The time to clock in and out of work has passed, the window of the Changyang Branch for external services is closed, and the police sisters in the bureau are tidying up, laughing and talking about their parents' shortcomings before going home, walking to the carport together, and going their separate ways after work.

The police station gradually quieted down, and Qin Xu sat on the back chair, leaning back slightly, with a thoughtful expression.

Today is not his duty, and there is no urgent business at this time, he can get a rare time to leave work on time.

But he didn't leave.

On his desk, there is a hamster small iron cage that he bought earlier.

The little hamster in the changed environment still looks very cramped, hiding in a small nest stuffed with a few cottons, and even the dry food in the food box has not been reduced.

Old Master Qin didn't stay in the drawer of Qin Xu's desk to swipe his mobile phone as usual, he should have hid back in the white bones of the divine beast to cultivate.

The consumption in the afternoon had a great impact on the old Qin master who was living in the white bones of the divine beast, and after explaining the general situation to Qin Xu, the old Qin master, who had changed his appearance, did not appear.

Qin Xu had something in his heart, holding a black pen in his hand, knocking on the hamster's small white cage one after another.

In the upper left of Qin Xu's position, Huang Zhenghao was sitting in his place with a distressed expression. His eyes were glued to the notebook in front of him, and next to him was a bowl of instant noodles that had been soaked and cooled.

Based on Qin Xu's understanding of him, he was scratching his scalp from time to time at that time, Huang Zhenghao should be thinking about some troublesome problems.

"Master, what do you want?" Qin Xu put down the pen in his hand, walked to him, knocked on Huang Zhenghao's table, and said, "Hurry up and eat noodles, it's almost soaked." ”

Huang Zhenghao was reminded by Qin Xu, and then he suddenly remembered the bowl of noodles in his hand, scooped up the chopsticks, took two bites, swept all the noodles into his stomach with three times and five divided by two, took a sip of cold soup, put it down tastelessly, and then looked up at Qin Xu and asked:

"It's not your night shift today, why don't you go back?" Huang Zhenghao swallowed the instant noodles in his mouth, wanted to pick up the water cup on the side, and with a light hand, he found that the kettle had long been empty.

Qin Xu took Huang Zhenghao's kettle in his hand, walked to the water dispenser on the side, and poured him a glass of warm water.

Huang Zhenghao didn't hear Qin Xu's answer, as a master's mistake again, he couldn't help but persuade from the perspective of someone who came over: "You can't do this, let me tell you, this work is never finished, when it's time for you to rest, don't stay in the bureau, listen to my advice, and talk about your girlfriend while you're young, even if you don't have a partner, go home to accompany your parents and the elderly at home." ”

Huang Zhenghao nagged about his apprentice, he was already familiar with it, and Qin Xu didn't have to say anything, moved a chair, sat next to Huang Zhenghao, and listened quietly.

When I first entered the police station for an internship last year, I was assigned to Huang Zhenghao as an apprentice, and followed him to the police to deal with the police situation and complete the tasks in the bureau.

A master with a rough personality can get 120 points for his apprentice's competency. Whether it is at work or in life, he often violates his image of a middle-aged tough guy, and he is comprehensive and reminds him to take care of him.

Qin Xu's chest sank slightly, and he subconsciously glanced to the side, pursed his lips, and then said, "Master, what is this that makes you worry like this?"

Huang Zhenghao heard that this kid was changing the topic, he shook his head with a smile, guessing that young people probably didn't like to talk about these things, so he felt that he didn't continue to dislike people, waved his hand, and said: "From time to time, there are a couple of old couples in the second building of Chengfeng Community, after retirement, they collect and sort out the waste recycling garbage all day long, and neighbors complain, affecting the corridor environment and causing fire hazards." ”

This seems to be the case that Lu Lihui took at that time, and he went to mediate at that time. Qin Xu thought for a while and said.

"No, the fundamental contradiction has not been resolved, and no matter how much mediation is used. Huang Zhenghao sighed and said, "It's always like this to make trouble in our bureau again and again, to put it bluntly, it's a waste of police power, and we have to find a way to solve it......"

Huang Zhenghao said and spoke, suddenly stopped, squinted his eyes slightly, stared at Qin Xu's face, and looked at it for a long time before frowning and asking, "You kid must have something on his mind, to be honest, what's going on?"

Huang Zhenghao was originally a criminal investigator, and he has a strong ability to observe words and feelings.

Although Qin Xu has not been working for a long time, the master and apprentice get along day and night, and Huang Zhenghao has a little understanding of Qin Xu's demeanor and demeanor.

He sensed that this apprentice, who had just joined the work for a short time, obviously had something on his mind.

Huang Zhenghao's questioning was simple and direct, without beating around the bush.

This is also the way they get along with each other.

"......" Qin Xu turned the pen in his hand silently, his eyes subconsciously glanced at the corner of the wall, and did not immediately answer Huang Zhenghao's question.

Huang Zhenghao didn't urge, his brows didn't loosen, he picked up the kettle and poured two mouthfuls into his mouth, and waited for a long time before he heard Qin Xu speak:

"Master, I'm resigning. ”

"Bang dang!

Huang Zhenghao's hand slipped, the kettle smashed on the desk, and then rolled to the ground, most of the pot of water spilled out, wetting Huang Zhenghao's desk, the materials on the tabletop and the floor under his feet.

Qin Xu squatted down and picked up Huang Zhenghao's kettle.

In just over ten seconds, Huang Zhenghao's face instantly turned red, his eyes widened, and he took a deep breath, he stared at Qin Xu, and saw that he was restraining his emotions.

Qin Xu put the empty kettle on the table, raised his eyes to make slight contact with Huang Zhenghao's gaze, and quickly lowered his eyes.

Huang Zhenghao's eyes were red, he took a few deep breaths to regulate his emotions, and then asked word by word: "You want to resign?"

They haven't been together for a long time, but Huang Zhenghao understands Qin Xu's temper, and he has made up his mind about something, and he never hesitates to waver.

At the beginning, when Huang Zhenghao was teaching him, he invested more energy and time, also because he felt from this young man who had just left the police academy that he joined this industry not for an iron job, but because he had a persistent energy and persistent belief in his heart.

Even if this job kills his enthusiasm, it shouldn't be quitting now.

Qin Xu's use of the word "want" is enough to show that he has made a decision, rather than asking for the opinions of others.

"Yes. Qin Xu opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, only nodded and replied briefly.

"What happened?" asked Huang Zhenghao with great certainty.

With his understanding of Qin Xu, if it weren't for something special and extremely serious happening, it would be impossible for him to make this decision.

The bits and pieces of daily getting along, Qin Xu's enthusiasm for this job is not half faked.

Huang Zhenghao even wondered in his heart if there was a superior who bypassed him and assigned this kid some kind of special task alone.

"......" How does Qin Xu explain it?

He had to help Old Master Qin, and for this he could only live up to the expectations of another master.

Huang Zhenghao looked at Qin Xu, he didn't answer for a long time, his expression had already told him that this kid had something unspeakable.

"Go!" Huang Zhenghao picked up his empty water glass and turned his back to leave. He can talk to Qin Xu about many precautions in work and life on weekdays, but at this moment, he seems to have a lot of gold in his mouth, and he can't say anything.

"Master!" Qin Xu couldn't help but shout.

Huang Zhenghao paused.

"Take care!" Qin Xu's voice was deep and he said stiffly.

Huang Zhenghao gritted his teeth, took two steps forward, but stopped again, and said without looking back: "You, you have to be careful yourself, go out and wander, not to be in the bureau, everything is considered." ”

With that, he never looked back, turned and left the office, listening to his footsteps, which seemed to be going upstairs.

Qin Xu sat in Huang Zhenghao's position for almost five minutes before he stood up, picked up the mop and bucket in the corner, and wiped the water stains on the ground.

After reorganizing Huang Zhenghao's table, Qin Xu returned to his seat.

He was cautious and lenient, rarely had a gloomy and low mood, and even if his academic performance in school was at the top of the class, he never had a time when he was discouraged, and he still participated in training with high spirits every day.

He touched the silver badge on his police hat, and the well-memorized oath came to his mind.

"The national flag is on it, and the words and deeds of the police will never defile the golden shield.

The Constitution is above, and the slightest thought of the police will never violate the dignity of the law.

The people are on top, and the police will never fail to live up to the people's expectations throughout their lives.

I swear in front of the flag and emblem of the Republic:

For the prosperity of the country and the tranquility of the people, the Chinese police wage an endless struggle against all kinds of criminal activities until the last drop of blood is shed.

For the sake of the sacred mission, for the sake of the sacrificed comrades-in-arms, the Chinese police, would rather be poor, never be greedy, take my integrity, guard disputes, serve as a police officer for one day, and be honest for life. ”

The original oath is vivid and unforgettable, and he has never forgotten it.

Qin Xu clenched the brim of his hat and slowly swept away the hesitation and struggle in his heart.

A police officer for one day, a police officer for life.

Even after leaving, glory and faith still burned in his chest, illuminating the way forward.

Qin Xu pushed away the chair, picked up his backpack and the little hamster shivering on the table, and strode out.
