The old director chuckled and said, "Visible spears are easy to dodge; hidden arrows, hard to guard against. It's better to be cautious. Also, to protect your safety, we will modify the details when we announce this case. Do you understand what I mean?"
Ye Fan nodded in agreement. Modifications would likely involve omitting his name and proclaiming that the case was solved independently by the police. Essentially, this was to protect Ye Fan, because if his name were released, it would bring him endless trouble. Those affected by Huo Zilong's arrest would not let Ye Fan off the hook.
Although Ye Fan wasn't afraid, being constantly surrounded by a swarm of flies was still irritating.
"Thank you," Ye Fan said with a smile. Such protective measures could only keep the flies at bay, but the real tigers probably already knew about him by now. Nevertheless, the police's arrangement was indeed considerate and might be somewhat effective.
