Everyone in the City Heard About That Person

From the footprints on the poker card, it was obvious that someone had stepped on the poker card and it stuck on the soles of their shoe, which brought it over.

The cleaning lady picked it up and smiled, thinking,

“This is most likely Officer Li and the others secretly playing cards. Fortunately, I discovered it. Otherwise, Officer Li would have been scolded again.”

With that, the middle-aged woman threw the poker cards into the trash bag, planning to throw them away later.

After a long time, the auntie pushed the trash bag out of the office building.

It was almost time to go to work, and many police officers had already begun to take up their posts.

Along the way, everyone greeted the cleaning lady warmly.

Suddenly, the auntie saw Deputy Captain Chen, Chen Ye, rushing to the office building with two big dark circles under his eyes.

Beside him was a fat man in his fifties.

“Captain Chen, did you stay up all night again?” The auntie asked with concern.

Chen Ye paused for a moment and rubbed his eyes. “Aiya, I can’t help it. Big Sis, you know that if we rest, who can guarantee your safety?”

“That’s true, but Captain Chen, don’t tire yourself out.”

“Don’t worry, Sis. A man is still a flower at 30 years old. I’m at my bright age. By the way, have you seen Chief Zhang?”

“I didn’t see him. Captain Chen, who is this person beside you?”

Chen Ye glanced at the middle-aged fat uncle in a suit and leather shoes beside him and said with a smile, “This is the hostage’s relative who was saved by Zhou Xiaoxiao yesterday. He’s here today to send a silk banner to thank the police station.”

The middle-aged woman smiled kindly. “Hahahaha, Xiaoxiao is really good. I just thought that this little girl is beautiful and sensible. She will definitely become a talent. I won’t disturb you anymore.”

“Hahahaha, alright. Bye, Big Sis.”

When the middle-aged woman pushed the trailer past Chen Ye, she seemed to have thought of something and reminded him softly, “By the way, Captain Chen, you have to be careful when playing cards in the lounge. Fortunately, I saw it this time. You have to pack the poker cards in the future. If your leader finds them next time, you will suffer.”

“Playing cards?”

Chen Ye was stunned for a moment and nodded. He didn’t think too much about it, but it was indeed a bad influence. He had to find out who was playing cards at work later.

They were really bold!

After saying that, Chen Ye bade farewell to the auntie and left with the man in the suit.

Chen Ye brought the man in the suit into the hall. “President Xiao, wait in the hall first. Officer Zhou should be here soon.”

The man in the suit called President Xiao waved the banner in his hand. “Okay, okay. Sorry to trouble you, Captain Chen.”

Just as Captain Chen was about to leave, there was a commotion at the door of the office.

“Officer Zhou, I’m the director of the Law Program. When do you have time to accept our invitation?”

“Officer Zhou, our show won’t take up too much of your time. We just need you to say a few words.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao walked into the hall and waved her hand. “This is the office hall. If you need anything, go to the front desk. I’m sorry, I don’t have time to think about this now.”

Hearing Zhou Xiaoxiao’s voice, almost everyone in the hall looked over.

Captain Chen also saw Zhou Xiaoxiao, who had come to work. He hurriedly called for people to go over and invite the few media personnel who had disturbed the office environment out.

“I’m sorry, please maintain order in the office. If you need anything, please contact our publicity department.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her colleagues stopping the media.

—Phew!

“These reporters are so hard to deal with.”

After complaining, Zhou Xiaoxiao turned around and saw Captain Chen walking towards her with a fat uncle in a suit with a smile on his face.

“Good morning, Captain Chen.”

Captain Chen waved his hand. “What’s so good about it? I didn’t sleep much the entire night. Look, President Xiao blocked me early in the morning and insisted on bringing him to thank you in person.”

Following Captain Chen’s gaze, Zhou Xiaoxiao carefully sized up the fat uncle in the suit.

He looked a little like the child from yesterday. He might be the other party’s father.

At this moment, President Xiao hurriedly presented the silk banner with both hands. “Officer Zhou, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, my son might have…”

Zhou Xiaoxiao chuckled and said, “President Xiao, you’re too polite. It’s our duty to protect the people of Hibiscus City.”

President Xiao raised his hands to gesture for Zhou Xiaoxiao to accept it. “Just accept it. This is also a token of our Hibiscus City citizens’ appreciation, right?”

Seeing that Zhou Xiaoxiao was unwilling to accept it, Captain Chen stepped forward to smooth things over. He took the silk banner and smiled. “Xiaoxiao, you’re too serious. It’s our honor to be respected and loved by the people. Besides, a silk banner is not considered a bribe.”

The corners of Zhou Xiaoxiao’s mouth could not help but twitch as she smiled awkwardly.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to accept it, but she felt that the person who saved President Xiao was strictly speaking the person who injured the robber. At most, she was just helping out.

Hence, she always felt that she did not deserve it, including the media outside.

Now that Captain Chen had put it this way, she could only silently accept it.

After all, it was impossible for her to tell the public that there was another person at the scene. Chief Zhang had said that this matter had to be handled carefully. No one could leak it before the final conclusion was reached.

“By the way, the silk banner is for Officer Zhou. I also have a cheque for five million yuan that I want to donate to the Hibiscus City Public Security Bureau…” President Xiao looked around and pointed at the old air conditioner.

“You guys guaranteed that we would live and work in peace, but your office environment is a little cold. Look, the air conditioner is already so old. This money is my personal donation to the Public Security Bureau to replace the air conditioner…”

Hearing this, Captain Chen and Zhou Xiaoxiao were stunned.

They did not expect President Xiao to spend five million yuan. Not only was he generous, but he was also very considerate.

If he gave the five million yuan to Zhou Xiaoxiao or the police, no one would have the guts to take the money. However, if he donated it to the police to replace office equipment, it would suddenly make sense.

Captain Chen was the first to interrupt President Xiao. “Hold on, President Xiao. We’ll accept this silk banner. We can’t take the money.”

Zhou Xiaoxiao quickly shied away and said, “That’s right. It’s too precious. We have the government behind us.Thank you for your kindnesss, President Xiao.”

After the three of them pushed it back andf forth, President Xiao narrowed his eyes and took back the check. “In that case, I won’t force you. However, my Xiao Corporation will remember your kindness. I’ll invest in Hibiscus City later.”

Xiao Corporation?

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened.

If she remembered correctly, the Xiao Corporation was ranked first in the financial report of the neighboring city last year.

Zhou Xiaoxiao asked in confusion, “Is it the Xiao Corporation in Mountain City?”

“That’s right. I came to Hibiscus City to discuss a project, but I didn’t expect to encounter a robber. It’s all thanks to Officer Zhou…”

“Hey, President Xiao, you’re too polite. I’m just welcoming you to Hibiscus City on my own behalf.”

The three of them chatted for a while. Every time President Xiao expressed that he wanted to thank Zhou Xiaoxiao alone for saving his life, Zhou Xiaoxiao passed things over.

As the saying went, she would not accept a reward without doing something for it. She would not take anything that was not hers.

Some things were not under her control, such as:

The news of the female police officer fighting the robber alone continued to spread. In just one night, it had almost spread throughout the city.

Both the real world and the Internet were discussing this hot topic.

For a moment, there was a heated discussion!
