They didn’t just want to fight for Heng Yi so that they could make contributions.

The higher-ups had also ordered that Heng Yi must be brought to their side.

Since everyone had the same intention, it was very difficult to do.

No one could convince anyone.

They waited for Heng Yi to come over and asked him who he wanted to follow.

Heng Yi glanced at the four.

He didn’t know who was who. He didn’t even know who to choose.

Because everyone had their own goals, and whoever he chose would offend the others.

He might as well leave this matter to them. After all, it made no difference to him if he chose one himself. After he made a contribution, he would not be in the government office but in the military camp.

The four constables discussed for a while and decided to draw lots.

Heng Yi stood aside, and the runner who brought him here immediately ran to get ready. However, the runner exchanged a glance with Constable Chen and quickly avoided him.

Four balls of paper were placed on a tray.

A few of them declined and let each other choose first.

“Since you all refuse, I’ll go first.”

He casually picked one up.

The other three each took one.

Constable Ma was the first to open it. There was nothing on it. He snorted coldly, “What bad luck.”

Constable Chen smiled.

However, he was not in a hurry to open his.

When Constable Wu opened his, it was blank as well. His face darkened.

Constable Zheng felt his heart heat up.

There was still a 50% chance. If he won…

He quickly opened it, but there was nothing.

Constable Chen laughed, “Hahaha, Heng Yi is on my team now.”

He did not open the paper ball and put it in his sleeve pocket.

He patted Heng Yi’s shoulder, “Let’s go. I’ll take you to get your uniform and your token.”

Heng Yi nodded.

He noticed that Constable Chen was very close to the bailiff, and the bailiff quickly gave him something.

“Wait a minute.”

Constable Wu said in a deep voice.

“Constable Chen, you haven’t opened that paper ball for us to see. What if there’s nothing there?”

“Hmm, that makes sense,” Constable Zheng echoed.

Constable Ma remained silent.

However, he was also staring at Constable Chen like a tiger eyeing its prey.

Constable Chen sneered.

He reached into his sleeve pocket and took out a ball of paper, opening it slowly.

There was a small word in the middle of the crumpled paper.

The three of them looked at each other.

Constable Wu smiled and said, “Congratulations, Constable Chen! You’ve earned yourself a brave general!”

But on the inside, he was thinking about how to explain this to the Gong Prince.

From the beginning to the end, Heng Yi had seen their expressions, but he didn’t say anything.

In his heart, he was wondering who Constable Chen was.

Constable Chen was calmer than Heng Yi had expected. He talked to Heng Yi slowly along the way, introducing his schedules to him.

He smiled faintly at everyone and seemed to be very easy to get along with.

After collecting his new constable uniform and badge, Constable Chen brought Heng Yi to meet the twenty constables in his team.

One was tall, one was short, one was fat, one was thin, and the last one looked like a smart person.

And they all enthusiastically greeted Heng Yi.

Heng Yi greeted them blandly.

“We’re all family here. We have to be united, make more contributions, and get promoted as soon as possible.”

Constable Chen patted Heng Yi’s shoulder, “Heng Yi, I have faith in you. You will go far.”

“Heng Yi just came to report today. Let’s go to a fast food restaurant for dinner after we leave the office.”

Constable Chen’s words made everyone agree.

The food at Qiaoyi Fast Food Restaurant was famous for being delicious, and if one didn’t drink alcohol, it wouldn’t be expensive.

Constable Chen was a generous person. Naturally, he would not only order vegetarian dishes. The meat dishes at Qiaoyi Fast Food Restaurant were the best.

Let me treat you.” Heng Yi said.

Constable Chen laughed, “Alright, you’ll treat us today, and I’ll treat you tomorrow. Then we’ll take a break another day. Do you think it’s convenient for you to bring us into the mountains to hunt?”

Heng Yi was silent for a moment, “It might not be convenient. Hunting is not easy with so many people. Our footsteps will scare away the prey.”

Everyone was disappointed.

Heng Yi continued, “But you can help me dig the ground at the foot of the mountain while 1 go hunting, and we’ll split the hunt equally.”

It was the same when he was in Puyi County.

Cats had their ways, and rats had their ways. If they could not offend people, they would try their best not to offend people.

“That’s good. It’s settled then.” Constable Chen was the first to express his opinion.

The others quickly echoed their agreement.

It was his first day on duty, and there were no big cases.

Constable Chen was very interested in training Heng Yi, so he told him about the ways and strategies of solving cases and finding evidence.

Heng Yi listened very seriously. After all, having more skills was not a burden.

Seeing Heng Yi was listening attentively to him, Constable Chen continued to tell him more details. Some people couldn’t stand listening and slipped away, and Constable Chen didn’t say anything.

Everyone had their own choices.

People who were capable and hardworking would be supported and appreciated no matter where they went.

For lunch, Constable Chen brought Heng Yi to the dining hall.

The food in the government office wasn’t very good. It wasn’t oily enough, and it didn’t taste good either. Heng Yi wasn’t picky, though, and ate it bit by bit.

Constable Chen watched Heng Yi for a moment and continued eating.

People with a little money wouldn’t eat in the cafeteria.

If their family’s conditions weren’t very good, they would eat here and bring some leftover food home.

He didn’t expect that Heng Yi would eat it without a care.

Did Heng Yi dislike it?

He was used to the delicious food at home and had his beloved wife and children to accompany him.

But this was all for the sake of living.

After dinner, Heng Yi didn’t expect Constable Wu and Constable Zheng to come to him.

Constable Zheng even said that he wanted to spar with him.

“Alright.”

This time, Heng Yi hid his strength.

Therefore, after one round, he lost.

Constable Zheng looked at Heng Yi and smiled, “Not bad, kid. If you don’t mind, come find me. I might be able to give you some pointers in the future.”

He was blatantly trying to rope Heng Yi in.

“Alright, thank you for the offer.” Heng Yi cupped his fists at Constable Zheng.

There was no harm in being taught more.

When they arrived at the government office, Heng Yi treated them to a meal at Qiaoyi Fast Food Restaurant.

Naturally, he also invited Constable Wu, Constable Zheng, and Constable Ma. No matter what they were thinking, they were all in harmony. They drank, ate, and chatted together. Someone even suggested they should drink wine.

Heng Yi glanced at the person who spoke and decided to stay away from him.

This kind of person couldn’t even control two taels of meat under him, so there was no need to be close.

Constable Wu and Constable Zheng’s intention to rope him in was very obvious. Constable Chen did not say much from the beginning to the end. He only held his wine glass and drank and ate.

In fact, he wanted to see if Heng Yi would be roped in.

After eating, a few people agreed to go to the brothel and asked Heng Yi if he wanted to go.

“No.”

Heng Yi refused coldly.

He would never go to such a dirty place.

He didn’t have the mood in the early years. Now that he married his beloved wife, he wouldn’t go.

Even if he was only invited to drink there, he wouldn’t go.

Why couldn’t he drink here? Why did he have to go to a brothel?

“Then we’ll be leaving.”

Heng Yi looked at them and hummed indifferently.

In any case, he would not get too close to them in the future.

Constable Chen glanced at Heng Yi.

He smiled and said goodbye to Heng Yi.

After sending everyone away, Heng Yi let out a sigh of relief.

He was still not used to socializing.

The carriage was already waiting at the door. Heng Yi looked at Dong Lai. “Have you eaten?”

I’ve eaten, Master,” Dong Lai lifted the curtain and waited for Heng Yi to step on the stool and get into the carriage. Then, he put the stool beside the driver’s seat and drove the carriage back to the manor.

Dong Lai exhaled. The light was dim against the foggy day.

Although he had waited outside for a day, his heart was still warm.

Back at the manor, Heng Yi went straight to the main courtyard.

Dong Lai drove the carriage to the place where the carriage was parked, and then returned to the servants’ quarters.

Han Qiao was teasing Ah-Yao. When she saw Heng Yi come back, she said to Pu Cao, “Go and see Dong Lai.”

Pucao blushed and replied a soft, “Yes.”

After leaving the room, she ran.

Han Qiao smiled and asked Heng Yi, “Today is your first day on duty.. How do you feel?”
