"Probationary Police Officer Xu Shi from the Inspection Bureau, reporting for duty!"

The next morning, Xu Shi, dressed in a different outfit, arrived at the Inspection Bureau on time and even gave Tang Shuang a perfunctory salute.

"That's not standard at all. How can you salute so loosely?"

Tang Shuang snorted and came over to correct his posture. "Sloppy and unreliable."

Upon seeing this, Yu Xingchuan instinctively shrank his neck.

Actually, even the adjutant didn't know Tang Shuang would be coming today. Sister, you're already the governor, okay? There's no reason for you to suddenly come back!

So the scene is quite comical. Although she hasn't officially taken office yet, Yu Xingchuan has already changed into the uniform of the head of the inspection bureau. As a result, she looks like the real and fake Monkey King. Moreover, she can't muster any momentum in front of Tang Shuang and has no authority at all.

She never expected that Xu Shi would also come, and even wear a regular police officer's uniform.

The most outrageous thing is, how could you, Tang Shuang, actually dare to reprimand him? To be honest, she, and many other senior members of the inspection bureau, were all mentored by Tang Shuang, and they all had some kind of PTD when faced with such a scene.

What are you guys up to? Something's definitely up... Is this some kind of copying using your position?

Yu Xingchuan secretly rolled her eyes. To be honest, she was quite envious. Although she was also a beneficiary of the riot, the adjutant wanted to rely on Xu Shi to avoid taking another thirty years of detours. She had never shied away from this before, and was just short of stripping naked and packing herself up to deliver herself to Xu Shi's bed...

Unfortunately, Xu Shi's attitude was unclear, and she felt that he wasn't interested in her. Thinking about it, she felt a little regretful and looked down at herself.

What am I lacking... or do you prefer the tigress type?

The adjutant couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"Okay, I've learned a lot, Director."

Xu Shi actually enjoyed this role-playing as well. "So, what tasks do you have for me today?"

"Let me think... I'm going on patrol later, will you come with me?"

Tang Shuang cleared her throat and said, "Go to the armory and get a sidearm, as well as tear gas and stun guns... Never mind, I'll take you there, so you don't take this opportunity to slack off."

"Yes, ma'am!"

After the two of them finished packing and set off, Yu Xingchuan breathed a sigh of relief with a sense of emotion.

That's enough. People who do community service usually don't get this kind of treatment. Being armed is one thing, but who does community service with the bureau chief personally leading them?

And you still say you're not into romance?

Despite her sourness, the adjutant couldn't help but smile like an auntie—it's true that everyone in the Inspection Bureau is afraid of Tang Shuang, this living devil, but a more accurate description would be "awe," with "respect" preceding "fear"...

Although Tang Shuang used to differ from everyone else in her way of dealing with people, her character is impeccable, and everyone admires her wholeheartedly.

Especially Yu Xingchuan, her second-in-command who she spent every day with, she truly regarded him as an older sister. Seeing that she had found a place for herself, she felt quite pleased.

The fact that her former boss got together with Xu Shi doesn't conflict with her plan to climb the social ladder by marrying Xu Shi. With some effort, she'll still have a chance in the future.

Most importantly.

You two are finally gone, now I can finally stand up straight!

The adjutant, hands on her hips, took a few deep breaths and regained her composure.

...

"Seriously, are we just going to go on patrol like this? Shouldn't we grab a coffee and a donut first?"

This was Xu Shi's first time doing something like this, and he was quite interested. He couldn't help but curiously pull Tang Shuang aside and ask her all sorts of questions.

Didn't you have breakfast?

Tang Shuang blinked in confusion, "The Inspection Bureau doesn't prohibit eating and drinking during patrols, but I rarely see people doing this."

"I've already eaten, I was just asking."

Xu Shi responded with a hint of regret; this wasn't quite what he had expected... "If I encounter a 'Forsaken' who doesn't follow the rules, can I just empty my magazine?"

"What kind of weird questions are these?"

Director Tang frowned. "Anyway, ensuring your own safety is the top priority. But with me here, you don't need to be afraid, even with your skinny arms and legs."

"Who's lost weight in their arms and legs?"

Xu Shi snorted defiantly and then showed off, "I work out regularly, look, I'm super strong."

"Go to hell."

Tang Shuang sneered, "Then do you want to have a go at this bureau chief?"

"Professional players are prohibited from participating."

Xu Shi rolled her eyes at her, "You've really shown me! You can't even beat my Wuyou..."

"That's settled then, isn't it?"

Tang Shuang didn't care. "We're here. Get in the car."

The so-called patrol is not just wandering around on the street. Usually, it is a group of two or three people who drive around to inspect various blocks.

There's not even a need to worry so much—Night City has extensive surveillance coverage, and drones can also help alleviate the pressure.

However, Tang Shuang herself really enjoys getting involved, which is a habit of hers, and she even enjoys doing these things.

This was also her last patrol, marking the end of her career in the inspection bureau.

And to be able to conclude this chapter together with Xu Shi would be the icing on the cake.

"Speaking of which, when you become governor in the future, remember to change your habit of doing everything yourself."

Xu Shi was about to say the same thing, and he leaned lazily against the passenger seat, muttering, "On the one hand, the workload is so heavy that you can't manage it all, and on the other hand, you have to learn to delegate things to your subordinates."

"Sometimes I still feel a little uneasy."
