipment such as bulletproof shields, long guns, and first aid kits.
The rear of the car even passed the 120km/h impact test.

In order to meet the needs of chasing suspects, the power cooling system, brakes and steel wheels are all exclusive settings, and it is also equipped with a towing device that can withstand 2,268kg.

There is a puncture-proof guard behind the driver's seat, and optional active safety technologies such as rear camera and collision prevention system are available.

At the same time, the 3.3L power plus electric motor can reach a maximum speed of 148 miles per hour (238 kilometers per hour), which is quite powerful when chasing cars.
