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

The air in the deathly silent dormitory was as thick as solidified lead.

The two dark gun muzzles, within a distance of less than five meters, formed an absolute line of death.

Time seemed to stretch out infinitely at that moment.

Su Qingge's heart nearly jumped out of her throat, and she instinctively reached for her empty holster.

However, it was too late.

The file clerk "Old Li," who was disguised as an honest man, displayed a murderous intent and reaction speed that exceeded her comprehension the moment his identity was exposed.

That's an instinct only top-tier assassins who have truly crawled out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood possess!

There was no standoff.

No nonsense.

The instant Old Li locked his gun to Lin Chen's brow, he pulled the trigger.

At the same time, Lin Chen's index finger also pressed down.

boom!boom!

Two muffled gunshots rang out almost simultaneously!

The Glock pistol with a silencer made a strange and sharp sound, while the roar of the Type 92 police pistol in Lin Chen's hand was even more ferocious!

Sparks flew!

Smoke and fire filled the air!

At the critical moment, the stinging sensation from the [God-level Danger Perception] pierced Lin Chen's temples like steel needles!

His body reacted even faster than his brain!

There were no exaggerated dodging movements.

Lin Chen's head tilted to the right at an angle that completely defied ergonomics, a mere five centimeters.

call out!

The scorching 9mm bullet grazed almost the skin of his earlobe!

The scorching airflow even singed off a few strands of hair at his temples before finally piercing into the concrete wall behind him.

A cloud of gravel and dust exploded!

However, the shot Lin Chen fired deviated slightly from its intended trajectory due to Lao Li's lightning-fast draw, and instead struck Lao Li's right shoulder where he was holding the gun.

Blood splattered on Old Li's shoulder!

The excruciating pain instantly contorted Old Li's sinister face.

But the ferocity in his eyes only intensified. His left hand shot out with lightning speed, attempting to steady his injured right arm and fire a second shot.

This is the combat skill that is deeply ingrained in the bones of a top-notch agent!

however.

He was facing Lin Chen.

In the instant he dodged the fatal blow, Lin Chen's body had already moved.

[Grandmaster-level combat proficiency], unleashing ultimate power!

His center of gravity suddenly dropped, his body taut like a fully drawn bow, like a cheetah hunting its prey close to the ground.

The ground beneath their feet thudded with a dull thud from the tactical boots.

He transformed into a blurry black shadow, executing a daring slide tackle as he charged towards Old Li's lower body!

It was so fast that it made a sharp, whistling sound as it cut through the air!

Old Li's pupils contracted violently!

He wanted to back away, but the gunshot wound on his shoulder and Lin Chen's inhuman speed slowed his reactions by half a beat.

He could only watch helplessly as the leather shoe, carrying immense force, rapidly magnified in his retina!

boom! ! !

A dull thud that made your teeth ache!

Lin Chen's sturdy leather shoe tore squarely into Old Li's left shinbone, the part supporting his body!

Click!

The crisp, piercing sound of bones cracking was so clear in the small room that it sent chills down your spine!

"Ugh—!"

Even a seasoned assassin like Lao Li, who had undergone rigorous torture training, could not withstand the pain of broken bones, and a suppressed, piercing scream erupted from his throat.

His left leg instantly lost all support, and he lost his balance, falling heavily backward to the ground like a chopped-down log.

The Glock pistol in his hand flew out and hit the ground with a dull thud.

Lin Chen's attacks were relentless, giving him no chance to catch his breath.

Undeterred by the momentum of his slide tackle, Lin Chen's body traced a smooth arc across the ground before he flipped and leaped into the air.

He didn't even stand up straight.

The right knee, carrying the weight of the entire body, pressed firmly against Old Li's chest!

"puff--"

Old Li coughed up a mouthful of blood, feeling as if his sternum was about to be crushed by the impact, and his eyeballs bulged outwards due to the excruciating pain and suffocation.

Before he could even struggle...

Lin Chen's hands had already transformed into two blurry afterimages, precisely gripping the joints on both sides of his jawbone.

With fingers like iron clamps, he suddenly exerted force and twisted outwards!

Click!

A crisp sound of bones dislocating rang out!

Lin Chen forcibly removed Old Li's chin!

His mouth, contorted in excruciating pain, opened weakly, and a tiny cyanide sac hidden inside his molar braces slipped out with his saliva and fell to the ground.

The entire confrontation, from the sound of the gunshot to the subjugation, lasted less than three seconds!

Completely crushing everything in its path!

It was a one-sided, unsurprising, and absolute crushing defeat!

Outside.

Director Wang and Li Mingyu, who had just arrived breathless, witnessed this final scene.

Their brains went blank with a buzzing sound.

Especially Director Wang, who stared at the "archive clerk" who was pinned to the ground by Lin Chen's knee, twitching like a dead dog, unable even to commit suicide, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

This is the top agent whom their secret service interrogated for three days and three nights, and who showed no reaction even with a lie detector?

Is this the ghost that disguised itself so perfectly in front of me that it even made me doubt myself?

Now, he was crippled in three seconds by a young man in his twenties?

Director Wang felt as if his legs had turned into noodles, trembling uncontrollably, and a chill ran from his tailbone straight to the top of his head.

That wasn't shock.

That was the collapse and fear stemming from the professional confidence built up throughout one's life, which was utterly crushed.

Li Mingyu was so frightened that his face turned pale, his lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a complete sentence.

He finally understood that the gap between himself and Lin Chen was not the gap between an ordinary person and a genius.

It's the difference between heaven and earth!

inside the room.

Lin Chen expressionlessly put Old Li's chin back in place, then, like dragging away trash, he tied his hands behind his back and bound them tightly with a belt.

Having done all this, he didn't even bother to look at the top assassin, whose face had turned ashen and who had completely given up resistance.

Lin Chen stood up and dusted off his hands.

His gaze inadvertently met Su Qingge's.

Those eyes, usually as cold as ice, were now churning with a stormy sea—a mixture of relief that he was unharmed, shock at his ruthless methods, and even a hint of fascination with this extreme violence that she herself was unaware of.

Lin Chen simply and calmly withdrew his gaze.

[Divine Insight], fully activated!

Lin Chen's eyes seemed to transform into two high-precision X-ray scanners, beginning to scan the cramped employee dormitory inch by inch.

The wall material, the gaps in the furniture, the wear and tear on the floor...

Everything was deconstructed into the most primitive data stream in his eyes.

Less than five seconds.

His gaze instantly locked onto the underside of Old Li's single bed.

The walls there looked flawless.

But in Lin Chen's field of vision, a crack in the wall, less than 0.1 millimeters wide and perfectly disguised by dust and putty, was clearly visible.
