I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week Chapter 2026: Not Strong or Well-Equipped

Chapter 2026: Not Strong or Well-Equipped

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After exchanging a few polite words with Yun Shu, the group left Furong Xiang and drove to Yan Ci’s home.

When Chen Teng and Zhou Xinyu saw Yan Ci’s large apartment, which measured over 200 square meters, they were a bit surprised.

Given the property prices in Linxi Bay, such a large apartment must be worth at least 40 million yuan.

Even with a mortgage, the monthly payments would be in the hundreds of thousands.

Not many could afford that, so they a.s.sumed it might be rented.

Once they arrived at Yan Ci’s home, they chatted briefly before Lin Yi stood up to leave. Yan Ci accompanied him to the elevator.

“With my aunt staying here for the next few days, I won’t be able to have you over. But don’t worry, I’ll make it up to you later.”

After saying this, Yan Ci gave Lin Yi a quick kiss on the cheek.

“Don’t worry, you’re not getting away from me.”

Lin Yi playfully patted Yan Ci’s behind and gave it a little squeeze, prompting her to playfully scold him before he left her home.

After exiting the building, Lin Yi decided not to go anywhere else but to visit w.a.n.g Ying, as it had been a while since he last saw her.

However, after some thought, he realized he saw Li Chuhan the least, so he changed his route and headed to her place.

He wanted to spend more time with her in the limited time he had.

“Brother Lin, you’re back.”

When Lin Yi opened the door and entered, he found Qiao Xin there as well.

“Your nightgown is so short it barely covers your behind. Have some decency; it’s indecent.”

“Oh come on, I’m still young. I need to have some fun, or I won’t be able to when I get older,” Qiao Xin shamelessly replied.

At that moment, Li Chuhan approached and handed Lin Yi a pair of slippers.

“Was work busy today? Did you strain your wound?”

“I’m doing mostly desk work, so it’s not as tiring as you think. Don’t worry.” Lin Yi thumped his chest and said.

“Besides, with my physical condition and the medicine you brought me, I’m almost fully recovered.”

“Even so, you need to rest more. Any vigorous activity could easily reopen the wound.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to you.”

Li Chuhan smiled gently. “Xinxin, help Brother Lin change his bandages. I’ll go make dinner.”

“No need, I already had dinner,” Lin Yi interjected.

“Then I’ll prepare your medicine. The wound still needs to be disinfected.”

“Stop, stop, stop. You two go sit on the sofa. I didn’t come here to be pampered. I’ll handle it myself.”

Qiao Xin moved skillfully, finding the medical kit with ease.

Since she wasn’t as proficient as Li Chuhan, she often took on the task of nursing, and her technique had become quite efficient and straightforward.

In less than ten minutes, the bandage was changed, and the anti-inflammatory and healing drops were administered.

In addition, Qiao Xin thoughtfully brought some fruit for Lin Yi, making for a very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.

“Brother Lin, has anything interesting happened at the precinct lately? Tell me about it.”

“No major cases yet, but we’ve got a tricky inheritance dispute that might take some time to resolve.”

“Inheritance disputes aren’t interesting,” Qiao Xin commented. “Homicide cases are much more exciting.”

“Don’t say that. You can’t joke about such things.”

“Got it, Brother Lin,” Qiao Xin replied with a cheeky grin.

After tending to Lin Yi’s wound, the three of them sat on the sofa, chatting and watching TV, enjoying a rare moment of leisure.

Ring, ring, ring!

Around 10 PM, Lin Yi received a call from Li Xianghui, who sounded a bit urgent.

“Where are you?”

“At home. What’s up?”

“I can’t believe you forgot. The crackdown operation starts in the next few days. We’re all back at the station. Hurry up and get over here.”

“I completely forgot about that,” Lin Yi laughed. “I’m on my way now.”

“Hurry up. We’re waiting on you now.”

“Got it. I’ll be there in twenty minutes.”

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yi got up from the sofa, and Li Chuhan stood up as well.

“Is something happening at the precinct?”

Lin Yi nodded. “I need to head over and probably won’t be back tonight.”

“Please be careful with your injury. Avoid any intense physical activity, or the wound could reopen,” Li Chuhan reminded him.

“I will.”

Lin Yi gently held Li Chuhan’s head and kissed her on the forehead. “Wait for me at home.”

“Brother Lin, I want a kiss too,” Qiao Xin teased.

“I’d rather kick you. Get lost.”

“Hehe.”

Lin Yi grabbed his coat and left the house, taking a taxi to the Xinshan precinct.

As soon as he walked through the main entrance, he felt a tense atmosphere permeating the entire precinct, like the calm before a storm.

Lin Yi casually made his way to Li Xianghui’s office and found that the entire Criminal Investigation Team was there, looking as if they were preparing for a major event.

“Judging by the looks of things, it seems like the operation is starting tonight?”

Li Xianghui nodded. “There’s intel that Bai Yongshou will be at the Qianjiang Bathhouse tonight. The higher-ups are in a meeting now, and as soon as it’s over, we’ll move in.”

“The Qianjiang Bathhouse…” Lin Yi muttered.

“You know the place?”

Lin Yi nodded. “It’s not great. The staff are not attractive, their skills are mediocre, and it’s overpriced. Nowhere near as good as Huaqing Lake. The only advantage is that it’s safe.”

Everyone, “…”

“Be serious. We’re not talking about that,” Li Xianghui said.

“We’ll be moving in soon, and the Songjiang precinct team will be joining us. We can’t afford to slip up this time.”

“I get it, but you all seem too tense,” Lin Yi said nonchalantly.

“Bai Yongshou is nothing to worry about. You’re all making me nervous.”

“It’s not what you think. Bai Yongshou isn’t the issue; we’re certain he won’t escape tonight. Our main concern is making sure the Songjiang precinct team doesn’t take all the credit,” Li Xianghui explained.

“This isn’t just about earning points with the bosses—it’s about our own reputation. Otherwise, we’ll be seen as second-rate by our peers.”

Li Xianghui’s talk of being “second-rate” was a bit exaggerated.

But opportunities for joint operations like this were rare, and if they managed to capture the suspect, they’d have bragging rights in front of other precincts.

“There’s no need to be so stressed. The Xinshan precinct is strong and well-equipped. What’s there to be afraid of?”

“Why are you looking at me when you say ‘strong and well-equipped’?” Gu Yiran interjected.

“Pure coincidence, don’t overthink it,” Lin Yi said, glancing at Gu Yiran.

“Besides, your size doesn’t exactly scream ‘strong and well-equipped.'”

“Screw you. I’ll kill you.”

“Come on, you two. It’s not the time for jokes. Let’s stay focused,” Zhang Hui said, cigarette in mouth.

“Brother Hui, even you’re like this? What’s there to worry about? Let’s just go in and handle it.”

“The problem is, the other side doesn’t have much to worry about, so we’re concerned,” Zhang Hui replied.
