Why should someone's ancestors' efforts over hundreds of years be less effective than your decades of hard work?
In the Assyrian kingdom, titles and positions were two different concepts. Titles only guaranteed one's status and a minimum standard of living, while positions represented true rights.
Therefore, the Assyrian Kingdom also had many impoverished nobles who only had a title and could receive some money each month, but they could barely maintain a decent life.
But the Earl of Celt and his family are a very powerful political force in the kingdom, and Chief Grace can't afford to offend them.
So he also looked conflicted at this moment, and Hughes and Lenser just looked at Chief Grace without saying a word.
Neither of the two paths is easy to choose.
Choosing a choice against one's will might leave Chief Grace with a lingering sense of unease for the rest of her life.
It's dangerous; he might end up losing his position as bureau chief.
Yang Cheng didn't urge her, but just silently watched Grace's choice.
With his current strength, he could indeed defeat the Celts without much effort.
But he was just a special advisor, not the director. Yang Cheng didn't choose to get involved in things that weren't his responsibility, but rather let Grace decide for herself.
If he himself was afraid of the Celtic Earl's power and unwilling to risk his future, Yang Cheng naturally wouldn't have made a move.
After a long pause, Chief Grace abruptly flung his hat off and shouted, "Investigate! Investigate to the end! Otherwise, what's the point of me being the chief?"
"From the moment I took over the West District, I swore that I would never allow such a muddled and wrongful conviction to occur again!"
Grace has been nurturing the younger generation of the West District Police Department over the years. People like Hughes and Lenser are young, but they are very capable and no less so than the elites of the Central District Police Department.
He envisioned that the generation he had trained would produce even more elites, completely transforming the atmosphere of the entire Western District Police Station.
Everyone's watching now. If he chooses to compromise and back down, what will Hughes and Lenser, these young police officers, think?
Even if he loses his position as bureau chief, it doesn't matter, since he's almost retired anyway.
But he could not extinguish the fire in the hearts of these young people!
Yang Cheng nodded slightly and said, "When investigating someone of the Celtic Earl's rank, shouldn't we report to the police headquarters in advance?"
Grace smiled wryly, "It's not just about needing to report in advance, it also requires applying for a special investigation order, which is most likely impossible to obtain in this situation."
Yang Cheng waved his hand and said, "Let's ignore that for now. Let's get the charges against that guy Celt solid, and then put them in front of the police headquarters. Let them decide how to handle it."
Grace nodded in agreement immediately.
It's all the better that Yang Cheng is willing to help. If he were to investigate on his own, he wouldn't even be able to get into the Earl of Celt's house.
To avoid any unforeseen complications, Yang Cheng and Master Morton decided to act immediately that very night.
The Celtic Earl is probably unaware of the problem in the dungeon, which presents a perfect opportunity to catch them off guard.
Grace, disguised, led a group of police officers to a luxurious villa area in the city center.
"Mr. Yang, Master Morton, that's the Celtic Earl's manor, and it seems there are quite a few extraordinary individuals guarding it."
Although Mr. Yang killed three of his superhumans last time, it seems he has hired several more.
So infiltrating in seems a bit tricky.
Yang Cheng squinted and said, "It's alright. Once we've wiped them all out, no one will be able to find out that we've entered."
Grace and Master Morton were both slightly speechless.
Yang Cheng's method is too simple and crude, although it seems to make sense.
Master Morton said, "We don't need to be so dramatic right from the start. Let's sneak in first and see if we find anything."
As he spoke, Master Morton tossed Yang Cheng a small medicine bottle.
"Open the medicine bottle; the powder inside can help us become invisible and conceal our scent."
Yang Cheng examined the powder and found no trace of extraordinary power within it.
But after the powder was opened, it naturally scattered in the air and adhered to Yang Cheng's body, and his whole body actually became assimilated with the surrounding environment.
Master Morton also activated his invisibility powder, and the two of them openly infiltrated the Celtic Earl's manor.
