Chapter 168 Pah! I scared him to death!



Honey said, "What do you mean? Isn't it good to follow the rules?"

Li Xiyue said, "It is good to follow the rules, especially in the army. Comrades who follow the rules are generally good comrades!"

But one thing is certain: our opponents are ruthless villains who will stop at nothing. If all our comrades follow the rules, how can we fight against them?

Mi Bao clicked her tongue and said, "You're right. If all our comrades were law-abiding good comrades, how would we fight against bad guys?"

Li Xiyue said, "Actually, it's harder to be a good person than a bad person. You need to be more resourceful than bad people in order to avoid being harmed by them and to stop them."

With her X-ray vision, she watched Chief Zhao walk into the small building, and she felt a pang of worry for him!

She gently bit her lip and said to Mi Bao, "In my past life, even the Chief was implicated in Mu Cangnan's affair..."

Today I called Chief Zhao over and asked him to step in and protect Mu Cangnan.

I need to find evidence quickly to prove that Song Haoqiang framed Mu Cangnan; only then can we protect them both!

Mi Bao said, "Holy crap, now we not only have to protect Mu Cangnan, but also Chief Zhao. It feels like we're getting more and more work to do!"

Li Xiyue said, "There's no other way now, we can only take it one step at a time. Go in and check the situation!"

Mibao shook its fur. It seemed that this little cat was the most useful thing. It could enter and exit the space at any time and check the situation!

It darted out of Li Xiyue's space, jumped over the wall into the courtyard, and then climbed up the wall to the windowsill to observe the activity inside the office.

Now, sitting in the office is Captain Zhou from the inspection team.

He exchanged a few pleasantries with Chief Zhao, and the two sat on the sofa to discuss Mu Cangnan's case.

Captain Zhou said, "Commander Zhao, I'm so sorry, Section Chief Li was just struck by lightning and was rushed to the hospital."

I'm not sure about his current situation, and I'm also not sure if the Investigation Bureau should replace the section chief.

If you want to see Section Chief Li, you should wait a couple of days until he's feeling better and has been discharged from the hospital.

Chief Zhao sneered and said, "Are you trying to talk to me like an official? Just because Section Chief Li of the Investigation Bureau was struck by lightning, does that mean the entire Investigation Bureau will stop working?"

And you, Captain Zhou of the inspection team, are actually directing the investigation bureau's operations here? Aren't you overstepping your bounds?"

Captain Zhou's face stiffened, and he said, "You've misunderstood. I'm not here to direct the Investigation Bureau. How could I, as the captain of an inspection team, dare to direct the work of the Investigation Bureau?"

It was just too late, and a colleague from another unit asked me to stay here for the night. Unfortunately, Section Chief Li was struck by lightning, so I helped him with the reception arrangements.

"Well, you're here now! If you hadn't come, I'd be sleeping soundly in the duty room right now!"

Chief Zhao said with a sneer, "Are you saying I shouldn't have come, that my arrival has caused you trouble?"

Captain Zhou hurriedly said, "No! I absolutely didn't mean that, old leader, you can't misunderstand me!"

Chief Zhao said, "I need to see the head of the Investigation Bureau now. Where's Lao Wang? Where is Lao Wang?"

Captain Zhou said, "Director Wang is definitely at home. He can only come to work tomorrow."

Director Wang, you've worked hard all day, it's only natural for you to go home and rest in the evening, don't you agree?

Chief Zhao slammed his hand on the table and said, "I've come all this way, and he's still resting at home?"

It's normal for him to rest at home, but what about me? Am I the abnormal one? Get him here right now, I'm not waiting for anyone!

Captain Zhou's expression froze on his face; it was the first time he had ever seen such a difficult person to talk to!

The key point is that he really can't control Chief Zhao in his position, unless he has solid evidence to prove that Chief Zhao and Mu Cangnan are in cahoots!

He said, barely containing his anger, "Fine, I'll call Director Wang and ask him to come over!"

Commander Zhao said, "Go quickly, my patience is limited!"

Captain Zhou nodded and left the room.

After leaving the room, he spat on the ground and muttered under his breath, "Who does this old man think he is? Ha! At his age, he still dares to order me around. I'll make him die peacefully in his old age sooner or later!"

Honeybee squatted on the windowsill in the corridor, listening to Captain Zhou's cursing, and it meowed angrily.

Captain Zhou was startled to hear a noise behind him and turned around to look.

He unexpectedly saw a cat, put his hands on his hips, and rolled his eyes.

He muttered, "Oh, it was just a cat! It scared the hell out of me!"

He turned around and continued walking. It was just a cat; he didn't have time to argue with a cat!

Mi Bao's voice echoed back into the space, "Pah! I scared him to death!"

Li Xiyue instructed, "Follow him and see if he really called Director Wang."

Honey said, "I'm going to follow him right now!"

It was sitting on the windowsill outside when it pushed the window with its little paws and was surprised to find that the window was locked.

However, this situation did not stump it. It slammed its little paws on the glass and shattered it in one go.

Broken glass littered the floor. It shook its fur and slowly walked to the windowsill inside the window.

Then, it leaped to the ground, wagging its tail and strutting like a cat, to find Captain Zhou.

The sound of shattering glass startled the other comrades in the building. Some of them ran out to check and were surprised to see broken glass all over the floor!

How could the glass have broken on such a perfectly normal day, with no one around and no lightning?

Adding to the unexpected events that happened today, those who came to check on the situation felt a chill run down their spines.

He turned around and ran back to tell his comrades about the situation!

Soon, everyone in the investigation bureau knew that a pane of glass had shattered out of nowhere. Why did it shatter?

I don't know, it just broke on its own!

Could it be the work of a vengeful spirit?

Although no one said it aloud, everyone tacitly thought in this direction!

Honeybee crept quietly to the outside of a room and used its X-ray vision to observe the situation inside.

Captain Zhou actually picked up the phone and made a call to Director Wang.

"Hello, is this Director Wang? This is Xiao Zhou. I'm so sorry to bother you so late!"

But I really can't take it anymore. Chief Zhao, Mu Cangnan's superior, actually came to the Investigation Bureau!

Section Chief Li was struck by lightning and taken to the hospital. I'm just an outsider here, so I'm not in a good position! Chief Zhao wants to take Mu Cangnan away!

Director Wang, I think Chief Zhao is also highly suspicious. If he and Mu Cangnan weren't in cahoots, why was he in such a hurry to take Mu Cangnan away?

The voice of Director Wang came through the phone receiver, "Your analysis is absolutely right! I'm not going to see Director Zhao now. Let him wait if he wants! Who does he think he is? Humph!"
