After Being Reborn, I Tortured The Vicious Sister-in-law Chapter 255

255 For Dad

Lu Bai suddenly realized that he had a lot of missions recently. It was several times more than before, and he didn't even have time to rest. Basically, the last mission was just barely completed, and the next mission came.

The key was that every time his mission location was far away, it was as if… Someone deliberately wanted to transfer him away from here.

The recent assignment was very strange. After all, Lu Bai was a police officer himself, and he was the best at detection. Therefore, he soon realized that something was wrong.

He asked tentatively, “Captain Chen, what's going on? Why have we received so many cases recently, and all of them are from so far away? Did you deliberately take on so many cases just to get a promotion?”

Although he asked this question, he knew clearly in his heart that he, as a leader, had worked hard for most of his life to get to this position. It was basically set in stone. He would not be promoted anymore because he was almost at the age of retirement, it was unlikely that he would take on missions continuously just to get a promotion. Of course, he was not that kind of person.

Facing Lu Bai's doubts, Captain Chen laughed awkwardly. Then, he explained, “How can that be? Isn't it because you can solve cases perfectly every time and solve a few cases that have been shelved for more than ten years? The higher-ups see that you are capable and give you a chance to train. Well, the higher-ups said that if you can solve this case well this time, they will give you a promotion.”

Lu Bai frowned and said, “A promotion? Isn't that your position?”

The leader on the other end of the line laughed dryly and said, “Yes, it's my position. Due to my old age, my body isn't working well, so I can't continue to hold this position. The higher-ups have taken a liking to you, so they recently let you take on a few more cases. Once you've settled all of them, you'll immediately be promoted and get a raise. As for me, I'll be going behind the scenes.”

“Cough, cough.” The leader coughed twice. He continued, “Xiao Lu, your future is simply limitless. You're still young, yet you're not even thirty years old, yet you've already reached a height that many people would never be able to reach even if they worked hard for their entire lives. I fought for this position with my life back then, and it took me more than half of my life to get it.”

“But you, at such a young age, already have a body full of battle achievements. These honors were all earned by you alone. It has nothing to do with your grandfather and father. The higher-ups all think highly of you, so they hope that you can continue to work hard in the future. You should know that what you have now is something that others will not be able to catch up with even if they work hard for more than half of their lives.”

Facing the praise of the leader, Lu Bai did not have much of a reaction. He was still thinking about his new mission. He asked in puzzlement, “But what does this have to do with the mission I took on this time?”

Captain Chen explained, “Silly boy, you were so smart when you were handling the case. Why are you so silly now? Didn't I say that I would assign you many cases in the near future? As long as you complete them well, you will be promoted and get a raise immediately after you finish them! I know that you don't care about money, but you care about the position, right? After all…”

The voice on the other end of the phone paused, then, he continued, “When your position reaches a certain level, you can take over your father's case. I know that you haven't let go of it. This is why you became a police officer.”

Hearing that it was about his father's case, Lu Bai lowered his eyes and didn't answer for a moment.

Captain Chen knew what Lu Bai cared about the most, so he used this matter to persuade him.

Although that was what he said, the real reason was not like that. Captain Chen sighed in his heart. He did not know which big boss Lu Bai had offended. Every time there was a mission, he would ask Lu Bai to complete it. He had inquired about it, but the results were not very useful.

He only knew one thing, and that was that the big boss had a very strong background. For some reason, he suddenly took a fancy to Lu Bai in the name of training him. Even though that was what he said, who knew if it was because Lu Bai had worked on a case and offended the person behind it, and that person happened to be their big leader, so he secretly dealt with Lu Bai?

Regardless of the reason, Captain Chen really wanted to complain because Lu Bai had been so busy recently that he had not gone home. He had either stayed at the crime scene all night to investigate the case, or stayed in the file room for an entire day without much rest. Nobody could withstand such torture.

However, no matter how much his heart ached, he did not dare to refute the words passed down from the higher-ups. After all, he still had a family to support himself. He could not lose his job.

The persuasion was indeed effective. After a few seconds of silence, Lu Bai agreed, “Okay, I'll go.”
