However, the police commissioner had a serious expression on his face as he said," Merlin, when something big happens that cannot be solved, someone always has to take the blame for it. You have been working in the New York Police Department for so many years, and it is impossible that you do not understand this. I don’t want you to take the blame for this either, but if you continue to remain stubborn, I can only apologize to you in advance, then!"
Merlin gritted his teeth and looked at the other party. Even though he was filled with hatred and resentment in his heart, he knew that the police commissioner was telling the truth.
In truth, the New York Police Department was actually still very protective of their own people most of the time, and the higher management would definitely find a way to solve problems for the sake of the department's overall image.
However, the New York Police Department hadn't always been able to handle everything.
Over the years, the New York Police Department's violent law enforcement against ethnic minorities had caused huge public anger. The New York Police Department had tried to cover up for their own people at first, but in the end, they had also had to make sacrifices because of the great public anger.
The impact of the series of cases that Homer was involved in was also extremely bad, but this incident had happened too suddenly, and the police department had
not been able to find a way to deal with it. However, it could be guessed from the current situation that it was very likely that it would be very difficult to investigate this incident. So, it would not be long before the New York Police Department would have to sacrifice someone to take the blame for this.
It would indeed be a wise choice for Merlin to retreat now.
Moreover, Merlin also knew that he had no other choice currently.
It was either active or passive retirement, and there was no other choice aside from retirement.
So, after weighing the pros and cons, he spoke dejectedly and said, "Okay, I accept it."
