However, Wenren Sheng's suggestion was rejected by the Patrol Division.
"We can't do that, because the consequences might draw opponents with deep hostility, making matters even worse." Inspector Liu gave his answer.

"Interesting. Looks like someone on the ship is pulling another prank. If he has that much free time, his computing allocation should be cut."
"It doesn't seem like a
