Chapter 71: Chapter 31: Reporting Work, Annual Outstanding Officer Evaluation (Please Bookmark and Vote Monthly)
The next day, Luo Fei arrived at the office at 7:20. It was rare that Yang Su hadn’t arrived yet. It seemed that yesterday had exhausted him so much that he couldn’t get up today.
Luo Fei sat at his seat, closed his eyes for a few minutes, then took out a notebook and began writing the summary report for the case of Yu Xiaoman, writing it in detail from the initial investigation to the subsequent interrogation.
Having gained experience from writing case summary reports several times before, Luo Fei now found writing these reports to be quite handy.
By the time Wang Lei, Xia Zheng, and the others started work around eight o’clock, Luo Fei had almost finished writing the case summary report.
Around 8:10, Yang Su walked into the office holding a stick of fried dough and a cup of soy milk.
"Luo Fei, I just ran into Captain Zhao at the entrance. He asked you to come to his office," Yang Su said indistinctly while eating his fried dough, looking at Luo Fei.
"All right, I’ll head over now." Hearing that Zhao Donglai was looking for him, Luo Fei quickly got up and left the office.
"Team Leader, what does Captain Zhao want with Luo Fei?" Xia Zheng curiously asked.
Yang Su glanced at Xia Zheng, "You’re asking me? How would I know?"
"It’s definitely something good. I’ve been in our Criminal Investigation Team for so many years, and I’ve never seen Captain Zhao proactively look for me. People really are different from each other! But honestly, Luo Fei is indeed impressive. To this day, I still can’t figure out how he discovered that Zhou Zhi and Yang Cheng were involved in a murder case, and he even went to Gu Province to investigate and eventually solved the case," Wang Lei exclaimed with a mix of admiration and amazement.
"Luo Fei has the intuition of a beast when it comes to solving cases. His intuition is very accurate," Yang Su commented nonchalantly.
"Yes, yes, when working with Luo Fei on cases, it does seem to be like that," Wang Lei quickly nodded in agreement.
"Why don’t I have this kind of intuition?" Xia Zheng sighed with a regretful expression.
At this time, Luo Fei had already arrived at the entrance of Zhao Donglai’s office.
Zhao Donglai was writing something when Luo Fei knocked on the door.
"Captain Zhao, you were looking for me."
"Ah, Luo Fei! Come in quickly." Seeing that it was Luo Fei, Zhao Donglai put down his pen and got up from his seat, wearing a very bright smile.
Having solved consecutive cases, one of which was a murder that happened three years ago in Gu Province, Zhao Donglai was in a very good mood.
After Luo Fei entered the office, Zhao Donglai invited him to sit on the sofa, while he himself sat on the chair beside him.
"There are two things I want to discuss. First, at ten o’clock, you will accompany me to report to Director Wu about the cases of Zeng Tianming and Yu Xiaoman. Make sure you finalize the summary report for Yu Xiaoman’s case quickly; second, the annual Outstanding Police Officer evaluation for Ningjiang County has started. Although you’ve just joined our Criminal Investigation Team not long ago, your achievements are evident to all. So, fill out an application form for the Annual Outstanding Police Officer and give it to me. I’ll submit it for you. I’ll send you the application form for Outstanding Police Officer later; find some time to fill it out," Zhao Donglai said warmly to Luo Fei.
"Yes, thank you, Captain Zhao," Luo Fei nodded heavily in response. Previously, when he had just started working, he habitually responded with "Uh-huh" when superiors assigned tasks. After being reminded, he understood that within the police system, when a subordinate faces a superior’s task assignment, they should respond with "Yes or No."
"You’ve performed very well these past two times. Neither Director Wu nor I were wrong about you; keep up the good work," Zhao Donglai said with satisfaction.
"I will continue to work hard," Luo Fei replied.
"Also, today I’m taking you to report to Director Wu. On one hand, it’s because you were crucial in solving these two cases; on the other, your performance in the annual Outstanding Police Officer evaluation will also benefit significantly from Director Wu’s personal opinion, so make sure you conduct yourself well and make a good impression on Director Wu. This could be advantageous for both this evaluation and your future career advancements," Zhao Donglai suddenly reminded him with earnestness.
"Yes, thank you, Captain Zhao, I’ll remember that and will do my best to perform well."
Luo Fei had just returned to the first team office when he received the application form for the annual Outstanding Police Officer evaluation sent by Zhao Donglai.
"Luo Fei, what did Captain Zhao want with you just now?" Xia Zheng asked out of curiosity.
Luo Fei didn’t hide it, as there was nothing to conceal, and he mentioned that Zhao Donglai asked him to report the work to Wu Cheng together and to fill out the application form for the annual Outstanding Police Officer.
After Luo Fei finished speaking, Xia Zheng enviously said, "Wow, how long have you been with the Criminal Investigation Team? And already you’re reporting to Director Wu with Captain Zhao and applying for Outstanding Police Officer of the Year. I’m truly envious."
Wang Lei then directly cupped his fists and said, "Luo Fei, my good brother, I have nothing more to say than, ’Should you become prosperous, do not forget.’"
"Should you become prosperous, do not forget." Even the taciturn Zhong Jun echoed.
Luo Fei also smiled and said, "Don’t worry, should you become prosperous, do not forget."
Afterward, Luo Fei returned to his seat, pondering over the upcoming work report to Wu Cheng, he mentally reviewed the cases of Zeng Tianming and Yu Xiaoman again, aiming for clarity and organization during the report to leave a good impression on Director Wu.
Having reviewed the reporting content, Luo Fei began filling out the application form for the annual Outstanding Police Officer. It took him less than ten minutes, and after checking it once to confirm there were no issues, he sent it to Zhao Donglai.
At ten o’clock, Zhao Donglai called for Luo Fei, and then Luo Fei followed Zhao Donglai to the police bureau.
Director Wu Cheng’s office.
Zhao Donglai, with Luo Fei in tow, knocked on the door and entered, clearly showing that Zhao Donglai had a good private relationship with Director Wu Cheng.
Wu Cheng, who had been reviewing documents at his desk, stopped when he saw Zhao Donglai and Luo Fei arriving.
Zhao Donglai entered the office, smiling, "Director Wu, we’re here to report on our work."
Wu Cheng looked at Zhao Donglai and smiled, "You rascal, you’re not here to report on work, you’re here to ask for favors, aren’t you?"
"Oh, come on now, Director Wu, am I that kind of person? We’re honestly here to report," Zhao Donglai exclaimed in mock grievance.
Wu Cheng laughed, "Alright, alright, the work you guys did on Zeng Tianming’s and Yu Xiaoman’s cases was impressive. Solving them so quickly indeed."
Upon hearing Wu Cheng’s words, Zhao Donglai immediately said, "Director Wu, Luo Fei and I came specifically to report on these two cases."
"Alright, I need to know the specifics anyway," Wu Cheng nodded.
"Director Wu, the swift resolution of these two cases was primarily due to Luo Fei. Without him, who knows how long they would have remained unsolved, or whether they would be solved at all. That’s why I specifically brought Luo Fei here to give you a detailed report," Zhao Donglai said to Wu Cheng.
"Not bad," Wu Cheng nodded in satisfaction at Luo Fei. He was well aware that ever since Luo Fei joined the Criminal Investigation Team, their case-solving rate and speed had significantly increased.
The Criminal Investigation Team, being one of the most crucial departments of the police bureau, had their case-solving efficiency and rate greatly influence the overall rating of the Ningjiang County Public Security Bureau. With these improvements in the Criminal Investigation Team, as the overseeing leader, Wu Cheng was naturally very pleased.
As a result, he grew increasingly fond of Luo Fei, who brought these changes to the team.
