Breakthrough Plan

…

The next morning.

The pale pink morning sun stained half the sky to the east.

The dew, with the tender green smell of grass, hung in the air.

The wind rustled the dense leaves, composing a delightful ensemble.

Everything was warm and peaceful.

The only pity was that there were fewer insect noises and birds chirping.

In the temporary residence of the task force, Fang Ze got out of bed.

He yawned and patted his slightly tired face. Then, he looked at his roommate, who was sitting on the next bed, lost in thought.

Sensing Fang Ze's gaze on him, Wang Hao snapped out of it and turned to look at him. He forced an incredibly friendly fake smile and handed him an orange.

Fang Ze took the orange and returned the "sincere" smile.

With such a considerate roommate, Fang Ze felt that he could sleep in peace…

He left the dormitory, humming a song from his previous life, and strolled to the cafeteria.

He ordered a few meals.

There were braised pork shoulder with extra sugar, spicy and sour squid, and salty steamed buns with condensed milk.

He found a table and sat down. Then, he took two big bites.

Fang Ze felt very satisfied.

He was provided for by the government as soon as he transmigrated. Furthermore, the future was really too "hopeful"…

During his meal, many colleagues came to eat.

When they saw Fang Ze, they all smiled and took the initiative to greet him.

Fang Ze smiled back at each of them, exchanging pleasantries and greetings.

What was the most fearful thing at work?

It was not being able to handle one's relationship with their colleagues well.

His colleagues were so "enthusiastic" and he was so "friendly". They were really "a loving family".

"Life is too good to be true."

After they left, Fang Ze, who was sitting alone at the table, lowered his head and took a big bite of the steamed bun.

The salty steamed buns tasted bitter and salty without the condensed milk…

It was just like the smell of this wonderful life.

He finished his meal and left the canteen.

Outside the canteen were a few old cameras placed by the deceased villa owner.

The cameras were pointing directly at him, blinking a faint red light, but according to his colleague, it was no longer working.

Fang Ze believed them.

Just like how he believed in this shitty world…

"Sigh, I'm truly a fool…"

Taking a deep breath and adjusting his mood, Fang Ze walked towards the temporary meeting room on the first floor of the villa with a smile.

Today was Friday, the day of the weekly meeting.

On the way, it was rare that no one was following, monitoring, or disturbing him. Fang Ze took the opportunity to compose himself and start thinking seriously about his future…

Although last night's events had been sudden and brief, they still had a very big impact on his life.

It also completely shattered the entire world he had known since he transmigrated.

He hadn't expected his life to be so "good."

It was so "good" that it exceeded his expectations.

Therefore, he needed to re-plan his life after transmigration and resolve the predicament he was in now…

First, he had to sort out his situation.

He decided there was no way he could run.

He couldn't even get rid of the Security Bureau, which hid in the shadows and had extraordinary powers, let alone the 20 agents who monitored him at all times.

If he couldn't run, then he had to find a way to break through.

There were two ways to break through. The first was to break through with strength.

If Fang Ze had the strength to fight the task force and the Security Bureau team, everything would be settled.

Furthermore, to achieve that goal, Fang Ze felt that he still had to rely on the Late-Night Investigation Room.

Last night, the first experiment at the Late-Night Investigation Room allowed Fang Ze to obtain an extraordinary artifact. This filled him with confidence in this magical room!

Once he obtained a key extraordinary artifact or awakened his abilities, Fang Ze's crisis might be resolved immediately.

Therefore, Fang Ze had to buy as much time as possible to develop himself.

The second way to break through was through intelligence.

Fang Ze felt that based on what Wang Hao had told him last night, there was probably more to this case.

Coupled with the special attention the Security Bureau paid to this case and himself, it was obvious that something was wrong.

Fang Ze felt that as long as he investigated the case and learned the purpose of the Security Bureau and the Investigation Department, he might be able to negotiate by helping them achieve their goals. Then, perhaps, he could also break through.

Similarly, this method required enough time.

Thus, to get enough time, Fang Ze felt he had to take action.

He couldn't let the whole thing go according to the task force's plan.

He had to add some chaos to the task force. He had to muddle the waters to give himself time to develop and investigate.

Finally, and most importantly… Fang Ze had to think of a way to clean up the mess he had made yesterday.

In order to test his cheat code yesterday, what Fang Ze did was very out of line, and there were many suspicious points.

If he was an agent, then these things would be fine.

However, he was a criminal.

In that case, it would be too suspicious for him to come into contact with every agent on the task force and shake off surveillance afterwards.

Therefore, Fang Ze had to smooth over yesterday's incident.

Otherwise, he would probably be invited to tea by the Security Bureau soon…

"But… How exactly should I smooth over what happened yesterday?"

Fang Ze muttered something. Then, he looked up and saw someone he knew. It was Agent Han Kaiwei, who'd followed him before.

"Eh…?"

Fang Ze froze when he saw Han Kaiwei.

Then, in that instant, lightning flashed in his mind. He seemed to have suddenly thought of what he should do.

He mentally reviewed his plan.

He felt that although it was a little risky, if he succeeded, he might be able to kill two birds with one stone.

Not only could he smooth over yesterday's abnormality, but he could also stir up the waters of the task force.

The only slight problem was that he might have to take quite a risk.

Thinking of this, Fang Ze couldn't help but think of the extraordinary artifact he had obtained last night, the Salty Magazine.

"Can this allow me to execute my plan more perfectly?"

"Can this make people more convinced and close to me?"

Eh? It seemed that… He could use the ability of the Magazine in his plan!

In that case, the risk seemed much smaller.

It just so happened that he wanted to see how effective this extraordinary artifact was…

He would treat this as an experiment.

With this thought in mind, Fang Ze went through his plan again.

After he confirmed that there were no issues, he turned and put a warm smile on his face. He waved at Han Kaiwei. "Brother Han? Are you going to the meeting? Let's go together."

…

Ever since he was fooled by Fang Ze a few days ago, Han Kaiwei had received a lot of eye rolls from the task force.

In addition, he had no gains this week, so Han Kaiwei planned to be more proactive during the regular meeting.

Thus, after breakfast, he headed for the meeting room early.

However, halfway there, he suddenly heard someone greeting him.

He was surprised. There were actually agents on the task force who took the initiative to greet him? The sun had really risen from the west.

Then, he tilted his head and saw the "criminal" who'd shaken off his surveillance.

Han Kaiwei was stunned for a moment.

He was a devil-may-care type to begin with, and he didn't need him to spy on Fang Ze today, so he hesitated for a moment and pretended not to hear Fang Ze. His head made a 180-degree turn, and he headed in the opposite direction with his head held high and whistling.
