Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

After Jiang Qingtong finished speaking, He Li beamed with joy, while Li Qing and the others became somewhat uneasy.

The right to act first and report later!

When did the Special Affairs Bureau acquire this kind of privilege?

They had never even heard of it.

Moreover, if he holds such outrageous power, then He Li could really become someone who "is ordered" to kill. If he says you are guilty, he can just chop you up and you really have no way to do anything about it.

You can't even stop or resist it.

If you resist, that is resisting arrest, that is disregarding the laws of the Great Xia Dynasty, and that is disregarding the Special Bureau of the Great Xia Dynasty.

If you don't resist, you will surely die.

Even if it's later confirmed that a mistake was made, so what? Not to mention that Shi Heli doesn't need to argue; he can simply use his privileges to escape punishment unscathed…

The most crucial point is that you're already dead, so whether you're guilty or not is entirely up to him to decide.

Such outrageous privileges were absent from ancient feudal dynasties.

That has never existed in today's society.

But He Li broke new ground in this regard...

Even though Li Qing and his group sided with He Li, they couldn't help but wonder, "What are those high-ranking officials in Kyoto thinking? Can they really set such a precedent for outrageous privileges?"

"It's still going to be given to He Li... Don't they know what kind of person he is?"

"He's already arrogant and presumptuous enough in his actions."

"Now that he has such great power, aren't people in Kyoto afraid that he'll run to Shanghai and kill all the powerful and influential people there? Others might not be able to do such a thing."

"But he's really daring!!!"

Li Qing and the others were deeply troubled.

When they first met Jiang Qingtong and her companion, they guessed that Kyoto would offer He Li more benefits...

But I never expected it to be this outrageous.

Looking at He Li now...

Their eyes changed.

In the past, they only saw He Li as a genius who had emerged from their Bacheng Special Bureau, and their gazes toward him were those of elders looking at a junior with satisfaction and approval.

Now, their gaze is that of a subordinate looking at a superior with a certain reverence.

After all, He Li's privileges were too outrageous.

Not to mention those who have offended him, they would definitely be terrified if they knew.

Even Li Qing and his group are afraid.

These two are truly innocent of murder!

However, despite their alarm, Jiang Qingtong brought He Li not only a mission and privileges from Kyoto, but also rewards for He Li's handling of cases...

"I'll send you the general directions of the investigation in Shanghai later."

"Now tell me about your reward."

Jiang Qingtong raised the watch on her wrist.

After a simple operation, she looked at the reward information for He Li on her wristwatch and spoke again...

"Although you haven't reported the whole Dragon Worship Association matter yet, someone in Kyoto has already compiled a list, based on your work from the beginning in Ba City until the Ten-Horned Dragon was defeated..."

"Considering the inherent danger of this entire incident, and the benefits that Great Xia gained..."

"Kyoto has decided to award you 100,000 merits!"

"There's also a chance to get a free purchase at the Special Bureau Shopping Mall."

"At the same time, Kyoto said that you can submit your various requests to their superiors once."

"You'll be given priority in the arrangements."

At this point, she thoughtfully gave examples: "For instance, exclusive weapons and equipment, elixirs, rare treasures, and so on can all be provided to you with priority."

"And you can make a request now, and I'll go back and pass it on to you."

Ten thousand merits?!

Free orders from the online store?!

Can we make further requests?

No? Giving so much?

As the deputy director, Li Qing remained relatively calm, after all, he had received hundreds of thousands of merits before, but the others were somewhat numb to these words.

100,000 merit points... He Li was already incredibly lucky to earn 10,000 or 20,000 from missions before, right?

Even these special bureau cadres...

The merit points earned each month are only a few thousand.

Sometimes, even less.

So He Li is spending tens of thousands of dollars at a time? And he even gave him the chance to get a free order from the mall? Didn't the people in Kyoto ever think he'd just buy hundreds of thousands of rare and precious herbs and eat them?

They even made demands... They've been with the Special Bureau since its inception and they've never received this kind of treatment.

"People really can't be judged the same way!"

"We cadre-level investigators, even if we work ourselves to the bone, the merits we earn are only a tiny fraction."

"He'll be able to keep up with us for several years now."

"Tsk~ Making demands of those above..."

"I wouldn't even dare to dream of it!"

"Even though he's one of our own, and even though I really hope he can get more resources and grow stronger, I... why do I just feel so uneasy about it?"

"I'm afraid the younger generation will suffer, and I'm also afraid they'll be driving Land Rovers!"

"Suddenly, being a cadre doesn't seem so appealing anymore."

"How about... we apply for a reduction?"

"Sitting in the bureau all day, we probably will never have the chance to accumulate as many merits as him..."

Seeing He Li acquire such immense wealth, the senior officials of the Bacheng Special Bureau became unsettled. If it weren't for the presence of the Kyoto investigators, they probably would have spoken to Li Qing on the spot.

Li Qing was naturally aware of their situation.

He felt somewhat helpless.

But He Li paid no attention to any of this.

At this moment, he was just thinking happily about what he should exchange these merits and freebies for; should he exchange them for a miraculous elixir that could quickly break through to the Profound Knowledge Realm?

Or is it a rare treasure from heaven and earth that enhances abilities?

Or perhaps a treasure that can enhance the soul?

Oh right, and things for hatching dragon eggs...

He Like had not forgotten the dragon egg he found in the hidden place of the Ten Directions.

At the same time, He Li also wanted to turn the souls of the Ten Directions and Ten Horns Dragons into his own fighting force and make them a part of his own strength.

That's what he was thinking.

But then Jiang Qingtong continued, "Also, the people in Kyoto intend for you to go to Kyoto."

"But there's no rush."

"Once you've finished dealing with things in Shanghai and have some free time, why don't you take a trip to Kyoto? You'll get a reward from Kyoto for handling those matters in Shanghai."

"Okay!" He Li nodded upon hearing this.

He had anticipated that the Kyoto leadership wanted him to go there.

After all, Kyoto really valued him too much.

Even if Kyoto doesn't make this request now, he will definitely be transferred there later.

He Li felt a sense of anticipation when he thought of Kyoto.

"Kyoto is probably a place where hidden talents reside."

"Not just humans, but also monsters."

"I wonder what kind of abilities the powerful monsters that appeared there can grant me."

He pondered to himself, but Jiang Qingtong didn't pay attention to his wild thoughts. She just waved to Huo Zijin and looked at He Li: "You went to Shanghai and Beijing without reminding Shanghai."

"It's up to you to decide what to do."

"However, it's best to keep your special investigator identity hidden for now, as it will make it easier to find things. After all, if you expose yourself too early, those people might be prepared."

"If you need our cooperation, Kyoto will send another investigator to stir things up..."

Hearing this, He Li nodded.

It is indeed advantageous to conceal the identity of the special investigator.

I'm afraid those people in Shanghai...

They never expected that the guy they had just reported on, who seemed to have many problems, would turn around and become a special investigator, coming to investigate their issues.

When I thought of this...

He Li revealed a sly smile.

He was curious; he wondered what would happen after he went to Shanghai, found out something, and revealed his identity…

What kind of expressions would Lin Fan and his ilk have?

Shocked? Unbelievable? Or what?

"Alright, we'll be going now."

Jiang Qingtong's voice interrupted He Li's thoughts. Huo Zijin's teleportation ability beside her had already begun to activate. Before disappearing, Jiang Qingtong didn't forget to raise her wristwatch to remind He Li...

"You can contact me if you need anything."

"You have my contact information..."

hum! ! !

As the sound abruptly stopped, Jiang Qingtong and Huo Zijin vanished in an instant, turning into a glimmer of light.

At this moment, Li Qing stepped forward and patted He Li on the shoulder: "Although I knew you were no ordinary person, I didn't expect you to become so extraordinary in such a short time."

"You're not even a regular investigator these days..."

"Even local bureau chiefs would have to show him some respect."

As he spoke, he smiled again.

"Let's go back to the station first!"

"You've done something really big, kid. You've gotten the benefits, and our bureau has also been commended. Just then, Mu Lan and the others returned with the spoils from Lecheng."

"The bureau is throwing you a celebration banquet!"

"After that, you'll go to Shanghai!"

He Li nodded with a smile after hearing this.

He was also a little curious about what Mu Lan and the others brought back from the anomaly point where Ku Rongzi was located in Le City. He hadn't had time to search that special anomaly point carefully at the time...

There must be a lot of good stuff inside!
