Once, I wanted to be a good person

After much thought, he realized that his low status made him easily underestimated, which should earn him the opportunity to make a move.

But that opportunity would only come once.

Once he made his move, people would see that he had the strength to harm a Fuser, and most likely, he wouldn't be given a second chance.

Therefore, he must decide the entire battle with one strike!

So, when he arrived on the battlefield, he immediately increased the "Throwing Stick's" "power multiplier" to 100 times.

He used it five times consecutively and employed the "Void Token" to Blink five times.

Only then did he accomplish the feat of instantly killing five Fusers!

However, this came with a significant cost.

Raising the multiplier from 50 times to 100 times wasn't just a matter of doubling the expense, but it quadrupled!

Each strike was a staggering sixty thousand Lini!

And Fang Ze used five strikes in one go! That's three hundred thousand Lini!

On top of that, the blow from the red-robed assailant caused three of the four defensive artifacts Bai Zhi had given him to shatter!

And One Two Three, that silly dog, used the opportunity to produce Treant Essence, which takes a month to condense, just to save someone.

Fang Ze felt he had made a huge loss this time!

He spent hundreds of thousands of Lini in one night!

If he had been with Wang Hao heading to the Red Light District of Emerald City, how many extravagant nights could he have enjoyed!

So, if the Security Bureau doesn't reimburse him,

He really wants to dig a hole, and with tears, bury Bai Zhi and Bai Ling back...

While he was thinking like this, suddenly, his room door was knocked on "bang bang bang."

Lying on the bed, Fang Ze and Bai Ling sitting by the bed couldn't help but look up, then saw Bai Zhi, Wang Hao, and Director Pang standing outside the door.

Seeing his benefactor sister, Fang Ze's smile was particularly brilliant, he hurriedly greeted her, "Officer Bai Zhi has come, come in, please sit. Don't be shy."

Seeing Fang Ze, the expressions on the faces of the three people at the door were a bit complex.

Director Pang was relatively easy to read. He was always the same, smiling and amiable.

But after seeing the strength Fang Ze displayed today, he seemed to bend over much further, and his smile was even more radiant and flattering.

The expressions of Bai Zhi and Wang Hao, however, were particularly interesting.

Bai Zhi knew Fang Ze was an Awakener and even suspected he had decent strength.

But... she really hadn't expected Fang Ze to be strong to such an extent.

Instantly killing five Fusers.

Although there were severe side effects, even rendering one of his hands useless, it was still shocking.

Was it a spatial slashing ability?

Or some other powerful Awakening Ability?

She didn't know.

But what she did know was that she must keep Fang Ze by her side, even if she had to tie him down to have him!

Such talent must be hers!

Wang Hao was even more bemused.

He had never expected that his roommate, a criminal, would transform from an ordinary person into a strong individual capable of slaying Fusers in just ten short days.

Moreover... from a criminal to becoming an honored guest of the Special Case Team.

Last time Fang Ze brought Bai Ling back, everyone was shocked.

They couldn't understand how a criminal could escort an official from the Security Bureau back to the Special Case Team.

What was this supposed to mean?

Your subjects are ready for a Battle to the Death, why is the empress seeking marriage?

And today's events were even more bizarre.

They were originally in a desperate situation.

Yet the pursued criminal, the one being manipulated, ended up saving them?!

What exactly is the identity of this criminal? And what is his relationship with the Security Bureau?

Just now, Wang Hao had heard more than one of his colleagues from the Special Case Team analyzing.

They suspected that actually... the entire Special Case Team was an immense conspiracy, a plot within a plot within a plot.

In their analysis, the Security Bureau had laid out a triple-layered scheme.

The first layer is superficial: Fang Ze was an investigator, as were everyone else. They then worked together to solve the case.

The second layer is deeper: In fact, Fang Ze was a criminal! Everyone deceived him, telling him that he was an investigator! Then they played along with him, using his residual memory to help solve the case.

The third layer is the deepest and might just be the truth!

Fang Ze was actually an officer from the Security Bureau!

After this case occurred, the Security Bureau suspected that there was an internal traitor within the Investigation Bureau!

So, they had Fang Ze pretend to be injured, to be used as bait, and they set up the Special Case Team as a trap!

Then Fang Ze and Bai Zhi played their roles both inside and out, joining forces to investigate the case! To catch the traitor!

Didn't you see Han Kaiwei was caught by Fang Ze like this?

Didn't you see the second traitor was forced out (ran away and got killed) like this?

Didn't you see Cui Xuemin, Shan Hui was found out like this?

When this speculation was brought up, it immediately received approval from everyone in the Special Case Team.

They all thought the Security Bureau's scheme was incredibly deep!

They thought they were the ones acting, but it turned out they were the ones being played!

.....

Bai Zhi, Wang Hao, and Director Pang came over to sit for a while and showed concern for Fang Ze before they left.

Before leaving, Bai Zhi left Fang Ze with a small bottle, which looked to contain two grams of Treant Essence.

According to her, it was originally prepared for her own healing. But now, under the care of One Two Three's healing, she was already fine, whereas Fang Ze still had a broken arm, so she gave the medicine to Fang Ze to use first.

Fang Ze accepted it without making a fuss.

Straight after, once the three people left, more "colleagues," familiar and unfamiliar, came to visit Fang Ze in succession.

Perhaps because the rumor of multiple layers within layers sounded so plausible, coupled with Fang Ze saving everyone's lives,

everyone was extremely respectful and cautious when facing Fang Ze.

This left Fang Ze completely puzzled, unaware of what had happened.

And after all the people had left,

Fang Ze finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Running all the way and having fought such a battle, he was genuinely a bit tired.

Especially since his right hand was still not healed, he wanted to settle down and properly treat his injury.

And just as he was thinking this, suddenly, a beautiful head popped out of his shadow: it was Fang Ze's newly acquired, gorgeous Shadow Warrior.

The female Shadow Warrior looked around to make sure there were no strangers around, then emerged from Fang Ze's shadow and came before him with a letter in her hands.

Fang Ze looked at her, his face full of question marks.

She said in her lively voice, "Master. Someone who visited just now stealthily dropped this on the floor. Your servant thought it might be of use to you, so I quietly picked it up."

Hearing her words, Fang Ze's face filled with even more question marks.

Someone dropped it on the floor?

Was it meant for him?

He took the letter with a puzzled look, checked it to confirm it was just a normal letter, then opened it.

The content of the letter was not long, only a few short lines, but at a glance, Fang Ze's expression changed dramatically.

[Fang Ze, upon reading this, consider it as if seeing me in person. Do you want to know the intelligence on another organization?]

[Do you want to know who the real insider in the Special Case Team is?]

[Do you want to know who has been protecting you all along?]

[Do you want to know the whole truth of this matter?]

[Tomorrow, at 18:00, in Qingshan City, on the rooftop terrace of the Investigation Bureau, we will not miss each other.....]

If it were just this content, Fang Ze might not have been so shocked. What shocked him more was the sentence below.

[Oh, and don't tell the Security Bureau about this. After all, you wouldn't want others to know that you are not "Fang Ze," right?]

Upon reading this sentence, Fang Ze's heart clenched.

He quickly wanted to see who had left this letter.

Even a code name would be useful, to allow him to analyze in advance.

But.....there was no signature at the end of the letter, only a pattern of a "black palm with a huge eye in the center of it."

That was the totem of the Rejuvenation Society......
