"Team Leader Shen, what did you say? You're our new director?"
Seeing Shen Lang, Old Luo looked disbelieving and cautiously probed.
"What? You think I'd joke about this kind of thing?"
Shen Lang looked at Old Luo and smiled, "My uncle said the personnel appointments have been made. If you don't believe me, you can check the internal documents. But you can check later. Inform the others that your new director has arrived."
"Okay... I guess."
Hearing Shen Lang's words, Old Luo, still in shock, walked into the office and shouted to everyone, "Everyone, put down what you're doing. I have some big news to announce."
"Old Luo, aren't we going to lunch? What big news is there?"
Seeing Old Luo enter, a female colleague smiled and said.
"I'm not talking about that news, but another big piece of news."
Old Luo shouted, "Everyone, our new director has arrived."
"What? The new director is here?"
Upon hearing Old Luo's words, everyone in the room froze, then stood up in unison. They were all curious about who the new director would be.
However, the next second, when Shen Lang walked in, everyone was dumbfounded.
"Team Leader Shen, why are you here?"
Yu Youwei and everyone else in the room thought Shen Lang was just visiting, so they looked shocked and asked.
"Everyone, you must know me, and many of you have dealt with me before, so I won't introduce my identity further."
Shen Lang walked to the highest seat in the office and smiled at everyone below, "Your new director is me. I'll trouble everyone to take care of me from now on."
"Honestly, I'm a bit shocked by this appointment. After all, I'm about to resign. However, since it's an appointment, I'll accept it."
"If anyone has any objections to this appointment, you can speak up now. I'll listen to everyone's opinions humbly. If you don't speak now, I'll assume you all fully approve of me."
Shen Lang scratched his head and said, "I'm a lazy person. I might only work one day out of ten and be absent from the Martial Guard Department for nine days. So, I'll need everyone to put in more effort for many things in the future."
"I don't have many rules. You can all relax a bit, but orders must be obeyed, and tasks must be completed on time."
After speaking, Shen Lang raised his hand and smiled, "I've said my piece. I'll give you five minutes to voice your opinions. If there are no objections, please raise your hands to show your agreement with me serving as your director."
The people in the Criminal Investigation Department of the Martial Guard Department were all highly intelligent, well-educated elites and prodigies. When Gu Qinghan was in charge, everyone was convinced, as Gu Qinghan was truly outstanding, even beyond their reach.
This was an extremely complex department. They could unite, but they could also refuse to obey anyone. Therefore, few high-ranking officials in the Martial Guard Department dared to take charge of this department.
After all, this department was like a thorny vine. If you could grasp it firmly, you could achieve anything. If you couldn't, you might end up hurting yourself.
However, these elites and prodigies, upon hearing Shen Lang's words, immediately raised their hands in unison, without a hint of hesitation.
It was a joke. Although Shen Lang had joined the Martial Guard Department the shortest time, any one of the things he had done was a monumental achievement. The least significant of which was capturing the notorious bandit Nalan Wushuang, which brought great honor to the Nanhling Martial Guard Department among the Martial Guard Departments in Tiannan Province.
Not to mention that Shen Lang later led the team to win the grand martial arts competition, then went to Yang Country to capture the Asian drug king, and single-handedly challenged Yang Country's martial arts, killing Yang Country's strongest fighter, Ryūyū Danma Moru.
In the current Martial Guard Department, apart from Song Shadao, who could suppress Shen Lang, who else could compare with Shen Lang?
Whether it was martial arts, medicine, or even achievements, Shen Lang was undoubtedly the second most capable person in the Nanhling Martial Guard Department. Who wouldn't be convinced?
"Alright, thank you all for your support. I thank you here."
Seeing everyone raise their hands without thinking, Shen Lang smiled and said, "I'll be relying on all of you from now on."
"Director Shen, hello!"
After Shen Lang finished speaking, Yu Youwei took the lead, and all sixty-eight people in the office shouted excitedly.
"Everyone, don't be so formal. Just be yourselves."
Shen Lang found a seat, narrowed his eyes, scanned all the members, and said, "Your hair is greasy, and you look listless. You must not have rested for several days. You've worked hard."
"Next, the second order from your director is that all of you will go home in two hours. You will all have a two-day holiday, and you will return to work after two days."
"Ah..."
Upon hearing Shen Lang's words, Yu Youwei and the others were stunned. No one expected Shen Lang's second order after taking office to be to give everyone a holiday.
A holiday?
When was the last time they had a holiday? It seemed to be two years ago, and it was only for half a day.
However, Yu Youwei quickly grasped the key point and asked Shen Lang, "Director, you just said the second order was a two-day holiday. What was the first order?"
"Slap—"
After Yu Youwei finished speaking, Shen Lang took a black needle bag out of his pocket and placed it on the table. Then he smiled and said, "The first order is for you to line up, and I will treat each of you one by one."
"Damn it, the oldest among you is over fifty, and the youngest is in his early twenties. Looking at you, everyone has some kind of illness. I can't stand it."
"Ah..."
As soon as he said this, Yu Youwei and the others were completely dumbfounded. This was far beyond their expectations.
"What? You don't want to be treated?"
Seeing their reactions, Shen Lang was slightly taken aback and said, "If you don't want to be treated, you can go home on holiday right now. Don't force yourselves. I dislike forcing people the most."
"Don't say that, Director. We want to be treated. How could we not want to be?"
After Shen Lang finished speaking, Yu Youwei hurriedly said, "We've not only heard of your miraculous medical skills that can bring the dead back to life, but we've also witnessed them with our own eyes. I've personally experienced them. We've long been hoping for a chance to have you treat us when you have time."
The Martial Guards of the Criminal Investigation Department might be awe-inspiring in public, but they constantly worked overtime and stayed up late, sometimes not resting for half a year or even a year. Therefore, even the youngest members had at least three chronic illnesses, let alone the older ones.
With Shen Lang, a divine doctor, helping them, they were eager for it. How could they refuse?
As Yu Youwei's voice fell, thunderous cheers erupted in the office: "Director Shen is mighty, Director Shen is eternal!"
