The Head of the Civil Affairs Department was woken up at midnight by someone, and the caller's rank was slightly higher than his. Braving the heavy snow, he rushed to the department, cursing along the way and thinking, who on earth could this be? Summoning him at midnight—is it a reincarnation ceremony?
Besides, his work was only about managing marriage and divorce registrations and other trivial matters. He didn't even have the guts to accept bribes ordinarily. Now, with his term nearly over, he hoped nothing major would really happen.
Still, if this turned out to be nothing serious, he swore he'd give the caller an earful.
Upon arriving at the place and seeing the man step out of the car, all his simmering rage, sleepless exhaustion, instantly vanished.
He stood with his mouth agape for quite a while, snowflakes drifted into his mouth without him even noticing.
Anthony Davis said, "Hello, Director Oscar."
