Once, I wanted to be a good person

…

At the same time, in the secret base of the Security Bureau within the villa…

Bai Ling, the young girl with the pumpkin hammer, was sitting on the table. She swung her fair and smooth legs as she chatted with Bai Zhi.

"Sister Bai, why did you force Commissioner Pang to deal with that agent?"

"That agent obviously wasn't a spy, was he? He was a little rough around the edges, but he didn't mean to attract Fang Ze's attention."

"Thus, there's no need to be so harsh, is there?"

Upon hearing Bai Ling's words, the beautiful young woman who was as charming as a flower, Bai Zhi, smiled.

She relaxed her arms and wrapped them around Bai Ling. Then, she rested her chin on Bai Ling's head. As she stroked Bai Ling, she said indulgently, "Little Bai Ling, you must remember."

"We're working on a case. It's a team effort."

"Thus, stupid teammates are a lot scarier than good opponents."

"With such a stupid teammate like that around, if he can screw you up once, he can screw you up a second time."

"In that case, kicking him off the team before it's too late and making up for the mistakes he made in time to avoid any further problems is the right thing to do."

"Besides… When you do something, you have to know your priorities."

"In this case, Han Kaiwei is an insignificant character."

"It's the case that matters."

"Furthermore… More importantly, it's Fang Ze."

Bai Zhi's words made Bai Ling's mouth form an 'O' in shock.

She had to ask, "Is Fang Ze more important than this case? Why?"

Bai Zhi smiled and patted her little head. "Silly Bai Ling, it's because we're not the Investigation Department. We're the Security Bureau."

"Our goal is to keep the country safe, not solve crimes."

"Furthermore… with Fang Ze's help, isn't this case basically settled?"

"What we don't know is the true identity, whereabouts, and purpose of these suspects."

At this point, her beautiful eyes could not help but become a little solemn. "How many years has it been since such an organization appeared?"

"They're operating under our noses, but we can't even find any information about them."

"Furthermore, two of them appeared at once."

"Apart from Fang Ze, everyone else in these two organizations is actually transparent."

"Just thinking about it makes me shudder…"

"That's why the Chief sent me to personally oversee the investigation."

"Now, we only have Fang Ze as a bargaining chip."

"We have to use his remaining memories to find clues about these two organizations, or stimulate him to regain his memories and obtain direct information…"

"Alternatively, we can lure these two organizations to attack him and expose our flaws…"

"These days, I've spent so much effort to get the Investigation Department to put on an act for this purpose…"

"As long as I can achieve this goal, everything else can be sacrificed…"

"So… do you think Fang Ze is important?"

At the beautiful woman's words, Bai Ling nodded as if she understood.

A moment later, she jumped down from the table. Then, she bent her arms in a cute supportive gesture. "Sister Bai, I don't understand what you're saying. But! Anyway, just tell me what you need me to do!"

Seeing how cute Bai Ling was, Bai Zhi immediately smiled until her eyes curved into crescents.

She hugged the girl and then said, "Bai Ling is so considerate."

"However, Sister really needs your help."

At this, she leaned close to Bai Ling's soft little ear and whispered, "Remember Fang Ze's neighbor?"

"The task force is on holiday tomorrow… You…"

Her voice became softer and softer, and was almost inaudible. Only Bai Ling's lively eyes kept blinking…

…

After returning to his temporary residence from the canteen, Fang Ze was still unable to calm down.

The task force would no longer be confined to this case.

They would have a holiday.

They could leave and enter the task force at will.

Was there such a good thing in this world?

Fang Ze wasn't convinced.

Especially after what he had done today, Fang Ze found it even more unbelievable.

…What the hell was the task force doing?

What the hell was the Security Bureau doing now?

Fang Ze felt as if a huge conspiracy was looming over him.

It was only because there was so little information that he couldn't see what was happening.

After thinking for a long time and really unable to think of anything, Fang Ze decided not to think about it anymore.

He felt that there was no point in dwelling on it.

To resolve this matter, the most important thing was strength!

Once he had a powerful Awakened ability or a precious artifact, the immediate crisis would be resolved.

No matter how many tricks they had, he would break them all!

At the thought of this, Fang Ze packed up and prepared to go to bed to obtain his awakening ability.

However, at that moment, the door to the temporary residence was suddenly pushed open. Wang Hao walked in with a book in his arms and a smile on his face.

Fang Ze had never seen his roommate so happy.

How could such a dead face have such a rich expression?

With that thought, Fang Ze couldn't help but ask curiously, "Are you that happy about having a holiday?"

Wang Hao was obviously taken aback by Fang Ze's words.

He felt compelled to ask, "What holiday?"

It was Fang Ze's turn to be puzzled. "Didn't you know that the task force lifted the lockdown, and we have a holiday tomorrow?"

Wang Hao shook his head blankly.

"He's actually not happy about the holiday?" Fang Ze was even more puzzled.

He asked, "Then why were you so happy just now?"

Wang Hao was obviously not a good liar. He stammered, not knowing what to say.

Fang Ze studied Wang Hao for a moment. Then, his gaze fell on the book in Wang Hao's hand. He smiled knowingly. "It's the district's 'intelligence magazine' again, isn't it?"

Upon hearing Fang Ze's words, Wang Hao nodded quickly. "Yes, yes, yes!"

Fang Ze smiled.

"It doesn't look like it's because of the Magazine…"

He felt that his roommate was really a little silly and cute.

With his roommate's thin skin, if he was really happy because of the "intelligence magazine", he would definitely hide it and not dare to say it.

Now that he'd admitted it so readily, he was probably trying to cover up something more important, something Fang Ze couldn't know about.

"For Wang Hao to be happy enough to lose control of his emotions…"

"Furthermore, he can't let me know about it…"

Then, he thought about his roommate's frugal hobbies and bleak social circle…

Fang Ze suddenly froze.

Could it be that… His roommate had obtained some key information about the case and wanted to tell "him" about it? Was that why he was so happy?

Then, he thought about how he had obtained a precious artifact the first time he summoned his roommate last night.

Fang Ze couldn't help but think, "Why don't I… summon my roommate again tonight?"

After all, compared to others, the possibility of obtaining a high-value "reward" from his roommate was much higher…

However, wouldn't it be a little unethical to only catch one sheep to fleece?

…

The stars moved west. One by one, the lights of the temporary residence went out. Gradually, the whole place was swallowed by darkness.

In the temporary residence, Fang Ze also fell asleep.

In the dream, he seemed to be very irritable and was shouting at a girl.

The girl was dressed in gray. Her face was dirty and her hair was a mess. She looked sloppy.

However, if one looked closely, they would discover that under the dust, she had a plain and beautiful face. She had the innocence of a first love and a temperament that made people pity her.

"Fang Ze" seemed to be having an argument with her, so he kept shouting at her.

However, the girl didn't say anything. She just looked down and didn't say anything. She was still holding two yellow dough balls tightly in her hands.

A moment later, "he" pushed her to the ground and kicked her hard.

The girl protected the two dough balls with her hands and curled up into a ball on the ground, trembling. She didn't dare to resist…

"Ah!" Fang Ze shouted, waking up from his dream in a sweat. Then, he found himself in the Late-Night Investigation Room again.
