The naplate on the office door read: Gu Qing.
He pushed open the door, walked in, then sat down on the chair, lifted his feet onto the desk, reclined there, closed his eyes, and thought about going back to sleep.
Just then, suddenly, his office door was knocked on loudly.
Without even opening his eyes, the man shouted, "Co in."
The door swung open, and the bespectacled woman who had led the interrogation of Fang Ze this morning walked in expressionlessly.
An entire day's work left no trace of fatigue on her face or any mark on her clothes.
She carried a stack of docunts to the desk, dumped them with a thud, and said coldly, "Coming in right before quitting ti, you've piled up so much work. Is this how you perform as a director?"
Gu Qing, head resting on the chair, his body forming a "√" shape, replied weakly without opening his eyes, "Deputy, deputy..."
"Wouldn't it have been better if you had contacted Bai Zhi about it?"
"Isn't she back?"
Gu Qing would have been fine had he not ntioned Bai Zhi, but at the ntion of her na, the bespectacled woman's expression turned colder as she said, "Talking about Bai Zhi, you don't even know the trouble her new recruit has caused. The issues it brought for Security Bureau…"
Gu Qing quickly waved his hands, "Stop, stop, stop. Enough."
"I am working, working."
With that, he lowered his legs and began to go through the docunts.
Seeing him like this, the bespectacled woman finally stopped speaking.
However, she crossed her arms, scrutinizing Gu Qing's clothing.
After a mont, upon noticing a lipstick mark on Gu Qing's collar, her gaze sharpened slightly before she asked, "Did you go fool around in the Red Light District last night?"
Gu Qing, rapidly reviewing docunts, replied nonchalantly, "Can that even be called fooling around?"
"That's gathering intelligence!"
"I'm telling you, Flower Morning Festival is upon us, and the quality of the girls in the Red Light District is high—ah, I an, the intelligence value is high!"
"If I don't explore their... extents, how can I gather the latest intelligence?"
"Those girls aren't simple characters; they're quite clingy. If I don't satisfy them, they won't spill a thing."
Listening to Gu Qing's words, which seed serious but tinged with sleaze, the woman huffed angrily, and with a kick, a chair next to Gu Qing's office shattered with a "crack!"
Then she glared at Gu Qing and threw down the words, "If you dare co to work after two in the afternoon tomorrow, just wait and see!"
After she finished speaking, she stord out of Gu Qing's office angrily.
Hearing the door close, Gu Qing sighed wistfully and shook his head, "Ah. No respect, no respect at all. I'm still a director, yet she just kicked my chair to pieces."
As he spoke, he opened a drawer, which contained a pile of tiny chair models.
He picked up an intact one, placed it on the floor, and suddenly the chair slowly enlarged back into that fine chair.
Then he picked up a broom, swept up the shattered pieces, and sat back down at his desk.
However, he didn't continue reviewing docunts this ti; instead, he sneakily glanced at the doorway. Seeing that the bespectacled woman wasn't coming in, he rummaged about, and from a pile of books, he pulled out a magazine.
The cover of the book starkly displayed "Passionate Nightlife: July's Red Light District Golden Rooster List (Flower Morning Festival Special Edition)…"
…
Erald City is a city of flowers and trees.
Perhaps because it is backed by mountains and several primitive forests, the scenery here is beautiful and the vegetation lush.
And because there's so much greenery, it isn't hot here at night in sumr.
A gentle breeze blows, imnsely pleasant.
After 8 PM, Fang Ze left Bai Zhi's villa, ready to head to the Red Light District to connect with people from the Rejuvenation Society in the Erald City, to see if he could gather so clues, or perhaps… after the encounter, use what he learned in the Late-Night Investigation Room.
After heading out, he hailed a cab, got in, and gave the address.
Perhaps because the advanced city life here was closer to the life Fang Ze had in his previous life, he felt inexplicably reassured upon arriving in Erald City…
The car travelled for 20 minutes and stopped at an intersection, where Fang Ze paid the fare and got out.
What he stepped into was a bustling area filled with bright lights and greenery everywhere, won dressed revealingly and sexily, and drunken patrons.
And... a few uniford Investigators, grappling with a scruffy-looking, poorly-dressed man.
Fang Ze paused for a mont as he was about to enter but then suddenly his face showed surprise.
He raised his hand and called out, "Mouse? Are you on duty today?"
Hearing Fang Ze's voice, Wang Hao, who was grappling with a man who had forgotten his ID, looked up.
Seeing Fang Ze, his face showed a hint of surprise before he blurted out, "Fang Ze? You're still alive?"
Fang Ze: …
Wang Hao realized his mistake and chuckled awkwardly, then said, "Sorry. I an… are you OK?"
As he spoke, he added, "I heard that you, I heard you... that…"
Seeing Wang Hao's hesitant manner, Fang Ze imdiately understood what he ant.
Fang Ze smiled and said, "h. A minor issue. It's all settled." Stay updated with empire
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Wang Hao couldn't help but be a bit shocked.
