Chapter 284 Reasons for Choosing a Prosecutor

After leaving the e-sports hotel, Xia Qiyuan and Gao Bin did not go anywhere else.

The two drove around the city briefly before returning to their booked hotel.

"Hey, I'm telling you, we're not short of money, can't we find a better place to stay? If we want to save money, wouldn't it be more convenient to just rent a place for a month?"

The first thing Gao Bin did upon returning to the hotel was to sigh.

The hotel they stayed at was just a regular budget hotel.

The room was just a very ordinary one, a standard room with one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom.

This is their temporary residence.

They change their accommodations every two or three days.

In Gao Bin's eyes, this was meaningless caution.

He complained more than once that all this switching was no better than just applying for a motorhome.

However, Gao Bin was quite frightened by Xia Qiyuan's serious expression as he considered his opinion.

He seems to genuinely intend to apply to higher authorities.

This really worried Gao Bin, who quickly said he had to work overtime to dissuade him from his idea.

Just kidding, I'm already busy enough as it is.

If we had a motorhome, wouldn't it be amazing to have it all – living, eating, and traveling all in one?

"We came to Qianhua City on a mission, not for tourism."

Moreover, those big hotels all have connections with local officials, and given our current status, we will definitely attract their attention.

If our whereabouts are revealed, that would be disastrous; you probably understand that without me saying it.

Xia Qiyuan pulled out a sensor device he had prepared beforehand from under the sofa.

This disposable sensor automatically sends an alarm to the user's mobile phone when it detects someone entering the room.

However, according to the records, no one has entered.

"Tsk, damn bureaucracy."

Gao Bin couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Now I have to get used to this new sofa every day."

"Don't say that. You seemed to enjoy your time back in Nevada, didn't you?"

Xia Qiyuan chuckled sarcastically and asked, "How does it feel to be treated like a high-ranking leader by local officials? Has it corrupted you?"

Gao Bin blushed, somewhat embarrassed: "How can you blame me? It was just a special situation at the time. Eating... can eating something be called enjoyment?"

"Tsk tsk tsk, abalone, lobster, and caviar every day, champagne after meals, and big fish and meat at every meal. If this is not considered enjoyment, it seems that the taste of the Supreme People's Procuratorate is truly beyond the comprehension of ordinary people."

Xia Qiyuan's sarcasm left Gao Bin feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Can you blame me?
They use this to test their cadres. Which cadre can withstand such a test?

However, Gao Bin only dared to mutter these words to himself.

Gao Bin knew he couldn't win an argument with Xia Qiyuan, and since he hadn't accepted any bribes, he simply gave up.

"It's all because you insisted on having the identity of a prosecutor that we're in such a passive position now."

Gao Bin walked to the freezer, picked up a bottle of cola, and gulped down more than half of it in one go.

It seems that this is a way to vent one's inner dissatisfaction.

However, as the carbon dioxide was expelled, he returned to his previous listless state and collapsed face down on the sofa.

This kind of carefree behavior, disregarding face and image, is very much his style.

Having grown accustomed to Gao Bin's complaints, Xia Qiyuan basically ignored them.

But wanting Gao Bin to improve, he patiently explained the reasons.

"Prosecutors have a high status and a special identity. They don't have to attend troublesome dinner parties, and they don't need to reveal the purpose of their actions to outsiders. They have a lot of freedom to act."

In addition, as high-level inspectors of the Asian Union, prosecutors have considerable power in the event of any emergencies in the area, and it is very convenient for them to direct the relevant local departments.

I don't want the situation to escalate because I don't have the authority to issue orders when I need to mobilize public officials to evacuate the scene.

Another option is to apply for access to local databases to consult certain materials without needing local approval. This is to prevent individuals from acting with impunity and getting into arguments over something as simple as looking up information.

Xia Qiyuan slowly explained why he chose the prosecutor as his false identity.

Gao Bin lay sprawled on the sofa without moving, turning his head to face half of Xia Qiyuan.

"So, to avoid conflicts with the locals, you choose a profession from the start that they dare not contradict?"

"That's a good summary, that's the general idea."

Xia Qiyuan rarely praised Gao Bin.

But Gao Bin's eyes darted around and he spotted a loophole: "What if, I mean what if, some officials with a guilty conscience deleted some of the dirt on us when we arrived?"

What if the deleted negative information contains any clues about the disciples?

Gao Bin propped himself up on his elbows and supported his head with his left hand: "Wouldn't we be shooting ourselves in the foot?"

Xia Qiyuan turned his head, somewhat surprised that Gao Bin could actually utter such a rational statement.

"Hey, what's with that look on your face?"

"It's nothing, I just didn't expect you to notice that."

Xia Qiyuan shook his head, his expression turning away from the sweet embroidery he had been watching Zhang Fei humming.

Actually, Gao Bin isn't stupid; if you had to categorize him, he'd be considered intelligent. It's just that he's a bit lazy.

Xia Qiyuan noticed this, which is why he tirelessly corrected Gao Bin's personality, attempting to change his behavior through subtle means.

However, judging from the feedback over the years, the results have been minimal.

"Regarding your doubts, there's no need to worry. Before we came to Chihwa City, the intelligence department of the Countermeasures Bureau had already transferred the information about Chihwa City to my personal armor. I have a general idea of ​​who the problem is."

"Really? Then why are you still..."

Gao Bin did not show much surprise at this.

If he could think of it himself, there's no reason why Xia Qiyuan couldn't.

He just wanted to know what Xia Qiyuan's purpose was in doing this.

“After all, we are prosecutors sent down from above. When we come down here, we have to take a few people with us to establish our authority and complete our mission.”

Xia Qiyuan turned his gaze back to the laptop on his lap: "Those guys who are covering up dirty secrets are the targets I'm going to sacrifice... to take action against."

"Originally, I planned to spend a few days wandering around Qianhua City before taking any action, but there was an emergency in Neva City, so I had to put my plans on hold for the time being."

When I returned, Hu Yingshao, who was originally intended for surgery, was already dead.

Gao Bin listened in silence for a long while before remarking, "What a terrifying person."

"I am over-flattered."

"No, what part of it made you think I was praising you..."

Gao Bin sighed and buried his head back into the sofa.

In a sense, Xia Qiyuan was even more self-willed than him, completely disregarding other people's opinions.
