Chapter 21: Scientists Must Be Reasonable

"Master... cares about me?"

Zero didn't know much about why the mobile fortress suddenly went out. But now, he decided to say seriously-

"Of course you care. No matter how powerful a scientist is, you need an outstanding assistant. Although you may be the most incompetent assistant I have ever met in my life. But no matter what, you are also my assistant. I don't care who you care about?"

"Master... cares about me..."

The girl raised her hand and put it down.

The dark green that had disappeared in her pupils has now emerged again.

Seeing that the weapon finally cooled down, Zero couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand and patted her delicate shoulder.

"Let's go and find the director. Then, apologize to him and compensate for the losses. How about it?"

"…………………………Um."

The girl nodded, and her slightly dull expression seemed to show some different colors. Unfortunately, Zero could never notice this extremely subtle change. However, the girl didn't care, but directly pinched her fists and continued to walk in front of Zero.

Do those remaining special police dare to stop them?

With more than 100 people and less than five people left, the only thing they can do now seems to be holding guns and keep retreating.

The communication equipment on their bodies had been damaged and could not even ask for support. They could only keep retreating, and then looked at the incredible couple and walked into the main office building.

"So, is that director in the director's office now?"

Entering the lobby of the main building, Zero looked at the office staff who were escaping from all around him and said.

The girl raised her head, looked at the ceiling, and said, "The data check...the verification was completed. There was no one in the director's office. But in the women's restroom on the sixth floor, a man with a 97% similarity to the director's appearance was found."

Zero put his glasses on his back, smiled slightly, and said, "Okay, go there."

Under the "escort" of the special police team members, there were chaos along the way, and all kinds of screams were heard running around. Before we could reach the third floor, the offices on both sides were already locked, and there was no one else in the corridor except these special police team members who were barely supporting them.

Finally... in front of the women's bathroom.

The girl raised her hand and punched open the locked door. Ten seconds later, she dragged an old man who was trembling and pooping all over, and walked out of it in front of Zero. She threw it casually and threw it in front of Zero.

"Hey, Director Chen of the Public Security Bureau, why are you doing this? Today is your director's reception day. Is it necessary to go to the women's bathroom to receive it?"

Zero simply squatted down and looked at the director. Director Chen, whose hair was sparse and trembled after looking at the girl, shivered timidly, and his eyes were constantly looking at the five remaining special police officers around him.

"Hey, Director Chen, are you talking?"

Zero asked again. The director of the Public Security Bureau responded quickly and raised his head tremblingly.

"Well, it's great. Actually... I want to complain too. It's not good for your subordinates to deal with the facts. I also know that this kind of government agency is a bit bloated and overly overdoing things. But... forget it, everyone has difficulties, and there is no need to complain to others if they don't have a smooth life."

The director trembled with the fat on his chin and didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, he finally put on a sentence: "Yes...yes...you...you...you have a lot of... indeed... shouldn't...be like us..."

"Do you think so too? That's great, Director Chen, you are indeed a good person."

Zero smiled and continued, "Then, it was my mistake. I will compensate for the losses caused today. As for the medical expenses for the injured person, I will also bear it."

"No, no! This...this...no hassle..."

"No worries? How can this happen? If you hurt someone, you have to pay for medical expenses, and if you smash things, you have to compensate for losses. Is this the law? Are you right?"

Faced with Zero's seriousness, the director trembled even more and didn't dare to say a word.

Zero smiled and said, "It's great. Then, we can discuss the serious matters. Look, we have wasted so much time for this serious matter. I just want to ask, how is the specific handling of Wang Peng, who was arrested last week?"

"Wang...Wang Peng?" The director's eyes flashed again, and he said, "Oh! The one who 's slander'?!"

"You know? That's great. If it's really a crime of defamation, is there any evidence? If not, why not release it?"

The fatty meat on the corner of the director's mouth twitched again, his eyes turned and he said, "Oh! This... this case... specific... I... I... I'm not... very clear! But... please rest assured! I... I will urge my subordinates to close the case as soon as possible! I will... release your friend... immediately!"

The ripples in the girl's eyes shook a little, and she took a step forward. But Zero immediately stopped him, smiled slightly, pretending that nothing had happened, and continued, "It's not necessary. If you are really guilty, then you'll be detained. If you are innocent, then you'll be released. We also need to be ruled. I'm not talking about love, but I'm just impatient to wait, and I want to urge you to make things happen faster."

“Yes…yes…”

"So now, since you have what Director Chen said, I feel relieved. My name is Yuanling, and I am a third-year student at Hengsha Institute of Technology. If you have any news, please contact me in time. Then, I will thank you first."

The director nodded timidly again, looked at the girl beside him with a terrified look, and didn't dare to say a word. After receiving such a promise, Zero smiled and nodded with satisfaction. Then he stood up and took the girl away from the side door of the Public Security Bureau, and embarked on the journey home.

————————————————————————————————————————

Zero was very happy along the way.

He kept smiling, even humming songs while sitting in the car.

However, the girl beside her had a dull face, and her thin and curved eyebrows felt a little frowning.

“………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Tell me." Zero nodded generously.

"Then... I said it. In fact, when the director said anything, I did not detect that he was in the truth. His emotional fluctuations were always very powerful. You can imagine that every word he said was a lie."

The smile on Zero's face disappeared and turned into coldness again. He leaned against the table and chair, with his eyes closed.

“……………………………………”

"I know, he's lying."

After a long time, Zero finally gave the answer. He gently pressed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said-
Chapter completed!
