"This is how it is; the thing about recruiting undercover agents for the Zhenqin Corps is top secret in the Military Department!"

"Lu Feng, if you don't want to go, I won't force you. But if the information leaks from you, I might personally kill you; this involves the Divine Land's military secrets."

Wang Lu Feng waited for Wang Nanguo.

The father and son didn't go far; they found a small park nearby.

Wang Lu Feng looked at some white hair on Wang Nanguo's head, feeling a pang of heartache.

It's only been a few days since they last met, and Wang Nanguo's eyes were sunken, his complexion waxy yellow, indescribably haggard, and he had visibly lost weight.

"Dad, this isn't your responsibility alone."

Wang Lu Feng's pupils were red, his throat choked with emotion.

Admiral's Mansion, Governor's Mansion, both knew about this operation.

This guilt and remorse shouldn't be borne by the Investigation and Arrest Bureau, nor by Wang Nanguo alone.

Whether or not to be a spy is another matter.

Wang Lu Feng felt it unfair.

Truly unfair.

"Lu Feng, do you understand the Investigation and Arrest Bureau?"

Suddenly, Wang Nanguo looked at his son and smiled.

"Maintaining basic social order, dealing with trifling matters. In the eyes of most martial artists, skill is mediocre, salary is average, status is neither high nor low, a stable job, so things get pushed aside. Among the seven major corps of the Warring States, they generally don't regard the Investigation and Arrest Bureau highly."

"That's roughly it. If it were me, I would certainly not go to the Investigation and Arrest Bureau. I would choose the Military Department."

"Also, some people exploit their positions, take bribes, bully civilians, and it doesn't have a good reputation."

Wang Lu Feng didn't hold back.

This was his direct impression.

In the end.

Honestly, among martial artists, some look down on the Investigation and Arrest Bureau;

No matter if it's sacrifice, martial artists are proud to sacrifice in the Military Department, to sacrifice in the Wetlands.

The Investigation and Arrest Bureau.

It's generally a place where B-class Wuda graduates go;

It's also a haven for Qi and Blood Martial Artists, a paradise to escape Wetland service.

Of course, the Investigation and Arrest Bureau's merits can't be denied; some departments are indeed very tough and tedious.

"You're right."

"Couldn't catch a big thief, couldn't kill a strong enemy, every day it's just trivial matters."

"Even business disputes need the Investigation and Arrest Bureau's involvement, ultimately getting a bad name."

"Hence, every Investigation and Arrest Bureau chief in the Divine Land wants to accomplish something to prove their worth, to restore the name of the Investigation and Arrest Bureau."

"We're all too eager for success, too keen to show off."

"You're right, this isn't just my fault; the Admiral, Governor all bear some negligence... but I feel guilty for the brothers captured, my remorse lies in my own incompetence, in doing nothing."

"The saddest thing is, societal perceptions aren't baseless. What the Investigation and Arrest Bureau can do is when a person is dead, the villain has succeeded, then we flash the police lights, do the post-mortem, write a report..."

"I'm so incompetent."

Wang Nanguo's voice was very weary.

"Dad, I'm sorry, I spoke harshly; the trivialities of the Investigation and Arrest Bureau aren't something ordinary people can handle, I'm sorry."

"By the way, Dad, according to the Zhenqin Corps' thinking, if Wuda suddenly lacks a top martial artist, won't the Yangxiang Sect investigate? After all, there aren't many top-ranking high school graduates."

Wang Lu Feng apologized but didn't want to dwell too much on this, the more they talked, the more depressed he felt, so he changed the subject.

"The Zhenqin Corps will cooperate with each Wuda to create reasonable disappearance motives; besides, there are very few undercover students, Yangxiang Sect is merely a cult, they're not omnipotent."

"These undercover students will undergo some disguise training, appear with a completely new look, even have their appearance altered by the Research Institute's potion, Yangxiang Sect won't associate it with students."

Wang Nanguo explained.

"What exactly is the task?"

Wang Lu Feng frowned.

Wang Nanguo only mentioned danger but didn't bring up the details of the task.

"I don't know."

"The task is related to the Zhenqin Corps' plan; aside from the Governor, no one has the right to know."

Wang Nanguo said.

"Dad, help me sign up, I'll go."

Wang Lu Feng suddenly stood up.

Upon hearing this, Wang Nanguo looked up in surprise at his son.

"You can consider it overnight, this is an undercover task, unlike fighting in the Wetlands."

"If you encounter an accident, the cause of death might just be accidental, you won't even receive a hero's title."

"I won't force you, even if you don't go, I won't blame you."

"This isn't a matter of impulse."

Wang Nanguo said.

In a flash, he suddenly felt Wang Lu Feng had grown up.

"Dad, I understand what you mean."

"I used to look down on the Investigation and Arrest Bureau, even loathed the Investigation and Arrest Bureau, I felt the work was just loafing around, catching a thief, just imprison them for ten years, yet there'd be piles of paperwork, only for a 15-day detention in the end."

"I yearn for the heroism of sacrificing my life for the country, I went to the Wetlands, and I felt even more that the Wetlands is the battlefield for men. Even if I die, it's for the Divine Land behind me."

"This time I agree to be a spy, not for the country, not for glory, and certainly not for the Investigation and Arrest Bureau."

Wang Lu Feng solemnly looked at Wang Nanguo:

"This time, it's for my father."

"You've always been concerned with restoring the name of the Investigation and Arrest Bureau, it's your attachment."

"But I, I want to restore my father's name. Even if he's been average all his life, at least he has an impressive son, he can be proud once."

"If possible, I'll find a way to save your comrades..."

Wang Lu Feng smiled and nodded.
