Chapter 1017 Going to Detroit?
After sending Danny and Cheng Hao away, Jack tidied up the house, put dust covers on the furniture and sofas, emptied the refrigerator, cooked all the raw ingredients in it, and cooked them in the evening. He was sent to the Wilshire Police Department before the patrol officers got off work.
He is planning to fly back to New York tomorrow, and naturally the fresh ingredients Braxton prepared for him cannot be wasted like this.
Being a late Santa Claus, Jack was about to call his old friends to find a place to have a drink, but when he arrived at the door of the locker room, he saw a depressed-looking John, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
This man had just made a great contribution and helped a group of federal agents take down a crazy woman who was trying to carry out a terrorist attack at a critical moment. No matter what, he should not have such an expression at the moment.
On the way Jack came, he also received a message from Chris, telling him that he would provide the LAPD with an annual donation of at least US$500,000 in the next few years to establish a regional police-citizen collaborative mental health care project. .
"So, what happened again?"
Hearing Jack's question, John forced a smile, "It's nothing. I can solve this problem by myself."
Jack occasionally betrayed him, but that didn't mean he liked being betrayed. Although John meant that he didn't want to trouble him any more, he couldn't help his curiosity and turned his head to Tim, who had also just walked out of the locker room.
"OK, that's it. Inspector Landon Briggs, uh, the union president of the LAPD, just came to me angrily."
John said and handed over a newspaper in his hand.
"The City Council will hold a vote to decide whether to allocate part of the LAPD precinct budget to mental health care programs."
Jack read from the newspaper, "So he doesn't know yet Is this money actually a donation from you? You thought it was a proposal initiated by an enthusiastic city councilor that you contacted privately?"
Tim who was watching the excitement was obviously an insider, "It's not important, Bu Riggs was angry because, as the union president, he didn't know anything about it beforehand, which made him look stupid."
"Aha, a self-righteous 'big shot' was killed. A little police officer got slapped in the face and became angry?" Jack showed a gloating expression.
He had not forgotten that John had complained before that he had gone to the union chairman, but he had been tricked by the other party using official rhetoric.
"Of course you don't have to worry about that 'big shot', Supervisory Agent Tavole from the FBI."
Tim rolled his eyes at Jack and put his hand on John On his shoulders, "It is troublesome to offend the union president, which means that he will try his best to remove you from the position of union representative and put a lot of shoes on you at the same time."
As the so-called toad John's superiors are Tim, who is the superintendent, and the black-faced Gray, who is now the police superintendent. But if a union president wants to punish an ordinary police officer, there are many ways.
John's old face twitched, "I just want to do something for everyone. This union president has successfully made me feel strongly disgusted and resistant to politics."
"Perhaps you can really consider continuing your efforts, kicking this union president down and taking power yourself. We all know that you are an optimistic person, and you won't let that kind of thing block your way."
Jack hehehey Le, didn't take this matter too seriously. In the final analysis, it was just a trivial episode, and he didn't even need to do anything.
Waiting for the Shangri-La Group and the Wilshire Police Department to hold a press conference to announce the specific donation, just call John on stage and give a special thank you to the sponsor. That union president named Landon Briggs, no matter how clear his mind, should be able to come to his senses by then.
They then went to a certain police bar that they often went to. Soon Angela, Lucy and the black girl police officer Nila Harper who also worked with Jack also Came over.
The last person to arrive was Wade Gray, the former black-faced superintendent who became increasingly wealthy after being promoted to superintendent and replacing Zoe as the chief of the Wilshire Division. His beer belly was obviously growing.
After greeting Jack, Gray sat in front of John, uncharacteristically showing a hesitant and uneasy look.
"It seems like you have something to tell me?" John asked doubtfully, and everyone on the side frowned, especially Jack and Tim, who had a somewhat ominous premonition in their hearts.
Gray sighed softly, "Just before I got off work, I received a formal application requesting that you be temporarily transferred to another police station."
"Wow, This is my first time experiencing 'a day in the cave', it sounds cool. ”
At this time, John had already returned to his usual optimistic mood, and he still hadn't come back to his senses until he noticed Gray's darker complexion, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
"So this isn't cool?"
"Not at all." Gray shook his head, "The request is that you please transfer for a whole week, the time is tomorrow, and the most important thing is the location. A remote police station in Detroit. "
"This is my punishment for offending the union president, why is he so impatient?" John suddenly realized.
“Wait a minute, this is not common sense. Even if there is a ‘day in the hole’, we have to ask for support and help from other police departments due to gaps in staffing. Generally speaking, it is only within Los Angeles County. , and only one day.
What the hell is Detroit? That was far away in Michigan, and it lasted a week. "
Tim was the first to question, and Angela also looked at Gray with a puzzled face, "You can't stop this obviously unreasonable order? "
"If I could do anything, I would have done it. I don't know where Landon Briggs found a mutual aid agreement between the DPD (Detroit Police Department) and the LAPD. This thing It's at least 20 years old, but it has never been discontinued.
But if you refuse this transfer order without a reasonable reason, in fact it seems now that even if there is a reasonable reason, the union will regard it as a deliberate violation of the order and deprive you of the qualification of a union representative or even It is an instructor qualification. "
Perhaps because he could not help, Gray's face showed a little guilt, and the others fell silent for a while.
This is indeed a pure disgusting person. Although Detroit is dangerous and chaotic, it cannot be said that life will be in danger. A mere union president has neither the ability nor the will to kill people for a trivial matter.
"Then what else can I say? It can be regarded as a new achievement. Maybe I don't have Jack's strange and dangerous experiences, but I might as well regard it as an adventure."
< br>Facing the worried eyes of everyone, John in turn comforted everyone.
