The second floor of the Patrol Department fell silent for a moment.
People passing through the corridor subconsciously lightened their steps and held their breath.
At the doors of the other squad offices along the wall, many patrol officers hung their heads low, pretending to be busy. In reality, their fearful eyes were fixed on the figure in the black leather jacket as he slowly walked away.
Some of them glanced toward Team Three.
Their expressions were complicated. Those on good terms with him went over to chat casually with Yang Wangtao, seemingly offering words of comfort.
Others subconsciously kept their distance, not wanting to get drawn into the conflict.
The commotion quickly died down. The office door closed, and Team Three was quiet once more.
Yang Wangtao walked into his captain's office, his expression unchanged. Before settling in, he called out.
"Xiaochen, Xiaochao, come in for a moment."
As he spoke, Lu Chao and Chen Xiao exchanged a look and followed him in.
