Chapter 12 Curfew (Part 2)



After all, people always like to live in the past. Curiosity is human nature, but so is stubbornness. The older people get, the more they dislike change. Jiang Youwei already has a premonition that the time for an online upset is coming soon. It's hard to imagine that he will actually witness history!

. . . . . .

Chen Fan, a distinguished police officer in a criminal police detachment, is finally nearing retirement after twenty years of diligent service. "I wonder how much my pension will be?" Having lost his son in middle age, he has no expectations for the future; all he wants is a secure place to spend the rest of his life.

"Hey, Captain Chen, are you still working overtime?"

Since Chen Fan was nearing retirement, the organization arranged a sinecure for him with a high position but little work, and promoted a young man to be his deputy. "Nothing much, just looking at the street scene." He held a cigarette in his mouth and looked at the empty streets and the dark commercial district.

"Well, what's there to see? Just go and have a good rest, and wait for our report tomorrow!"

"It's tough across the country, Xiaoliu! Look, everyone who works in an office has been sent out. I'm really worried!"

"Serve the people!" The man immediately stood up straight, his eyes with dark circles shining brightly.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough..." Chen Fan was so frightened that he choked. After he caught his breath, he said in a teasing tone: "Your illness doesn't seem to have been going on for just one or two days. What era is this? We are just lousy workers!" Chen Fan said this deliberately because he was afraid that he would be seriously injured again this time.

"Captain Chen, I promise not to act rashly this time!" The young man called Xiaoliu seemed a little anxious.

Chen Fan sighed. "Okay, go ahead. Stay away from the Special Operations Team. Don't forget they're made of iron, and you're made of iron!" Chen Fan thought it was great to be young. Thinking back to when he was... Stop, don't think about it for now. Retired due to injury, he was actually a bit afraid of death—those who rush to the front die the fastest—he was truly afraid that these young men would die before him.

As the powerful "thump thump thump" footsteps faded away, several documents were picked up by the passing air currents and fell to the ground. On one of them was the following:
