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

The panicked crowd gradually calmed down after special police and armed police arrived at the scene.

Squads of armed police officers, wearing bulletproof vests and helmets, entered the square in an orderly manner from both sides. They formed a human wall with shields and guided the crowd to a safe area.

Some people were crying while holding their children, some were squatting on the ground picking up their scattered luggage, and others were pale-faced and being helped out by their colleagues.

The bodies on the ground were covered with white sheets.

Chu Yue put the last terrorist's detonator into a blast bag, then let out a long sigh of relief.

She picked up the walkie-talkie and confirmed the situation with each group one by one—all eight criminals had been killed, no other suspicious persons were found at the scene, and no explosion had occurred.

The walkie-talkie kept responding, and hearing these voices, Chu Yue finally relaxed her shoulders, as if a huge burden had been lifted off her shoulders.

She turned around and walked towards Luo Fei.

The other members of the Hunter Blade team also gathered around.

Their faces still bore traces of blood, and their clothes were wrinkled from the fight, but their eyes shone with light.

The mission was successfully completed without any casualties among the team members or civilians. They did a great job.

Chu Yue stood in front of Luo Fei, stared at him for two seconds, and then spoke.

"Luo Fei, thank you. If you hadn't taken care of that last guy, today's operation would probably have failed."

She paused briefly, her voice lowering slightly.

"If he had detonated the bomb in the crowd, at least dozens of lives would have been at risk."

Luo Fei glanced at Chu Yue, then looked at the familiar faces that had gathered around him.

He smiled slightly and said in a relaxed tone, "It was no trouble at all."

Chu Yue nodded, without saying anything more about thanking her.

She picked up the walkie-talkie, preparing to report to her superiors, but suddenly remembered something and turned to Luo Fei, saying, "By the way, we're going abroad on a mission soon. The specific location can't be revealed yet, but—"

Luo Fei followed up, "Are we going to deal with that drug trafficking organization?"

Chu Yue was slightly taken aback, then nodded.

Luo Fei took out his phone and dialed a number in front of everyone.

The phone was answered after two rings, and Zhou Mingyu's voice came through the receiver: "Xiao Luo, I've heard about the situation at the scene. We really owe you a lot this time, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Luo Fei said, "Director Zhou, it's nothing. I just wanted to tell you something—I took care of the information you sent me last time about the drug trafficking organization, Kun Sheng Group, on the same day. The organization's leader, core members, armed forces, as well as the drug manufacturing plant and dock, have all been eliminated. You can save Chu Yue and the others from making a wasted trip."

There was silence for several seconds on the other end of the phone.

Zhou Mingyu spoke again: "Understood. I will report to my superiors and have this mission canceled."

After saying that, Zhou Mingyu hung up the phone.

Luo Fei put his phone back in his pocket and looked up at Chu Yue and the Hunter Blade team behind her.

Everyone was watching him.

Their eyes were filled with shock.

Chu Yue was the first to come to her senses. She took a deep breath, fastened the walkie-talkie back to her belt, then turned around and gave the order to her team members: "Fall back."

Nobody asked any more questions.

They followed Chu Yue out through the side door of the waiting hall. Luo Fei watched their retreating figures; Captain Lei and the others even turned back to look at him as they left.

He nodded slightly to them, then turned and went into the restroom in the waiting room.

There was only one elderly person washing their hands at the entrance of the toilet, with water gushing from the faucet.

Luo Fei walked into the innermost cubicle, closed the door, and with a slight thought, moved his mind.

The next second, he was already standing in the hotel room.

He picked up the room key and went downstairs to check out.

The girl at the front desk smiled and asked him about his stay. He replied, "It was pretty good," swiped his card, and left.

As he walked out of the hotel, he turned into a narrow alley next to it.

The alley was deserted, moss covered the corners of the walls, and the air was filled with a damp, musty smell.

He instantly returned to his home in Liuxi Village.

The courtyard was quiet, the roses were in full bloom, and several bees were buzzing around collecting nectar.

My parents haven't come back yet; they're probably working in the fields or visiting the neighbors.

He went into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, looked inside, then put on an apron and started cooking dinner.

Stir-fried tomatoes and eggs are brightly colored, with red tomatoes and yellow eggs, just like a vivid painting.

Stir-fried greens, with little oil and salt, have a light and refreshing taste.

He heated up the remaining chicken soup and added a few green vegetable leaves, making the soup exceptionally delicious.

The rice was already steaming, and the rice cooker was emitting steam, filling the whole house with an enticing aroma of rice.

While cooking, he took out his phone and started watching short videos by the stove.

The content of the first video made him frown.

"This afternoon, the Japanese destroyer 'Murasame' illegally entered the Taiwan Strait and sailed in the strait for about two hours before leaving. The Chinese Navy tracked and monitored it throughout the entire process and issued warnings by hailing."

"The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that China enjoys sovereignty and jurisdiction over the Taiwan Strait, and any foreign warships passing through without permission are committing an illegal act. China will take all necessary measures to safeguard its national sovereignty and territorial integrity."

Below the video were comments from netizens, which Luo Fei scrolled through.

"It's that 'basin chicken' again, they never learn their lesson."

"Followed and monitored the entire time? Why not just stop them?"

"We let it in, then let it out again. Was our reaction too mild?"

"Don't worry, we'll settle accounts with them sooner or later."

"The higher-ups have considered things so thoroughly, so thoroughly that it's raised my blood pressure."

Luo Fei silently gave a thumbs up to the comment that said "the higher-ups have considered everything too thoroughly."

That's what he thought too.

They monitored the entire process, issued warnings, and then watched helplessly as the other party walked through.

Although he understood that diplomatic and military matters were not so simple, he couldn't calm the pent-up frustration in his heart.

He put down his phone and brought the stir-fried dishes to the table.

My parents also happened to come home, so we sat down and ate together.

Luo Fei swiped his phone, and the next video popped up:

"Breaking News! India illegally crossed the border into China's western border area, attempting to establish an outpost. Chinese border guards, outnumbered but outgunned, defeated over 400 Indian troops with just over 50 men, inflicting dozens of casualties and capturing over 200!"

"Throughout the entire conflict, neither side fired a single shot, engaging in combat with melee weapons such as clubs and stones. The Chinese soldiers demonstrated exceptional combat prowess and physical fitness, while the Indian army was routed, abandoning their armor and weapons. Currently, the captured personnel have been handed over to the Indian side."

Luo Fei watched the video, a slight smile playing on his lips.

More than fifty men fought against more than four hundred men, engaging in hand-to-hand combat with cold weapons, and captured more than two hundred of them.

Such a kill ratio cannot be achieved by courage alone, but by solid physical strength.

He recalled the first set of body-refining techniques he had taught to the special operations brigade, which could double one's physical strength after mastering them.

If these border guards have just finished practicing the first set of exercises, their strength, speed, endurance, and reaction time will all double.

Therefore, it is not surprising that such a result was achieved.

He picked up a piece of egg, chewed it twice, and continued scrolling through the comments.

"Fifty men against four hundred, and capturing two hundred—is that a feat even humanly possible?"

"The strength of our Dragon Nation's army is absolutely number one on the entire planet; the number of our air force is also number one, and we will not accept any rebuttal!"

"Indian soldier: We were four hundred men being chased by fifty men. Who would believe that?"

Luo Fei turned off his phone, picked up his bowl, and started eating.

He knew that the body-refining technique was still in the secret stage, and the general public was unaware of it.

After the meal, he washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen spotlessly.

Back in my room, as I recalled the video I had just watched, a decision gradually became clear in my mind.

Since the Japanese warships have come once, there's no guarantee they won't come a second time.

Today they dare to cross the Taiwan Strait, tomorrow they might dare to hold live-fire exercises in the nearby waters.

Although the Indians were repelled this time, they lost 400 men to 50 prisoners. Can they accept such an outcome?

Next time, they will likely send more people, and may even fire first.

The top leadership of the Dragon Kingdom has too many things to consider.

However, Luo Fei could understand them—the game between major powers is not child's play, and cannot be acted upon based on momentary impulses.

They have their own considerations and pace.

Luo Fei sat on the edge of the bed without turning on the light.

The light from outside filtered through the curtains, casting a pale gray hue over the room.

He leaned against the headboard, closed his eyes, and went through the two news stories he had seen that day in his mind again.

Japanese chicken, India.

One is on the other side of the sea, and the other is on the other side of the mountain.

One trespassed into the strait, and the other crossed the line to provoke.

One is a dog chained up by the United States, and the other is cannon fodder used as a pawn by the United States.

Luo Fei opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling in the dim light.

He has already made up his mind; he will go and talk to Director Qin first thing tomorrow morning.
