Chapter 603: Promotion
What kind of school was the Purist Faction? He Xiaoxing didn't explain much back then. On the surface, it seemed to be a school gathered around a certain idea after the new era.
But Chen Chuan could feel from the booklet He Xiaoxing gave him that it was probably more than just a school with a common idea, but one with a proper inheritance.
Because the school has its own skills and secret transmissions, which absolutely cannot be supported by some loose members.
Judging from all aspects, the existence of these schools seems to be acknowledged by the Company and Government as well.
This should be because it has Strength itself, and it is very likely that there are some high-end combatants in the school, so they can only make certain compromises.
He thought of the booklet that Instructor Wen had given him. The latter told him that there was no threshold for the First to Third Limit. As long as a Martial Artist had talent and enough resources, they could pass. But going further up was not so easy, there was a bottleneck.
This bottleneck was likely referring to Pure Essence.
When Instructor Wen gave him the booklet, he told him not to rush to read it, but to open it after he knew how to proceed.
In that case, he could go back and take a look.
Sitting down in the living room, he opened the booklet and found that all the content was written with a brush, which was a general description of Spiritual Power.
For those who have never Cultivated Spiritual Power, they may only be able to take a look, but it is basically useless for those who have already embarked on Spirit Cultivation, but he knows that this should just be a hint.
He adjusted his breathing slightly, closed his eyes, and used his Spirit to feel it, and as soon as he tried it, he immediately felt the difference.
The Spirit information that seemed to be condensed on it with some kind of material now emerged and was received by him.
After reading it, he opened his eyes and looked down again. The information in it should not have been left by Instructor Wen, but possibly by a senior in the Purist Faction. This seemed even more likely from the somewhat old appearance of the booklet.
After such a long time, there was still a wisp of Spirit that could be accurately transmitted and perceived, this person was obviously extremely extraordinary, and even had a bit of a show-off intention.
The content above did not involve too many complicated things, but only told him that when he encountered obstacles, and was unwilling to take the path designated for him by certain forces, then they could provide a choice.
He closed the booklet, it seemed he had to go find Instructor Wen again.
But there was no rush.
He picked up the hot drink on the table and took a sip, looking at the clear blue sky outside the Building.
Tomorrow was the day to officially announce his promotion.
After resting in the dormitory for a day, the next day he put on a uniform and went out full of Spirit. At nine o'clock, he arrived at the Processing Bureau. After greeting his superiors and colleagues, he was surrounded by two teams of soldiers and came to the hall of the Processing Bureau.
The current Director of the Processing Bureau, Wei Huan, the Deputy Director Wu Quan in charge of daily specific affairs, the Deputy Director Fang Ju in charge of World Ring and defense matters, the Deputy Director Guo You in charge of logistics and technical support, and the Deputy Director Luo Xiu, who was in charge of internal supervision affairs and usually did not show up, were all present.
The other Processing Bureau members who were qualified were also present and stood around the hall.
Ni Qianxi, Officer Qiu, Captain Li and others were all standing in the crowd. As for other ordinary members, such as several sponsored Wuyi Academy Students, they were not yet qualified to stand here.
After Chen Chuan stood in front under the gaze of everyone, Director Wei Huan took out a black, gold-edged promotion Documents. After opening it, he read out:
"After discussion within the bureau and approval from the higher authorities, the following appointment is hereby announced:
Executive Captain Chen Chuan has been courageous and fearless and has repeatedly made special contributions since taking office. Now, with the approval of the Jibei Province Government, Chen Chuan is promoted to Investigation Director of this department, responsible for command, dispatch, and security matters, and is ordered to spare no Remaining energy and be devoted to his duties to defend the safety of the country and the well-being of the people.
This is hereby announced and will take effect from the date of this document.
Second day of June, 95th year of the Great Shun Republic."
After reading it, Wei Huan raised his head, a smile on his face, and handed the letter of appointment to Chen Chuan, then raised his hand to salute, put it down and said, "Supervisor Chen, congratulations."
After Chen Chuan took it, he returned a salute, shook hands with him, and said, "Thank you, Director Wei."
The people around him applauded.
Chen Chuan shook hands with the several Deputy Directors one by one, then turned around. People in the bureau who were familiar with him and those who were not were now coming up to shake hands and congratulate him. Some were calling him Supervisor Chen, and some were calling him Director Chen.
Although they could call him that, it was unknown whether they were deliberately praising him or simply trying to get close to him. After all, there were people in the bureau who were kind to him, but there were also those who were dissatisfied and jealous.
But he didn't need to care about these, because now he had enough Strength to sit in this position.
After a round of pleasantries, Deputy Director Guo You came over. He was a white and fat Middle-aged man who looked like a fermented dough, but with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, he looked a bit more refined.
He said politely: "Supervisor Chen, please come with me. There are some security and technical matters to discuss with you."
Chen Chuan said hello to the people around him and followed him away from here.
Guo You said with a smile: "Supervisor Chen, when you are promoted to Investigation Director, you will have a permanent office in the Processing Bureau. I will have someone send the keys, Supervisor Chen's uniform, sword, and some related items there later.
If Supervisor Chen is not satisfied with the layout and security of the office, you can tell me, and I will arrange for someone to improve it according to Supervisor Chen's requirements."
Chen Chuan said: "Then thank you, Director Guo."
Guo You said with a smile: "You're welcome, you're welcome."
While speaking, the two entered the elevator, and this time they were still going down, down to the fifth floor underground. When the elevator door opened, a spacious space appeared.
In the middle of it was an octagonal metal room, but there were holes in the walls of the room, and you could see light flashing on and off inside.
There was a shield-shaped logo on the front door.
Guo You said: "This is our Processing Bureau's Active Consciousness Entity Safe Shield. Its role is not in combat, but in defense and reconnaissance, and in making reasonable analyses. When Supervisor Chen fought against the Ferris Wheel's Active Consciousness Entity that day, that certain existence was first discovered by the Safe Shield."
At this time, a middle-aged man's voice came from the front, a very low and steady voice, giving people a full sense of security.
"Hello, Supervisor Chen, I am Safe Shield, and I am very happy to serve you."
Guo You walked to the side, took a box, and handed it to Chen Chuan: "Supervisor Chen, after being promoted to Investigation Director, you can master a part of the Active Consciousness Entity Safe Shield's authority. Please wear this and we will complete the procedure."
Chen Chuan opened the box, and inside was a special Boundary Token. After he put it on, he entered the password that only he knew and additionally verified the energy field lock according to the prompts inside.
Then he knew that from then on, his Boundary Token would be protected by the Safe Shield at all times. Within Central City, he no longer had to worry about being invaded by any Resonator, and now he was in any place, as long as he did not actively shield himself, he could communicate with the Safe Shield and maintain the necessary contact with the bureau at any time.
At the same time, he could also obtain confidential information from the Safe Shield that only the Processing Bureau had the authority to know, and could directly access the basic information and Implant status of personnel below his level through the Safe Shield.
Guo You said with a smile: "Supervisor Chen, for your safety, the bureau will be equipped with a private armed vehicle team, with three teams of four people, a total of twelve people, who will take turns 24 hours a day to be responsible for protecting your safety and listening to your orders. At that time, the bureau will also be assigned a Resonator.
Well, the bureau has considered some specific situations and the manpower may be insufficient, so if Supervisor Chen feels that it is not enough, you can also recruit personnel yourself.
The bureau will provide two Resonators and twelve security members, a total of fourteen places. The bureau will be responsible for half of the funds used for employment, and these personnel will automatically obtain temporary Processing Bureau status.
In addition, the bureau will provide Supervisor Chen with 100,000 yuan in office expenses every month."
Guo You said with a smile: "Just submit a report every month on how Supervisor Chen specifically uses it.
Oh, yes, the bureau has also purchased Grade A city security defense services and Grade 2 Parallel Emergency Rescue services for Supervisor Chen. As long as Supervisor Chen is in office, these services will be provided every year."
Chen Chuan knew that behind the Grade A city security defense service was the Municipal Council, and the Parallel Emergency Rescue was a joint business of several medical Companies, but he tried to ask and learned that the Government Affairs Hall uniformly purchased this service for the heads of the departments below, so even if he didn't need it, these were already included in the expenditure funds.
He felt in his heart that the treatment of ordinary employees and the upper echelons of the Processing Bureau was vastly different, and the gap would likely grow wider and wider as he went further up.
Next, he learned about the matters he needed to be responsible for through the Safe Shield and Guo You's introduction.
Investigation Directors are divided into two types. One is the administrative type of regional Investigation Director, who usually manages an area and is mainly responsible for administrative affairs or represents the bureau to communicate with various departments and subordinates, and does not go to the front line.
The other type is the action type of Investigation Director like Chen Chuan. He generally does not need to come forward for tasks, but only comes forward when the matter reaches a certain level of danger.
In theory, he can dispatch several Executive Captains in the bureau to carry out tasks together.
But this is actually just on the surface. The so-called Investigation Director mainly defends against and investigates the various Companies in Central City. At the critical moment, what he needs to confront is the force of various Companies.
Guo You said with a smile: "Supervisor Chen, the above has approved a three-month vacation for you. After you come back, the bureau will arrange specific tasks for you."
