The Commandant is a male law enforcement officer in Mianzhou City, in charge of law and order. He is burly, tall, muscular, and rough-looking, compared to Li Kui from TV dramas. He is sharp-witted and not easily fooled, bluntly telling Wen Lan he doesn't believe her story about being a chef. He tried the lamb soup Wen Lan made and found it delicious, sharing it with his men. He escorted Wen Lan and Zeng Zidai into the city at dawn, noting that it was dangerous for young women out at night. He was patrolling outside the city late at night, suggesting something was going on in the city.
