7 I'm Afraid of Being Beaten up When I Get Home

Zhang Yunhu, the captain of the second search and arrest unit, personally carried out the interrogation of Liang Wenyuan.

Liang Wenyuan was also quite smart.

When asked why he didn't throw the flesh and blood all down the sewer since it was already minced but instead fed the meat to the dog like a pervert, the guy said he was forced to do so.

There had been just too much flesh and blood. If he had poured it all into the sewer, it would definitely need a lot of water.

He was afraid that the police would find some clues through the abnormal water usage.

The only thing that Liang Wenyuan couldn't figure out was how Chen Yan found out that there was something wrong with the two skeletons.

He could guarantee that the two skeletons were exactly the same as the models used in the hospital.

This was especially so for the long bones on the thighs, calves, and arms. Although he sawed off a section, he had carefully polished every section so that there were no uneven joints. There simply shouldn't have been any flaws.

Of course, Chen Yan could not tell him that he had a cheat, namely the activation of his olfactory gene.

In Zhang Yunhu's office, Zhang Yunhu took the initiative to pour a cup of hot tea for Chen Yan. His tone was especially warm and amiable, "Xoao Chen, you've rendered meritorious service this time! Huge time! Tell me, do you have any requests? We'll try our best to satisfy you!"

Zhang Yunhu was beaming.

A missing person's case had been seen through to be a case of murder where two lives had been involved, both victims dismembered and one even the wife of the suspect.

Most importantly, it had only taken one day for it to have been solved!

A collective third-class merit for the members of the unit was underway.

Not only did the merit represented honor, but it also brought with it a monetary reward.

For a collective third-class merit, each member of the team would be rewarded with 10,000 yuan!

In addition to realistic rewards, solving such a big case was also very beneficial to Zhang Yunhu's promotion.

In addition, due to the vile nature of the case, Chen Yan should be able to get an individual third-class merit as well.

In Hua Country, an individual third-class merit started at 100,000 yuan in terms of monetary reward.

Not only that, because Chen Yan had just solved a case of offering prostitution services online that involved 30 million yuan, his one-year internship period would end this week.

Now that he had obtained an individual third-class merit, his police rank could be promoted by a grade as well.

To think the title of a second-grade detective was waiting for him before he even became a full-time detective, there was no such precedent in the entire province.

In Hua Country, the police had four ranks, namely the detective, director of investigation, inspector, and chief superintendent.

Each rank was divided into three further grades.

Usually, a trainee would not have a police rank right after becoming a full-time detective.

Only after working for a year could one be promoted to a third-grade detective.

After two years, one would then be promoted to a second-grade detective, then a first-grade detective after four years.

Someone with an individual third-class merit could be promoted by a grade.

In other words, the two cases that Chen Yan solved in the past two days had saved him four years of time!

While the same batch of trainee officers was still racking their brains to become full-time detectives, Chen Yan was already a second-grade detective.

"Hehe," Chen Yan respectfully took the teacup from Zhang Yunhu. "Thank you, captain. I don't have any requests. It's all thanks to Officer Liu Qingshan's guidance."

Zhang Yunhu was slightly stunned.

Old Liu had always said that Chen Yan was smart, but now it seemed that it was indeed true.

To think he could still be so humble after solving two major cases. In the face of the praise of his superior, he even pushed all the credit to his master. There were not many young people like him.

It seemed that he was worthy of being nurtured!

The story of Mr. Dongguo and the Wolf existed in this world as well. No one wanted to spend so much effort only to have nurtured an ingrate.

"I know how capable Old Liu is," Zhang Yunhu laughed loudly, "Xiao Chen, don't worry. Both Old Liu and I, as police, are very clear about the rewards and punishments. The credit will go to the person who deserves it! After the prostitution case, I've already sent your application to become an official policeman to the higher-ups. It will be approved within two days. For the dismemberment and wife-killing case this time, you're got the main credit. An individual third-class merit is most probably on its way. I've already handed in the closing report."

Zhang Yunhu then sat beside Chen Yan and patted his shoulder, "Xiao Chen, you're intelligent, bold and careful. I have high hopes for you!"

To be honest, Zhang Yunhu indeed had high hopes for Chen Yan.

He had gone on a blind date, but with just a glance at the other party's phone, he had settled a 30 million yuan case of offering prostitution services online.

If he wasn't bold and careful, then who was?

Just based on his suspicion of two skeletons and his judgement of scents, he had solved a murder case that even the old detectives in the team had overlooked. If this wasn't being bold and careful, then what was?

As long as such a person didn't grow to be arrogant due to his talent, he would definitely be able to achieve great things in the police force!

"Xiao Chen, don't worry. As long as you work hard in the team, I guarantee that I won't let you down!"

For a captain of an investigation unit to have an arm around the shoulders of an intern who had just entered the police force and was even patting the latter's shoulder in a friendly manner, it was no ordinary treatment.

It was definitely only possible because the former recognized the latter's abilities and character very much.

Having been a person for two lifetimes, it was a given Chen Yan understood what Zhang Yunhu was trying to convey.

His captain was probably afraid that he would be head-hunted.

Of course, logicallly speaking, a unit of the same level would definitely not be able to get Chen Yan away from the search and arrest unit, but what if it was a unit at a higher level?

Or even a provincial team?

At that time, it would not be up to Zhang Yunhu to decide.

"Captain Zhang, don't worry!" Chen Yan stood up and saluted, "The grass-roots unit is the stage for us young people to train our abilities and increase our talents. I will definitely stay in the team to learn and work hard to improve."

After the salutation, Chen Yan looked at Zhang Yunhu with a grin, "Besides, captain, my home is within the jurisdiction of our team. It's so close to home that I can even walk to work."

These two sentences showed that he would not leave even if the higher units invited him, nor would he leave upon recruitment attempts of the units of the same level.

He was quite frank.

Haha!

"Good!" How could Zhang Yunhu, who was an old veteran in the ways of society, not know what Chen Yan meant, "I'll give you three days off. Go back and rest well. Wait for the good news at home!"

Chen Yan was stunned when he heard this.

Three days off?

To be honest, in a place like the police force where the work was day and night, a vacation was definitely the most precious reward.

In the eyes of a police officer, there was no such thing as holidays or the weekend.

To work 5+2, day and night, and be 24 hours on standby was the norm.

Hua Country's medical technology was much more advanced than that of the world Chen Yan had been in in his previous life. The average life expectancy of ordinary people was 90 years.

However, the average life expectancy of a police officer was only 44.6 years!

It was less than half of that of an ordinary person.

Why?

Apart from those who sacrificed in missions, death from overwork also accounted for a large proportion of police officer deaths.

For Zhang Yunhu to give Chen Yan three days of leave, his position in the hearts of the leaders was quite evident.

However, Chen Yan did not dare to accept it.

One had to know that he had just arrested his blind date yesterday. If he dared to go home today, he would be beaten to death by his mother!

Moreover, based on his mother's character and ability, she would probably arrange a dozen to twenty blind dates for him in three days.

"Captain, captain!" Thinking of this, Chen Yan hurriedly waved his hand, "Forget about the holidays. It's important for me to study since I'm new here. Besides, I haven't officially become a police officer yet. If you give me so many leaves, what will other people think?"

Hm? The others?!

"F*ck!" Zhang Yun Hu roared, " Let's see who has an opinion about me giving you a few sdats of leave! If they have the ability, they should also give me a collective third-class merit! Xiao Chen, don't be afraid. Rest well. After three days, when the merit and rewards are all given, I'll hold a celebratory feast for you!"

...

Good Lord, there was no way he could espcae from having three days of vacation at this point.

Liu Qingshan looked at the dejected Chen Yan and was a little surprised, "Kid, you should stop before going too far. Three days of vacation isn't short."

Chen Yan, "..."

Was he complaining that the vacation was too short? He was just afraid of getting beaten up when he got home.
