Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Charges (1)_1

Situ Xin looked at the anxious expression on Old Deng’s face and comforted him, "Grandpa Deng, don’t worry. Do you really not trust my abilities? Even if you don’t trust my abilities, you should trust your own judgment of character. I am the one you chose personally." Speaking with these elders eased the gloomy mood that had set in because of the Zhou Anbang incident.

"You girl, always so cheeky. Hurry up and tell us, what exactly did you call us here for?" Old Deng was still worried about The Dark Division’s matters and urged her on.

Situ Xin didn’t beat around the bush, and there were some things regarding The Dark Division that she would not conceal from the elders. "Yesterday, the Leader above us assigned a mission to The Dark Division, demanding that we retrieve certain documents from Zhou Anbang, then find an opportunity to stage an accident to make Zhou Anbang disappear." Situ Xin was still cautious with her words.

"Such matters are not within The Dark Division’s purview," Old Deng said with a frown. Even though Situ Xin had not spelled it out, the action from above made all the elders frown, obviously guessing the Leader’s motives.

"What do you plan to do then?" Old Master Xiao asked Situ Xin with a worried look.

"It’s not what I plan to do, but what I’ve already instructed. Here, these are the pieces of evidence of Zhou Anbang’s violations and misconducts I had them gather yesterday." Situ Xin handed the documents she held to the elders.

Old Deng was the first to take the documents from Situ Xin, and after finishing the first page, his complexion darkened instantly. He pursed his lips tightly and continued to read. But before he could finish the second page, Old Deng closed the document, saying, "Beast, he’s truly a scourge upon the nation."

Seeing that Old Deng had closed the document with a grim expression, Old Master Situ took it from his hands, with Old Master Loo and Old Master Xiao moving closer to see what was in the document that had angered Old Deng so much.

"Xiao Xin, how are you going to handle this matter?" Old Deng asked after composing himself for a while.

"I plan to follow the instructions from above and find the documents from Zhou Anbang. Then I’ll pass these documents to the Discipline Inspection Committee. I believe the officials there should know what to do. Additionally, I fear that some among the Discipline Inspection Committee may be in league with Zhou Anbang, so I’ve had The Dark Division make several copies of this evidence to be placed on the desks of significant leaders within the committee. I simply refuse to believe they all have ties to Zhou Anbang. If that’s indeed the case, then I must accept it and take action myself. Under no circumstances will I let such scum harm the public."

After Situ Xin finished speaking, Old Master Situ said with fury in his eyes, "Zhou Anbang is not a human being. Baby, such a person must not be spared lightly."

Old Deng nodded in agreement with Situ Xin’s plan. "Yes, your plan is very good." In Old Deng’s view, Situ Xin’s plan was the best possible. It not only fulfilled the mission given by the authorities above but also sent a message that Situ Xin could not be easily manipulated while simultaneously dealing with the dregs like Zhou Anbang.

"Then, Grandpa Deng, the document that the Leader wants us to find, do I need to show it to you after obtaining it?" Situ Xin asked.

"No need. Grandpa Deng trusts you; handle it yourself." As he spoke, Old Deng felt greatly relieved. He had finally found a successor to his liking before closing his eyes forever.

After discussing the matter with Old Deng, Old Master Situ, Old Master Loo, and Old Master Xiao were the only ones left going through the documents. They were so infuriated that they cursed Zhou Anbang from head to toe.

That evening, when the fully equipped members of The Dark Division tasked with the mission were preparing to set out, Situ Xin, riding on Baibai, appeared at The Dark Division.

Xiang Yang, Mei, Wu Qing, and others, despite their strong resilience, were shocked to see Situ Xin descending from the sky on a huge White Tiger, their mouths agape for a long time without recovering their composure.

"Leader, is this, what is this..." Mei couldn’t articulate a complete sentence even after a long while. And indeed, not only was it surprising to see someone riding on a tiger’s back, but it was also a flying tiger, which was truly astonishing.

"Stop wondering. Let me introduce you to Baibai, my partner. It’s a gift from my master," Situ Xin finally dragged her enigmatic master into the conversation.

Xiang Yang was the first to snap out of his amazement. Although he was surprised, he rationalized the Ancient Martial Arts techniques and the Marrow Cleansing Pills that Situ Xin had given them.

"Leader, why have you come?" Xiang Yang managed to compose himself and asked.

Situ Xin didn’t express her worries, as that would undermine the confidence of the members of The Dark Division. "This is my first mission since taking over The Dark Division; of course, I have to be present." As she spoke, Situ Xin remembered she had forgotten to hand over an item. "Oh, right, take this with you."

"What is this?" Wu Qing took the small box handed over by Situ Xin and inspected it, asking curiously.

"Oh, this is a jamming device. I’ve modified it to interfere with some hidden cameras. But still, you’ll need to be careful." This was a jamming device that Situ Xin had researched for a long time in her space.

Xiang Yang and the others hadn’t expected such a small gadget to have such a big effect.

"Alright, let’s set off," Situ Xin announced as it was almost time to depart.

Mei, Wu Qing, and Xing headed to the Political Commissar’s office building. Situ Muli and Xiang Yang were tasked with retrieving documents from Zhou Anbang, and Situ Xin was to join Situ Muli and Xiang Yang.

The documents were kept in the safe of Zhou Anbang’s study at his residence.

It was unclear whether Zhou Anbang was too confident or the documents were too well-hidden, but there was not a single security device in Zhou Anbang’s study.

Situ Muli and Xiang Yang, evidently trained professionals, entered Zhou Anbang’s study, located the safe quickly, and opened it with ease. During this time, Situ Xin did not need to lift a finger; she just sat on Baibai and watched them work.
