Once, I wanted to be a good person

"This is already a negative evaluation in my assessment,"

"As a result, recently, a new force has emerged in the slums, wiping out all the gangs that previously controlled the area."

"The result is that they don't know how to manage it."

He sighed at this point, "It's such chaos, alas...."

Bai Ling had merely made a casual polite remark, but who knew Director Pang would spill so much bitterness. So, she was somewhat dumbfounded.

And so, the two of them walked and chatted, quickly exiting the Special Case Team, and then arriving at the narrow path that was necessary to leave the villa.

The summer night forest, although pitch-black, was not creepy, but instead filled with the sounds of cicadas and birds, giving a sense of vibrant life.

Lady Bai Zhi, dressed in white and with her waist cinched, stood in the middle of the road, floating like a celestial being.

If she remained silent, without thinking, anyone who saw her at this moment would probably think she was a fairy exiled from heaven.

Seeing her from a distance, Bai Ling and Director Pang exchanged a look, then quickened their pace and walked over,

"Bai,"

"Your Excellency."

Hearing the greetings from the two, Bai Zhi came back to her senses. She turned around, looked at the two of them, and said indifferently, "You've arrived?"

Bai Ling and Director Pang nodded.

Then Bai Ling asked, "Bai, why did you call us here?"

Bai Zhi looked towards the end of the road, and then said, "Preparing to welcome a few people."

"Welcoming people?" Bai Ling asked with a bit of confusion, tilting her head.

Bai Zhi continued, "Also to take a casual stroll."

Having said that, she lazily stretched, her exquisite figure fully displayed.

Then she said, "There's going to be a big battle soon. So, I came out for a walk."

"A big battle?" Both Bai Ling and Director Pang were clearly surprised.

Bai Zhi nodded, then said, "Yes."

Then, she briefly informed them about the news of the Rejuvenation Society's impending attack on the Special Case Team and said, "I've reported this information to the bureau."

"The bureau's order is to have us stand by in our current location and deal with the attacking criminals here."

Hearing Bai Zhi's words, Director Pang couldn't help frowning slightly.

Meanwhile, Bai Ling exclaimed in surprise, "Ah? Deal with the attacking criminals on the spot? But the other party is the aggressor with definitely more people than us."

"Is it about how we deal with them or how they deal with us?"

Bai Zhi smiled and said, "That's why... the bureau has sent reinforcements to help us."

At this point, as if sensing something, she looked up towards the end of the road, "Look, here they come."

During the conversation, three figures slowly approached from the distance.

Among the three people, there were two men and one woman.

The woman was very beautiful, with a black band tied over her eyes. Despite supposedly being unable to see the road ahead, she walked as usual.

The two men were robust and muscular, with strong and broad backs, obviously identical twins.

As the three approached and saw Bai Zhi, they quickly stopped and bowed deeply to her, saying, "Lady Bai Zhi. We've arrived."

Bai Zhi nodded, then warmly said, "Thank you for your efforts. Please go with Director Pang first to the secret base to rest a bit."

"We'll have an operation meeting later."

The three nodded and then turned to look at Director Pang.

Seeing the three, Director Pang's expression was clearly much warmer than it was with Bai Ling. He bowed slightly, smiling obsequiously, and with a gesture of his right hand, he said, "Commissioners, please follow me this way."

Bai Ling's gaze followed as Director Pang led the three into the Special Case Team before turning back.

Knowing Bai Zhi's character well, she couldn't help looking at Bai Zhi and whispered, "Bai, is there something else you're not comfortable saying?"

With no outsiders around, Bai Zhi no longer had to put on an act. She sighed softly and then drew Bai Ling into her arms, saying, "Bai Ling, you're still so perceptive."

Her gaze deepened, "Actually, the bureau hasn't sent any reinforcements."

"These three are the ones I requested as reinforcements from the bureau."

"Although they are all Fusers... one is a Lie Detector, one is a Barrierist, and one is a Tracker."

"None of them are from the Martial Combat faction. Their combat abilities are not strong."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"And the bureau's requirement is that we stand by without any reinforcement and lure the enemy."

Hearing Bai Zhi's words, Bai Ling gasped in surprise and asked, "Ah? Stand by without any reinforcements and lure the enemy?"

She exclaimed, "Isn't that using us as bait?"

Bai Zhi looked at her and nodded, "That's right. We're the bait."

She spoke slowly, "The bureau believes that if we leave, the Rejuvenation Society's people who are coming to attack us will have two choices."

"One is to cause retaliatory destruction in nearby cities to attract our attention. This would cause great harm to the public."

"The other is to hide on the spot and then regroup with other members of the Rejuvenation Society, and together head to Emerald City during the Flower Morning Festival to execute another plan."

"Neither of these outcomes is what the bureau wants to see."

"So, after understanding the intelligence, the bureau decided to have us stand by as bait."

"To attract their attention and wait for reinforcements from the bureau."

"If we have the strength to handle them ourselves, then all the better."

"After all... according to the information from Fang Ze, the enemy has at most four or five Fusers."

"Taking them down shouldn't be a problem for me..."

Bai Ling covered her mouth in astonishment.

Meanwhile, in the Greenwater Forest, where the Special Case Team was located, many figures had suddenly appeared out of nowhere....
