"No problem, I'll transfer it to you when I move there."

"Do you need my help with the luggage?"

"No, I don't have anything to move."

With the morning meeting over, another busy day begins.

It was fine during the day, Zhou Chen had nothing to do, he mainly helped his master Ye Wei with some work matters.

As an instructor, Ye Wei seldom goes out on patrol unless there are really not enough staff or she is needed to do work in certain situations. Normally, she stays in the station.

Although she is in the police station, it does not mean that Ye Wei's work is easy. In fact, she is one of the busiest people in the police station.

But recently she feels good. Although Zhou Chen is a newcomer, he learns very quickly and can help her with a lot of work. This has made her feel a lot more relaxed recently. She can finish her work before getting off work, does not have to work overtime, and can go back on time to take care of the children and the elderly.

Therefore, she valued Zhou Chen more and more, thinking that Zhou Chen's work ability was excellent and that he really had the potential to be an instructor. She even thought that Zhou Chen had more potential in office management than in front-line police work.

She also told this to the director Wang Shouyi, but when Wang Shouyi heard that Ye Wei wanted to train Zhou Chen to become an instructor, he was so scared that his hands were shaking.

Thinking of Zhou Chen's hatred of evil, if Zhou Chen were really made the instructor, wouldn't everyone in the police station become like him? This is not in line with his usual style.

He was fine with management, but he felt a little nervous and worried when he thought about letting Zhou Chen do ideological work for others. He felt that Zhou Chen was more suitable to be an instructor in the criminal police team and the special police team.

However, Wang Shouyi and Ye Wei were just speaking casually. After all, Zhou Chen was still a newcomer. Even if he really had the potential as Ye Wei said, it would be basically impossible for him to be promoted to an instructor within ten years. By that time, both of them would have retired long ago.

Soon it was time to get off work. Zhou Chen was busy helping Ye Wei with her work in her office. Seeing Ye Wei checking the time from time to time, he said, "Master, if you have something to do, go back first. Leave the rest to me."

Ye Wei refused without hesitation: "No way, this is my job. I'm already troubling you by asking you for help. How can I leave it all to you?"

"Master, you are being too polite. You are my master. You teach me skills and I help you with work. This is only natural. Even if I encounter problems, I can ask for help from the training center. If worst comes to worst, I can call you. It won't delay my work."

"Can……"

Ye Wei was obviously tempted, mainly because she had to take care of the children today and buy medicine and cook for the elderly at home.

"Don't worry, Master. Leave everything to me. You can go back quickly."

After Zhou Chen's persuasion, Ye Wei, who was worried, finally agreed. Before leaving, she asked Zhou Chen to call her out of concern.

After seeing Ye Wei off, Zhou Chen shook his head and continued to work.

He knew that his master's life was not easy. He and his wife were both only children. There were four elderly people in the family who needed care, and there were also two children.

Her husband is also busy at work. He is the type who gets paid more the more he works. If he wants to earn more, he needs to work overtime, so most of the burden of the family falls on Ye Wei.

Ye Wei's own parents were fine, they would only call her when they were really too busy, but her parents-in-law were different. They had no sympathy for her at all and would call her to urge her whenever there was something minor. This was something everyone in the institute knew.

Zhou Chen is a lonely man anyway, and he has learned Ye Wei's work, so he will help in any way he can. After all, Ye Wei is very good to him, and this little thing is nothing to him.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but Gao Chao suddenly walked into the office.

"Zhou Chen, are you still busy? You haven't eaten yet. Here, I got you some instant noodles."

"Captain Gao, why are you here?" Zhou Chen stood up.

Gao Suo asked, "Are you done with this? We have an operation tonight and we're short of manpower. Let's see if you're free."

"I'm free. I'll be done soon. Gao Suo, when does the mission start?"

"Don't worry, finish your work first, then eat the noodles. I'll call you downstairs for the meeting later."

"OK, no problem."

"Then you go ahead, I'll go down first."

Gao Chao waved his hand and walked out of the office. He was optimistic about Zhou Chen, so he came to call Zhou Chen when there was a task.

After Zhou Chen finished his work, he went downstairs to find Gao Chao, and was then dragged by Gao Chao to have a meeting with Zhihu. In fact, they just briefly talked about tonight's action, and the details would not be explained until they arrived at the destination.

Gao Chao clapped his hands and said, "Okay, we have said almost everything. Let's change into plain clothes and get ready to go."

"Yes."

Everyone dispersed, Zhou Chen and Zhao Jiwei went to change clothes together, and Zhao Jiwei seemed extremely excited.

"Zhou Chen, I've been in the station for so long, and I can finally go on a mission. It's a mission that Director Gao is in charge of. It must be a big case. That's great."

He dreams of solving cases. The community work these days has not made him depressed, but made him more eager. Therefore, he becomes extremely excited whenever there is an opportunity.

Zhou Chen comforted him, "Don't be too excited. Calm down, Officer Zhao."

"How can I be calm? My blood is boiling and I can't wait."

Zhou Chen found it funny to see Zhao Jiwei jumping around while changing clothes. This mentality really needs to be honed.

As soon as Zhou Chen changed his clothes and walked out, he heard a woman's roar coming from outside. He walked over curiously.

When he arrived, he saw a woman wearing glasses, pointing at Xia Jie and scolding her. Xia Jie stood there confused. Cheng Suo and Sun Qiancheng tried their best to stop the woman, but they still couldn't stop her from scolding.

In the end, Xia Jie was pulled away by Cheng, but the woman was still there, cursing and crying.

Seeing Xia Jie walking out with a stubborn and unwilling look on her face, Zhou Chen asked curiously, "What's going on, Xia Jie?"

Xia Jie said in a muffled voice: "Nothing, I'm going to get busy."

This scene seemed familiar. Zhou Chen pulled Sun Qiancheng over to ask questions and found out that the lady who had just scolded Xia Jie was named Wu. She came to report a case. It was said that her daughter was missing.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen immediately knew who this person was. She was a female doctor from the Second or Third Hospital, a tough woman who could make a lot of complaint calls. Xia Jie suffered a great loss at her hands. Not only was she slapped, but she was also forced to apologize to him in the end. It was even the director and instructor who personally led the team to apologize and reconcile.

When he saw this plot before, he was shocked. Is this what he calls close to reality?

Any normal person with his own thoughts would find this scene unbelievable. If the police station in real life handled problems like Ms. Wu's in this way, it would be a real mess.

Even though there is solid evidence of assaulting a police officer, they were threatened by Ms. Wu instead and had to apologize. Do they really think the police station is a charity that you can do whatever you want with?

Zhou Chen was just about to remind Xia Jie when he heard the call of climax. He didn't have time to find Xia Jie, so he could only tell Sun Qiancheng.

"Brother Sun, if Xia Jie goes with you to help Ms. Wu find her daughter, you have to be careful and don't let her be bullied by Ms. Wu."

"Oh, oh, okay."

Sun Qiancheng agreed in a daze, and only scratched his head after Zhou Chen disappeared.

"Could it be that what Li Dawei said is true, and Zhou Chen is really pursuing Xia Jie? That shouldn't be the case."

Zhou Chen got on the bus with the main force. In addition to Zhao Jiwei, Li Dawei and his master Chen Xincheng were also recruited.

They arrived at the destination quickly, but did not take any action immediately. Instead, they waited silently.

Zhao Jiwei, on the other hand, was very excited because he recognized this place. He had followed someone here before, so he thought he had guessed something and excitedly told Zhou Chen and Li Dawei about it.

Zhou Chen also realized that they were here to catch gamblers, so he looked at Li Dawei. This brother was going to be in trouble again.

As expected, in the police's surprise operation, the small casino was directly raided and no one involved in gambling escaped, including Li Dawei's father, Li Yisheng, who was caught by Li Dawei himself.

Zhou Chen witnessed this scene with his own eyes and then found Chen Xincheng.

"Brother Chen, come over and talk."

Chen Xincheng followed Zhou Chen to the side with a puzzled look on his face: "What's wrong?"

"Something happened. Among the people we arrested was Li Dawei's father."

"what?"

Chen Xincheng was stunned: "Really? Where?"

Zhou Chen pointed at Li Yisheng who was being escorted into the car and said, "Yes, that bald guy."

Chen Xincheng hurried over and took out his mobile phone. He had previously saved the video of Li Dawei beating people, which he could use for comparison now.

Seeing this comparison, his face immediately turned dark.

On the way back, Li Dawei sat at the back without saying a word. Zhou Chen sat next to him and patted his shoulder.

"Dawei, don't think about the worst yet."

Li Dawei remained silent. He was in a state of devastation at this moment. When he thought about his father being arrested for gambling, he felt cold in his heart.

Anger, regret, fear...

He was angry at his father's incompetence and also afraid that his police career might be coming to an end, so he simply couldn't listen to what Zhou Chen said.

Zhou Chen could also understand Li Dawei's current mood. Although he knew that Li Dawei would be fine in the end, he had no evidence now and could not say anything.

After returning to the police station, Chen Xincheng immediately made arrangements for Li Yisheng, and then went upstairs to discuss with the director Wang Shouyi.

As soon as Zhou Chen walked into the hall, Sun Qiancheng ran over in a hurry.

"Brother, something happened. Xia Jie was beaten."

"grass!"

Zhou Chen couldn't help but curse under his breath. Sure enough, some things were unavoidable. Xia Jie was unlucky to meet Ms. Wu.

He knew where Xia Jie was at this time, so he left the hall directly and came to the yard, where he saw Xia Jie sitting alone in the shadow at the corner of the corridor.

Xia Jie curled up in the dark alone. This was her habit. Ever since her father passed away, whenever she encountered problems and had no one to confide in, she would hide alone.

Her face had become red and swollen. The slap was quite severe and the person who was hit was stunned.

Just as she was feeling sorry for herself, suddenly, a red plastic bag appeared in her sight. Inside the bag were popsicles. She looked up in astonishment.

Chapter 1037: Comfort, Zhou Chen's Tough Attitude

"Zhou Chen?"

Xia Jie was very surprised when she saw Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen raised the popsicle in his hand: "Why, are you surprised to see me?"

Xia Jie asked: "How did you know? Did Sun Qiancheng tell you?"

"Yes, Sun Qiancheng said that you were slapped by that menopausal old woman, which made me angry. I was the only one who was not there at the time, otherwise I would have slapped her backhandedly to vent my anger on you."

"Pfft!"

Xia Jie couldn't help laughing, but quickly put away her smile: "You are the only one who knows how to brag."

Zhou Chen sat down next to her, took out a popsicle from the plastic bag and handed it to Xia Jie.

Xia Jie took the popsicle and asked in confusion: "How do you know that I like to eat popsicles when I'm sad?"

"Guess."

Zhou Chen smiled slightly. Of course he would not say that he knew this from watching TV dramas. Then he wrapped the popsicle in a towel and handed it to Xia Jie.

"Put this on your face, otherwise it might get even more swollen tomorrow."

Only when I sat next to her could I see more clearly that half of Xia Jie's face was red and swollen. It was obviously not an accidental hit. It would be impossible for her to be hit so hard if it was an accidental hit.

"Crack!"

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Xia Jie took the towel wrapped in the popsicle and was about to apply it on her face, but she saw Zhou Chen taking pictures of her with his mobile phone. She was so anxious that she quickly covered her face and shouted in frustration.

"Zhou Chen, what do you want to do? Delete it, delete it quickly."

Zhou Chen calmly put away his phone: "Nothing, just taking a photo as a souvenir. Okay, just leaving some evidence. I think Ms. Wu is not a good person. If she does something wrong, we will sue her for assaulting a police officer."

"Can……"

"Don't worry, just put on your face."

Zhou Chen grabbed Xia Jie's hand, pressed the towel on her cheek, then took out a popsicle and started eating it with Xia Jie.

After eating almost half of the popsicle, Xia Jie whispered, "Thank you, Zhou Chen."

Zhou Chen finished his popsicle in two or three bites: "Don't be so polite to me. You said you would move to me. I have already packed up your room. When are you going to move in?"

"tonight."

"tonight?"

"Yes, I drove here today. My gifts are in the car. I will stay at your place later."

"That's great, we'll go back together later."

As the two were talking, they saw Li Dawei hurriedly walking out, holding a phone and venting angrily.

Xia Jie asked in confusion: "What happened to him?"

Zhou Chen told Xia Jie what happened tonight, and Xia Jie immediately showed sympathy. Her mother at home was a worry-free person, and Li Dawei's father was not much better. It was true that every family had its own problems.
