I started by watching videos, and I chose 10,000 combat power.

Kyoto, conference room.

Several people sat around a conference table, with international news playing on the screen in front of them.

Multiple US military bases in Japan were destroyed. Senior executives of Yamamoto Corporation were killed, and a terrorist organization claimed responsibility for the attack.

But the people sitting at the table all knew that it wasn't the work of any terrorist organization.

Zhou Mingyu put down the documents in his hand and looked across at the other side.

"The technical department has confirmed that the video from the terrorist organization is flawless and likely not fabricated."

Qin Zhenhua leaned back in his chair, his expression complex.

"That kid's gone way too far."

An elderly man in military uniform spoke up.

"What's the reaction from the US?"

Zhou Mingyu said.

"There is immense public pressure domestically, with people protesting and demanding the eradication of terrorist organizations. The government has announced military action against the 'Black Hawk Down' organization."

"As for Japan..."

He paused.

"In Japan, the sacred toilets have been destroyed twice, and the public has begun to question the point of rebuilding them. It's unlikely that they will be rebuilt a third time anytime soon, otherwise public morale might collapse."

The meeting room was silent for a few seconds.

Then Elder Long, who was sitting in the main seat, spoke.

The voice wasn't loud, but everyone could hear it clearly.

"Has the announcement been sent out?"

Zhou Mingyu nodded.

"It's out. We strongly condemn terrorist organizations, express our condolences to the victims, and call on the international community to jointly combat terrorism."

Old Master Long nodded.

"Say what needs to be said to the outside world."

"Internally..."

He looked in another direction.

"The security situation in Qingyang County needs to be thoroughly cleaned up."

A middle-aged man in a police uniform nodded.

"Understood. It's already being done."

"Have the driver who caused the accident and the person who was picking him up been caught?"

Zhou Mingyu responded.

"We just received news that the body of the driver who caused the accident has been found; he had been shot in the head."

"Judging from the traces at the scene, he was silenced. The murderer was probably the person who was helping him; the method was very professional, leaving no clues."

"The other party must have planned this all along. Regardless of whether the car accident succeeds or not, the driver will be silenced."

"This is just in case, to prevent him from revealing his superiors."

Director Qin frowned.

"So the trail has gone cold now?"

The old general shook his head.

Whether the clues have run dry or not is no longer important to that kid.

"He doesn't need evidence; knowing who did it is enough."

Silence fell over the meeting room once again.

The day.

Qingyang County has launched an unprecedented crackdown on crime.

Various departments worked together to conduct surprise inspections.

Some hidden gray areas have been completely eradicated.

Some local tyrants who had long evaded the law were invited for questioning.

Police cars shuttled through the streets and alleys.

The people were talking about it, wondering what had happened.

All I know is that the entire county suddenly became more peaceful than ever before.

Early morning at Shanshui Impression Villa.

Luo Fei opened his eyes.

Trigger the system in your mind.

[A divine choice has been triggered today.]

Option A: Obtain 100 "Eight-Foot Jewels" (an upgraded version of the pinnacle of fireworks, the "Four-Foot Jewel," a single shot capable of creating a massive, dazzling display of fireworks covering a radius of one kilometer).

Option B: Obtain 100 sets of "Seven-Colored Auspicious Clouds" (each set consists of 999 missiles launched simultaneously, creating a magnificent spectacle of seven-colored auspicious clouds after ascent, covering a wide area and providing a stunning visual effect).

Luo Fei thought for a moment.

Eight feet of jade, with great power when fired alone.

But the Seven-Colored Auspicious Clouds launches 999 missiles simultaneously in one group.

If we put this away...

He remembered that the new house was almost finished.

When we move, we can put on a fireworks show.

I choose B.

The words fell.

With a thought, he sensed 100 sets of fireworks neatly arranged inside the ring.

Each set is labeled "Seven-Colored Auspicious Clouds," and the boxes are enormous, stacked up like a small mountain.

Luo Fei withdrew his consciousness with satisfaction.

I got up, washed up, and went downstairs.

Luo Ying and Zhao Lin sat at the dining table, one scrolling through her phone, the other lost in thought.

My aunt, Luo Yumei, was also there.

She came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of porridge, and her eyes lit up when she saw Luo Fei.

"Xiao Fei, are you up? Come and have breakfast."

Luo Fei nodded and sat down at the dining table.

Luo Yumei placed the porridge in front of him and whispered in his ear.

"Xiaofei, don't tell your two younger sisters about what happened yesterday. Anyway, I'm fine, and telling them will only make them worry."

Luo Fei nodded.

"OK."

Luo Yumei was relieved and went back to the kitchen to serve the dishes.

Luo Ying raised her head.

"Brother, what are you whispering about with Auntie?"

Luo Fei picked up his chopsticks.

"It's nothing."

Luo Ying looked at him suspiciously, but didn't ask any further questions.

Luo Fei spoke up halfway through breakfast.

"Auntie, are you free today?"

Luo Yumei looked up.

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Luo Fei said.

"I'll go with you to the Jinding Building to check out the office space."

Luo Yumei's eyes lit up.

"Really? That's great! I was just thinking of going to check it out in the next few days."

Luo Ying immediately raised her hand.

"Me too! Me too!"

Luo Fei glanced at her.

"You only have a few days left before school starts, so practice hard at home."

Luo Ying's face fell.

"elder brother……"

Luo Fei remained unmoved. Luo Ying looked at Chu Yue, who was drinking porridge with her head down, and pretended not to see her. Then she looked at Luo Yumei.

Luo Yumei smiled and shook her head.

"Listen to your brother."

Luo Ying pouted and sullenly drank a mouthful of porridge.

Zhao Lin, standing nearby, gloated.

"Sis, you're in big trouble!"

Luo Ying glared at her.

"You can't escape either!"

Zhao Lin stuck out her tongue and continued eating.

After breakfast.

Chu Yue led two reluctant girls to the courtyard to practice.

Luo Fei drove Luo Yumei towards the county town.

The Jinding Building is located in the new district of the county town. It is a 15-story building that was recently completed. Its exterior is a glass curtain wall that sparkles in the sunlight.

Luo Fei parked his car in a temporary parking space at the entrance of the building.

He took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Manager Li, this is Luo Fei. I'm at the building entrance now. If it's convenient, could you come down and show my aunt the floors?"

A solicitous voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Luo! Please wait a moment, I'll be right down! Right away!"

Luo Fei hung up the phone and opened the car door.

Luo Yumei also got off the bus.

She stood at the entrance of the building, looking up at the fifteen-story structure.

"So impressive."

She murmured.

Luo Fei walked to her side.

"Let's go inside and wait."

Just as the two reached the steps in front of the building, a voice came from behind them.

"Oh, isn't this Yumei?"

Luo Yumei's body stiffened slightly, and she turned around.

A man and a woman stood at the bottom of the steps.

The man was in his forties, dressed in a suit and tie, with a shiny watch on his wrist.

The woman, dressed in a designer suit and with exquisite makeup, was holding the man's arm with an arrogant expression.

It was Wang Hai and Li Li.

I ran into them once a few days ago when I was looking at apartments in Xuefuyuan.

They were just as sarcastic and unsettling that time too.

At this moment, Li Li looked Luo Yumei up and down.

My gaze swept from her ordinary shirt to her flat shoes.

Then she laughed, a very deliberate laugh.

"Yu Mei, it's been a long time."

Her voice was high-pitched and carried an air of superiority.

"What brings you here today? I heard you got divorced? I didn't hear you mention it last time we met. Are you here looking for a job?"

Wang Hai stood to the side, looking at Luo Yumei with a glint of greed in his eyes.

But he quickly covered it up and started laughing.

"Jinding Building is a newly built office building in our county, and the rent isn't cheap. If you can find a job here, that would be really great."

Li Li continued the conversation.

"Would you like us to take you upstairs? Our company is planning to move offices, and we're here to take a look today."

She clung tightly to Wang Hai's arm, smiling brightly.

"Our company isn't big, but it's doing well, so we need to move to a bigger place. Our old office is too small and not enough."

"If you're really here to apply, we can put in a good word for you."

She paused, then smiled even more meaningfully.

"After all, we've been friends for a long time."

Luo Yumei and Luo Fei both stood still, without saying a word.

He simply looked at the two people with a calm expression.

Seeing that Luo Yumei remained silent, Li Li assumed that Luo Yumei had been hit where it hurt.

She laughed even harder.

"What, are you embarrassed? It's okay, it's just job hunting, there's nothing shameful about it."

"You just got divorced and don't have a job, so you really need to find something to do."

She looked at Luo Fei.

"Is this your nephew? He looks quite handsome."

Luo Fei looked at her as if she were a clown, too lazy to pay her any attention.

Li Li didn't care and continued talking to herself.

"Alright, alright, we won't keep you any longer. Let's go upstairs first; we already have an appointment to view the property."

She linked arms with Wang Hai, and in her high heels, they strode up the steps.

As she passed by Luo Yumei, she lowered her voice and spoke in a volume that only the two of them could hear.

"Yu Mei, a divorced woman has to accept her fate."

Then she smiled and walked into the building.

Wang Hai followed behind, glancing at Luo Yumei every now and then.

Luo Yumei stood there, watching the two walk into the building, her fingers clenching slightly.

But soon, it loosened up again.

She took a deep breath and turned to look at Luo Fei.

"Xiaofei, let's..."

Before he could finish speaking, the glass doors of the building were pushed open.

A middle-aged man in a suit ran out quickly.

He was covered in sweat, and he straightened his tie as he ran.

Upon seeing Luo Fei, his eyes lit up, and he ran over in a few quick steps.

"Mr. Luo! Hello! I'm the property manager, my surname is Li, you can just call me Xiao Li!"

He bent down, grasped Luo Fei's hands with both of his, and shook them vigorously.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming? I could have come down to meet you!"

Luo Fei nodded.

"It was a spur-of-the-moment decision, so I brought my aunt to see her."

Manager Li immediately turned to Luo Yumei.

"This must be Ms. Luo? Hello! It's an honor to meet you!"

The smile on his face was as warm as if he had seen his own mother.

Luo Yumei was taken aback for a moment, then reached out and shook hands with him.

"Hello."

Manager Li stepped aside to lead the way.

"Mr. Luo, Ms. Luo, please come in! Let's start with the lobby on the first floor and then go up floor by floor..."

He solicitously led the two into the building.

At this time.

Wang Hai, Li Li, and the consultant who was receiving them had just reached the elevator.

Hearing the noise behind him, he turned around and glanced back.

Then, their expressions froze simultaneously.
