In the interrogation room, Chen Yanan glanced at Li Nanshan, who was being held on the interrogation table, and sighed helplessly, saying, "Xiao Lingzi, pour me a cup of coffee."
"Yes, Director Chen."
Li Ling, full of confidence, nodded neither humbly nor arrogantly, then calmly put down the documents in his arms and began to work on them on his own.
Chen Yanan glanced at him and was momentarily surprised.
In the past, whenever Li Ling wanted to order him around, you could see a lot of dissatisfaction in his facial expressions.
It's as if they feel they were born to do great things, just like doing such small things would lower their status.
But now, while that dissatisfaction isn't entirely absent, it's certainly not as strong as before.
To put it bluntly, much of Li Ling's arrogance has been worn away.
What remains is composure and confidence.
Such a sudden and drastic change is truly unbelievable; it's hard to believe what he's been through during this time.
Thinking of this, Director Chen couldn't help but look at Lin Mo with even greater respect.
To be able to suppress a person's most indomitable arrogance to such an extent in such a short time without hurting their self-esteem...
This demonstrates an unimaginable level of understanding and application of human nature.
Even Chen Yanan herself found it difficult to do this.
The intelligence agency has always had a close relationship with the interrogation department, and Chen Yanan would intervene almost every time there was an important interrogation.
Her ability to control people's hearts was honed here.
Even she couldn't have trained Li Ling to this extent in such a short time.
It's easy to imagine how twisted Lin Mo is.
He was so abnormal that Chen Yanan had lost all confidence in even trying to win him over.
...But no matter what, I have to give it a try.
If you were to desert your post, that wouldn't be in line with your character.
Thinking of this, Chen Yanan smiled and glanced at the serious-looking Fu Taibu beside her, saying, "Oh, my little Taibu, how is that fortune teller named Lin Mo in your family doing lately?"
"none of your business."
Fu Xuan said coldly without turning his head.
"Oh dear, Master Diviner, don't be so fierce. I'm not going to eat your little diviner."
This time, Fu Xuan glanced back at her and then suddenly said, "You should be secretly glad that Lin Mo didn't devour you completely."
"Haven't you realized the seriousness of the problem after losing millions of credits?"
Hearing this, Chen Yanan's lips twitched, then she said with a hint of resentment, "How can that be considered a loss? Although the general likes to make empty promises to you, I'm different! I don't covet his general's position~ I just want to make my intelligence agency bigger and stronger~ Besides, the intelligence agency has achieved remarkable military exploits in recent years, how could he not agree~"
"Hmph, the general treats everyone the same."
Fu Xuan snorted coldly, then ignored Chen Yanan and looked at Li Nanshan, who was tied up, with a murderous gaze.
Seeing this, Chen Yanan couldn't help but sigh.
She had originally intended to casually bring up some nonsensical topics to ease her little fortune teller's bleak mood.
After all, being betrayed by your most trusted subordinate is not a pleasant experience.
It's even more heartbreaking when a betrayed subordinate refuses to admit it.
Chen Yanan deeply understands this point.
The effect wasn't exactly bad, but it was practically nonexistent.
"I didn't! I really didn't create those mysterious spells on the formation! You have to believe me!"
"I'm truly innocent!"
Li Nanshan said with a face full of grief and indignation.
The interrogator glanced to the side with an expressionless face, then said calmly, "Distinguished officers, I'm sorry, the prisoner remains uncooperative during the interrogation."
Upon hearing this, the usually composed Fu Taibu finally couldn't hold back any longer. She suddenly stood up from her seat, ignored everyone's advice, and resolutely walked into the interrogation room.
"Enough! Li Nanshan!"
A sharp, high-pitched scream startled Li Nanshan, who then looked up with a pale face at the approaching Fu Taibu.
"The Great Evolution Qiong Guan Array suffered this level of damage for the first time because of a problem with the Cosmic Harmony Array you were in charge of. Now that repairs are imminent, a virus capable of severely damaging the Great Evolution Qiong Guan Array has been detected on your Cosmic Harmony Array again. How can I trust you!"
He tried to speak, but couldn't utter a single word. He could only stare blankly at the furious Fu Xuan with a bitter expression.
"If you say you're innocent, then why didn't you notice the existence of this array virus when you're constantly repairing the Cosmic Array, while the two of us detected it?"
"Where in the world can such a coincidence happen?"
"You say someone wants to frame you, but you spend all your time with the Zhouhe Formation, you don't have a single disciple under your command, and among all the people in the Taibu Division who are skilled in the Zhouhe Formation, who can compare to you, Li Nanshan? Who could possibly frame you?"
"I...I..." Li Nanshan said with a bitter face, his heart filled with grief and indignation, but even more so with helplessness in the face of reality.
"The evidence is irrefutable! Do you still not know how to repent?!"
Fu Xuan's imposing aura instilled fear in those around him.
He has the air of an emperor, but he seems to lack a certain composure.
After saying these words, Fu Xuan sighed slowly, and most of the anger and resentment in his heart dissipated.
She glanced at Li Nanshan, who was chained to the interrogation table, and said with a complicated expression, "Master Li, you have served in my Imperial Divination Office for over seventy years. Now that you have caused such a mess, do you not feel even a little bit of remorse?"
