Los Angeles Detective Chapter 178

  Chapter 178 Presentation Ceremony

   Luke rested at home for three days.

   Returning to the police station is already full.

  Today the police department is very different, the number of people wearing police uniforms has increased significantly.

  Although Luke didn't put on the police uniform directly, there was also a folded police uniform in his bag.

  Today is the day for awarding medals!

  As soon as he arrived at the office, Luke found that Xiao Hei was very stinky and wearing a neat police uniform.

  Xiao Hei pointed to the police uniform and asked, "What do you think of me wearing a police uniform? I haven't worn a police uniform for a long time."

   David laughed, "You should walk around the police station in a police uniform, so that everyone knows that you are going to attend the award ceremony."

   "Good idea, what do you guys think if I go to the Publicity Department first? There are more girls there.

  David “…”

  The little black fart walked away.

  Jenny shook her head, "Sure enough, he is still him, he has never changed."

  The deputy team laughed, "The fastest way to get out of a relationship is to start a new relationship."

   From a certain point of view, Xiao Hei's approach is correct.

   Jenny rolled her eyes, secretly thinking that she finally understands why you have been divorced so many times.

  Luke's cell phone rang, and he took out the cell phone and saw that it was Lawrence's number.

   After hesitating for a while, he still answered, "Hello."

   "Luke, this is Lawrence."

   "Hi, what's the matter?"

   "I asked you something last night, remember?"

   "Last night..." Luke paused, as if thinking, "Oh, I remembered, the two of us drank together last night, and you got me drunk.

   Didn't see it, you're not too young to drink. "

  Lawrence started to curse in his heart, is that me feeding you? It is you who are feeding yourself.

   "You should still remember what I told you last night."

   "What did you say?"

  Lawrence reminded, "It's Gordon's business, Gordon's lawsuit."

   "Gordon? The guy who plays basketball in the NBA?"

  Lawrence was stunned, "Is there anyone named Gordon in the NBA?"

   "It seems so, what's the matter? Do you want to invite me to watch the NBA?"

   "No, I didn't ask you to watch basketball together." Lawrence was a little speechless, "Do you have time tonight? Let's talk about it."

   "Sorry, not tonight, the police station has activities. I guess I have to work overtime tonight."

   "Then when do you have time..."

   Before Lawrence finished speaking, Luke interrupted him, "Sorry, our captain is calling me, let's talk another day."

   After finishing speaking, Luke hung up the phone.

   "Deputy team, you have been married so many times, how do you deal with your father-in-law?"

  The deputy team raised an eyebrow, "Are you sure you want to know?"

"certainly."

   "We don't meet many times, maybe once or twice a year, and usually send a bouquet of flowers."

  Luke "…"

   After one o'clock in the afternoon.

  At the Los Angeles Convention Center, police cars drove into the parking lot of the venue one after another.

  At two o'clock in the afternoon, the medal awarding ceremony will be officially held here.

  The familiar melody of music sounded in the hall.

   "The wind is getting louder outside the window. I am leaving today. I want to throw myself in my arms and hug you, Los Angeles..."

  Accompanied by the sound of music, Luke, Susan, the deputy team, David, Raymond, Marcus, Jenny, and Matthew entered the venue one after another in neat police uniforms.

   It's not the first time Luke has come here, but last time he came alone to attend the police promotion ceremony.

  This time, the whole team participated in the award ceremony together.

  During this period, Luke solved many cases, both due to his own efforts and thanks to the team.

  Because of the group medal, more police officers participated in the award ceremony this time than the last award ceremony.

  Both sides of the stand were full of family members of police officers, including Robert, Linda, and Fatty.

  Director Frank Regan stepped onto the stage to speak. Some people are born to be the protagonists. As long as Frank stands there, even if he doesn't speak, he can give people a sense of security and trust.

   This is a guy who makes people look reliable.

  Although Luke is still not sure, but from Reid's few words, he feels that this Director Frank is probably the real organizer of the sea fishing club.

  Of course, it is unrealistic for Luke to join his team at his current level. It is not to say that people look down on him, but that the gap between the two sides is too large, and it is difficult to have any common language.

  However, being able to agree with Luke to join the Sea Fishing Club proves that this boss still appreciates Luke, at least it proves that Luke is a potential stock.

  Luke also got to know Frank indirectly during this period of time. This boss has a great influence in the Los Angeles police system. Let me give you a simple example.

  His father was also the chief of the Los Angeles Police Department before, and his style was very tough, and he punished criminals severely.

  The Reagan family belongs to a standard police family, and his son and daughter are also engaged in judicial-related industries.

  If Luke can get the appreciation of this boss, Luke will be able to gain a firm foothold in the Los Angeles police system, and it is only a matter of time before he gets promoted and raises his salary.

  Frank did not speak for a long time, and soon the awarding ceremony officially began.

  The first award is the group medal.

  The members of the No. 1 Squadron of the Robbery and Murder Division have performed outstandingly recently, repeatedly solving major cases, and have won the Medal of Collective Excellence.

  Susan led the crowd to the stage to accept the award.

  Luke was pushed to the second place by Vincent.

  Vinson followed Luke as a green leaf.

  David held his head up and walked firmly.

  Raymond's temperament is introverted and serious.

  Xiao Hei raised his chin and smiled.

  Jenny put on light makeup, which looks like a policewoman.

  Matthew walked last, with a shy smile.

  Everyone came to the stage to salute, and the director Frank personally awarded the medal.

  Frank helped everyone wear their medals and said a few words of encouragement.

  Although it was just a few words on the scene, Frank's personality was very strong, and he gave everyone a shot in the arm. At least for three to five days, it could still play a certain motivating role.

   After the group medals are issued, the next step is the individual medals.

   Not surprisingly, Luke has recently performed outstandingly, made remarkable progress, and won a Medal of Courage.

  For Luke, this is the recognition of him by the top management of the Los Angeles Police Department, and it is his personal honor.

   In addition to glory, the medal can also get a lot of bonuses.

  Collective Medal of Excellence, $10,000 per person.

   Medal of Courage, rewarding individuals with $20,000.

  Just for these two medals, Luke can get a reward of 30,000 US dollars.

   I have to say, it is still a benefit from money.

  The awarding ceremony ended, and the police officers found their families to share their glory and joy.

  The little fat man ran over and hugged Luke, "Brother, I'm so proud of you! You were so handsome when you came to the stage to accept the award. Can I see your medal?"

   Luke laughed, "Of course, as long as you don't exchange them for money."

   "I'm going to take a photo to show Maggie."

  Luke "…"

  You boy is simply obsessed.

   "Hi, my dear grandson, you will always be my pride." Robert came and hugged Luke.

   "Grandpa, thank you for coming to my awarding ceremony."

   "I have to come. As long as there are similar activities in the future, I will be notified. I don't care about other people, but I definitely want to come. This is the glory of the whole family."

   "I will." Luke responded with a smile, and looked at Linda next to him, "Mom, is your son handsome on stage?"

   "It's so handsome, even more handsome than Pete and Xiao Lizi."

  Linda's eyes were red. As a single mother, no one is happier than her when she sees her son's growth.

   "Where's Uncle Val?"

  Robert shrugged, "His name is not suitable for this occasion. Just ignore him for now."

  Luke persuaded, "Grandpa, uncle is already trying to change, you have to have some confidence in him."

   "I hope." Robert responded lightly, seemingly not expecting much, "Luke, what time do you get off work at night, how about we celebrate? This is a meaningful day.

   is memorable. "

   Luke said, "Not today, the team will have dinner tonight. This is the first time we have won a team medal."

  Robert patted Luke on the shoulder, "Sure, Grandpa will make it up for you another day."

eight pm.

  Buffalo Grill Bar.

   This restaurant specializes in barbecue, among which charcoal grilled chicken is the signature dish.

  Steaks, lamb chops, pork chops, fish, seafood have everything you expect, and the taste is good.

  The members of the First Squadron of the Robbery and Murder Division sat around a round dining table.

  They often drink in the bar, and the number of dinners is really not much.

  But today is different. Everyone has won the collective medal, which is the honor of the team. Everyone is very happy, and the meaning of the dinner is extraordinary.

  Susan picked up the wine glass, "Everyone, our squadron won the collective excellence medal without the efforts of everyone.

  I haven't been in No. 1 Squadron for a long time, but I can clearly feel everyone's hard work and progress, and thank you for your support. I would like to offer you a toast. "

   "cheers"

  Everyone raised their glasses and clinked glasses with Susan.

  As Susan said, everyone is making progress, but Susan herself has not changed.

  Susan was out of place from the beginning.

   Gradually understand and acquiesce in some of the team members' handling methods.

  Since Susan became the captain, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has seldom come to 'cause trouble'. From this alone, many people will praise Susan.

  The reason for this change is that Susan will promptly remind everyone to make corrections if they violate the rules.

   Another Susan has worked in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for many years. She has connections and knows how to avoid some mistakes.

  Tonight's party was very lively, everyone seemed very happy.

   "Luke, didn't you get a personal medal? Show it out for everyone to see." Xiao Hei stared at a pair of big eyes, his face full of curiosity.

  Luke didn't hide it either, and directly took out the Medal of Courage for everyone to see.

  Xiao Hei held it in his hand and observed carefully, "I like this medal, it's completely different from the collective medal."

   David smiled, "You like a lot of things." Afterwards, he also took the medal and looked at it carefully before returning it to Luke.

  Dinner is almost finished, and everyone gathers to drink and chat.

  David drank a lot of wine tonight, and he looked a little different from the past.

  Luke reminded, "David, don't get drunk and don't want me to take you home."

   "I'm fine." David picked up the wine in the glass and drank it down again.

   Then David stood up, "Guys, I have something to say."

   Seeing David's formality, everyone stopped and looked at him.

   "Uh... I might be reassigned.

   That's right, transferred to another department.

  I have already talked to the captain, and the captain agreed.

   So I want to take this opportunity to tell everyone.

   To be honest, it is not easy to open this mouth. But I still want to say it myself. "

  David patted the medal on his chest, "This medal was obtained through our joint efforts. It is also the only medal I got when I came to the Robbery and Murder Division.

   It has witnessed our efforts, our friendship, and our past. I think it is enough.

  I am already very satisfied and have no regrets. "

  Xiao Hei was shocked by the sudden news, "David, did you drink too much? Why did you start talking nonsense?"

   "NO, what I said is true.

  I am going to be transferred to the Anti-crime and Anti-drug Division, and the documents should be approved soon. "

  Xiao Hei was still a little hard to answer, "This... this is too fast."

  Vinson's deputy team asked, "Why did you transfer to the Anti-Mafia and Anti-drug Division? What position did they give you?"

   "Vice Team"

  Vinson's deputy team nodded, "Sounds good, and it's an opportunity."

"I think so too."

   Seeing that David had already made up his mind, Luke didn't persuade him any more, "Congratulations."

  Jenny said, "Although you are not easy to get along with, I still feel a little bit reluctant to leave suddenly."

  Xiao Hei nodded, "Me too."

  Rarely, it was rare for Raymond to take the initiative to say, "Come back often."

  David pretended to be relaxed, "comeon, the anti-crime and anti-narcotics department is downstairs.

  We can meet every day. Is it necessary to say goodbye to life and death? "

  Susan raised her glass, "David, I wish you luck and greater success.

   Robbery & Murder Division will always be your home, welcome back anytime. "

"I will."

   "cheers!"

   Ask for a monthly pass!
