Super Soldier in Campus

Because Lin Feng isn’t with the police, and isn’t even a public servant, having his name in the report is useless to him. But the merit of rescuing more than forty hostages without a scratch is a very real achievement for Liu Haidong—promotion, commendations, all of that matters a lot!

So when Liu Haidong heard that there was no sign of Lin Feng trying to hog the credit, his mood instantly shot up, and he even started directly calling Lin Feng "brother" in his sentences.

"Director Liu, don’t say these empty things." Lin Feng raised his head, looked at Liu Haidong, and said calmly, "I know very well what you want. How you handle things afterward, that’s your business. I absolutely won’t undercut you."

Hearing that, Liu Haidong’s eyes lit up... Lin Feng had put it out in the open—he was agreeing to give all the credit to him. In an instant, Liu Haidong had already thought through how to prettify his own "guidance role" in this "perfect rescue operation", and had even figured out how to deal with the pack of media people waiting outside the police cordon.

"However, there’s no such thing as a free lunch." Lin Feng looked at Liu Haidong and said evenly, "I think Director Liu understands that principle."

"Of course I understand..." Liu Haidong nodded repeatedly at Lin Feng and promised, "Brother Lin, whatever request you have, just say it. But let me put the ugly words up front: some things really can’t be done, so it’s better if you don’t bring those up, so we don’t hurt our friendship. Don’t you think? Haha!"

What Liu Haidong meant was: don’t ask for things that would put him in a tight spot. After all, he’s an ambitious leading cadre; there are many excessive things he simply can’t do.

"I certainly understand Director Liu’s difficulties. I won’t make things hard for you." Lin Feng nodded, glanced at Liu Haidong, then said calmly, "Director Liu, my request isn’t hard. I just hope you can help sort out the job arrangements for two people."

Liu Haidong froze for a moment, then said to Lin Feng with some embarrassment, "Brother Lin, you know, this is the police system... Ordinary people can’t get in without professional exams... Arranging jobs might be a bit difficult..."

"Director Liu, don’t worry about that. I won’t make things hard for you. The two people I’m talking about are both police professionals." Lin Feng looked at Liu Haidong with a smiling expression and said lightly, "Strictly speaking, it’s just a matter of changing their posts."

"Just a lateral transfer? That’s not hard." Liu Haidong nodded to Lin Feng and said, "I don’t know, what are the names of these two friends of yours..."

The two people Lin Feng wanted to move were, of course, Wu Mei and Ye Lin...

Although Wu Mei had already submitted her resignation, she hadn’t formally left yet. If Liu Haidong stepped in, withdrawing her resignation should be easy, then they could hang her under the publicity system in some cushy idle post. Wu Mei would probably be over the moon.

As for Ye Lin, Lin Feng purely wanted to mess with her! Lin Feng knew Ye Lin was impulsive, even slightly violent, and loved working on the front line in the detective squad. For Jiangzhou Police, that was a good thing... But for Lin Feng, who was always worrying about Ye Lin, he didn’t like that feeling!

If that’s selfish, then so be it. Lin Feng still decided to take advantage of this opportunity and have Liu Haidong transfer Ye Lin to the Jiangzhou Police training base to be a female instructor...

Then Lin Feng told Liu Haidong all about Wu Mei and Ye Lin’s situations, and very considerately reminded him that there was no need to rush—getting both matters done in about a month would be fine!

"Damn... you did that on purpose, didn’t you! You ask me to get it done within a month, and then say it’s not urgent... Then tell me, what counts as urgent to you? Do you know how much trouble it is for me to coordinate all the relationships? And transferring two female officers at the same time—people who don’t know the inside story will think I’ve got some shady entanglements with them..." Liu Haidong complained to Lin Feng with a thoroughly depressed face.

"Ahem... anyway, just handle it as you see fit. Just try to be quick." Lin Feng smiled awkwardly; he really hadn’t realized that what seemed like a simple transfer was such a hassle for Liu Haidong.

"But no matter how troublesome it is, I can tell you clearly: I’ve agreed to these two things." After grumbling for a while, Liu Haidong felt that Lin Feng’s requests weren’t that excessive and readily agreed. Then he remembered something else and casually asked Lin Feng, "Right, Brother Lin, when I saw your face just now as you rushed in to rescue the hostages, you looked really tense... During that dangerous moment, was Mayor Cao’s precious daughter also inside Shengshi Department Store Building?!"

There was a heaviness in Liu Haidong’s expression, since it involved Mayor Cao. If Cao Ying had really been in the building, he’d probably have to personally go see Cao Tiannan, confess and beg forgiveness, and explain the whole incident from start to finish.

But Lin Feng simply shook his head, then looked at Liu Haidong with a cheerful smile and said, "No, Cao Ying wasn’t in the building just now."

"Oh, that’s good. I was scared to death just now." Liu Haidong let out a breath of relief and spoke more lightly.

But Lin Feng seemed intent on tormenting Liu Haidong. Seeing him relax, Lin Feng’s face took on a mischievous smile as he said casually, "However, Director Liu, you really dodged a bullet this time. Mayor Cao’s daughter might not have been inside, but among the hostages, there was someone you absolutely wouldn’t want anything happening to... Fortunately she came out fine, so you can count yourself lucky."

"Someone more important than Mayor Cao’s daughter?" Liu Haidong’s expression froze, and he reflexively asked... He didn’t want to doubt Lin Feng’s words, but Cao Tiannan was already a regional powerhouse. There are only a handful of people in the whole of China more important than Cao Tiannan. Was Lin Feng messing with him?!

Before Lin Feng could answer, Liu Haidong’s phone suddenly rang. He took out his phone and saw it was a call from Jiangzhou City’s Number One, Secretary Jiang. His hand trembled, and regardless of Lin Feng being present, he didn’t dare show the slightest negligence and answered the call immediately.

"Secretary Jiang, it’s so late, and you still trouble yourself to call me personally—do you have any instructions?"

"Little Liu, I just got word that Chancellor Su’s precious daughter... seems to be in our Jiangzhou, and apparently appeared in Shengshi Department Store tonight, where the robbers were holding hostages. Check this situation for me."

Listening to Secretary Jiang, Liu Haidong felt his brain buzz and go blank. Chancellor Su’s daughter... By the time he came back to his senses, Secretary Jiang had already hung up at some point, while Lin Feng was standing there looking at him with a smiling expression.

"Director Liu, now you understand how big a favor I’ve done you, right?" Lin Feng said with a light laugh.

Liu Haidong nodded again and again; at this point he’d practically lost the ability to speak. He really couldn’t imagine what would happen to his future if Chancellor Su’s daughter had gotten into trouble on his turf...

Actually, forget about his future—if he mishandled things even slightly, he might not even be able to keep his current position!

In that moment, the gratitude in Liu Haidong’s heart toward Lin Feng rose to a very lofty level.
