"Yichen..." Sun Kai couldn't help speaking up. "Let me make this clear first. It's not that we're scared, but why should we go check out this 'Bureau 749' you mentioned? There's really no need."
"Yeah... Sun Kai has a point." Yang Weifeng and Zhang Yong nodded furiously beside him.
"Then... do you guys want to become officers?" Li Yichen asked in a tantalizing voice.
"Officers?" The three froze, then asked incredulously, "How did this suddenly turn into becoming officers?"

"Are you serious?" the three asked
