Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings

"Haha, what Superintendent Du said is interesting, really interesting!" Charles said with a smile.

"We all respect Superintendent Du very much. Of course, from superintendent to principal, we also believe that you can be perfectly qualified! As for now--"

Charles's face changed, "Those of us still have things to do, so we won't bother you anymore, Principal Du! Come here, let's go out and do some work, and let Principal Du have a good rest!"

"Yes, Principal Du is here for the first time, so I'd better take a good rest! As for work, don't think about it yet!"

"We're leaving, Principal Du, take care! Haha!"

The Assam group spoke sarcastically and walked out of the office one by one.

Soon, there was no one else in the office.

Zhuang Dingxian couldn't help but kicked the broken newspaper under his feet: "Push to the street! These bastards are obviously trying to show off their power!"

Du Yongxiao smiled, leaned back on the chair, took out a cigarette and bit the corner of his mouth, "Of course, I was transferred here from the police force and I touched their cheese, how could they obey?"

"So what do we do?"

"What to do? Just wait and see what happens!" Du Yongxiao lit his cigarette and looked sideways out of the window at the hazy drizzle.

Du Yongxiao blew out a light smoke and said: "This is such a good weather!

…

Three days in a row.

Except for asking the cleaning staff to come and help take care of Du Yongxiao's principal's office, Charles never came again.

The same goes for everyone else. No one came to say hello to Du Yongxiao, let alone talk about work.

No matter how you look at it, Du Yongxiao, the principal, is just an empty show, a decoration, and dispensable.

All police academy affairs were signed and approved by Charles, the vice-principal, and no one would show the documents to Du Yongxiao for inspection.

Du Yongxiao didn't seem to have any ambitions and didn't care about it.

In the past three days, he ran on the playground in the morning, went out to eat at noon, and returned to the office in the afternoon to read newspapers and drink tea. He lived like a retired cadre.

Du Yongxiao's attitude made Charles and others even more complacent, thinking that Du Yongxiao was just a paper tiger and nothing to worry about.

Did you see that when you came here, you didn’t just stay here like a sick cat?

Soon, a week passed.

The sensation caused by Du Yongxiao's arrival in the entire police academy gradually died down.

Those police trainees who admired Du Yongxiao so much gradually lost their enthusiasm. They felt that Du Yongxiao was just like that, too different from the legendary one. He didn't even have a bit of domineering power. He was even stepped on by the ghost vice principal Charles.

"How could this happen? Superintendent Du is my idol, but now -"

"Hey, being famous is not as good as seeing him! Superintendent Du disappoints me so much!"

"I heard that he was very majestic, but it turned out that everything was fake!"

These police trainees felt that they had seen the truth, and shook their heads and sighed. The tall image Du Yongxiao had created in their hearts was about to be destroyed.

this day--

Principal Du, who had been silent, suddenly called Charles and others and said that a high-level group meeting was going to be held.

"Meeting?" Charles sneered when he heard the word. "What the hell? There has been no movement for a week, and now you want to have a meeting?"

"Perhaps I am lonely in the office alone and want to show off my prestige! Try to live the life of being a principal!" Indian Assam said with a smile.

"Then shall we go?" Qian Duoren, who was in charge of finance, asked.

"Of course I want to go!" Charles said with a sinister smile, "After all, I am the principal. The principal calls everyone to a meeting, so I have to give him some face!"

"Bullshit!" Instructor Wu Yuanjia waved his fist and sneered: "We'll see what he does later. If you want to teach us, you have to measure your own energy!"

"Gaga, let's see him make a fool of himself!"

The four people laughed at each other, feeling that Du Yongxiao was a clown in front of them.

…

"Hey, did you hear? The new Principal Du is going to have a meeting!"

"No way, there has been no movement for so long, and now we have a meeting? What do you mean?"

"What else could it mean? Of course he is trying to show off his power and let everyone know about his existence!"

In the corridor of the office building, several office workers whispered.

"His existence? What's the point of being an empty principal?"

"Keep your voice down, after all, I'm still the principal in name!"

"Haha! In name?"

Several office workers looked at each other with smiles, their eyes full of contempt.

…

Half an hour before the meeting——

In the bathroom, Assam, an Indian man with a turban on his head and a brand new suit, was whistling and playing in the urinal.

Suddenly, there was a rushing sound from the side.

Assam turned around and saw that it was Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly at him.

Assam hurriedly turned away. He hated making eye contact with people at this time.

Du Yongxiao didn't care, shrugged and continued.

A moment——

Du Yongxiao stabbed himself, zipped up his trousers, and came to the washbasin one step ahead of Assam.

Wow!

Du Yongxiao washed his hands in front of the faucet, straightened his hairstyle in the mirror, and wiped his temples with water to look more stylish.

At this time, Assam came over and stood behind him, waiting for Du Yongxiao to finish using the washbasin before using it himself.

Du Yongxiao looked at Assam behind him in the mirror and suddenly said: "Sir, to be honest, do you still recognize me?"

"Uh, what do you mean?" Assam was stunned.

Du Yongxiao smiled and said: "The gold Rolex watch you are wearing seems to have been given to you by me a long time ago!"

"Huh?" Assam subconsciously retracted his wrist, "Ahem, are you——"

"Have you forgotten?" Du Yongxiao then turned around and looked at Assam with a smile: "In 1967, you seemed to be in charge of the distribution of plainclothes police officers. You were my interviewer at that time!"

Assam was stunned: "Are you - that young man from the top of the mountain?"

"Yes, I actually lived in Shixiawei at the time!"

Assam looked at Du Yongxiao carefully and realized that he was really familiar with him.

"It turns out it's you!"

"That's right, it's me!" Du Yongxiao said with a smile, "I really want to thank you, sir, for your guidance back then. Du always keeps it in mind!"

As he spoke, Du Yongxiao pulled out a few tissues and didn't use them himself, but actively handed them to Assam.

Assam proudly took the tissue and said, "Ah ha, I didn't expect you to be so successful now! Well, do your best in the future and don't let me down!" He looked like a boss.

"Of course, how could I disappoint you? But -" Du Yongxiao paused and looked at Assam with half-smiling eyes, "But sir, you better not disappoint me!"

"Uh, what do you mean?"

"It means -" Du Yongxiao took out a document from his arms and handed it to Assam, "Well, you also know what I used to do. These documents are all evidence of your corruption while in power. For your sake Because of my acquaintance, I didn’t hand it over to the Independent Commission Against Corruption! So—”

Du Yongxiao took a step forward, wiped his still-undried hands on Assam's brand new suit, and then patted Assam on the shoulder: "I hope you can see the situation clearly!"

Assam looked at the information and then looked at Du Yongxiao——

moment--

His face was ashen!
