Chapter 5 old acquaintances

Hu Pingtao has broken through the upper limit of 80.

Then he broke through eighty-five.

When the whistle sounded, the leader of the team leader who pressed his legs could no longer suppress his excitement and exclaimed at an unprecedented volume: "Ninety-six! I did ninety-six sit-ups in one minute. Even for the field troops, this is an absolute excellent result."

He reached out to Hu Pingtao and laughed heartily: "You are the first young man who made me admire you so many times."

Hu Pingtao held his hand and stood up from the cushion with a smile.

The team leader asked the form from the police officer responsible for recording the results, found Hu Pingtao's name, and neatly wrote the words "Ninety-Six" in the "Sit-ups" column, then closed the registration book and said seriously: "Take the next project well and bring out all your potential."

The physical fitness test is divided into four items, in addition to sit-ups, there are push-ups, standing long jump and two-kilometer long-distance running. In addition to the first test of male and female data, the other three items are different in terms of gender and age.

Hu Pingtao became the most eye-catching focus in the entire gymnasium.

He is in the twenty-four-year-old age group.

The standard for men to pass push-ups for one minute is thirty-five.

He made 102 in one go.

The man's standing long jump standard was 2.3 meters, and he jumped out 2.7 meters.

The last item is a two-kilometer long-distance race, which is also the most troublesome event for most candidates. The passing criteria for men is nine minutes and thirty seconds, while the woman delays the time for three minutes on this basis.

Hu Pingtao's result is five minutes and forty-one seconds.

The atmosphere in the entire gymnasium was warm, and every pair of eyes was following Hu Pingtao, with envy, jealousy, and feelings, praise, and admiration...

As long as it is an exam, the first place will be produced.

As the old saying goes: Life always proves yourself in exams.

...

The next day, the director's office of the Gudu District Branch.

The sunny morning is always pleasant. The bright sunshine is projected on the surface of the police badge on the front of the tall building, coated with a layer of dazzling gold. The plants in the nearby green belt are concealed with a blue and white tone. The sidewalks and roads outside are bustling and noisy. The buildings and courtyards inside are neat and solemn, showing a special atmosphere that blends into the downtown city.

The windows on one corner of the third floor are open, and you can see an old man with gray hair sitting before the work. He is thin and has a firm line on his face. Although he looks old in his fifties, he moves very quickly when raising his hands and feet, and has the vitality that is not a young man.

He was holding a pen in his hand and reviewing documents.

The top one is the list of auxiliary police officers who passed the test this period, as well as their double test scores, totaling 63.

As the branch director, Xiong Jie has a lot of things every day. There are dedicated personnel to supervise every link of the auxiliary police recruitment, and he is only responsible for the final inspection, that is, the final signature and approval.

Because it is the final approval form, there is no name of the candidate on the form, only the number arranged from high to low according to each person's score.

The situation today is a bit special. Xiong Jie stared at the first line of the recruitment form for a long time. He frowned and the pen in his hand did not fall. After about half a minute, he picked up the landline microphone placed on the table and pressed the four inside numbers: "Let Zhang Guanghong come to my office."

A few minutes later, the police officer who had been in charge of patrolling the field appeared at the door and raised his hand to knock on the open door: "Director Xiong, are you looking for me?"

Xiong Jie nodded, signaled to the other party to come over, picked up the auxiliary police recruitment results table placed in front of him, pointed to the first line, and asked seriously: "What's going on?"

The full score in the literary test and the physical fitness test are also full scores. Especially for long-distance running, sit-ups, push-ups and standing long jumps, the sub-values ​​of each subject are relatively high... Xiong Jie used to stay in the field troops, but later transferred to the local police system. These test data are so beautiful. Not to mention recruiting auxiliary police officers, even the military division competition can still be squeezed into the top ten.

Zhang Guanghong was amused at the sight: "Even if you don't look for me on this matter, I plan to find time to report it to you specifically. This young man is the first in the civil and military exams. This is absolutely not fake. There is surveillance in the examination room, and everyone is watching during the physical fitness test."

Xiong Jie knew these situations well. Of course, he knew that Zhang Guanghong would not make false claims. He just called him over to ask for questions out of curiosity, and his expression also eased: "This is the first time in the history of our branch that scored a lot of money... Well, what is the name of this young man?"

"Tiger Pingtao." Zhang Guanghong was deeply impressed by this.

When Xiong Jie heard this, he was stunned, and then an extremely strange expression appeared on his face: "Take this person's information to me."

...

In the afternoon, Hu Pingtao, who received the call notification, walked into the director's office. When he saw Xiong Jie, he couldn't help but want to turn around and run away.

After thinking about it, he still suppressed this idea, walked forward, and shouted honestly: "...Uncle Xiong."

He knew Xiong Jie, who was his father's old comrade-in-arms. When he was a child, he often came to his house to drink.

Xiong Jie's eyes were very gentle. He looked at Hu Pingtao up and down for a while, and pointed to the chair opposite: "Sit down!"

Hu Pingtao sat down as he said, feeling nervous.

"Why did you think of being an auxiliary police officer? When I called your father last month, he said that you were about to graduate and planned to sign up for the army." As he said that, Xiong Jie laughed and pointed at the personal report form on the table with his finger: "Look at you, the information of the main members of the family is very vague. Your father is obviously the deputy commander of the military region, but you only wrote a soldier. You also have a mother, a good district senior official, you only wrote a job in the Zhaocheng District Committee."

Hu Pingtao lowered his head and said nothing.

"You ran out of your home secretly, right?" Xiong Jie hit the nail on the head.

He nodded, his head hanging low.

"Why?" Xiong Jie asked.

Hu Pingtao slowly raised his head, and his handsome face was full of stubbornness that belonged to young people: "It's not that I don't want to join the army, I just don't want to live as my father's requirements. I have my own ideas, I have my world."

Xiong Jie stared at him and smiled slightly: "There is not much difference between being a soldier and being a policeman. And with your ability, you can directly apply for civil servants and then enter the police system."

"That's what I think, take the civil servant exam and be a policeman." Hu Pingtao took a deep breath. His tone was mixed with frustration from reality, and a large amount of shame surged on his cheeks. The head that had just been raised lowered again: "I didn't bring money when I came out... but I had to eat, just thinking... I thought about finding a suitable job as soon as possible..."

Looking at the embarrassing big boy, Xiong Jie was amused and crying.

He understood the so-called ideals of young people. Xiong Jie also had children, and he also experienced the most difficult period to discipline. From the age of twelve, adolescent boys and girls gradually began to rebel. When they were in high school and college, the rebellious mentality became more and more serious. During that period, Xiong Jie got angry at home for his son's education, and beating and scolding was common... Later, when the child grew up and got a job, the situation gradually improved.

Hu Pingtao raised his head, plucked up his courage, and broke the silence: "Uncle Xiong, don't tell my dad about my police exam."

He used an extremely rare tone of pleading.

Xiong Jie put away his thoughts and asked seriously: "Why choose to be a policeman? I have to remind you that although your father and I have been in love for decades and I am also the director of the branch, I will not give you any care on this issue, and everything will be done according to the rules."

"I understand." From entering the office to now, Hu Pingtao's face has a smile for the first time: "I just want to prove myself... in a way that belongs to me."

Xiong Jie was not emotional: "I remind you again: the police work is much harder than you think. Especially for grassroots police, overtime is common and there is almost no rest."

"I'm not afraid." Hu Pingtao said seriously: "I won't smear my parents on the face."

Xiong Jie looked at him for two minutes and sighed with a wry smile: "You... your father is stubborn enough. I didn't expect you to be more stubborn than him. Let's do this, go to the police station below to work first, and I will notify you until the next civil service exam. Let me say it first, I have not abused my personal rights. If you hadn't passed the auxiliary police assessment, I wouldn't have spoken."

Hu Pingtao quickly stood up from the chair and smiled happily, "Thank you, Uncle Xiong."

"Don't be busy thanking me. The auxiliary police are still very hard-working. This job is not as easy as you think." Xiong Jie took out his mobile phone and clicked on the WeChat page: "Give me your phone."

Hu Pingtao didn't understand very well, but he still handed over the phone as he said. Xiong Jie took it casually, added a friend, and transferred 3,000 yuan: "The auxiliary police paid a salary on the 12th of a month. All those who just joined the company are Class III auxiliary police. The probation period is 2,400 yuan, and they can get 2,000 yuan after one month. The auxiliary police also receives promotions, Class II auxiliary police pays 3,300 yuan, and Class I auxiliary police pays 3,000 yuan. I will lend you this money first, and I will pay it back slowly when I have it."

Hu Pingtao did not refuse. Life is also a kind of cultivation. Stable income means having a foundation in society. Three thousand yuan can help him solve many problems.

Looking at Xiong Jie with a smile on his face, he took a deep breath and said gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Xiong."

After all, it was working hours, and a few minutes later, Hu Pingtao left the office.

Xiong Jie held his chin with his hands in his hands, stared at the empty chair opposite him for a while, shook his head, and smiled faintly.

He picked up the phone and pressed a string of familiar numbers.

Soon, my old friend Hu Chongxian heard the familiar voice from the receiver, and there was a lot of majesty in his heart: "Lao Xiong, why did you remember to call me at this time?"

"Tiger, let me tell you something, don't be excited, your son is here with me..." Xiong Jie briefly said the matter.

(About the name "tiger", some people make the sound of tiger, and some people make the sound of cat.)

Hu Chongxian fell silent on the other end of the phone. Xiong Jie did not ask questions. He knew that his old friend was thinking, let alone that it was someone else's family matter.

After a long time, Hu Chong asked first: "Xiao Tao... He is a policeman in your place. Didn't you open the back door for him?"

"How is that possible!" Xiong Jie was amused and crying: "Xiao Tao's current identity is just an auxiliary policeman. If you want to actually enter the police system, you must take the civil service exam. Having said that, your son is great. The auxiliary police recruitment exam is the first in both exams. It's hard for me to not accept him!"

"That's good." Hu Chongxian's tone on the phone was obviously eased than before: "Please help me watch, and the supervision of this kid must be strict."

Xiong Jie couldn't help but smile: "Tiger, look at what you said, this is your son, not our police officers in charge of prisoners. And I think Xiaotao is very outstanding, not like you said!"

Hu Chongxian's tone became serious again: "Anyway, just be with you. I won't talk about it during working hours."

He immediately hung up the phone.

Xiong Jie knew that his old friend had always had this kind of tough military style, but he didn't expect that the other party would hang up the phone when he said it. He was not mentally prepared for a while and was stunned for a long time while holding up the phone that made a busy voice, before slowly letting it go with a wry smile.

...

The next morning, Eryuan Road Police Station.

This is a "convex"-shaped courtyard. Three small buildings are the main buildings, with walls separated from the outside world. There are seven domestic police cars with different models of blue and white painted in the parking lot, as well as dozens of police motorcycles and electric vehicles.

The report time was nine o'clock, and Hu Pingtao walked into the police station gate half an hour in advance. The Gudu Branch hired more than 40 auxiliary police officers, five of whom were assigned here.

The police officer on duty took them into the small conference room. After checking their identities, the next step was a brief welcome ceremony. In fact, the police station leaders said a few words of encouragement to the newcomers and got to know each other by the way.

The morning was a busy time, and the director and instructor were still not here yet. The young man sitting next to him gently touched Hu Pingtao with his elbow and smiled: "I saw you during the exam. It took less than six minutes for the two-kilometer long-distance running. You graduated from a sports school, right?"

He was wearing a light sweatshirt, with black and shiny hair and high cheekbones. He looked very energetic. He was about twenty-five years old and had a very friendly smile on his face.

"Hello." Hu Pingtao stretched out his hand friendly: "My name is Hu Pingtao."

"My name is Wu Yonghan."

This conversation broke the dull atmosphere in the room, and the other three people joined in and got to know each other.

Li Pingbo is the oldest, thirty-five years old. He has sold insurance before and has stayed in an advertising company.

Zhang Chunliang is 31 years old. He doesn't talk much and only says that he used to be "business-related".

Liu Xiang was twenty-eight years old, very active and sweet-mouthed. Soon he became "Brother Zhang" and "Brother Li" kept calling.

Wu Yonghan is twenty-five years old. He has a household registration in a nearby urban village. He has a cheerful personality and is very compatible with Hu Pingtao.
