Qing Zhen's defection

Defection?

The board of directors in the conference room fell silent. That was a grave crime.

There used to be defections from the Qing Consortium, but it had become a much rarer occurrence in recent years. That was because the price to pay for defection was simply too great, and the organization never let any defectors off.

Someone asked the secretary, "Did Qing Zhen leave any information behind?"

"He left a letter on the table in his villa." The secretary said, "He said he was going out to take a break from things."

Everyone in the conference room was stunned. Did Qing Zhen treat the Board's decision as a game? He was ordered not to take a single step out of his villa, yet he just left the stronghold!
