Chapter 36 Informal Cooperation
"Don't worry, you just lost a small part of your memory at that time. Apart from that, no sequelae have been detected on your body, and no data backdoors have been found in the implants on your body." After the negotiation ended and they returned to the Management Bureau, Aaron and Ling
Mitsuru went directly to the medical department for a full-body checkup without even making a report. They couldn't guarantee that the guys in District 9 didn't do anything else during the short period after he lost consciousness.
"So the glasses we are wearing are just modified short-term memory erasers?" Memory erasers are no stranger to the police. This thing has low side effects and little additional damage. It will only erase short-term data within a period of time.
It does not affect long-term memory and memory ability, so it is often used by special forces to "silence" irrelevant witnesses when performing high-security tasks. Although some human rights organizations strongly oppose the use of such equipment, the police have never ignored it.
over these protests.
"Yes, the traces left in your brain are consistent with those of the short-term memory eraser, so there is no need to worry about subsequent problems." The medical officer on duty nodded.
"It turns out that they relied on this thing to keep the speaker's identity mysterious." Aaron scratched his head unwillingly, "What a shame. It would be great if they could remember the speaker's true identity."
"If we really remember it, we probably won't be able to leave District 9 alive. We can't be too greedy." Ling Chong came over and patted Aaron on the shoulder, "It's better to report to the supervisor first. I guess she has already been waiting.
You have to worry."
"Yes." According to Zhou Yuqing, most of the facilities in this building are managed by Lan Tian, which means that she should have noticed it the moment the two entered the building. If she continued to delay, she didn't know what weird things were going to happen.
.
After leaving the infirmary and returning to his office, Lan Tian and Zhou Yuqing were discussing something unknown inside. Lan Tian raised his head when he saw the two of them entering the room.
"Has the other party agreed to cooperate?"
"Agreed, and we also met the talker of the Ninth District." Aaron's tone revealed a hint of pride, "Now it's not just Yu Wanzhi who is helping us find Zhao Jin's whereabouts, but also the entire Ninth District's top officials.
Up and down.”
"But it's not without cost. The memory of our negotiation with the speaker was erased by the eraser." Ling Chong added.
"As long as you agree, everything else is secondary." Lan Tian looked relieved, "If District 9 refuses to cooperate with us, they will have to face the Emergency Department alone."
"Is something going on over there again?" Aaron frowned and asked.
"Well, there is not very good news from my friend." Zhou Yuqing nodded, "The failure to cast a net to investigate the underground sewers has made the head of the emergency department very unhappy. If there is still no results within this week,
If breakthroughs are made elsewhere, the Ministry of Emergency Situations may apply to superiors to enter District 9 for investigation."
"That means we still have five days." Aaron glanced at the calendar in the corner of the screen, "We have to inform Yu Wanzhi of the news and let him know that the matter is imminent."
"Will it be regarded as us taking the opportunity to exert pressure?" Ling Chong was a little worried. He was afraid that excessive pressure on District 9 would lead to unnecessary backlash.
"It's their business to think what they think, and it's our problem to say it or not." Lan Tian took over, "Anyway, it's not us who will suffer the most when the time comes. We just need to explain the remaining pros and cons and let them consider it themselves.
"
"Let's do it!" Aaron, who was full of energy, expressed his support for Lan Tian's judgment. "Since time is urgent, I want to apply for permanent residence in District 9 in the next few days. I hope the supervisor can give me approval."
"That's right, the documents will be here soon." Lan Tian agreed without hesitation, "Sister Zhou, please come with him."
"Uncle Ling, can't you?" Although Zhou Yuqing is also a good partner, Aaron still prefers to cooperate with his old partner.
"I can't get Officer Ling's approval from here. Don't forget that he is still a member of the police department, and it is not appropriate for a police officer who has already married and established a career to perform permanent duties in the 9th District, right?" Lan Tian asked in return.
"This..." Aaron grinned, speechless.
"Supervisor, I have no problem." Ling Chong said quickly when he saw this.
"Officer Ling, this is not about whether you think there is a problem, it is about me considering the risk factor encountered by my subordinates." Lan Tian shook his head seriously, "You have to understand the responsibilities I need to bear as the leader of the investigation team."
"...Understood, I will obey the arrangement." Ling Chong hesitated but did not object, "Miss Zhou, please take care of that guy Aaron."
"Uncle Ling, I'm not a child and need others to take care of me?" Aaron said unhappily before Zhou Yuqing could speak.
"It's very childish to speak up immediately if you feel dissatisfied." Ling Chong shrugged, "Performing a permanent mission in a right-and-wrong place like the 9th District is extremely risky. You must be careful and never do it.
I feel that I was negligent by reaching a cooperation agreement with those people.”
"I remember." Feeling that Ling Chong was really worried about him, Aaron's heart warmed up and he honestly agreed without saying anything else.
"Without further delay, let's get ready to go after the people have been selected." Lan Tian urged, clapping his hands with confusion.
"Miss Zhou, I've been giving you a lot of advice these days." Aaron glanced at Zhou Yuqing, who was going to be his partner next, and said with a smile.
"Ah, I hope we can cooperate happily." Zhou Yuqing responded with a polite smile.
Considering the special situation in the Ninth District, neither Aaron nor Zhou Yuqing applied for equipment that could easily lead to misunderstandings. They only carried defensive weapons with limited power and cash that may be of greater use in the Ninth District. This was also the case when they entered the Ninth District again.
The journey was smooth, but the two policemen guarding outside cast a strange look at Aaron.
Aaron can understand this sight. The Intelligent Management Bureau is almost insulated from the Ninth District, but he actually entered the Ninth District continuously in a short period of time and performed a permanent mission. How could it not make people think?
As soon as the two walked into District 9, an old-model car parked in front of them. Aaron noticed that the person in the driver's seat was Yu Wanzhi's Ma Zai. The two had met in that warehouse.
fate.
"Officer, do you want a ride?" Ma Zai waved his hand towards Aaron and asked with a smile.
"That's very helpful. I happened to have something urgent to discuss with Boss Yu." Having had previous experience, Aaron was quite familiar with it. "This is Miss Zhou, who is also my colleague."
"You two, get in the car. The boss has told us that no matter what the police officer asks us to do, we will try our best to cooperate." Ma Zai nodded and politely invited the two of them into the car.
The car wound around the maze-like streets of the 9th District, and finally stopped in front of a lavishly decorated high-rise apartment building.
"This whole building is the property of the boss, and most of our Ma Zai family members are staying here. The boss is already waiting on the top floor." After saying hello to the armed security guard in the security room, Ma Zai spoke to him again.
Aaron introduced.
"Boss Yu still takes care of your family's housing?" Aaron was very surprised. You must know that even the police agencies with good welfare conditions outside do not have such treatment.
"The boss treats us as family members, so everyone will work hard for the boss." Ma Zai's tone sounded very grateful, but Zhou Yuqing's brows twitched inadvertently.
As a gang boss, he even manages Ma Tsai's family arrangements. At first glance, he seems to be a brotherly brother. However, the centralized placement of his subordinates' families means that their families are centralized and controlled. If any of his subordinates intends to rebel, he must
Think carefully about what will happen to your family in the hands of Yu Wanzhi. On the other hand, if anyone is unwilling to accept this charity from Yu Wanzhi, then Yu Wanzhi probably will not reuse these people whose loyalty cannot stand the test.
subordinates.
