Villain? No, I'll catch up with the protagonist after passing the civil service exam.

"Director Lu, please have faith in the sincerity of our selection committee!"

The old man on the other end of the phone was almost pleading as he shouted.

"This is no joke; we've made the greatest decision of all, a decision that goes against our ancestors' wishes!"

Lu Jingyan held the microphone, his deep eyes remaining as calm as still water.

"Explain your reasoning, sir. I don't like to hear empty talk without factual basis."

The old man took a deep breath, trying his best to calm his wildly beating heart, and spoke in a trembling voice.

"Just this morning, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, the Karolinska Institute, and the Norwegian Nobel Committee..."

"The joint team has completed the data verification of the global security overhaul operation you led."

The voice inside the phone trembled slightly with excitement.

"The global crime rate has fallen below 0.001% in the past six months!"

"This is a miracle of peace unprecedented in the history of human civilization!"

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but let out a suppressed gasp. The girl covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

Zhao Tiezhu's mouth dropped open, and the takoyaki he was about to eat fell back into the box with a thud.

On the other end of the phone, the chairman of the Nobel Committee excitedly informed Lu Jingyan that he had been unanimously awarded this year's Nobel Peace Prize for reducing the global crime rate to 0.001%.

"Director Lu, all twelve judges voted unanimously in favor; no one raised any objections!"

People all over the world are eager to see you in Oslo or Stockholm; please be sure to attend this grand event!

Lu Jingyan glanced indifferently at Su Xiaoxiao beside him, then held the microphone closer, his tone as calm as if he were discussing tomorrow's weather.

"Time and place."

"Next Wednesday, at the Stockholm Concert Hall, we will hold a top-level award ceremony for you!"

Finally, a sigh of relief came from the other end of the phone; the Swedish old man almost collapsed into his office chair on the spot.

After hanging up the phone, the office fell into a brief silence.

Zhao Tiezhu slapped his thigh hard, his thick arm waving like a windmill, his face trembling with excitement.

"Holy crap! Director, are you going to win the Nobel Peace Prize?!"

"This is a momentous event that will bring glory to our ancestors and be recorded on the first page of our family genealogy!"

Su Xiaoxiao was so happy that she jumped up and down, her ponytail swinging in the air in a cheerful arc.

"Captain Lu! This is not only an honor for our Special Enforcement Bureau, but also a victory for the rule of law in China in front of the world!"

Lu Jingyan calmly picked up the already warm flower tea, took a sip, and showed no smugness.

"It's just an empty title, but since they've taken the initiative to invite me, there's no harm in going."

The man put down his teacup, a deep light flashing in his dark eyes.

"Get ready, we're going to Sweden, and we'll bring our most critical data hard drives."

One week later, in Stockholm, Sweden.

The historic concert hall is now adorned in a magnificent display of gold, showcasing the solemnity and nobility of human civilization.

The steps, covered with a thick red carpet, were lined with heads of state and diplomats from over a hundred countries around the world.

The cameras of countless top international media outlets had already been set up, their flashes creating a dazzling white net that left no blind spots.

Lu Jingyan led Su Xiaoxiao and Zhao Tiezhu slowly into the venue.

Today, Lu Jingyan has shed his cold, hard black police uniform.

He changed into a tailor-made dark black suit.

The crisp tailoring perfectly accentuated his tall and slender figure, and his dark blue tie was tied meticulously.

However, there was still no smile on his angular face, and his deep eyes revealed an absolute rationality that made people afraid to look him in the eye.

Standing beside him was Su Xiaoxiao, dressed in an elegant light blue evening gown.

The girl's already pretty face looked even more radiant and beautiful after applying a little makeup, but she still clutched the heavy tactical computer tightly in her arms.

As for Zhao Tiezhu on the other side.

The bald, burly man was wearing an oversized, custom-made suit.

His broad shoulders stretched the high-end fabric taut, and he carried a metal briefcase full of motherboard cores.

His eyes continued to dart around the foreign faces, making him look like a bodyguard ready to cause trouble at any moment.

As Lu Jingyan appeared at the entrance.

The entire hall fell into a brief silence, followed by a thunderous applause.

The heads of state of major countries, who usually appear aloof and superior on television, all spontaneously stood up at this moment.

They looked at the man with an almost awe-inspiring gaze, a man who had tamed thugs and superheroes from all over the world with handcuffs and legal codes.

"Mr. Lu, thank you for bringing peace to this world."

A female president from a Western European country reached out her hand, her eyes filled with undisguised gratitude.

Lu Jingyan calmly extended his hand, clad in a white silk glove, and gently shook hands with the other person.

"This is simply the order that a modern society governed by the rule of law should have, Madam President."

As solemn ceremonial music played, the awards ceremony officially began.

The elderly chairman of the Nobel Committee walked onto the podium with somewhat shaky steps.

He cleared his throat and began to read the award citation for the year’s greatest and most uncontroversial award in a trembling voice.

Throughout the long history of humankind, we have tried countless times to pursue peace through war, treaties, or faith.

"But we all failed until this young law enforcement officer from China appeared."

The chairman held up a red certificate high.

"He used the most rigorous logic and the most resolute rule of law to show us what true order really is."

"Now, please welcome this year's Nobel Peace Prize laureate, Mr. Lu Jingyan, to the stage!"

boom!

The applause in the entire Golden Hall reached its peak at that moment, and the huge sound wave almost lifted the dome of the hall.

Lu Jingyan slowly stood up from his seat and walked unhurriedly onto the stage, under the watchful eyes of countless cameras.

In this historically significant second.

The pale blue, regular light in Lu Jingyan's eyes began to rapidly deduce, breaking down the world before him into frames of slow motion.

At 0.1 seconds, hundreds and thousands of blinding white flashes of light exploded almost simultaneously in the audience.

The light intertwined to create a seamless daylight, attempting to capture any hint of pride or emotional fluctuation on the face of this Chinese law enforcement officer.

At 0.3 seconds, Su Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes sparkled with tears as she clapped her hands frantically in the audience.

The girl's heart pounded wildly because of this supreme honor, as if she were witnessing the birth of a myth.

In a mere 0.5 seconds, all the top tycoons and heads of state sitting in the first row spontaneously straightened their backs.

They were terrified of leaving any detail that might disrespect this embodiment of the rule of law during the upcoming global live broadcast.

At 0.8 seconds, Lu Jingyan stepped onto the red carpet-covered speech platform in his custom-made black leather shoes.

Every step he took carried an unwavering sense of discipline and order, transforming the magnificent podium into something reminiscent of the Supreme People's Court's judge's bench.

A second later, Lu Jingyan stood ramrod straight in front of the microphone at the podium, his expression as calm as a still, icy pool.

The chairman respectfully presented the heavy pure gold medal and certificate.

Lu Jingyan extended both hands to accept it, without offering any polite thanks.

He simply tossed the medal, which represented the world's highest honor, onto the podium.

It produced a crisp metallic clanging sound.

The media reporters in the audience immediately erupted in an uproar, with countless cameras zooming in frantically, trying to analyze Lu Jingyan's move.

"Mr. Lu, it is now your time for a peace speech."

The chairman respectfully gestured for him to proceed, then stepped aside.

All the political figures, business leaders, and billions of viewers watching the live television broadcast below the stage held their breath.

Everyone wants to hear what kind of earth-shattering peace declaration this powerful figure, who uses pure rule of law to unify and regulate the world, will make.

Even the staff backstage responsible for simultaneous interpretation were sweating bullets at that moment.

However, Lu Jingyan did not behave as everyone had expected.

He pulled out the draft of his acceptance speech, meticulously prepared by the Swedish government and overly ornate, from the inside pocket of his suit jacket.

The man's long, slender right hand traced a smooth arc in the air.

With his fingertips, he pulled a silver USB flash drive made of special titanium alloy, gleaming with a cool metallic luster, from his trouser pocket.

The USB flash drive has no extra decorations on its surface, only four gold-stamped characters: "Global Faku".

When Su Xiaoxiao saw the USB drive, a knowing, sly smile flashed in her beautiful eyes.

The girl quickly typed the final unlock key on the tactical tablet.

"SkyNet external link broadcast channel successfully locked!"

Su Xiaoxiao softly reported to the microphone, a slight smile playing on her lips.

Lu Jingyan walked to the main control console computer in the hall without the slightest hesitation.

He flipped the USB drive over and, with a click, pushed it precisely into the interface of the main control computer.

boom!

At that instant, the giant holographic screen at the back of the Stockholm Concert Hall suddenly lit up.

The documentary footage that was playing, featuring highlights of Lu Jingyan's legal education, was abruptly cut off.

Instead, a pale blue data flow network covers the entire Earth and even soars into the heavens.

Everyone in the entire Golden Hall was stunned.

Everyone looked at each other, forgetting to breathe, no one knew what this Chinese man was up to.

"Mr. Lu, what's going on?"

The chairman adjusted his glasses with some alarm and stammered a question.

Lu Jingyan didn't pay him any attention immediately, but instead coldly adjusted the microphone.

In that instant, billions of screens around the world watching the live stream were all forcibly locked onto this vast, pale blue sky net.

Lu Jingyan stood back on the podium, his aloof and upright figure appearing like a true god of the rule of law descending to earth under the holographic light.

Then, the man's deep gaze slowly swept over the astonished heads of state below the stage.

He tapped the microphone lightly, producing a dull, low-frequency vibration.

Instead of producing a prepared acceptance speech, Lu Jingyan pulled out a USB drive and plugged it into the main computer: "Taking advantage of this global live broadcast, I'd like to take a minute of your time."
