Inside the hotpot restaurant, the students were happily eating hotpot and singing songs. Since they had taken down two of New York's top gangs, there was naturally no one left to rob them.
At this moment, Uncle Zhong pulled Huang Wen into the back kitchen. Uncle Zhong looked at Huang Wen with some worry and said, "Xiao Wen, will something go wrong? Although I haven't heard of those two gangs, with so many firearms, they must be much more powerful than the Golen Gang and the Star Gang..."
"Don't worry, Uncle Zhong. We have a police sergeant from the legitimate side and a young master from the underworld here. There won't be any problems. Besides, even if something really goes wrong, don't I still have me?" Huang Wen smiled, shook his head, and gently reassured him, "With me here, Chinatown won't have any trouble!"
"Xiao Wen, what exactly are those abilities you displayed?" Uncle Zhong hesitated for a moment, then looked into Huang Wen's eyes and asked, "Even if your family has inherited martial arts, it shouldn't be this powerful. If your father had these abilities, he wouldn't have met with an accident..."
"Do you know, Uncle Zhong, I actually died once, right after my father died..." Huang Wen fell silent for a moment, then looked at Uncle Zhong and said, "At that moment, I seemed to have undergone some change."
"I understand..." Uncle Zhong seemed to comprehend something and smiled with relief, "That's your dad looking after you after his death. So, you must live well. Oh, by the way, Xiao Wen, you're not young anymore; it's time to find a partner..."
"Cough, cough!" Huang Wen's expression changed slightly, caught off guard by Uncle Zhong's attack. He quickly changed the subject, "Uncle Zhong, I'm hungry too. I'm going to eat first!"
"Don't go! Do you want Uncle Zhong to help you find someone? I heard... why are you running so fast?" Uncle Zhong was speaking when he realized Huang Wen had already vanished from his spot like a blur, leaving Uncle Zhong to shake his head helplessly.
"Teacher, why did you suddenly come out from the door? Didn't I just see you go into the back kitchen?" Max, who had drunk some beer, scratched his head in confusion, "No, I can't drink anymore; I'm already having hallucinations..."
"Ding-a-ling!" At that moment, Jack's phone rang. Jack stood up; he hadn't been drinking, as he still had subsequent matters to handle.
"Teacher, my uncle is here," Jack nodded at Huang Wen and whispered.
"Okay, you go handle it. I won't show my face." Huang Wen waved his hand, sat next to Max, and directly took Max's cup. "If you can't drink, drink a little less. We don't advocate forcing drinks here."
"Yes, Teacher, I understand." Max sobered up a bit, smiled at Huang Wen, and ate the hotpot heartily.
There was a hint of disappointment in Jack's eyes; he had actually wanted his uncle to meet Huang Wen. However, Jack quickly remembered that Kingpin also had his son, Richard Fisk, interact with Huang Wen, which made him feel a bit better.
Soon, Jack walked out. Bullseye glanced at Jack but didn't stop him. He had also heard Huang Wen's words earlier, and more importantly, Bullseye knew that Jack's background was not simple.
As Jack had just walked out, police cars arrived in Chinatown, surrounding the already immobilized gang members. A middle-aged man stepped out of a police car, smiling with relief, "Jack, you made the right choice to become a police officer. You've done very well, and you've made a great contribution this time!"
"Thank you for the compliment, Chief Andy." Jack also smiled excitedly. Even though his background was strong, without corresponding abilities and merits, it wouldn't be easy to climb the ranks. But now, his abilities had been showcased, and his merits were sufficient!
"Where is your teacher?" Chief Andy gestured for his subordinates to load the gang members into the cars, looked around, and his gaze lingered on Bullseye. He communicated in code, "When can these people move? And why is Kingpin's enforcer here?"
"Hammerhead and Tombstone came for Kingpin's son, Richard. He's also the teacher's student. However, the teacher said not to involve Chinatown and Richard in this matter. I've already prepared my statement and will give it to my uncle later." Jack didn't forget about Max and also communicated in code.
"Hmm, it's a good thing that you can get to know such a powerful individual and even learn some abilities," Chief Andy nodded. "The credit for this incident, plus the evidence provided by Chief Inspector Duke, is enough to remove your precinct chief and promote you!"
"Becoming a precinct chief at such a young age will be a significant highlight on your resume. It will make things much easier for you later, no matter which path you choose!"
"So, Duke and Hammerhead colluded?" Jack also understood. Chief Inspector Duke was indeed the person behind the precinct chief, but someone in that position wasn't so easy to move.
Since Chief Inspector Duke was actively showing goodwill, there was no need to remain enemies with him. After all, having the support of another chief inspector would be enough to solidify his position as precinct chief, and the price would be to let this matter pass.
"Hmm, it's good that you understand. There will be a press conference tomorrow, so make sure your report and everything else are ready and don't cause any delays!" Chief Andy patted Jack's shoulder and instructed, "Also, you need to personally take these people back, so go say goodbye to your teacher."
"Okay." Jack nodded and quickly walked towards the hotpot restaurant.
"Tell Kingpin that his ambition is already known to all those who care. The main reason everyone tacitly agrees is that they don't want too much commotion and desire a stable environment. If he truly disrupts the order of New York and crosses the line, then don't blame us for being impolite!" Chief Andy glanced at Bullseye and said coldly.
"Heh heh, First Deputy Chief? What a grand title! Talk to me again when you've dropped the 'Deputy' part!" Bullseye scoffed, his figure flashing, and he disappeared into the darkness. Since there was nothing left for him here, he saw no need to stay in the dark and endure the wind.
"Teacher, I have to go now. Max also needs to come with me to give his statement." After returning to the hotpot restaurant, Jack spoke to Huang Wen and Max.
"Okay, take good care of Max, and I wish you an early promotion to precinct chief." Huang Wen stood up, also patted Jack's shoulder, and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Teacher, I will definitely take good care of Max!" Jack nodded happily, pulled Max, and left the hotpot restaurant. They took a police car to the New York Police Headquarters. Such a major incident and achievement, with even Andy, the First Deputy Chief, mobilized, naturally wouldn't be handled at the precinct level.
After the students in the hotpot restaurant had eaten and drunk well, they each went home, but even in their dreams, they were still dreaming about the battles they had won.
