Once, I wanted to be a good person

Chapter 124 2. Going to the Red Light District (10,000 words for monthly ticket!)_3

The nameplate on the office door read: Gu Qing.

He pushed open the door, walked in, then sat down on the chair, lifted his feet onto the desk, reclined there, closed his eyes, and thought about going back to sleep.

Just then, suddenly, his office door was knocked on loudly.

Without even opening his eyes, the man shouted, "Come in."

The door swung open, and the bespectacled woman who had led the interrogation of Fang Ze this morning walked in expressionlessly.

An entire day's work left no trace of fatigue on her face or any mark on her clothes.

She carried a stack of documents to the desk, dumped them with a thud, and said coldly, "Coming in right before quitting time, you've piled up so much work. Is this how you perform as a director?"

Gu Qing, head resting on the chair, his body forming a "√" shape, replied weakly without opening his eyes, "Deputy, deputy..."

"Wouldn't it have been better if you had contacted Bai Zhi about it?"

"Isn't she back?"

Gu Qing would have been fine had he not mentioned Bai Zhi, but at the mention of her name, the bespectacled woman's expression turned colder as she said, "Talking about Bai Zhi, you don't even know the trouble her new recruit has caused. The issues it brought for Security Bureau..."

Gu Qing quickly waved his hands, "Stop, stop, stop. Enough."

"I am working, working."

With that, he lowered his legs and began to go through the documents.

Seeing him like this, the bespectacled woman finally stopped speaking.

However, she crossed her arms, scrutinizing Gu Qing's clothing.

After a moment, upon noticing a lipstick mark on Gu Qing's collar, her gaze sharpened slightly before she asked, "Did you go fool around in the Red Light District last night?"

A gentle breeze blows, immensely pleasant.

After 8 PM, Fang Ze left Bai Zhi's villa, ready to head to the Red Light District to connect with people from the Rejuvenation Society in the Emerald City, to see if he could gather some clues, or perhaps... after the encounter, use what he learned in the Late-Night Investigation Room.

After heading out, he hailed a cab, got in, and gave the address.

Perhaps because the advanced city life here was closer to the life Fang Ze had in his previous life, he felt inexplicably reassured upon arriving in Emerald City...

The car travelled for 20 minutes and stopped at an intersection, where Fang Ze paid the fare and got out.

What he stepped into was a bustling area filled with bright lights and greenery everywhere, women dressed revealingly and sexily, and drunken patrons.

And... a few uniformed Investigators, grappling with a scruffy-looking, poorly-dressed man.

Fang Ze paused for a moment as he was about to enter but then suddenly his face showed surprise.

He raised his hand and called out, "Mouse? Are you on duty today?"

Hearing Fang Ze's voice, Wang Hao, who was grappling with a man who had forgotten his ID, looked up.

Seeing Fang Ze, his face showed a hint of surprise before he blurted out, "Fang Ze? You're still alive?"

Fang Ze: ...

Wang Hao realized his mistake and chuckled awkwardly, then said, "Sorry. I mean... are you OK?"

As he spoke, he added, "I heard that you, I heard you... that..."

Seeing Wang Hao's hesitant manner, Fang Ze immediately understood what he meant.

Fang Ze smiled and said, "Meh. A minor issue. It's all settled." Stay updated with empire

Hearing Fang Ze's words, Wang Hao couldn't help but be a bit shocked.
