"In the Special Agent Bureau, who knows how many small tricks he’s been up to!"
"Xina, don’t let him fool you..."
Xina’s mother nodded in agreement nearby.
Then!
Xina’s parents began persuading her to return home and live a stable life:
"The country will provide us with material support, let’s just go back! We really can’t rest easy with you running around outside all the time..."
Xina’s mother held Xina’s hand, her eyes full of worry and expectation.
Listening to her parents, Xina fell into silence, a hint of struggle in her eyes.
Lin Lang, however, calmly said from the side:
"Harrison went through so much trouble to bring Xina back, not to let her retire early..."
Upon hearing this.
Xina and her parents were all silent.
Because they all knew that Lin Lang was right!
...
Not long after!
In the spacious and bright hall of the Special Agent Bureau, the atmosphere was warm and noisy.
Harrison, dressed in a crisp suit, stood on the stage with his head held high, scanning everyone below with a confident smile on his face.
At this moment!
He was about to announce a major piece of news, and the entire hall instantly quieted down, everyone held their breath, waiting for him to speak.
"Ladies and gentlemen!"
Harrison’s voice spread through the hall via the amplifier, strong and powerful,
"Today, we have come to an important moment! Xina, this outstanding agent who has made significant contributions to our Special Agent Bureau, has returned triumphantly from the distant Eastern Country!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of enthusiastic applause and cheers erupted from below the stage.
"Not only that!"
Harrison paused slightly, a gleam of pride in his eyes!
"Mr. Lin Lang from the Eastern Country has also stood by our side! He can solve many problems for us and is undoubtedly our ally!"
Saying this, he turned and raised his hand, pointing to Lin Lang standing nearby, his face full of approving smiles!
Then!
He began to effusively praise Lin Lang, portraying him as an extraordinarily powerful, righteous and kind-hearted hero!
Aiming to firmly establish Lin Lang as an ally in everyone’s minds.
The agents below were moved, cheers rose one after another, louder and louder!
It was evident how popular Harrison was within the Special Agent Bureau.
...
Meanwhile, Brick, standing in the corner, looked increasingly gloomy.
He clenched his teeth tightly, his hands unconsciously forming fists, filled with anger and reluctance.
Lin Lang being portrayed as an ally made him feel extremely challenged.
He knew very well that if he targeted Lin Lang again, he might be accused of disrupting internal unity, which would be very disadvantageous to him.
However!
Harrison’s plan didn’t stop there...
After the cheers gradually subsided, he cleared his throat again and raised his voice to announce:
"Considering everything Xina and her family have done for us! I have decided..."
"To allow Xina to take her parents home to retire and provide them with the best treatment the Special Agent Bureau can offer!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire venue boiled over again!
People were whispering in surprise, shocked by Harrison’s generous decision.
Xina herself was stunned, her eyes full of gratitude and surprise, she didn’t expect Harrison to make such a decision.
However!
No one knew that behind Harrison’s seemingly kind smile, there was a highly sinister plot hidden.
After announcing this decision, he discreetly signaled to his confidant.
The confidant understood and quietly withdrew.
