Mrs. Thompson left home, leaving only Zachary in the house. At the moment, Zachary was reclining in a chair, his thoughts drifting towards the mine.

As natural disasters struck one after another, the concentration in the air kept increasing, and things that had never existed on Blue Star were appearing continuously.

Blue Star should now be like the worlds advancing in the novels I once read, elevating from a lesser world to a middle-sized world.

However, thinking about the sniper rifle sent from Kyoto, Zachary knew that others were much more sensitive to the changes in the world than he had imagined.

At least others, while Zachary was still unaware, not only took the lead in discovering that some mineral deposits were gradually beginning to contain spiritual essence but also quietly started exploiting and utilizing them.

Zachary actually didn’t know that in Kyoto there were specialized departments exploring external changes after each round of natural disasters.

Only super-large cities like Kyoto would have the spare capacity to maintain such special departments during the time of natural disasters.

Speaking of Kyoto, what Zachary and the others didn’t know was that because of their missed appointment, people from Kyoto were preparing to fly over to find them.

Zachary, whose thoughts were scattering, suddenly heard a knock on the door. Using his Divine Sense to check, he realized it was Ye Liuyun coming to look for him at home.

Although he wasn’t sure why Ye Liuyun came to find him at this time, Zachary quickly got up to open the door for him.

Seeing Zachary opening the door, Ye Liuyun quickly stepped inside, then directly closed the main door before mysteriously saying to Zachary, "Brother, do you know who I found?"

Looking at Ye Liuyun’s mysterious demeanor, Zachary was completely puzzled.

Ye Liuyun, somewhat excited, had no intention of keeping Zachary hanging and directly said, "Do you remember that woman who scammed me when we were in Kyoto?

Yara attempted to capture her, only to catch a decoy, and no matter how we searched, we couldn’t find her again."

Hearing this from Ye Liuyun, Zachary instantly recalled the woman’s name; wasn’t she Butterfly from the four-person con artist group?

Thinking of her appearance, Zachary asked Ye Liuyun curiously, "What about her? Did you see them here at the camp?"

Hearing Zachary’s counter-question, a strange smile spread across Ye Liuyun’s face, "I definitely saw her, not only did I see her, but guess where I found her?"

"Where could you have seen her? Don’t tell me she has infiltrated the officials’ offices."

The officials’ offices were the newly established government agency where public affairs were processed in the camp, officially known as the Comprehensive Government Office Building. The first floor primarily handled personal affairs, the second floor was the workspace for various departments, and the third floor was the conference area and the offices of members like Elder Jefferson.

The number of management personnel in the various departments of the camp was not large, with many individuals holding multiple positions.

Before the disaster, one person in the government offices would handle ten different roles, but now, ten people’s jobs were done by one individual.

Though it seemed like fewer people were working, each position held greater authority, fewer staff meant fewer processes needed, and many tasks became much simpler.

The same job, post-disaster, was drastically different compared to its pre-disaster counterpart.

Before the disaster, the focus of the job was on the process; no matter the outcome, if it wasn’t done according to the workflow, even if the results were good, one would still be criticized by the higher-ups.

After the disaster, however, the focus was on the job results; regardless of the process, as long as the outcome met the leaders’ expectations, they wouldn’t question whether the process adhered to the workflow or not.

Upon hearing Zachary’s response, Ye Liuyun’s face instantly showed a look of surprise.

Seeing Ye Liuyun shocked into silence, Zachary explained in a slightly pretentious calm tone, "Think about how you were scammed initially, and under what circumstances we met her in Kyoto. That’s why I guessed she has managed to infiltrate the government offices again.

It’s not surprising, really; during our time in Kyoto, it was only Yara trying to capture her. The accompanying personnel from Pengcheng Government weren’t aware of the situation.

So, since she once blended in among the government officials, it wouldn’t be difficult for her to do it again.

Despite the ongoing disaster, our last trip to Kyoto was just like a business trip before the disaster.

Whether the outing was for learning or leisure doesn’t matter; it’s a trip that’s been gilded, and unless there’s an accident, one is bound to receive preferential treatment upon return."

Ye Liuyun actually understood the ins and outs; she was just thinking about how cleverly Butterfly had found a decoy to escape Yara’s capture in Kyoto.

He had thought that knowing someone was after her, she would find somewhere to hide and keep a low profile. But unexpectedly, she returned to Pengcheng once again and entered the government offices with high profile.

Only failing to think in that direction earlier, once reminded by Zachary, Ye Liuyun quickly understood the intricacies, hence the surprised look on his face gradually settled down much more.

When he calmed down, Ye Liuyun then spoke up, "After I saw her, I inquired around, and she has actually entered the civilian and logistics department in the camp, working under Rylan.

Do you think she might be planning to..."
