Time for communication and learning always flies by.

Half an hour later.

Guan Feng and Professor Wang have finished verifying each other's statements.

Just then, Huang Lili knocked on the door and came in, saying, "The case has been completed, Captain. What do you think?"

Guan Feng said, "Make three copies: one for Director Chen's office, one for the branch captain's office, and one for the brigade. Tell the brothers to change their clothes and get ready to go downstairs. Tonight, we're going to the seafood restaurant! Everyone, eat and drink your fill!"

Huang Lili laughed and said, "Okay! Everyone can't wait."

Guan Feng smiled and turned to look at Director Chen and the branch captain, saying, "Director Chen, branch captain, please?"

He then said to Professor Wang, "Professor Wang, your words are more valuable than ten years of study. Do you have time tonight? How about we go to a seafood restaurant? We won't drink, just eat, and it'll be over quickly."

Professor Wang said, "Okay! I'll go have a meal with you all."

Guan Feng smiled and led the three out of the office.

He then arranged for Huang Lili to drive her own car, and the others also drove two cars each, making a total of three cars heading straight to the seafood restaurant.

......

Seafood restaurant.

Huang Lili had booked the private room in advance.

The group sat down one by one.

Director Chen should have sat in the main seat, but he declined and gave the main seat to Professor Wang.

Scholars, after all!

Often, people place great emphasis on these matters of saving face.

Director Chen and the branch captain stood on the left and right respectively, and then Guan Feng sat down around Director Chen. After that, everyone took their seats one after another.

It was almost nine o'clock, and everyone was starving.

After Director Chen finished speaking, everyone began to enjoy their meal.

Because we didn't drink alcohol, the meal was eaten very quickly. We chatted and ate heartily, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Director Chen said to Gao Dacheng and Liu Shengguo, "I've looked at the list submitted by the Third Squadron. The brigade agrees, and I agree in principle as well!"

Gao Dacheng and Liu Shengguo quickly put down their chopsticks and sat up straight to listen to Director Chen's instructions.

Director Chen continued, "Dacheng has been following Guan Feng for only two months, but he has already passed the assessment in micro-expression analysis. He is more than qualified to be promoted to deputy squadron leader. Shengguo, you have been following Guan Feng the longest and have learned all the skills most thoroughly. You are the epitome of accumulating knowledge and skills before making a breakthrough!"

"I'm saying this in the hope that you will continue to work hard! Being the deputy squadron leader is just the beginning. In the future, Xiao Guan will gradually shift his focus to the management of the brigade, and you all need to step up your efforts."

"The Third Squadron is a place that produces talented people. As long as you are willing, there are plenty of positions waiting for you!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Dacheng and Liu Shengguo both stood up excitedly.

Gao Dacheng raised his glass, excitedly saying, "Director Chen, I toast you! From now on, I will definitely work diligently and conscientiously under your leadership and the management of the detachment and brigade!"

He then downed three large glasses in a row.

Liu Shengguo was tongue-tied, so he said thank you and followed Gao Dacheng's example by downing three cups in a row.

Seeing this, Guan Feng smiled and said, "Alright, everyone sit down. What Director Chen just said applies not only to you two deputy squadron leaders who are about to be promoted, but also to everyone else! As you can all see, in just two months since the Third Squadron was established, it has produced one deputy battalion commander and two deputy squadron leaders. This is a place that produces talent!"

"If you all want to improve, the Third Squadron is the best choice for you. I would also like to make a statement here in front of the leaders: whether it is micro-expression analysis or other skills, as long as you are willing to learn, I will cooperate and exchange ideas with you without reservation!"

Upon hearing this, everyone enthusiastically applauded.

Even Chen Guoqiang's eyes were full of approval when he saw the thriving team atmosphere in the Third Squadron.

He thought of Li Gang from the First Squadron, looked at Zhao Dong, and whispered, "The reorganization of the Major Crimes Unit is inevitable! We should do it before the personnel changes to prevent some people from causing trouble again."

Zhao Dong nodded and said, "I understand, we are currently scouting candidates."

Chen Guoqiang nodded and said no more.

Next.

The meal lasted until almost 10 o'clock.

Guan Feng asked Huang Lili to drive the two leaders home, and the others also arrived home one after another.

......

I slept soundly through the night.

Guan Feng woke up from his sleep.

He got up, quickly washed up, went downstairs, and took a taxi to the Municipal Bureau.

Lily drove the car away last night, and he didn't get it back.

When they arrived at the cafeteria, they happened to run into Gao Dacheng and his friends who were also eating there.

He carried his tray over and sat down next to the group, asking, "Nothing happened when you got back last night, right?"

Gao Dacheng said, "It's nothing! I went to sleep as soon as I got back. Everything is fine."

Guan Feng nodded and said, "I'll ask about the case's progress later. Although the case has been solved, the procedures haven't been completed yet. We'll keep an eye on all the foreign-related cases."

Gao Dacheng said, "Okay, I'll go to the brigade after I finish eating."

Guan Feng stopped talking after hearing this.

After finishing their meal, the group went to the office.

Guan Feng had just sat down when Huang Lili walked into the office and handed him the keys, saying, "Captain, here are your keys. Last night when I went back, my sister said you didn't invite her to dinner. She said next time you should treat her alone."

Guan Feng said, "Lily, didn't you explain things to me?"

Huang Lili said, "Of course I explained! I said you were busy with the case until after eight o'clock last night, and it just so happened that Director Chen and the branch captain all came over. None of us had eaten, and the captain couldn't let everyone go hungry, could he?"

Guan Feng couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Lily, you've become smarter."

Huang Lili chuckled and said, "I also mentioned that this meal was originally scheduled for the afternoon, but it was delayed until after 8 p.m., and everyone was starving."

Guan Feng: "???"

P.S.: Before I knew it, I'd reached a million words! To all the readers who've followed this far, I'd like to ask for some data! Thank you so much for being with me all this way!
