Once, I wanted to be a good person

Chapter 204 27. Harvest! Awakening Ability!_3

And to protect the interests of those in power and to stabilize their rule, every country was divided into an independent state.

Within each state, there was a high degree of autonomy; those in power and their descendants automatically became nobles of the state, enjoying a series of special privileges and the highest authority...

And Xida State had three such hereditary noble families...

....

...

In addition to matters related to the shadow organization and the nobility, Fang Ze discovered an unexpected bonus while interrogating Qiu Yue.

Clues about the Flower Morning Festival!

Actually, Fang Ze had previously thought that between him and Bai Zhi, who started halfway, it would be too difficult to rely solely on themselves to gather information on the Flower Morning Festival and catch up with the progress of other forces.

The best method was, in fact, to get as much information as possible from other forces and then compile it into their own. This way, it would save time and effort, and also catch up with the progress of other forces!

And unexpectedly, his thought came true.

The shadow organization had also been investigating the Flower Morning Festival for the past decade or so.

Although the clues they obtained were not abundant, there were some leads.

For instance... they too had discovered that the Flower Morning Festival seemed to be related to several gangs in Emerald City.

These gangs arrived in Emerald City fifty years ago and then established the Red Light District.

At that time, they also launched a magazine: "Passionate Nightlife's Hundred Flowers List."

Later, after the first Flower Morning Festival ended, the magazine suddenly changed its name to the "Golden Rooster List."

There was suspected deliberate avoidance.

Furthermore, although the Flower God's Holy Maidens were said to be randomly selected, the shadow organization's investigation found that they were actually... all orphans.

And all of them were girls who were abducted or adopted from poor city districts by the eight major gangs of the Red Light District and fostered by other families from a young age.

This led the shadow organization to suspect even more that the Flower Morning Festival was related to these gangs.

Therefore, during these years, they had also been quietly contacting those gangs, trying to draw them in, infiltrate them, and then find out the secrets of the Flower Morning Festival.

And "Qin 28" was exactly what those gangs specifically asked for.

The shadow organization initially wanted to refuse, since such an item was too precious and too dangerous. If leaked out, it could potentially lead to a significant problem.

But they couldn't resist... the price offered was simply too high, even five times the black market rate.

Each had its advantages and disadvantages.

Judging from this Awakening Crystal, Qiu Yue was likely not born into an Awakener's family and did not possess ancestral bloodlines.

Her Awakening Ability was either self-awakened or someone behind her had used a Special Awakening Method to bestow it upon her...

As Fang Ze thought this, he also recalled the ability contained within the Awakening Crystal.

107 Selves.

Honestly, this Awakening Ability was quite interesting and had some very unique applications; it could even be extraordinarily effective in combat.

Imagine if someone swung a blade at you, but you split into pieces.

While the enemy was still in shock, your two legs were already kicking their butt separately, and each of your two hands was chasing them with a 20-centimeter watermelon knife. Fang Ze thought... that's really not bad.

However, regrettably, this ability did not match Fang Ze's [Credit World], nor did it fit his overall combat style or investigative style.

So, Fang Ze had no plans to use it but decided to keep it for a while to see if... there was someone around who needed it. To bestow it upon or lend it to them, to increase strength for his side...

After all, with the [Intermediate Credit World], Fang Ze could reclaim anything he bestowed and could also reborrow it at any time. It was a no-loss deal.

Thinking this, after completing his investigation and reviewing his gains, Fang Ze, who had worked hard all day, was also tired.

Before leaving, he once again checked on Hua Jian's safety, making sure she hadn't been taken away by the Rejuvenation Society and was still sleeping soundly. Then Fang Ze slumped into a chair and fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, Fang Ze, who had slept on the floor of the resting room, was woken up by a series of knocks on the door.

He was bleary-eyed and yawned as he went to open the door.

The door opened, and Bai Zhi and Bai Ling stood outside with conflicted expressions.

Upon seeing Fang Ze open the door, Bai Zhi couldn't help asking, "How did it go? Did you get the results from the interrogation?"

Fang Ze looked up at the two of them.

Then he noticed that not far behind them, there were quite a few other Commissioners from the Security Bureau, all gathered around to watch the excitement, eager to see if Fang Ze had really succeeded in the interrogation after a day's work...

Seeing those people, Fang Ze didn't say a word, just stretched lazily and then turned back into the resting room.

The two women outside, along with the crowd of onlookers, were left with a sea of question marks, clueless as to what had happened.

At that moment, Fang Ze came out again from inside, holding a report in his hand filled with writing and stamped with fingerprints...
