Operation 241

Joint Military Headquarters.

Chen Xiguang, leaning on his cane, stood in front of a series of three-dimensional large screens, surrounded by a circle of school-ranked officers.

"Yu Hong...? Is this person... worth trusting?" he asked in a low voice.

"This person is very skilled in rune technology and also possesses great personal strength. He has helped Lin Yiyi on numerous occasions and values loyalty and righteousness; we should try our best to win him over to our side."

A female officer standing beside him responded affirmatively.

"Lin Yiyi is not beautiful, has no background, and yet she received Yu Hong's help. All she did was save him once initially. Such camaraderie is quite rare in these times," Chen Xiguang sighed. "You heard their exchange in the car just now, what do you think?"

"If we let Yu Hong take this responsibility on his own, it would indeed be an appropriate move, but such an action would be unjust," the female officer declared solemnly.
