The Water Police Division, like the Traffic Police Division, operates under a single team with two signs. Although it is the Water Police Department of the City Bureau, there is little interaction between the river patrols and the traffic police onshore.

Director Wang and Political Commissioner Ma can only meet Director Xu and Political Commissioner Cui when attending meetings at the City Bureau. The officers from the division rarely have the chance to interact with the traffic police division.

Han Yu worked at the Water Police Station for a year and served as a committee member for two years, but like Ma Jintao, Yang Yuan, and other water police, he had no business dealings with the traffic police division. Now that he’s transferred to the Smuggling Crime Investigation Branch, there’s even less opportunity for interaction.

With this "Binjiang Water Army Commander," highly valued by Secretary Lu, Mayor Wang, and Director Chen arriving, the traffic police division leadership naturally wouldn’t miss the chance.

Director Xu was busy with other matters and asked Political Commissioner Cui to accompany Han Yu for a tour of the Traffic Control Center, while Guo Weitao went with the office police to check for vehicles matching suspect descriptions.

The Traffic Control Center is indeed worth a look.

An entire floor is dedicated to the Binjiang Traffic Police Command Hall.

It’s spacious and bright, with a wall-sized traffic surveillance screen formed by multiple electronic screens, displaying real-time monitoring of major roads and intersections in Binjiang City. The 122 traffic accident report desk is here as well.

Without visiting a hospital, you wouldn’t know how many sick people there are.

Without coming here, you wouldn’t believe how many traffic accidents happen each day.

Previously, when the City Bureau hadn’t built a command center, for major police situations or emergencies, City Bureau leaders, even city leaders, would come here to direct operations. Now, with the City Bureau having a similarly high-tech command hall, leaders don’t frequent here as much, though the City Bureau command hall’s traffic surveillance signals are relayed from here.

After touring the Traffic Control Center, they went to visit the Traffic Police First Team, sharing a building with the division, at Political Commissioner Cui’s invitation.

No matter where they toured, Political Commissioner Cui made grand introductions.

No matter where they toured, police and auxiliary officers enthusiastically applauded.

On Political Commissioner Cui’s request, the division’s comprehensive office director even had a police officer take photographs throughout the visit.

Han Yu felt awkward, though further awkwardness lay ahead.

After going upstairs and downstairs, inside and outside, he was finally led by Political Commissioner Cui to a large conference room. Upon entering, he saw it was filled with police who had just attended a meeting. Director Xu had returned, seated in the audience, smiling and applauding upon seeing him.

There aren’t many heroes in the Binjiang Police System, and even fewer nationwide anti-flood models.

Political Commissioner Cui wouldn’t miss the opportunity, passionately inviting Han Yu to share his stories on stage, encouraging all police to earnestly learn, even taking out a notebook to sit beside Director Xu.

He was here to seek their assistance in a case, yet ended up sharing heroic storytelling! But with Director Xu, Political Commissioner Cui, and other division leaders seated in the audience, Han Yu had no choice but to brace himself and step onto the platform, saluting before sharing his experiences from over the years.

However, he spoke little of his achievements, focusing instead on the situation of water security in the Yangtze River’s Binjiang section, the history of Binjiang Water Police, and his master’s contributions to river security and Binjiang Water Police building before passing.

Then he recounted the 1998 flood rescue at Beihu.

About flood rescue, Han Yu felt no pressure, having joined a battlefield heroes storytelling team during a sea battle exercise months ago, completing many sessions. Moreover, leaders valued high-quality, emotionally touching storytelling.

As expected, the police in the audience felt emotional, with several female comrades moved to tears.

Political Commissioner Cui, seeing Han Yu finished, immediately invited Director Xu to take the stage.

Director Xu rubbed his eyes and, with deep sorrow, recalled Xu Sanye’s tale shared by Han Yu. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

A comrade who once led Linghai Police. Despite a shrinking position, he didn’t give up when relegated to the riverside, choosing to manage river security proactively, even fully supporting the Water Police Station’s establishment.

Until working himself ill and passing away young, he remained a police station chief, unlike his apprentice Salted Fish, who received many honors.

Unnoticed, dutifully fulfilling his responsibilities, exemplified perfectly by him.

The audience was moved again. Female comrades were in tears.

Director Xu finished, and Political Commissioner Cui concluded, urging all police and auxiliary officers in the division to learn from Han Yu and his master...

Listening to Director Xu recount his master’s youthful stories, Han Yu felt a deep pang, unable to hold back tears. Seeing everyone ready to take group photos, he quickly wiped his tears, forced himself to compose for cooperation.

Luncheon was arranged at a restaurant diagonally opposite the division.

There weren’t many people, only main division leaders and Han Yu, Guo Weitao, the guests.

As Director Xu mentioned, today’s themes were to thank Han Yu for his storytelling at the Traffic Police Division and to welcome Guo Weitao back "home."

Nevertheless, his earlier claims of not drinking refer only to drinking less compared to elders like his master, Captain Wei, and Director Jiang, and his refusal to urge others to drink pertains solely to himself, not to Political Commissioner Cui, the two deputy division commanders, or the comprehensive office director.

Though Han Yu long decided never to drink, once at the table with the mood elevated, sticking to principles becomes impossible!

Political Commissioner Cui said, "I’ll finish mine, you just need a sip, just for formality," mirrored by the two deputy division commanders.
