Chapter 787: Chapter 234: A Changed Way of Thinking
A few minutes later.
Watching the security and cleaning staff being escorted onto the spaceship.
Chen Ming shook his head with some frustration and said, "Zuo Jing, really makes people sick."
"Itās not the first time youāve known this."
Bai Quan suddenly walked over to Chen Ming with a slightly gloomy expression and said this.
Chen Ming turned his head and asked, "How was it?"
"The result is just as you see, Zuo Jing."
"Iām already preparing to set up new security measures. The security on your side will be handled by our own people."
"However, even so, the source of the deliveries canāt be completely guaranteed."
"We need to set up a relay station near your dome; everything has to go through the relay before it comes to you."
"Although it will be a bit troublesome, itās better than having problems here every day."
Chen Ming waved his hand and said, "Thereās no need for security, letās just withdraw the security company, Iāll take care of the domeās security myself."
"Are you sure you can handle it?"
Chen Ming immediately took out a palm-sized iron-red Gamma Core from his coat pocket: "They can help me handle these things."
Bai Quan glanced at Chen Mingās still bulging coat pocket, then withdrew his gaze and said, "Okay, Iāll help you arrange it later."
After Bai Quan agreed, Chen Ming put away the core and continued to ask him, "What do we do about the Zuo Jing issue next? We canāt just take this loss, right? Do they have any bases or something?"
"Revenge against Zuo Jing doesnāt make much sense, because once we spot signs of Zuo Jing, we usually try to clear them out immediately."
"If we havenāt cleared them, it means weāre planning to use these Zuo Jing to fish or to further investigate their network connections. These Zuo Jing arenāt easy to eliminate; at least, we need to strip the whole network clean before doing so."
Chen Ming said with a slight displeasure: "So youāre saying Zuo Jing is either already dealt with or still useful, no way for me to vent my anger, is it?"
"Yes, like the cleaning staff you just caught, we canāt really kill him; we need to use him to bring out all the Zuo Jing behind him."
"Moreover, Zuo Jing is just a surface problem, the real issue this time isnāt just with Zuo Jing."
Seeing Chen Mingās unsurprised expression, Bai Quan explained, "Because under normal circumstances, Zuo Jing elements couldnāt mix into the military so easily; someone must be deliberately relaxing restrictions on them."
However, Chen Ming didnāt continue listening, instead gestured at Bai Quan to stop and said, "Letās not talk about internal issues of the Fourteenth Legion now, I have only one request."
"If you find any Zuo Jing leads following that cleaning staffās trail, let me know, Iāll handle them personally."
Bai Quan could clearly feel the chill in Chen Mingās words.
"It seems youāre really disgusted by Zuo Jing, but this is just one incident you can act on; there are many places where people suffer because of Zuo Jing that you canāt see."
"At least this one Iāve seen."
Seeing Chen Mingās determined attitude, Bai Quan had nothing more to say: "Alright, Iāll tell you when we have clues."
Chen Ming nodded slightly, and the conversation turned back to Bai Quanās previous words: "The people allowing Zuo Jing to cause trouble, are they the same as those from previous times?"
At this moment, Bai Quan did not give Chen Ming a definite answer: "Itās still hard to determine, but probably."
"So how do you plan to investigate this time? Will it end up like the last time where only a few insignificant people were removed while those at the top were unaffected?"
Chen Mingās tone was a bit harsh due to what happened earlier, but after all, this was already the fourth time.
Anyone would have a hard time suppressing their anger.
But Bai Quan now just sighed.
Although Chen Ming had reached the branch of the Fourteenth Legion, and there were signs that he was about to join them.
With Chen Ming as a foundation, it wasnāt too difficult for Bai Quan to maintain his position once he rose to power.
However, subsequent battles with others couldnāt be completed just by relying on the convenience brought by Chen Ming joining.
Exactly how to apply the influence of this kind of matter to the top level of opponents, Bai Quan still didnāt know.
He tried some countermeasures, but they were all thwarted by the other side.
The opponents he faced were far more skilled in their approach than he was, and they left no trace of themselves.
All the countermeasures were utterly meaningless.
Bai Quan couldnāt find the opponentās weak point, but the opponent constantly targeted his vulnerability, trying to tarnish his career.
This made him feel like he was walking on a tightrope.
"Iām not sure."
Given Bai Quan said this, Chen Mingās estimation was that this matter would likely end up unresolved like the last time.
After all, the real culprit was Zuo Jing, and letting them in was just a failure of some lower-level workers.
The lower-level people were punished appropriately, and it had nothing to do with those at the top.
Thinking of this, Chen Ming sighed again.
This is the limit within the rules.
Some are familiar with the rules, while others have a very poor understanding of them.
Those who know the rules often manipulate those who donāt without breaking any rules themselves.
He already felt suffocated with just a proxy here; if he were here in person, Chen Ming wouldnāt know if he could hold back.
