------------------

Lu Ming was not surprised by Zhang Dingshan's decision.

This is the advantage of the investigation team of the Planetary Security Bureau Operations Division with extremely high authority and the ability to mobilize huge amounts of materials and personnel.

To say that in the past, the world government has never relaxed its crackdown on various illegal god worship organizations.But again, the total resources are limited, and it is impossible for the world government to spend too much resources to deal with illegal god worship organizations.

If all the resources are used to deal with illegal god worship organizations, can other things be done?Will the bridge be repaired, the railway be paved, and law and order maintained?
It's just an illegal god worship organization, and its priority is not that high.

But now, since it has entered the field of vision of the second action team, it has been involved with some kind of supernatural force, and it involves the suspicion of self-preparation of Lewisite, its priority is of course higher than before.It is justifiable for the second operation team to mobilize resources and manpower.

The specific process is naturally operated by Lu Qingliang.How to use these powers to achieve the goal, Lu Ming has also received a lot of training in the past period of time, and he has a bottom line in his mind.

He is no longer a rookie.At this moment, Zhang Dingshan can feel relieved to put some responsibilities on him.

After Zhang Dingshan made a decision, several people responded at the same time.After that, the video conference will end.

In Haiye City, in the hotel, Lu Ming closed his computer and took out his phone.

He originally wanted to call Lin Shen, but after thinking about it, he decided to go to the store.

It is evening now.When I arrived at the food stall, I saw some customers already sitting in the store.Lin Shen was busy greeting each other.

He had a Band-Aid on his forehead, and he couldn't walk fast, with a slight limp.

That's because he accidentally stepped on a brick, lost his footing, sprained his foot, fell to the ground and bumped his head again.

This kind of thing is common in Lin Shen.During the period of jointly managing the seafood stall with Lin Shen, Lu Ming has long been used to it.

Lu Ming stopped the electric car and walked over.

"Ah Shen, how are you doing now, do your feet still hurt?"

When Ah Shen saw Lu Ming, he stopped, wiped the sweat off his face, and said with a simple smile, "Brother Lu, I'm fine, I don't feel any pain anymore."

Next to him, the newly recruited waiter girl smiled and said, "Brother Lu, Ah Shen is so unlucky, he got his finger pinched by a crab just now, hahahaha!"

Lin Shen chuckled and said, "It's okay, if you tell Lao Lin to make that crab better, you'll take revenge on me."

"Boss, serve the cold dishes first!"

"Hey! Here we come."

Lin Shen limped and walked away quickly.

Lu Ming walked into the stall, put on an apron with "A Ming Seafood Food Stall" written on it, and began to greet customers.

This has been busy until late at night, and the last table of guests left.After packing up the things, the cooks, waiters, etc. also left.Once again, only Lu Ming and Lin Shen were left in the stall.

"Ah Shen, I have to go back to my hometown tomorrow. I have something to do. I'm not sure when I will come back. It may take a week at the shortest time, and it may take a month if it is slow. During this time, you will greet yourself in the store first."

"Okay, no problem, don't worry, Brother Lu."

At this moment, the seafood shop is already on the right track, and it is going step by step every day.Now that things have developed, Lu Ming feels that it is difficult to get more clues from Lin Shen.

He has already decided that from now on, he will try to get out of the store management and slowly transfer the management rights of the store to Lin Shen.

After all, it is impossible for Lu Ming to really go into the seafood food stall business.When this case is over and there is a result—whether it is a good result or a bad result, this seafood stall will eventually belong to Lin Shen.

"Brother Lu hasn't eaten yet, right? I'm going to get something to eat, and eat together?"

Lu Ming looked at the tired Lin Shen who was still dragging a "lame leg", smiled and shook his head: "Eat by yourself, I'll go first."

"That's fine. Well, Brother Lu, don't worry. I'll call you if there's anything to do."

An hour later, Lu Ming appeared on the plane.

Amidst the roar, the plane quickly flew into the sky.Looking at the brightly lit Haiye City, Lu Ming felt a little worried.

He had a vague feeling that Lu Ming's luck had gotten worse and worse recently.

Previously, since it was confirmed that there was some abnormality in Lin Shen's luck, the monitoring of Lin Shen had been withdrawn.So at this moment, Lu Ming doesn't have a clear numerical value to measure Lin Shen's luck during this period of time.But relying solely on subjective feelings, Lu Ming did feel that Lin Shen's luck was getting worse and worse, even worse than before.

All kinds of small accidents, all kinds of troubles emerge one after another.To some extent, it even affected the turnover of the store.

Lu Ming knew that Lin Shen was also aware of this.During this period of time, Lin Shen has worked harder and paid more attention to store management, probably out of a mentality of fear that he will drive him away.

"It's better to call someone again and continue to monitor him for a period of time to confirm whether his luck has really gotten worse."

Lu Ming rubbed his temples and finally made a decision.

"I hope it's just my illusion. If Lin Shen's luck really gets worse, then...will it be worse than it is now? If it's just a sprained foot, a fall, and a small rub , then... what will happen if you have worse luck than now? Will it be life-threatening?"

Life is tough and fragile.Some people fell from the plane and survived, and some people lost their lives with a slight fall.

It is not uncommon for people to choke to death when eating and drinking.

"It is still necessary to solve the problem fundamentally. I hope this time we can gain something."

Lu Ming did not join Zhang Dingshan and He Wei, but came directly to Shanbei City.

According to the previous investigation information, the headquarters of the Destiny Sect headed by Lu Ming is likely to be in Shanbei City or its surrounding areas.The Shanbei City Public Security Bureau even kept a team dedicated to investigating cases related to the Destiny Sect.

When they came to the Public Security Bureau, they met with relevant people and made handovers. This team of security officers who specialized in dealing with the Destiny Sect was put under the control of Lu Ming for the time being.

This is a fairly lean team, but not many.Counting the clerical and logistics, there are only 18 people, and the entire team can only mobilize two old cars.And I heard that the gas fee has not been reimbursed for four months. During this time, the captain Zhou Chang has been subsidizing it out of his own pocket.

There was no way, the bureau was short of funds, and the limited funds had to be used for important tasks first, and other teams responsible for relatively less important matters were all delayed, not only Zhou Chang's team.

At this moment, Zhou Chang, who was tall, more than 1.9 meters tall, black and fat, weighed 240 kilograms, and had a somewhat overworked temperament, hurried to the Public Security Bureau in his own miniature golf.

After parking the car, opened the door, and got out of the car, the body of the car was immediately lifted several centimeters.

"Team Week."

"Isn't Team Zhou resting today? Why are you in the game again?"

Greeting casually, Zhou Chang hurried to the superior's office.

He saw a fair-skinned young man who was about 20 years old and even had a bookish look on his body.

Seeing Zhou Chang coming in, the superior stood up immediately: "Zhou Chang, you came just in time. Let me introduce you, this is the case handling commissioner sent by the superior, Sergeant Lu Minglu. This is our Public Security Bureau who has been in charge of cracking down on the Destiny Sect. The captain of the illegal god worship organization, Zhou Chang."

"Hello."

"Hello."

The two shook hands, and the superior continued: "The existing evidence shows that the illegal god worship organization of the Destiny Sect is involved in some extremely serious cases. The superior has decided to uproot this illegal god worship organization and wipe it out completely. Lu Ming Comrade was specially sent by the superior to take charge of this matter. Zhou Chang, you must cooperate well with Comrade Lu Ming."

Zhou Chang was taken aback when he heard the words, but now he couldn't say anything else, so he could only obediently agree, and after sending Lu Ming out first, Zhou Chang immediately returned to the office.

"Leader, what's the matter? How could the superior send such a boy to preside over this case? The superior doesn't know, but you don't know the leader? The followers of the Destiny sect are inhumane. Didn't there be illegal gods in the past two years?" Worship organizers burning children to death in the street? Uprooting? It’s so easy to say, don’t make this little boy cry when the illegal god worship organizers haven’t seen it.”

As he said that, the leader couldn't answer, so he said to himself: "Could it be for gold plating?"

The superior's face darkened unconsciously.Hearing Zhou Chang's words, he slapped the table even more angrily.

"Zhou Chang, what nonsense are you talking about! You are the only one who is smart, right? How dare you look down on someone specially sent by the superior? Zhou Chang, I warn you, cooperate well, if you are caught , I can't keep you either! Get out!"

Being scolded by his superiors, Zhou Chang wanted to distinguish a few more words, but he didn't dare to, so he walked out of the office angrily, having made up his mind.

"I'll say a few words to that little boy first, to frighten him, to let him know that cracking down on illegal god worship organizations is not a child's play, it's bloody. It's best to scare him away, not scare him away , at least don't make trouble for me."

When I came to the meeting room, I saw that the other 17 people in the team had already arrived, only myself was missing.The little boy named Lu Ming sat solemnly at the top of the conference table, flipping through some files.

He pulled up a chair at random and sat down.

Lu Ming raised his head when he heard the sound.Seeing the last person coming, he cleared his throat.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's start the meeting."

Zhou Chang was silent.

Lu Ming got straight to the point and said directly: "Everyone is most familiar with the illegal god worship organization of the Destiny Sect, and now the superior has an order to uproot this illegal god worship organization. This matter still depends on everyone to do it. "

Zhou Chang lowered his arms crossing his chest, and hummed in his heart: "I still have self-knowledge."

"I tell you clearly that it is taboo for an outsider to command an insider. I am not familiar with the Destiny Sect, and I have no experience in cracking down on illegal god worship organizations, so I will not express my opinion on how to do this operation. Everything depends on Captain Zhou Chang. The order shall prevail."

Ok?
Zhou Chang was slightly surprised, and his impression of Lu Ming was slightly better.

His attitude became a little more serious: "Sheriff Lu, the Destiny Sect has a long history, and there are quite a few followers who have developed secretly. It is easy to attack, but it is difficult to uproot."

Lu Ming nodded: "This is the third point I want to say. The third point is that I don't participate in combat, I am only in charge of logistics. Captain Zhou Chang, what is needed to complete this task, even if you put forward conditions, I will I'll do it for you."

Zhou Chang was startled, and the last sliver of contempt for Lu Ming in his heart disappeared.

Lu Ming stared at Zhou Chang closely, his gaze was full of unparalleled confidence, completely suppressing Zhou Chang's aura.

"I meet all your conditions, and then you give me the result. As for how you do it, I don't care. If you can't get the result even like this, then you can't blame me, right? You Zhou Chang will do it yourself." Tell your superiors."

An invisible pressure came to Zhou Chang.Zhou Chang stood up involuntarily, and saluted Lu Ming with a snap: "I promise to complete the task!"

The rest of the people who were originally relaxed also became serious at this moment, not daring to make any irrelevant noises.

"Sit down. Now, make your terms."

Zhou Chang sat in his seat, thought for a while, and then tentatively said: "Comrades handle the case, the logistics must be better, right? There are only two broken cars in the team, and the gas bill has not been reported for several months. I paid for it all out of my own pocket, this..."

Lu Ming said indifferently: "I'll transfer ten cars for the use of the team. All vehicle usage expenses, bring the invoice, and report it immediately."

Zhou Chang cheered up: "The Destiny sect is involved, there are many suspects, and there are many files. I'm afraid comrades have to work overtime continuously. This... can't let comrades handle the case hungry?"

"How did you do it before?"

Zhou Chang resentfully said, "I'll buy instant noodles for myself, what else can I do?"

Lu Ming waved his hand: "I've already discussed with your bureau. I'll book the cafeteria next to the Public Security Bureau for you. It's open 24 hours a day. It has everything you want to eat.

The meal standard for each person is 100 yuan.But for large-scale purchases, the cafeteria has to make concessions. I have already negotiated with them, and they will supply them at the market price of 150 per person. "

As if a bomb exploded out of thin air, everyone in the meeting room raised their heads in shock.

That cafeteria is not cheap, and the grade is also high. Usually, it costs more than 100 yuan to go in alone.There are snacks from all over the place, all kinds of meat, seafood, everything.

Now, this little boy... No, it's Sergeant Lu. In one word, Sergeant Lu took care of that?

open 24 hours?Eat on the go?

"If you're free and want to eat something fresh, go to the store to eat it. If you're not free, ask them to deliver food."

At this moment, Zhou Chang already had some awe in his heart, and he became more careful when speaking.

"Lu... Sheriff Lu, that cafeteria is not small. It is said that it can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time... Just us, the whole shop is occupied, this..."

　It's the last day of 2022. I wish everyone can keep all the bad luck in this year and bring all the good luck to the new year. Starting from tomorrow, in the new year, good luck will always be with you and everything goes well !
In addition, it's the last day, please ask for a monthly pass, if you don't vote, it will be a waste...
