Otherworldly Affairs Office

In summary, everyone in the meeting room now guessed what Mu Fanchen intended to do. Yu Zhongmin, sitting on the sofa, broke into a cold sweat and muttered to himself, "Is this possible? Is this possible?"

It's no wonder he looked like this, openly attacking the heavily guarded Secret Prison to break someone out! Regardless of how hidden the Investigation Bureau and the Secret Prison were, after all, they were part of a government agency.

Such jailbreaks were only heard of during the unstable early days of the founding of the nation. But since he started working over twenty years ago, or even since he was born, he had never heard of such news.

An armed attack on a government agency is no different from rebellion! Has Shen Yu gone mad to such an extent! This matter must be taken seriously and reported immediately!

Thinking of this, Yu Zhongmin wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, turned to Pei Yan standing in the corner of the meeting room, and waved his hand: "Xiaopei, you can leave for now; there's nothing more for you here, what you discovered today is important, and the Bureau will take it seriously."

Pei Yan acknowledged, turned around, and smiled as he was about to leave the meeting room, but Gu Shenghui stopped him: "Stay, find a seat on the side." After that, he looked at Yu Zhongmin and said, "He already knows about this, so we can't hide it from him. Instead of making him sneak around to listen, it's better to let him listen openly."

Pei Yan found a corner to sit down, looking at Gu Shenghui sullenly and said, "Gu Chu, you know I wouldn't do that."

Having anticipated this, Gu Shenghui didn't even glance at him but turned to look at Prison Director Li and inquired, "Prison Director Li, do you think a plan like Mu Fanchen's could succeed?"

"It's hard to imagine. Even if he managed to infiltrate and disable the Teleportation Array, without support from our side, he would need at least one hundred and fifty first to third-rank power users to take down the Secret Prison. We have an emergency plan to mobilize reserve forces through teleportation at the first sign of attack. So, their plan would need twice that number, and at least six sixth-rank power users, just to deal with me, they would need to deploy a seventh rank power user or multiple sixth ranks. Can Shen Yu muster such strength?" Prison Director Li pondered for a moment before speaking slowly.

Pei Yan, listening from the side, couldn't help but marvel at the Secret Prison's hidden depths. He hadn't expected that this elder was a seventh-rank power user, the highest level he knew of so far, and he wondered if Elder Lin might be on par with him. If such a battle erupted, the battlefield might shake the earth and sky.

The elder's doubts also mirrored his own. Does Shen Yu really have such capability?

"We can't underestimate Shen Yu anymore. Judging from all the signs, they indeed have that capability!" Mei Simiao interjected.

After speaking, he couldn't help but recall Fu Rui, one of the suspected leaders of Shen Yu, captured not long ago. She was quite cooperative in revealing her whereabouts during the time she was missing. According to her description, she didn't mysteriously vanish from home; instead, she left openly, traveling along the way in her friend's RV, sharing multiple selfies taken at various scenic spots along the way, and provided her friend's contact to testify for her.

All these were later verified to be true, and the Investigation Bureau secretly used methods against her, violating regulations. Several psychic power users meticulously reviewed her memory records from this period, and everything corroborated her claims. Yet, this was strange, as footage of her disappearance still existed in the Bureau, but according to her memory, she left with her luggage.

She was detained for over a week, with her family relentlessly appealing online, making the Bureau and local police extremely passive. Eventually, with no evidence, she was released unconditionally, and a local police officer was even reprimanded for this.

This matter caused a huge uproar in the Investigation Bureau. Yu Zhongmin, showing solidarity, did not stand by idly, and the three of them took the blame together. Yet after the reprimand, the Bureau increased the surveillance on Fu Rui even more, with two consultants joining the surveillance team personally. To be played like this, the Bureau had to uncover the truth!

No matter how they act this time, by keeping a close watch on Fu Rui, something will be gained!

Just at this moment, Elder Lin's words interrupted his thoughts.

"Indeed, and this place is worth Shen Yu taking such a big risk!"

Everyone there looked at each other upon hearing this and nodded in agreement. Elder Lin wasn't wrong, as this prison held nearly two hundred power-user criminals.

Everyone also knew that Shen Yu's action wasn't to rescue those few low-level power users but to free the highest-ranked dozen held in the prison. These individuals were extremely vicious and dangerous, and among the older ones, they were detained when Elder Lin joined the office. The most formidable was from the same era as Director Cen Xiaoran. If released, they would cause chaos across the land!

Gu Shenghui took out a cigarette box, drew a cigarette, and said in a deep voice, "The question now is whether we should cut off their intentions right here or...?" He left the sentence unfinished, lighting the cigarette in his mouth.

Seeing no one respond, Pei Yan, sitting in the corner, timidly said, "Or set up a trap to lure them in and catch them all at once!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Shenghui turned slightly and glanced at Pei Yan. After careful consideration, Yu Zhongmin said, "Too risky. This place is too important to use as a test. If a problem arises, it will be a significant issue!"

"But this time, we've accidentally gained an edge. If we spook them now, it will be far more challenging to get another opportunity to strike Shen Yu as effectively." Gu Shenghui didn't rush to refute Yu Zhongmin's argument, as he also understood the latter's concerns were genuine.

Yu Zhongmin nodded in acknowledgment, "You're right too. If Shen Yu dares to attack here, it shows their ambition has swelled tremendously. Such a large-scale attack means Shen Yu is certainly going all out. If we seize this chance, we can deliver a heavy blow to them, stabilizing the domestic situation for a while."

At this point, he turned to Mei Simiao and asked, "How about we transfer those inmates with signal devices to another place to ambush, since the Secret Prison is always in a state of movement? As long as it's discreet, it shouldn't catch their attention!"

As soon as Yu Zhongmin finished speaking, Gu Shenghui shook his head in refusal, "No, Mu Fanchen has been in the Bureau, and he's been here more than once. If it's him, he'll definitely send someone to infiltrate first. If they find something's wrong with the environment, the follow-up assault team won't fall into the trap!"
