Once, I wanted to be a good person-Chapter 712 - Council Member 167 meeting!

712: Council Member 167 meeting!

The scourge is here again.

712: Council Member 167 meeting!

The scourge is here again.

The female Commissioner’s gaze revealed a contemplative expression, “Are you sure?”

Without hesitation, Fang Ze nodded, “Certain.

Having him alone is enough.

That way, my suspicions can be cleared even more.”

Hearing Fang Ze say this, the female Commissioner didn’t say anything more; she looked at Fang Ze indifferently, nodded, and said, “As long as it doesn’t delay the important matters, everything else is up to you.”

“Thank you, Director Xie!

Rest assured,” Fang Ze said with full confidence.

After discussing the matter of Black Shadow with the female Commissioner, Fang Ze let Black Shadow return to his own shadow, and then went out to bring Little You, Nan Yi, Little Fatty, and a few others to meet with the female Commissioner.

Meeting such a high-ranked official like the female Commissioner, Nan Yi and the others could hardly conceal their excitement.

However, the female Commissioner returned to her icy demeanor, casually looked them over, nodded coldly, and considered the review passed.

Normally, new employees of Nan Yi and the others’ level wouldn’t need to meet the Commissioner.

However, perhaps to support Fang Ze or to identify if there were any issues with the individuals promoted from the lower cities, the female Commissioner had personally met them.

With these two groups finished, the female Commissioner gave Fang Ze some instructions to report to the Security Bureau promptly at 1 p.m., and then to accompany her on an investigation of the Council Members.

Meanwhile, she bowed her head to review documents and gestured for them to leave with a wave of her hand.

Seeing that the female Commissioner was busy, Fang Ze and the rest saluted and left the office.

Once Fang Ze and the others had left, the office fell into quiet again, save for the “scratch, scratch” of the female Commissioner’s pen moving across the paper.

Suddenly, as if struck by a thought, the female Commissioner’s movements slowly ceased.

She gripped the pen, her head gradually lifting, her sapphire eyes brimming with deep thought.

‘To conduct the investigation with just that Shadow Warrior…’

‘Does he already know the answer in advance, or is it that his ability doesn’t require meeting people?’

Pondering this theory, the female Commissioner slowly shook her head, denying her own speculation,

‘It cannot be the latter.’

‘The rule of this world is the stronger the ability, the greater the limitation.

Even if one has a very special ability and its limitations are minor, the essence of ability is the application of Laws; it must conform to the principles of the World Origin’s operation.’

‘Without interacting with or seeing the target, the Power of Laws cannot locate it.

Therefore, it’s impossible for him to uncover the truth without interacting with others.’

‘Could it be…

he has two abilities?

One for identifying identities and one for peeping into secrets?’

‘Or perhaps…

these abilities aren’t his at all.

Are they that Shadow Warrior’s?’

At this thought, the female Commissioner’s icy face filled with uncertainty.

It’s unknown how long passed, possibly a minute or maybe five or six.

The uncertainty on the Commissioner’s face faded, replaced by a faint smile.

She said lightly, “Even I cannot determine his abilities, much less others.

This is a good thing.”

In this world, abilities are manifold and varied, and the key lies in information and analysis.

To ensure safety, one must conceal their own abilities effectively and discern others’ abilities…

….

The rest of the morning, Fang Ze, under the guidance of a Commissioner called by Qing, the female Commissioner’s assistant, completed the employment procedures for himself and Nan Yi, Little You, and the others at the State Security Bureau.

Fang Ze was appointed the promised Director of the Judicial Department, while Nan Yi, Little You, and the others became official Commissioners at the State Security Bureau.

While handling the employment at the Personnel Department, Fang Ze also learned about the State Security Bureau’s situation.

Compared to the Security Bureau of Emerald City, the State Security Bureau was undoubtedly much stronger.

High-level Awakeners served as official Commissioners.

First and second-rank Fusers were senior Commissioners.

Third and fourth-rank Fusers were special Commissioners.

Group leaders and deputy leaders of various departments were typically at the peak of Fusion.

At the level of the department heads and deputy heads, everyone possessed mid-stage to peak Spirit Ascension powers.

The reason there were no initial-stage Spirit Ascension officials among these leaders was that those at the initial stage were too weak; officials at this stage would often be temporarily relieved of their duties by the Bureau, to peacefully overcome the challenge in the Spirit Realm’s secret bases.

Above the various department heads were the Bureau’s several Directors and Deputy Directors.

It was said that they were all masters above the Yang Transformation stage; as for which realm within that stage, no one knew.

There were even rumors within the bureau that the female Commissioner might have already broken through to Mortality-Shedding, but no one had verified it.

Of course, just like in high-level cities’ Security Bureaus, strength and realm were not the key to promotion.

Abilities and merit were what mattered.

With contributions and abilities, promotions could skyrocket.

Even if one’s realm fell short, the bureau would allocate resources to help them advance.

However, if one’s realm increased without matching contributions, they could only stay in their current position, waiting for opportunities or transitioning to a military position.

Therefore, under such circumstances, whether it was Fang Ze or Nan Yi, Little You, and the others, their powers actually fell short of their positions.

This made the Personnel Department Director, who came out to meet them, have an odd expression after learning about their abilities.

If it hadn’t been for the special permission slip from the female Commissioner, he might have even suspected that the individuals in front of him were causing trouble.

For Little You and Nan Yi, being one tier short of an official Commissioner was one thing.

But for someone like Fang Ze, who was publicly just at the peak of Fusion, the difference was a whole Great Realm!
