Chapter 991: Post-War Matters, Suggestions

"This is really too much. You actually left me behind during the operation. Do you still think I am a member of the ZAT?"

Inside the ZAT team's operations room, Higashi Kotaro puffed up his face in anger, expressing his strong dissatisfaction with not being included in the previous operation.

"Oh my, it's because you wanted to help that little girl named Kanae find her way home."

Seeing this, Shuhei Araki immediately stepped forward to comfort him.

"That's not to say you didn't even notify me."

With Shuhei Araki's comfort, Higashi Kotaro walked down the stairs. After all, he was not really angry. Instead, he seemed to be throwing a tantrum like a child.

"Don't worry, Dong. There will be opportunities in the future. You can do it this time."

Tadao Nanhara walked over, put his hand on Tokotaro's shoulder, and said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I'll forgive you this time, but next time don't abandon me during an operation." Higashi Kotaro said, and scanned the operations room. When he didn't see the person he wanted to see, he asked, "By the way, where are the advisors?"

"I don't know. Maybe in his office."

Kitajima Tetsuya shrugged and guessed.

"The advisor went to see Staff Officer Manabe early in the morning."

However, Asahina Yuutarou had more extensive information channels and gave the correct answer to the question.

"Hmm? What did the consultant ask Officer Manabe to do?"

After hearing what Asahina Yuutarou said, everyone suddenly became curious.

Everyone present knew what kind of status Chief of Staff Manabe held in the Sakura Country today.

Therefore, the fact that Gu Chen went to see Chief of Staff Manabe seemed to others to mean that something big might happen.

Just like before, when Gu Chen went to see Staff Officer Manabe, and then a short while later, the big news that the [Monster Nature Reserve] project was established came out.

This time, no one knows what kind of major event will happen after Gu Chen finds Chief of Staff Manabe.

It is impossible for everyone to say that they are not curious about this.

……

At the same time, in Chief of Staff Manabe's office.

Gu Chen sat upright in the chair in front of Staff Officer Manabe's desk, quietly waiting for Staff Officer Manabe to finish reading the report he had submitted.

The report does not contain much content. With Gu Chen's style, he would not write lengthy content without substantive meaning. He would just cram all the useful information onto a thin piece of paper.

Therefore, Staff Officer Manabe didn't take much time to finish reading the report submitted by Gu Chen.

However, regarding the contents of the report, Staff Officer Manabe said that he needed to think about it in order to digest the huge amount of information in the report.

Gu Chen was in no hurry to urge him, but just elegantly tasted the coffee brewed by the coffee machine in Staff Officer Manabe's office.

It must be said that the coffee here is much better than the coffee in the ZAT team's operations room. Gu Chen even wanted to take some coffee beans or coffee powder from Staff Officer Manabe and take it back to make his own coffee.

"So, what you mean is that the Ivy Monster Basara that appeared yesterday was born out of the resentment that the abandoned babies had towards the world?"

After a while, Staff Officer Manabe completely digested the information contained in Gu Chen's report, then he looked at Gu Chen and spoke to confirm.

"Yes, although this conclusion seems extremely unscientific, this situation does exist. If you are interested, Staff Officer Manabe, you may be able to find relevant records in ancient books."

Gu Chen nodded and answered affirmatively.

"So, what do you want me to help you with?"

Staff Officer Manabe did not hesitate too much and chose to believe Gu Chen directly. Then he put the report in his hand aside and asked Gu Chen why he came.

"Hey, it's not a big deal. I just want you to help revise some legal provisions regarding the abandonment of infants and young children."

Gu Chen grinned and didn't keep anyone in suspense, directly stating his purpose.

"What about your specific suggestions? You can't just leave me to figure out how to modify it without any ideas."

Staff Officer Manabe leaned back in his chair and waited for Gu Chen to speak.

"Well, since you've said that, let me just say a few words." Gu Chen smiled awkwardly and continued, "My main idea is to increase the intensity of parents abandoning infants and young children. Once parents who are capable of raising infants and young children but do not fulfill their obligation to do so are caught, they will be severely punished, and it would be best if they could be thrown into jail."

"For parents who are truly unable to raise their infants and young children, they can go through the procedures at official institutions such as welfare homes and temporarily place their infants and young children there. When they are able to raise them, they can take their children back from the welfare homes. During this process, both parents need to spend at least one day a week with their children."

"That's the general idea. I know there are definitely some details that I haven't taken into account, so I'll need your help."

After listening to Gu Chen's thoughts, Staff Officer Manabe did not express his opinion immediately. Instead, he went over Gu Chen's thoughts in his mind and then nodded slowly.

"sure, no problem."

Hearing what Chief of Staff Manabe said, a bright smile immediately appeared on Gu Chen's face.

"Thank you, Chief of Staff Manabe. I won't bother you any more. See you later."

Having achieved his main goal, Gu Chen decided not to take up any more of Staff Officer Manabe's precious time and offered to leave. At the same time, he did not forget to take away a can of coffee beans next to the coffee machine.

"This kid is really good at finding trouble for me..." Staff Officer Manabe looked at Gu Chen's leaving figure and couldn't help but scold him with a smile. Then he grabbed the phone on the desk and said, "Ask someone from the Ministry of Justice to come over. Some things need to be discussed and improved in detail."

After saying that, Staff Officer Manabe hung up the phone.

Fortunately, Gu Chen raised these ideas to him at this stage. If it was earlier, Staff Officer Manabe would really be helpless.

But now, perhaps it won’t be long before Gu Chen will have to change the way he addresses Chief of Staff Manabe.

After so many years of hard work and development, Chief of Staff Manabe has accumulated enough strength to support him to sit in a higher position.

Once he takes a higher position, he will have greater power, and some plans that cannot be surfaced for the time being can be carried out more easily.

Gu Chen couldn't say that he knew nothing about all this, but the information he knew was extremely limited. In addition to the fact that he himself was not very interested in this aspect, Gu Chen was too young and needed to gain some experience in this circle.
