Although he saw with his own eyes that the equipment and morale of the patrol team had changed a lot, Fabino still found it hard to believe that the law and order situation in the southeastern city had really improved.
However, when he walked onto the street, all passers-by, regardless of men, women, young or old, were doing or planning to do something. When they saw him and the patrol team around him, they all stopped, opened their mouths, and said different things. The accent says hello to Fabino and Zhang Heng and others.
When an old man selling fish also stopped in front of Fabino and said hello to Fabino blankly, the astonishment in Mr. Judge's heart finally rose to the point, "Okay, what the hell is this going on?" ? Are they trying to make us let our guard down so they can secretly assassinate us afterwards?"
"No, they just want to say hello, out of politeness." Zhang Heng said.
"That's weird," Fabino rubbed his chin, "If I remember correctly, people in this place have a very bad attitude towards outsiders. They always feel that outsiders just want to take advantage of them, although this The city has indeed taken advantage of them, and I believe they are more willing to spit than say hello when they see us."
"Prejudice is difficult to change for a while, but at least they are working hard now. Saying hello is a good start anyway, isn't it?"
"Ha, I think we will know the answer to this question soon." Fabino was noncommittal when he heard this.
Mr. Assessor has instinctive doubts about everything in the southeast city. He always feels that what he sees now is only a superficial illusion, but Fabino also firmly believes that as long as his eyes are bright enough, he can always find the truth. Although he didn't know how Zhang Heng managed to get the locals in the southeast city to cooperate with him to create this harmonious scene together, but the southeast city is so big, Fabino didn't believe that Zhang Heng could take care of every corner.
However, half a day later, the wide-eyed Fabino not only failed to find any basis for Zhang Heng's actions, but instead found more signs that the law and order in the southeastern urban area was indeed improving.
Although this place is still poor and dirty, at least as far as the streets are concerned, criminal activities have indeed decreased a lot, and some order has been restored, especially where the patrols go, which has a considerable deterrent effect on criminals.
And from the records Aris handed over to him, it can also be seen that the number of cases cracked by the patrol team and the number of criminals arrested have increased astonishingly. This is not just a breakthrough from zero to one. It is already the top of all regions. Of course, considering the special environment here in the southeast city, the number of criminals caught by the patrol team is still a drop in the bucket compared with the number of criminals in the whole group.
But you must know that the patrol team and Zhang Heng only have thirteen people, which is the smallest number in all areas, and they are in charge of the largest and most complicated block. Even if he is as picky as Fabino, he found that he It seemed that the evaluation inspection couldn't find a reason not to give Zhang Heng and others high marks.
...
The changes in the patrol and the place are obvious to anyone who is not blind, and I believe it all started with the arrival of a former gladiator champion named Zhang Heng...
Early the next morning, Fabino's assessment report appeared in the hands of Commodus, and after the young emperor read it word for word, he put down the report and asked Klinder beside him, "What do you think? "
Although he tried his best to maintain the majesty of the emperor, the excitement revealed in it still betrayed his current thoughts.
Klinde bowed, "It seems that our gladiatorial champion is not only superb in skill, but also proved that he can indeed solve your majesty's problems. I think your majesty may consider recruiting him to do things by your side. This shows that your majesty looks at people well." Very accurate vision."
"I knew it." Commodus slapped the table, "I knew he was the person I was looking for!"
A look of jealousy flashed in Klinde's eyes when he heard the words, but he hid it well. When Commodus looked at him again, his face was full of relief, as if he had found a companion who could work together. happy.
"The law and order problem in the southeast city has plagued successive emperors for a long time. Even my father couldn't solve it, but he did what no one before him could do, and it only took two months. , did not apply for funds, and did not apply for an increase in manpower..." Commodore said excitedly.
"Yeah, it's very rare to be single-handedly, brave and resourceful." Klinde didn't hesitate to praise him.
"Don't lift him up too high," Commodus smiled when he heard the words, "Let's just forget about it alone. You were the one who released the news that a thousand imperial guards were stationed in the southeast city. If there was no news, he would You can't scare those tough people in the southeast city, and I heard that you participated in a lot of the whole plan, but you didn't mention it."
"This is probably what I like the most about you, Klind." The young emperor patted the consultant's shoulder, "Many people will be blinded by power, they are good people before they touch power, and they want to do something for the people Good thing, but gradually, the mentality changed, wanting more, more... until the heart was occupied by jealousy, I saw a lot of people like this around my father, but I can be sure that you are not such a person, The Empire is lucky to have someone as upright and humble as you."
"Your Majesty's praise makes me panic. I'm just fulfilling the oath I made when I first met you. Let me be His Majesty's other eyes and help you see more of the truth."
"Yeah, you are my eyes, Otrus is my hand, and Zhang Heng, let me see what I can get from him." Commodus rubbed his hands excitedly while talking Hand, "Go, go and bring him to me."
"Of order, Your Majesty." Klinde bowed, turned and exited Commodus's study.
And when he came to the corridor, the smile on his face disappeared. Although Zhang Heng is now his political ally, Klinde still felt very uncomfortable when he heard Commodus praise him so much.
He knows Commodus very well. Before Zhang Heng proposed to let him participate in the public security restoration plan in the southeast urban area, and even led it. Although Klinde agreed, he did not adopt Zhang Heng's original plan, but took himself out of it. Going out, just revealed a little wind on the Senate side.
He believes that Commodus will see his role in it, and at the same time he can consolidate his image of being humble and not taking credit. Klinde is very clear that the latter is the key to his stable position beside Commodus. And it is true.
But compared to the part that Zhang Heng got from it, Klinde still has the suspicion of making wedding clothes for others, but now he can't control so much, the competition between him and Otrus has become more and more fierce , and Commodus is obviously more inclined to Otrus, even if Zhang Heng can't solve Otrus, it can at least distract Commodus' attention and give him more preparation time.
"Damn it, lucky Oriental." Klinder muttered in a low voice, and left the palace.
