Chapter 207 Day 1 Patrol
Then, with a smile on his face, Liu led the two of them toward the team office. Along the way, the three of them chatted casually, the atmosphere quite harmonious. Soon, they arrived at their destination—a spacious, bright, but slightly crowded room.
There were several people sitting in the room, the most eye-catching of them was Jiao Jiao. He was tall, with a serious face, and dressed in a neat uniform, giving people a sense of majesty. As the original trainee inspector of the team, Fan Jiao graduated from the police academy one year earlier than Hua Di. However, for some reason, despite his outstanding abilities, he has never been able to become a regular employee and is still holding the position of trainee. It is said that this is related to his overly rigid personality. Whether he is handling cases or daily work, he is always strict and uncompromising, even a little too serious to be approachable. However, in the police force, police officers like Fan Jiao are actually not uncommon. Perhaps it is caused by factors such as the current social order and education methods.
McDull, sitting on the other side, appears to be an ordinary, easygoing police officer. He has short hair, black-framed glasses, and a perpetual smile. Despite his unassuming appearance, he is a true firearms expert and a veteran member of the Gun Club. He is a passionate collector of a wide variety of powerful firearms and possesses a thorough knowledge of every type of firearm available, even the most obscure models. During confrontations with criminals, he uses his keen observation and expert knowledge to quickly and accurately identify the weapons they use and their characteristics. This is why this officer has become a particular focus for Wah Di. If McDull can continue to delve deeper into the field of firearms, Wah Di secretly plans to recruit him into his core team. After all, having the support of an exceptional firearms expert would undoubtedly greatly enhance his future work.
Apple, a vibrant and charming name, aptly belongs to this beautiful young policewoman. She was given this unique nickname "Apple" for a simple reason: her family is a long-standing computer business, so naming her after a fruit is both playful and unique. Even more amusing, her older brother's name is hilarious: IBM! This quirky brother-sister pairing is truly unforgettable.
Apple grew up in faraway Canada, bathed in the sunshine and rain of a foreign land. However, as she reached adulthood, she resolutely chose to return to her hometown of Hong Kong. At that time, most Hong Kong girls yearned to leave for a more distant and wider world. But Apple's return was a breath of fresh air, catching everyone's attention. After all, it was rare to find a girl as brave and determined as her, someone who truly cared deeply about her homeland.
It's worth noting that the actress who plays the role of Apple is none other than Guo Xiang, Huadi's beloved and captivating character. Her lively eyes, sweet smile, and natural affability perfectly bring the character of Apple to life, seemingly from the pages of a book.
Let's talk about another member of the squad, Da Dan. He's the team's driver and a veteran police officer nearing honorable retirement. Back when the Four Inspectors dominated the police force, Da Dan joined the patrol force, diligently protecting the city's peace. Despite his advanced age, he's a chatterbox. However, his chatter isn't annoying; it often brings laughter and lightheartedness. While Da Dan, like many Hong Kongers, is known for his diplomatic ways, when faced with adversity, he never hesitates to step forward, demonstrating the responsibility and courage of a true police officer.
Early in the morning, Liu Sir convened a morning meeting for the entire E Company. Following the meeting, he methodically assigned each squad to patrol. Huadi's squad quickly took action, embarking on a fulfilling and busy day...
Their brand-new patrol car had just slowly driven out of the police station when a shrill alarm suddenly blared—someone had reported a theft! Without a moment's delay, Huadi and the others quickly stepped on the accelerator and sped towards the crime scene.
Before long, the patrol car pulled up to the scene of the crime. It was a somewhat run-down residential complex, and the surroundings looked somewhat haphazard. As Huadi stepped out of the car, he quickly scanned the surroundings, thinking to himself, "Hmm...why does this scene feel familiar?"
Having handled similar cases before, Huadi seemed quite calm at the moment. He did not rush to take action, but stood quietly aside, observing the performance of the other team members with interest.
A Biao, with a serious expression, walked steadily toward the center of the crowd. He first asked the reporter for some key information, then began to carefully examine every detail of the scene. In just a few minutes, relying on years of experience and keen observation, A Biao had already identified the suspect!
In comparison, Hu Jiao's movements seemed much more awkward. Although he meticulously followed the procedures in his investigation, perhaps due to his lack of practical experience, his analysis and judgment of the clues were biased, ultimately leading to the wrongful conviction of the real culprit.
However, the most unexpected thing happened: Apple, the normally charming and harmless-looking girl. Just as everyone was still tense and busy, with a delicate cry, Apple pounced on the real criminal like a nimble cheetah. Her agility and swiftness, her fierce and brutal moves, completely contradicted her gentle and charming image. In a few moves, Apple successfully subdued the real criminal, leaving him unable to move.
Instead, Huo Huo blamed A Biao for not communicating with him in advance, and hoped that A Biao could communicate with him in advance in the future.
They had a successful start this time, having successfully solved a theft case shortly after their patrol. However, patrol work had to continue, and there was no room for slacking off. Sure enough, not long after, they received another call: a patrol security guard had accidentally triggered an alarm.
A police car arrived at the scene at lightning speed. Hu Jiao quickly made arrangements, sending McDull and Apple forward for a thorough check with the security guards. Meanwhile, seeing nothing else to do, Ah Biu pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, pulled one out, and handed it to Wah Di, who was standing beside him, enthusiastically lighting it. He then lit his own cigarette, and the two of them stepped aside to puff away.
Just as they were leisurely enjoying the moment of relaxation brought by the cigarettes, Huo Jiao suddenly came over and said to A Biao with a serious face: "Sheriff, please always pay attention to your identity! As a policeman, your every move should be worthy of the uniform you wear!" Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across A Biao's face. He quickly put out the cigarette in his hand and muttered: "Okay, I got it!" Then he turned around and prepared to check the situation elsewhere.
Huadi didn't say a word from beginning to end. He just reached out and took Ah Biao's hand, signaling him to return to the patrol car first. Then, the two of them returned to the patrol car together.
As soon as the car door closed, Huadi pulled out a black box from under the seat like lightning. With a crisp metallic clang, the lid was flung open, revealing two heavy bulletproof vests neatly placed inside.
Without hesitation, Huadi picked up one of the vests and, with the grace of a skilled dancer, instantly passed it to Ah Biao beside him. Then, with dazzling speed, he unfolded another body armor vest and quickly put it on himself. Every movement was precise and smooth, as if he had practiced the process countless times in his mind.
Ah Biao's heart tightened as he watched Huadi's smooth movements. He knew Huadi too well; if he hadn't sensed the grave danger, Huadi would never have hurriedly taken out his bulletproof vest and donned it. With this thought, Ah Biao's eyes sharpened. He instinctively took the bulletproof vest from Huadi and quickly put it on.
At the same time, the two men reached for the hidden weapon rack inside the car. A Remington shotgun and an AR15 rifle appeared in their hands, and the touch of the cold steel made them feel a chill.
Dan, seated in the driver's seat, had been concentrating on the road ahead when he heard the noise behind him and couldn't help but glance back. His face paled as he saw Huadi and Ah Biao, fully armed. A wave of fear washed over him, and he instinctively wanted to retreat, away from the area where a violent conflict might be about to break out.
However, as an experienced police officer, Dan knew the weight of his responsibility. Despite his fear, his sense of duty ultimately prevailed. He took a deep breath, gathered himself, and then turned to Huadi. His voice trembled slightly as he asked, "Huadi, what happened?"
While checking the guns and ammunition in his hand, Hua Di answered concisely and clearly: "Uncle Dan, we just found the group of gangsters who robbed the prison van. They are in the restaurant not far ahead. Report the situation to your superiors immediately! Also, you must be careful and ensure your own safety." After that, he gripped the rifle tightly in his hand and looked out the window with a firm gaze, as if he was ready to fight at any time.
