Agent Chen and the others stood and walked out of the mansion with their faces reflecting a mixture of concern and resignation.
One of the agents glanced at Chen and asked, "What are we going to do now?"
Chen shook his head solemnly. "The Honorable Home Minister won't be pleased with this. We were specifically ordered to keep Evan in check and, if necessary, seize the project. But with the heavy security around him, we had no choice but to tread carefully."
The agents shared a look of mutual understanding, knowing they had to act with caution. Chen pulled out the pen drive from his pocket, examining it with a contemplative expression.
"It's not in our hands," Chen said quietly, his tone laced with frustration. "We're merely messengers in this situation. Let's depart early and hand it over to the Central Cybercrime officers. They'll determine the value of this piece and decide the next steps."
