The scene left the onlookers on the second floor in complete confusion.

Investigation Division 7 was supposed to have been called by Skylar, so why did they seem to be acting as Robin’s bodyguards instead?
And why had the division head, Adam, addressed Robin as a “general“?
What’s happening?
Everyone remembered that Zayn from the Westeria Residence had claimed Robin was no longer in the military.
Clearly, there was more going on than anyone realized.

Investigation Division 7 would not mobilize this way without orders from higher up in the military.
Skylar was even more bewildered, questioning if they were imagining things.
He knew that only top figures warranted the security detail Investigation Division 7 had sent.
Just moments a
he had heard Adam state they were here to protect Robin.
Could he have misjudged the situation entirely?
Skylar’s mind raced with confusion, and even Zayn, who had been observing quietly, was thrown off.
Why would Simon of Investigation Division 7 risk his career like this?
At their level, every decision was carefully calculated, and they would never stand up for someone irrelevant.
For individuals in such high–ranking positions, decisions were not about right or wrong but about what must or must not be done.
Their actions often transcend the logic and emotions of ordinary people, so Zayn found it difficult to grasp Simon’s approach.
Since the Springbrooke Mall incident yesterday, Zayn has been focused on addressing this issue.
Many officers under the Westeria Residence submitted reports and video evidence about Robin to the Special Operations Military Region Command and the military headquarters.
Commander Baxter and the top command should already have received these materials, documenting case against Robin.
Normally, the military’s disciplinary orders and directives from the Special Operations Military Region regarding Robin would have been circulated to all relevant departments by 6 PM.
As the agency responsible for national security, Investigation Division 7 should have been the first to receive and act on these orders.

Even if the order was highly classified, Division 7 would still be aware of it.

Given the situation, Simon should have been keeping Robin under surveillance, not sending protection.
Zayn was perplexed.
Then, a thought struck him: Talia.
Talia, one of Robin’s close subordinates, had shown a strong connection with him during yesterday’s
events.
Could Simon be acting out of consideration for his daughter, Talia?
It was widely known across Brighton that Simon was deeply protective of his only daughter.”
Heh, Simon, if you dare to be corrupt, I’ll be the first to report you!

If you’re protecting Robin for personal reasons, then get ready for retirement and a quiet life on a farm!
With this thought, Zayn stepped forward confidently. “Captain Caldwell,‘ he announced, Tm Zayn from the Westeria Residence.
“As I understand it, General Ramsey made a serious error yesterday, and the military is investigating.
“So, who authorized you to use such a large number of personnel to guard him?”
Adam, with a steely look, replied coldly. This is a top–secret order; I’m not at liberty to disclose anything. Step back immediately!”
The officers from Investigation Division 7 assumed defensive stances, guns drawn, prompting Zayn to reluctantly retreat.
Investigation Division 7 operated as a special unit directly under the military, acting with full autonomy and answerable to no other authority or department.
They possessed a unique authority: the power to execute any officer below the rank of general who interfered with their mission, without the need for prior reporting.
Adam’s unyielding stance left everyone in shock, including those from the Westeria Residence, who realized their influence held no sway here.
Zayn stood awkwardly, caught between pride and caution.
As the self–proclaimed “number one” of the Westeria Residence, he had just been rebuffed by a mere division head.
Seeing Zayn’s embarrassment, Michelle immediately jumped in, furious.
“Hey! Don’t you know who you’re talking to? Zayn is the heir from Westeria Residence! Are you looking for trouble?
“Zayn’s right! Robin killed four people at Springbrooke Mall yesterday….she continued.
Adam cut her off sharply. “Silence! Has no one informed you that top–secret information isn’t to be

leaked! Keep your mouth shut!”
“Click! Two officers leveled their guns at Michelle’s head. “Anyone who disrespects the general will face
death!”
Michelle immediately shut her eyes, terrified.
She remembered the confidential notice from Investigation Division 7 she’d received last night, warning that anyone leaking top–secret information would be held accountable.
“Back off!” the officers barked. “If you don’t, you’ll be charged with threatening a general and military secrets, and we’ll deal with you on the spot!”
Shaking. Michelle dropped to the ground and scrambled back to where she had stood moments earlier
After the initial shock, Catherine saw through the situation.
The military’s stance on the Springbrooke Mall incident was now unmistakably clear.
Looking down at the trembling Michelle, Catherine sneered, “With that level of intelligence, trying to navigate this world is only going to get you killed.”
