Once, I wanted to be a good person

Chapter 304 61. Another case has been solved!? (12 votes for the monthly ticket!)

Even without knowing what was happening, Fang Ze guessed nothing good could come from the visitor's hostile demeanor.

His mind raced.

'Superiors coming to inspect the case?'

'Neither earlier nor later, but during my sudden use of the Special Operations Order? Clearly, there's more to this than meets the eye.'

'Seems like trouble is on the way.'

With only a brief mental review, Fang Ze roughly deduced the purpose of the senior officer's visit.

Thinking this, he smiled at the two Executive Commissioners and said, "Alright. Just give me a moment. I'll follow you as soon as I finish this document."

As he spoke, he bowed his head, picked up a pen, and wrote a few lines on the document.

When he was finished, he closed the document, set down the pen, and then left the office.

Seeing that Fang Ze did not exhibit any other anomalies, the two Executive Commissioners simply nodded and then took him to the Security Bureau.

However, what they didn't see was,

after they left, within the now-closed office, a shadow slowly emerged from under the desk and then transformed into a beautiful woman.

The woman, seeing no one around, carefully flipped open the document and closely examined those few lines of text. Then she turned back into a shadow and slipped out through the crack under the office door....

Meanwhile, at the Emerald City Security Bureau, in the Secretariat Office.

Xun Yi was hosting a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man had a square face, a robust build, and his countenance was marked with severity and authority, clearly a person who is strict with oneself.

"It must be... to review the Special Case Team's progress and the Special Operation Permit's process, right?"

"Probably so."

"I just leaned by the window for a long time watching. The visitor this time is the Director of the State Case Department, known for his stern impartiality, Yun Su."

"What? Yun Su? Then this matter is getting interesting. It seems like even the Bureau Director is displeased with Fang Ze, doesn't it?"

Within the Security Bureau, the existence of factions was common knowledge.

The Noble Faction and the Commoner Faction were the two largest, but there was also a Neutral Faction that served as a mediator.

Individuals in this Neutral Faction were typically civilian officers who preferred a more Zen attitude, avoiding the struggle, and members from Awakener families who did not lean toward the nobles.

These people generally did not meddle in the disputes, concentrating instead on their own duties.

They only intervened when one side was dissatisfied with their own people but did not trust the other faction's inspectors.

After all, it was only the Neutral Faction that neither side leaned on, whose inspection results would be accepted by both.

So, this time with the inspectors neither from the Noble nor the Commoner Faction, everyone guessed the Bureau Director must also be unhappy about Fang Ze's misuse of the Special Operation Permit and his unauthorized takedown of a Security Bureau director.

With that analysis, and recalling the usual outcomes when the Neutral Faction stepped in, most people were rather pessimistic about Fang Ze's fate.

However, besides them, a small group still supported Fang Ze, arguing, "I observed him just a moment ago, and Director Fang Ze clearly seemed very confident, his smile never wavered."

The others immediately shook their heads, countering, "Could it be possible... that he simply doesn't understand the seriousness of this situation?"

"After all, he hasn't been in the Security Bureau long and probably hasn't heard about the fate of those inspected by the Neutral Faction, has he?"

Those who supported Fang Ze: ...

Seeing them fall silent, the others continued shaking their heads slightly, then said, "Unless Director Fang Ze's case is proceeding extremely smoothly, with ample evidence and logic, and his reasons for taking down Director Qin are perfectly justified."
