Chapter 985: Chapter 788, Related to the Crown Prince (one update today). Chapter 985: Chapter 788, Related to the Crown Prince (one update today). Skeleton hit someone!

Hearing this, the crowd gathered around also appeared angry.

You can't just hit people without any reason!

Li Yahong's eyes slightly narrowed as she glanced at the Skeleton who had picked up the notebook and resumed writing.

She said, “Take the injured to get treated, and you, follow me to the office and explain the situation.”

The man who had just shouted about the Skeleton hitting someone faltered, glanced at Gao Rong, his expression somewhat tense.

He added, “Send the injured to recover first, follow me to the office to understand the situation.”

Gao Rong, without saying much, told the onlookers, “Don't just stand there; go back to your own tasks.”

The injured were taken away, and the others returned to their office seats.

Li Yahong, Gao Rong, and several key members from both bases walked into an office nearby.

The brought-in man stood to one side, silent.

Li Yahong looked at him and directly asked, “Tell me how the fight started.”

The man's eyes darted about, then he said, “When we were coming back to our seats after fetching water, we happened to see this Skeleton writing something. Li Xiang went over to look at the contents, and the Skeleton suddenly punched him, knocking him out cold.”

Eyebrows were raised by a few in the room.

Skeletons were commanded not to attack survivors.

Especially those from Little East Auto Repair who had been in contact with Skeletons the longest; there had never been any issues.

Nor did they believe it would lose control without reason.

Li Yahong asked seriously, “Did he make any other movements?”

“No, no,” the man shook his head.

Gao Rong also looked towards Li Yahong, suggesting, “Vice Leader Li, I think it might be better to keep Skeleton Investigators separated from the work area.”

Li Yahong, sitting in the executive chair, glanced at Gao Rong and then at the man standing before her, and said, “Bring out the mud doll.”

Someone behind her opened a backpack and took a wooden box out.

After being opened, a bizarre and eerie mud doll was placed on the table.

Amid everyone's puzzled looks, Li Yahong directly said, “Move a chair, sit across from it, and stare into the eyes of the mud sculpture.”

The man, still frowning and somewhat bewildered, complied nevertheless, moving a chair and sitting in the position opposite.

Li Yahong instructed, “Repeat what happened with the Skeleton.”

The man began, “Li Xiang was somewhat unhappy with the arrangements for the investigation, then he tried to snatch the notebook from the Skeleton, and the Skeleton suddenly retaliated, knocking him out.”

As he spoke, the man's eyes gradually widened.

In disbelief, he wondered how he could say such things.

Li Yahong smiled and covered the eyes of the mud sculpture with her hands.

The man jerked to his feet, his eyes full of panic, sweat beading on his forehead.

The room fell silent again.

Indeed, it had been Li Xiang who had instigated the incident, taking something from the Skeleton, which was deemed provocation or aggression.

This was the first day the investigator was arranged for this, and such an incident had already occurred.

Not a single person spoke, and the room stayed silent for a minute.

Li Yahong's negative state dissipated, and she spoke softly, “Manager Gao, please explain.”

Gao Rong responded, “Vice Leader, the young people are impulsive; I'll properly discipline them when I get back.”

“Impulsive hands, yet not a single truthful word in their mouths.”

“Have them write a self-critique and personally apologize to you afterwards.”

Li Yahong continued to stare at him, “Manager Gao, today you protect them for grabbing a notebook, but tomorrow they grab a Skeleton's gun, will you still protect them?”

In the eyes of the Skeleton, taking a Skeleton Investigator's notebook or seizing a patrol Skeleton's gun made no difference; both triggered a retaliatory response.

The behavior was the same.

Gao Rong responded, “No one would dare to grab a gun; give them another chance, Vice Leader.”

Li Yahong looked at him again.

Previously, Li Yahong would certainly have given Gao Rong face, as there wasn't much harm done.

But this time was different; Wu Heng had specifically asked her to come investigate, and on day one with the Skeleton in the office, this incident occurred.

She couldn't just let it go.

“I'll consult with the Leader,” Li Yahong said.

The man across panicked, “Vice Leader, Manager Gao, I was wrong; I accept the punishment.”

Li Yahong dialed a number, and the call was quickly connected.

She recounted the situation, agreeing with a few hums.

Hanging up, she said, “Gao Rong, manage here well, and you, come with me to Xinfu City.”

Gao Rong's face darkened, “Alright, I understand.”

“Prepare yourself; we'll wait for you in the car.” Li Yahong stood up, leading her people away.

Gao Rong remained in the office, his expression grim.

The man who had just lied was pale, questioning why he had interfered, “Manager Gao, I was just trying to speak for our people.”

Gao Rong suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with anger.

The man hesitated with his next words, murmuring, “Sorry.”

“Make the incident public, Li Xiang provoked the Skeleton Investigator, removed from his current post. Any negligence or incompetence in their current positions will result in removal, serving as a warning.”

“Yes!” the personnel behind immediately responded.

Through Li Yahong's attitude, it could also be understood that the base's Leader likely had some grievances with this side already.

“Alright, go about your own business; accelerate the planned tasks,” Gao Rong said and headed out the door.

The lying man hesitated before following him out.

Prison.

After hanging up, the phone was casually left aside.

Today Li Yahong had brought a group of Skeleton Investigators over, expecting some issues would surface after a while, yet the problem arose on the very same day.
