Chapter 1338: Need You to Go Fishing
"Then... what exactly do you want me to do?" Su Yu shrugged. "I don't seem to be able to do much, right?"
At the same time, they had already walked side by side to the office door.
Luman Greed gave him a meaningful smile. "Hehe, let me keep you in suspense for a bit. Let's go inside and talk."
"Alright." Su Yu nodded helplessly.
...
Upon entering the office, everyone in the room immediately turned to look at them.
The gazes cast at Su Yu were varied—awe, curiosity, envy, jealousy... naturally, envy and jealousy were the most common.
"This is my secretary and the head of the Comprehensive Office of the Security Department, Bella." Luman Greed introduced the silver-skinned woman standing next to his desk first.
"Hello, Councilor Su Yu!" Bella, dressed in a professional secretary outfit, quickly made a friendly gesture, her expression quite excited.
"Hello." Su Yu returned the greeting.
"This is Deputy Minister Sinan Ge... This is Deputy Minister Marlaneel... These are the heads of various star zones... These are the experts from the advisory team." Luman Greed introduced everyone in turn.
The office was filled with four or five rows of people, each row containing over a dozen, bustling with activity.
Among them, only Bella stood behind the desk.
In front of the desk, on the right side facing the desk, stood the two deputy ministers of the Security Department; on the left side, stood the experts from the advisory team.
Like the officials, the experts from the advisory team played a significant role.
The reason for the advisory team had to do with the official system of the Fig Hub.
Considering the need to "serve the people," the government officials of the Fig Hub were often high-ranking cultivators, especially the top officials.
The ministers of major departments were all at least Planetary Rank 5, and half of the deputy ministers were Planetary Rank, with the lowest being Peak Rank 8.
The benefit of this was that orders were executed swiftly, and the lower ranks dared not question the commands from the upper ranks, making the government highly efficient.
However, the downside was a lack of professionalism.
Take Luman Greed, for example. He had never managed security before. Did he know how to handle security issues? No, he didn't.
This was where the experts from the advisory team came in.
The experts from the advisory team were specialized researchers in security management, responsible for providing strategies and advice to the department.
If the Security Department were an army, the officials would be the generals, and the advisory team would undoubtedly be the strategists.
...
As soon as Su Yu arrived, all eyes were on him, unable to look away.
Su Yu greeted everyone calmly.
He was not uncomfortable with the gazes that treated him like a rare animal, knowing that many more surprising things awaited them in the future!
"Cough, cough." After the introductions, Luman Greed cleared his throat to draw everyone's attention back to him.
Su Yu, understandingly, found a spot to stand. He chose the first row, standing next to the two deputy ministers.
Both deputy ministers cast him friendly glances. Sinan Ge, like Su Yu, was Planetary Rank 1, while Marlaneel was Peak Rank 8, so their friendly glances were tinged with a hint of respect.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is our Deputy Minister, Su Yu." Luman Greed introduced him to everyone. "Due to well-known reasons, Deputy Minister Su Yu has not been able to report to the Security Department until now.
Today, he has finally joined the Security Department. Let's welcome him together!"
(Applause)
Everyone simultaneously made a welcoming gesture, the most common welcoming way in the Holy Silver Federation.
Su Yu immediately smiled and returned the gesture, then spoke seriously: "I'm delighted to join the Security Department and meet everyone today! As the former owner of AI Blue Whale, I will actively cooperate to complete the Blue Whale's deployment work. I hope everyone will work together!"
"Ha ha, Deputy Minister Su Yu, no need to be so formal." Luman Greed smiled and continued: "Now that you've joined the Security Department, we're all family. I hope we can work together to complete the tasks assigned by the government and the people."
Next, he turned to face everyone, his expression turning solemn: "Alright, let's begin the meeting. Bella, please start today's agenda."
"Understood, Minister." Bella opened her wrist panel, her expression equally solemn.
She faced everyone and spoke seriously: "In yesterday's meeting, we mainly discussed the department's transformation.
In the future, our department's personnel will be reduced to one-tenth of the current number, and we will focus on working with AI Blue Whale."
Bella glanced at Su Yu, who nodded slightly, indicating he was already aware of these plans.
Bella nodded and continued: "As for today's agenda, it's the biggest challenge our Security Department has faced since its establishment."
Her expression turned increasingly serious: "As Minister Luman Greed mentioned in the parliamentary meeting earlier—'Before AI Blue Whale is deployed, there will definitely be lawless individuals trying to take advantage of the last opportunity.'
Our Security Department is currently facing low morale, and we're about to face this enormous challenge. It's the most critical moment for our department since its establishment! I hope everyone can boost their spirits, unite, and work together to overcome this final hurdle!"
The meeting room fell silent, with all officials and advisory team members remaining silent. However, their spirits had simultaneously become more vibrant.
Indeed, they were about to face their last and most difficult challenge.
...
Su Yu didn't have much to think about regarding these matters; he was still pondering why Luman Greed had summoned him.
Just then, Luman Greed's gaze fell upon him.
"Deputy Minister Su Yu." Luman Greed smiled. "The reason I asked you to report to the department is also related to this matter."
Upon hearing this, Su Yu's spirit stirred, and he finally got to the point!
He immediately asked, "Please elaborate, what does the department need me to do?"
"We need you to 'go fishing.'" Luman Greed spoke seriously.
