"Sending off comrades, treading the journey..."

A group of police academy students stood on the playground, singing "Sending off Comrades" in front of Qu Yaming's portrait. Qu Yaming's memorial service was held on the police academy's playground.

For this student who had not yet completed his training, the other students felt a myriad of emotions, and at the same time, they gained a clearer understanding of the police profession.

Today's society is complex and volatile, and the atmosphere is much harsher than it was a dozen years ago. Moreover, with the increase in people's legal awareness, various cases and disputes have rapidly increased. More importantly, a seemingly insignificant small case can often be life-threatening.

In short, being a police officer is not easy.

The day after the memorial service, the school, under the organization of the provincial public security system, held a commendation meeting. Li Xiangdong, without a doubt, became the most outstanding hero at this commendation meeting.

Just after leaving the school, he encountered such a major case, engaging in a firefight with criminals on the street. He remained calm in the face of danger, exchanged fire with drug dealers several times, saved his teammates multiple times, and finally, single-handedly killed three criminals. If such a person cannot be called a hero, then what can?

Most importantly, dozens of kilograms of heroin and over a million in cash were found on the small truck. This was the main reason why the criminals fought so desperately to turn back. All of this meant a great achievement.

Of course, to better distribute the credit, many "kills" were attributed to others, such as Wei Zhong, An Jianing, Hu Ying, and the deceased Qu Yaming.

After all, if all the credit were given to Li Xiangdong alone, it would inevitably attract too much attention. Moreover, such a big case should also give some credit to others, especially a martyr who had already sacrificed.

Anyway, almost everyone who participated in the case received credit, except for Yang Feng.

Wei Zhongheng went all out this time. After returning, he didn't give any face to the son of the organization minister. On the battlefield, he was cowardly and dragged his teammates down, and in the end, he even leaked information to the drug dealers out of jealousy and envy.

These accusations left the Yang family in a very awkward position. They had originally hoped to use this opportunity for a collective first-class merit to secure some credit for their son. These achievements would be recorded in his file, which would greatly benefit his future career.

But who would have thought that not only did he not get any credit, but he also ended up with a bad reputation, which made Minister Yang furious.

Wei Zhongheng from the narcotics squad, for some reason, was completely unyielding. He directly exposed his son's behavior on the battlefield and even gave him the worst evaluation.

When Wei Zhongheng's post-incident report was submitted, it caused a huge uproar. Deputy Director Lei of the Municipal Bureau slammed the table, scolding Wei Zhongheng for being disorganized and undisciplined, and demanded that he rewrite the report or be suspended.

Wei Zhongheng, who came from the narcotics squad, was not just under the Public Security Bureau. Due to the special nature of their work, they didn't care about anyone except the director. How could they care about Deputy Director Lei, who came from a political background and was known for flattering superiors?

Wei Zhongheng immediately stiffened his neck and said, "Suspend me or fire me, but I won't rewrite the report."

When Wei Zhongheng flipped his lid, the narcotics squad exploded. "We risk our lives fighting drug dealers, and all the credit goes to you leaders. We can't even show our faces. This time, we lost four brothers, and now a deputy director is turning against us for some Minister Yang?"

The narcotics squad went on strike, and Director Jing was also furious. At the Municipal Bureau's standing committee meeting, he slammed the table in front of Deputy Director Lei. In the end, Deputy Director Lei had to personally apologize to Wei Zhongheng and invite him back, which finally calmed the situation.

This incident not only disgraced the Yang family but also almost cost Yang Feng a good job.

Although there were no shortage of people in the Public Security Bureau who were willing to flatter Minister Yang, no one wanted to hire someone who couldn't be relied on in a crisis and even betrayed his teammates. After all, who knew if he would pretend to be dead or betray his teammates in the next dangerous operation?

So, Yang Feng's reputation was completely ruined. In the end, Minister Yang had no choice but to arrange for him to go to the Beilun Detention Center in the city to work as a prison guard, with the hope of finding a better position later.

This time, not only did Li Xiangdong and his team receive a collective first-class merit, but he also received the title of model hero in the public security system. Although these honors didn't come with any practical rewards, they provided a very good start for his future police career.

For example, he chose to stay in the Huanghai Municipal Bureau. Generally, police academy students, even after passing the judicial examination and joining the Public Security Bureau, would only be probationary officers in their first year. After the first year, they would become second-level officers, and then after another year, they would become first-level officers. By the third year, if there were no mistakes, they would become third-level inspectors, and it would take another five to eight years to become a third-level superintendent.

However, Li Xiangdong, upon joining the unit, was already a third-level inspector, which was three years ahead of others. On one hand, the Municipal Bureau adopted a special recruitment process to retain this talent. On the other hand, his first-class merit this time and his third-class merit for "fire rescue" last time, along with his impressive resume, earned him this special treatment.

On the stage, Principal Hao stood in front of him, pinned the one-bar and one-star shoulder badge on his shoulder, and patted his shoulder hard.

"Good boy, work hard, and don't disgrace your grandfather, your father, and the Li family!"

"Yes, Principal!"

Li Xiangdong stood at attention and gave Hao Rentong a solemn police salute. At that moment, the old police inspector with gray hair and a one-bar and three-star shoulder badge straightened his back and returned the salute.

"Through storms and seasons, through wind, frost, and snow, we fight the rapids, enduring hardships and remaining steadfast, the young man's ambition knows no bounds, the golden shield, forged with blood, shows its prowess in times of need..."

The song "The Young Man's Ambition Knows No Bounds" echoed from the stage to the audience, growing louder. At that moment, Li Xiangdong seemed to understand the meaning of the golden shield on his head and the one-bar and one-star on his shoulder...
