Chapter 576: The Mysterious Leader, Romer

A call came through from the headquarters of the X Bureau in Clearwater.

"Jared, do you realize the consequences of your actions? What if it affects the morale of the entire bureau? Can you handle that responsibility?"

The one questioning Jared was Harry Jackson, the director of the X Bureau and Linden's direct superior.

Jared responded indifferently, his tone cold. "Does having my subordinates shot for no reason not affect morale?"

Harry Jackson sighed heavily. "If you have complaints, you should bring them up within the bureau. How can you take matters into your own hands? We have our own judgment regarding Hayden's matter."

"Who is Linden's direct superior? He arranged this mission; shouldn't he give us an explanation?" Jared was tired of wasting words with Harry Jackson.

It was always the same few phrases, solving nothing.

Since Harry Jackson had personally made the call, it indicated that this matter did not concern him.

The person behind it all was someone even Harry Jackson had to show deference to-a figure of significant importance.

"I know you have grievances with Linden. Although Linden assigned the mission to Hayden, someone has protected him. The bureau issued a severe warning and has cut off his path back to headquarters, effectively ruining his career. You are still young; think carefully before you act."

Seeing Harry Jackson deliberately avoiding his questions, Jared coldly said, "If you don't give me an explanation, I will go to the headquarters myself."

"You..." Harry Jackson sighed again, continuing to evade, "No matter who it is, it's not something someone at your level should know. Focus on assisting Linden with the affairs in Ashbury and keep an eye on GTO; it's been quiet there lately. That's all for now."

With that, Harry Jackson hung up.
