What's this all about?
I only said he could work in his office, but why do I feel like he's about to move the entire Security Bureau up to the sky...
The adjutant always had a feeling that he would be killed by the Inspector upon his return...
And so, after returning to the detention room, the adjutant wiped the sweat from his forehead, took his leave, and said he was going to apply for these matters with the Inspector.
Fang Ze watched his retreating figure and cheerfully waved his hand.
Actually, he knew his demands were a bit excessive.
But anyway... with the adjutant acting as a lubricant, things would not collapse completely. So it was best to make a bunch of high demands first, raise the Inspector's psychological expectation, and then, perhaps, he'd get an even better outcome than he anticipated.
Thinking this, Fang Ze exercised as usual while patiently waiting.
Half an hour later, the adjutant returned to the detention room.
Upon seeing Fang Ze, his first words were, "If... the Personnel Department and the Flower Morning Festival case team. You can only choose one to work from the Sky Mother Ship, which will you choose?"
Fang Ze hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Can I do it on a rotating basis?"
Fang Ze snickered at the adjutant.
After a moment, the adjutant also began to laugh.
He said, "Okay, I'll stop teasing you."
"Congratulations. The Inspector has approved your application."
Fang Ze hesitated for a bit, then asked, "All of it?"
The adjutant nodded, "All of it."
Truth be told, Fang Ze was already so surprised that he was at a loss for words.
His excessive demands, and the Inspector had agreed to them all?
Isn't this too surreal?
Could he be a long-lost relative of mine...
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
At the same time Fang Ze was having these thoughts.
In the Security Bureau of Emerald City, in the Personnel Department.
A regular meeting was in progress.
Those attending were several directors from the Personnel Department and all of the first-level Commissioners.
From the attendees, it was apparent that this was an important meeting for the Personnel Department.
As the meeting began, Gu Qing's confidant and Fang Ze's boss, Director Zhuang Bo of the Personnel Department, coughed to set the tone for the meeting.
"Everyone knows Director Fang Ze's capabilities. That's absolutely not a problem."
"But now... his situation is special. Recently, due to the 'Death of the Yang Transformation Advanced Master' incident, he has been detained by the Federal Defense Team. We don't know the specifics, and how long it will drag on is also unclear."
"And our Personnel Department is always busy with official work. The training center he is in charge of is a very important task."
"So, I think our Personnel Department should select another acting director from the training office to temporarily manage the department."
As soon as he said this, the entire conference room went silent as no one dared to speak up.
Everyone exchanged glances, wanting to gauge others' opinions.
Director Zhuang Bo's intentions were clear to everyone.
He was Gu Qing's confidant and a member of the Commoner Faction. He'd always been at odds with Fang Ze.
Not long ago, Zhuang Bo was one of the few people who praised Gu Qing the most at a meeting, only to suffer a setback.
So for both public and private reasons, he had every intention of targeting Fang Ze.
Publicly, it would help the Commoner Faction undermine the Noble Faction's power.
Privately, it would satisfy his own ego.
Moreover, he had thought it through.
With Fang Ze's uncertain future and likely becoming a criminal, everyone present supported or leaned towards Gu Qing.
So no one would contradict him.
The matter should have been easy to push forward.
Indeed, after he finished speaking, the office atmosphere grew restless, as many were eager to speak up in agreement.
Right at that moment, unexpectedly, the person sitting to his right, Deputy Section Chief Shen Yayun, suddenly coughed and voiced her opposition, "I don't think that's a good idea?"
"Although Director Fang Ze has been invited by the Federal Defense Team for an investigation on the Sky Mother Ship, they haven't accused him of being a suspect."
"If we designate a Commissioner to take his place at this time, what will he think when he returns?"
As she spoke, she paused. "Moreover, the training office is responsible for just two tasks."
"One is the training center, and the second is the Commissioner training newly initiated by Director Fang Ze."
"The training center has its director and instructors. It can operate independently for a short time without the need for any high-ranking officials to intervene."
"As for the Commissioner training work..."
She looked around the office and said, "That project requires Director Fang Ze's family heirloom, the Extraordinary Artifact, to be carried out effectively."
"That... seems irreplaceable, doesn't it?"
Perhaps not expecting someone to jump out and speak for Fang Ze, the atmosphere in the office quieted down again.
Zhuang Bo looked at Shen Yayun in surprise and silently picked up his water glass for a sip.
At the moment, Shen Yayun was in fact not as composed as she appeared.
She knew very well that at this time, the entire Security Bureau was being mobilized by Gu Qing. Standing up for Fang Ze meant going against everyone.
But... she was Fang Ze's person, she understood Fang Ze's methods, and even more so, Fang Ze had something on her.
She was aware that if she didn't stand up for him now, she would face an even worse fate when Fang Ze returned.
So she had no choice but to step forward.
Now, she could only hope that she could hold out until Fang Ze returned, and perhaps then he would treat her a little better for her unwavering loyalty....
