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

A very deep cut was made in the solid wood cutting board.

Lin Chen stopped what he was doing.

Instead of pulling out the bread knife embedded in the wood, he turned to look out the French windows.

The sun is glaringly bright in Jiangcheng today.

Under a clear, cloudless sky, this bustling metropolis operates like a sophisticated machine, running smoothly and methodically.

But in Lin Chen's eyes, beneath this calm surface, undercurrents were already surging.

The throbbing in my heart was slowly subsiding, but the chilling feeling of being targeted by a venomous snake was deeply imprinted on my nerve endings.

Jack's death magic has begun.

Where is the target?

What time is it?

Lin Chen's brain was working at high speed, going through all the high-value goals and large-scale events in Jiangcheng recently in his mind, but he still couldn't grasp that key thread.

"What's wrong?"

Su Qingge's cool voice came from the left.

She keenly sensed the fleeting murderous aura emanating from Lin Chen, put down her coffee cup, and stared sharply at Lin Chen's profile.

Recalling Lin Chen's subtle reaction when she received that "fraudulent text message" last night, her intuition as a criminal investigator told her that things were definitely not that simple.

"It's nothing, I was just spacing out."

Lin Chen withdrew his gaze, gripped the knife handle and pulled it out of the cutting board with a little force, then threw it into the sink.

"This knife is sharper than I expected; it almost cut my hand."

He tore off a tissue to wipe his hands, his tone so casual it was impeccable.

Su Qingge frowned, glanced at the deep gash on the cutting board, and did not continue to ask questions, but the doubt in her eyes deepened.

Breakfast ended in a delicate balance.

Jiang Tingxue tactfully took the initiative to wash the dishes, leaving the space to the other three women.

Lin Chen had just sat down on the sofa in the living room when a pink and white figure pounced on him.

Su Ke'er clung tightly to Lin Chen's clothes with both hands like a koala and began to shake him back and forth.

"Brother Lin Chen..."

The little girl tilted her delicate and adorable doll-like face up, her big eyes glistening with moisture, as if veiled by a layer of mist.

Her soft, sweet voice trailed off with a long, drawn-out tone, carrying a deadly power.

"Will you come with me this weekend...?"

Lin Chen felt a little dizzy from being shaken by her, so he helplessly pressed down on her little head.

"Where to?"

Miracle Island!

Su Ke'er's eyes lit up, and she immediately launched into a barrage of questions.

"Jiangcheng No.1 High School organized an autumn outing, and the destination was the newly built 'Miracle Island' holographic amusement park!"

"The school said that there were too many people going this time, so it is a strict rule that family members must accompany them to assist teachers in student security work."

"I don't care, you promised to take me to the amusement park last night, you can't go back on your word!"

She simply leaned her whole body against Lin Chen's arm, rubbing her cheek against his shoulder, and started her ultimate coquettish mode.

Lin Chen was driven to desperation by her nagging.

Since I had indeed promised her last night, I had no choice but to surrender.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

The voice just fell.

A very faint metallic scraping sound came from a single sofa not far away.

Ye Qingcheng was reading a document when the custom-made pure gold fountain pen in her hand suddenly stopped on the paper.

She slowly raised her head.

Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

The aura of the head of a multi-billion dollar conglomerate was instantly unleashed, enveloping the entire living room.

Ye Qingcheng didn't speak, but simply raised her jade-like hand.

"Smack."

A black and gold card, gleaming with a cold luster and inlaid with diamonds, traced a graceful parabola through the air and landed precisely on the glass coffee table in front of Lin Chen.

The card slid half a meter across the table and stopped beside Lin Chen.

"Miracle Island is a wholly-owned property built by the Yip Group at a cost of tens of billions of dollars."

Ye Qingcheng leaned back on the sofa, her legs elegantly crossed, her tone domineering and forceful, leaving no room for refusal.

"Since Consultant Lin is going to have fun, you can keep this top-level core access card."

"With this card, you can freely access all facilities and passageways on the island, including the back-end control room."

She paused for a moment, then looked directly into Lin Chen's eyes.

"Tomorrow is the day before the park opens, and I will personally go to the island to inspect the work."

"Lin Chen, you're coming with me."

This is not a discussion, this is an order.

This is also a dimensional blow to Su Ke'er's little tricks.

Su Ke'er puffed out her cheeks in anger, about to retort, but Lin Chen pressed down on her shoulder.

Lin Chen stretched out two fingers and picked up the heavy black gold card.

The instant your fingertips touch the card.

Deep in my mind!

[God-level Danger Perception] Like an air raid siren being sounded, a sharp, piercing pain suddenly erupted!

The stinging pain was more intense and more pronounced than when I was cutting bread!

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed sharply, his gaze instantly becoming deep and cold.

Miracle Island.

Holographic amusement park.

A secluded, isolated island.

The park will officially open tomorrow, and tens of thousands of students and tourists are expected to flock to it.

The area is densely populated, has a complex environment, and is surrounded by water, making it difficult to escape.

This is practically the perfect crime stage tailor-made for that madman who craves the ultimate performance!

Jack's goal is Miracle Island!

He finally understood the true meaning behind that scarlet smiley face.

This is a death magic show that uses the entire island as a stake and tens of thousands of lives as an audience.

"it is good."

Lin Chen put the black gold card into his pocket, looked at Ye Qingcheng, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

"I'll go to the island with you tomorrow."

Just then.

Su Qingge's phone, which was on the coffee table, suddenly vibrated.

She glanced at the caller ID, her expression immediately turned serious, and she got up and went to the balcony to answer the call.

Two minutes later.

Su Qingge hung up the phone, pushed open the sliding door to the balcony, and walked in.

She looked at Lin Chen and Ye Qingcheng, a hint of surprise in her cool eyes.

"This is an order just issued by the Municipal Bureau."

"To coincide with the opening of Miracle Island, the Major Crimes Unit will be leading routine patrols around the island and at the pier for the next week."

"Mr. Ye, it seems we'll be meeting on the island tomorrow."

Ye Qingcheng raised an eyebrow, neither confirming nor denying.

……

At the same time.

Office of the Deputy Captain of the Criminal Investigation Detachment, Jiangcheng Public Security Bureau.

Li Mingyu, sporting huge dark circles under his eyes, was staring intently at a red-headed document on his desk.

The document clearly outlines the deployment and arrangements for security work on Miracle Island.

He lost all face in the Ren'ai Hospital case.

Not only was he publicly reprimanded by Su Qingge, but he was also trampled underfoot and mocked relentlessly by Lin Chen, that bastard who used to be a police auxiliary officer.

The worst part is that the inspection team has already spoken with him.

Although no substantial serious consequences occurred, and thanks to his connections, he barely managed to retain his position as vice-captain.

But his prestige within the police force has been completely shattered.

He must find an opportunity to win back the face he lost!

"Miracle Island..."

He knew that Su Qingge had been assigned to patrol the outer perimeter.

This was a golden opportunity for him.

What's the point of patrolling the perimeter?

It's just a thankless and tedious job.

The real way to gain recognition in front of the Ye Group and to claim credit with city leaders is through core security coordination work on the island!

Li Mingyu grabbed the landline on the table and dialed a number.

"Hello, Director Wang? It's me, Xiao Li."

He instantly put on a fawning expression.

"Yes, yes, I have some thoughts to share with you regarding security on Miracle Island."

"Captain Su is fine in charge of the outer perimeter, but the situation on the island is complicated, and we need an experienced person with a broad perspective to coordinate and manage it."

"I believe I'm perfectly suited for this position. I'm making a solemn pledge this time, considering it an opportunity to atone for my mistakes, and I absolutely will not bring shame to the bureau!"

"Don't worry, I will be extremely careful and ensure everything goes smoothly during the park's opening period!"

After more than ten minutes of relentless nagging and exchanging favors.

The person on the other end of the phone finally relented.

Li Mingyu hung up the phone, slammed his hand on the table, and the gloom on his face vanished, replaced by an almost manic triumph.

"Lin Chen, Su Qingge..."

"This time on Miracle Island, I'm the one in charge!"
