No one had ever forced their way in before.
"What are you doing here? Do you know where you are?"
"Get lost... Military facility, no entry for outsiders..."
Tang Fei stood at the forefront of the group, his gaze icy, his face as impassive as a stone sculpture, exuding an air of pride.
Clad in a brand-new black Inspection Uniform that fit him perfectly, accentuating his tall and slender figure. Draped over him was the Magic Cloak given by his sworn brother, Evil God, adding an effortlessly noble and intense aura.
This was the confidence that allowed him to stand at the very front...
At his waist hung the Dragon Horn Sword meticulously crafted by the old man, its threads of icy breath seeping into his body upon contact, subsequently guiding the circulation of the Yin Yang Qi within him.
Round after round, unceasing and unending, Tang Fei felt the Yin Yang Qi inside him growing stronger and more profound.
Tang Fei was unclear about the situation, but he enjoyed the sensation.
It was as though he was Training every moment...
Shen Yan held up the search warrant in front of the guards, his voice cold and stern, "Open your eyes wide and look, this is a search warrant from the Monitoring Bureau..."
"The Monitoring Bureau is conducting an investigation, no one is to interfere. Otherwise, it’s obstruction of justice, with penalties to be increased accordingly."
Security Captain Zhao Jingping saw the black Inspection Uniforms and recognized that these were Bureau agents on a case. He knew the Monitoring Bureau wielded immense power, but he couldn’t just let them barge in; if they did, he could no longer serve as the security captain.
After carefully verifying the contents of the search warrant, Zhao Jingping looked at Shen Yan and asked, "Why are you searching our Design Institute? Our institute is a confidential unit of the Empire, housing many core products and technologies that cannot be accessed at will..."
"You think I need your permission to do my job? Does the Monitoring Bureau have to get your approval to conduct an investigation?" Shen Yan’s position as deputy captain had been confirmed, and he was very diligent in his duties. "Open the door and let us in."
"That’s not possible, we need to report to the higher-ups..."
"Report to whom? Our investigation target is your institute’s director, Lu Yunhang. Do you plan to ask our investigation target whether we can enter to investigate him?"
"It’s our duty..." Zhao Jingping dared not truly block the Bureau’s agents but couldn’t let them just storm in, so he quickly reported it to the vice director in charge of security.
Soon after, the vice director of the Mechanical Design Institute, Chen Youli, stepped out, shouting, "What’s going on here? What’s all this noise about? This is the Mechanical Design Institute... What do you think this place is? Making such a commotion, is this appropriate?"
"The Monitoring Bureau is on a case, bystanders step aside." Shen Yan shouted.
Chen Youli looked around and his eyes fell on Tang Fei at the front. He asked in a deep voice, "Are you leading them?"
"This is Tang Fei, the captain of Monitoring Division Five," Shen Yan introduced. "He is fully responsible for this case."
"Whose orders are you following to inspect the Mechanical Design Institute? Do you know where you are? Young man, you’re too young to be manipulated as a pawn... or perhaps, you’re unaware of your impending doom."
"I am only influenced by the law’s justice, the Monitoring Bureau’s authority, and our meritorious ruler above us..." Tang Fei looked at Chen Youli with a stern face and said, "The director of the Mechanical Design Institute, Lu Yunhang, is suspected of corruption, abusing power for personal gain... Please have him come out and cooperate with our investigation."
"What if I refuse?" Chen Youli said angrily.
These little inspectors were willing to do anything to earn merit. Did he understand just how deep the waters were here?
The Mechanical Design Institute was Lu Family’s territory. By forcing their way in and attempting to take away the director, Lu Yunhang, they were provoking the authority of the Lu Family, a blatant slap in the face.
As a direct descendant of the Lu Family, Chen Youli would never allow Tang Fei to act recklessly.
Tang Fei drew his Dragon Horn Sword and shouted, "Then don’t blame us if our blades are blind."
The dozen or so Inspectors behind him simultaneously drew their swords.
