"Name!"
"Fang Ze."
"Gender!"
"Um... Officer, I think I'm quite easy to identify, am I not?"
"Stop evading the question! Answer seriously."
"Er. Male."
"Age!"
"18."
"Hmm?"
"I am forever 18 years old."
"...." Continue your adventure at empire
In a dim interrogation room, Fang Ze sat well-behaved on a chair, his hands shackled in Law Prohibition cuffs.
Across from him, three plainclothes officers from the Security Bureau, with an air of authority that was anything but ordinary, were taking notes while asking him questions.
The middle-aged man leading the trio stared at him and said, "Now, I ask and you answer."
"Why did you kill the Director of the Investigation Bureau of Qingshan City, Pang Men?"
Fang Ze, "Because he was a mole planted inside the Investigation Bureau by a certain organization. Then he tried to kill me. I was forced to retaliate."
The middle-aged man asked, "Which organization?"
Fang Ze replied, "I can't say. That's classified under the Security Bureau, I can only report to Officer Bai Zhi. I'm not sure if you are entitled to know."
The three commissioners exchanged glances with each other.
The middle-aged man jotted down a few notes, then asked, "So how did you kill him?"
Fang Ze replied, "He was an Awakener at the Fusion stage. But his primary ability was Dry Bones."
"The function of this Awakening Ability is to merge the soul into the bones, abandoning the physical body. Afterwards, he would kill other creatures and turn them into skins, which could be switched at will."
Inside the monitoring room, the others glanced at her frustrated retreating figure, and then their attention involuntarily fell on another woman in the room who sat with her arms crossed.
The woman appeared young, but she wore black-framed glasses and was dressed in a sharp black business suit.
The suit was so neatly tailored there wasn't a single crease, just like the woman herself – no nonsense, extremely serious.
Bai Zhi's departure didn't seem to distract her in the least.
Sensing the others' looks, without even moving her eyes, she just crossed her arms and shook her head slightly, signaling that they need not bother.
Seeing the woman's gesture, everyone else resumed their task without further comment, continuing to record the details of the interrogation.....
....
Upon exiting the monitoring room, Bai Zhi stood with hands on hips, her chest heaving with rapid breaths of anger.
Seeing her in such a state, Bai Ling, who had been waiting outside, approached with a concerned expression, and then looking at Bai Zhi hesitantly asked, "Bai, are you okay?"
Just as Bai Zhi was about to reply to her concerned inquiry,
Bai Ling added another question, "Is Fang Ze alright?"
The air Bai Zhi was holding in her chest nearly choked her!
She snorted coldly, "What could possibly happen to him?! He's doing damn well!"
"Impressive indeed!"
"He goes to Qingshan City for a trip and ends up killing Director Pang of the Investigation Bureau!"
"That's a city's Investigation Bureau Director we're talking about!"
"Great job! He triggered a level 2 martial readiness alert for the entire city! Even the Governing Hall was stirred up!"
"If I hadn't arrived in time, he'd probably already be locked up!"
"On the way to Emerald City, he didn't say a word about it, just entrusted me with a few tasks!"
"Once at the Security Bureau, he wasn't any calmer. In front of Gu Qing's people, he was all smiles and would say nothing of substance!"
"Whatever they asked him, he claimed it was classified. He could only disclose it to me alone!"
Bai Zhi, pointing towards the interrogation room, said with a look of disbelief, "The problem is, he hasn't said anything to me either!"
