Chapter 786: Chapter 786 Must Be Controlled_1

"So this is Professor Chen’s granddaughter," Lian Hongyi nodded, his gaze toward Chen Donglai brimming with respect. "I know you, I’ve always held great respect for scholars like you who make contributions to the country."

"Thank you, Ning Fan is an old friend of mine; I’ve witnessed the matter with the He Family and the Martial Alliance," Chen Donglai tried to explain on Ning Fan’s behalf. "Everything he did was in rightful defense."

However, even with Chen Donglai’s intervention, Lian Hongyi still refused to release the person.

"Professor Chen, we’ll investigate the specifics of the matter. If there are no issues, we’ll make arrangements for him," he said before leaving.

Before leaving, Lian Hongyi hesitated for a moment before speaking in a low voice, "Professor Chen, I have to say that your friend poses a rather high level of danger. I fear that even if his actions were in rightful defense, he would still be subject to our management afterward."

Dragon Group did not act out of personal interest or seek private revenge; everything they did was to maintain the stability of Capital City.

If the investigation clarified that Ning Fan had indeed acted in rightful defense, the Dragon Group would still not be at ease considering that he had eradicated the Martial Alliance and the He Family.

Such a person walking around Capital City was like a ticking time bomb—who knew when it would explode?

The best solution was to have the Dragon Group hold the detonator in its grasp.

Helpless, Chen Yi and the others could only watch as the Dragon Group took Ning Fan away.

"Dismiss!"

After capturing Ning Fan, Lian Hongyi immediately led his troops back to the military base without delay.

Subsequently, a fierce discussion ensued.

"Chief, the target’s strength is too formidable; we absolutely cannot let him go free," one member argued.

"Today, he was able to wipe out two major forces just because the Martial Alliance and the He Family offended him.

"What if other families or forces provoke him tomorrow? What if it is an official department that angers him?"

"If he handles it like he did today, who else would be able to control him?"

Deputy chief Huo Qiu firmly believed that Ning Fan was a walking bomb... no, a humanoid nuclear weapon.

Although he had not personally witnessed Ning Fan’s strength, the surveillance cameras had unintentionally captured Ning Fan fighting when the He Family and Martial Alliance were being destroyed.

What was shown in the footage completely overturned Huo Qiu’s perception of the human limit.

If even the Martial Alliance Hierarch Zuo Hanyue was defeated, who else could be Ning Fan’s opponent?

For the sake of security, Huo Qiu adamantly requested containment measures for Ning Fan.

Lian Hongyi, however, was undecided. "But doing this is undoubtedly an infringement of his personal freedom."

Confronted by Lian Hongyi’s rebuttal, Huo Qiu countered with a statement that stopped him in his tracks.

"Chief, if we don’t implement any control measures, and if he regains his power and becomes uncontrollable, do we have anyone who can handle him?"

On hearing this, everyone fell into silence.

They could tell that Ning Fan was in a state of exhaustion; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to apprehend him so easily.

Huo Qiu’s question left Lian Hongyi without any convincing counterarguments.

This was the rationale of trusting someone with a nuclear weapon not to launch it versus keeping the nuclear weapon in one’s own hands.

Nearly ninety-nine percent of people would not choose the former.

After all, nobody wants their life and death to be controlled by others.

Due to Mu Wanqing’s earlier incident, Lian Hongyi did not have her attend this meeting.

The other team members, having heard Huo Qiu’s analysis, also started discussing among themselves.

"It seems to make sense."

"There’s no choice, after all, the guy’s strength is too great."

"If we don’t impose restrictions, it will be too difficult to catch him again in the future."

They had all seen the traces outside the villa; such a scene was not something an ordinary person could create.

Even they, members of the Dragon Group who had undergone chemical enhancement, couldn’t produce such an exaggerated scene.

Lian Hongyi stood up and said, "In that case, let’s decide by a vote. Those who believe we should impose restrictions on him, please raise your hand."

The members looked at each other before Huo Qiu raised his hand first, followed by a second, a third...

Quickly, all hands were raised except for Lian Hongyi’s own.

"Are you all in agreement?" Lian Hongyi asked, somewhat taken aback.

A team member said with a wry smile, "Chief, you don’t know, when we went up to catch that guy just now, we personally felt his power."

"Yes, it took several of us working together to subdue him," another team member added with a look of helplessness. "If he recovers, I fear no one here will be able to control him."

The other members echoed this sentiment, confirming Ning Fan’s extraordinary ability.

Seeing this, Lian Hongyi had no choice but to agree with Huo Qiu’s proposal: "Alright, then let’s install a controller on him."

Huo Qiu nodded, his voice grave, "If we can make him work for us, this may not be a bad thing."

Lian Hongyi nodded in agreement, aware of Ning Fan’s formidable strength.

If they could make such a powerful individual serve the Dragon Group, it would make their future missions much easier.

Soon, the small device for control was brought to the meeting room.

Just at that moment, Mu Wanqing suddenly barged in.
