"What the hell? From before the Mist Era?! Captain Lu, are you kidding us?" Dennis exclaimed, his eyes wide.
“I can believe everything else you say, but I definitely can’t believe a thing about you. Our Federation’s most powerful Lord Li Yang only awakened after the Mist Era. If you were a human before the Mist Era, wouldn’t you be a god by now?” Eileen said.
Nan Yu nodded slightly, then said, "This must be a joke. I don't have this message in my contacts."
"I don't believe it either. Captain Lu, you said you don't joke around." Xu Hui rolled his eyes: "You have to admit, your jokes are quite funny."
Lu Ning calmly said, "I'm telling the truth."
Everyone rolled their eyes, not believing it.
Seeing that no one believed him, Lu Ning said no more.
He continued to stare blankly at the screen.
Eileen smiled and suggested to Lu Ning, "I don't know what Ke Qing's personality is like. If you rashly ask her to meet alone, it might make her wary. I think you can take it one step at a time. You can use our identities. Aren't we investigating the anomalies in the base city? You can use that to find their action team and say you want to learn about the cases they've handled in the past year, while also saying you need to go and investigate in person."
"So you need someone to accompany you, right? Try to get Keqing to go with you, then you can act alone. Plus, you can also find out about the recent cases in the base city. It's a win-win situation."
Eileen's words shocked Dennis, Xu Hui, and Song Sinian, who stared wide-eyed with obvious surprise and a look of having learned something.
Xu Hui murmured, "...Could it be that you're a genius?"
Dennis exclaimed incredulously, "Holy crap! You're my own sister! Please teach me how to woo girls!"
Eileen rolled her eyes and kicked Dennis away: "I'm your mother!"
"Mother! Teach me how to woo girls!" Dennis slid down to Eileen's feet.
Eileen: "?"
She looked at Dennis with disdain and silently took a few steps away.
Nan Yu nodded slightly: "Lu Ning, you can do as Eileen suggests. To be honest, Eileen's idea is really good."
Eileen tilted her head slightly and laughed, "Nonsense, I'm a woman, of course I know how to approach a woman without being repulsive!"
Lu Ning nodded: "Thank you."
Eileen smiled slightly: "If you want to thank me, treat me to dinner when you get back."
"good."
Song Sinian, who was standing to the side, was shocked and his eyes widened.
Lu Ning exited Ke Qing's chat page, opened Karen's page, and sent a message: "Hello, Captain Karen, this is Lu Ning. I'd like to visit your action team. Is that convenient?"
A short while later, Karen replied: "Of course it's convenient. We're at the branch office now, and I'll send you the location."
Karen then sent over some coordinates.
Eileen watched from the side and nodded, saying, "It went quite smoothly."
Nan Yu said, "Lu Ning, then you can set off."
Lu Ning nodded and left the room.
…………
Lu Ning drove Colin's SUV toward the coordinates on his phone.
Like Base City 116, Base City 121 is a small base city with a similar layout.
Because their hotel was located in the central area of the base city, it wasn't far from any other area.
Lu Ning drove his SUV and arrived at the entrance of the First Branch in less than half an hour.
After parking, Lu Ning entered the lobby.
The receptionist in the lobby was a middle-aged, beautiful woman with curly hair.
She heard footsteps and looked up.
Upon seeing Lu Ning, she smiled and asked, "Hello, are you Commander Lu Ning?"
Lu Ning nodded slightly: "I am Lu Ning."
“I am Maggie, the receptionist from the first division. Captain Karen has instructed me to take you to the activity room if it is Commander Lu.”
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
"Commander Lu, you're too kind. Please come this way."
Maggie raised her hand to lead the way, and Lu Ning followed.
The layout of the first branch of Base 121 is exactly the same as that of their seventh branch.
Lu Ning wondered if all the branches of the Fog Bureau in small base cities had the same layout.
However, Lu Ning had not been to other branches, so he was not entirely sure.
The two took the elevator and quickly arrived at the third floor.
Looking at the layout of the corridor and room, Lu Ning even thought for a moment that he had returned to Base City 116 and the Seventh Division.
However, the unfamiliar voices coming from the activity room brought Lu Ning back to reality.
This is not the seventh division.
He followed Maggie to the door of the activity room.
Lu Ning saw that there were five action team members inside.
Karen and Keqing are both here.
Karen was eating dessert, while Ke Qing was playing a fighting game with a male operative.
Maggie knocked on the door, which caught Karen's attention.
Upon seeing Lu Ning, Karen put the cake in her mouth, wiped her hands with a wet tissue, and stood up to greet him: "Hello, Captain Lu."
The members of the action team nearby also looked over, sizing up Lu Ning, some even wary.
The fact that a survey team dispatched from federal headquarters is now investigating their branch is clearly a sign of distrust.
But they couldn't say much.
Lu Ning nodded and said, "Captain Karen, I'm sorry to have disturbed you."
Karen smiled and said, "It's not a bother. There have been very few disease outbreaks in Zone 1 lately, so we've had quite a bit of free time. Sometimes we can even do part-time jobs."
