Chapter 1 Awards

Christmas passed, but all the LAPD officers were in no mood to relax on the holiday, when a storm came over the weekend and Chekov had created an unprecedentedly good environment for all of them in front of the media, and some could even hear thunder and raindrops lapping on the window lattice.

Remember that test?

All the police officers who participated in the assessment on Christmas Eve now think back that there is something wrong with that assessment, the police officers of the police station in the wandering area almost the day after the end of the assessment saw the sad Preston moving things out of the office, and inquired about the gossip news from the surroundings to know that the little boss of the wandering area was taken off his hat and directly assigned to the evidence warehouse of the General Administration as the director, and he has to deal with the number of the warehouse all his life!

Reason?

Based on the crime rate of the wandering area this year by the weekend and Chekov, there is no need for any reason to take off Preston's hat, and with Chekov's fight in front of the police station, it is already Matthew's mercy not to fire him directly.

Immediately afterwards, the General Administration issued four dismissal orders in a row, and the four-person group led by Sha Zhanwood in the wandering area was collectively expelled, this time Matthew directly killed him, and these guys who had just left the hospital not long ago got the news of losing their jobs in the morning, and were all taken away by the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the afternoon, and no one knows when they came out......

As a result, some people began to notice that something was wrong.

What time is it?

The situation is very good!

The media, which has always liked to be the enemy of the Los Angeles Police Department, all began to sing praises, and after the video of the hostage rescue was uploaded to the Internet by someone who did not know who uploaded it to the Internet, the number of downloads exceeded one million, and major news websites began to do special features for the weekend and Chekov, and even CNN was ready to conduct an exclusive interview. The wandering area even blasted out all the generals and soldiers? Isn't that a slap in the face?

The police officers under their hands began to put themselves in danger, the policemen who did good things began to understand the development trend, and the innocent policemen didn't care who was fired and who was going to take the position, but this was just the beginning.

The day after the end of the examination, the head of the financial department of the police headquarters announced his early retirement. The staff in charge of information management in the computer department was fired, and in the blink of an eye, a major earthquake began to shake wildly, and people were immediately panicked.

People who don't understand why all this is happening begin to spread a rumor at the bottom that Matthew, the big boss, has gone crazy, saying that he has burst into unprecedented anger because his daughter was held hostage. In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the future director of the Los Angeles Police Department and the current deputy chief of the police department is taking advantage of this good situation to purge the entire police department, and it is much better to bear the wind and rain at the best time and let praise and curse Qi Fei than to withstand the accusations of public opinion from all sides under huge pressure.

Of course, this world has always been a few joys and a few sorrows, and the aftermath of this shock has not yet passed. On Christmas Day, Matthew held an award ceremony at the police headquarters, which was also a celebration of the successive major cases solved this year.

In the auditorium of the Los Angeles Police Department, he was a little uncomfortable standing in the crowd on the weekend wearing a police uniform and wearing gauze on his right hand, and the biggest scene he had ever experienced in two lifetimes was just a salary increase ceremony in the small town of Montek, and it was the first time that such a thing was awarded, so he looked a little nervous.

As for Chekov, he seems to be particularly accustomed to such scenes. When the straight police uniform is worn on the body, the original military temperament makes it more solemn. The upright posture and heroic state are also standing out in the crowd, except for being like a stone statue at all, there is basically nothing wrong with it, which is like just coming out of the hospital for two days on the weekend, and you can see the bloodless face of the first recovery from serious injuries from afar.

"Why are you here?"

Matthew took time out of the crowd and saw that Weekend and Chekov were dodging and thinking of themselves as posing. immediately showed a dissatisfied look: "Why are you putting on such a face?" Have you ever seen a Los Angeles cop with your expression when awarding a medal? ”

"I'm not just giving you a ribbon, it's a medal of valor!"

"Hey!"

In the California police system, the meaning of the ribbon and the medal is not the same, the ribbon is something that can be obtained when a big event comes, such as the 1984 Summer Olympics ribbon is specially awarded to the police who have made contributions; The 1987 Papal Visit Ribbon was likewise awarded to the police in charge of guarding; There are also reserve police sashes. This thing can be obtained after 4,000 hours of work......

But the medal is completely different!

Community Policing Medals, Interpersonal Relationship Medals, Life-Saving Medals, Police Star Medals, especially the Medal of Courage, the Medal of Freedom and the Medal of Hero, all of them have to be exchanged for your life, and you have to be recognized by all walks of life and the police at all levels that you are worth the exchange, thinking that you have indeed made significant contributions to society and the police department.

Seeing that he didn't talk much with Chekov on the weekend, Matthew changed the topic, and it was not good to keep a black face on this happy day: "Zhou, because you were injured a few days ago and failed to catch up with the assessment, I discussed it with the relevant personnel of the training base, and when you return to the bureau after you are injured, a temporary license for a police gun will be issued first, but this does not mean that you don't need to take the exam, understand?" ”

Sensing Matthew's determination, he nodded, and it seemed that he couldn't avoid this matter, and Matthew was planning to carry out a complete overhaul of the Los Angeles Police Department, and to kick out all those who were not qualified or did not qualify as a police officer.

“SIR。” After chatting about more important things, he opened his mouth on the weekend: "I know that Ted has also been discharged from the hospital, can he ......"

"I can't."

Matthew's answer was so decisive that he had already published his answer and turned away before he had asked any questions over the weekend.

Chekov watched Matthew turn away, walked to the side and whispered, "Translate." ”

"Your father-in-law is going to make us a police star." The weekend didn't seem so happy.

"What?" Chekov couldn't believe what he was hearing, and asked again: "I mean, what does your topic just have to do with this?" ”

"Ted is not a bone to gnaw on, Matthew doesn't want us to be involved in this matter, I guess right, the video of us saving Catherine is probably also leaked from the gap between his fingers and onto the Internet. Even if it wasn't him, he would definitely have his tacit approval, which would set off a second wave of public opinion. Look around......" said Chekov with his chin in his eyes: "The police station was full of journalists at the award ceremony, which is obviously a signboard......"

When he is not a police star, he doesn't care too much about the weekend, and it's useless to care, he has no right to speak at all. Matthew didn't discuss it with him at all after he had this initiative, and he even finished sending people to clean up the inside of the police station, which was not the focus of the weekend, the point was that he saw a person, a guy he hadn't seen in a long time - Quinn!

"Why is he here?"

When this question was asked, he had already figured it out, whether these big cases this year were solved by Adam or seconded to the homicide department, in short. All cases are under the name of the Homicide Section, and Quinn is the head of the Homicide Section anyway, so it makes sense that he appears here...... However, wasn't Matthew supposed to take out Quinn the second after dealing with Preston?

"Why can't he be here? I met him during the assessment, and I heard that his comprehensive scores in the written test and shooting were all A, not to mention that the homicide department has the highest overall crime solving rate this year......"

Isn't it the highest, it doesn't matter who solved the case. The solvable rate is from the homicide department, and Quinn is the boss of the homicide department. If you count the assessment results and the crime solving rate, Matthew can't touch him.

On the weekend, when Chekov still didn't understand the situation, he hurriedly instructed: "Stay away from Quinn, when I'm not by your side, don't say a word to him, don't even make eye contact, lest this guy bite indiscriminately." ”

"I don't care about Quinn......" Chekov didn't wait to finish. Weekend interrupted him very formally: "You'd better care about it, Quinn and I are mortal enemies, and the entire police department knows that you and I have exchanged lives, do you think Quinn will be so willing to withdraw when he sees his career being squeezed into a corner?" If only he could endure it. Adam wouldn't have been squeezed out in the first place. At his level, he knew that Matthew was going to do something and couldn't stop it, but if he easily pitted us standing in the queue of deputy directors, he still could do it, and he didn't make a move because Adam's matter involved both of us on the cusp, and now, no one knows what will happen in the future......"

"Everyone."

During the weekend when he was talking to Chekov, Matthew appeared on the stage, and at that moment, the whole auditorium fell silent, and when the weekend's eyes were drawn to it, he saw the flag of the United States behind Matthew and the oil painting of the father of the United States.

Quinn, on the other hand, was cautiously in the auditorium, and even his gaze was very restrained.

Matthew stood gracefully under the huge police badge and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am honored to look back on the achievements of this year, this year, we have endured a lot, from the pressure of public opinion, public distrust, media doubts and the emergence of bizarre cases. If I were a woman, I'm afraid I wouldn't be standing here today, crying and throwing myself into my husband's arms to complain about the unfairness of the world when these pressures arise. ”

There was a friendly laugh from the audience, even if the joke wasn't so ridiculous, but polite laughter still appeared.

Then Matthew began to become warmer: "But I'm a man, not only me, most of the fandom in the police department are men, we have to resist this pressure, even if we have colleagues who died in the arrest of drug traffickers during the year, even if those perverts are provoking the police department, we have to stand up straight in front of the camera, straighten up in the shouting and scolding, and in distrust, take our lives to make due dedication and sacrifice for every legal resident of Los Angeles." ”

"What I'm saying is that I didn't do all of the above......"

This time, most of the people in the audience really laughed, at least the deputy director was more honest.

"They were officers from all positions in the LAPD, and they were the ones who helped me straighten up in front of the cameras, because I knew that with them, we would always feel the glory of this moment!"

"Now, on behalf of the Los Angeles Police Department, allow me to posthumously award the Oscar Hero to Benjamin, an anti-crime and anti-narcotics police detective who died heroically in the hunt for a Los Angeles drug lord this year."

Wow!

The audience burst into applause, everyone applauded very seriously, and some even took off their hats to salute.

Matthew took the assistant's medal box on the stage and said: "I have to apologize to Benjamin Oscar and all those who should have been commended a long time ago, and I feel guilty that the leadership has not carried out this long-overdue recognition because of the endless cases that have emerged this year, and I will ask Benjamin Oscar's mother to receive the award on our behalf ...... heroes" (to be continued......
