Chapter 217: Damn the lucky Oriental
Despite the changes in the patrol's equipment and morale, Fabino still had a hard time believing that the law and order situation in the southeastern city had really improved.
However, when he walked out on the street, all the passers-by, whether men, women, or children, were doing or planning to do something, and when they saw him and the patrol around him, they all stopped, spoke, and greeted Fabino and Zhang Heng and others in different accents.
When an old man selling fish also stopped in front of Fabino and greeted Fabino with a blank face, the sense of surprise in Mr. Assessor's heart finally climbed to the top, "Okay, what the hell is going on?" Are they trying to make us let our guard down and then assassinate us? ”
"No, they just want to say hello, out of politeness." Zhang Hengdao.
"That's strange," Fabino touched his chin, "if I'm not mistaken, the people of this place have a bad attitude towards people from outside, and they always feel that people from outside only want to take advantage of them, and although the city does take advantage of them, I believe they are more willing to spit than greet us when they see us." ”
"Prejudice is hard to change for a while, but at least they're working on it now, and saying hello anyway is a good start, isn't it?"
"Hah, I think we'll know the answer soon." Fabino, however, was noncommittal.
Mr. Assessor has an instinctive suspicion of everything in the southeast city, he always feels that what he sees now is only an illusion on the surface, but Fabino also firmly believes that as long as his eyes are bright enough, he can always find the truth from it, although he doesn't know how Zhang Heng managed to let the natives of the southeast city in front of him cooperate with him and build the current harmonious scene together, but the southeast city is so big, Fabino doesn't believe that Zhang Heng can take care of every corner.
However, half a day later, Fabino, whose eyes widened, not only did not find the basis for Zhang Heng's actions, but found more signs that the security in the southeast city was indeed improving.
Although the place is still poor and dirty, at least in terms of the streets, there is a lot less criminal activity and some order has been restored, especially where the patrols go, which are quite a deterrent to criminals.
And it can also be seen from the records handed over to him by Aris that the cases cracked by the patrol team, as well as the number of criminals arrested, have increased amazingly, this is not only a breakthrough from zero to one, the number of cases solved in the southeast city is already the first in all regions, of course, considering the special environment here in the southeast city, the number of criminals arrested by the patrol team is still a drop in the bucket compared with the number of criminals in the entire criminal group.
But you must know that the patrol team plus Zhang Heng is only thirteen people, which is the smallest number of people in all areas, and they are responsible for the largest area and the most complicated block, even if he is as picky as Fabino, he found that he can't seem to find a reason not to give Zhang Heng and others high marks in this assessment and inspection.
…………
The changes in the patrol and this place are obvious to all, anyone who is not blind can see it, and I believe it all started with the arrival of the former gladiator champion named Zhang Heng......
The next morning, Fabino's assessment report appeared in Commod's hand, and after the young emperor read it word by word, he put down the report and asked Clinder, who was on the side, "What do you think?" ”
Although he tried to maintain the majesty of the emperor, the excitement revealed in it betrayed his current thoughts.
Clint bowed, "It seems that our gladiatorial champion is not only extraordinary, he has also proved that he can indeed solve problems for Your Majesty, I think Your Majesty can consider recruiting him to do things by his side, which shows that Your Majesty's vision of people is very accurate." ”
"I knew it." Commodus slapped the table, "I knew he was the one I was looking for!" ”
There was a hint of jealousy in Klind's eyes, but he hid it well, and when Commodus looked at him again, his face was full of relief, as if he had found a companion to work with.
"The security problem in the southeast city has plagued successive emperors for a long time, and even my father has not been able to solve it, but he has done everything that his predecessors have not been able to do, and it only took two months, without applying for funding, and without applying for additional manpower......" Kang Mao said excitedly.
"Yes, it is very rare to be single-handed, brave and resourceful." Clinder did not hesitate to praise him.
"Don't raise him too high," Commodus smiled when he heard this, "Forget it alone, the news of the arrival of a thousand Praetorian Guards in the southeast city was released by you, without this news, he can't bluff those difficult bones in the southeast city, and I heard that you also participated in a lot of the whole plan, but you didn't say a word." ”
"That's probably what I like most about you, Clinder," the young Emperor patted his advisor on the shoulder, "a lot of people are blinded by power, they were good people before they came into contact with power, they wanted to do something good for the people, but gradually, the mentality changed, they wanted more, more...... Until my heart was occupied by jealousy, I saw many such people around my father, but I am sure that you are not such a person, and the empire is lucky to have such an upright and humble person as you. ”
"Your Majesty's compliments have terrified my heart, and I am just fulfilling the vow I made when I first met you, so that I can be another pair of eyes of Your Majesty to help you see more of the truth."
"Yes, you are my eyes, Otlus is my hand, and Zhang Heng, let me see what I can get from him." Commodus rubbed his hands excitedly as he spoke, "Go ahead, go and bring him to me." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Clinder bowed, turned and exited Commodus's study.
And when he came to the corridor, the smile on his face disappeared, although Zhang Heng was now his political ally, but Clint was still very uncomfortable when he heard Commoder praise a person like this.
He knew Commodore too well, and when Zhang Heng proposed to let him participate in the law and order restoration plan in the southeast city, and even led it, although Clinder agreed, he did not adopt Zhang Heng's original plan, but instead took himself out of it, and only revealed a little rumor on the side of the Senate.
He believed that Commodus would see his role in this, and at the same time cement his image of a modest, unsolicited image, which Clinder knew was the key to his stable position with Commodus, and that was exactly what happened.
But compared to the part that Zhang Heng got from it, Clinder is still suspected of making wedding clothes for others, but now he can't care so much, the competition between him and Aoterus has become more and more intense, and Commodus is obviously more inclined to Aotrus, bringing Zhang Heng closer Even if he can't solve Aotrus, at least he can distract Commodus and usher in more preparation time for himself.
"Damn, lucky Oriental." Clinder muttered under his breath and left the palace.
