Su Ke'er stared blankly at the camera, her face filled with lingering fear.

If it weren't for Lin Chen...

She couldn't even imagine what those dirty cameras would capture, or how they would be spread to such filthy corners.

Tears of humiliation welled up in her eyes, but when she looked up at the back of the figure blocking her way, the tears evaporated with a burning emotion.

It was gratitude, it was admiration, it was a strong sense of security.

At the same time, Su Qingge had already realized what was happening.

As a seasoned criminal police officer, her face showed no trace of weakness, only icy coldness.

She darted forward, ignoring the man's pig-like screams on the ground, grabbed his wrist with her right hand like an iron clamp, and fiercely slammed her left knee into his lower back.

A clean and crisp joint lock!

"Click".

The cold, spare handcuffs locked the man's hands tightly.

The entire sequence of movements was fluid and graceful, full of violent aesthetics, making the surrounding diners feel a chill run down their spines.

Su Qingge stood up, took out her phone, and skillfully dialed the local police station, reporting the situation in a completely emotionless tone.

"At the Yunshuijian Restaurant, a male suspect has been apprehended for allegedly taking voyeuristic photos. He was caught red-handed, and we have dispatched personnel to handle the situation."

While waiting for the police officers from the local police station, the atmosphere in the restaurant remained eerie.

Su Ke'er finally recovered from her shock. Like a frightened little rabbit, she ran quickly to Lin Chen's side, her big eyes sparkling with countless little stars.

"Lin Chen! You're amazing!"

"You...do you have eyes in the back of your head? How did you know he was secretly filming me?"

Lin Chen did not turn around.

He slowly picked up the wine glass on the table, gently swirling the remaining red wine inside. The scarlet liquid refracted a mesmerizing light under the crystal chandelier.

He brought the glass to his lips and took a small sip.

Then, in a lazy and casual tone, he spoke softly.

"No."

"It was that lewd restlessness in his heart that disturbed my meal."

In short, it's a simple, understated statement.

But like a pebble thrown into the center of a lake, it stirred up a monstrous wave in Su Ke'er's heart!

What... what kind of divine statement is this!

He's so handsome!

Su Ke'er felt as if her heart was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, and then soaked in a honey pot.

She cupped her hands around her heart, her baby face radiating utter admiration. Gazing at Lin Chen's profile, she completely transformed into his number one fangirl.

Having just finished the handover, Su Qingge turned around and witnessed the entire scene.

She saw her best friend, Su Ke'er, who was usually arrogant and disdainful of all suitors, looking up at Lin Chen with an almost infatuated gaze.

A strange emotion quietly took hold of her heart.

The feeling was strange; it wasn't like anger, but more like discovering an uncontrollable variable in her own territory, which instinctively made her feel a sense of irritation and... displeasure.

She subconsciously pursed her lips, her cool gaze shifting unnaturally elsewhere, pretending to look at the night view outside the window.

This subtle movement did not escape Lin Chen's eyes.

Su Qingge's slightly pursed lips revealed her repression and dissatisfaction.

Uncontrolled pupil contraction is a manifestation of true emotional fluctuations.

A playful smile curved at the corners of Lin Chen's lips.

This aloof policewoman seems... to be jealous?

Soon, police officers from the local police station arrived and, amidst enthusiastic applause from the surrounding diners, dragged the still wailing perpetrator away like a dead dog.

Su Qingge, the police officer who was in charge of controlling the suspect at the scene, briefly exchanged a few words with her colleagues and took a statement.

After this battle, it was clear that they couldn't eat the meal.

After the commotion subsided, the three of them left the restaurant, ready to go home.

Just then, Su Qingge's phone rang urgently.

She answered the phone, and after listening to only a few sentences, her expression instantly became extremely serious.

"What?"

"An abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city?"

"An unidentified female corpse has been discovered. Her clothing features... are highly similar to those of the Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School student who went missing a week ago?"

After hanging up the phone, the sharp aura of a criminal police officer emanating from Su Qingge instantly rose up.

She glanced at Su Ke'er beside her, who was still shaken, and frowned slightly.

With her mission in hand, she clearly couldn't take her best friend home anymore.

Her gaze shifted to Lin Chen, who stood calmly to the side, her tone carrying an unyielding plea.

"Lin Chen, I have to get back to my unit immediately. Could you please take Ke'er home?"

"it is good."

Lin Chen nodded in agreement, then changed the subject, giving her a mischievous wink.

"But Officer Su, you owe me two meals now."

Su Qingge was taken aback, but then she understood what he meant. A faint blush appeared on her usually frost-covered face, but it was quickly replaced by the urgency of the mission.

"I've got it."

She nodded heavily, said no more, turned and walked quickly to her car, then hurried away.

In the night wind, only a dashing figure remained.

Lin Chen led Su Ke'er to the parking lot.

As he pressed the car key, a deep gray Audi RS7 not far away responded with a low thud. Its smooth and powerful body lines resembled a beast poised to pounce in the night.

"Wow!"

Su Ke'er's eyes lit up once again.

She sat in the passenger seat, enjoying the comfort of being wrapped in genuine leather seats. Her little hands touched the exquisite interior of the car, her curiosity overflowing.

"Lin Chen, who exactly are you? You can catch bad guys and drive such a cool car!"

Lin Chen didn't answer and stepped on the gas.

The V8 engine roared like a beast, and the intense acceleration pressed Su Ke'er firmly into her seat. With an excited scream, the RS7, like a black lightning bolt, merged into the city traffic.

Inside the car, Su Ke'er completely turned on her talkative mode.

"Lin Chen, how old are you? Where are you from? What's your zodiac sign? What kind of music do you like?"

"Are you and Qingge on a blind date?"

Faced with Su Ke'er's interrogation, which resembled a census, Lin Chen held the steering wheel with one hand, his eyes fixed straight ahead, and simply gave perfunctory answers.

"Um."

"ah."

"oh."

"no."

Seeing Lin Chen's cold attitude, Su Ke'er puffed out her cheeks in frustration.

The atmosphere in the car became somewhat awkward for a moment.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, her face turned slightly pale, and she leaned forward abruptly, leaning close to Lin Chen's ear mysteriously.

"By the way, Lin Chen, that student from Jiangcheng No. 1 High School that Qingge mentioned on the phone earlier..."

"A really scary ghost story has been circulating at our school lately..."
