154. Induction party (9/20)
Onboarding Steve Rogers was no easy task, and Hank had to recover his identity and file first.
When Steve Rogers' personal message was submitted to the VA (Department of Veterans Affairs), the staff on the scene were simply scared!
The resurrection of war heroes who heroically "sacrificed" 70 years ago and only appeared in comics and stories is simply magical!
At first, the staff of the VA department thought it was just a farce, and it wasn't until Steve Rogers went to the scene himself that they believed that the war hero had really come back from the dead and returned to modern society.
After a series of complex psychological evaluations and physical tests, the VA and NYPD finally completed the placement of Steve Rogers, and the American team became a glorious New York police officer, attached to the 109th Precinct of Brooklyn, under Goofy.
In recognition of Steve's outstanding contributions on the battlefield, the VA department gave him a generous sum of money, which included: a retirement pension, a war grant, and a bonus for valor.
The most ridiculous thing is that because Steve Rogers was judged to have died a heroic death, he still has a death benefit in his account. Now although Steve has come back alive, the money has also been applied for and cannot be withdrawn, so Steve himself received his own death benefit.
With these grants, Steve was able to live in Brooklyn without any problems, and although the money was not enough for him to buy a house, it was more than enough to rent a bachelor apartment across from the 109 police station.
In the next few days, the news of Steve Rodgers' entry into the NYPD has been frequently reported, and the 109th subdivision has become a major attraction in Brooklyn because of this incident, and many fans and admirers of the American team have come to see Steve's demeanor.
And this news also gave a shot in the arm to the stormy New York, and gave the general public more trust in the NYPD.
Despite the recent bad news in New York, there is always good news.
A week later.
Steve Rogers' induction party went off without a hitch at his bachelorette apartment.
The police officers of the 109 sub-bureau were all present, and everyone couldn't wait to welcome this promising new colleague.
Goofy carried a bottle of red wine and brought Jessie and Carrie to help as soon as possible. Steve wasn't familiar with most of the tools of this era, and he had to have someone by his side to guide him.
Knocking on the door and coming in, Goofy hands Steve an old-fashioned AT&T phone.
"It's the simplest phone I've ever found on the market, and if you can't play with it, then I don't have anything else to do......," Goofy said, with a headache.
Today's mobile phones have begun to fully enter the intelligent era, and the multi-functional smartphone is a nightmare for Steve, in front of the colorful screen, Steve can not even make a call.
"Oh, thank you, Officer Goofy." Steve took the phone with a smile, then pointed to the bathroom, "By the way, there's something in the bathroom that keeps calling, can you help me take a look?" ”
"I'll take a look." Goofy walked to the bathroom, and then felt only a gust of hot air hit his face.
Pushing the door in, I saw Steve turn on all the bath bombs, making the bathroom hot like an oven, and the overheated temperature made the room thermostat sound an alarm, which is what Steve said "always called".
"Hey, Steve, you're mistaken, these are bath bombs, they're used to keep you warm in the shower, not lights, and you can't keep them on." Goofy frowned.
"Really?" Steve looked embarrassed, "I also said why these light bulbs are not burning properly, it turns out that they are not light bulbs at all." Oh, by the way, come and help me explain the TV, I can only find its switch at the moment, and I can't change the channel if I want to. ”
"Isn't it, Steve?" Gao Fei couldn't help but laugh, "You shouldn't just watch one channel this week, right?" Please, call me if you have any questions! ”
"I'd like to ...... too," Steve pointed to the smartphone on the table, "but I wouldn't use this phone at all, otherwise why would I ask you to bring me a phone with the simplest features?" ”
Goofy was speechless.
Steve's point makes sense.
Goofy begins to instruct Steve on the use of various household appliances, while Carrie and Jessy are in charge of setting up the living room.
About half an hour later, the officers of the 109th Precinct arrived at Steve's house one after another.
Even Superintendent Schneider, who was promoted at the beginning of the year, took a leave of absence to attend the induction party, and he didn't want to miss the opportunity to get to know the American team.
Everyone sat around the living room and raised their drinks and drinks in their hands.
Sheriff Hank Lang said, "Let's welcome Steve Rogers to Precinct 109. ”
The police officers echoed the chorus and sent their best wishes to their new colleagues.
Superintendent Schneider was very enthusiastic: "Captain, I've been your idol since I was a child, I remember the first comic book I read was "Captain America", and I cried all day when I saw you crashing into an iceberg to save the people of New York......"
Steve was embarrassed: "Really? To be honest, I didn't even expect my story to be made into a comic. ”
"By the way, Captain, have you been to the Captain America Memorial? It's just five blocks away, so if you haven't been, we'll be able to check it out in a moment. Anna said with a smile.
Steve smiled and shook his head: "I haven't been there, but Officer Goofy gave me a brochure for the memorial, and I've read the brochure, and the memorial is pretty good." ”
Sam said with emotion: "It's like a dream, our police department actually has two superheroes, Officer Goofy and Captain America...... Now I think which criminal would dare to do something wrong in Brooklyn? I think only people who are sick or have a dead heart would do that. ”
Superintendent Schneider nodded: "Yes, the law and order in Brooklyn will definitely become a benchmark for the whole of New York." However, since the captain joined the 109 sub-bureau, our sub-bureau has become the target of public criticism, and everyone says that the 109 sub-bureau is too greedy, and it is not enough to have a high flyer, so he actually recruited the captain. The captain should be left to Manhattan, where police are severely starved. ”
Gao Fei spread his hands and smiled: "What's the matter?" I recruited someone by skill, and I didn't cheat and rob it? Isn't that right, Officer Steve? ”
Steve smiled and nodded: "Yes, I volunteered to join the 109th Precinct, after all, I am a native of Brooklyn, and Manhattan is too far away." ”
Superintendent Schneider said with a wry smile: "But now there are no more police officers in the police stations in Manhattan, and many police stations even have only one police chief left...... It's a tough thing to do. ”
Gao Fei smiled: "Don't panic, it's a big deal to second us over when the time comes, anyway, as long as my and Steve's names are hung in Brooklyn, Brooklyn will be able to live for a long time, and we don't have to worry too much." ”
Superintendent Schneider smiled slyly: "I'm just waiting for your words." ”
