I Wanted To Be A Good Person Once - Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Bai Zhi Said, “There’s a Traitor in the Task Force” (2)

Then, the Commissioner introduced Fang Ze to Bai Ling.

Fang Ze saluted and greeted her.

The scene went still. Bai Zhi looked at Bai Ling and asked again, “Did you see anything this time?”

Bai Ling was completely at a loss. Her eyebrows were knitted together, and she pondered seriously for a long time. In the end, she could only look at Bai Zhi pitifully with her big watery eyes.

Bai Zhi smiled dotingly and shook her head. Then, she said seriously, “There really is a traitor in the task force.”

Bai Ling was confused.

She was full of question marks.

How had this conclusion been drawn from just a few scenes?? Seeing this, Bai Zhi gently knocked Bai Ling’s forehead and explained gently, “Can’t you tell that Fang Ze actually knew you long before this?”

Bai Ling looked surprised. “He already knew me? Why?”

The beautiful woman explained.

“You’re young and thin, but you carry a huge hammer. You’re an eye-catching existence wherever you go. Everyone will be surprised to see you for the first time.”

“However, he wasn’t surprised when he first met you. In fact, there wasn’t even curiosity in his eyes. He was very calm.”

“When Commissioner Pang introduced you, he had a very enthusiastic attitude towards your performance. This is proof of your good standing.”

“However, he was still not curious or surprised that you have such a high position at such a young age.”

“Even with his steady disposition, it’s not quite normal.”

“Of course, if this is the only clue, there is a real possibility of a misjudgment.”

“Thus, yesterday, after I had my suspicions, I deliberately gave the task force a holiday to test him.”

“Sure enough, when he heard about the holiday, the huge surprise in his eyes and the hesitation later couldn’t be concealed at all.”

“It doesn’t fit the persona we gave him. This isn’t the reaction that an agent with no family should have.”

“Besides, after he reported Agent Hanas the ‘traitor,’ the task force went on holiday. However, he didn’t come to us or Commissioner Pang to ask about the situation.”

“Furthermore, today, after he saw you, his body immediately went from a relaxed state to a tense state. Even though he hid it, there was still a moment of disappointment in his

eyes.”

“Let me ask you this. A normal agent would be happy and surprised to see an officer of the Security Bureau, right?”

“After all, it’s a wonderful chance to be able to be in close contact with an officer of the Security Bureau.”

“You never know, they might be chosen to join the Security Bureau and become an Awakened.”

“However… He didn’t.”

“If it’s just an unreasonable detail, it might be a coincidence. However, with so many details combined, I think it’s too far-fetched to call it a coincidence…”

“Thus, I judged that it’s likely that he already knew his identity and knew about you as a person in advance.”

“Furthermore, you never showed your face to him. How did he know about you?”

At this point, the beautiful woman gracefully walked to a side table. As she rummaged through a drawer, she said, “Therefore, as he said yesterday, it’s very likely that there is another member of the organization lurking in the task force. In other words… his accomplice.”

“Furthermore, that partner of his had hooked up with him long before we did and told him a lot of information.”

“Moreover, all he’s done in the past two days is muddy the waters and deliberately disrupt the direction of our investigation.”

“As for who this person is, it’s easy enough to tell just by listing the people who have seen

you.”

At this, the beautiful woman gracefully took a piece of paper and a pen from a drawer and began to scribble on it. “Commissioner Pang has seen you.”

“Cui Xuemin. His father is the Chief of the Security Bureau, so he knows about you.”

“Shan Hui.”

“Gao Shu.”

“And… Wang Hao.”

At this, the beautiful woman picked up the paper and thrust it at the girl. She said flatly, “Just investigate these five people.”

At this moment, Bai Ling was already looking at her with starry eyes. “Sister Bai, you’re too amazing…”

“However…”

She paused and said, “If we investigate like this, won’t we alert Fang Ze?”

Bai Zhi stretched lazily and smiled. “Little fool, have you forgotten? Our ultimate goal is to figure out the identity of this organization behind the scenes.”

“Now that we have a new target, Fang Ze… doesn’t really matter as much.”

At this, her tone changed. “Of course… You should still try to pay attention when you investigate so that he doesn’t notice anything unusual.”

“That’s because there’s another possibility. None of these five are members of the organization, and he learned this information through other means…”

“If that’s the case, then things are even more interesting…”

After saying that, her beautiful eyes looked at the image of Fang Ze on the surveillance screen. She stretched out her slender hand, picked up the wine glass on the table, shook it gently, and then raised her head to drink it in one gulp.

After swallowing a mouthful of scarlet liquid, her pale and beautiful face instantly became charming…

The next morning, Fang Ze got out of bed in high spirits.

Wang Hao had already gotten up and was reading the book Fang Ze had bought for him yesterday with a red face.

Fang Ze smiled at the upright guy and went to the bathroom to wash up.

While washing up, Fang Ze stole a glance at his shadow.

The shadow moved slightly, as if it was greeting him.

Fang Ze relaxed.

After washing up, Fang Ze had a meal in the canteen and then began to immerse himself in a busy day of “slacking off”…

To be honest, when he first transmigrated, Fang Ze wanted to rely on his spirit of working from 9am to 9pm, six days a week, from his previous life to involve the entire task force.

That was why he worked so hard to solve the case.

In the end…

As expected, only the Chinese did not lie to the Chinese…

Therefore, he felt that, in fact, slacking and lying flat were also excellent qualities. He could also flourish in another world… Furthermore, during the whole day of slacking, Fang Ze had found something else.

It wasn’t about the case. It was about the task force.

Fang Ze realized that his roommate, Wang Hao, had been secretly called to the second floor of the villa today. Other agents had also been called to the second floor of the villa.

Among them were senior agents, official agents, and even… the Commissioner.

Furthermore, everyone had a puzzled expression when they went upstairs. After going downstairs, they were even more puzzled.

Fang Ze was a little confused about what had happened.

He had a feeling that something had happened to the task force quietly, but he didn’t know what it was…

Moreover, while he was slacking off, his creditor, Bai Ling, had wandered up to him several times.

Besides, she was always asking strange questions.

For example.

“Would you like to touch my hammer?”

“Aren’t you curious about a teenager with a very high position?”.

“Wouldn’t you be surprised if you saw a person on the street carrying a sledgehammer?”

Fang Ze had originally wanted to ignore this little fool.

However, there was no choice. This girl said that answering a question cost 200 Rini.

And so Fang Ze told her the story of Gan Luo[1] being appointed as a minister at the age of 12 and Chen Ge[2] chasing the bride in red with a sledgehammer in his arms…

The little girl listened to Fang Ze’s story and ran away.

Then, half an hour later, she’d run back with the scent, clutching her tiny waist and accusing Fang Ze of being a liar. She said that Gan Luo and Chen Ge didn’t exist.

Furthermore, she used it as an excuse to offset the interest on Fang Ze’s “answer fee.”

Fang Ze spread his hands helplessly, feeling that this was an unexplained culture gap…

The day passed in a flash.

Soon, night fell again.
