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

Inside the funeral hall, the recorded conversation between Xiao Zhen and Chu Tianxiong exploded like a bombshell in the hearts of all the nobles.

In the recording, Xiao Zhen's cold and ruthless words completely tore off his hypocritical mask, exposing his sinister and vicious true nature.

The entire hall erupted in uproar, with whispers rising and falling. Everyone looked at Xiao Zhen with a mixture of disdain and fear.

Xiao Zhen's face was deathly pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He knew that this recording was enough to ruin his reputation.

But after all, he was the head of the Xiao family, and had been in the capital for many years, so he was cunning and scheming.

He gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down.

"This is a fake!"

Xiao Zhen suddenly raised his head, pointed at Lin Chen, and roared at the top of his lungs.

"With today's advanced AI voice synthesis technology, what makes you think this is me?! This is blatant slander!"

He tried to point the finger at Lin Chen, blaming Lin Chen for framing him with the recording.

He believed that many of the powerful figures present were aware of AI-synthesized voice technology, and perhaps some of them would believe his sophistry.

However, Lin Chen's lips curled into a disdainful sneer.

"I knew you'd say that."

Lin Chen spoke calmly, as if he had long anticipated Xiao Zhen's move.

He ignored Xiao Zhen's sophistry and instead walked slowly to the control panel next to Li Mingyu.

"Li Mingyu, display the audio band of this recording on the big screen in real time."

Lin Chen gave the order.

"yes!"

Li Mingyu immediately took action, and the audio spectrum of the recording instantly appeared on the huge electronic screen in the funeral hall.

Those were sound wave curves that rose and fell in a well-ordered manner.

Lin Chen has unlocked [God-level Hearing (Absolute Pitch)] and [God-level Vocal Proficiency].

In his eyes, these seemingly chaotic sound wave curves contain extremely precise and rich acoustic information.

He pointed to the audio band graph on the screen, his tone cold and professional.

"Although AI-synthesized voices are realistic, there are extremely small digital breaks in the very high frequency overtone range. This is a physical defect that no current AI technology can perfectly simulate."

Lin Chen's gaze swept over Xiao Zhen, his eyes filled with contempt.

"The vocal cord vibration frequency, oral resonance, and even the extremely slight airflow sound you produce due to nervousness in this recording perfectly match the physical characteristics of human vocalization!"

"This is a top-tier acoustic evaluation report!"

As Lin Chen spoke, he took a document from Su Qingge and slammed it onto Xiao Zhen's face.

The document slipped to the ground, revealing a bright red official seal on the cover—National Acoustics Testing Center!

Xiao Zhen's body trembled violently. He looked at the appraisal report, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his face turned completely pale.

His proud sophistry instantly became pale and powerless in the face of Lin Chen's professional knowledge and irrefutable evidence!

Upon seeing the expert report, the powerful figures present could no longer remain silent.

They knew that the official seal of a national-level appraisal center represented absolute authority.

Xiao Zhen's sophistry has completely failed!

"Not only that."

Lin Chen's eyes were cold. He took out a transparent evidence bag from his pocket, inside which was the almost transparent fishing line.

"Do you remember this, Patriarch Xiao?"

Lin Chen held up the evidence bag in front of Xiao Zhen, his tone full of mockery.

"DNA from your bodyguard's skin flakes was extracted from this line."

"This fishing line is the evidence of the delayed-action locking mechanism you used to fake a suicide in a locked room!"

Every word Lin Chen spoke was like a sharp sword, piercing Xiao Zhen's heart.

"Xiao Zhen, do you have any last words?"

Lin Chen's gaze was like that of the Grim Reaper, fixed intently on Xiao Zhen.

The proof is like a mountain!

Physics, biology, acoustics—all the scientific evidence points to the same truth: Xiao Zhen is the mastermind behind Chu Tianxiong's murder!

The dignitaries present could no longer remain calm; they retreated as if avoiding a plague, distancing themselves from Xiao Zhen.

They knew that Xiao Zhen was completely finished.

Murder, fabricating a crime scene, framing someone – these charges are enough to bring the Xiao family to ruin!

Xiao Zhen swayed precariously, looking at Lin Chen's cold face with eyes filled with despair and resentment.

His meticulously planned scheme, which he thought was flawless, was exposed bit by bit by Lin Chen with such precise and professional methods, and finally shattered completely!

He wanted to resist, he wanted to argue, but he found that in front of Lin Chen, all lies were exposed and all struggles seemed so pale and powerless.

He lost.

They suffered a crushing defeat, utterly humiliated.

Lin Chen didn't look at Xiao Zhen again. He turned to Su Qingge and calmly commanded:

"Team Leader Su, Xiao Zhen is suspected of murder and fabricating the crime scene. The evidence is conclusive. Arrest him immediately."

"yes!"

Su Qingge immediately stepped forward, took out handcuffs, and walked toward Xiao Zhen with icy eyes.

"No! I won't let you succeed!"

Xiao Zhen suddenly let out a beast-like roar. He broke free from the bodyguards who were trying to control him, pulled out a pistol from his pocket, and pointed the dark muzzle directly at Lin Chen!

The entire audience of dignitaries was instantly gripped by terror! Screams erupted everywhere!

Xiao Zhen's face was filled with madness and despair. He knew he had no way out and he wanted to drag Lin Chen down to hell with him!

"Lin Chen! I want you dead!"

Xiao Zhen's eyes were filled with resentment and venom, and his finger suddenly pulled the trigger!

However, at the very moment he pulled the trigger...

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out!

It wasn't Xiao Zhen's gun, it was Lin Chen's gun!

Lin Chen was faster than Xiao Zhen!

The moment Xiao Zhen drew his gun, Lin Chen's [God-level Gun Mastery] and [God-level Danger Perception] were already activated.

His body reacted instinctively, drawing his sidearm with lightning speed and accurately shooting at Xiao Zhen's wrist!

The bullet sliced ​​through the air and struck Xiao Zhen's wrist instantly.

"ah--!"

Xiao Zhen screamed in pain as the pistol slipped from his hand and fell to the ground.

His wrist was a bloody mess, and the excruciating pain instantly rendered him unable to resist.

Lin Chen's eyes were cold and sharp as he looked at Xiao Zhen lying on the ground, his tone full of disdain.

"Xiao Zhen, do you think you can still hurt me?"

Xiao Zhen's body went limp to the ground. He looked into Lin Chen's eyes, which were as if he were looking at a dead man, and an unprecedented fear surged in his heart.

He knew he was completely finished.

The Xiao family is finished too.
