Chapter 448: Just a Bad Guy, That's All

Inside the hall, Chen Fan was eating with Old Liu, and the Bureau Chief took the initiative to toast Chen Fan.

And he specially presented a certificate.

"This is your senior professional title certificate."

Chen Fan said, "What level exactly is it?"

Old Liu said, "Roughly on par with me, I suppose. If you want to be promoted further, you'd basically need to lay the groundwork with papers, just to get a title like Professor or something."

Chen Fan said, speechless, "Then good-bye, I don't need it. Any further promotion would be a real hassle."

Qu Yiling said, "Teacher, then what level of personnel is Chen Fan equivalent to now?"

"About the same level as me. How should I put it — a little lower than the Bureau Chief, and then slightly higher than the captain over in Criminal Investigation. As for the pay, maybe seven or eight thousand, plus field allowances and such. Earning twenty thousand isn't hard for you."

"Wow, that's a lot of money."

Old Liu said, speechless, "Cut the sarcastic tone. My salary is only a little over ten thousand, and you still want to earn more than me?"

Chen Fan shrugged.

At this point, the Bureau Chief said, "Your status has been elevated, so there's a lot you'll need to learn in the future. There's also a core matter — you'll need to take on a student. Think it over and pick one to mentor yourself. After all, a senior forensic examiner must have a student."

Take on a student?

Chen Fan said, "I'll pick a girl—pretty, with big breasts, who coos softly when nothing's happening, is willing to spend money on her Master, and can warm my bed when I'm tired at night."

The Bureau Chief slammed a pair of handcuffs straight onto the table and said, "If you like, I can have a few colors custom-made for you."

Pfft— hahahahaha.

Everyone burst out laughing.

In the observation room, Teacher He said, "Teacher Qin Ming, what is Chen Fan's current status?"

"Higher than mine. When we meet, I have to address him as a leader. Damn it — this guy, on what grounds? Why can a genius just do whatever he wants? It's truly hateful."

Teacher He said, "Doesn't that mean, from now on, anyone who makes a move against Chen Fan will have to think twice?"

090

Qin Ming said, "They had to think twice before too. The forensic field has only produced one breakout talent like this. Just look at his mascot status — whoever touches him is done for. It's like, say, a criminal investigation captain getting revenge from a criminal — what do you think would happen? Within minutes, they'd dig him out even if he hid three feet underground. This must be handled strictly, or else who would still come to protect the public's property and safety?"

This point, everyone could understand.

At the dinner table, the Bureau Chief gave Chen Fan a piece of meat and said, "Try this — the free-range chicken here is quite good. I know you like eating strange and unusual things, so I had it specially prepared for you."

Chen Fan had just put it in his mouth.

"Since you're here, actually, take on a few more cases…"

Chen Fan immediately spat it out.

"You're all watching — I didn't eat it, I didn't eat it, I'm telling you, I really didn't eat it."

Pfft— hahahahaha.

Everyone watched, and the Bureau Chief said, "Sigh, this is my personal request."

Chen Fan said, "No gain, no early rise. How about this — the computers at our unit are due for an upgrade."

'The ones I use are all five years old, and you still want new ones? What do you need such new ones for?'

Chen Fan said, 'New technical upgrades and the like — don't you need computers for that?'

"There's new technology?"

Chen Fan said, "Nothing much in the way of new technology. I was just thinking of developing fingerprint restoration, or footprint restoration — once it's made, everyone can save some effort. However, you can't place too much hope in it, since there's always some margin of error. It just provides a direction."

"I'll arrange it for you right away. Look at the case first, look at the case first."

Chen Fan's face darkened as he looked at Old Liu.
