I am the strongest sheriff on the surface

In the North China United Region, Dongyang City belongs to the No. [-] Senior High School, Class [-], Senior Three.

The warm sunshine in May quietly filled the classroom, and the title pages of the books on the desks were gently rolled up by the gentle breeze, making a rustling sound.

In the classroom near the window, sat a boy with short hair and fine features. Although his black sportswear was slightly faded, he was clean and tidy. He was looking at the basketball court downstairs.

"The results of the last mock exam will be issued below, and the students whose names are called will come up to collect them."

A teacher stood on the podium with a serious voice.

"Xiao Cheng, you are still number one in your grade, don't be proud, keep working hard."

The boy sitting by the window turned around and walked towards the podium in response.

Amidst the admiration, the corner of the boy's mouth was slightly raised, and his spirit was high.

After receiving the report card, under the envious eyes of his classmates, Xiao Cheng returned to his seat as if no one else was there.

Mathematics: 120.

Chinese: 110.

English: 100.

Physics: 100.

……

"It's really hard to guess the mind of the person who wrote this question."

Seeing that 10 points were deducted for Chinese, Xiao Cheng complained softly.

"Mom and Dad should be relieved this time."

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, and the door of the classroom was pushed open.

"Teacher Li, interrupt me."

The visitor spoke quickly, and without waiting for the teacher on the podium to answer, he immediately turned his head and shouted:
"Xiao Cheng, come out."

Seeing that it was the dean, Xiao Cheng didn't dare to neglect, and walked out of the classroom with a puzzled expression.

A gust of wind blew by, and the report card on Xiao Cheng's desk fell to the ground, with the column of total score clearly written 700 on it.

……

Six years later.

At the gate of a savings bank on a street corner in Dongyang City, a young man in his 20s tightened his military overcoat and walked quickly towards a slightly bustling street without turning his eyes.

This street is an ordinary northern open-air farmers' market, with a row of low street-facing stores on both sides. The roadside is crowded with small merchants and hawkers who set up stalls. Candied haws, roasted sweet potatoes, frozen pears and other goods can be seen everywhere.

The young man who walks alone is Xiao Cheng, with neat short hair and full of heroism between his brows, but now wrapped in a military overcoat and washed white jeans, he looks a bit ordinary.

Following bursts of yelling, Xiao Cheng turned into an unremarkable alley.

This alleyway was the only way he had to go home, and it was very secluded under the cover of tall buildings around.

As soon as he took two steps, Xiao Cheng, who was walking with his head bowed, was suddenly pushed from behind.

"Boy, ask for money!"

With a low shout, two big men in military coats forced Xiao Cheng into a corner.

Two people, one tall and one short, one fat and one thin, one held a hatchet and the other a knife, viciously gesticulating and slashing.

"Brother, do you think I look rich?"

Xiao Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then put on a flattering smile: "Do you have any? I'll lend you three cents."

The attitude is very sincere.

The short and fat man didn't listen to Xiao Cheng's nonsense at all: "Hurry up, or you will be left here today."

"I have no money." Xiao Cheng leaned against the wall, waved his hands again and again, and replied with a look of fear:
"I really don't have it. I'm thirsty all day, and I open my mouth when I sleep. We are all from Dongyang. If I really have one, I will definitely take it..."

"Don't chat with me here, I just saw you withdrawing money from the savings bank." Another tall and thin man cut his neck and interrupted Xiao Cheng who was running on the train, "Don't worry, otherwise we will do it ourselves. "

Seeing that this matter could not be resolved today, Xiao Cheng fell silent.

This world is like this, the more you shrink back, the more arrogant others are, this is one of the experiences that Xiao Cheng has summed up after spending several years in society.

"Okay, okay, I admit it." After thinking for a few seconds, Xiao Cheng looked unlucky, and stretched his hands into his arms while talking.

The two men were overjoyed when they saw Xiao admitting that he was reluctant to pay, and their four eyes stared at Xiao Cheng's right hand that was stretched into his arms.

"Hey!"

Xiao Cheng, who had lowered his head to pay for the money, suddenly got a short body, took a step forward, twisted his waist, and swung his right hand outwards in a sweeping sweep.

A fan-shaped black light flashed across, and the two people in front of Xiao Cheng were forced to take a step back at the same time.

The chunky man standing in the front had a large opening in his military coat, exposing the slightly blackened cotton inside.

If the two hadn't been staring at Xiao Cheng's right hand, they would probably have seen blood.

"M's, it looks like I'm a bully, right?"

Holding a three-edged bayonet in his hand, Xiao Cheng pointed at the two people opposite and said coldly: "I have the money, who will take it?"

Encountering such stubbornness as Xiao Cheng, the two big men visibly panicked.

"Brother, there's no need for that." The chunky man looked down at his torn military coat, with a bitter expression on his face:
"The factory is in ruins, and the owed wages and resettlement fees will not be paid. Looking at the end of the year, there is nothing we can do about the family, young and old."

"If you really do it, you won't be able to do it two-on-one." The tall and thin man also chimed in: "Well, you can give us some, let us cross the river, and you will definitely pay it back when you recover."

The words were full of pleading.

A hint of helplessness flashed in Xiao Cheng's heart. This is how it is now. The country has changed its economic route. Before that, many large factories either laid off employees or went bankrupt, and many families lost their source of income overnight.

But I pity you, who pity me so much?Who has it easy in this world?

Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng's heart hardened.

"Stop talking to me!" Xiao Cheng said indifferently: "I've only heard of a dog that can be bred, but I've never seen a wolf that can be fed!"

"Brother..." The tall and thin man didn't give up.

"roll!"

Xiao Cheng tilted his neck and waved the three-edged bayonet in his hand, scaring the two people in front of him back again and again.

The tall and thin man staggered and almost fell.

Xiao Cheng saw the opening, and suddenly rushed out from the gap between the two, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

……

This laneway is located in the old city, extending in all directions, with many forks.

Xiao Cheng ran around for a while, seeing that the two men did not come after him, he slowed down and leaned against the wall to catch his breath.

"This is a fucking world."

Xiao Cheng collected himself, spat, inserted the bayonet back into the specially sewn sleeve in his arms, and walked quickly towards home.

……

Twenty minutes later, Xiao Cheng walked into a five-story old building.

It was already meal time, the corridor was filled with the aroma of food, and bursts of laughter came from the doors of several houses.

Home is like a sheltered haven that seems to heal all kinds of ailments.

A not-so-thick iron gate separates the two worlds.

"Boom."

With a dull closing sound, Xiao Cheng silently returned to his residence on the third floor.

This is an ordinary two-bedroom apartment, about [-] square meters. It was a house assigned by the unit when Xiao Cheng's parents were still alive. The interior of the house is simple and deserted.

Xiao Cheng took off his coat in the dark, took out the 1000 yuan he had withdrawn today, and carefully locked it in a drawer.

After everything was tidied up, Xiao Cheng turned on all the lights in the room, took a handful of dried noodles, and started eating carelessly.

Since the death of his parents, Xiao Cheng used the small pension to deal with the funeral affairs, and plunged into the big dye vat of society.

Over the past few years, Xiao Cheng has set up stalls on the side of the road, grilled skewers at night markets, dumped vegetables, wholesaled fruits, resold second-hand BP machines, and escorted large trucks for long distances...

After struggling all the way, he survived on his own.

After a simple dinner, Xiao Cheng returned to his room.

Xiao Cheng's room is not big, a wooden single bed is placed across the wall directly opposite the door, occupying almost half of the space.

Next to the window on the left hand side is a wooden desk covered with a transparent glass panel with a calendar and a few photos on it. A wooden photo frame and a powerful mechanical alarm clock are placed on the desktop. Nothing else.

On the left side of the desk is a pair of six-layer bookshelves of the same wood, which are full of various books. Judging from the damage of the books, it is obvious that they have been frequently read.

"I'm going to report to the public security station tomorrow."

Xiao Cheng threw himself on the bed, staring at the group photo of his parents wearing security uniforms on the desk, lost in thought.

"The death of my father and mother should not be that simple."

"If you want to get access to the files of this level of cases, you still have to stand firm first."

"..."

"Ding, the host's strong obsession has been detected, the strongest sheriff's auxiliary system, report!"

An impassioned male voice sounded in Xiao Cheng's mind, which stunned Xiao Cheng.

"Unlock the underlying basic attribute enhancement."

"Middle-level profession-specific skill enhancements will be unlocked after the basic attributes are filled."

"The top-level hidden attribute enhancement will be unlocked after the mid-level skill enhancement reaches the full level."

"Give 1 reinforcement point to newcomers."

The system voice was high-spirited and resolute, Xiao Cheng also came back to his senses, sat up from the bed at once, and carefully examined the light curtain that popped up in his head.

I saw a pyramid-shaped skill tree displayed on the left side of the light curtain. The bottom layer displayed five columns of attributes: perception, speed, strength, physical strength, and agility, and 0/5 was displayed behind each column.

The reinforcement points are displayed at the bottom: 1.

The middle and top layers of the skill tree are all gray, and the specific content cannot be seen.

On the right is a lottery turntable, the content of which is also hidden in the darkness.

"How to get strengthening points?" Xiao Cheng asked the question he was most concerned about.

"The system randomly releases tasks, and if you succeed, you will get reinforcement points equivalent to the difficulty of the task."

"What happens if you fail?"

"Please ask the host to explore the specific functions."

"What's with the lottery wheel?"

"Please ask the host to explore the specific functions."

"Can the system sound be changed?" Xiao Cheng asked with a frown.

"No."

"Then can you stop talking like a chicken blood?"

"No."

"Damn, before you became a system, did you work in customer service somewhere, and you kept saying these two sentences back and forth?"

The corner of Xiao Cheng's mouth slowly raised: "This time, I will become the strongest security officer!"
