Chapter 84 Meritorious Service
Cheng Jie glared at Shen Yong and pointed to the tightly locked gate of the courtyard house.
This means that we shouldn't get carried away, as the enemy agents haven't been caught yet.
The courtyard house has three sections. According to information provided by Chang Kun, the enemy agent was hiding in the cellar on the east side of the second section.
The courtyard gate was locked, so they couldn't force their way in. Cheng Jie gestured for several police officers to form a human ladder.
"Brother Cheng, wait a minute." Chang Kun remembered the lock-picking skill that the system had rewarded him with.
He looked around and found a sharp twig on the ground. He used the tip of the twig to press against the lock cylinder and twisted it left and right.
With a soft click, the lock was opened.
Silence reigned all around, and Cheng Jie and the other police officers stared blankly at Chang Kun.
This kid is so skilled at picking locks! Even the top thief in the station isn't that good at it!
Chang Kun gently pushed the door open and found that it was also bolted from the inside. He turned around and gestured to Cheng Jie.
Upon seeing this, Captain Shen Yong leaped over the wall, jumped into the courtyard, and opened the gate.
"Team One, go in, and be very quiet! Team Two, Captain Ji Sibo, take two men and keep watch outside the door!"
Cheng Jie gave instructions on the task.
When Ji Sibo heard that he was assigned to guard the gate outside, his face immediately fell, and he hurriedly pleaded in a low voice, "No, Chief, let me in! I want to be on the front lines!"
If we get inside, we might even have a chance to capture the enemy agent ourselves and gain credit.
Now, there's absolutely no hope of me having to stay outside and personally capture enemy agents.
It's all my fault for trying to mess with Chang Dashan. He was the one who discovered the clues about the enemy agent, and I didn't dare to say a word the whole way, for fear of displeasing the director.
Unexpectedly, the director still made him guard the gate outside!
This……
Oh! I regret it!
Cheng Jie's eyes widened: "Jisibo, disobeying orders?"
Ji Sibo was stunned. Wasn't this what he had said to Chang Dashan before? Now the director was using it to scold him.
He gritted his teeth and saluted Cheng Jie: "I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"
A large number of police officers quietly poured into the courtyard, led by Chang Kun, and arrived at the Intermediate People's Court.
He pointed to the cellar on the east side of the courtyard: "Brother Cheng, it's in there."
Cheng Jie nodded and waved his hand. Team leader Shen Yong led his team forward and entered the cellar.
Three or four minutes later, muffled groans and cries of pain came from the cellar.
Shen Yong led out a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. The man had a simple, honest face, but was crying out in terror:
"Who are you! Why are you arresting me? I have no money!"
In Chang Kun's perception, this person was indeed the prey with blood-red fangs. He nodded to Cheng Jie, indicating that this was the person.
Cheng Jie stepped forward and asked:
"Shen Yong, what did you learn?"
Shen Yong nodded excitedly:
"That kid's definitely up to something. When I rushed down, he seemed to sense something was wrong and was burning a notebook, which I put out!"
The credit is in the bag now!
He turned and smiled at Chang Dashan, already thinking about how to recruit this old Chang into his team.
"Report to the captain! We've found a codebook and a roster!" At that moment, another team member came out of the cellar and rushed to Cheng Jie's side.
"The roster was almost burned. This kid didn't expect to be ambushed by us. He was subdued as soon as he lit the fire."
The codebook, which was pinned to the back of the stool, was also found.
"Good! Well done!" Cheng Jie laughed heartily, took the roster, and quickly flipped through it.
"This is a big fish!" He flipped through the roster, gasped, and became more and more alarmed as he looked.
"Shen Yong, you lead the team to continue the search. We can't overlook a single clue, inside and out of this courtyard, especially that cellar!"
Cheng Jie hurriedly gave a few instructions, then escorted the prisoner away with Chang Dashan and Chang Kun.
This big fish is beyond the capabilities of his small Gulou Police Station.
Back at the office, Cheng Jie was busy all the time, and only after making several phone calls did he finally relax.
"Xiao Kun, you two have done a great job this time!" Cheng Jie gulped down a few mouthfuls of water, took a breath, walked up to Chang Kun, and put his arm around his shoulder.
"Hey, maybe the whole police station can get some credit for this," Cheng Jie said, getting happier with each word. "I'm treating you two to dinner tonight!"
Chang Dashan scratched his head, wondering how he had been credited with something without doing anything.
Half an hour later, the prisoners were taken away, and the roster and codebook were also handed over.
Cheng Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
The people on that roster were spread throughout the area surrounding the capital, especially Pinggu, where there were even telegraph operators and radio stations.
The number of people involved in the case was as high as hundreds, far exceeding the capacity of the local police station.
This big fish is a lieutenant colonel; if you try to eat it, you'll choke.
Those who can alarm the ministry are a hot potato if kept in one's own department; it's best to hand them over to the ministry.
The special agents around the capital were to be arrested by the ministry.
The Gulou Police Station deserves a great deal of credit for this matter.
Chang Dashan will almost certainly receive a third-class merit award, and the institute might also receive a collective third-class merit award.
I'm so lucky today!
"Let's go, let's go to the state-run restaurant for a few drinks." Cheng Jie was so happy that he put his arm around Chang Kun and Chang Dashan's shoulders and walked out.
"Brother Cheng, goodbye. It's my first day at work, and my younger sisters are waiting for me at home."
Besides, the ministry might send people over to question you tonight, so don't get drunk later.
Chang Kun thought of his younger sister at home. He hadn't seen her all day and wondered if she was behaving well with her older sister.
Moreover, given Cheng Jie's low alcohol tolerance (he can only drink three cups), if someone from the ministry comes to question him at night and finds the director drunk and unconscious, that would be really inappropriate.
Cheng Jie thought for a moment and nodded: "Then let's postpone the drinking until we're celebrating our achievements!"
The three of them walked out of the office and into the courtyard.
At this moment, Captain Shen Yong, Captain Ji Sibo, and a group of team members returned from outside.
Shen Yong laughed heartily, reached out, and firmly grasped Chang Dashan's hand:
"Old Chang, I got lucky today! Just now at the courtyard, the department leaders found out I was the one who caught the enemy spy, and they praised me a lot!"
This was the most glorious moment of Shen Yong's life!
After he retired from the army, he usually caught petty thieves and hooligans. He never dared to dream of catching a big fish like today.
"Come on, Lao Chang, let's go for a drink! I'll transfer you to our squad later." Shen Yong's face was flushed with excitement.
Chang Dashan blushed slightly as Shen Yong held his hand.
He wasn't really involved at all; he just followed behind his son and picked up the credit.
"Don't go drinking. The ministry might send people to question you later. Let's drink together after the commendation ceremony!" Cheng Jie advised.
"You can even get commendations?" Shen Yong stared wide-eyed at Cheng Jie, unblinking. "Chief, what kind of commendations could there be?"
Cheng Jie stroked his chin: "I reckon the institute might get a collective third-class merit, and Chang Dashan should be a shoo-in for an individual third-class merit."
"Huh?! The person we arrested must be someone important!" Shen Yong was even more surprised. He had been at the police station for several years, and the station had never received a collective commendation.
"Let's wait until the case is closed. We've made it big this time!" Cheng Jie thought to himself with glee.
Hiding behind Shen Yong, Ji Sibo listened to the laughter of the group and felt extremely regretful.
If I hadn't gone to the muddy alley and at least not targeted Chang Dashan, I could be standing at the front right now, laughing with everyone.
But now, all he wants is to sneak away when no one is looking, so as not to be embarrassed.
Shen Yong noticed that Ji Sibo was trying to sneak away, laughed loudly, and grabbed his arm:
"Jisibo, where are you going? Our institute is going to receive a collective third-class merit award. Aren't you happy?"
You sent Lao Chang to the alley, and he did a great job. Aren't you happy? Hahahaha…”
Ji Sibo kept his head down and remained silent.
I just wanted to sneak away, and you had to stab me in the heart!
