"Gu Qing's people were looking at , they wanted to ask questions, but they didn't dare!"
"I could only pretend to be all-knowing, as if I understood everything!"
"But actually, I was freaking out inside!"
Bai Zhi was clearly very upset,
"I feel like I'm just the scapegoat!"
"After all I've done for him!"
"And this is how he treats ?!"
Bai Ling looked up at Bai Zhi, then soothingly patted her, "Bai, just calm down."
"Fang Ze must have his reasons for doing this."
Bai Zhi: ??
Bai Ling didn't realize sothing was off with Bai Zhi and continued, "You know, neither of us are that brilliant."
"But he is brilliant. So shouldn't we just trust him for now?"
Bai Zhi: ...
While they were chatting like this, inside the Security Bureau, many commissioners were also huddled in small groups, whispering among themselves,
"Have you heard? Officer Bai Zhi brought in so talent from a lower-tier city. And before the guy even started, she turned around and had the Director of the Investigation Bureau there killed."
"I heard about it, too. I heard that the director was in bad shape. The scene was bloody, flesh everywhere."
"I heard that city even activated second-level combat readiness, thinking there was an assassination attempt on their core layer."
"What a troubleso character."
"Exactly."
While the Security Bureau was buzzing with rumors,
suddenly a commissioner, clutching a stack of docunts, rushed in from outside and crossed the hall straight towards Bai Zhi, who stood at the monitoring room's entrance.
Everyone's gaze involuntarily followed him.
Stay tuned to empire
Then they saw him excitedly hand the docunts to Bai Zhi, saying, "Your Honor! Here are the results from there! Please, have a look!"
Seeing his excitent, Bai Zhi took the docunts and seriously started reviewing them.
Suddenly, a smile appeared on her face, and she pushed open the monitoring room door, holding the docunts.
She strode towards the bespectacled woman, slamd the docunts in front of her, and said, "Xun Yi. Release him!"
The woman nad Xun Yi did not respond but adjusted her glasses and speed-read the docunt.
Seeing this, the others in the monitoring room dared not breathe, they sneaked a glance at Bai Zhi and then kept their eyes on the bespectacled woman.
After a mont, the bespectacled woman put down the docunts and nodded to the others.
Seeing this, they seed to breathe a sigh of relief, quickly picked up the intercom, and spoke to the three persons being interrogated in the room, "Alright, no need to interrogate further. Release them."
The bespectacled woman stood up, then looked expressionlessly at Bai Zhi, her gaze neither servile nor overbearing, "Your Honor. Although it's clear now. Director Pang indeed was a spy."
"But killing such a mid-to-high-ranking official on your own is still a very reprehensible act."
"In a few days, Your Honor, you might have to personally report to the Director and the Governing Hall about the whole situation."
"And I, will also report the matter in detail to Gu Qing."
Bai Zhi responded with a cool "Hmm."
Seeing that, the bespectacled woman didn't say anything more.
She expressionlessly gathered the docunts, and then led the interrogating and recording personnel out of the monitoring room.
Before leaving, these personnel tensely saluted Bai Zhi, then followed her out.
After everyone had left,
Bai Zhi also turned and left the room.
She entered the interrogation room with Bai Ling, pushing the door open.
In the interrogation room, Fang Ze, who had just had his legal prohibition handcuffs removed, was massaging his wrists while sorting his confiscated magical instrunts and belongings back into his pockets.
Upon seeing the two enter, he smiled and waved, "Officer Bai Zhi, Chief Bai Ling, what a coincidence. Didn't expect to see you here!"
"The people at the Security Bureau are indeed very enthusiastic."
"First ti at the bureau, and they arranged a handcuff play for ."
Hearing his unabashed words, Bai Zhi's forehead vein throbbed, and she angrily said, "Hurry and pack up. Pack up and follow !"
"I really don't want to stay here any longer!"
Fang Ze smiled and sped up his packing.
Soon, he had finished packing, and then, under the curious gaze of many Security Bureau commissioners, sauntered out of the building with Bai Zhi and Bai Ling.
Outside, the sunlight was a bit dazzling. Fang Ze squinted and blocked the light with his hand, then looked around at the surroundings.
This was Fang Ze's first ti leaving Qingshan City, and his first visit to the upscale Erald City.
Well, how to put it.
It was a bit different than what he had imagined.
If Qingshan City was a remote mountain village or a small county town lagging by twenty or thirty years,
then Erald City was a modern city full of birdsong and fragrant flowers, where greenery blanketed everything.
Though the technological developnt level was still a bit behind compared to Fang Ze's previous life, they already had sedans, motorcycles, bicycles, as well as mobile phones, televisions, and computers.
And the pedestrians on the street were all brimming with energy, their faces beaming with happy smiles. Clearly, they were living well.
Looking at everything around him, Fang Ze silently thought to himself, "Erald City, here I am..."
Sitting in the back seat of Bai Zhi's car, there was a small Green Wood Fox sprawled out.
Upon seeing Fang Ze, it weakly lifted its paw as a greeting.
