From its shadow erged a lovely little head—it was i.
She glanced at Fang Ze coyly before diving into his shadow while Bai Zhi and Bai Ling at the front weren't paying attention...
As the vehicle started, Bai Zhi, while driving, said to Fang Ze without turning her head, "Keep your pets in order."
"Advanced cities are not the sa as lower-level cities."
"If you stir up trouble, I won't be able to help you escape again."
Fang Ze smiled.
He reached out to pat One Two Three's rough head and said, "Officer Bai Zhi, when have I ever caused trouble? I am clearly here to bring you rit."
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi snorted coldly and was just about to mock Fang Ze.
Just then, Bai Ling, who was rifling through papers related to Fang Ze in the front seat, suddenly turned around curiously and asked, "Fang Ze, is Director Pang really a mole for the Rejuvenation Society?"
"Not only did he secretly kill many investigators, but he even kept passing secrets to the Rejuvenation Society!"
Fang Ze smiled but said nothing.
Bai Ling continued to sift through the docunts, speaking as she did, "So, although he blew up his own Dry Bones clone..."
"But, if we capture those investigators he controlled with his abilities, to avoid implicating his main body, he will likely blow up, sacrificing those bodies."
"But it's okay, as long as we check the real death dates of those bodies, we will still discover sothing fishy."

"After that, searching his house, his office, we will find lots of records of him collecting and transmitting secrets."
"This way, at least his identity as a spy is confird. You had a legitimate reason to kill him."
"Add to that your testimony: he tried to recruit you into the Rejuvenation Society, but you refused, so he made a lethal move. You were forced to retaliate."
"Everything then becos reasonable."
Hearing her say this, Fang Ze smiled again, again without saying anything.
And Bai Zhi, driving the car, also said nothing.
If Bai Ling didn't notice anything unusual before, so she kept naively asking, now, even if she was slow, she realized sothing was off.
However, with her limited understanding, she couldn't figure out exactly what was wrong.
So she just closed her mouth and stopped talking...
anwhile, Fang Ze, while petting Green Wood Fox One Two Three, looked out the rapidly passing scenery through the car window and sighed softly to himself.
If only matters were this simple.
He wondered whether the path he had chosen was right or wrong.
However...in this world full of great crises, to rapidly increase his strength, to swiftly Establish rit, he had to take so unusual risks...
....
As Fang Ze was contemplating this, soon, the trio arrived at Bai Zhi's ho, or rather, her residence in Erald City.
A single-family villa with a garden.
Only... the garden, though beautiful, seed as if no one had tended to it, overgrown with weeds.
Fang Ze curiously glanced around, just about to tease Bai Zhi about her homaking skills, when Bai Zhi dragged him into the villa.
Bai Ling wanted to follow inside but was shut out by Bai Zhi with a loud "Bang!" at the door!
Seeing this, she puffed her cheeks, looking angrily at the villa's door, "Leaving behind again! Really! How excessive!"
As Bai Zhi pulled Fang Ze by the hand into the villa's living room and pushed him onto the sofa,
she then went to the water dispenser, took a glass of water, and while drinking voraciously and struggling to suppress her anger, said, "Speak up. What exactly is going on!"
Seeing Bai Zhi's anxious deanor, Fang Ze couldn't help but smile.
He thought his officer was really quite interesting and incredibly loyal.
He had gotten into such a big ss, yet she had just asked if he had a sound reason, and after getting his affirmative reply, she dragged him, running through countless people's encirclent and headed straight to Erald City overnight.
If it wasn't for being stopped by a woman nad Xun Yi and several teams of the Security Bureau's commissioners at the city entrance, she might have hidden him right away and then dealt with the matter slowly.
So, taking such a risk for her and daring to seek a tiger's skin, it was worth it.
Thinking this, seeing no outsiders now and not trying to escape, Fang Ze finally began to open his heart.
He recounted the day's events in detail.
Bai Zhi listened patiently.
Initially, she was a bit angry, but when she heard about Director Pang's arrangents within the Special Case Team, she couldn't help but be surprised.
And when she heard that Director Pang had secretly killed Shan Hui and the 24th investigator, taking control of his body and once again successfully gaining her trust, she instantly broke into a cold sweat.
And on hearing how Director Pang had helped Fang Ze a lot and even offered him an olive branch, promising to support him more in the future, Bai Zhi took a deep breath.
Then she looked at Fang Ze and said,"You surely didn't agree, did you?"
Fang Ze smiled and nodded, "Of course not."
"How could I be so casual?"
"When you laid out such a big pie, I didn't accept it. How could I accept his much smaller pie?"
Hearing this, Bai Zhi sighed in relief.
Then she heard Fang Ze say, "So, I told him I might reconsider joining the Rejuvenation Society."
"But it can't just be promises; there must be more money."
Bai Zhi: ???
Fang Ze smiled and nodded, "Of course."
"How could I be so casual?"
"When you laid out such a big pie, I didn't accept it. How could I accept his much smaller pie?"
Hearing this, Bai Zhi sighed in relief.
Then she heard Fang Ze say, "So, I told him I might reconsider joining the Rejuvenation Society."
"But it can't just be promises; there must be more money."
Bai Zhi: ??
