Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me

"Miss Tang is such a beauty, how could I not like her? I'd love to have her."

Yuan Ye joked.

"Okay, it's settled then. I'll be there whenever you call."

Zheng Qian said this generously, not caring about the looks from the people present. She could sense that these people thought she was trying to curry favor with the upstarts and was throwing herself into their arms.

There are many people here who are also plotting against her, so she has no choice but to pretend to be nice to them, which sometimes makes her very annoyed. After all, there are some people who cannot be offended, and now is a good time to let these people give up.

Yuan Ye turned to Huang Weizhong and said:

"Director Huang, let's get started."

Huang Weizhong nodded and began to deliver a welcome speech, which was nothing more than welcoming Director Yuan for visiting our bureau in his busy schedule. All police officers felt very encouraged and would live up to the trust of Mayor Su and Director Yuan, perform their duties loyally, make persistent efforts, work hard, and do their utmost to protect the safety of Shanghai.

After a passionate speech, Yuan Ye was invited to speak, and the conference room immediately broke into warm applause.

When the applause stopped, Yuan Ye began to speak. He cleared his throat and smiled:

“I came to the Municipal Bureau for inspection today, not only on behalf of the Municipal Government’s Political Security Department, but also on behalf of Mayor Su, who asked me to visit you all.

I am very pleased to see everyone in such high spirits. Thank you for your hard work in maintaining public security in Shanghai. ..."

While Yuan Ye was speaking, a small meeting was taking place in the detective department's office.

There were three people attending the meeting: Zheng Chao, Cheng Zeliang and detective captain Li Kui.

Li Kui looks to be in his early thirties. As his name suggests, he is very burly. He is the nephew of Deputy Director Hu Shuangyi, who was previously the head of the Detective Division. After Huang Weizhong came, he kicked out all the previous deputy directors and promoted Hu Shuangyi to deputy director.

Hu Shuangyi was naturally grateful to Huang Weizhong, and gave Huang Weizhong a lot of money, hoping that Huang Weizhong would promote Li Kui to the position of chief of the detective department, and Huang Weizhong agreed.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Zeliang suddenly appeared along the way. The Director of the Political Security Department, Yuan Shikai, asked Huang Weizhong to promote him to the position of Chief of the Detective Section. Huang Weizhong did not dare to refuse, and Li Kui's promotion had to be temporarily shelved. However, Huang Weizhong also agreed to promote him when a suitable position became available.

Hu Shuangyi had no other choice. He knew that even Huang Weizhong didn't dare to offend Director Yuan, so he couldn't afford to offend him either. This was the only way he could do.

He also knew that Li Kui was very disappointed, so he could only remind him that Cheng Zeliang had Director Yuan as his backer, and not to offend this new superior, otherwise the consequences would be very serious and he might not be able to protect him.

Although Li Kui was unwilling, he had no choice but to endure it.

Today was the first time he met Cheng Zeliang. Seeing that this new boss was younger than himself, he sighed in his heart that it was really easy to be an official if you had someone in the court.

He also knew Cheng Zeliang's background. He had been a policeman for several years, but he was just an ordinary police officer, not even a police sergeant.

He seemed to be unsuccessful before and was not well-received in the police station, which shows that his ability is just so-so.

Unexpectedly, he was promoted several levels and took his position, becoming the head of the detective department.

Although I was not convinced in my heart, I didn't dare show it on my face when I thought of my uncle's words.

Cheng Zeliang asked Zheng Chao about the situation when he came here. Zheng Chao gave a brief introduction and said that he only found that a car was following him, but he didn't know who was following him.

Zheng Chao also mentioned the incident in which Director Yuan shot and executed more than a dozen officials who plotted to murder Mayor Su. He suspected that it might be the remnants of these people who were holding a grudge and were looking for an opportunity to take revenge.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the anti-Japanese elements wanted to murder Director Yuan. After all, in their eyes, Director Yuan was serving the Japanese and Mr. Wang. To them, he was an out-and-out traitor.

Zheng Chao actually felt that the latter possibility was unlikely. The Military Control Commission knew that the captain was one of their own and would not come to assassinate him. The Red Party generally would not carry out assassinations, and if they wanted to kill someone, they would kill their own traitors.

The reason he brought this up was to test Cheng Zeliang and see his reaction.

In fact, there is a third possibility, which Zheng Chao did not mention. It might be that Japanese and puppet spies were following them. Of course, he could not tell Cheng Zeliang this.

If Cheng Zeliang immediately takes people to arrest the suspect, it means that this person is very reckless and does things without considering the consequences.

I have already told him that he might be an anti-Japanese element. Although I know that this is impossible, Zheng Zeliang does not know it.

I heard from the captain that he is now a member of the organization, and he should consider the consequences of catching his own people. He will never act rashly and will think twice before doing anything.

What on earth would he do?

He saw Cheng Zeliang was lost in thought. Li Kui could no longer wait and immediately stood up and said:

"What else do you want, Chief? Send someone to arrest the people in this car first."

Unexpectedly, Cheng Zeliang glared at him and said:

"Why are you in such a hurry? We can't catch them now!"

"why?"

Li Kui was a little anxious and thought that Cheng Zeliang was too indecisive. After all, he was just a small police officer and had never seen any battle situations.

"It's easy to arrest him, but have you ever thought about what would happen if he resisted and was beaten to death?

Even if we catch him, it would be easy if he confesses, but what if he doesn't?

How do we know who is behind this? The danger is always there and Director Yuan’s safety cannot be guaranteed.

We must take this possibility into consideration and be responsible for Director Yuan's safety. Otherwise, none of us can take this responsibility, not even the director.

So to be safe, we must not alert the enemy, but play the long game to catch the big fish.

I will personally conduct counter-tracking in a moment to find out where his lair is and who his accomplices are.

Once I figure out the situation, I'll send someone to catch them all in one fell swoop!"

Cheng Zeliang was also very conflicted at first. He thought the former option was easier to handle and it wouldn't be a problem to catch him.

If the people in the car are one of our own, it may cause irreparable losses to the organization.

After much thought, he came up with this safe method: he would conduct counter-tracking himself, and if he found out it was the former type of person, he would arrest him immediately.

If he finds out that it is one of his own, he will say that the target is very cunning and has gotten rid of him. Although he may have to bear some responsibility, it is worth it because he has protected the organization. Besides, the director may not do anything to him, and he cannot ignore Director Yuan's face.

Of course he also needs to seek Zheng Chao's opinion.

"Captain Guan, do you think this is okay?"

"Your idea is good. We must eradicate all evil to ensure the safety of the Director. I agree with your opinion, but you must also pay attention to safety and be cautious."

Zheng Chao had already guessed Cheng Zeliang's true thoughts, and he sighed inwardly that the captain had not misjudged him. This man was indeed capable, cautious, and considered issues comprehensively, so he should be able to rest assured in him.

I'll tell the captain later and he'll probably be satisfied.

Cheng Zeliang's argument was so convincing that he raised the level of Director Yuan's safety and the consequences that the director would have to bear. Li Kui had to admit his defeat.

Seeing that Captain Guan also agreed, he immediately said:

"Chief, was I too anxious just now? You are more thoughtful."

I thought to myself, this new boss of mine must have something good, why didn’t I think of it?
