Excessive ferocity due to caution

Chapter 732 [3 Primary Colors - Causality] Seeking Help

Although Zhao Yi's words contained no hint of sarcasm, for Chutebi in his current predicament, every word became an undeniable form of mockery.

His face darkened.

Are you mocking my incompetence?

"You don't understand anything at all!"

"In the current situation, it wouldn't make a difference who's in charge!"

Zhao Yi calmly sat down on the sofa, meeting the angry Director Qiu's gaze with composure.

"No, Chief."

I'm not mocking your incompetence.

"A person only appears incompetent in one situation—that is, when they do far more than they are capable of doing."

"That's something only a stupid and arrogant person would do."

"And you... are trying to become that kind of person."

The two stared at each other for about half a minute, then Chutby took a deep breath.

"I'm sorry, my tone was a bit impulsive just now."

"I've had so many things weighing on my mind lately, it's hard for me not to get emotional."

He put aside his pride and became very honest.

"But what can I do?"

"Ultimately, we still have to face it, don't we?"

Zhao Yi asked:

How many years have you worked at the police station?

"Twenty-three years...maybe twenty-four years, I can't remember exactly, it's been too long."

"Can you handle every case? Can you save everyone who's in danger?"

"Of course not, but we must do our best, after all, it is our duty."

Zhao Yi smiled and said:

Have you ever been scolded for messing things up?

Chutebi didn't know why Zhao Yi asked this, but he still said:

Of course.

"It even got criticized and trended on social media a few times."

"That's why we work even harder and handle each case more carefully."

Zhao Yi, holding the teacup, said meaningfully:

"I don't know much about the police station."

"But I know sheep very well."

"When you encounter trouble, you must learn to...deliberately sacrifice the interests of some sheep."

Chutebi's brows furrowed into a deep frown.

If anyone else said that to him, he would kick that person out.

But after a few short incidents, Qutbi developed a great deal of respect for Zhao Yi.

He knew that the guy in front of him was very powerful.

"Sacrificing the interests of some sheep?"

Why?

Zhao Yi rubbed the rim of the teacup with his fingertips.

"Because...sheep are very selfish."

"If they are not harmed, they will only stand by and watch."

"The police department needs help, no matter who it is or how much it can contribute."

"If you step back, they'll get beaten."

"If they get hit, they'll see who hit them."

Chutby's eyes lit up slightly.

"That sounds...to make sense."

"So, should the police just hold back for now and wait for Capital Man and Sata to fight it out?"

Zhao Yi shrugged.

"Let's leave it at that for now, since there's nothing you can do about it anyway."

He said goodbye to Chutby and went back to his workshop.

After going out,

Zhao Yi had a faint smile on his lips.

"Chutebi, you haven't seen what a truly ugly person looks like, have you?"

"You'll see...soon."

...

Inside the office, Zhao Yi met two old acquaintances who had been waiting there.

Zong Haisheng and Liao Hongqiao.

"I don't provide breakfast here."

Zhao Yi made a joke.

Liao Hongqiao got straight to the point;

"Brother Zhao, we'd like to cooperate with you."

Zhao lit a cigarette and put the lighter in his pocket.

"Aren't you afraid I'll take advantage of you like I did in the last movie?"

The bright incandescent light shone on the three people's faces, making their faces appear as pale as corpses.

"Being able to be used at least proves we still have value, doesn't it?"

Zong Haisheng said with a smile.

His previous film helped him grow a lot.

Now, he is no longer content with being guided by Liao Hongqiao to complete the film, but instead takes the initiative to help Liao Hongqiao solve problems.

Zhao, with a cigarette between his fingers, carefully examined the two men and said:

"Sincerity."

The two exchanged a glance and said:

"We are on a joint mission, and the mission is quite difficult. We need to steal a special 'black weapon' that the military region is researching."

"But we don't even have a chance to enter the military region now, so stealing that black weapon is just a pipe dream!"

"Therefore, we discussed it and finally decided to come to you, hoping that Brother Zhao can give us some advice."

With his vision obscured by the smoke, Zhao Yi waved his hand and put the cigarette in his mouth.

"What happened next?"

"Any follow-up to the mission? There are no follow-up updates at the moment."

Zhao Yi remained silent for a while.

"What's the name of that black weapon?"

Zong Haisheng lowered his voice:

"God falls."

Zhao Yi:

"I see."

"You guys go back first."

"I'll try to think of a solution for you."

Zong Haisheng and Liao Hongqiao didn't say anything more, thanked Zhao Yidao, and left.

Inside the room, Zhao Yi, smoking, calmly looked down at the surface of his shoes.

Although this movie does not have supernatural powers.

But they've invested quite a bit in the tech tree.

This can be seen from the liquid bomb found on the bank robbers yesterday.

Of course, Capital Heroes can choose not to search for such things.

The reason for finding it was actually to show it to the police.

The capitalist is telling the police that he can get his hands on weapons of mass destruction that the police can't.

This is a tremendous deterrent!

Judging from the identities and main missions revealed by Zong and Liao, the dinosaur bomb found yesterday is by no means the most terrifying weapon that the V City military could produce!

That "Godfall" must be far, far more powerful than the dinosaur bomb!

If we could get our hands on it, using it to deal with capitalists would seem like a good option.

...

"General Sata, Whiteman has sent an invitation."

Inside the mausoleum, a soldier stepped out of a black car and handed an invitation to Sata, who was tending to his daughter's grave.

Sata accepted the invitation.

I just glanced at it.

"Not interested."

He returned the invitation.

The soldier looked slightly embarrassed and whispered in Sata's ear:

"General Sata, Buttman said we can show the general Orion's latest research and development results."

"Regarding weaponry."
