Starting from the Planetary Governor Chapter 1312 - 746: Finding a Scapegoat

Gu Hang originally didn’t want to take action so directly, but there was no other way.

His personal involvent was initially intended to verify the intelligence.

However, the disguise technology of the Dark Spirit Race was indeed formidable, requiring a Psychic of his level to get close enough to see through it.

This technology must be cutting-edge for the Dark Spirit Race; otherwise, it wouldn’t have such an effect.

Not every Dark Spirit Race infiltrator can use this technology or possess a similar level. Otherwise, the group causing trouble in the Spiderweb Domain wouldn’t have been caught so easily by the Anti-Extraterrestrial Alliance.

But precisely because he was close enough to uncover it, the Dark Spirit Race infiltrator also realized he had been discovered.

He imdiately tried to flee.

Then Gu Hang had no choice but to go hands-on to catch him.

Only Gu Hang could do this.

The power level of this dark infiltrator was actually quite astonishing. Ordinary agents couldn’t possibly capture him. His direct combat ability was likely on par with the Company Champion among the Interstellar Warriors, not to ntion his mastery of various concealnt, escape, and mind-befuddling special tactics.

To quickly and quietly resolve the target, only Gu Hang could do the job.

And once he took action, it was better to resolve everything cleanly.

That’s why Gu Hang personally led the team to directly raid Yu Jinwen’s residence.

Without hesitation, everyone was caught in one sweep.

The Foreign Affairs Bureau agents focused on capturing Yu Jinwen himself, while Gu Hang first did a circuit to capture all the infiltrators.

The results were very clear; a total of seventeen Dark Spirit Race infiltrators were caught by Gu Hang, all were senior aides of the High Lord Mansion.

This was the core reason why Gu Hang dared to act.

What is the Foreign Affairs Bureau? It’s the intelligence departnt of the Alliance, subordinate to the Alliance Ambassador, stationed on Holy Terra. They simply gather intelligence, usually staying within limits, only gathering public information, doing analysis work, sotis covertly watching people, without really crossing the line. They rarely insert spies or infiltrate other forces’ interiors to barely survive, making people turn a blind eye.

They have no enforcent power on Holy Terra whatsoever.

Even targeting a civilian would be a breach of conduct, let alone raiding a High Lord representative’s residence and capturing this authorized representative.

If this spreads, it will cause a great stir.

No matter how reasonable the cause, without enforcent rights, troubling a High Lord representative is considered very rebellious, with very high political risk.

Gu Hang acted partly because he was forced into a corner, unable to let those skilled in hiding Dark Spirit Race infiltrators escape, especially when they’d noticed.

Additionally, he had so redial asures.

He had no enforcent rights, but so people did.

The Legal Departnt and Tribunal both could.

The forr was difficult to call upon now. The Minister of Justice was currently an acting minister entirely under Zebert’s influence, not part of the High Lord Council; they couldn’t withstand this.

The Tribunal could withstand it, especially the specialized Anti-Extraterrestrial Alliance, most suitable for such a task. Also, Gu Hang had good relations with them, among the three Tribunal factions.

But, Gu Hang thought it over and still didn’t seek their help.

Good relations are good, but not to the extent of ’being my own people.’ Would the Tribunal be willing to bear the ’illegal raid on a High Lord’ burden for Gu Hang?

Very unlikely.

This offends people greatly.

Even if willing, it cos with a significant political handle for the Tribunal, requiring Gu Hang to pay a hefty price, yielding considerable interests to satisfy the Tribunal’s appetite.

In this regard, good relations only offer a threshold to engage with them. Others might not even cross this threshold.

The Tribunal may only serve as a backup.

Besides the Tribunal and Legal Departnt, the most suitable entity to bear the burden — the Imperial Forbidden Army.

This bunch of corn kernels have the hardest heads. They can bear any scandal, not afraid of trouble from anyone — because no one dares.

Elsewhere, Gu Hang couldn’t approach them. The Forbidden Army has no interest in matters outside the Imperial Palace.

But Yu Jinwen, as a High Lord representative, resides within the Imperial Palace.

Logically, the entire palace’s security is the Forbidden Army’s responsibility. Hence, the appearance of Alien infiltrators here should be their responsibility, indisputable.

To so extent, they should be responsible.

Just no one dares to pursue this responsibility.

But after his last interaction with Marshal Yan Xinzhen, Gu Hang realized this ancient Forbidden Army Commander was quite principled, not likely to shirk responsibility.

After consideration, he made a decision and contacted the Forbidden Army.

Yan Xinzhen had given him a direct communication device.

Once connected, after a few simple words, the exchange between Gu Hang and Yan Xinzhen ended.

Monts later, golden rays appeared on the horizon.

Over twenty Imperial Guard soldiers arrived swiftly on hover vehicles and tactical hover bikes at the scene.

Following Gu Hang’s arrangents, the Foreign Affairs Bureau agents yielded position early, avoiding any interaction with the Forbidden Army. Upon confirming the Forbidden Army took over the entire mansion along with all captives, without anyone troubling them, the agents quietly withdrew.

Only leaving Gu Hang himself here to welco the nurous Imperial Guards.

This bunch of corn kernels did not trouble Gu Hang.

Two Imperial Guards ca over, one guarded Yu Jinwen, the other took Gu Hang aside to wait.

Gu Hang cooperated well.

What he needed to know was already extracted from Yu Jinwen and the minds of the captured infiltrators, subdued to the point they couldn’t even commit suicide. At this ti, he no longer needed to do anything.

The Forbidden Army’s attitude was relatively courteous, considering Gu Hang was recently invited by the Marshal to visit. Moreover, among them, the terrifying intelligence of Gu Hang’s spiritual power spreads. Every mber of the Forbidden Army is considered a top expert. For that reason, they are more aware of just how terrifying Gu Hang’s spiritual power is.

The leading commander of the Forbidden Army soon approached Gu Hang personally.

Under his helt, Gu Hang couldn’t see his expression, but he anticipated the other party wasn’t in a good mood.
