Roll call was taking place on the training field; the assistant officers were lining up in queues according to the ten bureaus.
When Chen Mo passed by the Gui Water Bureau, everyone crowded around him.
"Boss!"
"Mr. Chen!"
Looking at those familiar faces, with a rather somber air pressure, Chen Mo shook his head and said, "It’s just a transfer to another government office. Why make it seem like a life-and-death farewell?"
The crowd fell silent.
"Alright, Liu Mang, do your job well."
Chen Mo patted Liu Mang on the shoulder.
He was transferred to the Ding Fire Department to fill the vacancy left by Chu Zhuo, while Liu Mang was promoted to the General and temporarily took charge of the Gui Water Bureau business.
This man of few words was strong both in personal strength and in his capacity to handle affairs. With some accumulated merits and seasoned experience, there was a great chance for him to rise to the position of a Hundred Household Officer.
Liu Mang said in a muffled voice, "Boss, you will always be the boss."
At this moment, Shen Shuqiu approached with a somewhat gloomy expression.
Chen Mo’s transfer to the Ding Fire Department had caught everyone by surprise.
Mr. Yun flipped the table directly in the Qilin Pavilion, pointing at the nose of the Fire Department Thousand Households and accusing him of abusing power for personal gain. If the other Thousand Households officers hadn’t desperately stopped him, there might have been bloodshed on the spot.
In the end, the matter even reached the Commander, only to receive a dismissive response—
Eastern Palace Decree.
"The Empress actually intervened in the affairs of the bureau without regard for her dignity?"
What worried Shen most was not that the Gui Water Bureau was losing a pillar but that Chen Mo had no foundation in the Fire Department. Once there, he would likely face resistance, making his days difficult.
Chen Mo gave a formal salute, "Congratulations to Lord Shen on your promotion."
Shen Shuqiu showed no joy but frowned and said, "Chen Mo, this is arranged by those above us. Mr. Yun...he..."
Chen Mo smiled, "No worries, I’m well aware."
Seeing his carefree attitude, Shen Shuqiu looked helpless and said, "You have no backing there, take a few men from the bureau with you. It will make handling affairs more convenient."
"If they dare to bully you, come and find me. Mr. Yun will undoubtedly back you up."
The Sky Scale Guard was quite unstable recently, making it difficult to pull strings; they could only wait until the situation stabilized before finding a way to bring Chen Mo back.
"As for taking people with me..."
Chen Mo pondered for a moment and only took Qin Shou with him.
After all, Liu Mang had just taken office, and this was exactly the time when he needed people.
...
Chen Mo walked towards the Ding Huosi Office with his hands clasped behind his back.
The short and pudgy Qin Shou, trotting along behind him, asked with a grin, "Boss, did you choose me because I’m efficient and the most valued subordinate?"
Chen Mo said indifferently, "Not so, rather because standing beside me, you’ll make me appear particularly handsome and martially formidable."
Qin Shou: "..."
Upon arriving at the Ding Huosi Office.
Qiu Longgang was lecturing with his hands on his waist, his shrill voice echoing through the air:
"One by one looking so listless, perk up! Later, follow my instructions when we act..."
Qin Shou couldn’t help but shiver, murmuring softly, "This Fire Department has a heavy, gloomy atmosphere..."
"Huh?"
Despite the quietness of Qin Shou’s voice, it didn’t escape the ears of a fifth-grade Martial Artist.
Qiu Longgang turned his head to see the two men, his expression turning cold, and he sent out a palm strike!
True Yuan coalesced in the air, forming an ominous dark cloud above!
He showed no mercy!
