Atlas of Heaven and Earth-Chapter 356: Chief Instructor (Happy New Year to everyone!)
Hearing that Instructor Che wanted to see Chen Chuan, Yu Wan couldn't help but feel a little worried and asked, "Why does he want to see Chan'er?"
Chen Chuan smiled, "It's okay, Little Aunt, Instructor Che and Uncle are colleagues from the same bureau. Since he's come to our door, that means he is a guest. I'll go meet him."
Nian Fuli said, "I'll go with Little Chuan." He put on his hat again, buttoned up his coat, and went out with Chen Chuan.
Instructor Che didn't enter the family area but waited outside the alley. When Chen Chuan and Nian Fuli came out, they saw a special car parked there, with two armed vehicles responsible for protection in front and behind.
Standing in front of the car was a man in his early thirties, wearing a Patrol Bureau instructor uniform. This man had thick, knife-like eyebrows and very sharp eyes. To be fair, he looked quite handsome, but he had an aggressive aura that made him feel unapproachable.
Seeing the two of them come out, he took the initiative to walk over. He didn't look at Nian Fuli but extended his hand to Chen Chuan, "Are you Executive Officer Chen? I am Che Lie, the chief instructor of the Yang Zhi Patrol Bureau."
When Chen Chuan saw the other party approaching, he realized that this person was also a Internal energy practitioner.
This was normal because, judging from Instructor Wen's situation, the chief instructor's responsibilities included not only training police officers but also ensuring the personal safety of important figures in the Patrol Bureau.
This was someone who appeared to have little power on the surface, but was actually very important.
As for the other party identifying his current identity in one go, it was not surprising. He knew when he came out from the Processing Bureau,
that when he came to Yangzhi City, the Processing Bureau would definitely inform the upper echelons of the Yangzhi City Government and Patrol Bureau in advance.
At this moment, he also reached out, and the moment he grasped the other party's hand, he felt a surge of Internal energy coming over. He remained calm and transmitted a similar amount of Internal energy back.
As the two Internal energies collided, Che Lie only felt a burst of soreness and numbness in his forearm, as if he was about to be bounced away. He quickly tried to hold on, but felt that this Internal energy had suddenly disappeared without a trace. He was immediately shocked, and when Chen Chuan released his fingers, he inconspicuously withdrew his hand.
He then looked at Nian Fuli, "Captain Nian, can you allow me and Executive Officer Chen to have a word alone?"
Nian Fuli stood still and looked at Chen Chuan.
Chen Chuan said, "Uncle, it's okay. I'll have a few words with Instructor Che."
Nian Fuli said, "Then you chat. I'll be at the alley entrance. Let me know if anything happens." With that, he walked back, lit a cigarette at the alley and slowly smoked it.
Instructor Che ignored Nian Fuli and looked at Chen Chuan, saying, "Executive Officer Chen, speaking of which, I also graduated from Central City Wuyi. I'll be presumptuous and call you my junior."
Chen Chuan said, "So you are a senior from the Main Academy."
Instructor Che looked at him for a few moments and said, "Junior Chen is truly young and promising. When I graduated from the Academy, it took me three years to enter the Internal energy practice.
But you, Junior, have achieved such accomplishments in just over half a year after entering the Main Academy. I haven't seen many people with such talent."
Chen Chuan's mind had become much more acute, and he could sense that although this person was very polite to him in his words and was trying to build rapport with him, there was a faint sense of hostility and scrutiny hidden behind it.
He said, "Senior Che is too kind."
Che Lie said, "I know what you've done before, Junior Chen. Those vermin who hinder the country should be dealt with ruthlessly, beheaded, and exterminated without any hesitation."
Hearing him say this, Chen Chuan couldn't help but think of the person he had met with Special Envoy Feng. Is this the style of people from the National Special Operations Committee?
Che Lie said, "Now that Yang Zhi has eliminated those vermin, there are still many targets that threaten the Great Shun Government that need to be eliminated, such as the armed men outside the city carrying a weapon."
Chen Chuan said, "Is Instructor Che talking about those villagers?"
"Villagers?"
Che Lie's eyes sharpened, "They are not villagers. They are illegally carrying a weapon, hiding Resistance Organization members, and establishing strongholds. This is against the Great Shun Government and must be suppressed!"
Chen Chuan remained noncommittal.
Che Lie raised his eyebrows and stared at him, "Executive Officer Chen, do you seem to have some sympathy for those Resistance Organizations? This is not a good tendency."
Chen Chuan raised his eyes and looked directly at him, saying, "Senior Che is not a local of Yang Zhi, is he?"
Che Lie came into contact with his bright and sharp gaze, and couldn't help but lean back slightly, his expression slightly condensed. He said in a deep voice, "I only came to Yang Zhi this year to take office, but as soon as I arrived, I discovered many problems. These have accumulated over a long period of time and have now reached a point where they must be cleaned up and corrected."
Chen Chuan said, "Senior Che, I grew up in Yang Zhi. Those villages have been there since I was a child, and they have never posed any threat to Yangzhi City. On the contrary, they are often subjected to raids by bandits.
Just last year, I also wiped out a gang of bandits who tried to rob a village there. Later, it was proven that they were involved with the Resistance Organization that participated in the train robbery. If these villages are all strongholds of the Resistance Organization, would they rob themselves?"
Che Lie slowly said, "Executive Officer Chen is indeed talented. I heard about what you did last year, but your information is outdated. That robbery was just an internal struggle between members of the Resistance Organization.
I was sent to the Yang Zhi Patrol Bureau this time by my superiors, and one of my tasks is to clean them up. I will take action tomorrow."
He looked at Chen Chuan, "Junior Chen, this is a good opportunity to show off your skills. Every effort we make will be seen by our superiors. Would you like to come along?"
Chen Chuan declined, "Senior Che, I'm sorry, I just plan to enjoy my vacation quietly and spend time with my family this time I came home. This is not my responsibility, so please forgive me for not being able to join you."
Che Lie stared at him for a moment and said, "Since that's the case, then Junior Chen, please enjoy your vacation. I won't disturb you." After saying that, he nodded and turned to walk towards the car.
The police officer who followed him immediately opened the car door for him, but before entering the car, he paused, turned around and said, "I will be going out tomorrow to suppress bandits. If you change your mind, Junior Chen, you can come and find me again."
After speaking, he sat inside, the car door slammed shut, and then slowly drove out under the escort of two Armed patrol vehicles.
Chen Chuan watched him leave. Although this person was only a chief instructor, the pomp of his departure was even greater than that of the bureau chief.
He walked back, and Nian Fuli, who was waiting there, said, "Finished talking?" He nodded, Nian Fuli put out his cigarette, threw it on the ground, stomped on it a few times, and said, "Let's go back."
When they returned to the house, Nian Fuli gave Yu Wan, who was waiting there, a reassuring look, saying, "It's okay." He then said to Chen Chuan, "Little Chuan, what did that Che guy say to you?"
Chen Chuan first poured him a glass of water, and then said, "What he meant was that he wanted to invite me to join him in exterminating the villages outside the city, but I think his real purpose is not to let me come out and stop him."
Yu Wan asked in confusion, "But Chan'er, what does this have to do with you?"
"No, it does have something to do with it." Nian Fuli took off his hat and said, "Little Chuan is not an ordinary person now. Little Chuan is from Central City and holds a position in the General Administration. He is a formal Central City law enforcement officer and can talk to the General Administration."
He touched the short stubble on his head, "I was wondering why they decided to send me, but then they wouldn't let me go, and they put on such a polite face. It turns out it's because of Little Chuan."
Chen Chuan said, "Perhaps that's the case."
In fact, he knew in his heart that what Nian Fuli said was only one of the reasons. More importantly, it was because he was a Internal energy practitioner.
It seems that Che Lie really valued this operation very much, so he specifically came out to meet him.
Yu Wan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is a big deal."
Nian Fuli waved his hand, "Let's eat first."
After dinner, Yu Wan took the two little ones out for a walk, while Chen Chuan and Nian Fuli sat down to discuss what had just happened. They didn't say a few words when suddenly the phone rang.
Nian Fuli went over to pick it up, listened for a while, snorted, and put it down, saying, "It was Little Wu calling. He said that Che Lie just left with his men, and he heard that they left in a hurry."
Chen Chuan said, "He told me earlier that it was tomorrow."
Nian Fuli shook his head and said, "He wasn't telling the truth. Maybe he was afraid of accidents. In the past, when we went out on missions, things would suddenly change in order to prevent information from leaking out."
Chen Chuan thought about it. Che Lie took action as soon as he got back. Perhaps he was afraid that things would change because of his disapproval during their conversation, or for some other reason.
However, he couldn't control these things at the moment. Seeing Nian Fuli there on the phone with his colleagues from the bureau asking for information, he didn't stay in the living room any longer and turned around to return to his room.
He first read a book for a while, and when the time was almost right, he took some sedatives Drugs and Guide up Breathing Technique.
Currently, he was fully capable of using Breathing Technique to replace sleep, which was very useful for maintaining his condition, and Breathing Technique was also particularly useful for regulating his state of mind.
A night passed quickly. At five o'clock in the morning, the phone suddenly rang in the living room. Nian Fuli had already gotten up at this time. He put down the towel he used to wipe his face, walked over, picked up the phone, and was first stunned, then his expression changed and his voice couldn't help but rise, "Say that again?"
Chen Chuan heard the noise and walked out of the room.
Nian Fuli then put down the phone and said to Yu Wan and Chen Chuan, "Che Lie is dead. He died outside a village last night."
Yu Wan was obviously taken aback, "Just... Instructor Che, who came to our door yesterday? Didn't they say that Instructor Che was very powerful?"
Nian Fuli frowned and said, "The situation is unclear. This is a big deal." He quickly grabbed the belt hanging on the coat rack and fastened it, and hurriedly picked up his hat, "I'm going to the bureau now."
Chen Chuan then said, "Uncle, let me go with you."
Nian Fuli hesitated for a moment, and then decisively said, "Okay! Little Chuan, you come along. You are very capable. Che Lie looked for you yesterday. I guess the bureau will ask you questions later, so let's just go together."
