Chapter 228 Feel the power of the people of Chaoyang District!
Nadutong, North China Regional Headquarters.
When Zhang Chulan returned with Zhang Lingyu, Xu Si, the person in charge of the North China region, was already waiting at the door with Xu San to greet them.
Wow, that's so grand!
Zhang Chulan, who had just gotten off the car, couldn't help but complain inwardly at the sight of this scene.
Does this company really value Zhang Lingyu's joining? Why did the regional manager personally come to the gate to greet her? Both Wang Ye and Lu Lin had to go to Xu Si's office to report for duty themselves.
As soon as Zhang Lingyu got out of the car, Xu Si, who was already prepared, walked forward with a hearty laugh.
"Haha, welcome Master Lingyu! From now on, the safety of our North China region will depend on Master Lingyu."
Zhang Lingyu nodded slightly, still maintaining her calm demeanor.
"Mr. Xu, you flatter me. Lingyu is just a minor skill. I will have to rely on your understanding in the future."
Xu Si, ever the familiar type, put his arm around Zhang Lingyu and said, "Calling me Mr. Xu is too formal. Besides, Xu San and I both have the surname Xu, so it's not easy to tell us apart if you call me Mr. Xu. From now on, you can just call us Fourth Brother or Third Brother."
Xu Si's words made sense, and Zhang Lingyu hesitated for a moment before speaking slowly.
“I understand, Fourth Brother Xu…”
Upon hearing Zhang Lingyu call him "Fourth Brother," Xu Si laughed heartily, grabbed him, and led him inside.
"Come on, come on, I've made all the arrangements. I'll give you a proper welcome and a good wash."
"You've never been here before, have you? I'll arrange for someone to show you around for a few days."
Faced with Xu Si's enthusiasm, Zhang Lingyu politely declined his invitation to travel for a few days, saying seriously, "No need, Fourth Brother. I came down the mountain this time to gain some experience. Let's talk about traveling another time. Let's get started with our work."
Zhang Chulan looked at Zhang Lingyu, who was speaking righteously, with a surprised expression. He knew that Zhang Lingyu was very serious, but he did not expect him to be this serious!
Why is he demanding a job as soon as he arrives? He originally thought he could hang out with Zhang Lingyu for a few days.
He recalled the look that the old Celestial Master Zhang Zhiwei had given him in the pavilion yesterday. Could it be that Zhang Lingyu really came down the mountain for training?
Hearing Zhang Lingyu's words, Xu Si nodded with admiration and said to Zhang Chulan.
"Look at you, no wonder you're a disciple of the Celestial Master. You're so strict with yourself. You start working as soon as you arrive. Chu Lan, you should learn from this."
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhang Chulan mechanically agreed while asking Xu Si, "Hey, Fourth Brother, isn't our North China Special Operations Team a full-strength team of five? What position will Lingyu Zhenren hold?"
Xu Si did not answer Zhang Chulan's question; instead, Xu San spoke up from the side.
"I was just about to tell you that I will no longer be the captain of the Special Operations Team. There are more and more cases of supernatural beings in North China, and a new department needs to be established to help deal with them."
"I will be transferred to manage the operations of the new department. When that happens, one person will be available in the Special Operations Team, and you will fill that position. You will also be the team leader."
Upon hearing Xu San's words, Zhang Chulan almost burst out laughing. Being appointed as the captain was equivalent to a promotion for him! Zhang Chulan hadn't expected to be promoted so quickly.
While suppressing his excitement, Zhang Chulan rubbed his hands together and asked.
"Oh dear, this...this isn't appropriate. I've only been with Na Du Tong for a short time, and you're already making me the captain of the action team? Isn't that too fast?"
Xu Sili patted Zhang Chulan on the shoulder in a roguish manner.
"What? You don't want to do it? If you don't want to, I can ask Chairman Zhao to replace you with someone else."
“That’s not true.” Zhang Chulan immediately interrupted Xu Si, assuring him, “I promise not to let the organization down and to do a good job as captain.”
Hearing Zhang Chulan's assurance, Xu San smiled.
"Chu Lan, you don't need to put so much pressure on yourself. You've completed so many dangerous missions for Na Du Tong during this time. This is the position you deserve, and I believe you can definitely do it."
Having learned that he was about to be promoted, Zhang Chulan walked into the company with his head held high and Zhang Lingyu.
Watching Zhang Chulan's retreating figure, Xu San shook his head with amusement.
……
After arranging accommodations for Zhang Lingyu, his career in the special operations team officially began.
To Zhang Lingyu's surprise, he discovered that the daily work of the special operations team was somewhat different from what he had imagined.
He initially thought the task force's main targets would be the outcasts causing trouble in the area, but in reality...
……
"Come on, Junior Uncle, have some water and bread to rest. We're waiting for you."
Zhang Lingyu thanked Zhang Chulan and accepted the bread and bottled water he received.
At this moment, he and Zhang Chulan were sitting in a car, staring intently at a customer in a restaurant on the street, while Wang Ye, Lu Lin, and Feng Baobao were also keeping watch at other intersections.
As soon as Zhang Lingyu put down his luggage, Zhang Chulan told him that there was a case that needed to be handled.
Just when he thought he was about to have a duel with someone, Zhang Chulan helped him put on makeup and then drove around following someone.
"Chu Lan, why are we following him? Did he do something wrong?"
While keeping an eye on the target eating in the restaurant, Zhang Chulan said, "Didn't I tell you? The target is suspected of illegally providing sexual services, but we don't have any evidence yet, so we need to follow him to see if we can find any substantial evidence."
A question mark flashed across Zhang Lingyu's face.
"Does cracking down on prostitution really require our special operations team? Shouldn't that be the job of the anti-prostitution squad?"
"Does Junior Uncle still know about the anti-prostitution squad? I thought you were always cultivating on the mountain." Zhang Chulan glanced at Zhang Lingyu in surprise.
“Uh…” Zhang Lingyu was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent, which was rare for her.
After he was tricked into having sex by Xia He when he came down the mountain, he was reported by the residents of Chaoyang District and then arrested by an officer surnamed Mo from the anti-prostitution squad.
Xia He noticed the group was coming and jumped out of the window to run away, leaving him alone in the hotel to be taken away. In the end, it was his senior brother Zhao Huanjin who came and took him away.
But could he tell Zhang Chulan about this? Obviously not.
“I sometimes study in the mountains.”
"Is that so? As expected of Junior Uncle, he doesn't forget to study even on the mountain." Zhang Chulan nodded, not doubting Zhang Lingyu's words, and continued to explain to him.
"This person is an extraordinary individual, and a rather skilled one at that. The anti-prostitution squad has been unable to find any evidence against him, so they asked us to help them out."
Wanting to change the subject, Zhang Lingyu casually asked, "I remember there's a girl in Northeast China named Gao Erzhuang, right? Isn't she able to hack into electronic devices? Why don't you ask her for help?"
At this point, Zhang Chulan sighed.
"Miss Gao, her abilities are basically useless now."
