Chapter 334: Chapter 237: Buying People and Ships

The Second Squad Officer organized the police team and after six days and nights of investigation, they successfully captured those four bastards who stole the transforr.

This was not an ordinary theft, but one involving a water conservancy transforr used for flood control, which involved a large sum of money and endangered public safety, constituting the cri of sabotage of electrical equipnt.

The minimum sentence was three years, but people like them could expect to spend ten years in prison!

Compared to the major case resolved by the Second Squad Officer, Han Yu’s job was much simpler, mainly diating public security disputes.

For instance, when ships accidentally collided and conflicts arose between ship owners, his role was to diate; or when the Port Patrol Second Team and Developnt Zone Port Supervision Station encountered trouble during law enforcent, especially with violent resistance, he had to be a staunch support for the Port Supervision and Fishery Administration.

There were no major cases, just major incidents.

Yesterday morning, another fire outbreak on the water was extinguished.

An aging electrical circuit caused a fire on a cargo ship, spreading to the crew’s cabins and the engine room.

Upon receiving the distress call from the Port Supervision Bureau, ergency action was called for unit 001 and a tugboat mobilized from Binjiang Port by the Changhang Bureau to fight the blaze.

Although all the crew was rescued, and after battling the fire for over six hours it was extinguished, Han Yu still felt a lingering fear.

Because once the blaze was put out, a few Binjiang Port firefighters learned there were six gas cylinders in the cabin and rushed in to carry out all the red-hot cylinders.

At that mont, 001 was situated on the leeward side of the troubled cargo ship’s port side. Han Yu only saw several firefighters rushing in, not knowing what they were doing, and it was too late to stop them once he found out.

The potential for an explosion was had been eradicated, but what if those gas cylinders had exploded?

He heard reports on the radio in the morning about how brave those firefighters were, and it didn’t sit well with Han Yu. He couldn’t help but call Director Zhang.

"Everyone should understand the principle of thermal expansion and contraction; the gas cylinders were so hot from the fire, we were desperately using water to cool them down to prevent reignition. If the cylinder cracks due to heat, gas can leak out easily and explode!"

Worrying that Director Zhang wouldn’t take it seriously enough, Han Yu emphasized, "Of course, it’s good that nothing happened, but if sothing had, we would be managing funerals today! Also, the fire had already been extinguished, and there were no people in the cabin. If an explosion did happen, so what? Is it worth risking lives for?"

Those participating in yesterday’s rescue weren’t professional firefighters, just dock workers who had only been through a few fire training sessions.

Zhang Junyan got a clear picture of the situation and was startled, musing, "We were only focused on putting out the fire and failed to protect ourselves. This was reckless."

Han Yu hesitated then said in a low voice, "You can’t bla the firefighters; it was an issue with the on-site command."

"Old Gu probably considered the burning ship’s proximity to the dock too close. I’ll have a eting later and reflect on this carefully."

"Director Zhang, I’m not snitching on Director Gu, but mainly..."

"I understand, it’s not too late to nd. With so many cargo ships moored in our jurisdiction, with so many oil pipelines along the coast, so many oil depots and chemical warehouses, there are no minor issues concerning firefighting; we must strengthen our fire training."

Zhang Junyan flipped through the calendar, continuing, "Salted Fish, when you have ti, co help teach a class. If possible, we can organize a couple of joint fire drills."

"I can do the fire drills, but I’m not good at teaching."

"You’ve already obtained your interdiate professional title in firefighting, if not you, then who?"

Previously, office workers who gained professional titles could see salary increases comparable to technical specialists in public institutions. If one could earn a senior title, their salary and treatnt could even compare to those at the Full Departnt Level.

After all the hard work to reach the interdiate firefighting title, the superiors suddenly issued a docunt stating that governnt employees could no longer get a salary based on their titles like before, truly bad timing.

Han Yu was feeling a little depressed when Zhang Junyan changed the subject: "I almost forgot to tell you, Old Jiang has been transferred to Bailong Port Police Station."

Old Jiang is the good friend of my master, "Jiang Feijun."

He used to be the head of the Criminal Investigation Departnt at Binjiang Port Police Bureau but was removed from his position and assigned to Gaoru Port Police Station as an Instructor due to a murder case a few years ago.

Han Yu asked subconsciously, "Director Zhang, do you an Director Jiang is going to be the Director at Bailong Port?"

"Not Director, but still as an Instructor."

"A lateral move."

"What lateral move, it’s almost like being pushed into semi-retirent. We initially wanted him back at the bureau, but there was too much resistance."

Zhang Junyan lit a cigarette, then chuckled wryly, "We draw our salaries from the Port Authority; we must respect their opinions on personnel matters, and now they listen to the city authorities. No one dares to bring up anything related to that murder case now."

Being a bureau chief is indeed not easy...

Han Yu quickly responded, "I know, I’ll visit Director Jiang at Bailong Port when I have the ti."

"Not just to see Old Liu and Director Jiang, but also visit our bureau when you can."

"Alright."

The underlying ssage from his senior was clear - he should make more visits to the Changhang Bureau to beco familiar and prepare for a future transfer there.

Han Yu hung up the phone and was considering what would happen to the Dunship and 001 if he indeed got transferred to Changhang Bureau when his senior, Yu Zhen, dressed up beautifully, rode up on her light motorcycle.

"San’er, why haven’t you changed yet?"

"In a mont."

"Hurry up, don’t keep people waiting."

"Do we really have to go?"

"I’ve already told them."

"Secretary Lu is already taken care of, and we’ve saved my dad’s face, there’s no need to see her."

"I’ve asked Yu Zhen to tell her several tis, we can’t delay any longer, it will seem insincere."
