Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 589: 372, Taking office, CIA Inspector_2 Chapter 589: 372, Taking office, CIA Inspector_2 Qing Wen changed into the PCA Central Intelligence Agency uniform, looking humble and modest, and had already taken off the watch that was worth a set of houses in the Upper Three Districts without wearing it.

In this report, Qing Wen was with Intelligence Department Three, Team Four, Qing Shi with Team Five, Qing Wu with Team Six, Qing Yuan with Team Seven, Qing Yi with Team Eight, Qing Xing with Team Nine.

At this point, the detectives under Qing Yi, Team Eight, were quick to say their goodbyes to Qing Wen and gathered around Qing Yi upon seeing their legitimate boss arrive.

Although they felt that Qing Yi stood no chance in the Shadow struggle, they still needed to give him face.

Otherwise, if Qing Yi’s parents felt that their child had been wronged here at the PCA Central Intelligence Agency, they wouldn’t be able to withstand it either.

For the consortium, they were just struggling ants.

A detective came up to Qing Yi and cautiously said, “We saw Qing Wen come early, so we went over to exchange a few words.”

Qing Yi smiled and said, “Don’t worry about it, brothers and sisters.”

Having finished speaking, he walked straight up to Qing Wen, with his watermelon-head style hair neatly done, and said sweetly, “Brother Qing Wen, congratulations on your victory in City 18.”

What he was referring to was the death of Qing Zhong, who, although not killed by Qing Wen himself, was indeed seen as a victory for Qing Wen by the outside world.

Qing Wen also looked at Qing Yi with a kind expression, “I heard that after you arrived in City 18, you went straight to Banshan Manor?”

Qing Yi nodded, “Yes, I went to visit Aunt Changqing. She was worried about me and suggested since I was not keen on joining the Shadow strife, it might be better to stay at Banshan Manor.”

It should be noted that Qing Yi was the first to declare his disinterest in the Shadow struggle, and he had even gifted his taboo item, the ACE-090 Immortal Pin, which he had acquired in the first round, to Qing Wen early on.

And his age was the most likely to be underestimated objectively.

Then Qing Yi smiled and said, “Brother Qing Wen, I don’t really have the ability to complete the tasks Mr. Shadow has given, so how about this, if you’re ever short-staffed, you can always call on my people.”

With that, Qing Yi looked toward his detectives from Team Eight, “Remember, brothers and sisters, if Brother Qing Wen needs any help, be sure to assist him well.”

The detectives were thrilled inside, as this meant that even though they did not have a hot candidate like Qing Wen as their Inspector, they were genuinely assisting Qing Wen, and surely he wouldn’t forget them if he was promoted.

However, it looked like Qing Yi truly had no intention of engaging in the Shadow struggle, did he?

What they didn’t know was that there were already Qing Yi’s Kite Falcons planted among these Team Eight detectives, and the chat between the detectives yesterday had also been forwarded to Qing Yi by a Kite Falcon.

Therefore, he couldn’t wait for Qing Wen to take his Team Eight out on tasks, so his Kite Falcons could report back Qing Wen’s every move.

Just then, a confused voice from outside the large office asked, “Whose wallet is this?”

Without looking, Qing Yi knew who it was, Qing Xing.

For some reason, Qing Xing had a mysterious buff ever since he was a child; from the age of seven, whenever he went out, he would find money, and it seemed as if he was always the recipient of good fortune, like someone chosen by destiny.

This story had become legendary within the Qing’s Family, saying that he was naturally different, blessed with luck.

Qing Xing was not originally called Qing Xing, but Qing Chong. Later, due to his extraordinary luck, his father renamed him Qing Xing.

Then, a detective came hurrying along the corridor outside to Qing Xing and said, “Hello, that’s my wallet…”

Qing Xing calmly nodded, “Then I’ll return it to you.”

After that, the young man in his twenties left as if nothing had happened and went to his own office to report.

It was as if he was accustomed to finding money and wallets all the time.

Gradually, all the Shadow Candidates arrived.

It was not surprising that all the Shadow Candidates were dressed very simply, totally shedding their airs as core members of their consortiums, trying to blend in with their detectives, even eating lunch together in the cafeteria.

Qing Yi was the only exception; he had little interaction with his detectives, idly sitting at his desk during work hours, and during lunchtime, he would dine in the administrative-level car parked at the door, which was filled with exquisite and rare food.

As Qing Yi ate, he sent a message to his Kite Falcon, “Why didn’t I see the office location for Intelligence Department One?”

The Kite Falcon replied, “Intelligence Department One is an independent department, which operates a kilometer away in the neighboring building.”

Qing Yi found this strange, “Why are they operating independently?”

The Kite Falcon, “All the consortiums have sent their elite intelligence personnel there to compete for legitimate intelligence power. Therefore, to avoid those Living Hades from affecting others with their infighting, the PCA Central Intelligence Agency’s higher-ups have allowed Intelligence Department One to operate independently.”

Qing Yi put down his phone and continued eating, feeling that he might want to visit Intelligence Department One at some point. It seemed that was where the real Federal Central Intelligence Bureau was.

…

…

A kilometer away.

Qing Chen stood silently outside a dilapidated building, in stark contrast to other towering skyscrapers, like a department store from the old era of the Outer World.

It had only nine floors, and even the glass structure on the outside of the building was shabby, uncleaned by anyone.

The only distinctive feature was the surrounding yard, with walls three meters high, orderly electrified fences on top, and surveillance cameras everywhere.
