Chapter 24 Expatriation

Paul hung up Big Jim's phone for the sixth time, and sat in the duty room haggard, his mind in confusion.

It's almost time to go to work.

Linda was the first to come to the police station with breakfast, went to the duty room and put breakfast on the table, and when she saw Paul so haggard, she couldn't help laughing: "Now you know what it's like to be on the night shift, right?" ”

She was only sick of Paul, who was not used to night shifts, so she was so tired.

Paul forced a smile, nodded, took a loaf of bread from the bag and nibbled on it, "Thank you." ”

"You need to rest." Linda said, "You go home from work now to rest, and I'll talk to Duke." ”

Paul stood up, grabbed his hat and walked out, walked a few steps, paused, hesitated, and said, "Linda, I was sorting through the archives last night and found that one file was empty. ”

"Oh?" Linda was stunned: "Empty? Maybe Duke took it. I remember the other day Duke took Junier's file, was it? ”

"Duke took it?" Paul said, "Shouldn't this file be sealed?" ”

Linda shrugged: "I said that I would take it back to Chang to study." ”

"Constant?"

Paul perked up: "You mean Duke handed over the file to Chang?" ”

Linda nodded: "There is a record, didn't you see it?" ”

She pointed to the duty notebook on the desk in the duty room.

Paul opened his mouth, and suddenly felt a slight pain in Keel's tip.

He hurriedly said goodbye to Linda, walked out of the police station with three steps and two feet, and Linda felt that he was a little strange, and muttered: "Paul seems to be a little wrong today..."

"Who's wrong?" Duke walked in at this point.

"Oh, it's Paul." Linda said: "He was on duty last night and looked tired. ”

"He? Duty? Duke looked back at the gate of the police station and vaguely saw Paul getting into the car: "Did he take the wrong medicine?" ”

"God knows." Linda shrugged.

At this time, Chang Wei and Freddy went to the police station one after another to check in.

Hearing that Paul was on duty last night, even Chang Wei was surprised: "If Freddie takes the initiative to be on duty, I still believe it, Paul?" He? ”

Freddie hurriedly said, "No, I don't want to be on the night shift." ”

"I didn't let you work the night shift." Linda gave him a blank look: "Paul may have too much energy." ”

Just kidding.

It is said that Paul left the police station and drove slowly down the street. Seeing Chang Wei's car passing by, he stepped on the accelerator suddenly.

The phone rang again. Paul looked at it, bared his teeth, removed one hand from the steering wheel, and answered the phone.

"Paul, this is the seventh time I've called you."

Big Jim's suppressed anger voice came out of his phone: "What do I want?" If you can't get Junior's file, I can't help you. ”

"Jim, I know you need Junior's file." Paul laughed and said, "If you're kind to me, I think I'll be quicker." ”

Big Jim was silent for a moment, his voice softening, "We're mutually beneficial, Paul. ”

"So we're equal." Paul said, "I've racked my brains for this file, and you don't have the right to be on top. ”

"Well, I apologize." Big Jim can bend and stretch, he said, "What about the file?" ”

"Junior's file is not in the police station." "Linda told me that Duke took the file the other day and gave it to Chang. ”

Big Jim, who was having breakfast at home at this time, listened to Paul's words on the phone, took the cup in his hand, and scolded Duke in his heart.

It was clear that Duke was on his guard.

Files are kept in the police station, which is very safe for most people. But for Big Jim, the MP, it was easier to get his hands on.

Duke asked him to work together to promote Chang Wei's ascension, so handing over the file to Chang Wei for safekeeping was an insurance.

After a moment of silence, Big Jim said, "Is it possible to get the file from Chang Wei?" ”

"I don't know." Paul's voice rang out: "I am on my way to Chang Wei's house. He's gone to work now, not home. ”

Big Jim perked up: "I'll wait for you in the tavern." ”

Hanging up the phone, Big Jim sighed and looked up at Junil, who was sitting across the table, biting on bread like a robot, and the fire in his heart couldn't help but bubble up.

"It's all you!"

Chang Wei's face seemed to appear in front of him: "Wait, Chang Wei, soon I will let you taste my methods." ”

Paul's car creaked to a halt in front of Chang Wei's house, and Paul got out of the car. Just as Joe next door came out. Joe goes to school.

"Hey, officer."

Joe said hello.

Paul's heart tightened: "Joe, are you going to school?" ”

"Yes." Joe nodded, "Is there something wrong with you?" ”

"Uh... Often, I forgot to take a document, so I helped him bring it over. Paul lied.

Qiao did not doubt him, and said, "Then you are busy, I went to school." ”

It wasn't until Joe walked to the bus stop that Paul was relieved that he had even wanted to shoot Joe with a gun. This violent mood made him feel a little incredible.

Looking left and right, seeing that there was no one around, Paul climbed over the fence of Chang Wei's courtyard, ran to the door in a few steps, saw that the door was locked, and went around the window next to him and groped for a while, click, the window opened, and Paul quickly climbed in.

Chang Wei went to the police station to check in and show up, and then, as usual, planned to go out with Linda to patrol the street first, but was stopped by Duke.

"Often, come to my office."

Chang Wei motioned to Linda to wait a moment, and went to Duke's office.

"Sit."

Duke asked him to sit down.

Then he said, "Another batch of propane is coming in today." As before, you and Linda are escorted, and it is forbidden for idle people to approach. ”

Chang Wei nodded: "Understood." ”

"Hmm." "There's one more thing," Duke said. You know that our Mill Town is built on Lake Victoria, but the Mill Town is not the only one that relies on Lake Victoria. We are in the northeast of the lake, and there is a lakeside town in the southeast. ”

"Lakeside?" Chang Wei said: "Is there something going on over there?" ”

Duke shook his head, then nodded again: "The Lake Victoria Tourism Festival, which is held in Lakeside Town every spring and summer, is about to be held. ”

"Lake Victoria Tourism Festival?" Chang Wei was slightly curious.

"That's right." Speaking of this, Duke obviously showed a little resentment: "Their geographical location and environment are much superior to ours. So they have been successful every time they have held a tourism festival, whereas we have tried to do it once before, and what we got was failure. ”

"So?"

"Not so." "You know that a small town like ours has a thin police force. The same goes for Lakeside Town. The festival is crowded with people, and they need more police to maintain order. So at this time of year, the Lakeside Police Department comes to us for help. ”
