Outside the venue.
Team Leader Yuan of the Special Investigation Unit of the Joint Protection Bureau had just come over to hand in a document and didn't leave immediately, standing to the side leafing through the materials distributed at the meeting.
This year's slight climate fluctuations had indeed brought quite a few troubles, increasing everyone's workload significantly.
As he was pondering, he heard someone calling him from not far away.
"Old Yuan! Long time no see, congratulations on the promotion!"
The person was in his forties, quite robust, with a neat buzz cut and a formidable-looking face that didn't exactly invite warmth, even when he wore a smile.
Team Leader Yuan smiled lightly as he shook hands with the man, "Captain Wen. With your experience, your promotion isn't far off either."
"I still have a long way to go. Tsk, after your promotion, you seem much more imposing than before."
They were old acquaintances and spoke more casually.
