Chapter 1006 - 511: The Supreme Treasure Transformed—These Two Children Herald a New Era (Part 3)

This sole fact destined the Xiezhi Bureau to hold an extremely transcendent status, with no one daring to easily interfere in its affairs.

A leading uniformed official said expressionlessly, "I am Yu Sihan, Director of Operations at the First Monitoring Office of the Xiezhi Bureau."

Director Yu continued, "Director He, you are suspected of abusing your authority by allowing over ten thousand units of Body Tempering Liquid to flow into a company that was not qualified to receive it."

He gestured an invitation: "Please come back with us for an investigation."

Director He wore a defeated expression, his lips trembling slightly, "Can I... can I get my things in order first?"

Director Yu asked mockingly, "This case involves many powerful people, so you’re trying to find an opportunity to take your own life, right?"

Without waiting for Director He’s response, the director sneered, "Let me tell you, this trick won’t work. Even if you die, the Spirit Crow at the Xiezhi Bureau can make your soul talk."

Director He’s face paled with horror.

His face twitched a few times, and he asked, "Aren’t you afraid of provoking everyone’s opposition by doing this?"

Director Yu responded with a series of questions: "When you say ’everyone,’ do you mean those with guilty consciences?

"Do you really think those guilty people banding together can shake Mr. Spirit Crows?

"Mr. Spirit Crows is a top elite in Great Xia, capable of moving mountains and filling seas with just a gesture. What can you clowns use to shake him?"

Director He was rendered speechless.

Director Yu said unceremoniously, "The times have long since changed, yet you’re still using outdated logic from the past, always trying to leverage power for more advantages."

Director He protested, "Does having immense power mean you can do whatever you want?"

Director Yu sneered, "If Mr. Spirit Crows truly did as he pleased, do you think you’d still have a chance to talk to me?

"It is precisely because Mr. Spirit Crows chose restraint that the Xiezhi Bureau exists, and that we are here to follow the rules.

"Do you think your opposition can really change the rules? No, let me tell you straight, it will only destroy the rules and completely lift the constraints on power."

Director He fell silent.

With his knowledge, he naturally knew that the other party was not wrong.

The establishment of the Xiezhi Bureau was the result of compromise among various parties.

This is by no means an abuse of power; rather, it is a constraint on power.

So any voice of opposition is attempting to break the balance that all parties strive to maintain, which will inevitably lead to a joint suppression with very serious consequences.

Director He finally understood this, and sighed dejectedly, "I’ll go with you."

Yan Continent.

Madaga Special Administrative Region.

After the previous massive tsunami, Madaga Island was designated as a special administrative region and formally incorporated under the jurisdiction of Great Xia.

Early in the morning, Ha Xiaofu received a phone call.

Three minutes later.

He put down the phone, looking at his wife with delight: "Honey, the Children’s Welfare Center called me. A new batch of Body Tempering Liquid will be airlifted in tomorrow, and there’s an allocation for our baby."

Erin also smiled with joy, "It’s finally coming."

A couple of weeks ago.

Staff from the community collected a bit of their baby’s heel blood and sent it to relevant institutions for testing.

The results showed that the baby’s physique had a high compatibility with the Body Tempering Liquid, thus being included in the limited supply list.

Each unit of Body Tempering Liquid cost 9,800 Xia Yuan, much lower than many expected, with the state subsidizing 60% and the special administrative region subsidizing 30%, leaving the couple to pay only 980 Xia Yuan.

The Children’s Welfare Center also indicated that arrangements for the baby to take the medicine would be made soon.

But the couple waited for over two weeks, making several inquiry calls without receiving any definite answer.

Today, they finally received official notification.

The next morning, bright and early.

In a heavily guarded room at the Children’s Welfare Center.

The couple watched as their little daughter drank a vial of light green liquid.

The baby’s body temperature soon rose slightly, reaching a mild fever state of 37.5 degrees, and then she fell into a deep sleep.

After observing for another hour.

Professionals performed a comprehensive detection of the little daughter using a Spiritual Ability Instrument.

The results came in— the baby’s Superpower Index reached 1 point.

The entire welfare center was in an uproar.

The couple couldn’t stop smiling wide.

Because this 11-month-old infant displayed superpower traits, which is extremely rare.

It can be sure that this girl named "Ha Xiaolin" will most likely become an accomplished Superpower User in the future.

Many gathered around this deeply sleeping infant, clicking their tongues in wonder as they saw the tinge of light green in her hair.

This change had occurred in the past hour.

A staff member called Ha Xiaofu aside and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Ha! Your daughter has been included in the ’Special Child Assistance Program.’

"From now on, your family will receive a special subsidy of 5,000 Xia Yuan every month until Ha Xiaolin turns 18, and the future subsidy amount might increase."

Ha Xiaofu was even more thrilled, "The state benefits are getting better and better."

The staff member replied in a matter-of-fact tone, "Your baby represents the future of Great Xia, and she might contribute greatly to Great Xia someday, so naturally, the state ought to provide more benefits."

This person then handed over a tablet, "You are Ha Xiaolin’s guardian. Please press your fingerprint here."

Just as Ha Xiaofu reached to press his thumbprint, he suddenly heard an even greater commotion from behind.

"Just a moment ago, she could only support herself to stand, and now after a nap, she can walk steadily."

"My goodness, the Body Tempering Liquid is amazing!"

Ha Xiaofu immediately turned to look and saw his baby curiously walking around on the bed, her small body not wavering at all, and he could hardly believe his eyes.

His wife stood at the bedside, her eyes fixed intently on the baby, too excited to speak.

After a couple of seconds.

The baby suddenly stopped, turned to her mother, and said clearly, "Mommy, I’m hungry!"

The commotion grew even louder.

Because the little girl couldn’t speak before, and no one expected that after drinking a vial of Body Tempering Liquid, she could not only walk but also speak so clearly.
