City Investigation Bureau

The Stagnant Event has been resolved, and the Event Difficulty is estimated to be purple or higher.

The Investigation Bureau hold a review meeting to conduct a detailed review of the personnel who handled this incident, to determine the authenticity of the matter and whether the underlying anomalies have been completely eliminated.

Once confirmed, this event will be highlighted and recorded in your personal profile.

The capital city will also receive relevant notifications, and if there are further outstanding performances, there is a possibility of receiving an advance invitation from the Capital Investigation Bureau.

The review meeting was scheduled for the day after Luo Di was discharged from the hospital.

In addition to the local Investigation Bureau and Research Bureau, Director Wang from the Jupiter City Research Bureau also came to the scene due to the special status of the participants.

The meeting will conduct separate reviews of Luo Di and Anna to ensure the authenticity of their testimonies.

certainly,

These executives also held a report document provided by Yu Ze, which was sufficient as long as the two people's oral statements were identical to the report.

After all, given Yu Ze's identity, it's impossible for him to engage in any fraudulent activities.

The review process went very smoothly.

There is only one point of doubt that needs to be confirmed with Luo Di.

According to the description, the Pseudo-Human corresponding to the "non-existent nursing home" has completely transcended the human realm and reached an "abnormal" level.

The depth of its corners indicates a high quality of pituitary gland. The age of the organ must also be over five years; such Pseudo-Human is quite rare.

If such Pseudo-Human are not eliminated by Luo Di and others, they will have a high probability of winning in the Crevice screening and going to the corner.

Even looking at the whole country, very few investigators are able to discover, locate and deal with such anomalies.

Most importantly, this unusual "pituitary gland" can be described as a rare treasure, priceless. It is a fully mature pituitary gland that balances space and aging.

Once suitable humans are found, excellent investigators can be created.

However, according to Luo Di's account, this pituitary gland was destroyed during the war.

Yu Ze's report also confirmed this, stating that the near-death struggle ultimately destroyed the pituitary gland, making recovery impossible at the time.

"Luo Di, has this pituitary gland really been damaged?"

"Yes."

Director Wang also looked helpless. "It's a real pity. Even if such a pituitary gland is not a match for you, as long as it can be handed over to the state, the capital will give you a nearly identical high-quality reward, or even a pituitary gland of the same grade that is a match for you."

If there is a next time, try to achieve "Pituitary Gland Recovery" as much as possible.

However, it's already quite remarkable that you can handle an incident of this level as a main fighting force.

Because the pituitary gland could not be recovered, the subsequent rewards you receive may be less, but the record of this incident will be firmly recorded in your file.

The details of the rewards can be discussed internally. Find me in the rest area outside afterward.

"Okay, Director Wang."

Luo Di was very respectful to Director Wang, knowing full well that the latter had been secretly helping him all along.

With Director Wang's departure,

The leaders who remained at the scene were all from Pluto City. Compared to Director Wang, they were not particularly concerned about pituitary resorption; they were more concerned about Luo Di.

Although Luo Di is currently a trainee investigator, his performance this time, the intervention from the capital, and the high-quality report provided by Yu Ze have all contributed to his success.

They estimated that Luo Di would soon be transferred to the capital.

In this way, their authorities have become nothing more than Transfer Station.

"Mr. Di, our authorities earnestly request that you stay here for a period of time, preferably until three months later, which is the shortest possible 'probationary period'."

With your experience and qualifications, you will certainly be able to become a formal investigator for our bureau.

Going to the capital as an official investigator will save you some unnecessary trouble.

Of course, we all know that time is very precious for someone as talented as you.

"As long as you are willing to stay here until you become a formal investigator, our authorities will give you the highest level of personal privilege."

Luo Di had always planned to stay here and had no intention of leaving.

He touched his nose with his finger, trying to control his facial expression.

"What kind of preferential treatment?"

"Apart from the privileges that formal investigators should enjoy,

You have the highest priority in the Archives Department and can commission investigations into anything within Pluto City. We will also provide maximum investigative support for any event you choose.

Your monthly expense reimbursement has been increased to three times the original amount.

Additionally, if you require pituitary modification, implantation, or injection, the City Research Bureau will fully cooperate.

"Hmm, is there any tangible reward? Like something related to the pituitary gland?"

Luo Di made no secret of what he wanted: if he could get the pituitary reward, he could use it to pay off his debts.

"According to regulations, investigators are generally not given irrelevant pituitary rewards directly."

Moreover, the pituitary glands that our authorities can reward are mostly taken from early-stage Pseudo-Human, at most mid-stage, and probably won't be of much practical help to you.

If Luo Di want to obtain high-quality pituitary glands, it is recommended that you handle the more challenging tasks and complete Pituitary Gland Recovery.

Pituitary glands obtained through personal execution are more efficient and more in accordance with regulations.

Luo Di, however, didn't seem to care. "It doesn't matter whether it's early or mid-stage pituitary tissue. How much can you give me?"

If there are enough people, I'd be willing to stay here indefinitely, even after becoming a full-fledged investigator.

"Well..."

The supervisor across from him suddenly raised his hand to signal to turn off all the monitoring and recording equipment in the current conference room, and he also lowered his voice.

"We have a lot of lower-grade pituitary glands here, and you should know where they come from."

However, even the lower pituitary gland has great research value and can greatly improve the survival rate of newly recruited trainee investigators, thus cultivating more talent.

This is the most we can give you..."

The supervisor opened his palms completely.

"Five?" Luo Di was a little surprised; he had thought two would be enough.

"The pituitary data needs to be stored in a database, and we can't remove too many. Five is the limit we can manage, but before giving it to you, we also need to know the purpose of these pituitary glands."

If you want to create various types of Corner-transforming item, you can directly connect with the Research Bureau here.

"I'm useful over there."

The executive's eyes lit up, and he quickly understood what Luo Di meant. "Over there... Oh! That's no problem at all. After the meeting, the shipment will be delivered to you in a packaged form. We'll try our best to select some that are older and of better quality, but it won't take more than six months."

"Thanks."

At the same time, a pre-contractual agreement was presented to Luo Di.

There were no hidden clauses or unfair terms on it; the Investigation Bureau showed great sincerity by listing all the preferential treatment they could offer.

Luo Di readily accepted, as mutual benefit and win-win situations are inherently a good thing.

But just as he put down his pen and signed his name,

When his eyes fell upon the thin, sharp pen tip,

A loud buzzing sound spread through my brain.

He froze instantly, even changing the way he held the pen.

The way he gripped the pen didn't look like he was signing a document, but rather like he was holding a weapon and about to stab someone; the pen tip was firmly embedded in the table.

Suddenly, Luo Di looked up at the supervisor opposite him, and a wave of heat filled the conference room.

A murderous intent surged forth.

Red Vein Through Eye,

The supervisors all became alert, and a certain energy within their bodies was rapidly mobilized.

But the next second, Luo Di shook his head violently to suppress his killing intent, and the bloodline running across his eyes gradually faded away.

"Excuse me..."

Luo Di quickly signed his name and handed over the contract.

The supervisor directly opposite asked with concern, "Are you alright? If you can't control your abilities, we can help. The records about Connectors mention this, so don't worry about it."

"It's nothing... I probably haven't been resting well since I've been in the hospital recently. I should be fine after a good night's sleep."

"Go back and get some rest. Contact me anytime if you have any questions."

As Luo Di left, the managers present exchanged glances and nodded.

After leaving the conference room, Luo Di immediately went to the restroom at the end of the corridor and kept washing his face with water.

He himself didn't know what was going on.

He had only glanced at the pen tip, but suddenly a surge of murderous urge welled up within him, making him want to kill all the supervisors in front of him to satisfy some strange desire.

The intensity of this desire was beyond imagination; he couldn't suppress it on his own and almost pounced on the nearest supervisor.

Fortunately, a voice rang in his ears at that moment, a voice he knew very well.

"Side effects of spinal surgery? Looks like we need to go to the Fifth Hospital as soon as possible. Let's go together later."

When Luo Di turned on the tap and looked up from between the sink.

Behind Luo Di, as reflected in the mirror, stood a Girl, smiling and making an OK sign.
