Unfazed by their surprise, Huangfu Jun raised her head, looked directly at Zheng Sini, held up her phone, and used the AI reading function to loudly play the content:
"Hello, Inspector Zheng. I am a new employee reporting today. I haven't even officially started yet."
"I have not been exposed to any company files or archives. All my colleagues and the surveillance system can attest to that. More importantly, the time of the accident at the construction site must be before my onboarding date."
"If the Supervision Bureau needs to ensure the integrity of documents and materials by temporarily removing me from my position, I accept that. But I cannot accept restrictions on my personal freedom." The already tense atmosphere rose another level.
All the monster employees in the Seventh Bureau looked at her with expressions more vivid than one another.
Zheng Sini's face grew darker. He turned his gaze to Deputy General Manager Hamo, his voice becoming even harsher. "General Manager Ha, please explain. When did a 'suspected human' new employee who hasn't been filed with the Supervision Bureau appear in your company? Do you not know the seriousness of having a human or half-demon in the Monster Bureau?"
Hamo was so frightened that sweat poured down his face. He quickly signaled to Ying Wu.
Ying Wu immediately understood. She walked over to Huangfu Jun and patted her shoulder reassuringly. "Little sister, don't misunderstand. The Supervision Bureau has its own procedures. Let's listen first."
Huangfu Jun calmed down a bit. This scene was indeed frightening, but rather than letting others arbitrarily deprive her of personal freedom, it was better to openly express her protest.
No matter how many monsters the Monster Bureau had, it was still just a bureau, bound by regulations.
Hamo quickly walked to Zheng Sini's side. "Inspector Zheng, don't be angry. Miss Huangfu is the newest employee assigned to the Seventh Bureau by Director General Yao Jing. There shouldn't be any problems with the procedure. The Seventh Bureau has always abided by the law, with no violations whatsoever. This is purely a coincidence. How about I send a message to Director General Yao right now and have the head office urgently file a record with the Supervision Bureau?"
Before he finished speaking, the office door was knocked again.
Everyone, including Huangfu Jun, turned their heads in unison.
Zheng Sini's expression darkened further, but he maintained basic politeness and said in a deep voice, "Enter."
When she saw who it was, Huangfu Jun's eyes widened in surprise. This time, it was the little brother Gui Suishou.
Earlier, he had seemed so scared that Huangfu Jun thought he would hide far away.
Unexpectedly, this time, the little brother appeared exceptionally calm and composed. He still wore that chubby red down jacket, holding two documents in his right hand, walking toward Zheng Sini with short, steady steps.
His eyes were bright, his posture straight, his pace steady, forming a striking contrast to the stooping, bowing Hamo.
"Inspector Zheng, these are two documents. One is a special explanation from Captain Bai Lin sent to the head office this morning regarding Miss Huangfu Jun's eligibility for employment, along with the head office's approval just returned. The other is the backup file of Miss Huangfu Jun's personal records just sent by Director General Yao's office. Miss Huangfu Jun is indeed a new employee today and has not been exposed to any bureau matters. The procedure is fully compliant."
Zheng Sini took the documents and examined them page by page, his face growing increasingly dark.
After reading all the documents, Zheng Sini put them away, handed them to his assistant, and then looked up at Huangfu Jun. He said in a deep voice, "Miss Huangfu, you no longer need to undergo a separate review. Please cooperate with the Supervision Bureau's normal work alongside your other colleagues."
Gui Suishou was very satisfied with this result. He turned around and made an OK gesture to Huangfu Jun, indicating that everything was settled. His playful demeanor was a world apart from his previous steady image.
Huangfu Jun finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as her personal freedom wasn't restricted, this company was still tolerable.
But she never expected that little brother would be the most reliable person in this unit. His figure, less than 1.5 meters tall, exuded an air of greatness.
Indeed, never judge a book by its cover.
Hamo seized the moment to step forward again. "Inspector Zheng, let's go to my office first. The important documents are all with me, under my personal custody."
Zheng Sini didn't move. He scanned all the Seventh Bureau employees present again. "General Manager Ha, procedures must be compliant. All employees of the Seventh Bureau must undergo investigation and inquiry. This isn't all of them, is it?"
Hamo's face showed a hint of difficulty. "Inspector Zheng, besides the office staff, the Seventh Bureau only has Logistics Director Zhang Yu, who also serves as the head of logistics. His seniority and temperament, you know them best. It's not easy to get him to come to the front. How about letting other comrades from the Inspection Division check the back kitchen?"
Huangfu Jun's eyebrows rose again.
Did she hear that correctly?
A Monster Bureau of this scale, including her, only had eight people? And the chef, logistics, and logistics director were all the same person?
She had worked as a kitchen helper in a fast-food restaurant and knew best the hardships of logistics and kitchen work.
She wondered if it would be easier for monsters who could use spells compared to the same positions in the human world.
Zheng Sini gave no room for negotiation. He adjusted his black-rimmed glasses. "General Manager Ha, I don't need to remind you of the seriousness of this accident. The number of casualties exceeds 30. It is an extremely serious liability accident with very bad implications. Everyone in the main unit must be uniformly investigated according to regulations."
Gui Suishou looked at Hamo, spread his hands, and shook his head helplessly.
Hamo sighed. "It can only be this way." He then raised his head, clapped his hands toward the empty space in front, and said, "Director Zhang, sorry to interrupt your busy work. Please come to the office personally."
A mass of dim mist suddenly condensed in the empty space, slowly spreading.
What, is there a fire?!
This bizarre scene startled Huangfu Jun, making her back stiffen. Was a monster about to appear?
The black mist slowly expanded, as if driven by some mysterious force. Finally, before everyone's eyes, it revealed its true form!
