Chapter 1060: Chapter 927: Experts Among the People

Song Lan’s mind was ablaze with countless thoughts.

The salary had been multiplied by 25, they only had to work two days a week, and they could even punch out as soon as they arrived, without their attendance being counted towards their performance assessment!

Although this made no difference to his current lifestyle, Song Lan was well aware that such practices were against the rules in the Law Enforcers department. It’s just that Lu Xiang had always turned a blind eye to it and hadn’t really clamped down on attendance.

But work at the Homeland Security Bureau was different, it was reasonable, compliant, legal, and even included in the labor agreement!

If he could let go of his prejudices, wasn’t this the job he had always dreamed of?

Moreover, once he had saved enough money, he could resign, and after achieving financial freedom, his life would no longer belong to work.

"Old Lu, do you know how the Brotherhood typically scams people from other countries into coming here?"

After washing the dishes, Song Lan sat down heavily on the sofa, elbows propped on his thighs, hands clasped together, supporting his chin. He had to admit that the offer from the Review Meeting this time was the most tempting yet, so much so that he had to resort to self-hypnosis tactics to barely cope.

"How are they scammed?"

"Let’s take District Seventeen as an example. Before you arrived here, District Seventeen was one of the cities with the highest unemployment rate in the United Government. It’s likely that students from professional schools face a high risk of unemployment after graduation. That’s why schools like Newster are so popular."

"I know, one of Newster’s advertisements is that as long as you graduate smoothly, you will definitely be employed by a company."

Lu Xiang nodded.

Before sending Anfiya and Elmon to Newster for school, she had thoroughly investigated Newster’s background.

Funded by a consortium of more than 35 companies, its purpose was to gather various talents for the companies. However, more than ninety percent of those enrolled in Newster were children of company families, with only a few children from ordinary families being admitted due to their exhibited talents.

For this small group of children, this iron rice bowl-like guarantee became their shackle instead.

Newster, the "aristocratic school," is currently one of the institutions with the worst bullying incidents under the United Government, with the ordinarily admitted children typically being the ones bullied.

Lacking connections, yet working harder than anyone else, this trait was mockingly referred to as a "bookworm" quality by many company heirs, who would not dare to speak out or resist even if they were bullied.

For the majority of families under the United Government, getting a job at a company was their lifelong dream, even if it meant "selling" themselves to the company when signing the contract.

Lu Xiang’s investigation into this background was out of concern that Anfiya, as a transfer student, might be bullied by her peers. Elmon’s special constitution, on the other hand, wasn’t a concern as no one but Anfiya could see him.

In the end, it turned out to be an unnecessary worry.

Anfiya was not only never bullied but also became a celebrity at school. Her current goal is to go to The First Region after graduation to enter politics and become a politician.

"Didn’t we catch a member of the Brotherhood scamming group before? They came to District Seventeen to conduct ’market research’. They would introduce jobs to those children who weren’t hired or couldn’t find work, with families in difficulty being their primary ’care’ focus. They would first give those children a little incentive, and then lure them to work in Oasis."

By the time the victims realized they had been duped, they were often already under the control of the Brotherhood.

Damn it!

That was Public Relations Officer Valerian’s opinion on the scammers.

The justice-filled Valerian, while escorting people down the stairs on a special operation, claimed to have accidentally bumped into the ringleader but actually gave him a stealthy punch in the stomach.

She considered this act one of her shining achievements and talked about it many times within her department.

"Valerian has always been like this, why are you so surprised?"

Seeing Lu Xiang cover her mouth in a shocked expression, Song Lan asked.

"What surprises me is that you actually went to hear the swindlers’ testimonies. Could I interview you and find out what drives you to work so hard?"

Interrogation was not a task for Public Relations, and for Song Lan to take an active interest in the work of colleagues from other departments was really quite extraordinary.

With her left hand clenched like a microphone, she extended it towards Song Lan’s mouth, making their conversation resemble that of a real news interview.

Song Lan’s vision darkened, "Old Lu, you weren’t like this before."

Recently, he felt Lu Xiang had become livelier.

For those who were steadfast in thinking of Lu Xiang as being a cold-faced female boss or an Iron-fisted Manager, this scene would utterly shatter all their illusions.

"Didn’t you tell me to be more positive, cheerful, and optimistic every day?"

Last time Song Lan had said that to her, he had recommended the cartoon "Tom and Jerry."

"Quick, Mr. Song Lan, please tell me what motivates you to work hard? Is it to give your lovely and beautiful wife a better life?"

They were only separated by a coffee table initially, but as she spoke, Lu Xiang stood up and leaned in, closing the distance between them.

Song Lan could see her curved eyelashes and her sparkling eyes.

"Stop it!"

The perceptive Song Lan sensed the impending crisis, "Old Void’s Sachila is almost out of control!"
