Chapter 12 - The Power of the Extraordinary Item, the Magazine!

The meeting started, but Fang Ze began to drift off while analyzing the information.

"That's strange… Is no one from the Security Bureau here?"

"Why didn't they come to such an important regular meeting?"

"Even if the beautiful noblewoman doesn't come, surely Executive Bai Ling, who gave Wang Hao the secret mission, or the person who communicated with Wang Hao should come, right?"

"Do they not care about the case itself? Or do they have other plans?"

"Or…"

Thinking of this, Fang Ze suddenly guessed something. As he pretended to listen attentively, he secretly looked around the meeting room.

Sure enough, he soon found a hidden camera in a corner northeast of the meeting room.

"So that's the case, as expected…"

"However, in that case, it looks like the Security Bureau won't be showing up today."

"Then, if I want to complete the plan, I'll have to be more radical…"

"I hope that the Magazine is effective enough…"

As Fang Ze pondered this, he suddenly felt the agent beside him touch his arm.

He snapped out of it and looked at the agent beside him. Then, he realized that the Commissioner was looking at him.

He coughed, then looked down and surreptitiously asked his "colleague" beside him, "What happened?"

The "colleague" said in a low voice, "Uncle Shan Hui just said what he thinks. The Commissioner is asking for your opinion."

Previously, in every regular meeting, when he encountered some questions related to the case, the Commissioner would ask Fang Ze for his opinion.

At that time, Fang Ze thought that it was because he was deeply trusted by the Commissioner.

Last night… He knew that it was actually because the Commissioner trusted him deeply.

He was simply a big fool.

Thus, when he'd just made the plan, he'd been prepared to stop being a fool. This was also the beginning of his plan…

With that in mind, Fang Ze's fingers, which had been in the folder since the meeting, gently folded over the first page of the Magazine.

Once the pages of the Magazine were turned, its ability took effect.

At that moment, Fang Ze felt as if a basin of cold water had fallen from the sky and drenched his head.

A chill began to spread quickly from his head to his entire body.

His brain was cold, as if he had lost all feelings. However, his thoughts were strangely clear.

He seemed to have no emotion left in him. There were no distractions and no emotional turmoil.

He carefully experienced this feeling.

Fang Ze recovered, then calmly followed the plan. He looked at the Commissioner and said without hesitation, "I'm sorry, Commissioner. I have no opinion."

As soon as Fang Ze said this, the Commissioner froze.

This was because he felt that Fang Ze seemed a little different today.

It was clearly a rejection, but it sounded especially sincere.

Therefore, he did not take it to heart. Instead, he nodded and said, "Alright, then…"

However, he was halfway through his sentence when something that surprised him even more happened. Fang Ze actually interrupted him and said, "Commissioner… Although I have no objections, I want to hear what Agent Han Kaiwei has to say."

In the previous meetings, Fang Ze had always been very dutiful.

He would simply answer what the Commissioner asked him.

There had never been a time when he had asked the Commissioner a question, or led the conversation to someone else.

This was the first time he had stepped out of line.

However, for some reason, no one felt that his question was out of place. They felt that his question… didn't seem wrong.

Therefore, as soon as he said this, everyone present, including the Commissioner, looked at Agent Han in unison.

At this moment, Han Kaiwei was dumbfounded. He had no idea what was going on.

At the regular meetings, he had always been invisible. He just lazed around and slacked off.

Now, with so many eyes suddenly on him, he couldn't help but panic.

However, he felt that he really should answer, so he thought hard about the clues that the other agents had just shared.

It was just that he really wasn't good at solving cases. Thus, in the end, after thinking about it for a minute, he waved his hand in shame and said, "I—I don't have any opinions."

Seeing Han Kaiwei's useless behavior, he probably couldn't figure out why Fang Ze had brought the topic to him. For a moment, the meeting room fell silent.

Everyone was thinking about the meaning of Fang Ze's actions.

At the same time, Fang Ze quietly observed the expressions of the agents. Seeing their contemplative expressions, he calmly made a judgment. The plan had gone smoothly…

In the end, it was the Commissioner who broke the atmosphere in the meeting room.

Seeing that everyone was deep in thought, he chuckled and tapped his fingers lightly on the table. Then, he said, "Alright. Since neither Agent Fang Ze nor Agent Han Kaiwei has any ideas, let's go next."

With that, he turned to the next agent. "Tell me what you've learned this week, Senior Agent Cui Xuemin."

Agent Cui snapped out of her daze at the Commissioner's question. Then, she nodded gently and began to slowly tell him what she had discovered and deduced this week.

Agent Cui finished, followed by Han Kaiwei. Wang Hao was next, and all the agents went down in turn.

As in the beginning, every time the agents shared their findings, the Commissioner asked for Fang Ze's opinion.

Under the 'Sage' buff, Fang Ze's attitude was the same as before. He had no opinions.

If Fang Ze showed this attitude after the first agent finished sharing, with the influence of the Magazine, no one would care.

However, when Fang Ze showed this attitude to every agent, everyone gradually felt that something was wrong.

Furthermore, there was something else that felt even more wrong to everyone.

Every time Fang Ze finished saying that he had no opinions, he would look at Han Kaiwei and ask, "However, I want to ask Agent Han, do you have any opinions?"

Han Kaiwei simply wanted to curse now!

He was just a hooligan. He could abuse his power normally, but how could he solve a case?! They would be lucky if he didn't cause trouble!

He was tempted not to answer, but somehow, as soon as he saw Fang Ze's cold face, he felt he needed to.

Therefore, each time, he would think hard and finally force out an answer that said, "I… have no opinions either."

This made each of Fang Ze's inquiries seem like a slap in the face to Han Kaiwei. Furthermore, it was a series of slaps from the left to the right in front of everyone.

At first, he managed to hold on.

However, when Fang Ze did this again and again, he was forced to think about it. In the end, he said, "I don't know," "I don't understand," and "I don't comprehend." He always felt that the way his colleagues in the meeting room looked at him was filled with only one word — trash.

He felt his face burning. He was going crazy.

He simply had no idea what Fang Ze was up to.

Was Fang Ze messing with him?

But what could this do to him?

Everyone knew that Han Kaiwei was a scumbag, right?

Throughout the meeting, the only thing that made Han Kaiwei feel a little better was that when it was his turn to talk about his information, Fang Ze still said, "No opinions." He didn't specifically pick out a bunch of flaws and continue to insult him.

However, after heaving a sigh of relief, Agent Han felt extremely aggrieved. What the hell was going on!

Had he, an agent, been forced by a criminal to this extent?

Who was the criminal and who was the agent?!

Why did this happen!

Furthermore, that wasn't the end of it.

Things came to a head when it was Fang Ze's turn to share information.

In the face of the Commissioner's question, Fang Ze sat upright in his chair and said expressionlessly, "I'm sorry, Commissioner. I don't want to share my clues and information."

This time, even under the influence of the Magazine, everyone understood that Fang Ze was not cooperating today.

Everyone knew Fang Ze's identity.

Therefore, for a moment, the meeting room was filled with hidden waves. Even though no one spoke, the looks they exchanged revealed their suspicion and nervousness.

At this moment, the Commissioner could no longer sit still.

He narrowed his eyes and looked Fang Ze up and down carefully. Then, he forced a fake smile.

After that, he stood up with his big belly and waved at Fang Ze. He said with a smile, "Come, Fang Ze, let's come out and talk."

He left everyone else in the meeting room and headed straight for the door.

Fang Ze wasn't surprised. Or rather, perhaps everything was going according to plan.

He stood up straight, then followed the Commissioner out of the meeting room.

Behind them, dark waves surged in the meeting room. Many agents exchanged glances, and the place where their gazes met the most was in Han Kaiwei's direction.

Clearly, although no one knew what had happened, everyone could tell what Fang Ze meant by targeting Han Kaiwei…

A criminal versus an agent?

This was too odd, right?

What was even stranger was that when they "asked" themselves, everyone inexplicably felt that… They wanted to support Fang Ze more.
