Representative Lee's tone was very flat.

But a chill ran down Hong Qiming's spine.

He hurriedly asked, "So what do you mean...?"

Instead of replying immediately, Representative Lee pressed a button next to his desk.

"Have the results come out yet?" Councilor Lee asked in a calm tone.

The next moment, a calm male voice came from the office: "From the time he entered the office to the time he left, a total of eleven minutes and twenty-five seconds passed. During this time, Lü Yongchang's heartbeat fluctuated twice, and he also experienced a series of symptoms such as pupil constriction."

"when?"

"The first time was while responding to your question, and the second time was before leaving the office."

Representative Lee nodded thoughtfully and asked again, "What did the psychological evaluation say?"

"...Based on the assessment, Lü Yongchang should not have any bad intentions, and everything he said should be the truth from the bottom of his heart."

"However, he concealed some things."

Representative Lee nodded slowly.

That makes sense.

This feeling had been in his heart ever since he met Lü Yongchang.

It seems that... Lü Yongchang is hiding a huge secret in his heart.

Hong Qiming swallowed hard and asked in a low voice, "Councilor Li, how about... we remove Lü Yongchang from his title as chief engineer of controlled nuclear fusion?"

Representative Lee's lips curled slightly upward, a meaningful smile appearing on his wrinkled face.

No rush.

"Having secrets is not a problem. Everyone has secrets, including me and you."

As he spoke, Councilor Li's gaze lingered briefly on Hung Chi-ming's face.

Hong Qiming's heart skipped a beat.

After a brief pause, Representative Lee continued speaking.

"All I need to know is that he has no ill intentions towards the Xia Kingdom."

"Moreover, he has made such a great contribution to controlled nuclear fusion. Xia Guo is definitely not a country that will discard someone after they have served their purpose!"

Hong Qiming looked at Councilor Li with some confusion: "Then..."

After a moment of contemplation, Representative Li slowly said, "Let him continue to serve as chief engineer."

"In addition, start the second experiment as soon as possible."

"I hope that within a year, the light of fusion can shine brightly across the land of Xia!"
