Sure enough, the bureau chief suddenly remembered something and said, "Minister Ye, let's talk."

Xiaoxi: Oh no, trouble is brewing!

"Minister Ye, I have a favor to ask, and I beg you to do me this favor!"

Xiaoxi spoke cautiously, "Director, please speak first, and see if I can help with this."

The head of the fourth precinct looked very serious.

"You probably saw the news a while ago. Our comrade Liao Hai from the Fourth Criminal Investigation Brigade was injured in a fierce battle with criminals while on duty, and he is still lying in the intensive care unit of the hospital."

Xiaoxi's heart skipped a beat. She had been busy with the construction of buildings on Guangda Street and hadn't paid much attention to the news.

All Xiaoxi knew was that a criminal with homemade explosives strapped to his waist had stormed into an elementary school and attacked people, and that some police officers had been injured. She didn't know any other specific details.

The head of the Fourth Precinct was a straightforward person. He could tell from Xiaoxi's expression that she was unaware of the incident and strongly disagreed with it.

Is your position as head of this secret department just a sinecure? Don't you even know how much our police officers sacrifice for maintaining social order?

So he then briefly recounted the incident.

"On June 15, an incident occurred at Shenhai Elementary School where an assailant attacked people with a knife, injuring several teachers and students."

Our criminal investigation team arrived in time, and the criminal, having exhausted all other options, pulled the fuse on his homemade bomb.

Our detective Liao Hai, in order to rescue more teachers and students, bravely threw himself at the criminal in a split second. The bomb detonated, and Liao Hai was seriously injured.

Xiaoxi only then learned that, in the end, the criminals were killed on the spot, and the brave criminal police officer Liao Hai not only had both arms amputated, but also became a vegetable.

The Fourth Precinct Chief's implication is that since Xiaoxi is the head of a secret government department, are you just going to stand idly by and do nothing about this?

This raises the issue to a certain level. Although it has a hint of moral blackmail, the person must be saved. Could you, Xiaoxi, refuse to save this hero?

It is known that this hero, Liao Hai, had only recently gotten married and was facing the pain and torment of his family.

Xiaoxi's head is very big; this person must be saved.

"Okay, Director, don't worry, I'll do my best!" Xiaoxi replied. How could she not save him? Of course not.

Since she had encountered this person who was cultivating immortality, and since she herself was practicing the righteous path, she had to take action.

Ye Lingfeng looked at Xiao Xi and knew that this matter was very troublesome.

But if Xiaoxi refuses, he will be disappointed. In short, his feelings are very complicated, and he can also sense that this matter is not over yet.

Xiaoxi agreed to save the person, but repeatedly reminded the Fourth Precinct Chief that the matter must be kept secret and not let more people know about it.

The head of the Fourth Precinct said he could cooperate with Xiaoxi to keep the matter confidential.

That night.

Liao Hai was secretly transferred to the Academy of Sciences' factory.

Because Liao Hai's condition was very serious, thunder began to rumble continuously over the Academy of Sciences as soon as he was put to bed in the medical physiotherapy pod.

A series of thunderbolts struck the factory, leaving Ye Lingfeng bewildered.

Fortunately, Ye Lingfeng and his team had built a powerful lightning rod, and the factory had a barrier set up by Xiao Xibu, so the lightning strikes couldn't harm them.

But Ye Lingfeng finally understood from Xiao Xi's expression that even the heavens did not approve of their research; this was probably what was meant by the denial from the will of heaven.

The thunderclap also alarmed Dean Wang, mainly because he was terrified of the previous severe convective weather. He risked being struck by lightning and rushed to the factory overnight.
