Once, I wanted to be a good person

On the way to the Security Bureau, Fang Ze and the Flower God were still whispering to each other.

Originally, Fang Ze had wanted to leave the Flower God at home, thinking she might prefer to be alone due to safety concerns, but to his surprise, the Flower God refused this suggestion.

She insisted that "Fang Ze needed her help" and managed to get Fang Ze to bring her along.

At first, Fang Ze didn't quite understand, but it didn't take him long to guess that she probably had three purposes for doing so.

The first was that she hadn't absorbed his energy last night, so she wanted to take the opportunity to siphon some off him while they were together today.

The second was that she wanted to understand more about his identity and situation, which would make it easier for her to make requests of him later on.

The third was likely that she wanted to have a look at the Real World, to better prepare herself for future activities here.

Although Fang Ze guessed her intentions, he didn't expose them, and just like that, he brought her directly to the Security Bureau.

Since the Flower God's puppets had been deeply embedded in Emerald City for some time, she had a relatively good understanding of various official departments.

Thus, seeing Fang Ze enter the Security Bureau really did startle the Flower God.

Using Divine Thought, she communicated with Fang Ze, "You work in the Security Bureau?"

Fang Ze smiled and said softly, "Yes."

The Flower God fell silent within her petals for a while, recalling Fang Ze's actions over the past few days, and suddenly found it all to make perfect sense.

After all, she already knew that Fang Ze was an Awakener, and from Fang Ze's conversation with Bai Zhi, she had deduced that Fang Ze was an official.

And the Security Bureau was clearly the official institution with the most Awakeners.

Thinking this, she gradually calmed down.

She felt that she shouldn't "discriminate" against her Believer's profession. As long as he wasn't a superior officer then....

"Good morning, Director."

"Director."

"Director, good morning."

Listening to the unending greetings around her Believer, the Flower God was dumbfounded in her petals once again.

'Director?!'

'What the hell! My Believer is the Director of the Security Bureau?'

The turn this story had taken was truly something the Flower God had not anticipated.

What does the Security Bureau do?

They specialize in combating Awakener crimes and dealing with all Extraordinary Power incidents!

And what is she?

A Demigod! Plus, she had just planned the most significant Extraordinary Power incident in Emerald City in the last fifty years.

And now, when seeking help, she ended up with the Director of the Security Bureau?

At that moment, the Flower God truly felt like a lamb walking into a tiger's den.

She couldn't help but once again place her hand on her escape Divine Skills, ready to flee at the first sign of trouble.

Meanwhile, Fang Ze, who had just finished greeting the numerous Commissioners, seemed to have sensed her mood and said discreetly, "Your Highness the Flower God, do not mind my identity."

"Whether I am the Director of the Security Bureau or a Beggar, I am your follower."

"Moreover, my achievements today are all thanks to you."

"As a child, I saw your solo dance in the skies above Emerald City and was deeply fascinated by you. In order to figure out your identity and find you, I rigorously trained every day, and as I grew up, I even joined the Security Bureau to climb the ranks!"

"During my time in the Security Bureau, it was your strength that gave me the courage to persist through the nights."

"If it weren't for you, I would never have become the Director of the Security Bureau."

Flower God: .....

Although Fang Ze's words were touching and sounded very sincere, the Flower God still felt a bit scared.

It was like she had sent a spy to infiltrate a rival Demigod's domain, only to find out years later that the spy had successfully replaced the Demigod and become the new Demigod themselves!

So... to keep herself from starting to curse uncontrollably, she chose to mute herself, opting to quietly observe. If things went south, she'd make her escape.

Amidst the greetings from everyone, Fang Ze made his way back to his Director's office.

Sitting in the Director's office, Fang Ze was dealing with the backlog of official business from the past two days while patiently awaiting Huo Lin's return.

According to his estimate, Huo Lin should be back soon. All he needed to do was to sweet-talk Huo Lin, and then he could carry out his rescue plan.

As expected, Fang Ze's prediction was spot-on. Within half an hour, the phone on his desk began to ring.

Picking up the phone, he heard Yu Shuishui's voice, "Director Fang, the team leader has returned. He asks for you."

Upon hearing Yu Shuishui's words, Fang Ze quickly replied with a "Hmm" and said, "I'll be right there." Then he hung up the phone and left the Security Bureau.

Two minutes after his departure, Little You came out from the secretarial office, a file in hand, hastily making her way to Fang Ze's office.

Reaching the door to Fang Ze's office, she knocked.

There was no response from inside.

She knocked again. Still, there was no response from within.

Little You, puzzled, pushed open the door and looked around. "Huh? Did the Director step out?"

As she spoke, she entered, placed the file she was holding onto Fang Ze's desk, and used a book to weigh down one corner to prevent the papers from being blown away.

After that, she left the Director's office and continued with her day's tasks.

A gentle breeze wafted into the office, lifting the corner of the file...

On that file was clearly written:
