"There's no such thing as ghosts; all ghosts are just people in disguise. They can't possibly exist. Even if they did, they'd be in a separate parallel world, having no interaction at all with us humans."

"So, it seems there's a lot going on here. Moreover, there should be someone else in charge here, referred to as Captain Yang. I just had a brief encounter with him, and he seems to be someone very important. We must dig up some information from him."

"Captain Yang, you mean, he's the security chief here?"

"Exactly, this chief is completely different from the ones they've described to me before. He's just very well-hidden and hasn't been discovered by other people."

"If that's the case, then it seems we need to get some clues from him, right?"

"Also, whenever you're in front of anyone else, don't show any of your abilities. Just act like a simple secretary helping me with everyday tasks. You don't need to worry about anything else."

"Okay, I get it, just a disguise, right? This is something I'm very adept at."

"Alright, I'm going to call him now. You just play along with whatever I say later, no need to say anything extra."

"Got it."

After he finished speaking, Anying just nodded and then started walking back and forth around the room.

After all, they might be here for a long time to come, so Anying needed to be in real-time control of every corner of the room and know which areas were the weakest and which were the strongest.

A couple of minutes later, they heard a knock at the door. Ye Chen glanced at Anying, who then went straight to the door and opened it.

"Mr. Ye, is he not here?"

When Captain Yang saw a beautiful woman appearing before him, he was indeed a little surprised.

Ye Chen had just called him over to discuss some matters. How did it turn into a woman in the blink of an eye?

"Oh, Mr. Ye is inside. I'm his secretary. Please come in."

While saying this, Anying stepped aside to let Captain Yang in. As he walked past Anying, he couldn't help but glance at her from the corner of his eye.

With her figure and looks, coupled with her outfit today, Anying was indeed very captivating.

Any man who saw her would probably have some improper thoughts about her.

"Mr. Ye."

He then proceeded to bow respectfully to Ye Chen.

"Oh, Captain Yang, no need to stand on ceremony. We'll be dealing with each other quite a bit from now on. Come, take a seat and let's talk."

"Oh, okay, Mr. Ye, got it."

He then pulled out a chair and sat down properly. Ye Chen noticed a subtle detail; Captain Yang did not sit fully on the chair, only occupying about a third of it. This clearly showed his professional training and respect towards the person in front of him.

It's no wonder that after 10 years here, handling all sorts of relationships with such finesse, he must have more than simple capabilities.

Ye Chen surveyed Captain Yang again; he was still wearing the same clothes as earlier, but now they were neatly arranged, with every pocket buttoned closed.

"Captain Yang, I heard you've been here for 10 years, is that correct?"

"Yes, when I count it now, it's almost 11 years. It's likely more than 10."

"Always been the security chief?"

"Not at all. When I first came here, I was just a junior security guard. It was only later that the higher-ups appreciated my work and promoted me to security chief, which just happened a few years ago."

"Oh, I guess everything seems fine, but when I was downstairs, I noticed there were three surveillance cameras. Are those not connected to our 15th floor?"

"Correct, those are some old cameras left behind, and they have not been integrated with the system upstairs. I've mentioned this before, emphasizing the need to connect them to ensure our security."

"Yeah, I was just thinking about that. Why has it been delayed? And reconnecting three cameras doesn't seem like a massive project, right?"

"Mr. Ye, as you know, I'm just someone who follows orders. My suggestions can only go so far, and if the higher-ups don't implement them, there's not much I can do."

"Okay, leave the replacement of the cameras to you. Contact an equipment supplier who is familiar and proficient in business, and get those three cameras replaced by today, or at the latest, tomorrow."

"Sure, no problem. But to replace this equipment, we probably need a signature from the higher-ups."

"A signature from above? What do you mean?"

"Oh, you may not be aware that we are only responsible for security; whether it's buying anything, even just a stool or a kettle, it must have a signature from above because we have no procurement authority."

"A security department this big without procurement authority?"

Ye Chen seemed puzzled.

If a company wants to control expenses, he could understand that, but he thought that at the very least his department should have some discretionary power for minor expenditures. However, he found out they didn't have any at all.

"No, we have never had procurement authority, so we need a signature for this."

"Okay, then who do you get a signature from for something like this, Mr. Guo?"

"Not Mr. Guo; this wouldn't escalate to him for such minor equipment replacements. If he had to personally sign off on everything, he'd be bothered by these matters every day. All such things are represented by Mr. Huang."
