Chapter 122 2. Go to the Red Light District (10,000 words for monthly pass!)
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi was full of question marks. She almost thought she had heard wrong.
She asked, puzzled, "Are you serious?"
Fang Ze looked at her strangely and said, "Of course."
As he spoke, he reached into his pocket, took out a card, and also produced a small, delicate pistol.
These two items had been found by the commissioners of the Security Bureau before they entered the interrogation room and set aside.
Bai Zhi had seen them but hadn't paid much attention. She assumed they were Fang Ze's own.
Now, seeing Fang Ze take them out, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "So, this is the extra money they added to bribe you?"
Fang Ze nodded, "Right."
"This card, reportedly, contains 200,000 Lini."
"And this small pistol,"
Speaking of which, Fang Ze picked up the gun, played with it for a bit, and said, "It's a special treasure called 'Marking Spear.' Director Pang took it from Cui Xuemin after his death."
"It can aim and shoot, but it has no bullets, so it can't kill. It just leaves a mark on the target."
"The mark lasts for a month. I can track their location in real time. I can also share the location with whomever I wish."

"Letting everyone track him together."
Seeing Fang Ze actually enthusiastically talking about how the Rejuvenation Society tried to bribe him and what good thing they had given him,
Bai Zhi felt completely overwhelmed.
She started to wonder if she was dreaming.
Was she really the Deputy Director of a Security Bureau branch?
Was the person in front of her really her subordinate?
Why would he dare to talk openly in front of her about being bribed?
Thinking this, she couldn't help but interrupt Fang Ze and asked, "Hold on, Fang Ze, you're not joking?"
Seeing Bai Zhi ask this, Fang Ze also put away his playful attitude.
Then he said seriously, "Yes. I'm not joking, Officer Bai Zhi."
"Last night, I officially became a member of the Rejuvenation Society again, becoming a double agent!"
"A double agent?"
Bai Zhi felt like her mind really wasn't adequate.
A spy is a spy, so how did it turn into a double agent?
Fang Ze looked at Bai Zhi, shook his head with a wry smile. His superior really was all about righteousness and not at all about brains....
So, he had no choice but to explain the subsequent events to Bai Zhi in full detail.
It turned out, after Director Pang had extended an olive branch to Fang Ze, Fang Ze initially wanted to flatly reject him and cleanly take him out.
But at the moment of action, he remembered that, with Director Pang's shrewdness, was it likely that he himself had come in person?
Fang Ze felt it was almost impossible.
So, killing Director Pang not only meant making a powerful enemy, but it would also be meaningless.
However, letting Director Pang go without taking action didn't sit well with him either.
Therefore, he had a sudden idea and agreed to Director Pang's recruitment.
But he set two conditions.
First: No empty promises, if they wanted Fang Ze to work for them, they had to show sincerity.
Director Pang obviously came prepared and immediately produced the card and the treasure as a down payment.
He promised that for every piece of new intelligence that Fang Ze provided to them, they would reward him accordingly, enhancing Fang Ze's resources.
Second: Director Pang had to make a sacrifice for him and give up his identity.
His reasoning was that he had not yet joined the Security Bureau and that the Security Bureau did not trust him that much.
Meeting Director Pang could have very well been noticed by the Security Bureau already.
Furthermore, having just joined the Security Bureau with a lower rank meant he would have access to less intelligence.
Thus, the act must be complete. For Fang Ze's development in the Security Bureau, no, for the Rejuvenation Society's infiltration of the Security Bureau, Fang Ze requested Director Pang to sacrifice himself.
In this way, Fang Ze could take the Director's body to the Security Bureau to claim credit.
In fact, Fang Ze's proposal was not simple; he wanted to test Director Pang.
If Director Pang did not agree, or if his face showed any sign of change, it was very likely that he had come in person.
Then Fang Ze could take a gamble, directly using the Law Prohibition to detain him.
If Director Pang agreed....
Then Fang Ze would save himself the effort of taking action.
Using "Great Righteousness" to force such an old fox to commit suicide pleased Fang Ze more than if he had done it himself.
So..... Director Pang just like that, before Fang Ze's eyes, laughingly took a knife and "committed suicide," and as he unburied his own bones, he also shared some secret intelligence with Fang Ze.
These were flaws and clues he had deliberately left over the years, sufficient to corroborate his identity as a traitor.
For example, in the secret compartment under the desk in his office, there were recently gathered classified documents.
For example, in his house, there was a ritual for transmitting document intelligence.
For example, the identities of several investigators under the Investigation Bureau's control and the identity of the one he controlled within the Special Case Team.
For example, although Dry Bones could regenerate from bones after killing someone, a special method could be used to determine his actual time of death.
This series of clues and evidence was enough to conclusively do him in.
After the explanations, Director Pang had dug out his bones, then handed the blood-stained dagger to Fang Ze, leaving a pool of flesh and blood behind, and, with a deep leap, jumped from the Investigation Bureau building....
Before jumping off the building, he did not forget to remind Fang Ze that upon arriving at Emerald City, he should first go to the Red Light District and find the contact to connect with the network. Then he would provide regular intelligence...n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Watching his entire performance, Fang Ze couldn't help but want to applaud: A ruthless man indeed.... truly a ruthless man...
