William's attitude showed that Victor could not get more information from him.
He judged that the things William did not want to talk about should be related to the escaped slaves mentioned by the middle-level inspectors of the Inspection Bureau.
When it comes to his own safety, Victor will not give up tracking the man named Albert easily.
So, he arrived at the Inspection Bureau again, but instead of looking for the inspector who had the previous meeting, he went directly upstairs to find out where else other than the archives, more confidential information would be stored.
Because he has supervisory-level authority, it stands to reason that he also has the right to know the information that the supervisors at the meeting know.
Sure enough, he found out that there were higher-level archives rooms above the fifth floor, so he went directly up there.
But when he asked people again on the fifth floor, he was blocked.
The man who stopped Victor was unfamiliar and Victor didn't recognize him, but even though he saw his badge, he still stopped him decisively.
This proves that this person is at least a supervisor.
The inspections of the Inspection and Inspection Bureau are management positions and basically do not leave the building for work. Their task is to supervise internal work, and the activity areas are all above the fifth floor.
Victor did not see this person appear in the previous meeting, but the other party still refused to let him continue, which really made him feel helpless.
"Although you also have the badge of inspector, the Inspection Bureau is not like the Anti-Suppression Department. You can ask any investigator or other officer to do things for you, but if you want to continue going upstairs when you get here, you must obtain authorization."
The other party was standing in front of him, his tone was very calm, and he could be said to be giving good advice.
Victor frowned. He accepted the persuasion, but secretly planned to use the water spell to sneak up after going down.
However, at this moment, a young man with long white wavy hair, who seemed to have albinism, suddenly came from the end of the corridor.
He naturally stopped the inspector in front of Victor: "Is there any problem?"
The inspector replied: "This elite agent No. 99 is from the Department of Defense and Suppression. He hopes to obtain higher-level files."
The two of them asked and answered questions. The white-haired young man who came later was wearing a tight black shirt, and his body proportions looked like a male model that Victor had seen in his previous life.
His skin is smoother than that of women, pale and morbidly beautiful.
Victor noticed the pendant on the other person's neck. It was a delicate item that looked like an angel spreading its wings.
While Victor was looking at the pendant, the white-haired young man was also looking at him.
Suddenly, Victor heard something unexpected from the other party's mouth.
"Ask him to come with me, and I will take him there..."
These words surprised the inspector who stopped Victor, and his subsequent questioning revealed the identity of the white-haired young man.
"Deputy Director Griffith, are you sure?"
"Of course... you can go do your own work."
The young deputy director simply dismissed the inspector, then turned to look at Victor.
"Come with me, Agent 99, our director is waiting for you."
…
Unexpectedly, Victor actually met the top manager of the Inspection Bureau, and the other party seemed to know in advance that he would come.
This was very bizarre. After he came out of William's office, he went directly to the Inspection Bureau without communicating with anyone on the way. It was impossible for anyone to know that he planned to dig out clues about the escaped slave here.
Wait...he had to double check.
So, when Victor followed the deputy director, he tentatively asked him: "Do you know I will come over?"
Griffith calmly led the way and told him in the same calm voice - yes.
"Then do you know what I plan to do when I go up to the fifth floor?" Victor continued to test.
Griffith glanced at him slightly, with an unknown smile on his lips: "You want to find out about that slave."
really……
They were all guessed, and Victor couldn't help but feel a little horrified.
But immediately, Griffith explained to him the basis for his judgment: "You kept asking about this matter in previous meetings, so Mr. Director speculated that you would probably come back to look for clues."
That's it...
Victor was relieved after hearing this. He thought the other party could read minds, but it seemed that he was overthinking it.
Soon, the white-haired deputy director led him outside a room on the seventh floor of the highest floor. Judging from the size of the double doors, Victor thought he should have arrived outside the office of the director of the Inspection Bureau.
"The director is inside, you go in!" Grifis came here and stood by the door in a very polite manner. His behavior was more like the assistant to the director than the deputy director.
Looking at the dark and heavy double doors, Victor felt a different pressure than in William's office.
He was a little uneasy and asked Griffith: "How should I call Mr. Director?"
"Trini Mark..." Griffith said the name as if reciting lines.
As the deputy director closed his mouth, Victor nodded, took a deep breath, and then pushed open the heavy double black doors.
…
The office of the director of the Police Bureau was completely different from what Victor had imagined. The space inside was completely different from what he had imagined in his mind.
This office seems to occupy the entire building area of the seventh floor.
The ground is made of dark, unknown stone with no visible brick joints. Nothing is placed in the hundreds of square meters of open space. There is only a thick seat at the front with its back to the door, facing the large floor-to-ceiling glass windows, overlooking the Independence Square in front.
And the entire city with the distant skyline.
There is no wallpaper on the walls, but stone is also used. In some places, relief-like patterns are made, and the patterns have an artistic style that transcends this era. In other places, murals are hung, and sculptures are placed against the walls.
All in all, the decoration of this office does not look like the aesthetics that this world should have. It is a bit ahead of its time. It is more like the room of the villain BOSS that Victor saw on TV in his previous life.
There was no one else in the room, and Victor could see it at a glance, so he finally fixed his gaze on the heavy seat with his back to him.
If the director was sitting in that place waiting for Victor, he would really look like a villainous boss.
He cautiously approached the throne-like seat, stopped a few meters away from the other party, and then said hello: "Director Trini Mark?"
Following his inquiry, the thick seat slowly turned around.
There was no answer, and the true face of the director of the Lushan Police Bureau was revealed directly in front of Victor.
He was much older than Victor thought, at least in his seventies.
But I am very energetic, wearing a gray bathrobe-like robe, with my back leaning against a thick seat. Under my completely white hair is a wrinkled face, and the expression on my face is like the kind that scares others away from seeing it for the first time.
Other seriousness.
I don’t know why, maybe because of his eyesight, Director Trini wore a pair of dark sunglasses.
"You're here...Agent 99."
His voice was heavy and trembling, as if it was about to die, and it made people think that this was the tone that a dead person would make.
After just one encounter, Victor felt very uncomfortable and didn't want to be with the director for a moment.
