Chapter 425: Zhao Lian's Evaluation
"Now, you get it, right?"
Zhao Lian's gaze gradually sharpened, "The authorities in reality are by no means like the depictions in some movies and novels, people are superficial, the corpses are vegetarian, they don't do anything, they drag their feet all day long, and they can only rely on some lonely heroes to solve the problem single-handedly - these are all made up, and there has never been a war that can be won by one person."
"When you think that 'everyone is drunk and I am sober', you don't want to believe us, and you have to go to the soup with Hong Lei, on all fronts, many soldiers who are not inferior to you are also braving fierce artillery fire, paying the greatest sacrifices, and even bearing greater pressure and grievances than you, fighting tenaciously to defend our common home and bottom line.
"So, Chu Ge, don't be complacent with a little credit, and don't feel that you have been greatly wronged by some things, you still have to have a correct treatment about the whole thing and your attitude towards the authorities!"
"Hehe, I know, Brother Zhao, don't pretend, are you tired of talking all day long? Which of us is with whom, it's a friendship of stabbing the enemy's ass together. β
Chu Ge said with a hippie smile, "You just want me to remember the procedures and discipline, and stop making the mistake of personal heroism, okay, I remember, I really don't want to do it a second time!" Having said that, your methods are really cunning enough, and you actually used someone else's arrest warrant to put Zhao Jinhu together, and he was so angry that he screamed, and it was funny when he thought about it.
"He's right, you do this, it doesn't seem to be in line with the procedure, and I are half a catty, you don't laugh at fifty steps and a hundred steps, no, no, no, I'm not laughing at you, but I appreciate you very much, everyone is a fellow believer, and they are in a hurry, and they are improvised, oops, this boss will definitely be forgiven!"
"No, you're wrong, I'm not a 'fellow believer' with you, I did seriously violate the procedure in the matter of arresting Zhao Jinhu, even if the boss can be accommodating, I will never forgive myself."
Zhao Lian's face suddenly changed, and he returned to the robot-like iron-faced selflessness when Chu Ge first saw him, and he said coldly, "After making such a serious mistake, I, the 'action team leader', I'm afraid it will also come to an end, and when this matter is over, I will personally report to ask for sanctions from above, and I will never condone myself to cross the thunder pool by half a step!" β
"Heyβ"
Chu Ge was dumbfounded and stammered, "Do you want to be so serious, you just want to save me, and besides, don't let Zhao Jinhu, a big moth, run away, you can't even play such a trick?" β
"If it's you, of course you can play it, because you are only a member of the association, not a real member of the authorities, strictly speaking, you are still a small ordinary person, the law does not prohibit it, and you have no choice."
Zhao Lian said with a straight face, "But I am not only a person in the authorities, but also above many powerful units, a member of the 'organ', naturally I can't have the same requirements as the common people."
"Otherwise, in order to arrest Zhao Jinhu today, I can use the solemn and sacred arrest warrant covered with the big red seal of the 'organ' as straw paper and props, tearing apart the procedures condensed by countless martyrs with blood and tears, tomorrow I can naturally continue to break through the defense line of rules and regulations for other purposes, and in the end, these rules and regulations, these strict procedures, have been broken through by me, what's the point?
"You know, power itself alone has the magic of life and death, fortunately, in the past when there was no aura, the controllers and executors of power were still ordinary people, and they could also be the objects of power management, and those ordinary people were hurt or even killed, in other words, public anger is difficult to offend, and power still has checks and balances.
In addition to power, we ourselves have the ability to open mountains and split rocks, call for wind and rain, and how can ordinary people resist such dual forces? Even if it provokes their people, so what?
"Because of this, those of us who control and execute the power with superpowers, we should be strict with ourselves with the highest standards, and we must take the trouble to lock the power and superpowers in a cage with the most perfect procedures, otherwise, our desires and ambitions will expand uncontrollably, grow, and eat us, and eventually turn us into monsters beyond recognition, maggots, rats, and even tigers, just like Jin Zhenhai and Zhao Jinhu!"
"Wow......"
Chu Ge looked at Zhao Lian with great admiration, feeling that the gap between himself and other people's ideological realms was too big.
"Brother Zhao, I thought that you would be the same as me after staying in the lawless land on the border for so long, torn between bandits, rebels and all kinds of monsters!"
Chu Ge exclaimed, "You shouldn't be in the Land of Lawlessness, it's the same ...... One board and one eye, iron-faced and selfless, right? β
"The Land of Lawlessness, unlike Lingshan, many times, we have to be more flexible."
Zhao Lian frowned and said, "But because of this, in our hearts, we must abide by the sacred law and the final bottom line, and remember what kind of person we are."
"Brother Chu, if one day, you also have the opportunity to go to the land of lawlessness, or even have to go there alone, alone, if you are alone, remember my words - those who have walked on the edge of the abyss for a long time and gazed at the abyss will eventually be polluted and swallowed by the abyss, don't be disgusted when you hear the words 'procedure' and 'rules', you must know that absolute freedom is equal to complete collapse, and it is 'procedures' and 'rules' that can shape and maintain, the true self."
Chu Ge pondered Zhao Lian's words.
Looking at Zhao Lian's familiar and unfamiliar face, he couldn't help but say, "Brother Zhao, your current temperament has become completely different from just now, how do I feel that you are like a dual personality?" β
"Perhaps, a little."
Zhao Lian's indifferent and ruthless face suddenly bloomed with a chic smile, "People like me who are torn between lawless lands and inland, special investigation bureaus and agencies, monsters, awakened people, and ordinary people, if they don't have a little dual personality, they probably won't be able to survive for a day." β
"Brother Zhao, I have one last question."
Chu Ge stared at Zhao Lian, wondering, "You, what do you think of everything I did today, do you think that my performance is very bad, it is purely adding to the chaos, don't hide it, you tell the truth, I want to hear your true evaluation of me, whether it's good or bad, I'm quite psychologically tolerant." β
"Wellβ"
Zhao Lian shrugged his shoulders, pondered for a moment, and said, "You didn't listen to the command and ran away from the SUV, I was really angry that I screamed in my heart, and scolded you for being a bloody dog, I feel like you are a stupid fork who doesn't know anything, an idiot who doesn't know the height of the sky, give a little sunshine and it will be brilliant, I don't know who my surname is, a few pounds and a few taels, and I can't even be a good mascot, I'm a second-year teenager who has watched too many movies and thinks he's a savior, but in fact it's nothing......"
"Brother Zhao, there is no need to talk about these details."
Chu Ge said, "You should hurry up and draw conclusions." β
"Jumping to conclusions?"
Zhao Lian looked at Chu Ge, "Yes, although you caught the big fish of Zhao Jinhu by mistake in the end, it can't hide your naΓ―ve thoughts and clumsy performance in action, by the standard of a city hero and super soldier, you are adding to the chaos." β
Chu Ge: "......"
"Butβ"
Zhao Lian's expression and gaze suddenly softened, he stretched out his hand on Chu Ge's shoulder, patted it lightly, and said with a smile, "If you were still selling wontons and repairing excavators half a year ago, full of enthusiasm and justice, and the standards of an ordinary earth boy, your performance has already broken through the sky." β
"Yes, huh?"
Chu Ge was amused by Zhao Lian's 180-degree turn, and the snot bubbles squirted out again, "That is to say, although my starting point is a little lower, I actually have a lot of potential, right?" β
"It's a must, it's super potential."
Zhao Lian said, "Come on, I'm optimistic about you!" β
"Really?"
Chu Ge's snot bubbles became bigger and bigger, thinking back to Zhao Lian's majesty when he appeared just now, and when he was "in the name of the Earth Alliance's Supreme Discipline Purging Committee", Zhao Jinhu's face was as frightened as earth, and he couldn't help but think about it, "That is to say, in the future, I will have a chance to become a member of the 'agency' like Brother Zhao?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Zhao Lian coughed a few times, took a deep breath, and said earnestly, "Believe me, Chu Ge, don't join the 'organ', your stage should be in a wider distance, the small pond of 'organ' is not suitable for you, barely stuffing it will only waste your talent, and it will not be good for everyone, really." β
