On the afternoon of the 22nd, the venue on the top floor of the Tulun Port Police Station.

It is a rectangular space that can accommodate more than 300 people after breaking through the partition between the five offices.

The old building of the police station has limited conditions, and it is not easy to have such a space.

At this moment, the venue was full of people, the police officers of the police station sat at the front, the sergeants sat in the middle, and the senior officers of the first and second classes sat at the back.

All of them were dressed in neat uniforms, three different textures of sterling silver, brass, and tinplate, which hung neatly on the backrests of the seats in front of them. The top and bottom are clear and orderly.

At noon, the old man of Lenkeba, who was still taking pictures of the officials at the entrance of the city hall, was in a hurry at the moment, and he took a few reporters with great diligence and set up a heavy camera at the front of the venue.

'Bang', from time to time there was a loud bang, and white smoke rose.

Dressed in a formal suit, a bowler hat, and dressed like a gentleman, Director Stein stood in front of the camera, stretched out his right hand with a smile, and shook hands with the members of the special investigation team for the Mid-Autumn Bloody Case one by one for a group photo.

Director Stein decided that after the photos were washed out, he would open a memorial room on the first floor of the police building and hang them all on it for future generations to see.

The detectives of the investigation team, who usually dress up in casual clothes, are all wearing full uniforms at the moment, and everyone is grinning with their teeth.

The investigation of the Mid-Autumn Bloody Case has largely ended, and the special investigation team has been disbanded on the spot, but the members of the investigation team have benefited a lot.

Of course, not everyone is like Joe, who has been promoted to six levels in a row in one breath, and this kind of record is basically impossible to replicate.

But according to the letter of appointment sent by the city hall in the morning, except for Joe, all the inspectors in the investigation team were promoted by one level. Regardless of whether they have meritorious performance in this survey, they have all been promoted by one level anyway.

There are five detectives who were originally at the level of first-class police officers, but now they have silver stars on their shoulders and have become third-level police academies.

The original twelve second-class police captain-level detectives have all become first-class police officers at this moment.

There are also twelve detectives with the rank of third-class police captain, who have also been promoted to the first level, and their salaries and benefits have also increased a lot.

One by one, everyone shook hands with Director Stein, smiling like fools at the camera, accompanied by thick smoke, loud noises and flashes, leaving this memorable scene on the negative.

At the same time, they all glanced enviously at the large badge on Director Stein's chest.

It is the size of a small saucer, cast in pure gold, and in the center of it is enamelled with a large coat of arms in the shape of the coat of arms of the Tulun Port City Council. This heavy badge, combined with the red and blue ribbon tied in the third buttonhole, is enough to show the new identity of Director Xianstein.

Member of the Chairman of the Port Tulum City Council.

Stepping into the top elite circle of Tulun Port, there is nothing more proud of life.

Joe was the last to take a picture with Director Stein, grinning happily, his mouth wide enough to fit a big apple, more of a fool than the smiling detectives before.

The applause in the venue became louder and louder, and all the police officers and police officers present looked at Qiao with mixed feelings.

This lucky little one, tsk!

He has only been in the police department for less than two months, and he has already stepped into a position that many people have worked hard to reach in a lifetime. I heard that he is still a few days away from turning eighteen years old, and his future is immeasurable at such a young age.

After nearly an hour of busyness, after the 30 group photos were taken, the 30 members of the special investigation team gathered Director Stein in the center, and everyone took a group photo.

Finally, Joe and his fellow investigators sat in the front row of the room, and Director Stein stood on the podium at the front of the room, and sat in a high-pitched, almost dancing voice and giving an impassioned speech.

The nature of the Mid-Autumn Bloodshed was so bad.

How dangerous the members of the investigation team are.

How much the police department has contributed this time.

For the long-term peace and stability of Tulun Port, for the prosperity of Tulun Port, the police officers of the police station have paid a lot of sacrifices.

Director Stein was speechless, and praised the police station endlessly, and several text reporters on the side wrote down Director Stein's speech.

Subsequently, Director Stein waved his hand and officially announced that because of the excellent performance of the police department, the city hall of Port Tulun has passed a special budget, and all police officers in Port Tulun, from top to bottom, can receive a special allowance equivalent to one year's salary.

Thunderous applause.

Chief Stein's face flushed slightly, and he waved his hand again - because of the large number of police officers killed and injured in the police station this time, the city hall of Port Tulun passed an additional special budget, and the families of Ritu, Cecil, Leighton and Barrett of the family of the Port Tulun Committee of Seven also donated an additional amount of money to the police department.

The vast majority of this staggering amount of money was given as pensions to police officers who were killed and disabled in the Mid-Autumn Massacre. The remaining small part of the funds will be distributed to the police officers injured in the mid-autumn bloodbath and the subsequent investigation as a condolence.

Director Stein looked nonchalant and said the total amount of the money.

Applause rang out like a thunderstorm.

A number of police officers turned red with excitement and stood up and shouted loud applause, as they ...... the Hattu family Well, remove the Vetu family, this is a powerful family with old qualifications in Tulun Port, and this money is not money for them.

The police officers present kept Cecil, Layton, and Barrett firmly in mind.

Three new top families?

Well, the generosity is enough for the sacrificial, disabled guys, their families, and themselves to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives...... In the future, they must be respectful to their family's clansmen.

Immediately afterwards, Director Stein began to praise the members of the special investigation team one by one. Starting with Inspector Alan Irbi, Director Stein rambled and praised the efforts and contributions of many people in this special investigation.

Finally, Director Stein's face was flushed and his face was full of light, and he began to praise Joe.

His first achievement was the discovery of valuable top-secret information of vital interest to the Empire.

The second thing he did was to find the spies inside the customs in the port of Tulum and catch the invaders of the Highlands who directly launched the Mid-Autumn Bloody Attack.

He did three things - he found the plotters who colluded with the heretics in the port of Tulun, and he directly found the heretic's lair, captured the heretic, and rescued the innocent girls who were almost sacrificed to the demons.

These are Qiao's three most important contributions, in addition, he has several other credits in this investigation operation that are also worthy of praise, but because they involve imperial secrets, they are not publicly commended here.

To tell the truth, Joe beat Yanan, the envoy of the Kingdom of St. Sia, to half death, and in the end he actually dug up the list of all the spies and secret lines of the Navy of the Kingdom of St. Sia in the port of Tulum...... There is no doubt that this is an amazing achievement, but can it be said openly here? Definitely not!

Finally, Director Stein excitedly announced that because Joe's meritorious deeds were too outstanding this time, at the request of Director Stein, with the approval of Duke Ross, and in the morning with the second approval of His Excellency Inspector General Vigral, Joe would be awarded the Imperial Medal of Merit for Thorns of the First Class.

The Delun Empire attaches great importance to military merit and has a large, rigorous and strict system of military merit medals.

The Imperial First Class Thorn Meritorious Service Medal, which is a military merit medal, generally speaking, only soldiers on the front-line battlefield have the opportunity to get it. This medal is specially used to reward warriors who have shed blood and sacrificed for the empire, saved heavy losses, and fought for great benefits for the empire in the war.

Probably in a battle in which both sides invested more than 100,000 troops, only soldiers who turned the tide and made outstanding contributions to the final victory of the battle in a disadvantageous state of their own side had the opportunity to receive a first-class thorn meritorious service medal.

This medal represents the blood and courage of the imperial soldiers, and the person who holds this medal represents that he is a true imperial warrior.

The number of first-class thorn merit medals is scarce, many imperial generals have been in the army all their lives, and they have obtained countless military merit medals of higher rank, but in their medal display cabinet, there is such an 'iron gray thorn flower'!

Many imperial generals have spoken out that they are willing to exchange a first-class Golden Oak Leaf Hydra Grand Medal for a third-class Thorn Merit Medal...... It's just that none of them have a dream come true!

Joe stood hot in front of Director Stein.

He really didn't expect that he would be able to get this medal that countless Imperial soldiers coveted.

Rao is that he has been bold since he was a child, and he is not afraid of heaven and earth, and at this moment he also feels inexplicable panic - is this a bit too much? Even if he made a small contribution?

Gorkin's family letter mentions that he only got a third-class thorn meritorious service medal!

Isn't that a bit excessive?

After all, he is a police officer, not a serious soldier of the Imperial Army...... He was actually satisfied with a medal from the police system.

A nine-pointed star-shaped medallion the size of a palm, cast of sterling silver, was carefully pinned to Joe's left chest by Director Stein.

In the center of the medal is a garland of iron-gray thorns inlaid with three circles of enamel, and in the center of the wreath is a sword and axe cross shield coat of arms. A relief hydra, poking its head out from behind the coat of arms, nine huge heads snaking out of the wreath of thorns, opening its mouth to bite the nine horns of the nine-pointed star medallion.

The hydra on the medal is hideous and murderous, as if it can rush out of the medal at any time and devour the enemies in front of it.

Throughout the great powers of the Metland Continent, only the military exploits of the Delen Empire are so vicious.

Director Stein lowered his voice and whispered to Qiao: "This medal is a face-saving item borrowed from the garrison logistics department, take a photo first!" The medal that belongs to you must be specially made by the Logistics Department of the Imperial Military Department, numbered, engraved with your name, and issued along with the official medal certificate and matching dress, ribbon, sword, etc. ”

"Probably, in a month, you'll be able to receive it, right? When you go to my office, someone from the logistics department of the garrison will measure your body size and then report to the logistics department of the military department. ”

Joe puffed up his chest and saluted Director Stein earnestly.

"Also, would you like to know your new position?" Director Stein smiled brightly at Joe.
