If what appeared now wasn't a few police officers arresting prostitutes, but a television reporter recording a program, the reporter would surely be teary-eyed and choked with emotion, saying, "What a diligent and frugal, good cadre of the Party! With cadres like this, how can the people not be happy, how can our motherland not be strong?!"
Okay, okay, stop overthinking it. Let's get back to the point. Regarding the district head's small request, Xu Moran's colleague nodded in agreement, "Hurry up and eat!"
Without saying a word, the district head picked up a tray from the coffee table and started eating.
Xu Moran stood at the back, driven by curiosity, and peeked out a little to the side, finally seeing what the blue abalone that the district chief had mentioned costing a thousand yuan each looked like.
Apart from the fact that the shell is light blue and it is a little larger than a regular abalone, there seems to be no difference.
The district head, who was wolfing down his food, suddenly felt Xu Moran looking at him... Holding the abalone in his hand, he smiled warmly and asked Xu Moran, "Young lady, would you like one? Abalone is high in protein, especially the blue abalone, which is great for women."
Xu Moran shrank back in fright, quickly withdrawing the small distance she had extended, pretending that she had never been curious about the blue abalone that cost a thousand yuan each.
"Please forgive me, comrades." The district head chewed on abalone, his speech a little slurred. "This is an occupational hazard I've developed from being a good cadre of the Party for so long. When I see the elderly, the infirm, the disabled, pregnant women, and young girls, I can't help but want to show them some concern."
That district head was naturally brought down, and the reasons for his downfall were not just as simple as soliciting prostitution; he was also involved in a series of crimes such as embezzlement and having illicit relationships.
Having spent a long time in officialdom, he knew this was a high-risk profession, and that he might be in trouble any day. The district head confessed directly without making any last-ditch effort.
On his last day in custody at the B City Police Station, it was Xu Moran's turn to guard him.
The reason he was locked up in the police station with someone watching him was to prevent him from committing suicide. This was Xu Moran's first time carrying out a mission alone, so he was naturally a little nervous.
On the contrary, the district chief, knowing that he had committed more than one crime and had almost no chance of turning things around, was still very relaxed.
He initiated a casual conversation with Xu Moran, "Young lady, were you curious about what those blue abalones that cost a thousand each looked like the other day? Maybe I've eaten too many delicacies, so they really are just like that."
Xu Moran remained silent, standing to the side and doing her job of guarding.
The district head probably hadn't been this relaxed in a long time. He didn't care whether Xu Moran paid attention to him or not, and said to himself, "Young lady, you just graduated from school, right? You're so young, don't look so gloomy. Life is short, enjoy it while you can, don't keep a long face. Come on, let me tell you a joke first."
Xu Moran remained silent.
The district head then started telling jokes: "The story goes that when Tang Sanzang and his disciples were on their journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, one day Tang Sanzang was hungry and asked Sun Wukong to go and beg for some food. Wukong returned quickly with only a few cucumbers in his hand. Tang Sanzang was not unhappy at all; instead, he asked Sun Wukong if there were cucumber fields for miles around. Sun Wukong told him yes, and Tang Sanzang excitedly shouted for Sun Wukong to help him up, because he knew they had arrived at the Kingdom of Women."
Although Xu Mo had never even had a boyfriend, both theoretically and practically, she was quite innocent. However, she didn't need to pretend to be naive and clueless. She'd heard similar risqué jokes before, and it wouldn't be the last. Naturally, she understood what was going on.
