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

The heavy footsteps echoed through the dark underground passage.

Fully armed special police officers flooded into the core control room like a tidal wave.

The beams of tactical flashlights swayed wildly through the wrecked ruins, illuminating the faces etched with shock.

Su Qingge was at the forefront.

The Type 92 pistol in her hand hadn't even been sheathed yet, and her eyes, which were usually as cold as ice, were now filled with fine blood vessels.

When she saw Lin Chen standing unharmed in the center of the ruins, all the strength in her body seemed to be drained away instantly.

"Lin Chen..."

Su Qingge murmured, her voice terribly hoarse.

Ignoring the puddles and sparks, she rushed towards Lin Chen like a madwoman.

Only when her fingertips touched Lin Chen's warm and firm chest did her heart, which had been hanging in her throat, finally settle back into her stomach.

Her eyes turned bright red in an instant, but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.

Li Mingyu followed closely behind.

He originally wanted to show off his authority as the deputy captain of the criminal investigation team, but when he saw the terrible scene on the ground, he froze on the spot.

On the ground, Jack the Magician, who had once given police forces around the world a major headache and was listed as an S-class international fugitive, was now curled up in a puddle like a dead dog.

Jack's limbs were twisted at an extremely bizarre angle, blood stained the surrounding water, and he could only utter weak and desperate cries.

Li Mingyu's brain went blank for a second.

He knew Jack's background all too well; he was a powerful figure in the underworld.

But now, this demon has actually been crippled by Lin Chen with his bare hands?

Jealousy, fear, and a deep sense of powerlessness intertwined in Li Mingyu's heart.

Looking at Lin Chen's tall and straight back, he felt a sense of despair for the first time that he would never be able to catch up with him in this lifetime.

Lin Chen ignored the horrified looks around him.

At this moment, the system's notification sounds were exploding in his mind like a machine gun.

[Ding! Mission objective detected: Completely destroy the 'Magician's' death game and rescue 100,000 hostages!]

[Reward 3: All physical attributes +10! Charm +20!]

A warm current instantly swept over Lin Chen's entire body, and the slight fatigue he had felt from the battle vanished completely.

He could clearly feel that the density of his bones and muscles had once again risen to an inhuman level.

Even more remarkably, when he looked at the broken servers and sophisticated electronic components around him, these things were no longer parts in his eyes, but clear lines of logic.

If he wanted, he could reassemble this pile of scrap metal into a more powerful computer in a minute.

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Lin Chen's lips.

This is a huge profit.

"Take it away. This trash is quite resilient; it won't die anytime soon."

Lin Chen casually tossed Jack to the SWAT officer next to him, speaking as calmly as if he were dealing with a bag of household garbage.

Amidst the admiring gazes of the officers, Lin Chen strode out of the blood-soaked basement.

The moment he stepped out of the earth and returned to Miracle Square.

The midday sun shone down, casting a faint golden glow on Lin Chen's soaked clothes.

In the square, the 30,000 tourists who had been in despair but were now freed were stunned into silence for half a second when they saw Lin Chen appear.

Followed by.

"Lin Chen!"

"hero!"

"My savior!"

A deafening roar of cheers erupted instantly, so loud it nearly shattered the hundred-meter-tall Ferris wheel.

Countless people spontaneously rushed forward, wanting to get a closer look at this savior.

However, before the enthusiastic fans could get close, a graceful figure had already taken the lead.

Ye Qingcheng.

This stunningly beautiful CEO, known as the "Ice Queen" in Jiangcheng's business circles, was completely devoid of her usual aloofness at this moment.

Ignoring her high heels, she ran wildly across the muddy, gravelly square.

In full view of everyone, Ye Qingcheng buried her face in Lin Chen's arms.

She wrapped her arms tightly around his waist, as if afraid he would disappear at any moment.

Tears streamed down his face, soaking Lin Chen's clothes.

"You scared me to death... Lin Chen, what would I do if something happened to you...?"

Ye Qingcheng's voice was filled with intense sobs, and the heartfelt dependence she expressed brought tears to the eyes of countless men around her.

"Wow—! Brother Lin Chen!"

Su Ke'er was not to be outdone. The little girl cried even harder, turning into a koala and clinging tightly to Lin Chen's right arm.

Her cute baby face was covered in tears, looking like a clown, with snot and tears smeared all over the sleeves of Lin Chen's newly bought windbreaker.

"I knew you'd come back! Waaaaah, you're so handsome, I want to marry you!"

Lin Chen looked at the "accessories" on both sides with a helpless expression.

He turned to look at Su Qingge, thinking that this official team leader should be more composed, right?

But then Su Qingge slowly walked forward.

Although her beautiful, aloof face still had a slight blush, her eyes were so tender they could melt your heart.

Unlike the other two women, she didn't lose her composure. Instead, she took out a clean white handkerchief from her pocket.

Su Qingge tiptoed and gently and delicately wiped the seawater off Lin Chen's hair.

His eyes were filled with the relief of surviving a disaster.

For the first time ever, she wasn't jealous of Ye Qingcheng and Su Ke'er's intimacy.

Because in front of this man, any possessiveness seems so insignificant.

Surrounded by three beauties.

Lin Chen stood in the center of the cheers, feeling the warm and soft touch of that jade.

Three distinct yet equally captivating body scents lingered around my nose.

This extreme glory and ambiguity greatly satisfied his morbid desires.

Of course, it would have been even more perfect if Su Ke'er hadn't wiped her snot on his sleeve.

Just as the atmosphere reached its peak, Lin Chen was about to say something witty.

Su Qingge's personal cell phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated violently.

Her expression changed slightly, because the number was specially encrypted.

Caller ID: Grandpa (Su Dingguo).

Su Qingge took a deep breath, gestured for Lin Chen to wait a moment, and then walked to a relatively quiet corner to answer the phone.

"Grandpa, the case on Miracle Island is closed. Lin Chen, he..."

"Qingge, let's not talk about that yet."

On the other end of the phone, General Su Dingguo's voice was low and urgent, revealing a rare solemnity and fury among the founding veterans.

"Take Lin Chen back to the military compound immediately. I'll be waiting for you at home."

Su Qingge's heart clenched suddenly.

"Grandpa, what happened?"

Su Dingguo on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment before lowering his voice, his tone extremely cold.

"The core blueprints for the top-secret underwater vehicle have been stolen from the testing range."

"This is a vital national asset, and there's a high-ranking mole within it."

"The other party's methods are extremely sophisticated. Conventional investigation and interrogation methods are completely ineffective. We can't even find out how they took the items away."

Su Dingguo paused, his tone resolute.

"I had heard before that there was no case in Jiangcheng Bureau that Lin Chen couldn't solve."

"Now, I need his brain, and his amazing interrogation skills."

"Tell him that this is my personal request, as well as a national order."

"If he can unravel this 'heartache,' the Su family will owe him an enormous favor!"

After hanging up the phone, Su Qingge was somewhat lost in thought.

She turned around and looked at the man in the sunlight, who was being entangled by two women and had a lazy smile on his face.

I originally thought he could rest for a few days, but now it seems that his battlefield has been upgraded.

Lin Chen seemed to sense something.

He gently patted Ye Qingcheng and Su Ke'er on the shoulders, then turned to meet Su Qingge's gaze.

Seeing Su Qingge's complex and solemn gaze, Lin Chen's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile.

"Looks like we've got another big job coming up?"
