Chapter 101: Chapter 88: Super Power Bank, Legendary Talent (Two in One!) - Part 2
The number of casualties is too high, and the losses on all fronts are too severe. This is bound to result in a lower evaluation, losing the possibility of advancing further into Central City.
"Secretary Huo, check on the child later. He is the great savior of Old Factory Street and the major contributor who saved the political careers of everyone here. We must find him and express our gratitude."
Chen Ruofu took the initiative to set the tone, to prevent anyone from making any chaotic and foolish moves.
He had been in the Inspection Department of the Urban Circle for more than ten years, fully aware that the capabilities of bureaucrats should not be underestimated, but neither should their bottom line be overestimated.
The turmoil in Old Factory Street was so significant and the resolution so outstanding, there was bound to be some greedy fool jumping out to claim credit.
This wasn’t mere paranoia; the less background a small character had, the easier their contributions and achievements were to be seized by others.
"Understood, Minister."
The refined Secretary Huo nodded, indicating he took note, and mentioned seemingly inadvertently:
"Group Leader Chen from the Inspection Department’s Seventh Group seems to know this young hero. They acted together."
Chen Ruofu narrowed his eyes, speaking lightly:
"Chen Yun held the front line firmly, and her contributions are not small. She can be set as an example and commended."
The inspectors nearby couldn’t help but admire; no wonder he could become the leader’s personal secretary.
Everyone in the Inspection Department knew that Team Leader Chen was Minister Chen’s daughter.
But for someone like Secretary Huo to shift the credit so lightly with a single sentence, there were indeed very few who could do that.
"Minister, a call from Qin Renying."
As he walked out of the temporary command room, with the dawn just breaking and the sky showing a touch of white, Secretary Huo handed the phone to Chen Ruofu.
The latter waved his hand, looking calm:
"The information is very sensitive. Though Yan City is far away, the high-level of the Urban Circle seems to be well informed about every move. Don’t pick up yet. Now that the turmoil has subsided, Qin Renying should carefully consider how to give me an explanation.
Secretary Huo, have someone prepare the helicopter. I’m going to the factory district in person."
...
"Sis is going to get promoted!"
Chen Yun smirked, inspecting the scene, her mind filled with thoughts of how to write the report once she returned, highlighting her own courageous and heroic image.
She crossed her arms and gazed at Qin Shi, the MVP of this operation, wistfully wishing she could kiss him:
"Little Qin, how are you planning to hold the celebration feast? Considering you went to the rear and turned the tide, asking your sister to wear black stockings to accompany you for a night is not out of the question."
Qin Shi’s eyes flickered, swiftly glancing at Chen Yun’s legs. Long and white as they were, they still fell short compared to Lin Yunqing.
"Sister Yun, I just fulfilled my duty as a citizen of Dongxia. Whatever tens of thousands of bonuses, fifty extra points for the college entrance exam, TV interviews, hero banners, or being betrothed, you all can decide. There’s no need for excessive courtesy."
Chen Yun’s mouth twitched in response. This kid had some nerve. The earlier points were negotiable; the last one would require saving Heng Province from disaster and Dongxia Republic awarding an honor medal, otherwise you’re just dreaming.
The Four National Universities stand at the pinnacle of the Galaxy’s academies. In some sense, they have transcended the category of "educational institutions" and have risen to the concept of "major forces" or "major gate valves."
After all, the resources they can mobilize and the energy they possess have long surpassed the Planet Governors of the Governors, approaching the highest core of the Three Ministries and Nine Departments.
"Sister Yun, can I keep this circuit board?"
Qin Shi proactively brought up the topic. The Inspection Department was no fool. Through interrogation of Brother Ze and gathering various information from the Qin Family, they would surely know the cause of the formation of the Electronic Demon.
He sneakily kept the spoils; this matter certainly couldn’t be hidden, so he straightforwardly asked, saving the trouble from suspicions.
"Okay, but you’ll need to let the evidence colleagues check if there are any Electronic Demon remnants."
Chen Yun agreed readily. She was completely immersed in the wonderful fantasy of being promoted and getting a raise, so pleasant that even if Qin Shi invited her to a hotel tonight for a feast, she might consider agreeing.
"Xiao Ba, come over and scan this, see if there are any traces of the Electronic Demon on this circuit board."
Qin Shi handed over the circuit board, not worried about the energy named "Fire" exposed by the Monument Panel.
The chatterbox voice of the repetitive machine had been silent from the beginning.
If he hadn’t activated the [Electronic Mind] himself, plus the radar sensing of [Overgrowth], he wouldn’t have been able to find it.
"Electronic wave peak values are normal."
Xiao Ba quickly handed the item back:
"Group Leader, all infected appliances show varying degrees of damage. Fortunately, the live carriers holding the Electronic Demon virus did not use large-scale dissemination methods, so just focused disinfection and removal will suffice."
Chen Yun nodded. The most troublesome issue with the Electronic Demon was its boundaryless spread.
As long as energy was sufficient and signals strong enough, they could even infect the globe within three days, causing all electronic facilities to fail and awakening a vast army of mechanical bodies.
Thus, the Electronic Demon was also known as "Fire," meaning it rampaged fiercely, burning everything in its path.
However, conversely, as long as the source was contained, preventing its spread, the threat of the Electronic Demon was minimal.
Because it had no inherent offensive capabilities, it needed to find hosts to parasitize through "possession."
"Little Qin, did you hear any shrill sounds from the Electronic Demon when you dealt with Cheng Ze?"
Chen Yun was going through the on-site inspection records, facilitating her writing of the report later.
"Yes, there was a faint buzzing electric current sound. It didn’t last long before it dissipated."
