The director of the Bureau of Investigation suddenly recalled all the agents who were handling illegal cases to maintain law and order. These agents were a little baffled.
To be precise, there are some complaints. It seems that the Bureau of Investigation is far more "upscale" than the police department. Apart from the fact that there is indeed a sense of superiority in terms of salary and name, there is only a sense of superiority left. There is no practical benefit. According to imperial laws and institutional interpretations, the Police Investigation Bureau is a high-level comprehensive investigation agency with a relatively broad scope of authority, but it only handles cases of a serious nature. The serious nature means that it is a major and important case, and many superiors and senior officials are paying attention to it. If you use dirty hands to make money in such a case, you will definitely feel that you are too comfortable.
On the contrary, after they started to take over the work of the police station in the past few days, they discovered that the police station is the real "welfare institution". They usually do not encounter anything too dangerous, and there are many ways to make money.
If the car is parked crookedly, you will be fined a dollar.
Doesn't look like a nice guy, asking for ID, no
A fine of two yuan.
The fines of one and two yuan can be dozens of times a day, especially now that the public security situation is not good and there are more guys on the street who are wandering outside the shops and they are not good people at first glance. These guys provide them with a lot of money. Not everyone carries their resident card with them. This thing has only been implemented in Otis City for less than half a year. Many people just keep it at home after getting it. Who has nothing to do with it? This allows many agents to get three to five yuan in their hands in a day.
Now that they were called back, and the chief asked them not to go to the streets to maintain law and order, they somewhat complained. The monthly income from this part-time job is much higher than their own salary, and it actually ends here. It even makes some people feel that it is better to work in the police station.
As soon as Donald learned the news, he called the director of the Bureau of Investigation and asked him why he didn't follow his orders to let the agents go to the streets to maintain law and order. Within fifteen minutes after the agents of the Bureau of Investigation were evacuated, There were three more break-ins and a businessman was assaulted and injured. The responsibility for these problems cannot fall on Carter, who has been relieved of his duties, and the police department without people, nor can it fall on the Bureau of Police Investigation. It can only fall on him, the mayor who "does nothing".
The director of the Investigation Bureau was silent for a long time before giving an answer, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Mayor. Our Police Investigation Bureau only accepts assignments from higher-level authorities. The City Hall only has the power to advise us and has no management power. As a As an important power department of the empire, we should abide by the laws and systems of the empire, so I am very sorry that it is difficult for us to go out to maintain law and order without orders from our superiors. I hope you can understand!"
"Did someone from the State Bureau of Investigation speak?" This was Donald's first reaction. It must have been Dulin who put pressure on the State Bureau of Investigation and made the State Bureau of Investigation order a ban on dispatching here. "I understand. , I don’t blame you for this, I will make other arrangements!”
After hanging up the phone, Donald felt that he was completely trapped by a huge net, and also felt the complicated struggle he would face after being promoted from the second person to the first person. These struggles come not only from within the political arena, but also from outside the political arena, leaving him internally and externally beleaguered. He has never thought that the mayor of a city needs to face these things. Do all mayors encounter similar problems? At the same time, he also had a clear understanding. As long as he could get through this difficulty, he would be able to grasp the real power of Odis City, the real power, and isolate the real power after Dulin!
"What should I do?" He lay on the sofa and looked at his secretary in despair. His secretary was almost fifty years old and had been working with his father in the imperial capital. After this operation, he was selected as a new party member of Odis City. His father left and assigned his secretary to Donald to assist this boy.
The secretary thought calmly for a moment, "I think the most important thing for you now is to reorganize the police department. After you dismissed Chief Haight, those police officers resigned together, which is actually a good thing for you. This will avoid all the pressure you have to face in cleaning the police station in the future. It is the best choice for them to leave on their own. Now you only need to put people you trust into the police station. I believe that the reorganized police department will be the best choice. It can play a key role in stabilizing public security in Otis City!”
Donald was stunned and immediately turned over to sit up. He glanced at his secretary gratefully. Indeed, he had not expected this. He was just a little dizzy because of the voluntary resignation of Haite and a large number of police officers. Originally, it took him a lot of effort to clean up the police station, but now it has become clean on its own, right? He immediately picked up the phone and arrangements were made immediately.
After all, he is also a politician with a noble background, so he will naturally have a lot of resources in his hands. Under his arrangement, the candidate to replace the chief of the Odis City Regional Police has emerged, and he has also given the new chief great support. The personnel power allows him to arbitrarily select people he thinks are feasible to enter the regional police station and give him a police force.
The deserted police station became lively again overnight. The new chief brought more than fifty people. Although it was not as many people as in the Haight period, it was still able to barely maintain the current security problem in the city. Moreover, the new director also obtained a very powerful authority from Donald—unrestricted firing authority.
The police can take the initiative to fire on any criminal who appears to be aggressive and poses a danger to themselves. This is why the new chief has the confidence to take over this position.
The new director is called Singer, a native of Ogdin. He has a rich resume. He has been a thug, smuggler, and opened a bar. A few years ago, when Donald was still very young, he had a conflict with some guests in the bar he owned. Singer clearly stood on Donald's side, helped him deal with the troublesome guests, and gained Donald's friendship. In subsequent years, when Donald needed someone to do his dirty work, he would turn it over to Singer.
It seems that they have a close relationship. In essence, Donald looks down on such people. He has just been using Singer to do things for him. When he really has to face important interests, he will definitely not hesitate. Dump Singer. But now, Singer is very important to him, and this is also a dirty job.
The next day, after dawn, a decree was issued from the city hall. In view of the frequent criminal activities and frequent violent acts in Otis, the city hall ordered a curfew policy to be implemented from now on. All people on the street after nine o'clock in the evening will be detained. If you are considered a suspicious person, you need to show your resident card. If they do not have a resident card, they need to follow the police officer who found them to the police station for identity registration and investigation. If there is resistance, the police officer can shoot the suspect directly after firing a warning shot if necessary.
As soon as this decree came out, the entire city was in an uproar, especially the seven major casinos that protested. The busiest time for casino business is after night. If a curfew is implemented at this time, it will definitely have a fatal impact on the casino's business.
Donald also knew that there would be protests, so he immediately summoned the shareholders of the seven major casinos to the conference room of the city hall and gave a solution, that is, the special cars used to pick up and drop off the casinos would not be included in the inspection scope. In other words, guests in the casino can take the casino's shuttle bus to the casino, or return to their hotel, and the police will let them go. Although this seems to be a way to get the best of both worlds, the shareholders of the Seven Casinos have been completely disappointed with Donald.
He only cares about the struggle between himself and Dulin, treating their interests as child's play, exacerbating the disappointment of Donald among the local upper class in Otis City.
In fact, this can't be blamed on Donald being a little obsessed. The constant violent cases have caused more than half of the members of the chamber of commerce to leave. Losing these supporters who can support him and gain his trust will have a great influence on his next work and current work. The situation has had a huge negative impact. He must curb the deteriorating public security in Otis City in a very short period of time, and after gaining the most basic recognition of all citizens, he must then start to change the current situation and strive to regain the disadvantage.
He thinks it is not difficult, and it may be solved in a few days. Once the people in Dulin realize that continuing to engage in those little tricks will bring extremely serious consequences, they will give up such stupid and childish behavior. That will be the real time. Fight, not yet!
At this time, Donald did not know that news reports about him were still being fermented outside Otis City, and new content was added.
The hundreds of citizens discussing a series of city hall ordinances that violated local rules in front of the city hall were captured by many reporters. They added some subjective titles and content, turning the photos into a parade. , a protest!
Hundreds of citizens of Otis gathered outside the city hall to protest against some of the policy agenda of the new mayor Donald. They believed that Mayor Donald's personal ability was not enough to hold the post of mayor of Otis, and his morals were damaged. Many citizens Demand that Donald resign voluntarily.
Well, reporters don’t need any press releases. They only need a photo to write dozens of articles with different core contents. If you add that Du Lin constantly sends fifty to one hundred yuan to each newspaper, royalties", they were more willing to tilt the article's stance toward Dulin's side.
More and more people began to pay attention to the city of Otis. Coupled with the sudden curfew in Otis City, a writer directly asked the question in the newspaper - is war coming again
