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

The moment Lin Chen finished speaking, the air in the study became as thick as lead that couldn't be dissolved.

"The scene of the crime?"

Su Qingge's heart leaped into her throat.

She instinctively gripped Lin Chen's sleeve tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force.

"Lin Chen, do you know what you're saying?"

"The core testing ground of the military industrial institute is a national SSS-level restricted area!"

"Don't even mention you, even my grandfather wouldn't be allowed to set foot here without a joint order from the Supreme Command!"

Su Qingge's voice was extremely low, yet it revealed an undisguised shock.

That wasn't a crime scene at the police station; that was the heart of the nation!

Let alone an external consultant for a local police force, even top agents of the secret service have to go through more than a dozen brutal political vetting and approval processes to get in.

Nearby, a secret service officer who had been silently taking notes finally couldn't hold back any longer.

He suddenly looked up, his eyes behind his glasses flashing with anger and absurdity.

"Young man, I admire your previous bravery, but that doesn't mean you can act with impunity!"

The clerk's voice was cold, carrying a kind of arrogance unique to those within the system.

"The Military Industry Institute is not a stage for you to make a scene! General Su, I think this matter..."

He was about to righteously and sternly rebuke Lin Chen for his ignorance and arrogance.

"Shut up!"

A thunderous shout silenced the officer, silencing him completely.

Su Dingguo's tiger-like eyes, burning with rage, stared intently at him, the murderous aura almost tangible.

"Who gives you the right to speak here?"

The officer was so frightened by the terrifying aura that his face turned ashen, his whole body trembled, and he dared not utter another sound.

Su Dingguo didn't look at him again.

He turned his head and stared intently at Lin Chen, his wrinkled face showing not a trace of hesitation.

Yes, it is a kind of madness and determination to gamble everything!

"good!"

"I'll go crazy with you this once!"

Su Dingguo turned around abruptly and grabbed the red top-secret military telephone on the table.

His fingers trembled slightly with excitement, but he pressed a short note without hesitation.

The moment the call connected, Su Dingguo didn't even exchange a single pleasantry; he roared into the microphone.

"Connect me to the Supreme Command, transfer me to line number one!"

"Tell them that I, Su Dingguo, have used my 'national-level' authority to open an absolute passage into the 'Deep Sea Ghost' core laboratory for Lin Chen, the special advisor to the Jiangcheng Police Department!"

"Yes! Now! Immediately! Right now!"

"Anyone who dares to stop me is an enemy of Su Dingguo! A traitor to the country!"

"Furthermore, mobilize the Wolf Warrior Special Forces, fully equipped and armed, to escort this giant all the way to the underground laboratory!"

"I, Su Dingguo, will take full responsibility for any problems that arise!"

hang up the phone.

The entire study was deathly silent.

Su Qingge and the secret service officer were completely petrified, their mouths agape.

"National Defense" level authority!

That was a supreme command that only the founding fathers possessed, one that transcended conventional procedures!

For the sake of an outsider, Su Dingguo actually used this trump card that he could only use once in his life!

Half an hour later.

Three dark green military armored vehicles, escorted by more than a dozen motorcycles, tore through the night and rushed directly into the deepest part of the military industrial park.

100 meters underground.

A circular gate, half a meter thick and made of special titanium alloy, slowly opened amidst a grating mechanical whirring sound.

Behind the door was a cold and pure white world.

The seamless alloy walls reflected the cool light of the shadowless lamps on the ceiling, and the air was filled with the unique smell of ozone mixed with metal. Countless precision instruments were humming, as if this forbidden place had its own heartbeat.

A group of researchers dressed in white sterile gowns hurried by, their faces etched with anxiety and exhaustion.

Lin Chen, escorted by a fully armed special forces squad, stepped into this forbidden area of ​​the country.

He wasn't even wearing a sterile gown; his windbreaker stood out awkwardly among the group of doctors in white coats.

"Nonsense! Absolutely nonsense!"

A sharp, sarcastic voice broke the oppressive atmosphere.

Director Wang, the on-site supervisor from the Bureau of Secrecy, a middle-aged man with a receding hairline and a beer belly, strode over.

He first glanced with awe at the murderous special forces soldiers behind Lin Chen, then fixed his gaze on Lin Chen, his brows furrowing into a knot.

His eyes revealed undisguised contempt and rejection.

"General Su is really grasping at straws in his desperation!"

Director Wang spoke in a sarcastic tone, his voice not loud, but loud enough for everyone around to hear clearly.

"Our Security Bureau has hundreds of elites, plus experts from the Military Industry Research Institute, who have been investigating this case for three days and three nights without any leads. Now you're relying on some wild kid from Jiangcheng?"

He looked Lin Chen up and down, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

"Young man, this is not your local police station's interrogation room."

"Every formula here is a top state secret. Can you understand it?"

"We will carry out General Su's orders, but please do not interfere with the experts' work. Otherwise, you will not be able to bear the responsibility for any problems that arise!"

The sarcastic words made Su Qingge's face darken instantly, and she was about to lash out.

Lin Chen didn't even bother to give that clown a glance.

He seemed completely oblivious to Director Wang's furious barking and walked right past him.

Lin Chen's gaze was drawn to a giant blackboard not far away.

In front of the blackboard, an elderly man with gray hair and thick glasses was staring intently at the complex formulas and parameters covering the entire blackboard.

He is Liu, the chief engineer of the military industrial institute.

At this moment, Engineer Liu's eyes were bloodshot and his eyeballs were filled with blood vessels.

He clutched half a piece of chalk in his hand, but his arm was trembling violently, and large beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead.

He was frantically working out backup blueprints, trying to come up with an alternative solution before the core blueprints could be recovered.

But he got stuck on the most crucial power system parameters.

Even a tiny error could cause the entire submersible to disintegrate in the deep sea.

That kind of pressure almost completely crushed this national treasure-level scientist.

"No...no! This redundancy factor is still wrong!"

Mr. Liu muttered to himself, his expression on the verge of collapse.

Everyone in the lab was watching him, anxious and helpless.

In this despairing silence.

Lin Chen walked to the blackboard.

He didn't even bother to look into the details or ask any questions.

[God-level Mechanical Mastery] roared into action!

Deep within Lin Chen's pupils, a stream of azure data, imperceptible to ordinary people, flashed.

As soon as you look at it, the complex mechanical drawings on the blackboard that are so intricate they make your scalp crawl are instantly deconstructed and reassembled!

Countless 3D models, shimmering with light, were spinning, disassembling, and simulating on his retina.

The meshing of each gear.

The transmission of energy at every point.

The physical logic behind each parameter.

In less than a second, he completely understood it!

Lin Chen's gaze finally settled on the three core parameters circled in red chalk on the blackboard.

That was a dead end that Engineer Liu had been racking his brains for three days and three nights, but still couldn't figure out.

Lin Chen's face was expressionless.

He casually snatched the half-piece of chalk from Liu Gong's trembling hand.

Engineer Liu looked up in surprise.

Director Wang's expression changed, and he was about to reprimand him.

Everyone's eyes widened.

Under the gaze of dozens of eyes, a mixture of astonishment, anger, and confusion.

Lin Chen raised his hand.

Without any hesitation.

Without any hesitation.

The chalk stubs made a screeching sound as they scratched across the blackboard.

Swish!

Swish!

Swish!

Three violent white scratches, in an almost sacrilegious manner, savagely erased the hard work of Engineer Liu and his entire team over three days and three nights.

Those three core parameters, which were seen as lifelines, along with all the hope and struggle they represented, were...

Eradicate it completely!
