Come to think of it, communicating with Professor Lan Zhu, especially about psychological issues like this, was, strictly speaking, equivalent to talking to the system.
Rationally, Ronan knew that was true, but he did not like the thought.
Nor did he want to keep talking about things like "proving oneself proactively," so he deliberately changed the subject. "Professor, Field Officer Wang Zhen doesn't seem to have mentioned the First Awareness Society?"
When Ronan had visited the Chang Ying before, whether the First Awareness Society was mentioned had not mattered much. But over the past two days, information about the First Awareness Society had become highly sensitive and important, with direct and indirect ties to the Dream Divine Abomination. Neither Field Officer Wang Zhen nor Professor Lan Zhu had brought it up during the previous small-scale meeting, which seemed rather inappropriate.
Of course, Ronan had only singled out Field Officer Wang Zhen.
But Professor Lan Zhu could guess what Ronan was thinking. He smiled. "You mean the matter of Great Lord Rong Chu? You've become quite well-informed since joining the First Bureau."
"Yes, the office has already notified us."
So this was no rumor, but intelligence conveyed through official military channels.
This intelligence had clearance restrictions and had only been passed down to officers of field officer rank and above. But there were no ranks below that in the First Bureau Executive Office. For convenience, Field Officer Gong Shenmang had specifically applied for temporary clearance for Ronan, allowing him to learn the relevant details.
The intelligence had come from the Inner Battlefield.
Earlier, Great Lord Rong Chu had been afflicted by the Dawn Blood Curse. After review and investigation, it had been confirmed that the culprit was an insider planted by the First Awareness Society within the military.
Well, that was
