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

Late at night, in a private laboratory in the Department of Psychology at Peking University, which is not open to the public.

Outside the huge one-way floor-to-ceiling windows, the tranquil and beautiful night view of Beijing University unfolds.

Chen Yuan stood elegantly by the window, holding a glass of 82 Lafite, a smug and satisfied smile playing on his lips.

Although the "accident" in the concert hall was resolved in an extremely brutal way by the man named Lin Chen, it did not frustrate him; on the contrary, it excited him even more.

"Lin Chen... the new king of the capital... is indeed quite interesting."

He gently swirled the red liquid in his glass, the scarlet liquid reflecting an eerie glow under the light.

"Being able to break my 'Resonance Hypnosis,' you are indeed qualified to become the most important protagonist in my game."

He enjoyed the feeling.

Like a high and mighty god, plucking the strings of mortal destiny, watching them struggle, be angry, and yet be powerless on the stage he himself designed.

He thought his plan was foolproof; even if Lin Chen cracked the hypnotic assassination scheme, there was absolutely no way anyone could trace it back to him.

Those students?

They will only feel completely lost when they wake up.

That computer?

He set up a top-of-the-line self-destruct program, so that even a national-level hacking team could not obtain a single piece of useful information without triggering it.

In his view, Lin Chen must be furious like a headless fly, yet unable to find any clues.

The thought of Lin Chen's usually calm and collected face possibly showing a look of exasperation filled Chen Yuan with a perverse pleasure emanating from the depths of his soul.

"The game has only just begun."

He downed the glass of red wine in one gulp, his eyes gleaming with a wild and expectant light.

……

Meanwhile, the National Forensic Center.

It was past closing time, but the entire center building was still brightly lit.

Inside Jiang Tingxue's private laboratory, this aloof forensic genius, dressed in a pristine white lab coat, wearing goggles and a mask, was intently analyzing something under a high-powered electron microscope, using tweezers.

She was analyzing the sticky note with a smiley face that Lin Chen had brought back from the concert hall control room.

The laboratory door was gently pushed open.

Lin Chen walked in, and looking at the beautiful figure focused on her work under the light, his eyes were full of tenderness and heartache.

He didn't make a sound to disturb her, but simply walked quietly behind her and watched her perform operations under the microscope, operations that were incredibly precise, down to the micrometer level.

After a long while, Jiang Tingxue straightened up, took off her goggles, and rubbed her sore eyes.

As soon as she turned around, she bumped into a warm and familiar embrace.

"Are you tired?"

Lin Chen wrapped his arms around her slender waist from behind in an extremely domineering manner, gently resting his chin on her fragrant shoulder, his nose filled with her unique, pleasant scent that was a mixture of disinfectant and a faint body fragrance.

"Why are you here?"

Jiang Tingxue's body stiffened slightly, then she completely relaxed, letting him hold her, a blush that only appeared in front of Lin Chen spreading across her face.

"Here comes my hero to pick me up from get off work."

Lin Chen chuckled.

"I'm not some kind of hero, I was just doing what I was supposed to do."

Jiang Tingxue's voice remained cold and clear, but the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up slightly.

"The analysis you asked me to provide has yielded results."

She pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses, and her eyes instantly became incredibly professional.

She pointed to the microscope screen and said to Lin Chen.

"Honey, look. I extracted an extremely small amount of plant pollen from the adhesive on this sticky note."

On the screen, a tiny particle, magnified tens of thousands of times, appears as an irregular oval shape with peculiar patterns on its surface.

"This is pollen from the 'yew' tree."

Jiang Tingxue explained.

"The yew is a very rare plant with extremely high requirements for its growing environment."

"According to the Institute of Botany, there is only one place in the entire capital city where an artificially planted mature yew tree is currently in bloom."

"where?"

"The Greenhouse Botanical Garden of the College of Life Sciences, Kyoto University."

A glint of wisdom shone in Jiang Tingxue's eyes.

"Moreover, this botanical garden is located right behind the psychology department building, with a straight-line distance of no more than 300 meters between them."

Lin Chen's eyes lit up instantly.

The pollen from the yew tree, combined with the scent of medical sedatives I smelled on Chen Yuan earlier, and his identity as a psychology professor...

At this moment, all the clues were perfectly connected, forming a complete and clear chain of evidence, pointing firmly to the same person!

Chen Yuan!

"Tingxue, you're truly my lucky star!"

Lin Chen excitedly kissed Jiang Tingxue on the cheek.

"Glib-tongued."

Jiang Tingxue blushed, and although she said that, she felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.

"I'm telling the truth."

Lin Chen turned her around so she was facing him, and looking into her clear eyes under the light, which seemed to hold the stars and the sea, his voice became extremely serious.

"Qingge is my armor, Qingcheng is my sword, and you, Tingxue, are my all-seeing eyes."

"Without you, I'm blind."

This love confession is more touching and more heart-wrenching than any "I love you."

It directly shattered all of Jiang Tingxue's composure and defenses.

This forensic genius, who was as aloof as an iceberg in front of outsiders, could no longer suppress his emotions.

She suddenly stood on tiptoe, stretched out her arms, hooked her arms around Lin Chen's neck, and forcefully pressed her slightly swollen, soft lips against his!

This kiss was full of initiative, passion, and an intense, overflowing love.

Lin Chen was taken aback at first, then took the initiative and responded to her with a more passionate and domineering kiss.

In the cold forensic laboratory filled with various human skeleton models and dissection instruments, the two kissed passionately under the bright lights.

The scene is eerie, yet filled with extreme romance.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

Jiang Tingxue leaned against Lin Chen's chest, her pretty face flushed, her breath slightly ragged. Her usually clear and cool eyes were now veiled with a misty haze, her gaze alluring.

"Chen Yuan... look where you're going this time."

Lin Chen stroked the soft, long hair of the woman in his arms, a cold killing intent flashing in his eyes.

The net has tightened completely around Chen Yuan.
