Chapter 46

A/N: Hi there everyone. I know I'm making you wait quite a long time for the updates. But not on purpose. I don't want to go into detail here, but I can tell you this much, it's mostly due to my health problems. Especially my shoulder. Which is due to my cervical spine problems. But it's getting better every day and hopefully I'll soon be able to write daily updates again. And yes, I know that this and the last update were rather boring. Sorry about that. I promise it will get better as soon as my brain can fully concentrate on writing again. Or rather, when I'm no longer distracted by pain or other things. Like the YouTube shorts. Once I start watching the shorts, I can't stop. Ahem. It gets better. See you soon my dears.

When Yibo made his way to the agency, all he knew was that there was supposed to be a big meeting. No one on his team had been able to tell him what it was about, but it was clear that the entire top level leadership from the government had been replaced and the new bosses, as well as the new director of the agency, wanted to introduce themselves to everyone today.

Arriving in the parking lot of the agency, Yibo stretched extensively and greeted Jackson Wang, who had come straight towards him. "Good morning." Yibo said and shook hands with his colleague.

"Good morning Yibo. Excited already?" Replied Jackson Wang and leaned against Yibo's car.

"Not really." Yibo tried not to let on how confused he was about the news that the entire executive team had been replaced. "What do you know about the meeting?"

"I don't know anything Yibo. For the first time, I'm just as clueless as everyone else. I'm really curious what they have to tell us. Three days ago, our bosses had a meeting at headquarters and the next day they came here, packed their personal belongings and left before lunch. In the afternoon, eight senior special agents came here with their personal belongings, moved into the new office building and announced the information about today's meeting via the internal network. And yesterday a number of agents vacated their workplaces and left. No one would tell us where they were going or what was going on."

"For supposedly knowing nothing, you know quite a lot. Now I'm even more curious to see what awaits us.It sounds to me as if our colleagues were dismissed yesterday."

"Our team also assumes that they have been dismissed. But since none of those who left said anything, we couldn't verify it. Well, let's go inside now. We don't want to be late."

"The meeting doesn't start for another 15 minutes. But yes, let's go. Hopefully we'll get good seats then." Said Yibo. Jackson Wang nodded in agreement and the two of them set off. However, when they reached the conference hall, they realized that they didn't have to worry about getting good seats. There were only a handful of other agents present.

At 10 o'clock on the dot, the new bosses entered the conference hall accompanied by the new director Hong Huan. The 12 agents present, including Yibo, stood up and greeted their new bosses with deep bows and a polite good day. And only when the bosses had sat down did the confused agents sit down and waited eagerly to find out what was going on.

While the new superiors chatted quietly and looked at a few documents that had been handed to them, Yibo and Jackson Wang looked around in confusion. Apart from the two of them, there was no one else from their team. And they also noticed the puzzled looks of their colleagues, whose team members were also not present.

Finally, the new director stood up, introduced himself by name and explained: "When I see the confused looks on your faces, I can well understand what's going on inside you. Because I looked just as confused three days ago when I was told by the Minister of Defense that I had to take over the management of this agency. And I got a stomach ache when he gave me his orders and two lists as soon as I was promoted to director. One of the orders was to fire all the agents on the first list and send the agents on the second list for further training. Another order was to stop all missions from us with immediate effect and hand them over to other agencies. I..." An agent stood up, interrupting the director. "Yes please?" The director asked, looking at the agent questioningly.
