The head of Long City's police department looked through the window at the youthful, pretty young girls passing by on the street, and his heart immediately began to itch. He secretly thought that after work, he would go to one of his usual haunts and relax properly.
He hoped today would be a smooth day, with nothing happening, so he could go have some fun without worry.
Of course, there were some people in Long City he did not worry much about, because they were very law-abiding and rarely caused trouble. Those people were the Chinese and Indians. What worried him instead were Malaysia's indigenous people. Not a single one of those fellows was easy to deal with. They were the ones who caused trouble most of the time, and as an indigenous person himself, even he found it rather depressing!
There were not many officers left in the entire police department now. Even the usual posts were understaffed. Patrol personnel had been cut by more than two-thirds. Otherwise, he would not have kept staring out the window, constantly worried that something might happen.
The order to transfer personnel away had come from the palace. Although the safety of all Long City was important, palace orders had to be obeyed. Who paid his salary? Who funded his pleasures? Naturally, it was the current His Majesty!
If not for his uniform and his control over Long City's police force, he would merely have been a Nine to Five civil servant. Therefore, not only did he have to carry out the palace's order, he had to carry it out well and cooperate one hundred percent.
As for the fact that nearly all the police force had been transferred away, what if the people of Long City needed officers or some incident occurred?
