"After you graduate tomorrow, you will be sent out on duty to become a real police officer. Do you still remember what I taught you, what are the accusations of being a police officer?"
In September 1949, at Wong Chuk Hang Police Academy, next to the training ground, Gao Pu was walking among a group of shirtless and underpants trainees who had become tougher after half a year of training.
"Maintain social order." Lei Luo replied seriously.
Gao Pu grunted and continued walking back and forth: "The so-called social order is very complicated. What principles do you use to maintain social order?"
"Hong Kong's laws and police regulations."
"We should protect ourselves first and then follow the instructions from our superiors."
Gao Pu continued to ask: "If your superior is corrupt and wants you to collect black money together, will you accept it?"
Lei Luo didn't even think about it and replied loudly: "I won't accept it."
"What about you?" Gao Pu was noncommittal and patted another student who answered the question.
The man hesitated for a moment and said firmly: "I will accept it."
Lei Luo waved his hand half-heartedly and made a sound of disdain.
"Actually, in this world, all the rules are dead. When you implement them, they become alive." Gao Pu stopped walking back and forth and sat next to Wang Yan, who was smoking: "If you want to A good policeman wants to stand out. First, obey his superiors. Second, identify with the masses. If he goes against the grain and thinks he is noble, then his end will be begging. The secrets are all left to you. As an instructor, I definitely hope that all All the students are having a great time outside. Of course, if you can prosper in the future and come back to thank me, then I will be very happy."
"Old Gao, do you teach it to every class of students?"
Gao Pu's smiling face froze, and then he turned around and looked at Wang Yan angrily with a blushing face: "You brat, I'm just telling you what I'm saying. I hope that 'Brother Yan' will become rich and still remember me. The little instructor who brought you into the industry is here to support you."
Wang Yan took out a cigarette and gave one to him, then threw the rest to Lei Luo aside: "Of course, just say this, Brother Yan, if I really become prosperous one day, I will definitely not forget you. Yes, don't worry." As he spoke, he patted his shoulder to encourage him.
"You brat, I hope so." Gao Pu said as the student helped him light his cigarette.
He really feels that this 'Brother Yan' can rise to the top, can fight, dares to fight, and can also speak Guilao's English. He is not rigid, has the ability to change, and is good at dancing and can win over people. In the current environment of Hong Kong Island, there is no reason why such a person cannot rise to the top. As long as you hold on, given time, it will be easy to become a detective. When you reach the position of detective, even if it is a place where there is not much oil and water, or even no oil and water at all, you are still a detective, not comparable to a police academy instructor like him.
Seeing a group of students, including Lei Luo and the fried guy, handing out cigarettes, Wang Yan crossed his legs and puffed out cigarettes: "Old Gao, where was I assigned?"
"You don't know how popular you are. Detectives such as Yan Tong, Chen Tong, Lan Gang, etc., as well as some powerful Chinese detectives from other regions have all come to us to ask for people, and they all want to do it. You’re the boss.”
"How could I not know? Didn't Guiguo already say that I am the person with the best performance in all aspects of the police academy from its establishment to now? Whoever becomes my boss can get promoted and get rich in minutes? I am so powerful, why don't I I heard that the Chief Inspector is here to ask for someone?"
"The chief detective has already reached the end, where can I get promoted? Those who want you are either ambitious or want to keep their position. The competition is fierce. Don't be so arrogant. I tell you Ayan, if by then you If you go to someone else's place and you don't get any good results, you don't know what kind of squeeze you're going to get."
"Being squeezed out? It depends on who has the bigger fist." Wang Yan waved his hands and said, "You tell me, why are you getting further and further away? Where am I assigned?"
"You are old. Seeing that you are so promising, I can't help but say a few more words." Gao Pu complained and glared at the boy who didn't know a good heart: "Detective Chen Tong, who is assigned to the Criminal Division of Ciyunshan Police Station. Senior subordinates, oh, and Aluo was also assigned there, which happened to be not far from Dongtou Village where you lived. But in the past, you all had to start as a uniformed police officer. Even if your grades were good and you didn't get any credit, Even if you want to be promoted to civilian clothes, you have to endure it.”
"Inspector Chen Tong...I heard you are quite old, right? I am so good and the competition is so fierce, why would I spend so much money?"
"To tell you the truth, I used to work with Detective Chen Tong. My uncle helped me a lot. He also found some people. As an instructor, I can also influence some of them. Didn't this just get you here... …”
The conversation between the two was very low, and they were sitting close to each other. The eyes of others were envious, and there was nothing they could do about it even if they wanted to hear the secret.
"Oh~" Wang Yan said with a long oh, and said with a smile: "Look, you also said that I will help you when I get rich in the future. Now, doesn't this just let you get some glory and borrow the glory? No, you have to wait until tomorrow You have to treat me to something nice to eat or drink, otherwise I won’t feel comfortable being betrayed by you like this.”
Inspector Chen Tong is the uncle who supports Lei Luo among the 500 million detectives. His situation is not very good. Although the detective is more majestic, there are even more majestic detectives, such as Yan Tong. No one likes someone to show off their power in front of them, and no one likes to be submissive to others, especially Yan Tong who used to hang out with Chen Tong. Chen Tong was old and was only a few years away from normal retirement. It was understandable that he would find one of the best people in the history of Wong Chuk Hang to take a chance on him and avenge his shame.
And based on what Gao Pu said, Chen Tong didn't spend too much money, he just found some people who made it a lot easier. It can also be seen from this that this old boy has high hopes for Mr. Wang. If you can't get promoted as an official, you have to fight for your reputation no matter what. After all, with the strength he has shown now, it is no problem to deal with dishonest gangsters, and to carry out assassinations when desperate. If someone is afraid, it will be powerful, and if it is powerful, it will be advantageous. On the other hand, Chen Tong can get him over and has the energy.
Of course, Chen Tong can get him over, but on the other hand, his price tag is only so much. They are officials, and if they want him to be useful, it is not that useful. There is no need to spend too much useless resources and energy on a subordinate who seems to be very capable at the moment. After all, there are many famous people, but they all die young.
Seeing that Wang Yan understood the details, but didn't pay too much attention to it, Gao Pu breathed a sigh of relief. He was really proud of Wang Yan. If he has an opinion about him because of such things, then he will see clearly that Wang Yan can only fight an ordinary man and he will not live long. But now I have given him a meal in turn and have deepened the relationship. He is very satisfied.
"It's easy to talk about. After the arrangements are made tomorrow, we can leave in the afternoon. I will take you, oh yes, and Aluo too. Let's have a drink." Gao Pu said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Aluo's performance is good. You are so strong, but I know that you two have a good relationship, so I spent a lot of effort to transfer him and let you two be together. You have to thank me properly for dinner tomorrow."
"Of course, we both thank you, that's it."
Nodding, Gao Pu said a few words and left simply.
Today's subjects have been trained, and what needs to be said and taught has been said and taught. Tomorrow, you only need to attend a graduation ceremony. After listening to the superior's lecture, the staff here will tell you the assigned location, and then you can take it. The police academy issued a certificate and left. The next day, I reported to the assigned police station, received uniforms and equipment, and after a three-day holiday, I officially took up my post.
Seeing Gao Pu leave, Lei Luo sat down next to Wang Yan: "Brother Yan, what did you say to the instructor just now?"
Looking at Lei Luo, who was eager for knowledge, Wang Yan said with a smile: "He said it was an honor for him to teach such a powerful person like me. To express his gratitude, he would treat me to dinner tomorrow afternoon. Of course, as my good brother, You also have a share, and you can join in and have a delicious meal."
"Shouldn't we pay for the meal? What's the point?"
"You know nothing." Wang Yan shook his head and did not explain: "Also, the instructor said that the two of us were assigned to Ciyun Mountain to work as uniformed police officers together."
"Ciyun Mountain? It's good. It's not too far from our home." Lei Luo ran through the map in his mind: "It's great that the two of us can be together. With Brother Yan here, I feel a lot more at ease." "
"Go away, what you said is so disgusting, I don't want to be gay." Wang Yan hit him neither lightly nor hard.
"I'm not gay either." Lei Luo chuckled: "By the way, Brother Yan, the instructor just asked about collecting illegal money, will you accept it?"
Wang Yan shook his head and said: "Aluo, I know you want to be a good policeman, protect the safety of ordinary people, and uphold justice. But you have to understand that you are just a small uniformed policeman, and even among the uniformed policemen, you are still the lowest. Yes. You can be yourself, and you don’t need to take money, but Aluo, if you don’t take money from everyone else, that’s a sin. You will be squeezed out, looked down upon by others, and even unable to be a police officer. The most important thing is to be a good man. What is it? It can bend and stretch, it can be soft and hard, it can bow its head.
You should take a long-term view, and don't get hung up on whether to collect money for the moment. That makes no sense. The current rules are set by others. How can you last long if you are working under others and don't abide by their rules? Aren't you a very good policeman? Don’t you want to be a good person? Then you have to climb to a high position, become the one who sets the rules, and let others abide by your rules, do you understand? "
Lei Luo was silent, thinking about Brother Yan's words.
"Don't think nonsense. If you don't accept illegal money, you will be ostracized and lose your job. If you accept illegal money, you can't pass the test in your mind. How do you choose? Of course, you have to accept it. You have to eat. It's not a man to be hesitant. I'm not afraid that you won't be able to climb to a high position. I'm just afraid that you won't be able to uphold your true intentions once you reach a high position. Alor, never forget what you want. Don't be corrupted by others. The most important thing is to be yourself. Don't accept others. Black money, so much that I forget my last name."
Lei Luo let out a long breath and smiled: "Don't worry, Brother Yan, I, Lei Luo, will always be upright."
"Tell me about tongue twisters? It's up to you how you do it." Wang Yan turned to look at the other people listening to him: "Not only Aluo, but you too, the police, it's just a job, it depends on what you think ”
A group of people responded one after another, but did not say anything more. No money? No fool would accept it. After half a year of exhausting work, why? Not just money.
Wang Yan waved his hand, stood up and left unsteadily. He said these words not because he wanted these people to do anything, but just to take care of Lei Luo's gossip. Of course, he doesn't expect Lei Luo to do anything. After all, sitting in a high position and becoming the maker of rules has always been his business, and Lei Luo has no part in it. It's just that while the child is still passionate, ideal, and ambitious, you can stimulate him with words first, so that he doesn't grow crooked. He doesn't expect these words to change a person, it's better to be around him in the future.
This night, none of the eleven people in the dormitory were sleepy. You and I talked about some random thoughts, and the other two hundred or so people should also do the same. They are all young men in their twenties, working as police officers and collecting illegal money. They are inevitably yearning for the unknown life that is about to come. Especially for a group of people who don't know where they will be assigned, whether they have a future, etc., so they can't sleep normally.
Wang Yan did not participate in their boring conversation, and lay down on his upper bunk, feeling comfortable in the early autumn breeze of Hong Kong Island blowing in from the window...
The next day, after a graduation speech, the work location was assigned, and in the afternoon Lei Luo and Gao Pu were taken to have dinner and drinks together. Of course it was not him who paid for it as Lei Luo said, but Gao Pu. They just want to be close to each other, and if they look into the matter of selling someone Wang, they should pay for it, and it is wrong for him to fight for the money.
Although Lei Luo's drinking capacity is not very good, a few glasses of wine will not suffice. However, it is a long distance from Wong Chuk Hang back to Tung Tau Village in Kowloon. There is currently no tunnel connecting Hong Kong and Kowloon, and you have to take a boat to cross the sea. So along the way, by the time the two returned to Dongtou Village in the evening, Lei Luo had almost sobered up.
"Okay, I know you haven't seen Amei for half a year, and you're already thinking about it. Go quickly." Looking at Lei Luo who was following him with a constipated look on his face, Wang Yan waved his hand.
"Brother Yan, I'll leave first. I'll go find you tomorrow morning." Lei Luo chuckled, turned around and ran away.
Seeing him like that, Wang Yan shook his head, smiled, and continued walking towards home. Speaking of which, Lei Luo's girlfriend is quite beautiful, and she is also a beautiful lady... But brothers and wives should not be bullied, so let's forget it. After all, that is Lei Luo's girlfriend. Now that he and Wang are here, it is impossible for the two of them to get separated. It's better not to think blindly. Although his surname is Wang, and although sometimes he has no bottom line, there are times when...
Today's Hong Kong Island has just ended the war and it has not been long since it was taken back from Japan. The wave of people fleeing Hong Kong has not yet broken out. The contradiction between man and land is not too prominent, far from reaching the level it later became. So relatively speaking, the current house area is still sufficient.
His house this time was a two-story wooden building facing the street. It looked like an illegal construction and was not very orderly. Of course, most houses here are like this and no one cares.
Opening the locked door, Wang Yan stepped in and looked around. The two-story house is not large in area. The first floor is the kitchen and the second floor is the bedroom. There are only a few decent pieces of furniture and they are in tatters. As for the standard equipment for each shuttle, there are no bookshelves full of books. It's normal to think about it. According to his resume this time, it was pretty good for him to settle down when he first came here. Living is quite strenuous. How can he have time to read?
Although the house was simple and dilapidated, with only four walls, he didn't care much. It was enough to have shelter from the wind and rain and a place to stay. However, he remembered that there was a fire in Dongtou Village, which destroyed the house and killed people. He would still remind some nearby neighbors in the future. No matter how dilapidated the house is, it is still called a nest. It is always a pity if the fire goes out.
After shopping around, Wang Yan went out to eat at the food stall outside to fill his stomach. After returning home, he boiled water and wiped his body briefly with a towel. Then he went upstairs and lay down on the wooden boat, resting his hands on his head, and concluded. Thinking about the future.
The first thing, of course, is to spread out the sea of stars in his mind, and for the sea of stars, the most important thing is money. He now owns more than a thousand yuan, which is not enough for anything, so he has to make money first.
He is a policeman now and will be a policeman in the future. It is of course easy to make money. But those black money cannot be used as funds to operate the company, otherwise they will all be hidden dangers in the future, which is not good. Now he is still a uniformed policeman. He has to obey other people's rules and follow the morning and evening patrols. He doesn't have much time for himself. And now he doesn't have anyone trustworthy who is responsible for running the company and other things. These are all things to consider.
For the time being, he couldn't do anything. After all, he had no money. Moreover, his gold mine 'Strengthening Pills' cannot be sold. If you don't have the strength to match it, selling it is courting death. This is not the time when he was a gangster leader. He had thousands of subordinates who were all doing business and was not afraid of anyone. To make a living under other people's hands means to do things in a high profile, behave in a low profile, and mix up your power. When he can be the boss of half of the Chinese people in the police force, then he can start to shake things up.
So now there are two things first. 1. Get promoted, at least become a plainclothes detective. 2. Find a trusted subordinate to run errands.
After roughly understanding the preliminary plan, Wang Yan quickly fell asleep with his eyes closed, and only orderly and long breathing remained in the shabby room...
The next day, Wang Yan got up early as usual and went out for a run and boxing.
I have to say that the place he lives in is really not that good. The public health is very bad. Occasionally, passing by a cesspit that has been revealed by default is so refreshing. In such an environment, even the best scenery is in vain. He only ran for a while and then stopped. He found a clean place with no smell from the wind and hit him with two sets of punches.
It was only after six o'clock when I got home, and Lei Luo, who was yawning with dark circles under his eyes, was already sitting in the room.
"Why, I haven't seen Amei for a long time, and you completely defeated her yesterday?"
"It's nothing." Lei Luo waved his hands repeatedly, taking care of his girlfriend's innocence: "It's because I thought about going to the police station to report today, so I was so excited that I couldn't sleep well."
Looking at the awkward silly boy, Wang Yan waved his hand: "Is it something sooner or later? I see you are nervous. Okay, let's go there after I finish washing up."
"Okay." Lei Luo responded with a silly smile, with a piggy look on his face, maybe he thought of the scene of 'sooner or later'...
After a quick wash, the two set off, legs crossed. It's only three kilometers, not that far, and we reached the place quickly. Because they arrived too early, the police station hadn't gone to work yet, so the two of them hadn't had breakfast yet, so they found a breakfast stall near the police station and had breakfast...
