Liu Weijun shrugged, "I really like this guy!"

"Me too, hahaha." Zhou Yang said while glancing at Gao Bo, teasing, "As long as Gao Bo isn’t scared!"

"When was I ever scared?" Gao Bo immediately retorted.

"I have no objections either," Wu Kang said lastly.

Even Zhao Hua, who was usually reticent, nodded.

With everyone’s agreement, Zhang Wenjun finally reached out and shook hands with Zhao Bai, "Then I won’t be polite, Mr. Zhao, thank you!"

"I’m the one who should be thanking you. If it wasn’t for..."

Zhao Bai intended to once again emphasize the risks everyone took last night for their rescue, but as he began, he seemed to remember Wang Chaojun, "Forget it, no need to say more, I’ll leave Scorpion to you guys, please take good care of it for me!"

"Don’t worry, Scorpion will be the eighth member of our Dragon and Tiger Assault Team from now on!"

Zhang Wenjun promised earnestly.

Afterwards, the dog trainer took out a manual and some documents, handing them to Gu Ji, who was closest, "These are some basic knowledge about police dog training, along with Scorpion’s daily habits, preferences, and favorite food. If you have any questions, you can contact me anytime!"

"Alright, thank you."

Gu Ji took the documents and manual, flipping through them briefly.

For some reason, he subconsciously thought of Antonie Yassen from the air crash checkpoint, who was once an advisor for military and police dogs, surely skilled in training them.

Ever since they joined the Dragon and Tiger Assault Team.

The difficulty of the first task they performed was so high; there’s no doubt future tasks would be even more challenging, and the demand for counter-terrorism dogs would only grow.

For instance, in this recent mission.

If they had a professional police dog, perhaps it could have sniffed out the armed men hiding behind the fourth floor’s safety door earlier, or sped up the process of finding hostages.

Invisibly reducing the mission’s difficulty.

Closing the manual, Gu Ji looked down at Scorpion, only to find the creature lifting its head, with deep brown eyes, slightly drooping and squinting, looking as if it was saying, "What are you looking at?"

Amused, Gu Ji couldn’t help but smile.

But the next second, his face turned cold, with eyes sharp as a knife staring at it intently.

Instantly, Scorpion’s fur bristled, and it immediately crouched, baring its teeth at Gu Ji.

"What’s going on, Scorpion!"

"Hahaha, it’s nothing, I was the one who provoked him first."

The dog trainer thought Scorpion was causing trouble again, but fortunately, Gu Ji quickly interrupted him.

He thought that the ferocity he’d accumulated from multiple real combats in the checkpoint would be enough to intimidate this police dog, but to his surprise, Scorpion’s savageness was far greater than he imagined.

This matched Gu Ji’s temperament perfectly.

For a counter-terrorism dog, if it were scared so easily, what the hell would fieldwork even mean!

After signing off on the handover procedures, Gu Ji and the others happily took Scorpion with them to the airport, securing it for live cargo transport.

Returning from Jinzhou to Ningzhou Lu Kou International Airport, it was already five in the evening.

Li Ruilin specially sent a car to take them back to the team.

As soon as they entered the Dragon Tiger Assault Team’s grounds, they saw several special forces officers from the second team approaching, each one excitedly welcoming them and congratulating them on completing the 324 action.

"Congratulations, Mr. Bi, Mr. Zhang, your hard work has been for the nation and the people!"

"Move along, Hong Daiqiang, don’t give us that pretentious crap!"

Bi Xin and Zhang Wenjun were old acquaintances with the second team.

The one they referred to as "Hong Daiqiang" was the leader of the second team, with a square head sporting a buzz cut, except for the more pronounced crow’s feet.

Hong Daiqiang, after exchanging a few laughs with the two, suddenly turned to Gu Ji and his group, "By the way, who’s Gu Ji in your team?"

"Gu Ji?"

Zhang Wenjun was momentarily stunned, then looked over.

He saw the young man in a black SWAT training uniform, with cropped hair, a beauty mark, slightly raised sword-shaped eyebrows, and piercing eyes.

Hong Daiqiang’s eyes lit up immediately.

"So this is Night Owl!"

"He looks really young, probably hasn’t been on the force for long, right?"

"So young, yet capable of commanding such a large and dangerous operation, just like Mr. Lei back in the day!"

...

All of a sudden, the officers from the second team behind Hong Daiqiang started whispering excitedly.

Upon hearing the name "Night Owl."

Gu Ji and Gao Bo were briefly puzzled.

After some casual exchanges, he learned that this nickname was given to him privately by the second team.

After the action ended last night, Hong Daiqiang, being the tactical commander, naturally was curious about the operation’s process and outcome, so Lei Wanshan showed him the action video.

Unexpectedly, after watching it, he was immediately captivated by Gu Ji’s extraordinary command skills.

So much so, that the next day, as soon as work began, Hong Daiqiang even paused training to show the highlight video to his officers for detailed study.

To be honest.

Since they’re all part of the Ningzhou City Bureau’s special police circle, they naturally had heard about how "Gu Ji" stood out in some major case apprehensions.

But to these second-team officers.

Being able to enter the Dragon and Tiger Assault Team, one of the "Top Ten National Anti-Terrorism Units," meant everyone was a top-tier elite, so they didn’t think much of it initially.

However, seeing his command in action firsthand today, they were amazed.

Gu Ji’s night combat command abilities now were feared to even outshine their team leader, Hong Daiqiang.

It’s precisely because of Gu Ji’s outstanding night combat skills.
