Chapter Summary
They had already taken people there, and everyone had been silenced without leaving a trace. Miss Julie had spent the entire night pondering everything, trying to figure out where the problem lay, but unfortunately, there were too many problematic links within the CCP, so she couldn't find the issue at the moment. If you can't even handle such a small matter, then I really don't know what to say to you.
On the morning of the second day, Miss Julie returned to Liu Ning's place. After a night of investigation, the two captured men had been tortured beyond recognition. It was later discovered that they didn't know much; they had only mentioned transferring people to a certain location. They had already taken people there, and everyone had been silenced without leaving a trace. This was understandable; if someone wanted to do something like this, why would they leave any trace? So, it was unlikely they would find any intelligence here. Now, there were no leads. Miss Julie and her group were responsible, so they came to Liu Ning to see if he had any ideas. If he did, perhaps he could point them in the right direction. Miss Julie had spent the entire night pondering everything, trying to figure out where the problem lay, but unfortunately, there were too many problematic links within the CCP, so she couldn't find the issue at the moment.
"You guys are really something. You always brag to me about how powerful you are, saying you're incredibly strong throughout the region. And look at the result! You haven't found anything. I really don't know what to say to you. In this state, none of you can get anything done. I thought you were very capable at this central base, but now look what's happened—not a single clue. You should investigate from another angle. Dr. Itoh has been taken away, but they definitely don't need him. What they need is to rebuild a laboratory. You can start from that point, see what they need for that, and have a plan for purchasing raw materials. These are places where you can find clues, instead of just staying here with me. If you haven't even done these things, what advice do you think I can give you? Do you think I'd be stupid enough to take on this responsibility?"
Liu Ning said, speechless, that he had initially acted impulsively in this matter. While his actions were correct and he had pointed out the direction of the investigation, the current situation was not so simple. Although they had explained things thoroughly, the question was whether these things were feasible. Of course not. No matter what they wanted to do, they couldn't explain it here. Because of this, when they wanted to do these things, they had to resolve the immediate conflict. The biggest conflict was the traitor within their ranks. If they couldn't even uncover this, no matter what actions they took or how capable the people they found were, they wouldn't be able to solve the problem. Liu Ning understood this very well, and it was precisely because of this that they all had to see it clearly. If they didn't see it clearly at all, they would have to take it slow. Some things weren't so simple, and right now, they were all clueless.
"Thank you, Commander Liu, for giving us some pointers. I'll arrange it right away. Although I had some ideas before, I hadn't thought them through clearly. Now I've thought it through, so you don't need to worry about it. I'll get to it right away and do it properly. Once everything is arranged, the final result will be excellent. In this situation, you don't need to worry about anything. The current situation shows that, regardless of what you're thinking, we will treat you as our superior. I'll arrange for my men to investigate immediately. No matter what high-end equipment they want to buy, they won't be able to stop us. I understand that very well. If there's anything else, I hope you can give us some guidance. Of course, we will absolutely not reveal your involvement in any wrongdoing; we will take full responsibility for it ourselves."
Miss Julie also sensed a good opportunity. She'd had a fleeting thought earlier, but hadn't quite grasped the details, which was perfectly normal. After all, their work was utterly incompetent; everyone was mocking the Human Investigation Bureau. Liu Ning had already released her; there was no way she'd return to this mess. "Catch her if you can, otherwise it's none of my business," she thought. "Dr. Itoh is still in the city. If you have the ability, you can find some clues, but you've destroyed all the leads yourself. Even if Liu Ning is worried about humanity, he can't take the blame. There's no benefit in it. Besides, rumors are circulating within the Human Investigation Bureau that if Liu Ning lets her in again, she might end up in the mess. Is there such a good thing as a free lunch?"
In fact, Liu Ning had many complaints during the capture operation. For example, the aircraft you prepared were not top-level at all. If you had prepared more and used only the highest-level ones, you could have immediately taken to the air and investigated the surrounding area when those dark figures fled. Furthermore, regarding the camera footage, some people were unwilling to give it to you, so you simply refused. Don't forget that you are all from the Human Investigation Bureau. Can't you even handle such a small matter? If you can't even handle such a small matter, then I really don't know what to say to you. Liu Ning knew that they had various drawbacks, but he also knew that he was an outsider and couldn't say too much about this matter. If he said too much, these people probably wouldn't accept it, and might even retaliate. Therefore, Liu Ning wouldn't interfere so much. It's best to let you people take responsibility yourselves. It has nothing to do with me. It's up to you how you do it.
