On the outskirts of Extreme North City...
The patrol team, Lan Meng Squad, found several people near the edge of Extreme North City who were trying to smuggle information about the Spirit Pagoda to the outside world.
Lan Meng Squad caught four people in all.
One had a face full of pockmarks, one was well dressed and did not look like an ordinary person, one was a burly man, and the last was a young boy with blue hair.
"Take them all away."
After making sure no one had been missed, Lan Meng waved to the people behind her. Several patrol members immediately stepped forward to escort the four away.
The blue-haired boy opened his mouth, about to explain.
His record was spotless. There was no way he could be smuggling information!
"No, Officer, everyone knows my record here is spotless! Besides, I can't even read! How could I possibly steal confidential information from the Spirit Pagoda? Someone must have framed me!"
The pockmarked young man dropped to his knees and cried out in protest as soon as he saw he was about to be arrested. He sounded utterly sincere, and his eyes had even reddened, as though tears might spill from them at any moment.
It was almost as if he really had done nothing wrong.
"Whether your record is spotless isn't my concern. Take him away. If he truly can't read, have the literacy office give him a proper welcome."
Lan Meng glanced at him without a trace of expression. She was on patrol and was only responsible for making arrests. Questions about his identity were not her concern.
And if he really was illiterate, she might as well send him to the literacy office for a proper welcome.
The literacy program had been running for so long
