That night, in the office of the regional director of the coastal energy subsidiary.
A middle-aged man in his forties sat anxiously in front of his desk. It had been an indeterminable time before the mobile phone on the table finally rang.
The man almost lunged for the phone, answering the call the moment it came through.
"Our people have been captured."
Upon hearing the voice on the other end of the call, the man immediately began to report the recent events in District 17.
The last they had heard from their operatives, they were planning to replace the head of the Law Enforcers department in District 17 with one of their own, turning this key position to their advantage. His office was filled with information on Lu Xiang, and he was always ready to discard his current identity and take Lu Xiang's place.
In District 17, the head of the Law Enforcers department was far more useful than a regional director of an energy company.
