Yan Guanghui couldn't understand what he said and asked doubtfully: "Case? What do you mean?"

Hu Pingtao said solemnly: "Follow me back to the police station. When the time comes, we will distinguish personal issues, refund money and detain them, and handle them according to policies."

Ma Guangyi advised from the side: "Forget it, don't go to the police station. Let's reconcile, let's reconcile!"

Hu Pingtao stared at Yan Guanghui: "Then will you apologize?"

Yan Guanghui was unwilling to do so from the bottom of her heart.

She hesitated for a long time, turned her face away, and whispered angrily: "...I'm sorry."

Hu Pingtao turned back to Jiang Chenghong and asked, "What about you?"

Jiang Chenghong no longer wanted to stay here. His face was full of regret: "I have been arguing for a long time, but in the end there was no result. Forget it, forget it... The quarrel has delayed me a lot of things... Oh,

That's it! I'll also say I'm sorry to her."

Long Xu quickly handed over the transcript: "Since both of you have no objections, just sign it!"

…

On the way back to the office, Long Xu couldn't help but ask: "Boss, I see that you usually laugh and joke with everyone, and you can also make jokes. Aren't you the kind of person with a hot temper?"

Hu Pingtao glanced at him and said, "Why, do you think I'm too harsh today?"

Long Xu answered honestly: "Not just today, I have been to the police station to handle cases with you several times. I see that when you deal with civil disputes, you have a bad temper and you are often harsh on others."

Hu Pingtao sighed: "I was forced to do this."

As he spoke, he expressed his bitterness: "Think about it, with so many cases every day, we have to be busy non-stop just after a call from the command center. Sometimes the call comes in before the processing is finished here, and we have to rush out again.

Next place. If both parties involved keep chattering and insisting on their own opinions every time and refuse to give in, how can we mediate? How can we work? "

"Even the clay figures are quite angry. If I had tried it on someone else, it would have been a huge honor if I didn't scold him on the spot."

"With today's situation, how can we not get angry?"

"The woman named Yan has a fierce temper, and she looks like the kind of person who regards quarreling and scolding as part of her daily life. As for the things she said, about menstrual sanitary napkins, how many women do you think can say it in public?

?”

"So when you encounter this kind of situation, you can't reason with Yan Yuese. Again: How to say it depends on the person. Is it okay to be reasonable with this woman? Definitely not! If you don't keep a straight face, how can you be cruel to her?

In other words, let her know how powerful the carriage, horse and artillery are, and she won’t be able to explain this matter clearly even if we argue until dark.”

"There are many similar situations... Can I have a good temper? Can I not be cruel?"

"Some people are like this. You have to scold them a few times before they become honest. Once you lose momentum, they can sit on your head and shit."

After a pause, Hu Pingtao softened his tone: "Of course, how to do it depends on the person."

Long Xu joked: "I see you are very gentle when talking to your wife on the phone."

Hu Pingtao rolled his eyes at him: "Can it be the same?"

Cui Wen also joked from the side: "Boss, when will you be gentle to us?"

Hu Pingtao said angrily: "Okay! You will stay in the office after I go back today, so there is no need to go to work."

Cui Wen was quite surprised: "Really?"

Hu Pingtao smiled evilly: "From today on, you will be responsible for cleaning the toilets, canteens and dormitories. All the logistics and hygiene will be left to you alone. How about it, am I gentle enough?"

Cui Wen shut his mouth and did not dare to speak.

…

In the afternoon, I received a call from Sun Jie.

He was very polite and exchanged pleasantries for a while before getting to the point: "Director Hu, are you free on the weekend? I would like to have a dinner with you."

"Eat?" Hu Pingtao was stunned. Of course there is no problem with eating, but after all, he and Sun Jie are not very familiar with each other. They have met a few times when handling cases.

Degree of "friend".

He was silent here, while Sun Jie was uneasy on the other end of the phone and asked again: "How are you? Are you free?"

Hu Pingtao came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and asked: "Is it the weekend? Saturday or Sunday?"

"How about Sunday? There is a fish restaurant in the south of the city. It tastes very good." Sun Jie was very cautious in both his tone and the way he spoke.

"Okay!" Hu Pingtao answered readily: "You can send me your location on WeChat later. Thank you."

…

At six o'clock in the afternoon on Sunday, Hu Pingtao went as scheduled.

As the saying goes: laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the door. The position of the police station director may seem ordinary, but in fact he has great power. With the reform within the system, many organizations have been streamlined in succession, and all public security powers have been concentrated in grassroots units. It is no exaggeration to say that

, a police station chief is the person in charge of public security in the area, and to a certain extent he can keep his promise.

Even the leaders of the branch and even the municipal bureau are far less effective than the police station chief in handling specific affairs. For example, although Kong Weiyun is the director of the district bureau, the people below may not listen to him when it comes to handling a certain case.

, and would even blame each other, just dragging on and on. But as long as Hu Pingtao spoke, the entire Eryuanlu Police Station immediately started to operate like an efficient machine. No one dared to be lazy, and no one dared to violate the rules.

Regarding the fact that Sun Jie suddenly invited him to dinner without warning, Hu Pingtao estimated that the other party was in trouble and wanted something from him.

Hu Pingtao doesn't just agree to anyone's invitation to dinner. The current system is very strict, especially when it comes to inviting people to eat. There are prohibitions. You can't go to places that exceed the standard, and there are also restrictions on specifications. In the spirit of doing more, doing less is better.

Hu Pingtao usually refused a large number of such invitations.

It's no exaggeration to say that if you want, even if you have breakfast and lunch every day, you don't have to worry about Hu Pingtao "treating guests to dinner" every month. Many people are eager to get to know him.

I want to have a relationship with him.

Just say smoking! Once, he helped a tobacco and alcohol merchant resolve a civil dispute. In order to thank him, the other party brought a box of "soft treasures" to the police station, but Hu Pingtao refused on the spot.

It involved counterfeit cigarette fraud. Hu Pingtao helped a tobacco and alcohol merchant recover a loss of more than 300,000 yuan. But for the word "thank you", no gifts can be accepted.

But Sun Jie is different.

Hu Pingtao never thought of accepting Sun Jie's gift.

His idea is simple and direct - to get to know Sun Jie, strengthen mutual contact and gain a deeper understanding.

Sun Jie is an expert in neurosurgery and the chief physician of the First Municipal Hospital.

Everyone has to face life, old age, illness and death. If you have a doctor friend, it will be much more convenient in the hospital in the future.

This is a normal human relationship and has nothing to do with "violations" or anything like that.

According to the address given by Sun Jie on WeChat, Hu Pingtao walked into the private room of Yuzhuang.

There were only two people in the room: Sun Jie, and a middle-aged woman of similar age to him.

Seeing Hu Pingtao come in, Sun Jie quickly stood up from his chair, raised his finger and pointed at him, and said with a smile: "Let me introduce, this is Director Hu from the Eryuan Road Police Station."

He then turned sideways and pointed at the middle-aged woman standing beside him: "This is Dr. Meng Lirong, the gynecologist in our hospital."

Hu Pingtao smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Meng Lirong's hand gently.

The three of them sat down respectively. Although they had learned from Sun Jie that Hu Pingtao was very young, Meng Lirong was still surprised to see the real person now.

"Director Tiger is too young." Meng Lirong said seriously: "Several of my classmates are also police officers, some are working as full-time officers, and some are working as police station chiefs in local and prefectures, but they are all over forty years old."

Hu Pingtao smiled modestly: "Haha, I am not young anymore. I am already the father of two children."

Looking around, he asked Sun Jie doubtfully: "Doctor Sun, is there anyone else?"

Sun Jie smiled and said: "No, just the three of us."

Hu Pingtao said "Oh" thoughtfully and said politely: "Since there are few people, there is no need to have such a big private room! How about we change to a smaller place?"

Sun Jie explained: "The private rooms here are just like this. Well, I've already ordered the food, shall we let them serve it now?"

Hu Pingtao nodded: "Okay, you figure it out."

Meng Lirong bent down and picked up a box from under her feet, and said with a smile: "I brought a bottle of Xifeng, which should be enough for the three of us!"

Hu Pingtao quickly waved his hand and refused: "Forget it if you drink. We have a ban and you can't drink."

Meng Lirong persuaded with a smile: "Today is the weekend, where can my friends not drink while eating?"

Sun Jie was also advising beside him: "Yes! I just wanted to drink some wine today, so I didn't drive here. Director Hu, how about you drink less?"

Hu Pingtao smiled and shook his head: "It's really not possible. I didn't lie to you, and I didn't mean to shirk it. The superiors strictly inspected it. It's okay for us to have a meal and not drink wine."

"I'll invite you if I have the chance another day, really." He spoke sincerely.

Seeing this, Sun Jie turned sideways and said to Meng Lilong: "Director Hu is very straightforward and will not do one thing before others and another after others. Since he said so, we won't drink. Anyway, there are many opportunities, let's talk about it later."

"

Meng Lirong did not insist: "Okay, I'll let them make a pot of good tea. Let's use tea instead of wine. Is that okay?"

Hu Pingtao smiled and cupped his hands: "Okay, okay, thank you Dr. Meng."
