Chapter 118: I’m Going To Report You To The Central Hub!
“Really going down to the Demon Realm?”
Seeing Li Ye’s firm attitude, Fan Tie said: “If you’re not leaving, that’s fine, but entering the Demon Realm—I think we can delay that until the main force arrives.”
“Even when they arrive, someone still has to go down.”
Li Ye interjected: “Rather than letting soldiers lose their lives, better to have these people who’ve enjoyed plenty of benefits make a contribution. Let them experience what it’s like to have someone carrying the heavy load ahead for them.”
“Look at them yourself.”
He pointed at these martial artists who were frantically annihilating demonic creatures like donkeys whipped into action. “How can things go well with this bunch of parasites around! Demon creature environment!”
“First off, let me state clearly: I, representing the troops holding the pollution line this time, fully respect your opinion and obey your orders. But from a personal standpoint—”
Fan Tie pursed his lips and said: “If you kill them all, it won’t look good for you. Some things aren’t what they seem on the surface. These martial artists exist for a reason, but the deeper reasons are beyond our level to know.”
“You say you don’t know, so why should I care? I only look at what’s right in front of me.”
Li Ye rolled his eyes. “Besides, what am I? I’m Disinfection Bureau. I don’t need higher-up instructions or orders. No rules!”
He sneered. “And you’re already thinking of sending me back to be a good boy. So what if there’s influence—what can they do to me?”
Geniuses deserve genius treatment.
As long as he can beat others, those crooked winds and perverse fires will naturally have matching opponents to block for him!
“No one to risk their lives exterminating demons, but all show up for power struggles. If a few don’t die, they’ll think we’re serving them.”
Li Ye tsked. “They’ve just been eating too well lately, getting cocky and forgetting themselves. Time to straighten them out, so they know what’s good for them.”
“Correction: They don’t know what’s good about your Disinfection Bureau. Don’t lump me in—outsiders might think the military’s getting bullied too.”
Fan Tie said: “We just don’t handle this area. We’re purely watching your Disinfection Bureau perform. In our eyes, these people aren’t much different.”
Strong?
How many weapons can they withstand?
Martial artists at this level are far from qualified.
They truly throw heavy fists.
And they’ve always been very stable.
Unlike Disinfection Bureau—when super god mode, even the military respects their opinion.
When super ghost mode, they sit at the same table as roadside dogs.
“So?” Li Ye looked over.
“So in principle, I think doing this might not benefit you. But right now, you’re the principle. We’ll follow your lead.” Fan Tie shrugged.
Current Li Ye was in super god state.
“Then send them all in.”
Li Ye smiled and said, suddenly sensing something. He looked into the distance and said gravely: “Especially certain people who’ve lost all face—stuff them in together.”
Just as he finished speaking, a group of people approached from afar.
It was precisely the Chen Family members named to go to the Demon Realm, plus the sixteen resigned Disinfection Officers they brought, and one man dressed in the same uniform as Li Ye, also wearing a cap.
“Bureau Chief Li.”
The man hurried forward and extended his hand. “Really sorry, I was delayed by demonic creature matters. I just now learned what happened, and that we needed help from a sister agency—truly ashamed.”
Bang!
In the next instant, the man’s abdomen hunched back as he bent over and dry-heaved.
Li Ye appeared in front of him, fist withdrawing and flipping up to knock off the cap on his head.
“You’re second into the Demon Realm. You don’t deserve to wear this cap.”
Li Ye didn’t even glance at him and turned to the sixteen. “Which two are the deputy bureau chiefs?”
“Li Ye! You have no authority over us! We’re Jinze City’s Disinfection Bureau!”
A middle-aged man couldn’t hold back and shouted: “Demon Realm matters aren’t our jurisdiction anyway—always been the military’s. We have the right to choose whether to help or not. Everyone sticks to their duties!”
“Have you stuck to your duties then?”
Li Ye glanced at him. “Jinze City’s demonic creatures are all but out of control, so where were you people?”
“Resigning is our freedom! Disinfection Bureau has no rules on that!”
Another man who seemed to be a deputy bureau chief shouted: “We just happened to arrive together by coincidence. We didn’t know the Demon Realm had appeared or that the demonic creatures weren’t contained. And now we’re just civilian martial artists—no mobilization order—so we’re doing nothing!”
“Civilian martial artists? Civilian martial artists are great.”
Li Ye laughed and beckoned. “Bai Rongzu, bring the stuff over.”
“Coming!”
Bai Rongzu rushed over carrying a small bag, holding it up respectfully.
Li Ye reached into the bag and tossed a demonic creature fragment toward them. “Now I suspect you of colluding with demonic creatures. Go to the Demon Realm to prove your innocence—or if not, you’re in league with them.”
As soon as the fragment appeared, everyone froze. That fragment looked exactly like the demonic creature fragments they’d seen along the way.
What kind of stunt was this?
When the Chen Family found them, they’d thought it was just a formality walk around the Demon Realm outskirts—after all, peer agencies couldn’t control them.
Not even Ningjiang’s Li Longhu could.
But instead, unprovoked frame-up right off the bat, with such a crude method—at least use a different fragment!
Too bullying!
“Farewell!”
The deputy bureau chief who’d spoken first cupped his hands and turned to leave.
Thump!
But as he just turned, his back took a heavy blow, like being hit by a shotgun blast at close range. He flew straight out and crashed heavily to the ground.
Li Ye glared at him, then in the next instant became a blur and appeared in front of the man.
He grabbed the man’s hair, hauled him up, took a photo with his mobile phone and sent it to Zhong Chang. In just three seconds, the whole family’s information came back.
“You think I’m playing some procedural justice game with you?”
Li Ye shoved the mobile phone in front of his eyes. “You don’t go in, your whole family does. This young one’s your daughter, right? Still in Yangcheng. Four hours to get here. I’ll break your legs first, then pick up your daughter to go in your place. Good?”
The man coughed up several mouthfuls of blood and cried out in terror: “This is a threat! Extortion! I’ll report you to the Provincial Department, to the central hub!”
“Don’t have the central hub’s number, but I do have Provincial Department’s.”
Li Ye swiped a few times on the mobile phone, dialed Director Wang’s number, and turned on speaker.
Soon, it connected, and Director Wang’s serious voice came through: “Little Ye, what’s the situation? If you’re in danger, withdraw first—don’t worry about it for now. We’re short-handed too.”
“No danger, Grandpa Wang. Just ran into Jinze Disinfection Bureau’s deputy bureau chief. He wants to report to Provincial Department, so I’m calling you.” Li Ye laughed.
“Handle that kind of small matter yourself. Prioritize the Demon Realm right now—don’t let it spread. Whatever else you do is fine.”
Director Wang’s tone clearly relaxed. “Right, let me emphasize again: Disinfection Bureau has no rules.”
“Got it, Grandpa Wang.”
Li Ye hung up and shook the mobile phone at the deputy bureau chief. “Heard that? Now you have three seconds. Choose yourself.”
“I—”
“One.”
“Isn’t it three seconds?!”
The man’s eyes bulged as he roared: “I’ll go! I’ll go right now!”
Li Ye released his head and looked at the others. “What about you?”
Stared at by his eyes, no one dared meet them directly, just lowering their heads in silence.
“That’s agreement then.”
Li Ye pocketed the mobile phone and shook his head: “If you weren’t leaving and were still handling demonic creatures in the city, I wouldn’t do this. You took up this job but don’t want to work, just enjoy the perks—there’s no such reason in the world.”
“And you, big bureau chief.”
He looked at Jinze City Disinfection Bureau Chief, who was recovering. “Do I need to invite your whole family over too?”
“Bureau Chief Li, we have our difficulties too.”
He gasped a few breaths, clutching his stomach and complaining: “Chen Family promised us we just needed to disappear for a while—no impact on ordinary people.”
“What does that have to do with me? We’re peers.”
Li Ye said indifferently: “Besides, if Jinze’s Chen Family can threaten you, Ningjiang’s families can too. All the same.”
“Right, it was Ningjiang’s Bai Family threatening me.”
Bai Rongzu raised his head. “Now the one dealing with your whole family is me! Don’t go to Demon Realm, and I’ll go after your family!”
“See? You heard it.”
Li Ye spread his hands. “How do you choose now?”
“I’ll go!”
The bureau chief gritted his teeth: “But Chen Family…”
“They’re behind you.” Li Ye said: “They won’t get away.”
He had no interest in hearing about difficulties.
If all Shenzhou’s Disinfection Bureaus were like this, fine—they’d be disbanded eventually.
The key was some were still holding on.
Ningjiang City had Huang Qingyi, pushed so hard by Ren Family, yet still holding the line.
Jinze City had lost ten truly qualified Disinfection Officers already, plus Zhong Chang the Information Section Chief and all the Information Officers still at their posts.
That made it completely different.
Martial artists overpower Disinfection Bureau, Disinfection Bureau overpowers martial artists—just like that.
But win big and act high-profile, lose and bow your head to work.
But at critical moments, scheming with those martial artists on plans and plots…
That required paying a price.
Nap time, one more chapter tonight.
