YangMeng and BaiLuoYin were happily chatting away when a policeman, who was a head taller than YangMeng, walked in front of the two. He threw a pile of documents down, "This is the report for the new week, bring it to the other branches as soon so possible."

YangMeng picked up the documents and bitterly sighed, "I can't even chat in peace!"

"I'll drive you. My car is just parked outside."

"Ok!" YangMeng cheerfully said, "I can experience sitting in a military car today."

While the car was on the road, YangMeng asked, "YinZi, do you know how to fly all types of aircrafts?"

BaiLuoYin was silent for a while before casually replying, "Almost every type."

"Then, why didn't you fly a helicopter here?"

"We only fly it during emergency operations. There's no need for it usually. It can't be landed anywhere so it's not as convenient as driving a car!"

YangMeng looked on with envious expression, "YinZi, you're so cool."

BaiLuoYin sneered, "If you could meet the requirements now and join the military to become an air force pilot, would you do it?"

YangMeng shook his head, "No, I won't."

"That's it then! I still envy the safe work environment of your job. Every day, one just needed to patrol based on shifts and write some reports; occasionally when an urgent case arises, the matter can be resolved by just dispatching several men."

"How could it be as easy as you've described?" YangMeng felt a bit intimidated before changing his expression, "However, compared to your job, mine is definitely safer."

BaiLuoYin kept silent.

YangMeng asked again, "YinZi, is it really hard being in the military?"

"It's not as harsh as you've said. It's alright. In the beginning, it was a little tough, but I've become numb to it."

"I still don't understand why you decided to join the military so suddenly back then. But, it's not easy to get into the air force. So many people wanted join but can't. Especially for people like you, who have connections in the military, your performance will easily be promoted. You have a very promising future! Brother, strive hard, the second half of my life is counting on you."

BaiLuoYin parked his car and followed YangMeng into the Public Security Bureau building. The two arrived at the entrance of the branch while chatting along the way.

"Walk this way." YangMeng looked at BaiLuoYin and said.

BaiLuoYin had wanted to turn a corner but was instantly shocked frozen by a pair of silhouette standing not far away.

"The deputy director isn't in?" YanYaJing looked at GuHai, "Didn't you call him beforehand?"

GuHai spoke while walking, "He went out for an urgent matter at the last minute, but he'll be back after an hour."

"Then, are you going to stay and wait for him?" YanYaJing followed closely behind GuHai.

"No, we'll just talk tomorrow."

GuHai's walking speed was very fast. YanYaJing basically had to jog behind him. However, GuHai suddenly braked, YanYaJing lost her balance and bumped into GuHai's body.

GuHai reached out his arm and steadied her shoulders to prevent her from falling down.

"Why did you stop so suddenly?" YanYaJing asked after she had regained her balance.
