Chapter 162 'Punishment' Decision?
Seeing Zuo Qing's questioning gaze, Li Jie smiled calmly and pointed to Baili Xin, who was nailed to the wall.
It means I've taken care of everything you asked me to do.
Zuo Qing paused for a moment, then walked forward on his own. After checking the auras of the Zodiac and the members of Team 010, he...
I breathed a sigh of relief...
Thankfully... he's still alive...
It seems the only ones who died were the chairman of the Baili Group and Baili Jing, who attempted to impersonate Baili Tuming...
He first gave Li Jie a reproachful look, then asked a question.
"Couldn't you have kept it a little quieter? I thought you'd killed them all..."
Ok?
Upon hearing Zuo Qing's voice, the six children, led by Lin Qiye, were all stunned...
Is this something the Left Deputy Commander should say?
Doesn't that sound like a villain?
Only Li Jie smiled slightly, pointed to the mutilated zodiac signs on the ground, and spoke.
"I didn't do anything to these people. The bastard who was nailed to the wall pulled out a skull, sang a few lines, and then they were like this."
"As for Squad 010, I did strike them, but I didn't kill them. They should all be alive."
"only......."
"They have strayed far from the original intentions of the Night's Watch..."
Zuo Qing sighed softly, nodded, and then spoke to Li Jie.
"Alright, I will relay their situation to Ye Fan. They will likely spend the rest of their lives in the fasting center..."
This really left Lin Qiye and the others completely bewildered...
It seems... these two planned this all along...
Seeing their questioning looks, Zuo Qing pointed at the six little ones behind her who were frantically speculating, and asked Li Jie.
"You didn't tell them?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jie shook his head.
Just kidding, how could I possibly say something so absurd? No one would believe me anyway...
"Fine, I'll explain it to them."
As he spoke, Zuo Qing stepped over Li Jie and came to stand in front of Lin Qiye and the others.
Apart from Jialan, who had never met the head of the Special Operations Division before, everyone else present had at least a brief encounter with Zuo Qing.
"It seems you've had another opportunity while carrying out your mission, and now it appears you've met one of the conditions for the formation of a special team."
Upon hearing his words, Jialan unconsciously tugged at Lin Qiye's sleeve.
Feeling the pull from behind, Lin Qiye turned his head and explained softly.
"This is the head of the Special Operations Division, which means he is our and Brother Li's direct superior."
Upon hearing this, Jialan nodded as if he suddenly understood, and then stood obediently to the side without making a sound.
"We don't have much time, let's get down to business first."
As he spoke, he took out a document from his pocket and handed it to Lin Qiye.
“These are the evidence of Baili Xin’s crimes; you can take a look.”
Upon hearing the words "evidence of guilt," the five little ones behind Lin Qiye couldn't help but move closer to him, their eyes glancing at the document in his hand.
Unauthorized alteration of confidential documents...
Bribery...murder...
.........
The short A4 sheet of paper contained more than ten charges against Baili Xin that could lead to a life sentence.
Seeing their shocked looks, Zuo Qing also spoke up.
"Actually, this is the result of the search over the past few days. Baili Xin's reach is longer than we imagined."
"Actually, we have to thank Li Jie for this. If he hadn't reminded us that there might be a problem with the files, we might still be in the dark..."
Brother Li?
Upon hearing this, the six children all raised their heads and looked at the white-haired boy who was standing there in a daze with his arms crossed.
“After returning from the North, Li Jie checked Baili Tuming’s file, but the one stored in the Special Operations Department was ‘lost’.”
"Following this lead, the intelligence agency uncovered a massive scandal..."
"The confidential files of the Night Watchmen, especially the reserve special squad members, have been switched by Bailishin..."
"Therefore, Ye Fan, in his capacity as the Supreme Commander of the Great Xia Night Watch, gave Li Jie a secret mission."
"That's someone who came to deal with the chaos in the Baili family."
After saying that... the six little ones looked as if they had heard something unbelievable...
He stared wide-eyed at Zuo Qing, who remained completely calm.
After a moment of silence, Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment before finally asking.
"Director Zuo... is this really something we can discuss openly?"
"Of course not. Therefore, I have decided to punish you."
"..." Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye couldn't help but roll his eyes. This Director Zuo's level of shamelessness seemed to be quite high...
............
Finally, Zuo Qing first placed the seven little ones who had made a 'mistake' at the original 010 team's base for 'imprisonment'.
It was called imprisonment, but in reality, it just meant making them wait in the villa that Fatty had given to Squad 010 for the so-called 'punishment' decision.
The former members of Squad 010, who were accused of embezzlement and bribery, have already been taken back to Night's Watch headquarters by the Inspectorate for trial.
After settling Lin Qiye and the others in, Zuo Qing pulled Li Jie outside the villa.
"You handled this situation quite well, preventing further panic and indirectly ensuring the integrity of the Baili Group."
"So, your 'punishment' shouldn't be too severe. The 'Star' medal from last time should be enough. I will tell Ye Fan everything that happened here."
Upon hearing this, Li Jie nodded slightly without making any other comment.
Due to time constraints, Zuo Qing did not have much interaction with Li Jie. He simply told Li Jie to keep an eye on them before turning into a blue light and disappearing from Li Jie's sight.
.........
That night, Li Jie walked out of his room and went up the spiral staircase to the rooftop.
Lin Qiye and Baili Pangpang were sitting together on the edge of the fence, staring blankly at the endless night sky.
Seeing this, Li Jie's lips curled slightly, and he asked.
"Can't sleep? Having a secret rendezvous on the rooftop in the middle of the night?"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, the two of them involuntarily shuddered, then turned to look at Li Jie, who had walked up to them.
"I can't help it, I'm worried about that fatso. What happened today was too much of a shock for him, I'm afraid he might do something rash." Lin Qiye smiled slightly and teased the person next to him.
"Who would be so foolish... I'm just afraid of dragging you all down with me..."
Baili Pangpang sighed softly.
"That scumbag was, after all, a high-ranking member of the Night's Watch, and he's dead just like that. I doubt the punishment from headquarters will be lenient..."
"Oh, is that what you're worried about..."
Upon hearing this, Li Jie began to explain.
"If that's really the reason, then you're probably worrying for nothing."
