First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

...

As always, if it’s within the rules, find Secretary Qiu. If it’s outside the rules, find Elder Shui.

The Third Circle and Second Circle had specialized departments connecting them, and this department was kept completely separate from any other department.

It was directly under higher authority, with no one having the right to privately requisition it.

But Elder Shui was different. He existed outside the rules.

A single phone call was made.

The name and information were given.

Elder Shui quickly sent a coordination message down to the Third Circle, to Yunhai.

Of course.

It wasn’t an order.

They were all on the same side. Lu Ding had also come out of Yunhai. Orders or not, that wasn’t the point.

They were polite, handled things together—this was called coordination.

Third Circle, Yunhai.

After Lu Ding and his team had left, someone else had taken up Yunhai’s banner. But their presence still felt like a legend, deeply influencing all of Yunhai.

As Elder Shui’s coordination came down, Chu Gexiao, the Bureau Chief of Yunhai 749, immediately mobilized every available resource in the bureau.

Soon.

Based on the information, they found Su Yun in Yunhai, including around Yunhai—all young people who had gone missing at the appropriate age.

Among them, Su Yun, who hadn’t changed his name, stood out conspicuously.

Chu Gexiao even personally went to Su Yun’s home.

He knocked on the door.

A haggard woman with graying hair, looking over sixty, opened the door.

But in reality, Chu Gexiao knew from reviewing the files that this woman before him was only in her forties.

The moment the woman opened the door, she didn’t curiously size up Chu Gexiao, the stranger.

She only murmured, clearly not in her right mind: “Have you seen my son?”

“My son disappeared… he was very well-behaved… his name is Su Yun… he should be twenty-three now… he used to study at Yunhai University…”

The woman kept muttering information about Su Yun.

Through the crack in the door, Chu Gexiao’s gaze fell on the missing person posters scattered all over the floor inside.

Suddenly.

He felt something and turned his head.

The elevator door opened.

A man with graying hair, looking exceptionally worn out, stepped out.

He didn’t even notice Chu Gexiao standing at his own front door at first.

Only after hearing his wife’s voice did the man slowly raise his head and see the stranger standing there.

His emotional fluctuations were minimal as he asked, “Hello, who are you looking for?”

Chu Gexiao flashed his credentials: “Hello, Mr. Su Fu. I’m Chu Gexiao from the National Security department. I’m here to ask you some information about Su Yun.”

The moment the words “National Security” were spoken.

A clear light appeared in the man’s eyes.

Although they had already reported to the enforcers and registered missing person notices, among other things.

Those measures couldn’t compare to National Security, of course.

The man quickly welcomed Chu Gexiao into the house.

After calming down his mentally unstable wife, he poured Chu Gexiao a glass of water, and asked with a mix of anticipation and nervousness: “Com… comrade… is there news about my son?”

Chu Gexiao, although he was the Bureau Chief of Yunhai 749, wasn’t an aloof man.

He also carried the softness that came with being human.

When he saw that what had once been a prosperous family was now in decline, that what had been a happy and complete family was now shattered.

When he saw the couple, in their forties, looking so aged, their spirit broken, running around for their missing son.

Chu Gexiao chose to tell a white lie: “We have a little lead on Su Yun, but it’s too vague, so I came to confirm some details.”

Hearing these words.

The woman, who had just calmed down, rushed out of the room instantly.

“Did… did you find my son? Where is he? Please tell me where he is, okay? I miss him so much, Mom misses him so much…”

“I made his favorite dumplings. I also braised a lot of pig trotters that he loves…”

The woman was emotionally overwhelmed, and within moments, she was crying uncontrollably.

Chu Gexiao comforted the woman’s emotions and began to discuss details with Su Yun’s father, Su Fu. He recorded the conversation and supplemented the files.

Soon.

New files, along with videos, were sent to the Second Circle, landing in Lu Ding’s hands.

At this time.

The Second Circle.

Fengkou City.

The investigators brought by Lu Ding had long since assembled and were fully prepared.

Once the files and videos were in hand.

Lu Ding called Yan Feifan over and they watched it together.

The two of them didn’t seem as happy as expected.

Instead, there was only silence.

Until Yan Feifan broke the silence: “Brother Lu, how are we going to handle this Su Yun?”

If it had been before, Su Yun would have been dead for sure.

But now, seeing the state of his parents.

Lu Ding thought for a moment: “If it was a crossing-over, from the Third Circle to the Second Circle, if this process wasn’t what he wanted, if his attitude and stance aren’t problematic, if the evil he did…”

Actually, Lu Ding himself couldn’t even continue.

He admitted that the moment he saw Su Yun’s parents, his heart had softened.

But the preconditions he listed were too many. Moreover, Su Yun had helped the Baoji Kingdom carry out numerous cruel human experiments.

He had to die!

Regardless of whether it was intentional or unintentional, the facts were the facts.

For minor consequences, one could say ignorance is an excuse, but with consequences like these, there was no excuse or reason to change them.

Lu Ding paused and changed his words: “Let’s go check it out first.”

He started walking.

As he stepped out of Fengkou City 749.

Looking at the investigators who had been waiting for him for a long time.

Lu Ding stood straight and said only two words: “Move out!”

The army pressed toward Overcast Mountain, launching a night raid on Black Phoenix Gathering.

At this moment, Black Phoenix Gathering was still brightly lit as day, bustling with people, possessing a liveliness that didn’t belong in the deep mountains.

Inside Su Yun’s small courtyard.

Nishang was angrily telling Su Yun about Yu Ci and Ling Tian dying at Lu Ding’s hands.

Hearing the details, Su Yun trembled with rage.

He couldn’t believe that such a cute, beautiful, and understanding girl could die at Lu Ding’s hands in just one day.

Die in the prime of her youth.

Ling Tian, that man who was both his subordinate and his friend, had yet to realize his ambition, had yet to fight back into the depths of Overcast Mountain and reclaim the dignity he had lost long ago.

Yet he died halfway through his life’s journey.

His life cut short by Lu Ding.

Thinking of these things, Su Yun clenched his fists and slammed them heavily onto the stone table.

“LU DING!!!”

“I WILL DEFINITELY KILL YOU!!!”

His voice rang out.

Someone responded: “Feel angry? Feel powerless?”

“So when you aided and abetted evil, helping the Baoji Kingdom create human-demon hybrids, did you know that most of their test subjects were Great Han citizens from near Black Phoenix Gathering? Their families are just as angry as you.”

The moment the voice appeared.

Nishang and Su Yun both turned to look in the direction of the voice.

They saw two figures standing on top of the courtyard wall.

The ones who had arrived were none other than Lu Ding and Yan Feifan.
