Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Time to go to work, psychological counseling department_1

Dominas stayed up until two in the morning, as he didn’t want to miss the outcomes of their meetings.

A mixture of anxiety and anticipation, these emotions he hadn’t experienced in quite some time.

Dorago Safron did not disappoint. Right after two o’clock, he received a reply from him. Unlike a typical report, the message went into thorough detail about the "eager citizen’s" capabilities and potential vulnerabilities. Using these vulnerabilities, an intricate assassination plan was formulated.

Furthermore, they had created a model named "Bullet Trajectory".

The existence of this model allowed Dominas to truly see the possibility of killing the target.

He couldn’t think of any other word but "professional" to describe Dorago.

A twinge of regret welled up in his heart.

If he wasn’t backed into a corner by the mysterious helper of Lu Xiang, he would have almost missed out on such a trustworthy ally.

After reading the message, Dominas quickly composed a reply:

"Name your price for the reward."

"We’ll discuss it after the job is done."

After replying to the message, Song Lan, laying on his bed, casually placed his phone next to his pillow.

He and the captain had discussed a lot of theoretical knowledge today, and his brain was still in an excited state, which was not conducive to sleep.

Theoretically, the moment his distant relative decided to execute this plan, the outcome was already predetermined.

After all, he wasn’t a devil who would extort a dying man.

Wouldn’t that make him equivalent to an unscrupulous capitalist?

As for the way to survive, he had hinted at it from the start -- abandon all conspiracies, commit to being good from then on, and everyone can live harmoniously and happily in the Seventeenth District. Otherwise, their High Prosecutor might end up playing mahjong with Chai Ke, Phine, and Angel that very night.

But it seems that some people would rather face death than give up their scheming.

An old saying suddenly came to Song Lan’s mind.

People’s joys and sorrows do not always align, he thought the saying was spot on.

The city-wide conference next week.

His gut told Song Lan that this would be the time when the newly appointed High Prosecutor and Lu Xiang would confront each other head-on. All the important leaders of each department will convene in the conference center of the Seventeenth District. During those five days, all influential persons that could impact the city will be present.

There is less than a week left until the conference.

...

The next day.

Like always, Song Lan arrived promptly for work.

Perhaps due to the upcoming city-wide conference, the entire Law Enforcer department was in a heightened state of readiness. The most significant indication was almost complete disappearance of the frequent loiterers of their department.

Except for Comrade Zhuang Chi.

It seemed that she had come over even before dawn and left a note saying "the burger machine is broken, please fix ASAP" at the most prominent location of the vending machine.

Of course, the burger machine wasn’t broken. It was just that, when she arrived, Elmon hadn’t started work yet.

After Song Lan removed the note, he asked casually, "Where’s Roger?"

There were only three people in their department, so anyone’s absence stood out conspicuously.

"He took leave today."

Valerian responded via her tablet; she seemed to have completely adapted to communicating through her device.

"He is one of the security advisors for the city-wide conference each quarter. He has to visit the conference venue in advance these few days to familiarize himself with the environment."

A security advisor for the city-wide conference?

Once again, Song Lan felt that Roger working in their department was an underutilization of his talents. He should have had a promising future, being able to showcase himself before so many top officials, yet he chose to transfer to their department, which primarily focused on coasting through life and health preservation.

"Our department is responsible for the main security each quarter, so we have to consider every possible situation."

Let’s say the worst-case scenario happens, a group of unknown criminals stormed the venue, and successfully takes all the attendees hostage. They would still have to find ways to ensure the safety of the hostages.

This differed from handling the general public; every participant at the meeting was of utmost importance, and not a single mistake could be allowed.

Having Roger at the venue served as the last line of defense. After all, in the Seventeenth District, no one is more professional or experienced as a Negotiating Expert than Roger.

Valerian seemed surprised, "Chief, you didn’t know? This time every quarter is our busiest period."

"Ah, I know, how could I possibly not know that?"

Song Lan practically wore his guilt on his face.

Securing the safety of conference participants, especially in the criminal-ridden Seventeenth District, was indeed a massive undertaking, and it was only normal for all departments to be busy.

However, the logistics department was not a part of "all departments".

On the contrary, the busier other departments were, the less occupied they are. They did not need to organize any events, even their supervisors did not have the time to pay attention to them.

As a pioneer in coasting through work in the logistics department, Song Lan had never paid any attention to the city-wide conference.

But it seemed now that their department was likely to follow in the footsteps of the logistics department, becoming the second department to adopt a "none of my business" attitude towards the city-wide conference.

So what were the tasks for their department?

To provide psychological counseling services to colleagues suffering from severe mental stress, depressive tendencies, or those who have developed psychological trauma from crime scenes.

Would the top leaders of the Seventeenth District require their psychological counseling services?

Obviously not.

Furthermore, even if they indeed needed to undergo psychological counseling, it wouldn’t be scheduled during the city-wide conference. Wouldn’t that just provide ammunition to their competitors?

Which means they would not only be exempted from attending the city-wide conference, but they would also enjoy the additional benefit provided by the absence of "girlfriend".

"With Roger there, it will be foolproof."

Upon hearing this news, Song Lan casually clicked on the set of movies he downloaded yesterday and cockily crossed his legs.

Considering that Lu Xiang will also be busy with the city-wide conference, there was no time left to assign them more work.

Truthfully, for a devoted follower of the Way of the Salty Fish, his new department’s schedule for the past few days has been too hectic. Considering his after-hours break-ins to the mayor’s house and protecting the safety of employees at night, he had been overworked for these past few days!

This seriously violates Song Lan’s attitude towards work.

Hmm, the workload for the next half a month was already done in these three days; hence, the rest of the half a month should be considered semi-vacation time.

No matter what others thought, as the Chief, Song Lan felt that such an arrangement was very reasonable.

"Chief, please pay attention to managing your expression."

Seeing Song Lan’s increasingly complacent smile, Valerian, as a team member, had no choice but to stand up and block Song Lan’s line of sight to the monitor with her tablet.

That smile was warm and innocent, identical to when one discovers a storewide 90% off discount while online shopping.

"I just remembered something happy," Song Lan cleared his throat and composed his expression.

"Chief, I have to tell you some unfortunate news."

Another message appeared on the tablet, and Valerian began to display a schadenfreude expression.

"When I arrived this morning, I saw a notice that our department has been included in the roster of departments that needed to be on duty during the city-wide conference."
