"If it succeeds, the benefits will be enormous. Why wouldn't we take this opportunity..."

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er smiled and said, "Your Highness, you're right..."

Xiao Ce then looked at Da Lei.

Da Lei nodded vigorously: "Your Highness, I will listen to you. Moreover, I think this plan is feasible. As you said, if this matter succeeds, the benefits will far outweigh the risks... and we will not suffer any losses!"

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Da Lei said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, shall I go and train them properly now?"

Xiao Ce nodded.

Seeing Da Lei's hesitation, Xiao Ce said to him, "Da Lei, this is all under control, so you can rest assured. This robot will definitely listen to you..."

Da Lei saw that Xiao Ce had already guessed what he was thinking before he could even speak.

With a look of surprise and astonishment, she said, "Your Highness, how did you know? I was afraid he wouldn't believe me?"

Xiao Ce looked at Da Lei's expression, smiled, and then said, "Because just by looking at you, I can guess what you're thinking at a glance. After all, we've been together for so long; if we wouldn't say we know each other inside and out, we certainly know each other very well..."

"So, my idea is that we hide these people first, and then prevent them from showing themselves. When they do come looking for us, we'll say that's how we found them... As long as they think I didn't order them to do anything, they shouldn't expect us to be able to control these robots..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Da Lei nodded.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Da Lei took the robot off to train.

The other pile of materials was put into a box and stored away.

Xiao Ce was preparing to return the item to its rightful owner...

Yin Pan'er said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, do you think anyone will come looking for these people when the time comes?"

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce smiled and then said to her, "Pan'er, I think they will... they will come..."

Yin Pan'er nodded after hearing Xiao Ce's words.

Xiao Ce didn't take these things too seriously, and simply went to rest with Yin Pan'er.

...

The following day, in Lingas, because they did not keep the news under wraps.

Moreover, under Morgana's instructions, those intelligence reports were circulating throughout Lingas City.

People gathered in the city of Lingas and talked about it.

Moreover, what they were talking about was this...

That is the intricate relationship between Gandhi and those terrorists.

Everyone started denouncing Gandhi as a bastard...

No one caused trouble because of eating bread.

Morgana was still happy to receive the news, as her biggest worry was the riots.

Fortunately, these people did not come to cause a riot.

Morgana went directly to find Xiao Ce.

Xiao Ce and Yin Pan'er were having breakfast.

After Morgana arrived.

Xiao Ce looked at Morgana, who appeared somewhat haggard, and said, "Morgana, judging from your appearance, you didn't sleep well last night..."

Morgana gave an awkward smile, then said, "Indeed, I deployed quite a few people to patrol and secretly increased troop strength, fearing some kind of riot... However, it seems I was overthinking it..."

After Yin Pan'er brought Morgana over for dinner, she said to Morgana while they ate, "So, are the people not feeling any negative emotions right now?"

Morgana smiled broadly upon hearing Yin Pan'er's words, then nodded: "That's right. Gandhi's bread is indeed delicious, but as Mr. Ce said... that bread is important, but not essential for the people... while Frank is far more important to them..."

"So, some people spontaneously boycotted the Gandhi Food Store...and the people at the Gandhi Food Store were arrested."

After hearing Morgana's words, Yin Pan'er smiled and then said, "It seems Your Highness is right..."

As Yin Pan'er spoke, she noticed that Xiao Ce remained silent.

Yin Pan'er said to Xiao Ce, "Your Highness, why aren't you saying anything... Do you feel that something is wrong?"

Xiao Ce nodded to Yin Pan'er, then said to Morgana, "Morgana, that's good. You don't need to be overly tense, but you also shouldn't be overly relaxed..."

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er exclaimed in surprise, "Your Highness, do you mean that this matter is not so simple?"

Xiao Ce nodded: "That's right, there's definitely something wrong with the bread he made... However, we still don't know what the problem is..."

Upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, Yin Pan'er smiled broadly and nodded, saying, "Your Highness, I think so too... I feel it's somewhat similar to those other miraculous ointments..."

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce nodded and then said, "That's right, there is indeed a connection... I think there must be some similarities... Back when we were in Xiao Kingdom, it took us some effort to ban this... and there certainly wouldn't be any reaction in the short term..."

Upon hearing Xiao Ce and Yin Pan'er's words, Morgana immediately became wary and asked, "Mr. Ce, Acting Agent Yin, what should we do? Should we take any precautions beforehand...?"

Yin Pan'er looked at Xiao Ce.

Because Yin Pan'er couldn't think of a better solution in a short time...

"I can't think of a better solution right now. After all, we don't know anything about their situation... We need to find the right remedy first... Your Highness, do you have any good ideas?"

After hearing Yin Pan'er's words, Xiao Ce smiled and then said, "I really do have a way..."

Yin Pan'er and Morgana both looked at Xiao Ce with curiosity.

Morgana, in particular, looked very nervous.

Xiao Ce could see that Morgana was a truly responsible person; she treated this place as her own territory.

He truly considered these individuals as his own.

Xiao Ce said, "You can speak frankly about whatever you have to say; there's no need to hide anything. We directly suspect that there are additives in this bread, but what effects these substances have on the body is something you are currently investigating and researching... The specific effects still require your investigation and research..."

Morgana said to Xiao Ce, "Mr. Ce, wouldn't saying this cause a disturbance?"

Xiao Ce said to Morgana, "This will definitely cause some panic, but that's when you leaders need to demonstrate your competence and responsibility..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Morgana nodded repeatedly, as he truly had no other options at the moment.

Of course, it's not that I didn't think about it; in fact, I did think about many things...

However, she did indeed think of other, better methods, but all the methods she could think of had their own limitations...

Seeing that they didn't interrupt, Xiao Ce began to speak slowly and deliberately...

"Next, you will take responsibility, apologize along with the public, and promise to see it through to the end..."

Xiao Ce's single sentence made Morgana's expression awkward.

"Take responsibility? Isn't that just scapegoating? This has nothing to do with us at all..."

After hearing Morgana's words, Xiao Ce smiled and said, "Hey, you're overthinking it..."

"I'm asking you to take responsibility, not to be a scapegoat. Taking responsibility simply means taking responsibility for your dereliction of duty, which is negligence on the part of regulators. But this responsibility is just lip service... it has no real effect... the public knows that this responsibility really has little to do with you..."

"It's just creating the impression that you've taken responsibility and will see it through to the end. That way, even if people panic, they'll be calmed by your commitment to responsibility, and you'll promise to compensate them if there are any problems... That's really all there is to it. And if a problem can be solved with money, then it's not a problem at all..."

"Actually, all so-called fear stems from the unknown... If you handle these matters well and provide a safety net for them, they won't be afraid. As long as they're not afraid and have confidence, there won't be riots or disturbances..."

Morgana smiled broadly after hearing Xiao Ce's words and said, "That's right, Mr. Ce, you're right, you're absolutely right..."

"Great, I know what to do next!"

Xiao Ce nodded.

Morgana continued, "By the way, Mr. Ce, there's one more thing..."

Xiao Ce said to Morgana, "Morgana, do you want to ask about Gandhi...?"

Morgana smiled after hearing Xiao Ce's words, and then said, "That's right, according to our people, he's not afraid at all inside, as if he has something to rely on..."

Xiao Ce said to Morgana, "Then let's not make her so comfortable... Actually, we don't need to make them comfortable..."

Morgana asked Xiao Ce, "What do you mean?"

Xiao Ce said to Morgana, "Here's what we'll do: have Xiaoyue go with you later...go and give him a good beating..."

Morgana still had some concerns, saying, "Mr. Ce, wouldn't that backfire? What if we anger him..."

Xiao Ce smiled at Morgana and said, "What is he anyway... Getting him to speak up now is a favor to him, giving him a chance... If he doesn't seize this opportunity... we won't give him another chance..."

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Morgana nodded: "So, you just wanted to torture him?"

Xiao Ce smiled at Morgana and then said, "That's right, I just want to torture him... Actually, the most skillful interrogation isn't anything else, it's breaking his spirit... Besides, I don't think this Gandhi is that important... Since he wants to play mind games with us, I'll just break his spirit directly... Whether he talks or not won't affect us..."

Morgana smiled and nodded when she heard Xiao Ce say that.

Just as they were talking, Morgana looked around and asked, "By the way, those so-called robots you captured..."

Xiao Ce said to Morgana, "Let's lock them up..."

Morgana looked at Xiao Ce with some doubt: "Mr. Ce, are they locked up? Aren't those people very powerful? Can't we keep them locked up?"

Xiao Ce said to Morgana, "That robot was fighting with the one Boudica brought back, and it seemed to malfunction, but it looks fine now..."

Yin Pan'er noticed that Xiao Ce seemed to be hiding something from Morgana.

However, she didn't interrupt. Yin Pan'er knew that Xiao Ce was hiding something, or perhaps he had other reasons...

After hearing Xiao Ce's words, Morgana smiled and nodded, then said, "Okay, I don't know how I can help... Please contact me immediately if you need anything..."

Xiao Ce smiled at Morgana and then said, "Don't worry. That's for sure... We should keep these robots. If their owners come looking for them later... we'll return them to their rightful owners..."

Morgana was shocked upon hearing Xiao Ce's words, and then said, "Their master dares to show himself..."

Xiao Ce smiled at Morgana, then said, "You never know..."

Morgana nodded, accepting Xiao Ce's help this time.

Morgana still has a lot to do.

After offering a few words of comfort, Morgana hurriedly left.

Xiao Ce looked at Yin Pan'er, who was looking at him, and asked, "Are you trying to ask me why I didn't tell the truth about the robots, since I actually trust Morgana quite a bit?"

Seeing that Xiao Ce had directly spoken her mind, Yin Pan'er quickly smiled and said, "You really are like a mind reader... Indeed, I am very curious..."

Xiao Ce smiled and explained, "It's actually very simple. The fewer people who know about this, the better. And it's always better that Morgana doesn't know about these things... After all, no one knows what might happen... After all, no one knows what those people will do... You, me, and Da Lei are always together... But Morgana and the others aren't... If they fall into their hands, the news will definitely leak out."
