“Indeed.” The Deputy Chief couldn’t help but chuckle.

From outside the factory, Daxon Johnson beamed with joy when he spotted the car, pointing at Ethan Smith he chirped, “You are done for, our commander is here!”

The car quickly drove in, and as soon as it stopped, Commander Keller, Declan Steele, and a man with a square face walked in.

Daxon quickly stepped forward, saluted, and shouted, “Greetings to the commander!”

The square-faced man scrunched his brow slightly. He scanned the environment and asked, “What’s the matter?”

In a hurry, Daxon said: “We have conducted a joint inspection with the relevant departments on this factory and found that it is full of substandard medicinal herbs!”

The Deputy Chief and Commander Keller exchanged a look, confusion flooding their eyes.

Noticing their expressions, Daxon continued, “To report to the Deputy Chief, besides the substandard herbs, the owner of this factory, Mr. Smith, deserves a serious treatment.”

Hearing this, the Deputy Chief said solemnly: “Tell me why.”

Daxon grinned maliciously at Ethan, then said in a cold voice: “He has not only produced substandard health products, but also resisted violently. He even claimed to know the higher-ups of our war-zone! Please give the order for strict handling, commander!”

Before the Deputy Chief could say a word, Declan stepped forward and sternly reprimanded: “Daxon, you must take responsibility for your words!”

Daxon was taken aback, slightly confused, he squinted at Declan, then nodded, “What I said is the truth, please enlighten, commander!”

Commander Keller frowned by his side and asked, “Daxon, do you know who he

Daxon glanced at Ethan and somewhat lightly stated, “I know, he’s the son-in-law of the Johnson family, a man who loves doing household chores like washing clothes and cooking.”

“Audacious! Mr. Smith is our esteemed guest in the war-zone and the reason for our visit!” Declan immediately reproached angrily.

Upon hearing this, Daxon’s face turned pale!

Was Ethan Smith actually the person Chief Richardson had specifically invited? How could this be possible? Simon Johnson had claimed he was just a loser.

Declan coldly glared at Daxon and then quickly walked up to Ethan, apologetically asked, “Mr. Smith, what on earth is happening here?”

“Yeah, Ethan, was there any misunderstanding?” Commander Keller also followed up.

Ethan responded coldly, “Commander Keller, I’m very disappointed with your war-zone.”

Commander Keller frowned, “Ethan, why do you say that?”

Ethan looked at Daxon coldly and said, “This Daxon claims to be an elite operative of your war-zone, but he lacks decency! Just because I didn’t salute

him, he teamed up with the Quality Control Department to frame me!”

Daxon’s face changed, he quickly argued, “Commander, don’t listen to his nonsense!”

Ethan scoffed, “I have surveillance here, would you like me to show it to you?”

Hearing this, Daxon laughed coldly and said, “Sorry, the surveillance is broken.”

“How do you know?” Ethan squinted and asked quietly.

A chill ran through Daxon’s heart! Damn, he had unintentionally revealed it!

“I… I guessed.” Daxon forced himself to answer.

Declan shot a cold glance at Daxon and declared, “Daxon, if it turns out you staged this, I’ll make sure you pay!”

Daxon was suffering inwardly, how was he to know that Ethan held such prestige!

But with things as they are, he had no choice but to soldier on.

Daxon took a deep breath and said in a voice lacking certainty, “Even if Ethan is an esteemed guest of our battle zone, he should still abide by the law.”

“This factory produces all substandard products; it deserves appropriate punishment.”

Not far away, the Deputy Chief squinted his eyes. He glanced at Daxon and asked sternly, “Substandard products? This factory is a key target of the Commerce Department, how could it produce substandard products?”

After hearing the Deputy Chief’s words, Daxon grew anxious, cold sweat trickling down his forehead.

“Speak up! What’s going on!” Declan shouted angrily at the Quality Control Department staff.

“Let me tell you, if you admit now, we can be lenient. If we have to find out ourselves, don’t blame me for not being polite!” Declan stared coldly at the head of Quality Control.

The head of Quality Control turned ashy, looking overtly uncomfortable.

However, after pondering for a moment, he still pushed forward and said, “What… what Daxon said is true.”

“Good.” The Deputy Chief nodded.

He turned to Commander Keller and ordered, “Immediately call the people from the Second Squad of the war-zone and have them conduct an investigation. If there’s no issue, all of you will face dismissal and inquiry!” “Yes, sir!” Commander Keller saluted and was about to make a call.

At that moment, the Quality Control head suddenly yelled, “Stop… don’t call… I’ll tell, I’ll tell everything…”

Declan hummed lightly and said, “Speak up, what the hell is going on.”

The head pointed at Daxon and tremblingly said, “It was… he who asked us to frame Ethan..

“You… you’re spouting nonsense!” Daxon turned ghostly pale, cold sweat flowing incessantly!

At this point, the head no longer cared.Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

He pointed at Daxon and said, “He instructed us to do this. He said it’s fine if we find something, and if not, we should secretly replace the herbs with bad ones to frame Ethan..”

“You… you’re slandering me!” Daxon looked as if he was on his deathbed, he turned to the Deputy Chief and pleaded, “Deputy Chief, you… don’t listen to his nonsense, he’s making it all up!”

The Deputy Chief stared coldly at Daxon and inquired, “So you’re still not admitting to it?”

Daxon clenched his teeth and exclaimed, “Deputy Chief, it was all his idea, I… I was just passing by!”

“Think about it, as a soldier, how would I have the authority to inspect medicinal herbs? This has nothing to do with me at all!” Daxon raised his hand up to the sky, as if swearing an oath.

Seeing this, the head retaliated, “I have a recording! Mr. Smith is a celebrity in River City, and I was afraid of causing trouble, so I specially recorded the conversation with Daxon!”

“Bring it out at once!” Declan demanded sternly.

The head immediately took out his phone and started looking through the recordings.

Daxon’s face was filled with panic, large beads of sweat covering his forehead.

Just then, Daxon suddenly reached out, trying to snatch the phone. But Ethan flicked his finger and Daxon was sent flying sideways!

“What, trying to destroy evidence?” Ethan scoffed..
