Stop it, the country really can't fit any more bans on the domestic entertainment industry.

The major operation mentioned in Chapter 148

The scene then shifts to the urban area of Yanghai City.

The city center police station.

It was morning at the time.

Bright sunlight filtered through the branches and leaves of the old locust tree outside the hall, breaking into small, fragmented patches of light.

Sunlight streamed through the half-open glass window, casting slanted rays onto the desk.

Inside the director's office, the computer screen emitted a faint glow.

An old printer was humming softly in the corner.

In the backend of the internal office system.

Just now, I received several leave requests submitted from IP addresses outside the city.

The office door was pushed open.

Captain Chen from the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Narcotics Enforcement Team walked in, carrying several case files.

He happened to be at the police station to handle some business.

Chen Gang walked to the sofa and sat down.

He placed the case file in his hand on the coffee table and let out a long sigh.

The face that had previously been covered in dark circles now showed obvious signs of relaxation.

Since receiving confirmation from border patrol colleagues that Zhao Zhihai, that big tumor, had been safely escorted back to the bureau.

The heavy weight that had been pressing on Chen Gang's mind for several days was finally lifted off his feet.

at this time.

While waiting for the police station clerk to get the stamps and complete the handover with my colleague, I took advantage of the time.

Chen Gang picked up the freshly brewed tea in front of him and took a sip.

He raised his head.

He started chatting with Chief Liu of the police station, who was sitting behind his desk.

"Old Liu."

"The people from your unit who went out this time have done a great job."

Chen Gang put down his teacup, his tone tinged with emotion.

"That Zhao Zhihai."

"Slippery as an eel, yet wielding heavy firepower."

"Our team has been keeping an eye on him for over half a year, but we still haven't been able to catch him red-handed."

"As a result, Li Mo'an brought along Lao Zou and the others from your institute."

"They've only been gone a few days, and they've already brought them back tied up and packed up."

Director Liu smiled upon hearing the praise.

He carried the purple clay teapot and walked to the sofa.

They added some more hot water for Chen Gang.

"The main problem is that Li Mo'an is too much of a troublemaker."

Director Liu shook his head.

"I didn't expect that either."

"At first, it was just Boss Yang who asked me to arrange a place for that kid to experience life. The higher-ups also put in a good word for me."

"Who knew he wouldn't just stay idle, but would cause such a commotion?"

The two were chatting.

"Beep beep beep".

Two crisp beeps suddenly came from the computer speakers on the desk.

This is a notification from the internal OA system that an approval has been received.

Director Liu put down the purple clay teapot.

He turned and walked to his desk, pulled out a chair and sat down.

I held the mouse in my right hand and gently shook it.

The computer screen, which was emitting a faint glow, lit up instantly.

Director Liu put on his reading glasses, squinted, and leaned closer to the screen.

"Um?"

"What is this?"

Director Liu looked at the several to-do items that popped up in the system's backend.

He clicked on the approval form at the top.

Chen Gang was sitting on the sofa, bored.

Hearing Director Liu's questioning voice, he also stood up.

He strolled to the side of the desk, peeked over, and inadvertently saw the contents of the computer system.

That was an electronic leave application.

The applicant's name is clearly written as: Zou Jianguo.

Chen Gang was stunned for a moment.

He looked at the leave request and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Old Zou asked for leave?"

Chen Gang muttered something to himself, somewhat puzzled.

"Didn't they just complete their undercover mission and hand Zhao Zhihai over to the border guards?"

"He's out of town, hasn't even returned to the police station yet, and hasn't even written a formal case closure report."

"So you just submit the leave application online?"

Director Liu was also completely baffled.

He moved the mouse and clicked on the section for the reason for leave.

A line of text appeared on the screen:

The world is so big, I want to go out and see it.

Looking at this perfunctory reason for requesting leave, which is full of the air of an artsy young person.

Director Liu's lips twitched.

Chen Gang's eyes widened, speechless.

Old Zou, a veteran police officer with half his hair turned white, is not even very good at using a smartphone.

They actually wrote such a ridiculous reason on the leave application.

Director Liu continued pointing downwards.

There are two more leave requests below.

It belongs to Da Zhang and Lao Liu.

Zhang's reason for requesting leave was: "I've been having stomach problems lately and want to find a good bowl of authentic braised pork to soothe my upset stomach, so I'm requesting a few days off."

Old Liu's reason for taking leave was even simpler: "Leg cramps, need to rest and observe."

The other few were also quite casual.

Looking at these five or six applications submitted in unison.

The air in the office became quiet.

Chen Gang crossed his arms over his chest.

He pondered to himself.

My brain is working at lightning speed.

"These guys."

"I work diligently at the institute most of the time, but I hardly ever get a few days off throughout the year."

"This undercover mission just ended; the person hasn't shown their face yet."

"They've actually learned to circumvent the system's approval process and have everyone take leave?"

"And what kind of nonsensical reasons are these!"

He thought to himself: "Are Lao Zou and the others getting cocky after catching a drug dealer? They even took leave as a group. Are they trying to take a few days off after their great achievement?"

However, Captain Chen thought again, after all, Lao Zhang and his team had caught a big drug trafficker, which was really impressive!

Anyone who had experienced such a life-or-death situation and accomplished such an incredible feat would have been truly remarkable.

After your nerves are stretched to the limit, you need to take a few days to relax.

All they want right now is to take a few days off, have some braised pork, or go for a walk to relax.

Is this an unreasonable request?

Not at all excessive.

He looked at Director Liu.

Director Liu was sitting in his chair, looking at the reasons displayed on the screen.

He chuckled to himself.

Old Zou and his men had been with him for many years, and he knew their character best.

He's usually so honest and unassuming, so the reason he came up with this is probably because he's really exhausted.

Director Liu also shared the same thoughts as Chen Gang just now.

I feel like these people have gotten too cocky after making a contribution.

But I also feel that...

Even heroes need rest.

These grassroots police officers have worked tirelessly, enduring hardships to solve the case. Now that the situation is under control, it's time to give them a break.

Director Liu did not hesitate any longer.

He gripped the mouse.

The cursor was moved to the approval comments section in the system backend.

He then abused his authority.

I typed "Agreed, be careful" on the keyboard.

Then he waved his hand.

I clicked the confirmation button three times in a row.

The leave was approved very readily.

A few soft "click-clack" sounds.

The system interface has been refreshed.

All three leave requests have turned green and are now marked as "approved".

Director Liu took off his reading glasses and threw them on the table.
