Xu Bai dodged, as if he had expected this scene. He nimbly dodged Team Leader Zhou’s nutritional beverage attack.
This time, Team Leader Zhou did not even wipe the water from the corner of his mouth. He widened his eyes and looked at Xu Bai, as if he did not hear what Xu Bai said clearly.
“What did you say?”
“I said I’m going to inspect the institute.”
Team Leader Zhou opened his mouth and lowered his head to look at his wolfberry cup. Then, he looked up at Xu Bai and fell silent for a while before he screwed up the remaining one-third of his cup.
Never mind.
He would drink it later, in case it was wasted again.
Team Leader Zhou took a deep breath. After closing the cup, he looked up at Xu
Bai. “Do you know what you’re talking about? Internal Affairs Department? Please, do you know what Internal Affairs Department is?” Xu Bai shrugged.
“I know. I specialize in checking on my own people.”
“That’s right. The Internal Affairs Department is investigating us, not them.”
“If there’s a crime, why can’t we investigate?”
“You’re suspended.”
When Xu Bai heard this, he touched his chin and looked thoughtfully at Team Leader Zhou, who was sitting behind his desk. “So… Boss, you knew about this. Then, you sat behind your desk and drank wolfberry tea, allowing your most capable subordinate to be humiliated by the cold-faced tiger outside?”
Su Meng widened her eyes and looked at Team Leader Zhou.
In an instant.
The admiration in Su Meng’s eyes was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it quickly turned into a questioning and disdainful gaze.
After all, whether the boss was good or not was not something that he could brag about. Instead, it was to see if this boss could really protect his little brother from the wind and rain.
It was obvious.
Team Leader Zhou was not only blocking the wind and rain, but he was also holding an umbrella at the side. He was even happily drinking his wolfberry tea. He ran to the side and looked at Xu Bai, who was drenched in the rain, with interest.
In a single sentence…
You’re not fit to be the big brother!
Team Leader Zhou glanced at Su Meng’s meaningful gaze and looked at Xu Bai speechlessly.
“Brother Bai, can I call you Brother Bai? I want to shelter you from the wind and rain, but you didn’t give me a chance. You beat him up so badly, but the Internal Affairs Department didn’t take you away. I’ve already helped you. How else do you want me to help you?”
“Sign it.”
“What?”
Xu Bai was already prepared. With a wave of his right hand, he took out the document that he had just printed and handed it to Team Leader Zhou. “I want to investigate the case.”
Team Leader Zhou lowered his head and looked at the investigation approval document that Xu Bai handed over. The corners of his mouth twitched as he looked up at Xu Bai.
Yes.
Xu Bai was suspended.
But…
That was a suspension for the people outside the police station. As long as Xu Bai was not fired, he would still be an agent of the 38th Precinct Major Crimes Investigation Unit of the Feng City Police Department.
As for investigations within the police station, they could only be initiated with the signature of the leader of the Major Crimes Investigation Unit. As for who the leader of the Major Crimes Investigation Unit appointed to investigate, there was no requirement for suspension.
Team Leader Zhou felt a toothache.
“You’re going to face the Internal Affairs Department head-on.”
“They messed with me first.”
Xu Bai shrugged. “To borrow the words of that cold-faced tiger, she only appeared to solve problems after they had problems. Now, it’s their turn to have problems. I’ll help them solve their problems.”
You do it first, I do it next.
This was very fair!
When the cold-faced tiger An Ya and her Internal Affairs Department first found trouble with him, Xu Bai had long wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge.
But…
Although the office was in the same building as the Major Crimes Investigation Unit, due to authority issues, the two of them did not interact much. Even the elevator and the office had a separate one.
Hence, this caused Xu Bai to not have the chance to find trouble.
Right now?
Wasn’t this the opportunity?
Team Leader Zhou looked at the documents in front of him and at Xu Bai, who was standing in front of his desk expressionlessly. Not only did his teeth hurt, but even his stomach began to hurt.
He looked at Xu Bai tentatively and suggested, “Why don’t I make a call first and get Team Leader An to come down?” Xu Bai nodded with a smile.
Team Leader Zhou heaved a sigh of relief.
The next second.
Xu Bai said to Su Meng, “Mengmeng, while our boss is on the phone, let me tell you why our boss cooks for sister-in-law every day…”
Before he could finish his sentence.
Team Leader Zhou stood up with a bang and grabbed Xu Bail s shoulder. He looked at Xu Bai with a smile. “Alright, I’ll sign it for you.”
Xu Bai smiled and looked at Team Leader Zhou, whose face was filled with smiles. “Don’t force yourself, boss.”
“Not at all.”
Team Leader Zhou smiled and shook his head as he grabbed the document. He took out his fountain pen and signed his name with a few strokes. Then, he looked up at Xu Bai. “Brother Bai, look, do you need anything else?”
“I need another 32 police investigation warrants!”
“…How many?”
“Thirty-two!”
Including the cold-faced An Ya, there were a total of thirty-two agents in the Internal Affairs Inspection Office. It was just nice that they could wipe out the entire Internal Affairs Inspection Office.
If searching someone’s room required an investigation order signed by the court, then searching an agent’s room only required an investigation order signed by the police station.
This clause was something that every law enforcement agent had to sign when they entered the service. The right to recognize a police investigation order was the same as the right to a court investigation order.
Team Leader Zhou couldn’t hold it in anymore. “That’s impossible.”
You must be joking.
Although he had the right to open 32 investigation warrants, would he still have a good life after starting these 32 investigation warrants?
Team Leader Zhou refused.
“No way!”
“I really can’t.”
“This old man is unyielding. I’ll spit on you and nail you down. If I say no, I won’t.”
“Okay.”
Xu Bai was as straightforward as before. He turned to look at Su Meng.
“Mengmeng, do you want to know why our boss is nicknamed Nero Zhou?
Come, let me tell you. It’s because of a year…”
Team Leader Zhou’s brows twitched and he hurriedly interrupted, “I’ll give it to you!”
Xu Bai stopped talking in time and looked at Team Leader Zhou with a smile. “Unyielding? Ha!”
Was that all?
Where were his iron bones?
Where was his dignity??
Team Leader Zhou’s eyebrows twitched. He panted heavily and glared at Xu
Bai. “Brother Bai, I’ve already called you Brother Bai. If you want to play, fine. I’ll let you play, but can you not play so big? 32 investigation warrants? That’s impossible. At most, three. But you can’t have An Ya’s investigation warrant.”
Xu Bai smiled and looked at Team Leader Zhou. “Three investigation warrants. Are you sure? Don’t regret it.”
Team Leader Zhou sat back in his seat and looked like he was in a mess. “I can only give you three. There’s not even one more. After you’re done enjoying yourself, you don’t care about anything. I can’t do that. I have to count on my retirement fund.’
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and looked at Team Leader Zhou, who was in a terrible state.
Five seconds later.
A bright smile appeared on Xu Bails face. He grabbed the investigation warrant that Team Leader Zhou had just signed and turned to walk out of the door.
“Mengmeng, 10th floor, let’s capture them. Let’s go!”
I’m coming!!”
