Reborn as an Armed Police Officer: I Became an All-Round Soldier King Through Duty

Chapter 66 Taking the Stage

"Fine, you know I won't say anything more. It's annoying to talk about it too much."

He glanced at the time.

"Walk."

"I'll walk you to the door."

Zhou Heng was taken aback.

"Isn't that necessary?"

Bao Cheng glanced at him.

"On the way."

Zhou Heng didn't say anything more, he just stood up straight.

"Yes."

……

Next to the self-defense post, a vehicle from the detachment was parked at the entrance.

Zhao Deng was already waiting there. When he saw Zhou Heng, he smiled and waved.

"Zhou Heng!"

"here!"

"Squad Leader Zhao."

Zhao Deng glanced at him from head to toe.

"Looks quite energetic."

"You look energetic too."

"Holy crap?"

Bao Cheng was speechless.

"Are you two laughing your heads off?"

At this moment, Huang Shan and Liu Meng also came over, with Huang Shan holding two documents in his hands.

"The person is now in your hands."

The team leader nodded with a smile.

"rest assured."

"There will be an awards ceremony in the morning, followed by a brief interview."

"They should be back around noon."

Huangshan nodded.

"it is good."

He then looked at Zhou Heng and Zhao Deng.

"When you arrive at the detachment, be mindful of etiquette and manners."

"Don't embarrass the squadron."

The two immediately stood up straight.

"yes!"

Liu Meng also gave instructions:

"Don't be nervous during the interview."

"Just cooperate with whatever arrangements the organization makes."

"We're waiting for your good news at the squadron!"

"clear!"

Bao Cheng stood silently to the side until Zhou Heng was about to get into the car before he spoke.

"Zhou Heng".

"arrive."

"Hold on!"

"yes!"

The car door closed, and the vehicle slowly drove out of the squadron.

Zhou Heng sat in the back row.

Through the car window, I saw a group of people standing downstairs.

Fang Lin waved secretly.

Li Meng also waved.

Bao Cheng didn't wave; he just stood there watching the car leave.

The moment the car turned out of the camp gate, Zhou Heng suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

This was the first time he had left the squadron in this way.

Zhao Deng sat down next to him and gently nudged his arm.

"What are you thinking about?"

Zhou Heng came to his senses.

"It's nothing."

Zhao Deng laughed:

"Doesn't this seem a bit unreal?"

Zhou Heng nodded.

"Um."

Zhao Deng leaned back in his chair and looked out the window.

"I also feel it's unreal; I guess I'm just benefiting from your fame."

"I'm a sergeant in my second year, and I've received the 'Four Virtues' award twice and two commendations."

"This is truly my first time receiving a third-class merit award."

"Although I can't compare to you, I'm content."

Zhou Heng quickly said:

"Squad Leader Zhao, don't say that."

"If you hadn't reminded me, I definitely wouldn't have realized the situation so quickly."

Zhao Deng smiled.

"Is it from Bao Chengjiao?"

"Old Bao may have a foul mouth, but he's got real skills."

"He must have been putting a lot of pressure on you these past few days, right?"

Zhou Heng thought for a moment.

"fine."

Zhao Deng laughed:

"As long as you can accept it."

"It definitely won't work if no one takes care of it."

Zhou Heng did not refute.

As the car drove towards the detachment, the streets gradually became more lively.

Soon they arrived at the detachment headquarters.

The vehicle stopped.

After the self-defense sentry checked and verified the vehicle, it drove into the brigade headquarters compound.

As soon as Zhou Heng got out of the car,

I saw that there were already people waiting at the entrance of the office building ahead.

An officer from the political department of the detachment came to greet them.

"Zhou Heng, Zhao Deng, right?"

"Come with me."

The two immediately straightened their clothes.

"yes!"

The two followed the clerk inside.

in the corridor,

People would stop and look at them from time to time.

Especially when looking at Zhou Heng,

Their eyes were full of scrutiny and curiosity.

"Is this the new recruit?"

"The one with the second-class merit award?"

"What incredible luck!"

"Don't be envious, that's just fate!"

A few whispered comments drifted into my ears.

Zhou Heng subconsciously straightened his back.

Zhao Deng also straightened his posture a bit.

quickly,

The two were taken to a small lounge next to the auditorium.

Not long after,

The clerk walked in carrying a flowchart.

"You two, pay attention."

"The commendation ceremony will begin promptly at nine o'clock."

"Your seats are in the first row, on the far right."

"Come up on stage when your name is called. Zhou Heng, stand in front. Squad leader, you need to give the command."

"After taking the stage, turn right and salute the leader."

"After the ceremony, the leader will pin the medals on you and issue the certificates."

"After saluting again, we took a group photo and then left the stage."

"Don't grab it, and don't make any unnecessary movements."

"Zhou Heng".

Zhou Heng immediately stood up.

"arrive!"

The clerk looked at him.

"You have a statement to make."

"Did you bring the manuscript?"

"I brought it."

"I'll watch it again."

"Yes."

Zhou Heng handed over the revised speech materials from Bao Cheng.

The officer took it, glanced at it, and quickly nodded.

"Can."

"Please be more clear when you speak."

"Don't go too fast or too slow, and don't keep your head down while reciting."

"When taking photos, you don't need to worry about the camera."

"News reporters will find their own angles."

"Do you understand?"

"clear!"

As the time drew closer to nine o'clock, people began to enter the auditorium.

brigade leaders,

Representatives from each squadron,

government officials

It's a pity that the families of those who received the awards did not come.

After a while,

The clerk walked in.

"Please take a seat, the leader is coming."

"yes!"

Zhou Heng and Zhao Deng took their seats, but the other leaders on the podium had not yet arrived.

Nine o'clock sharp.

A series of orderly footsteps echoed outside the auditorium.

The venue, which had been making some noise, fell silent instantly.

The clerk picked up the microphone.

"stand up!"

Everyone stood up at the same time.

Political Commissar Gao Su led the detachment leadership team in through the side door and stood in front of the rostrum.

Zhou Heng stood on the far right of the first row.

I can clearly hear my own heartbeat.

"Play the national anthem!"

A solemn melody began.

Zhou Heng looked up and stood ramrod straight.

The national anthem has ended.

"sit."

Everyone took their seats.

The officer continued:

"Now, the award announcement will be read."

An official walked up to the microphone and opened a folder.

The venue fell completely silent.

Zhou Heng sat in the chair, his palms gently resting on his knees.

nervous,

I'm so nervous!

"Since the beginning of this year, all officers and soldiers of the detachment have focused on duty and training, faithfully performed their duties, and worked diligently, resulting in a number of outstanding individuals..."

"Comrade Zhou Heng, Private, currently a soldier in the First Company."

"During their duties, they maintained a high level of vigilance, reported promptly, and acted decisively, effectively maintaining order and security at their posts."

"After review and reporting by the brigade's Party Committee, the brigade headquarters approved the application."

"Comrade Zhou Heng is hereby awarded a second-class merit!"

applause.

"Clap clap clap—"

Zhou Heng felt a sudden jolt in his chest.

He then pinched his leg hard; it hurt a lot.

Really

He really did receive a second-class merit award!

Then Zhao Deng was mentioned.

"Comrade Zhao Deng, Sergeant, is currently the squad leader of the fourth squad of the first company."

"When coordinating the handling of emergencies, we must be observant and report promptly."

"Awarded a third-class merit."
