Playing the Eighth Route Army, the system is forcing this on me?

The next morning.

Hengdian Police Station, Chief's Office.

"Bang."

Director Wei slapped his thick palm on the solid wood desk.

The teacup on the table jumped.

A few drops of tea splashed onto the document.

"You two have gone too far!"

Director Wei's chest heaved violently.

He pointed to Captain Liu and Zhang Xiaoxue, who were standing in the corner.

"You've forgotten all the discipline you learned at the police academy!"

"Why is it that all you think about all day long is catching people!"

"What I need is evidence!"

"Irrefutable, irrefutable evidence!"

"I told you to go to the set to get some evidence, and what did you do? You brought the person back to me again?"

"This time they're even bolder, grabbing three at once!"

"Will this ever end?"

"Stand up straight!"

Team Leader Liu and Zhang Xiaoxue pressed their backs tightly against the cold wall.

Their chins almost touched their collarbones.

Team Leader Liu's weathered face turned bright red.

He was as imposing as he was when he led his team into the film set last night, and now he's in a sorry state.

He was also having some doubts.

The smell was definitely not right.

No normal person would become so irrational after smelling chicken soup for the soul.

Old Wang from the anti-drug team has already discussed it with everyone; this motivational speech is definitely problematic!

Look how much those veteran actors pay attention to their image in their daily lives.

They all put on airs, afraid of ruining the artist's image.

But the way he was grabbing the bottom of the pot while lying on the table yesterday was even more frantic than a drug addict.

To say that there was no D in the soup would be truly unbelievable!

Zhang Xiaoxue bit her lower lip.

Feeling wronged welled up in her eyes.

She clearly saw with her own eyes that those people were so greedy that they lost their minds.

How could there be no problem with that kind of drooling that defies common sense?

Could it be that all my years of criminal investigation experience were wrong?

She didn't believe in superstitions.

But the bureau chief was in a fit of anger, and she didn't dare to utter a single word in rebuttal.

All I could do was silently plan ahead, waiting for the test results to come out, and then I would let the facts speak for themselves!

And just when the air pressure in the office dropped to its lowest point.

A sudden, urgent siren sounded outside the window.

The sound wasn't from a police car, but from an ambulance.

The red and blue emergency lights were flashing.

Light and shadow filtered through the blinds, slicing across Director Wei's serious face.

ambulance?

At 6:30 a.m., the air in the police station compound was still chilly.

Why did an ambulance drive into the compound?

What major case has occurred?

Director Wei frowned.

Team Leader Liu and Zhang Xiaoxue also quietly raised their eyes.

suddenly.

boom.

The office door was kicked open.

A young police officer stood panting at the door.

He leaned against the door frame, panting heavily.

Before he could speak, Director Wei asked a question first.

"And what's wrong with you now?"

"Can't you knock before coming in?"

The young police officer swallowed hard.

"Director Wei, it's...it's Old Wang from the lab!"

"Last night, Lao Wang stayed up all night analyzing the pot of chicken soup you brought back."

The young police officer's expression turned extremely strange.

It was as if he was trying hard to suppress some absurd emotion.

"But that chicken soup must have smelled too good."

"Old Wang drooled all night in the lab!"

"This morning, when the cleaning staff went to clean, they found that the person was severely dehydrated!"

"They're being rushed to the city hospital for emergency treatment!"

what?

The air in the office seemed to freeze.

Director Wei's mouth dropped open.

what what?

You're testing chicken soup and you've ended up testing someone for dehydration?!

Team Leader Liu and Zhang Xiaoxue also stared wide-eyed.

The group couldn't believe their ears.

Old Wang is the most senior lab technician in the bureau.

I've seen all sorts of storms in my life.

He remained completely calm even when testing DP.

Now I'm actually so tempted by a pot of chicken soup that I'm going dehydrated and in shock?

How much saliva would you have to drool to get yourself into the emergency room?!

Captain Liu felt his worldview was collapsing.

The image of the police dog lying on the ground, drooling, being dragged away by his colleagues yesterday flashed through his mind.

So this thing is really that deadly?

Zhang Xiaoxue subconsciously touched the corner of her mouth.

She remembered the embarrassment she felt yesterday in the surveillance car, her clothes soaked with sweat just from listening to the sound of swallowing.

I initially thought it was because I lacked self-control.

It now seems that even a veteran like Lao Wang, who remains calm even when Mount Tai collapses before him, has been defeated and fallen.

What's a little drooling?

"What about the report? Has Lao Wang finished writing it?" Director Wei's voice was trembling.

"Yes!" The young police officer stepped forward quickly.

He handed over a report with slightly damp edges.

"This is the lab report that Lao Wang managed to get done before he fell into a coma, by sheer willpower."

Director Wei grabbed the report.

The paper made a crisp sound in mid-air.

He read down line by line.

The further down he looked, the heavier his breathing became.

My gaze finally settled on the conclusion section.

"Multiple spectral analysis and component analysis revealed no known prohibited substances added."

No neurostimulant drugs were found.

"The ingredients are extremely simple."

"Final conclusion... confirmed to be simply boiled free-range chicken in water!"

"Damn it!" Director Wei slammed the report heavily on the table.

"You two, take a look for yourselves!"

He pointed to the piece of paper.

"Is this what you call suspected poisoning?"

"Is this what you call endangering public safety?"

"They just boiled a pot of chicken in plain water!"

"You arrested three people in front of everyone, and you even stewed our bureau's chief lab technician into the ICU!"

"No way, are you two out of your minds?!"

Team Leader Liu shrank back.

Zhang Xiaoxue didn't dare to reply.

They just couldn't understand how plain water with chicken could smell so incredibly delicious.

Could this Yi be the reincarnation of the God of Cookery?

"Look what you two have done!"

Director Wei's temper flared up again.

"You guys think that actor named Yi Zheng isn't famous enough, right?"

"We arrested someone yesterday, and we're arresting someone again today!"

"Are you planning to make him the permanent spokesperson for the Hengdian Police Station?!"

"Release them immediately!"

"Immediately, right now!"

"Yes!" Captain Liu and Zhang Xiaoxue felt as if they had been granted a pardon.

He quickly and sheepishly ran out of the office.

……

Squeak.

The iron door to the detention cell was opened.

Yi Zheng slowly walked out from inside.

The lights in the corridor were dim.

He slept on the hard bed in the detention cell all night and found it quite peaceful.

There was no roaring from the director, nor any jealousy from his peers.

There's no need to listen to those veteran actors lecturing you based on your age.

When he was arrested last night, he wanted to explain himself.

Later, he simply gave up.

What's there to explain? You can't exactly say you have a system, can you?

As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the police station building.

A crisp electronic voice echoed from deep within my brain.
