Chapter 125 Encountering His Teacher
+25 BONUS
Everyone present was a bit dumbfounded. However, they quickly understood Caspian’s intention.
“Comrade Joey doesn’t lack the qualifications. As far as I know, she has always been diligent in her duties and frequently tore down the territories of the Flying Dragons. Such a person is fit to be the inspector general.
“Who else can take on this role if she can’t?” a figure from Southlake City remarked.
“Indeed! When Joey was at the Rocky Den, she managed to capture many criminals. I fully support her becoming the new inspector general!”
“Exactly! Joey is the most suitable person to hold the position of inspector general!”
All those present listed Joey’s achievements and contributions one after another.
“I didn’t expect Joey to have so many achievements. However, the selection of the inspector general is your decision,” Caspian said calmly.
His goals had been achieved.
Hearing Caspian’s words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
“Now that the decision is made, let’s implement this matter quickly. The Inspector General’s office is a large department and can’t be without a leader!” Caspian remarked.
“Yes, sir! I will immediately get this done,” said the deputy governor of the Two Lakes area.
“The first matter is concluded. Now, there’s another issue,” Caspian continued.
Upon hearing that there was another matter to be handled, everyone became nervous again. They feared the matter might be related to them.
“This matter involves Zachary, the regional chief in the Two Lakes area, who attempted to sell classified documents to Tigra. His situation was extremely grave as it was considered treason. He was captured by me and has been executed!” Caspian stated.
Everyone was utterly shocked to hear this.
They had heard some rumors about John surrounding the Embassy of Tigra with his troops. However, no one had anticipated that Caspian had already executed Zachary.
Zachary was the regional chief in the Two Lakes area, yet he was executed by Caspian. This showed the immense power Caspian held!

“No need to be surprised. The King had granted me this execution authority,” Caspian said
calmly.
Upon hearing his words, everyone suddenly realized that the King had given Caspian such huge power!
However, they couldn’t understand why the good–for–nothing Caspian was highly regarded by Balthazar.
“Actually, I didn’t intend to take on the role of head of the investigative team. But since His Majesty granted it, I had to comply. I hope you won’t end up like Ezekiel and Zachary. Otherwise, I assure you, your fate will be worse than theirs!” Caspian said coldly.
Hearing this, those who had previously committed misdeeds became restless.
“If you perform your duties well like Joey, I’ll ask the higher authorities to reward you!” Caspian added.
“As for the new governor of the Two Lakes area, this position will be handled by the higher- ups,” Caspian said calmly.
Even so, the attendees felt unprecedented pressure. They could only obediently listen as they were afraid to even breathe audibly.
“One last thing, the fact that Sylvia and I are in charge of the investigative team must not be leaked. After all, we’re also here to conduct an investigation secretly. If anyone leaks my identity, be prepared to face consequences!” Caspian stated expressionlessly.
“We will definitely keep this a secret!” everyone hurriedly assured.
“Well, the meeting ends here. You can all go back and attend to your own matters,” Caspian
said then he stood up and left.
Sylvia followed him out of the conference room.
Throughout the entire meeting, she didn’t utter a word.
Later, Caspian had Sylvia drive him around Southlake City.
There were no more conflicts in South Aridlands, and the parasites of Southlake City were. gone. Since Caspian was in charge of the investigative team, he needed to understand the situation in Southlake City.
As they drove down a street, he noticed six or seven thugs assaulting a vendor in the distance.
Vegetables were scattered on the ground. Although many bystanders were watching, no one stepped in to help.
Upon closer inspection, Caspian realized that the woman being beaten was his former teacher,

Back then when he was in high school, everyone looked down on him for being poor.
But Stephanie valued him greatly. She provided him with help in both life and studies. She even occasionally supported Caspian financially.
Caspian had always been grateful to her. Even after achieving success, he had visited Stephanie at his old high school but had never revealed his true identity.
Unexpectedly, he encountered his former teacher here today.
There were several thugs kicking and punching her.
Seeing this, Caspian was furious.
“Stop the car!” he shouted.
He was enraged and puzzled. He wondered how his teacher ended up as a street vendor.
“Caspian, it’s better if you don’t show yourself. Let me handle it,” Sylvia said as she stopped
the car.
“The woman being attacked used to be my homeroom teacher, Ms. Wildman,” Caspian said. He was full of anger as he stepped out of the car.
Sylvia was taken aback. She couldn’t believe Caspian’s homeroom teacher was being attacked in public!
Having worked with him, she had also heard him mention Stephanie.
Hence, she quickly got out of the car too.
“You haven’t paid your stall fee! If you don’t pay, I’ll beat you to death!” a blonde man. grabbed Stephanie’s hair as he shouted.
“I… I don’t have money,” Stephanie cried out.
“No money? Hit her!” the blonde man said angrily.
Just as his subordinates were about to strike, a furious roar came from behind them. “Stop it!”
Startled by the sudden voice, everyone present was taken aback.
Even the thugs stopped in action as they turned to look behind them.
They saw a burly man with an intimidating presence that made everyone tremble in fear striding over.
Meanwhile, behind him was a stunning woman.

Caspian approached Stephanie and grabbed the wrist of the person who had hit her.
As the sound of bones breaking echoed, the blonde man screamed in agony. His wrist was crushed by Caspian..
Immediately after, Caspian delivered a kick to his stomach.
The blonde man groaned before flying backward, crashing hard on the ground and coughing up blood.
The onlookers were bewildered as they witnessed the scene.
The other thugs were preparing to attack Caspian, but Sylvia had already stepped in.
Her movements were swift as she struck the thugs with incomprehensible speed.
The thugs screamed in agony as they fell to the ground.
When Caspian saw that Sylvia was dealing with them, he assisted Stephanie to stand up.
