above the point of the knife

Chapter 426 Promotion
After a day of rest, Zhou Sen finally recovered and was able to go to work.

The discussion about Zhou Sen and Bai Yulan's full moon banquet has just begun. After all, it takes time for information to spread.

In this era, radio is only available to rich people, and its use will be restricted, while newspapers can be said to be the only way to obtain information from the outside world.

News is also time-sensitive. As long as something new happens and attracts people's attention, it is easy for people to forget what happened yesterday.

What's more, in this chaotic era, shocking news may happen every day. No matter how popular Zhou Sen is, in the eyes of many people, he is a son who "eats soft food".

The most widely circulated and most credible version is that after Bai Yulan encountered a business crisis, she carefully selected a person who could help her bring her back to life and who could be controlled by her.

Zhou Sen, a flirtatious little policeman, naturally became her primary target, and then went through a series of manipulations.

Zhou Sen was trapped by Bai Yulan.

The more privacy is revealed and the gossip involves the love between men and women, the more it can attract people's inner curiosity.

"This "Xiaoxi Daily" is dedicated to exposing the privacy of celebrities and creating pornographic news. It is not a serious publication, and it has no records in the police department. It does not involve politics. Sometimes, people like to hear the content it publishes. , So, as long as no one comes to our door, we won’t bother with it.” Anna was wearing a maroon tight business suit, with a protruding front and back, especially the open "V" neckline, and the deep groove , It's so eye-catching that you can't pull it out.

It was obvious that Anna was wearing this outfit on purpose today, and even leaned towards Zhou Sen in return.

If this was the self in the past, I am afraid that he would not be able to hold it anymore, but now, his restraint and concentration have long been Wuxia Amon.

Although Anna is good, their relationship cannot continue forever, and they must make up their minds.

"Let's seal up this "Xiaoxi Bao" first." Zhou Sen said, "I'm not that generous, but I'm afraid these contents are not imagined out of thin air, check to see if the person who wrote the article is related to someone been touched."

"Yes." Anna nodded, "I'll make arrangements now to shut down Xiaoxi Bao immediately and arrest the relevant people."

"There's no need to arrest people. Find the author who wrote the article, bring it back and ask for a question, and clarify the matter. It is enough for the person in charge and the author to stay in the classroom for a few days." Zhou Sen added.

"So easy to let go?"

"What else can we do, fabricate a crime and send him to prison for a few years?" Zhou Sen asked back.

"That way is not necessary."

"Okay, just teach me a lesson. A dirty newspaper is not a big deal. The key is the people behind the scenes. That's the one I want to crack down on," Zhou Sen said.

"Do you know who it is?"

"I don't know now, I won't know until you bring the person back and ask."

"I thought you knew." Anna shook her head in disappointment, turned around, twisted her waist and went out.

Zhou Sen really knew that the only person who could know the situation of his "destiny" with Bai Yulan was the one who plotted against Bai Yulan behind the scenes.

At the full moon banquet, he obviously would not send invitations to invite him, so it is very possible for him to play tricks behind his back and ruin his and Bai Yulan's reputation.

……

dong dong!

"Come in." As soon as Zhou Sen looked up, Jin Suying with wavy hair pushed the door and walked in. Before he got close, he smelled a strong smell of perfume.

"Secretary Jin, what's the matter?" Zhou Sen raised his head and asked. He is now a police officer. Although the police uniform has not been changed, it is already a fact that she is one level higher than Jin Suying.

"Zhou Sen, Section Chief Akiyama asked me to come over and ask you to come over." Jin Suying didn't understand that Akiyama Nosuke wanted her to come over in person to invite Zhou Sen to come over in person. Before, it was enough to call someone directly.

"Oh, okay, I'll go right away." Zhou Sen nodded. Although the police rank was promoted, his position has not changed, and he is still Akiyamanosuke's subordinate.

"Zhou Sen-jun is here, please sit down." Akiyama's tone was obviously more polite, "Suying, make a cup of tea for Zhou Sen-jun."

"Yes." Jin Suying nodded in agreement and went out.

Zhou Sen didn't sit down right away. He couldn't get mad for a while. Even if he was promoted to a sergeant, he wouldn't be a "fart" in front of the Japanese police. After all, in the government agencies of Manchukuo, the Japanese Just born superior.

Even a senior official of Manchukuo will bow and salute when he sees Japanese of the same level, is he considered a ball?

Of course, the psychology is contempt, but if you commit yourself to being a thief, you can only compromise. If you can't bear the grievances, you might as well join the anti-Japanese team directly, and just do it with real knives and guns.

In his position, one has to be careful.

I can't let Akiyama's help find the slightest mistake in himself.

Zhou Sen's usual humble attitude really satisfied Akiyamanosuke, which can be seen from the inadvertent and imperceptible upturn of the corner of his mouth.

In the business of intelligence, especially undercover, the best thing to do is to observe the situation, and then do the analysis.

This is almost a subconscious instinct. It is a miracle that a Ma Daha can survive for 24 hours if he goes undercover.

Akiyamanosuke is not only an intelligence expert, but also a criminal investigation expert. Otherwise, if such an incompetent person was placed in the Secret Service Division, he would have been pushed down a long time ago, and Shibuya Saburo would not have chosen him to succeed his position.

"Section Chief Akiyama, you came to me, but do you have an order?" Zhou Sen asked.

"Of course, first of all, congratulations to Mr. Zhou Sen for your promotion to Sergeant Sergeant." Akiyamanosuke smiled slightly, and first said congratulations to Zhou Sen.

"This subordinate's promotion is pure luck. According to the rules, it's not my turn." Zhou Sen said humbly.

Akiyamanosuke nodded: "It's very good that you have a clear understanding. However, since the promotion order has come down, according to the rules, a uniform of the rank of sergeant has to be issued, and a promotion announcement must be issued."

"Chief, I'm only on a temporary basis in the police department. This announcement is unnecessary. I don't want to occupy everyone's public resources." Zhou Sen said hastily.

"You want to keep a low profile, I can understand that, but sometimes, you have to show what you should. You are still a member of the Police Department, and then you can do things in the name of the Police Department. Identity is very important, and I don't need it Tell me more?" Akiyama nosuke said.

"The subordinates will listen to the section chief." Zhou Sen hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Simply make an announcement, and hold a small-scale promotion ceremony for you to be a sergeant. Officers above the section chief will participate. Just this afternoon, in the conference room of the Police Department, Chief Bai and Chief Matsuda will attend." Qiu Shan Nosuke said.

"Yes." Can Zhou Sen refuse?
"By the way, your group of subordinates can also attend. Let them all witness that the police department is capable and capable, and the rewards for those who have meritorious service are not stingy."

"Understood, I'll go back and inform them."

"After being promoted to Sergeant Sergeant, according to your police rank, you can be the Section Chief or even the Section Chief. However, in view of your special situation, the Police Department will not assign you an actual responsible job. You will be given two options. The first is One, stay in the secret service inspection unit and continue to do your current job. Anyway, it won’t waste much of your time. The second choice is to go to the secret service sub-office, and all your team members can be transferred with you. As for where, what? Arrangements are up to Kageyama-kun." Akiyamanosuke mentioned his next arrangement.

The so-called secret service branch is another name for the Security Bureau. Although the Security Bureau operates independently, the director of the Security Bureau is usually the deputy director of the Police Department.

That is to say, Matsuda Kikuo is also the director of the Security Bureau, but there is also a main person in charge of the Security Bureau.

This person is now Kageyama Jiro.

In fact, the Security Bureau is Kageyama Jiro's territory, and Matsuda Kikuo is similar to Director Bai of the Police Department.

Of course, Director Bai is different from Matsuda Kikuo, the head of the Security Bureau. Matsuda is Japanese after all.

The Japanese under the police department can despise Bai Enming, the director, but the Japanese in the security bureau dare not really confront Matsuda Junan.

Zhou Sen had never thought about going to the Security Bureau. Akiyama Nosuke had suggested this kind of proposal before, but he didn't want to go, because going to the Security Bureau at that time would definitely give him some cases that he didn't want to take.

But it may be different now. Going to the Security Bureau by myself is similar to working in the Secret Service Division. It's just a second job, with an identity, and the essential work is still in the Special Intelligence Room.

But Akiyamanosuke gave him two choices, which shows that he still wants to stay in the Secret Service Section by himself. After all, as long as he has any "merits" in the Secret Service Section, the Secret Service Section can also get a little bit of credit. communicate.

Once Zhou Sen goes to the Security Bureau, and the Security Bureau has its own office, it will be easy for the Police Department to come over...

He can still contact Shibuya Saburo at any time, and Akiyama nosuke doesn't want to lose this communication channel that can lead directly to Xinjing.

"Chief, I have done a good job in the secret service department. Everyone treats me very well, and I get along well with everyone. This can't be changed if it doesn't change. Besides, I still have a lot of things to do. I have to be familiar with the people and things over there..."

"Kageyama-kun mentioned to me several times that he wanted to transfer you to assist him in his work?" Akiyamanosuke grinned, and his smile was happier than before.

"Officer Yingshan does take care of his subordinates a lot, but his subordinates are Manchurians. Even if they go to the Security Bureau, they may only have the opportunity to be left behind."

"If Kageyama-kun hears your words, he will be unhappy." Akiyamanosuke laughed.

"This subordinate is also telling the truth. You can't just say something. If you go there, you can't meet your expectations. When the time comes, you will live up to the trust of Chief Kageyama."

"Well, what you said makes sense." Akiyamanosuke nodded, "Okay, then you can stay in my secret service department."

"Thank you, Chief Akiyama." Zhou Sen bowed slightly, "This subordinate will take his leave first."

……

Zhou Sen's promotion to Sergeant Sergeant was a great joy. Cheng Yunfeng and others were overjoyed when they heard the news.

Youdao is one person who attains Taoism and ascends to heaven, Zhou Sen is promoted, and those of them who are subordinates will naturally have a chance.

Moreover, any superior employs people closely to his original subordinates. The more promising the boss, the subordinate will naturally be the same, unless he is not liked by the boss.

"Don't publicize it everywhere, and don't act too happy. My promotion this time is due to luck. It doesn't conform to the rules. It is easy to arouse the jealousy and dissatisfaction of others. Keep a low profile." Zhou Sen specially warned.

Don't remind me, this group of people can spread the word throughout the police department in the blink of an eye.

He just got a pair of dragon and phoenix twins, and he will be promoted in a blink of an eye. How many people will be jealous of this, especially those who are eagerly waiting for a place. The Bingcheng Police Department is one less.

A radish, a pit, whoever occupies it, it is his.

……

Seeing Zhou Sen's promotion order with her own eyes, Anna showed a hint of envy. She joined the intelligence agency of the Kwantung Army earlier than Zhou Sen, and made a lot of contributions, but it was very difficult for her to be promoted. Of course, she It is related to being a woman.

In addition to the issue of status, although the Manchus are the lowest, the Japanese implement a policy of manchurianism, so they rely more on the Manchurians who are willing to work for the Japanese, giving them higher status and benefits.

Zhou Sen is one of their carefully selected "agents".

Anna's current police rank is also a police lieutenant, but it is very difficult for her to be promoted to a police officer. Even if she gets the qualifications, it will take ten years. The chances are very slim. Of course, all of this is based on the fact that Manchukuo can still exist until then. under the premise.

The promotion ceremony was held in the afternoon as scheduled. At two o'clock, the large conference room of the Police Department, and all the Japanese police officers at the division chief level at home participated.

Those from the Inspection Unit of the Secret Service Division were also allowed to attend.

Director Bai Enming and Deputy Director Matsushima Junan both attended Zhou Sen's promotion ceremony, and both directors also gave a short speech.

Then there are a series of ceremonies, and "swearing" and so on. I don't need to repeat these, anyway, they are all words against my will.

Of course, Zhou Sen was also arranged to take a photo with the two directors after the promotion and gave a simple promotion speech.

Zhou Sen's promotion ceremony was held suddenly, and many people didn't know about it until they entered the conference room.

Zhou Sen was promoted to a police officer at the young age of 24, which was unprecedented in the history of police in Bingcheng.

The speed of this promotion is almost like riding a rocket. It is probably unique. He has a rich wife, a pair of lovely children, and now he has entered the top ranks of the police force. He is a big winner in life.

"Xiao Mori, treat me." After the meeting was over, Lin Dakuan directly pulled Zhou Sen and asked him to treat him to dinner, with an attitude of "if you don't agree, he won't let go".

He is really jealous, how many years he has struggled as a police officer, but he got involved with him 20 years younger than him, maybe he will become a police officer in the future, or even a higher-level police officer.

The future is boundless.

Even if you don't flatter, you can't offend him.

PS: I recommend a new book by Nen Miao: "Civilization: Passing the World", author: Fan Zi said, newcomer author, but experienced in writing, very good, worth reading.
