I slept soundly through the night.
Guan Feng woke up from his sleep.
He recalled what had happened last night, and it was as if a movie was still playing in his mind:
Director Yang is probably really going to get a promotion!
Last night, he became less reserved and took the initiative to attend the dinner. He even said a lot of encouraging words at the dinner table, hoping that everyone could continue to work hard and create a criminal investigation legend for the Third Squadron.
He even brought up Guan Feng's "Guan 48" joke, saying that I don't think it should be called Guan 48. 48 hours is two days and two nights. I studied Guan Feng's file and there was never a case that involved a second night.
Guan Feng just smiled.
Everyone in the Third Squadron felt proud.
The meal lasted until 9 p.m.
The leaders reluctantly parted ways, still feeling that the event was not over.
Guan Feng and Huang Lili saw the leaders off one by one, and then took Huang Lili home.
The Huang family!
Uncle Huang also made a point of having Guan Feng sit for a while.
Upon hearing that Guan Feng was having dinner with Director Yang, Director Chen, and others that evening, Uncle Huang said earnestly, "Little Guan, Director Yang's matter is basically settled!" He then pointed to the sky.
Guan Feng only realized it then.
Uncle Huang continued his analysis: "The reason he had dinner with your Third Squadron this time is because you handled this case so well. It was originally just a minor case, but the province took notice, so it became a major case! And you happened to solve the case in half a day, which is equivalent to removing the only obstacle to his progress!"
"If nothing unexpected happens, the personnel changes for Director Yang will be announced in about half a month at most. You need to seize this opportunity! There's still a vacancy for a deputy captain in the Major Crimes Unit, right?"
Guan Feng said, "I was just promoted to squadron leader, isn't this inappropriate?"
Uncle Huang shook his head and said, "So what if you were just promoted to squad leader? Your years of service meet the requirements, and you've handled a lot of major cases recently. If we're talking about honors, people might object to any other promotion, but you... no one has anything to say!"
Guan Feng thought about it and realized that it made sense, so he said, "Then I'll try my best!"
Uncle Huang nodded and said, "Your only major weakness is your age, but since Director Yang is leaving, there's no need to be so cautious about some things. I'll talk to Old Yang tomorrow and see if I can give you a push before he leaves. Only when you step into the position of deputy captain can you be considered to have truly taken on a leadership role!"
To put it bluntly, although the squad leader is a leader, in reality he is just like a team leader.
Only at the battalion commander level!
Only then can we truly stand at a higher level to view the problem.
Guan Feng said, "Thank you, Uncle Huang!"
Uncle Huang waved his hand and said, "I'm being transferred soon too, so you'll have to rely on yourself from now on! Xiao Guan, as for Ya Yue and Lili, I'm sure you'll take good care of them even without me saying anything. If you have any questions in the future, ask Director Chen and Zhao Dong for advice."
Guan Feng immediately said, "I will, Uncle Chen. As for Ya Yue, Lili is also very helpful to me."
Uncle Huang nodded in satisfaction.
With a son-in-law like this, no one would be dissatisfied.
Guan Feng then asked, "Uncle Huang, has your destination been confirmed?"
Uncle Huang nodded and said, "It's probably about the judicial and publicity aspects, but we're still studying the specifics."
Guan Feng suddenly realized and said, "Then congratulations on your promotion, Uncle Huang!"
Uncle Huang waved his hand and said, "Things aren't clear yet! It's a bit early for you to congratulate me. Alright, go back and rest. You have to go to work tomorrow."
Guan Feng then took his leave.
......
These scenes flashed by like a movie.
Guan Feng got up, quickly washed up, grabbed his car keys, and went downstairs.
We drove all the way to the cafeteria.
He had just sat down.
Wang Bin and the others also arrived at the cafeteria at that time.
Looking at this former subordinate colleague who had been seconded to him, now on equal footing with him, and even hearing that the entire Third Squadron had dined with Director Yang last night, Wang Bin couldn't help but feel envious.
But considering all the things Guan Feng did, you have to admit that he really does have that ability!
He adjusted his mindset, smiled, and sat down in front of Guan Feng with his tray.
"Guan Feng, you handled yesterday's case brilliantly!"
Guan Feng said, "It was all a coincidence! Otherwise, how could we have figured it out in just a few hours! If Captain Wang hadn't been here, this honor would have been yours!"
Wang Bin just smiled, but didn't say anything.
"You do have a clear understanding of yourself!"
A less-than-friendly voice came from the side.
Guan Feng and Wang Bin turned their heads at the same time and saw Li Gang, the captain of the first squadron, coming to them with a tray of food.
Guan Feng nodded and said, "Captain Li!"
Looking at Guan Feng's composed demeanor, Li Gang said with some displeasure, "Captain Guan, how come you're always so lucky? The case at the Foreign Languages Institute last time, and this case of the hazardous gas leak this time, have both attracted the attention of the leadership. If I had known, my squadron would have intercepted them!"
Guan Feng smiled and asked in return, "Really?"
Seeing that the two were about to get into a fight, Wang Bin intervened and said, "Li Gang, I know you're not convinced, but think about it. With Guan's criminal investigation skills, who in our entire Major Crimes Unit can match them? If you're not convinced, let's not talk about anything else, but first, you need to surpass Gao Dacheng before we talk!"
Li Gang immediately looked displeased.
He's a veteran criminal investigation captain in the Major Crimes Unit!
Before Guan Feng arrived at the Major Crimes Unit, he was undoubtedly a powerful figure; otherwise, he wouldn't have been assigned to lead the elite First Squad of the Major Crimes Unit. But as soon as Guan Feng arrived, he started comparing himself to his subordinates.
Li Gang felt he had never suffered such injustice in his life.
He scoffed, "Wang Bin, do you think I can't even compare to a tall man?"
Wang Bin shook his head and said seriously, "That's hard to say! You're an expert, and Gao Dacheng is an expert too. As for the captain? That's just a position, which is about management ability. We're talking about criminal investigation ability now!"
Li Gang almost choked on his breath.
This Wang Bin... he's gone too far!
Guan Feng smiled and gave Wang Bin a thumbs-up under the table.
Wang Bin looked at Li Gang's constipated face with a satisfied expression.
He had never liked Li Gang and had always been overshadowed by him. Now, although he was also overshadowed by Guan Feng, seeing Li Gang's frustrated appearance, he suddenly felt that this feeling was actually quite good.
Or... should we cooperate with Guan Feng to fight Li Gang?
