Chapter 660: Chapter 288 Public Security Zero Class_2 Chapter 660: Chapter 288 Public Security Zero Class_2 Duan Hongye spat on the ground again and said disdainfully, “You people just think too much, always considering this and that, only to let opportunities slip away. How can you know if something won't work if you don't try it? With Yan Fei holding Dream Technology and a fortune worth billions, seizing his money would solve all the financial troubles of the state!”

Yu Xiaozhou responded, “Dream Technology is Yan Fei's personal property, protected by the law of the state; no one has the right to seize it.”

Duan Hongye began to sneer and said, “That's why I say Yan Fei's ideological awareness is terribly low, and he needs me to remind him. Not just Dream Island and Dream Technology, but also the cure for the two incurable diseases and the super high-energy battery technology–everything must be handed over to the state without conditions. If he fails to do this, I'll make sure he understands the fate that awaits a selfish person.”

Yu Xiaozhou had only heard about the dirty and irresponsible Duan Hongye from the team leader and had never personally encountered him. To his shock, the first time he met this personality of Duan Hongye, he was taken aback by his extremism. If they followed Duan Hongye's suggestions and handed over everything beneficial to the state, how would that be any different from China before the Reform and Opening up? History had already proven that approach wrong.

Yu Xiaozhou immediately thought of the serious consequences and said, “Duan Hongye, don't do anything rash! The United Fleet is about to attack Dream Island, and if you sabotage it from the inside, leading to its fall, you would become a sinner to our nation for eternity.”

With a chilling tone, Duan Hongye said, “Originally, I planned to immediately go to where Yan Fei lives, capture him, and force him to hand over everything. However, considering he is about to face a formidable attack, I refrained. This also shows that Yan Fei is incapable of ensuring the safety of Dream Island in his hands. Only under the protection of the state can Dream Island be truly secure.”

To Yu Xiaozhou, the current Duan Hongye felt utterly alien. The Duan Hongye from before was not only clean and responsible but also strategic. However, this Duan Hongye was the epitome of extremism, selfishness, and narrow-mindedness. Yu Xiaozhou couldn't fathom what could have led to such a radical split in personality, with such drastic differences between them.

Yu Xiaozhou continued in a last-ditch effort, “Your visit to Dream Island must be a rogue operation, right? You don't have authorization from the team leader…”

Duan Hongye's expression changed and with a cold snort, a thunderclap sounded in Yu Xiaozhou's ears before he was blasted into unconsciousness. As he faded out, Yu Xiaozhou's mind was filled with worry–Yan Fei now had to not only face the Tri-nation United Fleet head-on but also be wary of the threat posed by Duan Hongye, an unpredictable time bomb. Yu Xiaozhou wondered how Yan Fei would manage to survive this peril. Moreover, this personality of Duan Hongye seemed to have become much more formidable…

In Tokyo, Japan, within the Metropolitan Police Department building, a newly-hired policeman named Haruma Yamada was getting accustomed to the environment under the guidance of a colleague–the middle-aged, always complaining Goro Oizumi.

Under Oizumi's guidance, Haruma Yamada was getting familiar with his future workplace. It didn't take long for Oizumi to finish introducing the above-ground structure before leading him to the third basement level of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Although located three levels underground, some departments still operated from there. The work environment, however, was quite poor–devoid of sunlight and with somewhat murky air. It was clear that departments working here weren't highly valued by the higher-ups and had been relegated to the bowels of the building.

The two men walked through the third basement level until they reached a shabby office area. Oizumi whispered, “This is the workplace of Public Security Section 5. They're supposedly in charge of solving bizarre cases, but I've never heard of them successfully closing any.”

Haruma Yamada glanced around the office area and asked in a low voice, “Senpai, why is there only a white-haired old man here? Is he the cleaner?”

Goro Koizumi quickly covered Haruma Yamada's mouth and said, “Idiot, he's not a cleaner; he's the boss of Public Security Section 5. Although he doesn't have many subordinates, his rank is much higher than ours, so don't offend him carelessly.”

Haruma Yamada exclaimed, “But he looks at least seventy years old, doesn't he? Why is he still working?”

Goro Koizumi replied, “He just looks old; he's not even sixty yet! Despite looking like that, he's quite the ladies' man–several of the most beautiful women in our building like to visit him and often invite him out to dinner.”

Perhaps the two were speaking too loudly because the old man of Public Security Section 5 started looking their way, prompting both men to bolt from the area and head to the fourth floor below. However, this was merely a room for filing documents. After introducing the document management staff to Haruma Yamada, the two headed towards the elevator.

Just then, Haruma Yamada suddenly pointed at a door nearby and asked, “Senpai, is this also an office for the Metropolitan Police Department?”
