First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!

Little did they know, it was because Xiang Yu’s pride was too high, and he couldn’t face the elders of Jiangdong after the tragic deaths of tens of thousands of his fellow villagers and soldiers.

No other way!

But Lu Ding wasn’t like that.

He was getting too comfortable.

He even dared to lay hands on him!!

The man had just taken one step forward.

His hand hadn’t even touched Lu Ding’s shoulder yet.

A leg rose.

Like a battering ram, it smashed forward with immense force.

*BANG!!!*”Get the fuck out of here!”

The figure flew backward.

Xue Kai smiled.

”Resisting arrest, assaulting a Review Office public official. Lu Ding, I hereby...”

Before he could finish, Lu Ding directly pulled out his special envoy credentials, documents, and other items, shoving them in his face, cutting him off: ”Obstructing official duties, abusing authority, harboring criminals, and what’s more, harboring criminals who intended to murder a 749 Bureau Director-General special envoy executing a classified mission!!”

”How many heads do you have to spare for getting me transferred!!!”

After speaking, without rest, without pause.

He directly continued Xue Kai’s own unfinished line: ”In my capacity as a special envoy, I now demand to inspect your credentials, procedures, letter of introduction, and the written documentation requiring a special envoy to cooperate with an investigation!!!”

Xue Kai knew Lu Ding was a special envoy, and also knew Lu Ding was guaranteed by Elder Shui and dispatched to the new city through proper procedures.

Therefore, he had made ample preparations.

But now, when he actually saw Lu Ding’s credentials.

Only then did he belatedly realize.

The preparations were insufficient!!!

Because Lu Ding wasn’t an ordinary envoy dispatched to just one area of the new city.

But to the entire new city, and as a permanent resident!

The reason he didn’t know this before was that his rank wasn’t high enough. A mere department head, was he worthy of knowing Elder Shui’s level of arrangements?

Now he knew.

The procedures he had prepared weren’t of sufficient grade to take away Lu Ding, the permanent resident special envoy of the new city.

What’s more, now the attempt to steal a chicken had ended up losing the rice, putting him squarely on the spot.

Because, in Lu Ding’s words, there was also a bombshell of information!

’Harboring criminals who intended to murder a 749 Bureau Director-General special envoy executing a classified mission!!’

Xue Kai’s heart tightened. His wife hadn’t mentioned this part to him.

He had originally thought today’s matter was just the old grudge between the Dong and Su families against Lu Ding, and that with Lu Ding’s successful development in the new city, he had returned for revenge, settling accounts after the fact. He never imagined there was such a reason behind it.

But things had come to this, he absolutely couldn’t show weakness.

Yet before he could speak.

Lu Ding directly pressed forward, picking up his credentials and slapping them toward him: ”Are you deaf!?”

Xue Kai blocked it.

”You!!”

”I am the permanent resident special envoy of the new city, holding dual credentials under one nation. Original household registration is in Great Han’s Yunhai, Third Circle. Now, if you want my cooperation, I need to see the new city’s specially formulated special administration procedure report!”

Again, he swung the credentials to slap.

Xue Kai blocked again.

This time, he didn’t dare speak.

Dual credentials under one nation, new city special zone special administration, Third Circle household registration—where the hell was there any such report?

Xue Kai had simply not known before that Lu Ding’s special envoy grade was this high.

He just listened as Lu Ding continued.

”I also need to see the Hanjing 749 Bureau Director-General procedure and process report, the Hanjing 749 Bureau Special Mission Management Office notification report, and the personally signed report from the directly overseeing Elder Shui!!!”

The third time, he picked up his credentials and slapped them over.

This time...

Xue Kai didn’t know how to block.

Slapping his face with the credentials he could block, but how to block these identities, these things?

*SMACK!!!*

The not-thick but sturdy hard-shell credential slapped heavily against Xue Kai’s face.

The blow made his head turn.

Several subordinates who had come with him, seeing their leader insulted: ”Uncle Xue!!!”

”Brother Kai!!!”

Hearing the voices, Lu Ding abruptly turned, pointing at the person who spoke with his credential.

”You have a problem with that!?”

”Or you have a problem with that!?”

”Insufficient procedures means illegal law enforcement, law enforcement without proper procedures, plus obstructing official duties, intent to harbor criminals. I have every right to beat you all to death right now!!”

Someone took a step back.

But there was still one young man, looking at Lu Ding with a face full of defiance and resentment.

A typical hothead, the common angry face seen in dramas.

The kind with an impatient, rash temperament, standing behind his superior glaring at others with a furious expression.

Before, every time Lu Ding saw this kind of scene, he wanted to ask, why not just smack him?

Now, he didn’t need to ask.

He acted directly.

A straight front kick, powerful and heavy!!!

”You think I’m fucking joking with you!?”

He directly blasted the person flying.

Don’t talk to Lu Ding about innocence or not.

If today his confidence was insufficient, wouldn’t the one being taken away be him?!

He had talent, he had backing, so facing these Review Office people, he wasn’t the least bit afraid.

But, if it were investigators with insufficient talent or background, after being taken away by the Review Office, a permanent steel seal would be stamped on their personal records, indicating they had been ’cared for’ by the Review Office.

Although as long as they came out safe and sound, there was no major problem.

But having this seal meant they were on file with the Review Office, classified as a Review Office yellow-flagged investigator, which would affect future promotions and transfers.

Given other choices, many people wouldn’t want an investigator recorded in the Review Office’s books as their subordinate.

After all, this thing was troublesome. The Review Office couldn’t do anything else, couldn’t even handle other matters; handling anything else was considered a violation, illegal operation. They only targeted investigators who broke laws and discipline. Because 749 investigators’ power was too great, they were like rabid dogs. Using such a subordinate was easy to invite trouble, to get bitten by the rabid dog oneself.

”Lu Ding, enough!”

Xue Kai couldn’t help but speak out. These subordinates were all his trusted aides, specially selected and brought along.

He originally thought their cultivation levels were weak, which would provide room for maneuver.

Who would have thought this instead gave Lu Ding the opportunity to freely bully the weak? These people didn’t even have time to react.

Hearing this, Lu Ding directly turned and got right in his face, meeting his gaze: ”What the fuck do you mean ’enough’!?”

”I’ll only count to three. The bodycams are all recording. Either you produce these things for me, and I’ll cooperate with you, just like you said—procedures, formalities, regulations grant me the right to see these things!!”

”Or, after three counts, if you can’t produce them, then I now formally notify you in advance, in my capacity as the new city special envoy currently on a mission, and in my own name, Lu Ding: Special envoys handle special matters specially. Without needing documents, reports, procedures, or processes, they possess absolute independent judgment and free adjudication rights over any person or matter that obstructs the normal progress of the mission during the mission period!”

Using his own methods against him, the same formulaic recitation.

But Lu Ding hearing it before, and Xue Kai hearing it now, were two different mental states.

One, with confidence in his heart, remained unflustered. The other, having been checkmated, was trembling inside.

Xue Kai understood clearly. If he couldn’t produce them, Lu Ding might just take action.

If he resisted, that was resisting arrest. If he fled, that was fleeing from the crime. If he injured Lu Ding, that was adding another crime on top!

The bodycams had been on the whole time.

”One!”

Lu Ding’s voice rang out.

Xue Kai frowned, calmly and unhurriedly searching for loopholes in Lu Ding’s argument: ”You are specially dispatched to the new city. This is not the new city, this is Hanjing. Your authority is only within the new city!”

Since he worked in 749, how could Lu Ding not read the 749 regulations and laws? Although he liked things to be reasonable and legal but not compliant, each time it was relatively borderline, the circumstances not severe. This was the merit of being thoroughly familiar with 749 regulations and statutes.

Even this return was the same.

”I returned to report on my duties. Moreover, I have not yet set foot in the Hanjing 749 Bureau Director-General, nor have I signed in or reported. In other words, I am currently on my way back to report on duties, encountering an emergency situation en route. Among the special envoy’s rights, there is: In case of emergencies, the special envoy possesses absolute independent judgment.”

”My independent judgment tells me that the matters of the Dong and Su families are more important than my return to the capital to report on duties.”

He was guarding against this very move. Otherwise, why wouldn’t Lu Ding first return to the Director-General to find Elder Shui? He wasn’t so pressed he didn’t have time for that detour.

And from beginning to end, Lu Ding had not mobilized any investigators from the Director-General, precisely to highlight the ’emergency situation’. Just these four words could be used anywhere, and no one could find fault with him.

Xue Kai thought coming over with the Review Office identity to overpower Lu Ding’s small regional special investigator identity was being on the second level, never imagining Lu Ding’s whole-zone special envoy identity was on the third level. Xue Kai thought he had found the blind spot on the fourth level, but Lu Ding, with ’emergency situation’ and several preparations made in advance, had soared to the stratosphere!

Moreover, the conditions of ’special envoy’, ’emergency situation’, ’returning to the capital to report on duties’, and ’the Dong and Su families intending to murder a special investigator’, etc., overlapped together, forming a perfect perpetual motion machine, successfully closing the loop by stepping on one’s own foot—simply watertight!

”Two!!!”
