"If I can’t do it, then I’m not Gu Ji!"
Even though he knew she was using reverse psychology, Gu Ji took it seriously and straightened up imdiately: "Bring it on! Who’s afraid of who!"
"Alright! Give your hand!"
Chen Zhiyu didn’t hold back, grabbed Gu Ji’s hand, interlocking their fingers, "The other one!"
Once both of their hands were firmly clasped together, she stepped back half a step, bending her hips and lowering herself into a goat stance, seriously saying:
"These two tiles are the boundary, whoever steps out loses!"
"Huh? This is what you ant by trying it out?"
Gu Ji was slightly taken aback.
Chen Zhiyu pouted her little mouth, her face full of competitiveness.
"Otherwise? You’re not scared, are you?"
"Hahaha, you little girl..."
Gu Ji was amused by her serious deanor, but then gritted his teeth seriously: ", afraid of you?"
"Then let’s start! Countdown three, ready... go!"
Unexpectedly, Chen Zhiyu pushed with sudden force without counting down, forcing Gu Ji to step back half a tile.
"You’re cheating!"
"It’s called strategic deceit, hehe!"
Chen Zhiyu smugly snorted. Although she was a girl, she had undergone full special police training for four years in college; her strength wasn’t only on par with ordinary guys, but even exceeded them.
However, once Gu Ji truly exerted himself, the little advantage she gained from her sneak attack disappeared instantly.
"Ugh... since when did you beco so strong?"
"Hey? Weren’t you the one saying I’m useless?"
"Damn it! I have to win against you... ugh..."
As Chen Zhiyu exerted herself fully, a blush gradually appeared on her face, her eyes gazing at Gu Ji like a slightly tipsy girl, full of allure.
Gu Ji felt an inexplicable heat in his chest.
"If you want to compete, just compete seriously instead of making weird noises, alright?"
"Ugh... what weird noises..."
Chen Zhiyu was entirely focused on the struggle at this point.
"I just can’t with you, girl."
Gu Ji swallowed dryly, his thigh muscles explosively pushing forward, forcefully pushing Chen Zhiyu out of the tile boundary.
"Ah!"
Chen Zhiyu stumbled back a couple of steps, not expecting to lose so easily. She rembered chasing Gu Ji around when they were kids, and even in college, the gap between them hadn’t widened much. Had he been holding back all these years?
However, seeing Gu Ji beco so excellent made her truly happy for him, although she couldn’t quite put her pride aside:
"Hmph, you won."
Seeing Chen Zhiyu with her cute, puffed-out cheeks and a slightly aggrieved expression, Gu Ji chuckled: "Alright, it’s just a ga. Co on, I’ll treat you to a feast!"
"Really? Then I want barbecue!"
"Okay, I’ll get you extra skewers of kidneys!"
"Get lost, get lost! Keep it for yourself!"
"Hahaha!"
...
After having barbecue for lunch, Gu Ji helped Chen Zhiyu organize her new ho in the afternoon. Once he returned to his dorm, he fell asleep imdiately because early the next morning, he had to report to the training base with Gao Bo.
Morning, eight o’clock.
Ningzhou City Police Training Base.
Gu Ji and Gao Bo arrived at the base training hall on ti, which was actually a factory building converted into a training facility, with cent walls, green epoxy floors, and two levels. The hall was already crowded with nurous training officers, half of whom were classmates from Ningzhou Police Academy, including Wu Kang.
Upon seeing the two, Wu Kang walked over, deliberately glanced at Gu Ji, and said with a smile:
"Gu Ji, Gao Bo, long ti no see! I heard you both got into the special patrol police too. I’m in the Wuxuan District special police assault team, so we’ll inevitably need your support in the future. Let’s stay in touch often!"
Gao Bo gave him a token greeting and then muttered disdainfully:
"I really can’t tell if Wu Kang does it deliberately or is just low on emotional intelligence, acting all high and mighty as if we’re naturally supposed to support him, even though we’re all equals in the sa system!"
Gu Ji just smiled slightly.
He knew that Wu Kang’s look was intentional, clearly aid at him.
"Stop it, the boss is here!"
A reminder from soone silenced the noisy hall imdiately, and, in the next second, the doors opened, and in walked several senior officers in white and blue shirts.
To Gu Ji’s surprise.
A familiar-looking middle-aged officer in a white shirt, with dark skin and an authoritative air even without anger, turned out to be the examiner who questioned him during his interview.
The high-ranking official from the City Bureau first delivered an impassioned speech, then introduced the instructors and arranged the courses.
The induction training was, as usual, set for a month. During training, no one could leave the base, and als and accommodations were all provided there. Phones had to be submitted as well.
As for the training courses, it was the usual trio: public security business knowledge, police skills training, and police practical operations.
The Ningzhou City Bureau really spared no expense this ti, inviting the Ministry of Public Security’s chief instructor.
Li Ruilin, looking at Gu Ji in the queue handing over his phone, nudged a policeman nearby with a slicked-back hairstyle, thick lips, and brown skin, humorously saying in a deep voice:
"He’s the kid I told you about. You’ve got to keep a close eye on him for !"
"Got it, Mr. Li. You play the bad cop and I play the good cop, just like how you trained us back in the day. Don’t worry!"
...
Soon, the 2024 induction training officially began.
anwhile.
In Japan, at Yokohama Port.
It wasn’t even nine in the morning yet, and the blue harbor was filled with various ships of all sizes, occasionally interrupted by the sharp sounds of ship horns.
As Japan’s second-largest sea port, Yokohama Port was bustling with people, not only tourists but also many fishern and cargo workers from rchant ships.
"Mom, I’m sorry, but I really don’t have any money left, and recently my blood sugar..."
Among the crowd, a beautiful woman with delicate features and long shoulder-length hair was hurriedly weaving through the throngs with a suitcase in hand, her face lined with worry.
Unexpectedly, her mother’s scolding voice ca through the phone:
"What do you an you have no money! You’re earning so much abroad, how could you have no money? I’m telling you, your dad spent a lot on getting you abroad back then. Now we’re asking you to send so money back ho, and you’re not willing? Your brother needs the money for his startup right now, and you can’t even help this much? Are you still part of this family!"
"Mom! I’ve already sent over 300,000 ho over the years! But my brother still hasn’t changed, still addicted to gambling. If it weren’t for him, Dad wouldn’t have been forced to fish late at night and had his accident."
Thinking of this, the long-haired woman felt a pang of bitterness in her nose.
Her mother’s voice suddenly raised three pitches: "So you’re blaming your brother for working your father to death?"
"I... Mom, I’m just trying to say I have my own life too. If it’s about my brother, please don’t call about it anymore. The hole can’t be filled! Beep, beep, beep..."
With that, she resolutely hung up the phone, entered the port security checkpoint, and pulled out her passport and the electronic ticket information on her phone.
And on it, it proudly displayed the na: Jian Na!
