Chapter 20: This Is Called Giving You an Offering!_1
Every person who becomes a police officer has the ultimate goal of wanting to become a detective.
Even in a different world, Su Xuan's dream remained unchanged.
However, he realized that he wasn't yet ready to become a detective. It was still a joke, given that he had at most two second-class merits. Moreover, his slight frame made him as fragile as a weakling.
If he were to join the Special Police Force, he'd probably be out sooner rather than later.
Better to climb the ranks slowly.
With these thoughts in mind, Su Xuan gave Old Mai an affirmative glance.
Old Mai: ...??
What is this kid trying to say?
In the end, Zhao Dongqiang was taken away by the bureau's personnel. After all, even keeping such a dangerous murderer in the station wasn't safe. It was the members of the Criminal Investigation Division who took him away and prepared to transfer him to prison.
Once his identity was confirmed, as a fugitive, Zhao Dongqiang's fate was to remain in custody.
As for Su Xuan, after receiving some praises, Old Mai saw him out of the police station.
"Go back and rest well."
"Make sure to recharge, you have to come to work tomorrow, right?"
Old Mai wasn't worried about anything now, except that Su Xuan might not get enough rest. Even if he didn't rest, he still wanted his capable subordinate to rest properly.
With these words, Old Mai's intentions became clear to everyone, and they all looked at Su Xuan with a smile, bursting into laughter.
"Yes, Su Xuan, go rest well. You're our capable assistant at the station."
"Whether we can secure a high bonus this year depends on you."
"Oh my, have you thought about it? You suddenly became so powerful."
"Look at how Old Mai is so pleased that he wants to hold you in his hand."
"It's because we became a fragile little ice cube. We have to be held in someone's hand, or else we might melt!"
The group of colleagues began teasing.
Old Mai remained composed and retorted immediately.
"If you want me to hold you in my hand, then show me some accomplishments!"
Hearing this, several officers waved their hands.
They knew their own worth.
"Never mind, no need to."
"It's good enough to catch a couple of thieves..."
The atmosphere became harmonious.
"Tomorrow I'll be on your shift. Make sure you rest well so you can lead me to another commendation! Our bonus for this quarter depends on you!"
With a grin, Zhou Qiang leaned over and said to Su Xuan.
Hearing this, Su Xuan rolled his eyes and immediately pushed his hand away. "Get lost, do you really think earning that bonus is that easy?"
That being said, Su Xuan actually did what he intended. He headed to the supermarket after work and purchased some essentials.
Having inherited the original host's memories, finding the original host's home was relatively easy. Fortunately, the original host didn't live with their parents, providing Su Xuan with some buffer time.
After buying daily necessities, Su Xuan returned home and rolled up his sleeves to start organizing. He packed the original host's belongings into several boxes, which he stacked in a guest room.
Although Su Xuan could continue using the original host's belongings, he felt that he should leave behind traces of the original host's life.
After finishing the tidying up, it was already dark outside.
Su Xuan didn't push himself. Even though his cooking skills were decent, he remembered that the original host was a disaster in the kitchen. If he inherited that trait, he'd be in trouble.
Takeout was the better option.
While waiting for the food delivery, Su Xuan took a shower and returned to devour the meal. He ate the food on the table like a gust of wind.
Afterward, he cleaned up and got ready for bed.
One could say that everything he had experienced that day was astonishing. He had crossed over, obtained a system, and apprehended two fugitives...
But truth be told, until this moment, Su Xuan wondered if he was still in a dream.
Lying in bed at this moment, he finally felt like he had truly crossed over, stepping into a world entirely unknown to him, becoming another version of himself in a different world.
"Stay strong, Su Xuan!"
Su Xuan spoke to himself, and the voice echoed in the darkness, constantly ringing in his ears.
From this moment on, he had truly become Su Xuan of this world. Fortunately, he was an orphan to begin with, without too many melodramatic memories to recall.
After a busy day, he was exhausted.
Almost as soon as he closed his eyes, Su Xuan fell asleep, only to be awakened by the cacophony of multiple alarm clocks the next morning.
In his dream-like state, Su Xuan sprang out of bed like a carp leaping out of water. After a moment of bewilderment, he finally realized that he seemed to have crossed over, as he gazed upon the unfamiliar surroundings.
The alarm that was currently ringing had been set by the original host.
Su Xuan, with a messy topknot, tidied up and dressed in his police uniform. He grabbed a bun and headed outside.
As for breakfast?
The station's breakfast was both delicious and affordable. Why miss out when there's a free meal?
"Su Xuan, you made it. I've brought you breakfast!"
As soon as he entered the station, Su Xuan was greeted by Zhou Qiang, who slung an arm around his shoulder and handed him breakfast. "Today, my friend, I'm counting on you!"
Did Zhou Qiang remember what happened yesterday?
Su Xuan shook his head helplessly, but he didn't decline the gesture.
Although the station's food was inexpensive, it still deducted from his meal card. If he could eat for free, why not?
That day, Su Xuan was partnered with Zhou Qiang. They hopped into a police car and began their patrol.
Seeing them leave, several officers who had been busy inside all stood up at the same time, watching them depart through the window.
"Do you think Su Xuan can pull off another big move this time?"
"What a joke. Do you really think criminals gather like a flock?"
"He just got lucky yesterday. At most, he might handle a minor case today. Who knows, after yesterday, he might not even get a small case."
"That's right... I think so too..."
Not only them, even Old Mai in the chief's office stood by the window, watching the police car leave the courtyard. He couldn't help but feel a bit hopeful.
"I wonder if this kid can catch a few more criminals for me."
As soon as this thought arose, he immediately shook his head, berating himself for being inefficient. He was starting to act superstitious, just like those inexperienced young officers.
"What are you thinking? Catching criminals isn't so simple."
"Getting older, getting more confused..."
The hushed whispers of the crowd didn't reach Su Xuan's ears. At this moment, he was seated in the passenger seat, munching on a bun.
To his surprise, the bun was filled with beef. Su Xuan raised an eyebrow, "You actually bought such a big spread. You got me a beef bun?"
"How much is left in your card, anyway?"
Considering that the original host typically ate a bowl of plain noodles every day...
Zhou Qiang was driving when he heard that. He turned around and looked at her expectantly." I'm still waiting for you to bring me some good luck. I'll definitely give you something delicious. This is called offering!"
Su Xuan was speechless.
Thank you. You did a good job. Don't do it next time.
