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

"boom--"

This all happened in a single second. But in the long annals of human civilization on Earth, this second was forever frozen as the beginning of the interstellar era. In Lu Jingyan's pale blue, absolutely rational vision, the flow of time was mercilessly slowed down.

At 0.1 seconds, the walnut gavel, with a sharp whistling sound as it ripped through the air, slammed into the brass pad in the age-spotted hand of the UN Secretary-General.

At 0.2 seconds, a dull thud echoed through the dome of the circular conference hall. The sound seemed to have traversed the thick atmosphere and struck directly into the cold, silent vacuum of space.

At 0.4 seconds, the voting data on the holographic screen was completely locked. The glaring green "Agree" sign occupied 100% of the screen, and no country dared to press the abstention button.

At 0.6 seconds, the shock in the eyes of the world leaders sitting in the front row was gradually replaced by a fanatical ambition. Their breathing became heavy and rapid, and their chests heaved violently beneath their suits.

At 0.8 seconds, the green light reflected in Lu Jingyan's deep black eyes. He stood tall and straight, one hand in his pocket, a barely perceptible, cold, hard curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

It ended in a second. Thunderous applause erupted like a tidal wave in the circular hall of Geneva.

Six months later, in the Kuiper Belt at the edge of the solar system.

This place was once a desperate defensive line against the Sirius fleet, but now it has been completely transformed by the Earth Interstellar Federation into a massive space city comparable to the moon. Cold meteorites have been forged into an indestructible alloy fortress by a high-dimensional furnace.

As the gavel fell, a huge alloy plaque was hung on the space city at the edge of the solar system: "The First Comprehensive Police Station of the Galaxy".

The moment the plaque was hung was also filled with a breathtaking sense of solemnity.

At 0.1 seconds, two heavy engineering mechs spewed out eerie blue plasma tail flames. Their massive mechanical arms firmly gripped the super alloy plaque, which was over a hundred meters long.

In 0.3 seconds, the dust cover on the plaque was precisely blasted open by a micro-explosive program. It turned into a sky full of flying silver shards, which, blown by the solar wind, resembled a grand meteor shower of metal.

At 0.5 seconds, eight square, pure gold Chinese characters, exuding a strong sense of official Chinese authority, burst into a dazzling light under the faint glow of a distant star.

At 0.7 seconds, the Earth interstellar destroyers on the outer perimeter simultaneously sounded their deep horns. The powerful sound waves reverberated in the special communication frequency band, announcing the birth of a brand-new law enforcement agency.

It ended in one second.

Among the countless alien merchant ships docked on the outskirts of the spaceport, the envoys and wandering merchants from different star systems were all dumbfounded.

A silicon-based creature with four eyes stared intently at the universal translator on its wrist. The translator, unable to comprehend this hardcore vocabulary brimming with magical realism, was emitting plumes of black smoke.

"Police station? Is that the code name for some new type of star destroyer from Earth's civilization?" A terrified, grating sound came from the rock-based vocal cords of the silicon-based being.

A carbon-based merchant covered in green scales next to him shook his head repeatedly, his tail curled up in fright.

"No, no, no! I've heard of that word! In ancient Earth languages, it's a terrifying institution that specifically arrests unruly people and puts them on sewing machines!"

While the aliens were trembling with fear at the sight of a plaque, the director's office at the top of the space city presented a completely new scene.

Lu Jingyan officially assumed the position of Director (Galaxy-level). His police uniform was replaced with a dark black interstellar combat suit, and Zhao Tiezhu's Gatling gun was replaced with an antimatter rotary machine gun. Earth transformed from an invaded planet into the law enforcement center of the entire galaxy.

Lu Jingyan stood before the enormous floor-to-ceiling window. His deep black interstellar combat suit was made from liquid nanomaterials from the Sirius civilization, fused with Earth's polymer materials. The fabric clung perfectly to his tall, slender figure, without any unnecessary bulk.

On his shoulder, the dark silver badge representing the authority of a galaxy-level police chief reflected a cold, rule-of-law light under the starlight.

The man's long, slender fingers gently adjusted his high collar. His sharply defined, rational face was clearly reflected in the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Chief! Look at my new wife! This thing is way more powerful than that old firewood stick!"

With a loud, booming roar, Zhao Tiezhu kicked open the automatic door to the office.

A bald, burly man, his face flushed, stormed in carrying an extravagantly designed heavy weapon. This antimatter rotary machine gun was a full two meters long, its body covered with complex, eerie blue energy circuits, radiating a chilling aura of destruction.

Zhao Tiezhu, carried away with his pride, showed off this steel beast to everyone. In Lu Jingyan's view, this weapon demonstration was equally filled with a violent beauty.

At a fraction of a second, Zhao Tiezhu's thick thumb gently pressed the safety release latch on the weapon grip, producing a sickening metallic scraping sound.

At 0.3 seconds, a dark red antimatter energy flowed wildly along the coils inside the gun, heating the surrounding air to the point of distortion and deformation.

At 0.5 seconds, the six gun barrels, forged from Sirius special alloy, began a slow and heavy preheating rotation driven by the motor.

In 0.7 seconds, a surge of violent kinetic energy, enough to instantly vaporize a heavy armored vehicle, was compressed tightly into the small space of the gun barrel. It was like a hungry beast, ready to spew deathly flames at any moment.

It ended in one second.

Bruce, dressed in a new Batsuit made of optical stealth material, emerged from the shadows like a ghost.

The Dark Knight pushed up the upgraded quantum tactical goggles on his nose. His deep, husky voice carried a hint of meticulous tactical profiling.

"Antimatter rotary machine gun. Theoretical rate of fire is eight thousand rounds per minute, and each bullet can trigger a micro-annihilation reaction the moment it hits the target." Bruce stared at the weapon in Zhao Tiezhu's hand and gave an objective evaluation.

"This kind of firepower suppression, which surpasses that of traditional kinetic weapons, can directly destroy the energy field of higher-dimensional beings. In dealing with intergalactic violent resistance incidents, its deterrent power can be maximized."

Su Xiaoxiao sat in the floating command chair surrounded by multiple screens and rolled her eyes in annoyance.

Instead of the bulky tactical computer, the girl now had a pale blue quantum sphere floating in mid-air. Her slender fingers deftly moved across the surface of the sphere, drawing out streams of dazzling data.

"Brother Tiezhu, take it easy! The recoil of this gun could flip an elephant over. Don't blow through the load-bearing wall of our police station on your first day on the job!"

Zhao Tiezhu chuckled and casually touched his bald head.

"What are you afraid of? We're now the only legitimate law enforcement agency in the galaxy! Even if I punch a hole in the galaxy, it'll be to maintain cosmic order!"

Lu Jingyan slowly turned around, his deep black eyes sweeping over the three core subordinates present.

There were no superfluous pleasantries, nor a lengthy inaugural address. The man exuded the rigidity and coldness unique to Earth's law enforcement officers.

"Get your gear ready. From today onwards, the Dark Forest Theory no longer applies to the Milky Way."

Lu Jingyan stood with one hand in his pocket, his tone as calm as a still, undisturbed pool.

"As long as it's within our jurisdiction, regardless of the level of civilization, those who steal will be sent to mine, and those who rob will be sent to work on sewing machines. Anyone who dares to resist will be given a physical lesson in what criminal law is."

However, just as Lu Jingyan's domineering declaration of popularizing law in the intergalactic system came to a close.

The sudden turn of events ruthlessly shattered this historically significant moment.

This was just a brief second on the first day of listing.

At 0.1 seconds, the highest warning light hanging on the white wall suddenly went out of its green glow without warning and burst into a blinding red light.

At 0.3 seconds, the floating quantum sphere in front of Su Xiaoxiao began to spin wildly. A sharp, piercing alarm frequency forcibly cut into the police station's internal communication network.

At 0.5 seconds, the smile on Zhao Tiezhu's face suddenly froze. Without hesitation, he leveled the antimatter machine gun in his hand, his face taut with tension, and his eyes instantly turned into those of a bloodthirsty tiger.

At 0.7 seconds, the long-suppressed spirit of the rule of law in Lu Jingyan's deep black eyes erupted like a volcano. Pale blue light of rules swirled rapidly in his eyes.

It ended in one second.

Su Xiaoxiao slammed her hands on the ball of light, projecting a chaotic surveillance video onto the central holographic screen in the office.

"Boss! Something's happened!" The girl's voice was filled with anxiety. "The spaceport's security system has just been forcibly compromised!"

On the very first day the police station was established, an alarm sounded at the spaceport in Space City. A brawl with weapons had broken out in the waiting hall.
