Feng Yi had considered the possibility that the other person could be an insider, but he hadn't expected their self-perception to be like this.
A substitute?
Is it necessary?
Can you even manage that?
Perhaps noticing the confusion in Feng Yi's eyes, Ren explained:
"With your identity, there may be times when you need to appear in two places at once, and a perfect alibi is necessary.
"In the age of information, with omnipresent surveillance, we need to be cautious, but it can also be used to our advantage."
Feng Yi did not comment on this statement but asked, "Do you know how much danger you would face as my substitute?"
Ren's eyes sparkled with excitement: "Yes! Please believe me, I am truly very interested in this job! I will do my utmost, make the greatest effort!"
