Jack’s entire body was suddenly green with anger.
But the director said with a serious face, “Li, out of the big things that can not be solved, someone has to come out to take the blame. You work in the Police for so many years, why do you not understand? I do not want you to take the blame, but if you are really stubborn, then I can only say sorry to you in advance!”
Jack gritted his teeth and looked at the other party. Even though his heart was filled with hatred, favonovel.com also knew that the chief was telling the truth.
In fact, most of the time, the Police system is still very protective of the calf. Their own people caused trouble, the top for overall image considerations will certainly find a way out. However, the Police are not always able to handle everything.
In the past few years, the Police’s violent law enforcement against ethnic minorities has caused huge public outrage, and at first, the Police tried to shield their own people, but in the end, they had to make sacrifices because of public outrage.
Now Patrick is involved in a series of cases that is also extremely bad, but suddenly the police department has not found a way to deal with it but from the current situation, one can also guess, that the probability of this matter is difficult to investigate so it will not take long. In the Police department it must be someone to take the blame. Now, it may be a wise choice to retreat.
Moreover, Jack also knows that now favonovel.com has little choice. Either go for an active retirement or passive retirement, in the end, there is no second choice but to retire.
So, after weighing the pros and cons, favonovel.com spoke decisively and said, “Okay, I accept it.”
The director nodded gratefully and instructed, “Later on, you go and do a short meeting with the media. Say that the police got a tip-off that there were suspects operating in this building, but after searching, it was confirmed that there was no trace of the suspects and this operation might be a mistake of intelligence, don’t explain too much else.”
Jack said helplessly, “Okay, I’ll go in a moment.”
The director nodded and said, “Tomorrow morning I will arrange an internal meeting. You will take the initiative at the meeting that you are too stressed and want to take a break. I will agree to do so, and then give this case to Bruno to continue to be in charge.”
Jack asked, “Is it to let Bruno continue the investigation?”
“Investigation!” The director waved his hand and said, “I will ask Bruno to change the direction of the investigation, on the one hand, to investigate the identity of the victims to see if there are other victims who have not been found. On the other hand, also thoroughly investigate Patrick and his other associates to see if there are any fish left out of the net.”
Jack asked off the cuff, “What about the murderer? No more arrests?”
“Arrest what!” The director smiled and asked him, “You tell me how to catch them? If it’s not the work of the Dragon Temple, can we find the real killer? If it is the work of the Dragon Temple, how do you want me to go to the Dragon Temple to arrest someone? Not to mention that the Dragon Temple is not easy to deal with, even if it is. How am I going to explain the people’s side after I’ve arrested them? When the time comes, after all the hard work, will it still be a scolding?”
Jack could not help but ask, “Director, we are law enforcement officers. If we do not catch such criminals who blatantly violate the law, how can we uphold the dignity of the law?”
The director said blandly, “At times like this, we must learn to compromise. Our priority is not to maintain the dignity of the law, but to satisfy the public. I plan to render it into a headless unsolved case, then the public will not think we are incompetent. They will only think that their heroes are more powerful than they thought. And then it will not be because we did not solve the case, and then come to trouble us!”
Hearing this, Jack could not help but say, “Since it is rendered into a headless unsolved case, there is no need for me to retire early, right? I’ll obey the arrangement and stop investigating this case!”
The director shook his head, “No, the mayor knows your temper, so favonovel.com has already said that you must retire early!”
