After the plenary meeting, the establishment of the new department aroused extensive discussion among all law enforcement officers, with both joy and worry among the discussants.
All members of the Logistics Department couldn't help but feel sad, because Song Lan's departure seemed to mean the end of snacks in the entire department. As practitioners of the Salted Fish Road, they knew very well how busy this new department would be.
For a long time in the past, eating snacks at work has become a very important part of their work. Without snacks, even movies and games will lose a lot of fun.
Amidst the wails from the logistics department, Song Lan walked to her new office with her packed things.
Since the Psychological Counseling Department takes an elite route, and including him as the section chief, there are only three members in total. Therefore, a medium-sized conference room is set aside for their use in the new office, which can be called the headquarters of law enforcement. The smallest department in the courtyard.
Standing at the door of the new office, Song Lan took several deep breaths to adjust her mood.
For him, there is a new world behind this door.
What kind of things will be waiting for him in the new world?
With such a mood, Song Lan opened the door.
Three seconds later, the conference room door was closed.
Well, I must have gone wrong.
After retreating, Song Lan carefully checked the sign next to the conference room:
"Psychological Counseling Department"
The sign that originally read "Conference Room" has been replaced. The words "Psychological Counseling Department" stung Song Lan's eyes. After hesitating again and again, he had to push the door open again.
This time, a pair of eyes full of death and ominousness were locked firmly on him. Those sharp eyes seemed to be able to see directly through a person's soul.
The man sitting on the swivel chair has an unshaven beard, a messy black hair, and a black suit full of wrinkles. If one ignores his sharp gaze, the first impression will be that of a man who has had a difficult life and has been in trouble recently. Older youth experiencing unemployment crisis.
However, this man's name immediately popped into Song Lan's mind:
"Death Negotiator"
The well-deserved negotiator of the law enforcement department of the 17th District, and the leader of the special operations team Doug are also known as the existence of criminal nemesis.
He was given this title because all the negotiations he had handled since he joined the job ended in the death of criminals without exception. Although he successfully rescued the hostages every time, almost every time he was The hostages left an indelible psychological shadow.
Over time, this man gained this extremely resounding name.
Even he, who usually doesn't care much about rumors, has heard more than once that if it wasn't for the short time he joined, he might have been promoted to section chief long ago.
Even so, the "death negotiator" still has high popularity among the law enforcers in District 17. Many law enforcers privately say that Director Lu, Captain Doug, and this death negotiator are the ones who dispel The darkness of District 17, the person who brings the long-lost justice back here.
Song Lan never expected that the expert Lu Xiang mentioned would be this man.
Is this an abuse of power, transferring an elite who is active on the front lines of fighting crime to their department?
Next, he won't be scolded, right?
After all, he was originally a leader in the real power department and the best candidate to be the next section chief.
"Hello, Chief Song."
The man broke the stifling silence in the office.
"Hello... death negotiator."
"Just call me Roger."
He is indeed an expert in death negotiation, even his name is so unusual!
This was the first time Song Lan heard the real name of this master negotiator.
He forced a smile and said, "Don't be angry yet. There must be something wrong. I'll go find Director Lu right now."
"It's my request to be transferred to this department."
Roger seemed to see through Song Lan's thoughts and explained.
"What?"
Song Lan was stunned for a moment, and then she wondered if this guy had been deceived by someone, "Let me explain first, our department is an internal department, and its purpose is to solve the psychological and emotional problems of other colleagues. It will not be related to crimes. The molecules are directly dealt with.”
"It is for this reason that I applied for transfer to Director Lu."
What's happening here?
Song Lan had three question marks on her head and couldn't understand the current situation at all. Could it be that during one of her missions, Roger suddenly saw through the world of mortals and decided to give up everything and return to the salty way?
Roger continued, "I firmly believe that this is the department that is best for me."
In order to solve problems for his colleagues, he uses the knowledge he has learned throughout his life to rescue those who are trapped in darkness from the abyss.
And this was the reason why he refused the opportunity to go to the core area and decided to stay in District 17 and become a law enforcer.
"Chief Song, why do you think this city is full of crime?"
Before Song Lan could speak, Roger asked him another soul question.
As expected of a negotiator, he firmly grasped the initiative of the topic in just a few words. The conversation between the two sounded like Roger was more like a section chief.
"Appreciate further details."
However, Song Lan was not a vegetarian. He only used four words to defuse the opponent's attack.
After saying these four words, he dragged the office supplies he had packed towards his desk and focused on packing up his office supplies.
For such people who like to take the initiative in topics and love long speeches, Song Lan usually has only one solution - you say your thing, and I'll do mine, supplemented by responses such as "right", "oh", and "sure" from time to time. Be polite and the conversation will go smoothly.
So even if Roger changes the topic from the crimes in District 17 to the mystery of the end of the universe, Song Lan will use his three axes to resolve them one by one.
As expected, Roger spoke alone, "In my opinion, it's because the people in District 17 are already living in sin, with high unemployment, missing persons everywhere, and the border Those criminals outside who are offering exorbitant rewards... Although District 17 is nominally under the jurisdiction of the coalition government, the laws of the coalition government have long abandoned this place.
"After becoming a law enforcement officer, I have studied the criminal records of the 17th District many times. There are only a very small number of hopeless criminals. The vast majority of people have embarked on the path of crime in order to survive. That's right. Therefore, if the survival problems of citizens cannot be solved from the root, the evil here will never disappear.
"However, one person's ability is very small. I can't change the coalition government's attitude towards the border. However, I at least hope to help those who are trapped in the abyss and give them a chance to return to their humanity."
