You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

The gale-force winds, accompanied by torrential rain, lashed every corner of the Zhao family manor like ten thousand whips.

The mountains and forests roared, and only the endless rushing of water could be heard between heaven and earth, enough to cover up all the evils in the world.

Lin Chen's figure, like a ghost blending into the night, silently approached the three-meter-high wall topped with a high-voltage electric fence.

He didn't look for any tools, but just looked up at the top of the wall, bent his legs slightly, and instantly stomped two shallow pits into the ground beneath his feet.

The next second, his body shot up from the ground like a cannonball!

He drew an arc through the air that defied the limits of physics, easily crossing the high-voltage power grid powerful enough to electrocute a cow, and landed silently on the lawn in the manor.

The cold rain mixed with the smell of earth rushed towards him, but it did not move him in the slightest.

[God-level Hearing Ability], now activated!

In an instant, a torrent of sounds from the entire world flooded into his ears.

The sound of raindrops hitting the leaves, the whistling of the wind blowing through the power lines, the uneasy growling of a wolfhound in the distance...

Countless noises are instantly filtered and analyzed by the brain.

His hearing was like a highly sophisticated radar, piercing through the heavy rain and accurately locking onto sounds that were not of nature.

The sound of a heartbeat.

One, two, three...

There are twelve in total.

Calm, powerful, hidden in the storm.

Lin Chen's gaze fell upon a huge banyan tree with lush branches and leaves, thirty meters to his left.

There, there is the sound of a heartbeat.

He moved.

Without making a sound, his body left a blurry afterimage on the lawn, moving faster than a human.

In the blink of an eye, he had arrived under the banyan tree.

He looked up, his cold gaze piercing through the dense canopy, locking onto a sentry perched on a branch, dressed in a ghillie suit, holding a Remington MSR sniper rifle.

Without pausing, Lin Chen used both hands and feet to silently climb up the slippery tree trunk.

The sniper in the tree was idly observing the deserted mountain road outside the manor through his night vision scope, a cigarette dampened by the rain dangling from his mouth.

He was completely unaware that the shadow of death was already looming over him from directly below.

Just as he was about to change his position.

A hand, like an iron clamp that seemed to have emerged from the depths of hell, suddenly reached out from behind him and tightly covered his mouth!

"Hmm!"

The sniper's muscles tensed instantly, and his eyes bulged outwards in fear!

He instinctively tried to struggle and pull the trigger.

But it was too late.

The other hand gripped the back of his head with unparalleled strength.

Then, give it a gentle twist.

"Snap!"

A crisp, clear sound of bone cracking seemed insignificant amidst the torrential rain.

The sniper's body shuddered violently, then collapsed like a rag doll, the light in his eyes vanishing instantly, and he completely lost consciousness.

Lin Chen's eyes remained completely calm.

He casually snatched the top-of-the-line sniper rifle, and with a single forceful movement, snapped off the firing pin, the most crucial component, and threw it into the grass below.

Solve the first one.

He slid down the tree like a ghost, his figure disappearing into the rain once more.

The second one is in the sentry post on the east side of the wall.

The third one is in the hidden fortifications behind the artificial hill.

……

The twelfth one is on the only way to the main building.

Twelve sentries, twelve elite mercenaries hired by Zhao Tailong at great expense, their hands stained with blood.

In front of Lin Chen, she was as vulnerable as an infant.

Not a single shot was fired.

There wasn't a single scream.

It didn't even disturb a guard dog.

A silent massacre was carried out quietly under the cover of the torrential rain.

Five minutes later.

Lin Chen stood in front of the heavy solid wood gate of the main building of the manor, which was carved with intricate patterns.

He was dripping wet, but his eyes were a thousand times colder than the rain.

……

Meanwhile, inside the luxurious main hall of the manor.

The warm lights, the melodious classical music, and the fire burning in the fireplace shut out the raging storm outside, creating another world.

Zhao Tailong, dressed in a dark red silk bathrobe, held a glass of expensive Romanée-Conti with a radiant face.

"Hahaha! Director, come on, let me toast you again!"

He laughed triumphantly, the wrinkles on his face smoothing out.

"This plan was flawless! That little bastard Lin Chen is probably kneeling before his parents' severed limbs right now, crying like a dog!"

Opposite him, the refined man with gold-rimmed glasses and the codename "Director" was elegantly toying with a red, delicate remote-controlled detonator in his hand.

Upon hearing this, he also revealed a cruel smile.

"Chairman Zhao is right, this is what happens when you anger someone."

"Art needs to be embellished with blood and wails."

"I think Consultant Lin will deeply understand this tonight."

"Well said!"

Zhao Tailong slapped his thigh excitedly, his fat face trembling.

"I'm going to the police station to donate money and offer my condolences to Advisor Lin, who is grieving the loss of his loved one, as soon as it's light tomorrow!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

The two men burst into unrestrained laughter, raised their glasses, and clinked them together heavily in mid-air.

"Ding!"

The crisp clinking of glasses seemed to be the final movement in celebration of their victory.

However, in that very instant!

"boom--!!!!!"

A deafening roar erupted, as if a bomb had exploded right next to everyone's ears!

The heavy solid wood door, strong enough to withstand a barrage of machine gun fire, seemed to have been rammed head-on by a prehistoric behemoth!

Countless wood chips mixed with metal parts were blasted wildly into the hall!

A fierce wind, mixed with icy rain, rushed in instantly, washing away all the warmth and luxury of the room!

The fireplace flames were extinguished instantly.

The melodious music abruptly stopped.

The hall was deathly silent.

The smiles on Zhao Tailong's and the "director's" faces froze completely.

The twenty fully armed elite bodyguards surrounding the hall were also stunned, staring in horror at the entrance.

There, smoke and dust filled the air.

A bolt of lightning ripped through the dark night!

The pale light instantly illuminated the figure at the doorway.

He was a young man soaking wet, his black hair plastered to his forehead, water droplets constantly sliding down his cheeks.

His face was expressionless.

But those eyes were colder and more lifeless than the permafrost of Siberia.

The temperature in the hall seemed to plummet to freezing point at that moment!

The deathly silence lasted for a second.

"Thump!"

The detonator in the "director's" hand slipped and fell to the ground.

His refined face was contorted with extreme fear, his eyes bulging as if they were about to pop out of their sockets, and a hissing sound came from his throat.

"Lin...Lin Chen?!"

The wine glass in Zhao Tailong's hand fell to the ground with a "crack," splashing crimson wine mixed with glass shards all over the floor.

The color drained from his face at a visible speed, turning him deathly pale!

impossible!

What is he doing here?!

The teahouse over there...

After a brief moment of shock came boundless terror!

Zhao Tailong screamed hysterically, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on!

"Kill him! Kill him!! Shoot!!"

The twenty elite bodyguards around him were finally jolted awake from that hellish sense of oppression!

They suddenly realized what was happening, and quickly pulled out cold pistols from their waists and armpits, released the safety, and aimed them at the lone figure in the doorway!

"Da da da da da—!!!"

The next second, twenty pistols simultaneously spat out deadly flames!

The intense gunfire instantly drowned out all other sounds in the hall!
