443: Chapter 280: Show of Power!_3 443: Chapter 280: Show of Power!_3 Pan Yuheng stood up with a “Huh” and said disdainfully, “I stood up, now what?”

“Come over to me.”

Pan Yuheng strode toward Tang Fei and said, “What’s the point?

Are you planning to kill someone in public?”

Bang!

Tang Fei threw a punch.

No one expected that Tang Fei would really dare to strike and injure someone, especially on his first day of work, daring to attack his own deputy team leader.

A normal leader, with even a little sense of the bigger picture, would first try to soothe the emotions of his subordinates, give them a little incentive, and then gradually work on aligning their thoughts.

Through give and take, everyone involved would get what they wanted.

Negotiation, after all, requires both talking and deciding.

Without any talk, you just start throwing punches?

Seeing Tang Fei’s actions, Tan Yu’s expression turned sharp, then returned to a perfectly surprised look.

Pan Yuheng hadn’t expected Tang Fei to get physical either—attacking one of your own within the Monitoring Bureau, are you tired of living?

Completely unprepared, he felt a powerful force hit his chest.

Then, his body involuntarily flew through the air.

While he was mid-air, he looked down and saw his chest caved in, like a collapsed mud wall or a dented tin shell.

He knew that his bones were broken.

No, the entire ribcage had collapsed inward.

“Pfft!”

Only then did he spit out the first mouthful of fresh blood.

Thud!

Pan Yuheng’s body slammed against the wall and then slowly slid down.

Silence!

A deathly silence!

Everyone’s eyes were wide open, staring at Tang Fei, at this reckless man who would strike one of his own without a word.

Everyone knew the Monitoring Bureau had a strict hierarchy and many rules.

Secret struggles were expected, but openly attacking a colleague in such a brazen way—Mad Dog, the chief of the bureau would personally twist off your head…

They looked at Tang Fei as if they were looking at a dead man.

“Does anyone else have an objection?” Tang Fei asked aloud, “If you have objections, stand up and come over to me like Captain Pan.”

“…”

No one stood up.

Certainly, no one would walk over to him like Captain Pan.

After all, the higher-ups would deal with him, so why bother provoking him?

“If there’s none…” Tang Fei looked around and said, “then let’s get acquainted again.

Hello everyone, I am the Second Squad Team Leader, Tang Fei.”

Wow!

A short and thin young man stood up and said in a deep voice, “Inspector Shen Lian reporting to the team leader.”

Tang Fei observed the man with a subdued aura before him and said, “Good, Shen Lian…

from now on, you are the deputy team leader of the Second Squad.”

“Thank you for your cultivation, team leader,” Shen Lian stood up straight and said, “I’ll be at your disposal for any tasks.”

“Mhm.” Tang Fei was quite satisfied with Shen Yan’s stance.

Buying a horse for its bones, the effect was already apparent.

Being the first to stand up and support him in this situation showed intelligence.

When choosing people, it’s best to start with their talent before considering their moral character and loyalty.

After all, Tang Fei wasn’t planning to marry him; it was enough if he could just complete the tasks given to him.

Everyone present saw Tang Fei appoint a deputy leader with just a sentence.

Regardless of how long this deputy team leader’s “life span” would be, it was an enormous opportunity.

As long as Tang Fei could secure his position as the Second Squad Team Leader, then his position as the deputy team leader would also be secured.

“Inspector Lin An reporting to the team leader.”

“Inspector Wang Hongbing reporting to the team leader.”

“Inspector Huang Hu reporting to the team leader.”

——

Everyone greeted Tang Fei in the manner Shen Yan did, standing up one by one to say hello.

Since they didn’t want to confront him directly, they might as well go with the flow and become just another wave in the ocean.

“Confidential Secretary Tan Yu reporting to the team leader,” Tan Yu said crisply.

After everyone had introduced themselves to Tang Fei, he nodded and said, “Now, let’s start the meeting.”

He glanced disdainfully at Pan Yuheng lying on the ground, bleeding profusely, and asked, “Would anyone be willing to take him to the hospital?”

Everyone sat frozen in place, not daring to make a move.

Who knew whether this was another test of his, to see who was firmly in Captain Pan’s camp?

You think I’m a fool?

“No one?” Tang Fei looked at Tan Yu and said, “You figure it out.”

“Yes,” Tan Yu responded, then went out to call for medical staff.

The Monitoring Bureau frequently went out to handle cases; injuries and deaths were routine.

Hence, the Monitoring Bureau had its own medical system.
