Chapter: 4475

For Li Yalin himself, this approach might leave him feeling ashamed, but he had no other choice at present.

So, he picked up the intercom and issued his final command as chief inspector, ordering all special task force members to immediately withdraw from the Fee Group headquarters building.

The withdrawal of the special task force formally declared the failure of this capture operation.

Journalists were waiting for the police spokesperson to explain the situation. The aging Li Yalin then stepped forward to face all the journalists.

At that moment, countless reporters, armed with long and short questions, shouted out their various inquiries at Li Yalin with all their might.

Sorry to take up everyone's time as well as the Fee Group's, including yours. This capture operation has failed due to mistakes in information and decision-making, and our special task force has already withdrawn. The Fee Group can now resume normal operations immediately.

The journalists still wanted to ask questions, but Li Yalin directly opened his mouth and said: "I know everyone wants to ask what's going on this time. This failure is mainly due to my own mistakes. I've recently been affected by negative physical and mental factors, and with age, I'm not suitable for handling such a major case anymore, so I've already resigned from my position as chief inspector and applied for early retirement."

The media reporters present were taken aback.

No one expected the Chinese-American detective with an excellent reputation to suddenly announce his early retirement.

Li Yalin said with a guilty face: "Regarding the recent cases in New York, I personally apologize. I couldn't foresee the crime and stop it in time, which is my failure as a police officer. I'd like to say sorry to the people of New York and across America!"

Having said that, Li Yalin bowed deeply towards the camera.

Then, without waiting for the media reporters to ask questions, he turned around and left the scene under the protection of a few police officers.

It didn't take long for Li Yalin's decision to retire early to spread through all major news outlets.

At the same time, Leaf Chen was quietly watching Xiao Qiui rehearsing when he also received the push notification about this news.

When he saw it, his expression showed some surprise but quickly returned to normal.

Leaf Chen and Li Yalin had no grudge against each other, and from the bottom of their hearts, they didn't hope he would retire early in such a way. However, the Fei Hao Yang incident put them on opposite sides in reality, so the contradiction couldn't be reconciled, and one side had to bear the bitter fruit of failure for this thing.

Moreover, Li Yalin had already investigated Chen Zhaojing's restaurant, and now he was retiring early, which Xiao Qiui saw as a good thing at least, since it wouldn't bring too much pressure to Chen Zhaojing afterwards.

On his way back, friend An Chongqiu also called him, asking anxiously, "Old Li, what's going on? Did the higher-ups take away your gun?"

"Yes," Li Yalin said with a bitter smile. "This wave of public opinion is too fierce, and I can only be pushed out to solicit some sympathy."

An Chongqiu sighed and opened his mouth, saying, "Actually, you shouldn't have gone after those villains..."

Li Yalin shrugged helplessly, saying, "Too late now, anyway, my personality doesn't allow me to turn a blind eye to such violent criminal behavior."

An Chongqiu nodded and asked him, "So what are your plans from now on?"

Li Yalin said, "I'll go back to the police station to hand over some work and officially start my retirement tomorrow."

As he was speaking, something occurred to him, and he opened his mouth again, saying, "How's Grandpa doing lately? I really should go visit him in Los Angeles... He got sick this time, and I haven't been there to see him..."

An Chongqiu said, "Don't bother going to Los Angeles anymore. Grandma wants to go to New York to watch Miss Qiui's concert, and she's asking us kids to come too. Grandpa is already under her influence, so we'll all go together at noon tomorrow." JrNovels.com
