Chapter 81 Three joys!

Next to the stairwell of the Tu Yuanzhenghe Police Station office building.

Yu Lili and Ma Xiaolian stood beside him.

Tu Yuan watched calmly as Shen Xin was surrounded by several people from the Municipal Bureau's Supervision Office, walking step by step to the door of the police car they had brought.

Shen Xin also saw Tu Yuan at this moment.

He looked at Tu Yuan, whose face didn't show much expression, and for some reason, he felt something.

He always felt that Tu Yuan's eyes seemed to have anticipated this scene.

Tu Yuan's gaze showed neither surprise nor delight.

It's as if things were supposed to go this way.

Shen Xin stared at Tu Yuan for a second, and Tu Yuan met Shen Xin's gaze.

At this moment, Gu Junhua saw that Shen Xin had opened the car door but hadn't gotten in yet, so he couldn't help but call out, "Comrade Shen Xin! What's wrong? Do you still have something to take care of?"

After hearing Gu Junhua's words, Shen Xin slowly shifted his gaze away from Tu Yuan.

"No! Director Gu! The innocent have nothing to fear! Let's go!"

After saying that, Shen Xin got into the car. Gu Junhua waited for Shen Xin to get in before getting in himself.

He sat right next to Shen Xin.

A third-tier martial artist stared at him as if he were a criminal.

Shen Xin had never experienced such a feeling before.

He slowly clenched his fists.

He knew that his aunt Shen Jing's accident was definitely not that simple.

This likely involves some power struggles at the higher levels.

He was merely implicated.

However, he didn't understand what the trigger for this whole thing was.

Normally, when something like this happens, there are always some signs beforehand.

It's impossible that his father, Shen Yongli, was completely oblivious.

The current situation is that if he himself is unaware, then his father must also be unaware.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have waited until the Municipal Bureau's Supervision Office confronted him directly before realizing something was wrong.

In other words, it happened very suddenly.

He guessed that it was very likely that his aunt, Shen Jing, had been given some kind of evidence.

But someone is investigating his aunt, Shen Jing; it's impossible to find evidence in just one or two days.

As long as the investigation drags on, it's impossible for no word to get out!

But right now, the other side hasn't leaked a single word.

You should know that his father is the deputy mayor, and he also has the support of the mayor of Shengyun City.

In Shengyun City, how could anyone possibly want to harm the Shen family? They've managed to keep it so tightly under wraps!

This means that the other party's energy may be beyond imagination!

Shen Xin's mind was in complete turmoil.

There was also a faint sense of apprehension.

In the federal government, what's scary isn't being sabotaged, but not even seeing how others are making their moves!

This situation is the most terrifying.

This suggests that the power gap between the two sides in the game may be significant.

Shen Xin was afraid that if his father fell ill, he would be left to clean up his own messes.

That doesn't stop his father's rival from pressing him to death with a single finger!

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two police cars sped away from Zhenghe Police Station.

Zhang Tao watched this scene and sighed inwardly.

He even started to suspect that there might be a problem with the feng shui of the Zhenghe Police Station recently.

One problem after another.

The only good thing was that Tu Yuan captured a level-five wanted criminal and was awarded a third-class merit.

However, it wasn't a bad thing for Shen Xin to be taken away.

Zhang Tao was actually in a difficult position regarding Shen Xin, the deputy director.

After all, the other party's father is Shen Yongli.

In some matters, it's difficult not to consider Shen Yongli, the deputy mayor.

After Shen Xin came to Zhenghe Police Station, the work that Shen Xin was assigned to was only superficially acceptable.

The patrol team and the finance office—aren't they both important departments of the Zhenghe Police Station?

He gave them face, but kept the substance for himself.

Everything was fine until the other party came up and took the finance director off the stage first.

If Zheng Hai hadn't been murdered, and Sun Guangrong hadn't tried to seize power, he might not have been able to appoint his own person to the position of finance director.

Then Fang Ming broke through the martial arts master level and was injured, which led to the patrol team captain position being vacant.

Shen Xin has approached him several times in the past two days to discuss the selection of a substitute patrol team leader.

He kept them occupied by talking to them.

However, he also knew that this matter couldn't be delayed for too long.

Now, neither of the two deputy directors in the institute are on his side.

Xu Zhanqing did want to be with him, but Xu Zhanqing's mother's illness was also due to a favor from Shen Yongli.

They were too embarrassed to go against Shen Xin, so they simply spoke less or not at all.

Although he was a second-tier martial artist, he was about to be promoted, and he couldn't afford to strain the relationships between the people he was dealing with.

For him, it's okay for a few people to have conflicting opinions, but the stability of the entire leadership team of Zhenghe Police Station is more important.

On some matters, he had no choice but to back down and compromise.

At that moment, Zhang Tao's eyes suddenly flickered.

Shen Xin was taken away.

Thinking of this, Zhang Tao immediately looked at Xu Zhanqing and Sun Guangrong, who were still standing beside him in a daze, and said, "Old Xu! Deputy Director Sun! You two get ready, there's a meeting in half an hour!"

"Let's discuss the issue of who should be the acting leader of the patrol team!"

Sun Guangrong was stunned for a moment.

He immediately said, "This time! Director Zhang, isn't this a bit inappropriate?!"

"Should we wait for Director Shen to return before discussing this candidate?"

Zhang Tao did not answer Sun Guangrong's question, and Xu Zhanqing, who was standing to the side, also remained silent.

Sun Guangrong looked somewhat embarrassed.

He understood that if Shen Xin didn't come back, he would be completely powerless to resist Zhang Tao alone in the police station.

He is not as capable as Zhang Tao, and although he has powerful connections, they are not as strong as Zhang Tao's.

Zhang Tao's backer is in the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

And he, on the other hand, was Deputy Director Yin of the branch office.

Of course, Deputy Director Yin also has powerful backers in the Municipal Bureau, but although his connection with Sun Guangrong is related, it's not significant.

This is simply a difference in closeness or distance.

Thinking of this, Sun Guangrong had no choice but to agree.

The stairwell of the Zhenghe Police Station office building.

Ma Xiaolian looked somewhat puzzled.

He looked at Tu Yuan and whispered, "Brother Yuan, was Director Shen looking at you just now?!"

Ma Xiaolian's voice was low, and carried a hint of caution and care.

It was obvious from the eye contact between Tu Yuan and Shen Xin just now.

This made him realize that the relationship between the two seemed to be strained.

Tu Yuan shook his head and said, "I don't know! Maybe they're watching someone else!"

Tu Yuan denied it outright, unwilling to bring his conflict with Shen Xin to the forefront.

Especially at this critical juncture.

Tu Yuan was also thinking like a subordinate at this time. In his view, this would expose Shen Jing's affair.

He has a conflict with Shen Xin, and others might associate it with him.

In reality, no one could have imagined that this was done by a trainee police officer.

Even Shen Xin, the person directly involved in the conflict with Tu Yuan, never imagined that this matter would be related to Tu Yuan.

He felt that the game above was beyond his imagination.

"Alright! Go do your thing!"

"The fact that Deputy Director Shen was taken away by the Municipal Bureau's Supervision Office has nothing to do with us low-level police officers in the local police station!"

To Ma Xiaolian, Tu Yuan's words were an expression of the difference in status and position between Tu Yuan and Shen Xin.

Ma Xiaolian thought about it and agreed.

If Shen Xin really dislikes Tu Yuan, even if Tu Yuan is Zhang's assistant police officer, he will definitely make trouble for Tu Yuan.

After all, Shen Xin's father is the deputy mayor of Shengyun City.

Even if Director Zhang is a second-tier martial artist, he wouldn't really roll up his sleeves and go against Shen Xin for the sake of Tu Yuan, given Shen Xin's background.

However, Deputy Director Shen has now been taken away by the Municipal Bureau's Supervision Office.

Ma Xiaolian, on the contrary, felt a sense of schadenfreude.

He had no grudge against Shen Xin; he simply felt a sense of satisfaction that someone of Shen Xin's status was in trouble.

After all, he and Shen Xin were about the same age. Shen Xin was the deputy director of Zhenghe Police Station, a martial arts master, and had a father who was a deputy mayor.

It can be said that he has all sorts of accolades.

However, Ma Xiaolian was not even a martial arts student yet, and had not even entered a real apprenticeship period. He wanted to buy better medicines, but his family couldn't afford much money.

This disparity naturally fueled an inexplicable jealousy in Ma Xiaolian towards Shen Xin.

Ma Xiaolian walked towards the main office first.

He didn't talk much with Yu Lili, and Yu Lili was usually a woman of few words as well.

So he couldn't talk to Yu Lili, and that's why he didn't call Yu Lili to come with him when he returned to the main office.

Yu Lili glanced at Tu Yuan. As a girl, she was thoughtful and intelligent.

Although he doesn't talk much, he's just as good at reading people as those who are adept at social maneuvering.

She had clearly seen the eye contact between Tu Yuan and Shen Xin.

There's a grudge between the two!

Yu Lili is certain.

At this moment, she felt somewhat relieved that Shen Xin had been taken away by the people from the Municipal Bureau's Supervision Office.

People who enter the monitoring room usually find it very difficult to escape.

Otherwise, if Shen Xin continues to hold his position as deputy director, Yu Lili doesn't know what Tu Yuan will do.

The gap between the two in terms of status, strength, background, and other aspects is too great.

"Tu Yuan!"

At this moment, Yu Lili called out to Tu Yuan.

Tu Yuan turned his head.

"What's wrong, Yu Lili?"

"I received this award because of you. I don't know how to express my gratitude. I told my mother about it, and she invited you to her house for dinner."

"Are you free on your day off this week?"

Tu Yuan thought for a moment. He had already said he would treat Guo Xin to dinner during the holiday this week.

However, the time is set for the evening meal.

"I have time at noon, but I'm having dinner with my friends in the evening."

"Then come to my house for lunch, okay?"

"no problem."

After agreeing on a time, Yu Lili said she had something to do and headed towards the main office.

Tu Yuan was just about to return to the command center office.

He then received a meeting notice from Zhang Tao, asking him to attend the meeting.

The main purpose of this meeting was to discuss the selection of the patrol team leader.

Zhang Tao's reasons at the meeting were also quite legitimate.

Fang Ming needed to recuperate in the hospital because of his failed breakthrough.

However, considering that Deputy Director Shen Xin is also in charge of the patrol team's work.

Therefore, there was no rush to discuss who would temporarily take over Fang Ming's role as team leader.

Shen Xin has now been taken away by the Municipal Bureau's Supervision Office, and now the patrol team has lost its two main leaders.

Therefore, it is necessary to finalize the selection of the acting team leader.

The person who ultimately became the acting patrol team leader was naturally Gao Danyang, the deputy team leader recommended by Fang Ming.

Duan Jinzhong, another vice-captain who had latched onto Shen Xin's coattails, failed to rise to the top.

Sun Guangrong also tried to advocate for Duan Jinzhong at the meeting.

But now that Shen Xin has been lost, Xu Zhanqing's attitude is ambiguous.

He was completely unable to interfere with Zhang Tao's decision.

In the end, we can only accept reality.

Tu Yuan hadn't expected Shen Xin to make this move.

This, in turn, created an opportunity for Zhang Tao.

He himself was happy to see Gao Danyang rise to power.

After all, Gao Danyang had a good relationship with him, and Gao Danyang was right about one thing today: the other deputy captain of the patrol team, Duan Jinzhong, was a black-hearted man.

That's not a fair way to do things.

Not only do they love to take credit, they are also adept at shirking responsibility.

If Fang Ming hadn't kept him in check, who knows what kind of atmosphere the patrol team would have had.

After Yang Yunwei left, Tu Yuan knew that Zhang Tao was planning to target Duan Jinzhong.

But Duan Jinzhong was quick to curry favor with powerful figures, and within a few days he had already secured Shen Xin's support.

Now that Shen Xin is in trouble, Zhang Tao might be considering taking action against Duan Jinzhong again.

After the meeting, another piece of good news came.

That means Tu Yuan's application for early promotion has been approved, and the notification has been issued.

Tu Yuan went to collect his new shoulder insignia.

Now, Tu Yuan's shoulder insignia are no longer empty, but are adorned with a shining star emblem.

This means that Tu Yuan is no longer a trainee police officer.

He is a first-level police officer.

The change in the shoulder insignia also pleased Tu Yuan.

I received this star-studded epaulette after just over five months of working at the police station!

This is more than many people.

Having this epaulette means he has formal law enforcement authority!

The power of law enforcement can be either large or small.

It mainly depends on who it is.

If we're really going to get serious, he can handle even the crimes committed by second-generation rich kids.

Of course, being able to manage it is one thing, but being unable to manage it is another.

Or, to put it another way, what the consequences of taking action, whether it can actually lead to someone's conviction, is another matter entirely.

That's just how reality is.

In this world, being good at fighting isn't enough; you also need power and connections.

Today was undoubtedly a very smooth day for Tu Yuan.

First, he received a third-class merit award, and then he successfully became a first-class police officer.

And Shen Xin, this troublesome person, has temporarily disappeared from the Zhenghe Police Station.

It can be said that this is a triple celebration!

Tu Yuan's tense nerves also relaxed.

For a moment, Tu Yuan felt that the air in the police station was fresher.

This is a change in mindset.

When Tu Yuan got home that evening, he opened Shengyun Evening News and started watching it.

If Shen Yongli is involved in Shen Jing's matter, then some of it can be seen from the news.

For example, the news broadcast now about the government-business symposium.

Shen Yongli was considered one of the key participants in the Shengyun Municipal Government meeting.

If Shen Yongli gets involved, his speeches and even his name might disappear from the news.

Tu Yuan also looked forward to seeing such a scene.

However, the result left Tu Yuan somewhat disappointed.

Because the footage of Shen Yongli speaking was not deleted, and even occupied a significant portion of the news article.

This shows that Shen Jing's matter did not have a significant impact on him.

It's very likely that Shen Yongli has distanced himself completely, or perhaps Shen Jing, as Shen Yongli's sister, knows very well that she must deny any involvement with Shen Yongli.

That's how she had the chance to make a comeback.

So, is it really possible that the investigation office called Shen Xin over today simply to have him cooperate with the investigation?

However, Tu Yuan did not panic after guessing this.

After experiencing such an incident, even if Shen Xin returned to the institute...

They will likely keep a low profile and won't dare to be as high-profile as before, directly competing with Zhang Tao.

His own identity as Zhang Tao's assistant police officer also makes Shen Xin more cautious than before.

In short, although things did not achieve the effect that Tu Yuan wanted, they certainly played a certain role.
