Chapter 20: Being Caught in the Middle

"Hello, hello, Miss Mishra." Yada said very enthusiastically.

A reporter from All India Television, this is not a big shot he can afford to offend.

This woman seems to be in her early twenties, but she is obviously the leader among the three. She is not a simple person.

But is it just anyone who can work at All India Television?

In addition, the surname proved that the other party was a Brahmin, so Yada dared not neglect him even more.

As the director, I have received news from above that people from All India Television had arrived in Mumbai a few days ago. They were divided into several groups and have started filming documentaries in various police stations.

Yada has been feeling uneasy these days because it is not his turn.

He certainly didn't want people from All India Television to come. No matter how his area prepared, there would definitely be many problems.

How could he not know what kind of people his police officers were like? So he was trembling with fear these days, especially when he heard that many police officers in other jurisdictions had their illegal behaviors recorded on camera.

However, what was coming finally came. When Fia and others appeared in front of him, Yada felt at ease.

Anyway, everyone is the same. Let alone the second brother, can the higher-ups really dismiss all of us?

"This time we plan to shoot some footage in the jurisdiction of the Spanda Police Station. I wonder if we can get the cooperation of the chief?" Fia asked.

"Of course, of course." Yada said immediately, "The Spanda Police Department will fully cooperate, just give your instructions."

"Thank you very much, Chief." Feiya smiled, "I hope the chief can send a police officer who is familiar with this place to take us around and show us how the police officers work, just their daily work."

"No problem, Rodan." Yada shouted.

Without hesitation, Rawdon hurried up to the director.

"Rodun Mahesh, this is an extremely outstanding young man in our police station. He knows English and I believe he can cooperate well with Miss Mishra's work." Yada said.

Although Miss Mishra speaks Hindi now, Yada still wants Rawdon to accompany her. What if the other party goes out to speak English and he sends someone who doesn't understand English, that would be terrible.

Moreover, if you understand English, you might be able to hear some of the secret conversations that the people on these TV stations are saying in English.

This time, the higher-ups secretly issued orders to their grassroots police stations, requiring them to ensure they presented their best performance during the filming, and also to try their best to understand the TV station crew's evaluation of their police officers.

So the content of their daily conversations is very important.

Yada had already told Rodon about all this.

They said that they would let Roden take them out for a walk, but there were some rules to this walk.

The bureau has arranged a special route so there won't be any messy situations. Everything has been prepared in advance just to meet the filming mission.

At the same time, Rotun also acted as an undercover agent and an insider, monitoring the TV station staff's every move and reporting to Ada at any time.

Originally, when Fiya and her friends came, the Mumbai police top brass was planning to send someone to accompany them throughout the trip, but in the end they refused.

What Fia meant was that this time she was filming the daily work of grassroots police officers, and she would have to come into contact with grassroots police stations.

This is because I don't want to be disturbed by these people following me.

Of course, the top brass of All India Television have also negotiated with the Maharashtra Police Headquarters, so the Mumbai Police Department will not interfere with the filming, at least not on the surface, as they need to give face to the television station.

There is no way, this time it is not the TV station that is in charge, but the top management.

"Rodun Mahesh?" When Feiya heard the name, she couldn't help but look at Rodun and said, "Are you the officer Mahesh who fought dozens of thugs alone in Mumbai not long ago? I've read the report about you."

"That's him." Yada said with a smile.

Feiya narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Then we don't have to worry about safety issues."

"Ms. Mishra, Mumbai is very safe, you don't have to worry at all," said Rawdon.

"Okay, then I'll trouble Officer Mahesh to let me see if the public security in Mumbai is really that good." Fia said with a smile.

Yada shook his head slightly at Rotten, who understood and gave the director a reassuring look.

Following the director's instructions, Roton brought Fia and her group to a carefully prepared area.

The police officers here are in high spirits, at least much more energetic than before. They work really hard to direct traffic instead of just catching people violating the law and issuing fines.

Feiya watched the daily lives of these policemen, and from time to time she uttered words of praise such as "not bad" and "very good".

But Luoton discovered that the photographer had not turned on the camera at all.

Of course, Luo Dun knew what was going on. Was he a fool? He saw the problem at a glance.

If all grassroots police officers are like this, would they be scolded by the majority of people?

"Ms. Mishra, this is the daily work of our grassroots police officers," said Rawdon.

"Not bad." Mishra chuckled and said, "I wonder if we can go somewhere else?"

"Okay, this way please." Roton said with a smile.

“No no no, Officer Mahesh, I think we can go somewhere further,” Mishra smiled.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"This?" Rawdon hesitated.

Further away, the meaning of the other party's words was very clear, that is, he didn't want to see this kind of fraudulent work scene anymore.

Although Yada has asked everyone to be more restrained recently, the situation in other places is still quite chaotic, and the police are still doing their usual weird things.

How can we stop this kind of thing all at once? It's impossible.

The director and his superiors clearly requested that the crew not be allowed to film these things.

But can he be stopped? Of course not. Luo Dun is just a first-class police officer. What's the use of his words?

Moreover, I was told to fully cooperate with the TV station's filming and not to refuse their requests. These were two contradictory orders.

So in the eyes of most people, this is a chore and a thankless job.

If he had a choice, Yada would not be willing to send Rotten over, after all, he was his confidant.

But in the bureau, only Rawdon can speak English, and only Rawdon can do this job. If someone else is sent there, who knows what bad things will happen.

Yada didn't dare to joke about such things, as it concerned his police career and future.

"Ms. Mishra, it's getting late. How about we have lunch first?" Roden was about to change the subject. "Our director is already prepared to welcome you all."

"You're welcome. Work is more important." Feiya said, "Officer Mahesh, is there any difficulty?"

Rawdon was silent.

Of course there are difficulties, after all, the requirements are that the bad side should not be exposed.

Although no one was sent to follow Fia and her group, Roden knew very well that this was only on the surface. There must be people sent by the top brass of the Mumbai Police Department watching them secretly.

In addition to keeping an eye on the various film crews, we also want to see which grassroots police station is the worst and is holding back the Mumbai police system.

Although Roden knew the intention of the film crew, the Mumbai police system did not trust them yet, so he had to at least stand on the side of the police system on the surface and pretend to be trying his best to stop them so that those who were watching secretly could see his efforts.

I tried my best, but in the end I had no choice but to take them somewhere else as I could not refuse the film crew.

The embarrassment on his face now was naturally an act. He couldn't say that he was very happy to take them to shoot those real scenes.

You can be happy in your heart, but you can't show it on your face.

Moreover, this is related to the plan that Roton had in mind.
