Back then, when he saved Cheng Ye from being killed by people who offended Cheng Long from the Inner City factions, he didn't think much of it.

He was merely following the regulations of the inspection station, demonstrating that the station would protect the offspring of any inspector. Even if they had to die, it would be within the station, never allowing interference from Inner City factions.

Moreover, it would allow him to die on duty, freeing up a position for Chuan, so he wouldn't have to push Chuan up the ranks directly and leave room for gossip.

But this world is just so absurd.

This useless person walked out of the high walls and suddenly became a rookie inspector, with assessment scores second only to Harlem.

And his originally weak combat skills, which even Harlem didn't see as a threat, showed significant improvement after he went to the North Inspection Station, even attracting an olive branch from the Westerners.

This put him in a passive position where he couldn't make his move, now stuck in between, feeling utterly uncomfortable.

And this damned world seems to develop in the opposite direction of what he anticipates the more he resists it.

An intern inspector, no matter how strong, was first trained for two and a half years in the Pioneer Corps, then climbed up step by step amid factional struggles at the station, taking over five years.

But Cheng Ye is more outrageous than his father and grandfather.

At today's meeting, he felt uneasy hearing this name.

Even Liu Kun mentioned him. Could it be that the Cheng Family is destined to doom the inspection station, to doom him, Ding Yishan?

Thinking about this, Ding Yishan was stunned for a moment and suddenly spoke: "Chuan."

"Here."

"Last time, I told you to test Cheng Ye, did you go?"

"Not yet, sir. Didn't you say to wait until he went to the South Inspection Station, then find an opportunity to try?"

"Did I say that?"

Ding Yishan was dazed for a moment, then asked, "Where is he now? Did anything happen during the infection wave?"

"No, all inspectors have filed their information, no casualties... sir, please wait a moment, I'll check."

Chuan pulled out the Defense Communication and quickly found the information with his fast fingers, "Chief Cheng applied for medical treatment an hour ago. Here are the injury photos he took, would you like to see them?"

"Bring it here."

Ding Yishan took the Defense Communication, glanced at the screen, and his eyebrows immediately raised, slightly startled.

The background in the photo was not unfamiliar; it was Liu Bi's home.

Cheng Ye's upper body was bare, and there was hardly any unscarred skin, with bruises spreading all the way to his waist, indicating that the injuries on his legs were probably not light.

"What did he do to get hurt like this, even Garcia wasn't this injured?"

"It's different; this should be just flesh wounds. Garcia was hit with internal injuries by Inspector Liu, which look less severe but are actually more troublesome."

Being skilled in martial arts, Chuan could naturally tell the difference at a glance, "Besides, Chief Cheng has yet to report his actions during the infection wave, but we recorded that his Defense Communication had contact with the Inner City... it was the command center."

"The command center?"

Ding Yishan was surprised for a moment, "What could he, an intern inspector, be doing contacting the command center?"

"Yes, the call records have been retrieved, but the specifics of the conversation... the station doesn't have the authority to access, should I apply to see if it's approved?"

"Hmm..."

Ding Yishan hesitated slightly, eventually shaking his head, "Forget it, the command center involves too much, it would be embarrassing to be refused. You said he applied for medical treatment?"

"Yes, the process has reached Station Chief Harlem and has already been approved, now just waiting for your approval."

"Approve it, and by the way..."

Ding Yishan paused and added, "Transfer him to the clinic where Garcia is staying, place them in adjacent rooms, and have someone record what they say and do... if they fight, Garcia is Second-Phase, Cheng Ye is not his match, but as long as there're no fatalities, don't stop anything from happening."

"Yes!"

"Also, later go to the area where Cheng Ye is staying to investigate discreetly. Don't let anyone else at the station know, see if you can find out what he's been up to, and once he's hospitalized, we'll be the first to visit him."

"Understood."

Chuan agreed once again, his tone slightly more cheerful.

Noticing his cheerfulness, Ding Yishan paused and couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Chuan, it seems the matter of you becoming an inspector will be delayed again."

"Sir, I truly don't want to become an inspector; I just want to work for you for the rest of my life."

Chuan smiled happily, "I have none of the skills needed to be an inspector, and even if I became one, I'd just be caught in the vortex of power struggles like everyone else. Now that someone is helping to shoulder this burden, I couldn't ask for more."

"You..."

Ding Yishan first let out a long sigh, then heavily exhaled another.

Indeed.

What is lacking now isn't people cunning at scheming, but those who can truly focus on getting things done.

Internally, to block the infected bodies, one must have the strength to carry the banner of the younger generation of inspectors.

Externally, to expand settlements and Shelter Cities, bringing in additional revenue for the inspection station, assisting with equipment updates, facility repairs, and accumulating funds for activities.

But such individuals, from the founding of the inspection station to today, only countable on two hands at best.

To really place this burden on an intern inspector, is it possible?

It's completely just his wishful thinking.

...

Noon.

After another tasteless meal of boiled cabbage, Cheng Ye quickly walked out of the chemical plant complex.

The information learned from Luo Xiaoxue was immense.

"No wonder Ding Yishan transferred me to the quick station, and Brother B didn't stop him. Strictly speaking...

"The Cheng Family owes the inspection station too much!"
