He was courageous and valiant, and possessed an irresistible charm.
"By the way, Zhou Cheng, you performed very well today. Tomorrow morning at the station meeting, Director Li will likely single you out for praise."
Captain Wang said to Zhou Cheng. Zhou Cheng's performance today could only be described as staggering!
It was even more astonishing considering Zhou Cheng had only been an intern for three days!
"I'm telling you, after you left today, Old Cheng from the Case Investigation Team was full of praise for you. He kept probing me for information; it seems he's very interested in you."
"If you want to join the Case Investigation Team, you can take the opportunity to mention it to Director Li tomorrow morning. With your skills, there are more opportunities to earn merits there!"
Zhou Cheng was currently a community Police Officer. His daily routine involved responding to calls to resolve resident disputes and trivial matters, occasionally catching a petty thief. Generally, there weren't many chances for major merits.
The Case Investigation Team was different. They were primarily responsible for public security and criminal cases within the district, investigating, solving crimes, and arresting criminals! There were many more opportunities for merit!
Of course, it was also much more dangerous!
After this afternoon's performance, Captain Wang thought very highly of Zhou Cheng.
So he also suggested that Zhou Cheng go to the Case Investigation Team.
"I understand, Captain Wang!" Zhou Cheng nodded seriously.
He definitely intended to go to the Case Investigation Team. With the Police God System, he would have more opportunities for merit and earn more rewards.
However, one must take things one step at a time; stability was the priority.
Captain Wang Dongchen nodded with satisfaction. He had mentored many newcomers, but this was the first time he'd seen an intern who could recognize a wanted fugitive on sight... After returning home, Zhou Cheng took a shower and went to sleep.
Meanwhile, Zhao Yier was lying in a VIP hospital ward.
Upon hearing about her car accident, her parents had rushed over immediately!
At this moment, she was leaning against the hospital bed, her eyes fixed intently on surveillance footage on her phone!
And she kept replaying a certain segment.
"He's clearly so handsome, yet he claimed to be ugly. Does he really not want me to see him that badly?"
"And breaking the window with a single punch... he must have been so desperate to save me that he unleashed such powerful strength."
Zhao Yier's eyes twinkled as they remained fixed on Zhou Cheng's face on the screen.
She didn't even notice when her father pushed the door open and walked in.
"Fortunately, after the rear-end collision, the car swerved into the green belt, which cushioned the impact. Otherwise, it would have been dangerous."
"What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor said Yier is fine. She just needs a few days of rest, and she can even be discharged tomorrow."
Zhao Yier's father spoke in a low voice. His expression was grim; he suspected someone might be targeting him and had intentionally arranged for someone to hit his daughter!
"Dad, was it because that person saved me in time that I'm okay?"
"If he hadn't smashed the glass and pulled me out in time, would the car have exploded and blown me to pieces?"
Zhao Yier looked up at her father with a serious expression.
Hearing this, a question mark practically floated over Zhao's father's forehead.
"Would the car have exploded? I had people check; that car showed no signs of being about to explode," Zhao's father said, puzzled.
"Of course it would! That's how it happens in TV dramas. It's truly terrifying. If not for him, I'd definitely be dead right now," Zhao Yier said with lingering fear.
She thought of Zhou Cheng again—the man who had snatched her from the jaws of death but refused to reveal any identity information when she woke up.
Meeting injustice on the road, heroic and brave, strikingly handsome, and doing good deeds without seeking fame—especially since he was a policeman!
It was hard not to have a good impression of him!
Zhao's father was baffled by his daughter's words.
My dear daughter, even if he hadn't been there, you wouldn't have died!
You don't even have a scratch on you right now.
"So, I must repay him properly. Dad, I've decided to go to his Police Station! Transfer me there."
Zhao's father: ?
...Early morning, sunlight spilled down.
Even though Zhou Cheng had become a bit of a minor celebrity at the Police Station and even online yesterday,
work was still work.
After driving to the station, Zhou Cheng walked to his desk.
Just as he sat down, Director Li walked in and called everyone for a meeting.
Zhou Cheng had no choice but to stand up again, but as he did,
he glanced around and his eyes immediately narrowed!
He'd met an acquaintance!
Zhao Yier, whom he had saved last night, was standing straight right before his eyes, and she was even wearing the same uniform.
This gave Zhou Cheng the feeling of being hunted down.
Damn, the Heavenly Dao of this world is truly ridiculous, forcing the plot along like this!
The surrounding colleagues, especially those two kids Liu Xi and Zhang Quan who had joined at the same time as him, had their eyes locked onto Zhao Yier.
They looked like they couldn't wait to show off in front of her!
"Brother Zhou Cheng, thank you for saving me last night." Seemingly sensing Zhou Cheng's gaze, Zhao Yier looked over and walked straight toward him.
Her voice was soft and sweet, sounding like honey to the ears.
Beside Zhou Cheng, Liu Xi and Zhang Quan looked at him in shock.
Their expressions seemed to say: You brat, how did you secretly save such a top-tier beauty last night!
And she just happens to be our colleague.
"Hello, you must have the wrong person. I was sleeping at home last night; I didn't save anyone!" Zhou Cheng said, shaking his head. He couldn't admit it.
"Brother Zhou Cheng, look, this is the surveillance footage of you smashing the car window with one punch." Zhao Yier took out her phone and tapped on the video.
"Also, even though you were wearing a mask last night, I still recognize your eyes."
Fine, fine, she really is hunting me down.
She actually checked the surveillance!
"And that's Captain Wang who was at the scene last night, right?" Zhao Yier looked at Wang Dongchen on the side, a cunning smile on her face.
It was as if she were saying: No one can fool me.
Hearing this, what else could Zhou Cheng say?
"Is that so? I didn't expect you to be a Police Officer too," Zhou Cheng said awkwardly.
Fortunately, Captain Wang walked over at that moment.
Clapping his hands, he called everyone into the meeting room.
As the top boss of the Police Station, Director Li naturally took the head seat in the meeting room.
His voice was loud as he repeatedly emphasized the discipline of the police force.
Then, he gave a special introduction of Zhao Yier to everyone.
"This new colleague has been transferred from the East City Street Station. She will be working at our station from now on. I hope everyone will cooperate fully and work hard together."
"Why don't you come up and introduce yourself first?" Director Li said, leading the applause.
The Police Officers below all followed suit and clapped.
It wasn't that the station lacked female colleagues, but it lacked one with top-tier beauty like Zhao Yier.
So everyone was very enthusiastic, especially the single male comrades.
Of course, this did not include Zhou Cheng!
Zhou Cheng was deep in thought.
In just one night, she obtained the surveillance, investigated him, and got transferred from another station! She drove an Audi!
Combining all this, Zhou Cheng immediately deduced that Zhao Yier's background was not simple.
And that background was most likely in officialdom!
Good grief, if he got involved with her and later got swept into some mess, not just him, but even his Zhou Family would be nothing but dust!
This dog of a world, the stakes are getting higher and higher, aren't they!
But for now, it was fine; things were still under control. The fact that Zhao Yier could become a colleague meant she was likely a decent person!
She wouldn't be like those unreasonable, law-breaking Female Protagonists in other short dramas.
