My blind date failed, so I had to ascend the throne and become emperor.

Chapter 102 Reason
The seventh underground floor of the Special Section.

Remote screen link.

Director Wang, who was sitting in the office, soon appeared on the screen.

Zhou Ping showed the purple Taoist talisman in his hand to Director Wang.

After looking carefully.

Director Wang's expression became serious. "Invisibility Talisman, I didn't expect it to be this kind of Taoist Talisman."

Wu Tianming couldn't help but ask, "Director Wang, is there anyone in our country who can make this kind of Taoist talisman?"

"Have."

Director Wang said slowly, "Before the discovery of the spacecraft, the abbots of several Taoist temples in China would create Taoist talismans, but they were basically ineffective. They were simply passing down the traditional Taoist culture."

"But since entering the spaceship for training, the effects of the Taoist talismans have gradually become apparent. However, there are very few people who can create invisibility talismans. There are only a handful of people. Now there are several experts and professors in the country who can make them, but they are absolutely impossible to make them to harm people."

"Are you sure this is from the suspect?"

Zhou Ping said in a deep voice, "Sure."

Director Wang frowned and said, "How about this, Zhou Ping, come to Kyoto and I'll take you to meet some old people. Maybe we can get some clues from them."

"it is good."

End remote communication.

Just as Zhou Ping was about to book a flight, Captain Wu beside him reminded him, "Zhou Ping, this matter might be a bit tricky. Our country is the only country in the world that can create invisibility spells. If, if, these experts and professors are really behind the missing child case, then the implications are quite significant."

"So you have to decide for yourself."

Zhou Ping was silent for a moment.

He understood what Captain Wu meant.

Obviously, he wanted to stop at the right time. As long as the missing children could be found, he should not delve into it too deeply. Because at this point, no matter whether it was from the Taoist temples or not, there must be a connection with them behind the scenes.

no answer.

He left the special department directly.

evening.

Kyoto.

Office of the General Administration of Special Sections.

Looking at Zhou Ping who came here exhausted.

Director Wang sighed and said, "Let's not investigate this matter any further."

Zhou Ping's heart skipped a beat. "Why, Director? This missing case concerns dozens of children across the country who have developed spiritual roots. If we don't find them, it means dozens of families will be torn apart..."

Director Wang interrupted, "I know."

He smoked a cigarette and then continued, "I will send those children back safely. As for the rest, don't investigate."

Zhou Ping frowned. "Director, the original purpose of establishing our special emergency response team is to resolve malicious incidents across the country. This missing child incident is the first of its kind. Even if the children were not harmed, this behavior is extremely egregious. We cannot back down just because some untouchable or well-connected individuals are involved."

"If that's the case, then what's the point of establishing this task force?"

Director Wang shook his head. "It's not what you imagine. Before you came, I went to the Pope's Department and asked the experts and professors. They can indeed create an invisibility spell, but no one would do such a thing."

Listen to this.

Zhou Ping was confused. "Since he's not an expert professor, why can't I continue investigating?"

Director Wang glanced at Zhou Ping. "This matter involves national secrets, and it also concerns the global crisis 10 years from now."

"Let me ask you, given the current level of cultivation worldwide, do you think Earth could handle a cosmic cultivation force on par with the Taiyan Sect?"

Zhou Ping said without hesitation: "No."

Director Wang sighed, "Yes, we can't, and there's no chance of winning, so we have to find another way!"

Zhou Ping stared at Director Wang and said seriously, "Director, don't tell me that we can find a solution by relying on these children who have just nurtured their spiritual roots?"

"Also, even if there was hope, we could just tell them directly and openly that we wanted to borrow some children. I believe that as long as it was for the country, the parents of these children would agree. But why resort to such means!"

"So this isn't something the government is doing, but someone is pushing it behind the scenes, right?"

Director Wang remained silent, clearly agreeing with Zhou Ping's speculation.

I have more to say when I see Zhou Ping.

Director Wang waved his hand. "Those children will be safe. We are just doing this to conceal our activities."

"Director."

"I apply to withdraw from the task force."

Zhou Ping took out his ID and handed it over.

Director Wang frowned and said, "Nonsense! As the captain of the task force, how can you act recklessly..."

Zhou Ping said slowly, "If the task force can compromise today because of a matter that concerns secrecy and future crises, they will compromise countless times in the future and eventually become tools of certain people. I joined the team not for the generous treatment and cultivation resources, but to contribute to the country."

"With great power comes great responsibility."

"But now, the purpose of the group has gone against my original intention."

Speaking of which.

He whispered, "It's not the country that's pushing this, but certain individuals. But has the Director ever considered whether these people are really doing this for the country, to cope with the crisis 10 years from now?"

Director Wang was stunned. He was silent for a long moment, then sighed helplessly, "Alright, you do have a point. So, you continue your investigation, but even if you find something, don't alert them. Find out their purpose first."

"If their intention is to harm those children or the country, your emergency response team, including me, will take action!"

He glanced at Zhou Ping, and seeing that he didn't retract his hand, he smiled bitterly and said, "Two companies are involved in this matter. As for what these two companies do, I can't go into detail. I can only tell you that they are involved in all aspects of the country. They are behind two of the three major groups, including the Taoist Academy."

"Of course, there are no chaebol families in the country. They represent two major interests. Moreover, since the discovery of space ships, these two families have been developing and researching deeper levels of cultivation. Their goal is also to make the country strong."

Hear this.

Zhou Ping suddenly realized that he had a vague guess.

The development of a century of cultivation has indeed brought about great changes in the domestic situation, but no matter how it develops, it is difficult to escape the limitations of human nature. As long as there are human beings and as long as there are interests, interest groups will be formed.

This is a fact that cannot be changed at all.

"King Bureau."

"Since there are two major interest groups behind this, why don't they just go through official channels instead of resorting to this method?"

Director Wang pondered, "Over the years, foreign forces and evil organizations have infiltrated the country extensively. I suspect these two organizations are trying to conceal their true purpose, which is why they've adopted this method. The specific reasons are up to you to investigate. I asked you to stop because I was worried you'd end up in conflict with them."

"The two families control most of the resources. You have great potential and you can't let this happen to you."

Zhou Ping understood.

Director Wang was thinking about him.

But some people think too much.

He smiled and said, "Director, I'm just a cultivator who has been practicing for a few months. Even if I find out something, the two families won't care much. Besides, I still have to ask you for your instructions."

Director Wang glared and said, "You know how to ask for instructions? You just quit and didn't ask for instructions?"

Zhou Ping laughed dryly, "That was just a moment of excitement."

"okay."

"Take your documents back quickly."

Director Wang said unhappily, "But the fact that you can stick to yourself proves that I was right about you. I was not thoughtful enough on this matter. You keep watching."

Zhou Ping retracted his hand and asked, "Director, where were those children transported to?"

"They didn't say."

"Wait a minute, I'll make a phone call."

With that, Director Wang walked outside.

Not a moment later.

He returned to the office and said, "It's in a small city in the Yunnan-Guizhou area. You can take a plane there tomorrow. They happen to be short of staff. You can go there tomorrow and supervise them."

Zhou Ping was stunned for a moment, "Can I go directly there?"
