Finished Avery, a young female secretary stood before Eugene Field in the deputy directorâs office of the Inspection Bureau.
âMr. Field, thereâs a situation in the interrogation hall. The suspects in the Brighton University scholarship fraud case, Robin and Joanna, whom you ordered to be investigated, have been brought in. But ... Ms. Lopez was assaulted by Robin.â
âWhat?â Eugeneâs expression darkened as he mulled over the news.
âDeploy the bureauâs antiâriot guards immediately. If Robin continues to resist arrest with violence, deal with him decisively. If necessary... you know what I mean.â
âBut the situation is ... complicated,â Avery hesitated, her face reddening.
Although she was still relatively new at the bureau, she knew Eugeneâs ties to Tracy.
Three years ago, when Eugene was still climbing the ranks, Tracy had been his assistant.
âWhat do you mean?â Eugene ran his fingers over the few stray hairs on his head, instinctively trying to cover the glaring bald spot in the center.
That dream of regaining his full head of hair had driven him for years, yet it remained unfulfilled.
His gaze drifted to Averyâs nice figure before he asked, âDid someone put in a plea for Robin? Iâve emphasized time and again in meetingsâour stance on criminals must be firm!
âThere will be zero tolerance for fraud and bribery in Joannaâs case. Weâll conduct a thorough investigation. Based on multiple informantsâ reports, Robin is the key player in this case.
âEven before the inquiry began, I was convinced he was involved. If we donât bring this arrogant man to justice, Brighton will never have peace!â
âItâs not that ... â Avery hesitated, then finally spoke, âRobin has exposed Ms. Lopezâs past on the public display in the lobby.â
Eugene stiffened. âHer past? That information should be in the archives. How did Robin get his hands on it?â
Taking a deep breath, Avery clarified, âMr. Field, itâs not her official records that Robin revealedâbut her real background.â
Eugene shot up from his chair as if it were on fire. âHow did Robin obtain Tracyâs personal history?â His throat went dry. âHow far has this gone?â
Avery instinctively took a step back. âItâs already being broadcast in the lobby.
âRobin said if you donât come down and personally handle the situationâif you donât give him and Joanna a proper explanationâ
he wonât just expose Ms. Lopezâs real background. Heâll also reveal yours and Mr. Huntâs.
âAnd if you still refuse to act, heâll take it a step furtherâheâll release everything online and let the whole internet witness the âgloriousâ trajectory of your careers.
âMr. Field, should we arrest them under the charge of violently resisting law enforcement? Will you handle 1:འའའâའའâ1-.

âOh... I forgot Mr. Reed is in a meeting tonight...
Finished âIâIâll take care of it myself!â Eugene instinctively smoothed his thinning hair. âNotify all departments- donât disturb Mr. Reed!â
As he made his way to the interrogation hall, his mind raced, searching for a solution.
He never expected Robin to have dark information on them. If that were to go public, it would be catastrophic.
His relationship with Tracyâand several other past entanglementsâwas still ongoing. If the director and senior leadership caught wind of his history, it would be irreversible.
The leak had to be sealed immediately.
At the same time, Eugene discreetly sent a message to his older brother, the head of the Fields. The problem had to be dealt with swiftly before it spiraled out of control.
He was convinced that unpredictable individuals like Robin couldnât be allowed to existâotherwise, his entire family could be ruined.
Eugene hurried into the hall, his eyes sweeping across the gathered staff and recently detained suspects, all of whom were fixated on the scrolling text on the screen.
The atmosphere felt more like an audience captivated by a gripping urban thriller than a serious interrogation room.
Eugene turned sharply to the law enforcement officers. âShut down this unverified slander immediately!â Then, addressing the rest of the staff, he barked, âWhat are you all staring at? Get back to work!â
But no one moved. The guards hesitated, especially after seeing two of their own already subdued.
Many guards recognized exactly who Robin was.
Many of the law enforcement officers in the Inspection Bureau were former special forces operatives, recruited from various military districts and placed into service. Those elite veterans, shaped by years of rigorous training and battlefield experience, held a deep respect for true strength and heroism.
Robin smirked. âFine. If you insist on shutting it down, Iâll just post everything online!â With a flick of his sleeve, he signaled the blueâuniformed guards to pause the broadcast.
At that moment, Eugeneâs name appeared on the screen, followed by a detailed list of his offshore assets.
Eugeneâs throat went dry as he swallowed nervously.
âUh... Robin.â After a brief internal struggle, he forced a smile and said, âIâve heard you were once a general in the Special Operations Military Region. This might all be a misunderstanding.
âHow about this? Whether you or your sister were involved in any crime, weâll set those charges aside for now. Letâs end things here today.
âThe staff here have a heavy workload, and sometimes they may act impatient or come across as inconsiderate.
âWe wonât hold you accountable for attacking law enforcement. Letâs just call it even, alright?â

Robin slowly lifted his gaze, locking onto the bald deputy director. âNo,â
Eugeneâs expression stiffened. âRobin, what exactly do you want?â
Finished Robin settled onto the couch in the middle of the hall. âYou should know this sayingâstarting something is easy, but walking away from it is much harder.
âIâm not some kindâhearted forgiving man. Fugitives, cowards, and hypocritical soâcalled gentlemen... They all call me a devil.
âYou dragged me here, so I donât want anythingâexcept to set things right.â
Eugeneâs heart pounded. He narrowed his eyes at Robin, a flash of murderous intent flickering within them.
âWhat ... what are you after?â His voice dropped slightly. âYou should think carefully. Do you want to make enemies?â
Robin let out a cold chuckle. âI donât make enemies.â His eyes glinted with quiet menace. âI simply eliminate the trash that dares to come after me and my family.â
