Ace of the Dragon Division Chapter 147: I Will Pack Up All Four Gates Before I Leave Part two

Chapter 147: I Will Pack Up All Four Gates Before I Leave (Part two)

Director: “But your intelligence isn’t something a thug in the army should have.”

He patiently tried to persuade Xu Cheng, “Listen to me, Xu Cheng, you have great talent, and sooner or later, you will shine if you stay here. I believe that with you here guarding Shangcheng, the crime rate will definitely go down dramatically.”

Xu Cheng sighed. “Director, I understand what you mean. Staying behind in Shangcheng to improve the society’s safety is indeed a job that serves the people, and I understand that if I stay, I would have a great shot at fame and power, and it’s a dream that most men would want to reach. However, I still want to focus on being a soldier, like a sharp sword, but one that’s not directed to people of the same nation but to fight for the country’s glory on the international stage.”

The director’s pupils shrunk, and he couldn’t help but look at Xu Cheng with a higher level of respect as he slightly nodded. “I know now, you think the stage is too small here, right?”

Then, he pondered for a moment and bitterly laughed. “That’s true too. It would be overkill to keep you here. But you should know, even if you become the top soldier, you might still not have a greater shot at power and money than if you stay here. Going up to the international stage to fight for the country’s glory is something that’s usually hard yet doesn’t yield much in return. You should think clearly before deciding.”

Xu Cheng: “I already thought about it. I’m not afraid of you laughing at me for overestimating myself, but as for the Dragon Division selection, I’m still not going to give up. And this year, I will go back to the army to participate.”

Seeing him this determined, the director sighed. “I really want to shout and swear at your instructor. Was it he who brainwashed you into not going into politics?”

“No, but he knows me very well.” Xu Cheng smiled.

Director: “Tsk tsk, it’s fine if you want to go. But, before you go, can you pack up the four Gates and take them with you?”

Xu Cheng laughed. “Are you really that confident in me knocking over all four of them?”

“I wasn’t before, but I am now.” The director laughed and said as he patted Xu Cheng on the shoulder, “This case is pretty big, and no one other than you can shoulder it. Behind you, you have the army and the country, and you don’t know how many people will come out to back you up, even if you screw up. So don’t blame me for relying on you to take care of this.”

Xu Cheng saluted. “Director, I still really want to thank you for believing in me ever since I was a patrol cop. I will get to the bottom of this case and pack up what I can before I go back to the army.”

“Okay, let’s grab a drink once this is all over, when there’s no superior and subordinate relationship between us. I also came from the army, so let’s have a good drink together,”

“Okay.” Xu Cheng replied as he smiled, “Then I’m going to go and work now.”

“Go.” The director nodded. Then, he saw Xu Cheng out of his office. After his secretary came in and closed the door behind him, he asked the director in concern, “Sir, do you think he can pack West Gate up?”

“I don’t know.” The director shook his head.

The secretary paused for a moment. Then, he heard the director continue, “But I know someone from higher up talked to me about him before. Connecting the figure from higher up, plus how he pretty much screwed both Gates by now, I think he can fack over all four Gates!”
