Chapter 11 Invitation
Jack knew the driver. Although they only met once, he would never forget his appearance, because he was the mysterious person who gave him the video.
"You have a good memory as a young man. You have only met once, but you can still remember him after two years." The middle-aged man nodded and said, "At that time, we were investigating a big case. We were lying in ambush there to investigate other people, but we accidentally filmed your friend's murder. Because all the cases we have investigated are very important and we could not reveal our position at all. Therefore, we could not directly hand over the video to the police. After research, we decided to give it to you first. After all, the victim was your good friend. We inferred that you would definitely send the video to the police. However, you shocked all of us and you kept the video secretly."
It turned out to be the case! Jack solved a mystery in his heart finally. It turned out that the mysterious man gave the video to him, hoping to use his own hand to hand it over to the police because they could not come forward directly.
"Since then, we have started to pay attention to you and will pay attention to your actions irregularly."
"So, you are in control of everything I did and then you took pictures of what happened last night on the rooftop in your original position."
"Yes. I have studied it carefully. Your layout in this matter is not a perfect plan. However, I appreciate your patience, shrewdness, and timing. The audit department now needs people like you. If you join the audit department, I'll help you keep the matter under control. Otherwise, I can't connive people like you into evil ways and continue to harm society."
"If I wanted to enter the evil ways, I would have accepted Wilson's invitation."
"If you really do that, do you think I will still sit here and talk about it with you? What I value is first human nature and second human ability."
The middle-aged man said slowly, "Young people are more or less rebellious, and auditing is a very rebellious department. It will not follow the current, but will only go up against it. It pursues only one thing, that is fairness and justice."
"After joining the audit department, you may become a thorn in the eyes of many people, and you will probably have countless attacks by overt and covert means waiting for you in the future. However, to change the status quo or to change a system or a society, it always requires one or several generations of elites to come forward and make sacrifices."
"When people are treated unfairly, people always hope to have a hero to stand up and help themselves, but people seldom think of being such a hero themselves. Jack, you are just like most people, just looking forward to the emergence of a hero, but are you unwilling or afraid to be that hero?"
The hot blood at Jack's body was boiled up because of the middle-aged people's remarks. He didn't know what kind of department the audit was and hadn't even heard of this department. However, he hoped to change the current social situation and also hoped that fairness and justice could return to the mainstream of society.
He opened his lips and was about to speak, but he bit his mouth and swallowed everything he wanted to say. He changed the subject and said in a low voice, "I'm just a student now."
The middle-aged man said with a smile, "I didn't want you to officially join the audit right now. You can do it only in name first."
With this, he picked up the briefcase under the seat, pulled out a document from the inside, and handed it to Jack. Jack took it and looked at it. It turned out that this was a completed application.
In the first column above, his name Jack was clearly written. In the entry column, there was no second or third wish, only one first wish, that was the College A.
"Well..." Seeing this application form, Jack felt stunned. He looked over and over again, shook his head, and said, "This is not the application I filled before." He was going to apply for business school.
"I filled this for you."
"Do you want me to enter the police academy?"
"Yes! Although the audit could not be said police and did not belong to the public security system, all the skills of the police were needed in the investigation. Therefore, you can only attend the police academy. College A is located in the provincial Captain, not far from City D. It is also quite convenient for you to go to school there."
Jack put down his application form and looked at the middle-aged man, feeling that everything was under the man’s control. It was as if the middle-aged man had expected that he would follow his arrangement before he saw him. First, he was allowed to attend the police academy, and then he joined the auditing department as he said.
This somewhat aroused the kind of rebellion in his heart. He scoffed and asked, "Do you think I will definitely join you?"
"I know you will."
Seeing him squinting, the middle-aged man smiled and said, "Because you are a wise man. You should know very well that once you enter the Institution A, your life will be ruined. You can't let your elder brother take such a big blow. It is not easy for your elder brother to raise you. He has always had hope for your success."
The middle-aged man got to the point. Jack made a wry smile in his heart. It seemed that this old fox knew his family background so well.
"Was this a flexible threat?"
"Of course, you can understand in that way."
"I have another question, that is, is auditing really a government department recognized by the state?"
"Of course, at present, this department belongs to an organization directly under the State Council, but it has not been popularized yet. At present, it is only implemented on a trial basis in L Province."
Jack nodded and said, "The last question, if I did attend the police academy according to your arrangement, should I... Be regarded as studying with pay?"
Snigger! The driver sitting in front couldn't help laughing. What he said really stunned the middle-aged. He pondered for a moment and then asked, "Is this really important to you?"
"Yes, if I were studying with pay, then I wouldn't have to ask my elder brother to help me pay for my tuition and living expenses, and I wouldn't have to work during school."
"Ha-ha." The middle-aged man gave a short laugh and said, "If I remember correctly, you took a million yuan from Johnny, the money..."
Before he had finished speaking, Jack said seriously, "Johnny destroyed two families, and that one million is the compensation he should make to the two families. I will not take away a penny of it without permission."
Looking at the anger in his eyes, it seemed as if he had been humiliated. The middle-aged man smiled and said after thinking for a moment, "I can make an exception. We'll let you study with pay. As for the part-time job, I think you should not have the chance to work during your time at the police academy."
The police academy had never been considered by Jack and he did not know the police academy. He listened to the middle-aged saying so, but only thought that the police academy was relatively strict in management and heavy in academic work, leaving no extra time for people to work. It was not until he went to the police academy that he understood the real meaning of the middle-aged man's words.
It could be seen that Jack had accepted all the conditions he had proposed, and the middle-aged man showed a satisfied smile. He drew a business card from his bosom, handed it to Jack, and said, "If you have any questions in the future, you can call me anytime."
Jack received the business card, which was very common and crude. It was a thin white business card with the name, Director of the Audit Bureau of Province L, the People's Republic of China, and the following name, Bruce, followed by a mobile phone number. The back of the business card was blank.
With this, he asked with some surprise, "Are you a director?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said nothing more. The driver in front turned around, and he said with a kind of glorious pride, "Although his title is only the bureau Chief, his rank is deputy ministerial level."
While talking, he held out his hand again and introduced himself, "My name is Barry Cotton."
"Ah?"
Seeing Jack's surprised look, he added hurriedly, "How can a sparrow know the will of a swan? We will be colleagues in the future."
"Ah. Barry, hello. Please give me your support and consideration." Jack shook Barry's hand in a daze.
The deputy ministerial level was equivalent to a vice-governor, which was the highest-ranking official Jack had ever seen in real life. He was stunned for a moment, then remembered something suddenly, and said, "I remember the police academy is not so easy to get enrolled. I still need to meet a lot of conditions."
"You don't have to worry about that. I have already made arrangements for you."
Jack nodded and did not continue to ask more.
"Well, now it's getting late, you should also go to class. By the way, the audit is not yet open to the public, so this is only an experimental department. Today's conversation is between you and me. I hope we can call it a day. Don't leak it out, do you understand?"
"Oh, I see." Jack nodded. After a while, he asked, "Can I go now?"
"Of course."
"Goodbye, Director Cook."
"Goodbye."
Jack opened the driving door tentatively and saw that the middle-aged man and Barry didn't stop himself, so he pushed open the door and went out.
When he stood outside the car and closed the door, the middle-aged man in the car smiled and waved to him specially, then motioned Barry to drive.
After watching the car leave and disappear from his sight gradually, Jack could not help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
He thought his plan to kill Johnny was perfect and impeccable, but he did not expect his every move to be under the surveillance of others.
Even his family background was clearly investigated, and he was not aware of it. Was this his carelessness or was the auditing department really too capable?
At the thought of it, Jack frowned. All of a sudden, he felt cold. He held out his hand to touch his back and felt the underwear beneath his school uniform was soaked with sweat, even his school uniform became wet.
No matter how shrewd or calm he was, he was still a minor under the age of 18. How could he not feel nervous after such a sudden change?
Audit! What kind of department was this? He couldn't just listen to one side of the story and must check it carefully. Jack calm down his upset mood and walked to the school.
