Winning over fellow villagers

  The ordinary black uniform that couldn't be more ordinary suddenly became exceptionally profound in Wen Qian's impression. She had always thought that only police like herself could deal with those thieves, but these constabulary rushed to the front and Yu Fei's troops quickly controlled the scene. All the gambling equipment and capital were confiscated, and all the living and dead were transported onto trucks. The mortuary of the constabulary, which hadn't stored corpses for a long time, was estimated to be overcrowded.

  One night, three top large casinos were sealed off. Nearly a hundred bandits were shot dead by the constabulary, and over 300 people were arrested. The amount of confiscated goods was so massive that the constabulary couldn't transport it all, having to entrust freight companies for transportation. The corpses required refrigerated trucks, while evidence needed container trucks. Various gambling tables and equipment were also huge in size. This night was the busiest night ever for all constables since enlistment, with no torment from military officers but only heavy tasks.

  One night, three of the largest casinos were raided in a row. Too many casino staff, gamblers and thugs were caught, but there were too few constabulary to continue arresting people. Moreover, the detention center at the constabulary's barracks was already overcrowded, and they had to guard suspects, protect evidence warehouses, and maintain combat effectiveness. Yu Fei would not expand the operation indefinitely, and the tens of millions of yuan in cash seized now were enough for him to report his achievements to his superiors.

  The night in Lion City was still bustling with lights and revelry, and other casinos hadn't closed their doors to avoid the storm. Instead, many regular customers of the three sealed casinos had changed venues to gamble, and some medium-sized casinos saw a surge in revenue. Various criminal organizations involved in drug trafficking and arms sales continued to make money, completely unaffected by Yu Fei's actions. After signing a stack of documents at the military camp, Yu Fei walked out of the barracks, while Wen Qian was still sitting in her off-road vehicle listening to music. The wind blowing from the sea that night was exceptionally cool, and it was very comfortable inside the car as well. Moreover, having seen the military police arrest so many people today, she was too excited to sleep, so she hadn't left either. Yu Fei sat back in her car, "Tonight, we arrested so many people, I think the local gambling industry hasn't collapsed yet, and my detention room is already overcrowded. The evidence warehouse can barely fit all the slot machines, and those roulette wheels and other gambling tools are even bigger than pool tables. The card tables are larger than ping-pong tables, it's really taking up too much space."

  "There's only money that doesn't take up space, right?" Wen Qian said on purpose. Yu Fei said: "The case you mentioned I haven't had time to deal with yet, now I must start from the simple ones, directly hitting the smuggling of drugs and weapons is too difficult for me as a newly graduated constable. Besides, catching gamblers is relatively easy, but preparing evidence and materials for prosecution is really difficult. Prosecuting them for gathering to gamble still requires a lot of evidence, prosecuting the operators of the gambling den also takes time, I don't know if we can complete the judicial process within the detention period limit. What if the local prosecutor causes trouble? If the judge is bribed, it's even harder to handle."

  The problem at hand is already very complicated, and Yu Fei has not yet found a better solution. He only knows that fighting is not the answer, but tomorrow he will have to submit a report and apply for approval. The current situation suggests that they will need to rebuild the detention center from scratch, which will require at least one engineering battalion to assist. There are many people to be arrested, but there is no local prison with enough space, so it's not possible to keep them in the detention center for a long time after the trial. Additionally, the evidence warehouse also needs to be expanded, as Yu Fei has confiscated a large number of items from the local casino.

  "You have to deal with so many things, originally these are not what you should do personally. Will you write those complicated legal documents? Such as indictment, case filing report, case closing report, indictment, and penalty decision for violating the Public Security Administration Punishments Law." Wen Qian knew that the garrison and police had to write similar things, Yu Fei said: "These are all form-based documents, just fill in the blanks on the document."

  "Looks like you're not bad at this, there shouldn't be any tasks for today. You're treating my car like your command vehicle and me like your personal driver, isn't that a bit too luxurious? I've been a cop longer than you, and you're ordering me around like this, can't I just drive the car?" Wen Qian was thinking of asking for some compensation, why should she be driving him around in her car, after all, she wasn't his subordinate. Yu Fei immediately said: "Look at you, dressed so neatly, looking so pretty, why get yourself covered in blood? What if you get hurt while assisting us with our duties, I wouldn't be able to explain it to the local police chief, and your parents might come after me again, I wouldn't be able to afford it. I'm not giving out compensation, is that right? Can you go into a hail of bullets?"

  "What's the point of me being a driver then?"

  "Hey, you drive wherever you want and stop at any hotel entrance, I'll go in. You can eat or drink whatever you like, consider it my treat, okay?" Yu Fei used to make a lot of money, all of which was earned by being someone else's mercenary, but after enrolling in military school, he didn't have the chance to splurge with this money. Now that he has some free time, he's finally able to spend it, and he's not stingy at all.

  "You'd better not regret it." Wen Qiang started the car and sped off towards the most luxurious hotel in the city. Yu Fei had a credit card in his pocket, so he didn't care about spending money. In the future, he would rely on winning over the police to work with him, so it wasn't bad to start by pulling her over. A good man needs three helpers, and playing solo is not feasible.

  Sitting in the Western restaurant of the hotel, Yu Fei didn't even look at the menu. "Today, you order, I'm not stingy but just don't waste, I heard that Bill Gates, the richest man, doesn't waste either. Moreover, our country requires us soldiers to be loyal, brave and frugal. I'll only have two bottles of wine."

  Wen Qian was slowly looking at the menu, the dishes here were very expensive and not something a small police officer like her could afford to eat normally. She felt that each dish should be savored, after all, this wasn't bribery or embezzlement from her unit. Yu Fei said to the waiter: "We'll have a bottle of Louis XIII cognac and a bottle of Chivas Regal." Because the wine was really expensive, the waiter immediately said: "You need to pay first if you want to order these two bottles of wine."

  "No problem." Yu Fei handed him a credit card.

  The waiter left one to continue ordering, and the other went to fetch wine. Wen Qian ordered a few dishes but didn't know how much the wine cost. She quickly flipped through the wine prices, and Yu Fei said: "No need to look, these two wines are not expensive if bought in a store, but here they're at least 6,000 euros."

  The waiter standing by smiled, actually the waiter was very clear that generally those who drank this wine didn't know how much it cost. Those who came to the hotel to drink were mostly treated to drinks and few paid themselves. Some people even gave this wine as a gift, so the drinkers naturally didn't need to know the price. This young man surprisingly knew the store's price, he must have sold such wine in both hotels and stores. The dishes hadn't been served yet, but the wine was already brought up, the waiter still wrapped the bottle with a white towel and slowly poured a little into the cup. Yu Fei saw them pouring wine according to the training requirements and felt it was very troublesome, "Put the wine down, I don't like others pouring for me."

  The waiter didn't know the real reason why he had to pour his own drink, thinking that someone wanted to whisper something and immediately retreated to the side. Yu Fei picked up the glass and downed the brandy in one gulp, "If you're not used to drinking brandy, you can have some red wine instead, but don't learn from me how to drink it like this, you'd better add more ice cubes so you won't get drunk and be unable to drive."

  After the dishes were served, he ate a few mouthfuls and asked: "Do you plan to deal with the casino first?"

  "It's not that I have some profound plan, it's just that this is the best thing to do. Let's not talk about work for now, it's rare for me to be able to relax like this. We can chat about something else. I was on the verge of collapse when I was in military school, every day was training until I was dead tired, making it seem like we were going to war tomorrow. I just got out and didn't know much about the outside world, so you can tell me more about things I don't know later." Yu Fei tried not to talk about work, thinking about it made him anxious, wanting to achieve something but having no idea what that was, he only realized how naive his previous thoughts were after he arrived.

  "No work talk, let's talk about you, do you have a girlfriend?" Wen Qian guessed he didn't, seeing how efficient he was at his job, not like someone who had time for dating. Yu Fei said while eating Western food: "Nowadays, who'd want to date a soldier? The army is often sent abroad on peacekeeping missions, sometimes for half a year, sometimes for a whole year. Or they're stationed in remote areas. I'm already lucky to be assigned here, I don't know who would want me. What if the UN wants to send peacekeeping police or troops and they choose me because I've never been out before? That'd be impossible."

  "I'll introduce you to a few, do you want to meet them?" Wen Qian could also guess that he didn't want to meet her, but in fact she really wanted to introduce herself to him. However, this newcomer had just arrived and was stirring up a storm of cracking down on the local crime syndicate, and this storm wouldn't subside anytime soon, so he probably didn't have time to find a girlfriend either. "Let's talk about it after I'm done with this busy period, this job is easy to mess up, we just need to wait for the police station to call us for support before taking action, but wanting to do it well isn't easy, you wouldn't want me to introduce myself to you, would you?"

  She was a bit nervous about being hit on by him, but she was happy in her heart and couldn't say it out loud. They had just met for a few minutes, "What's the point of introducing me to you? If I were to be your girlfriend, I'd probably have to be a part-time driver too. At least I still have a house and a car, but you're new here and have nothing. Introducing me to you would clearly put me at a disadvantage."

  "You're very clever." Yu Fei held a knife and fork, lowering his head to eat hastily without regard for appearances. After finishing, he went to drink his favorite wine. He also knew that brandy was easy to get drunk on if not served with ice, so he put many ice cubes in the glass before filling it with wine. As he drank, he said: "Because you're clever, I'm afraid you won't look for me. If you were my girlfriend, it wouldn't just be as a driver, but also possibly as a landlord. I really don't have a house; all these years I haven't bought one because I didn't know where to settle down. What if I get transferred and end up not being in the local area? Also, since I've dealt such a heavy blow to the crime syndicate, they'll definitely seek revenge against me. You'd better change to an armored car; otherwise, following us will be very dangerous."

  "Bulletproof cars are expensive, why should I buy this." Wen Qian found that this guy was talking nonsense, saying things that didn't make sense and asking her to buy a car for him. It was clear that he wanted to ask her out, but instead he was making her his landlord, why shouldn't he just buy a villa for himself? Was this really what he meant?
