"Mr. Chen An, you can tell me now what you want me to help you with," Brandon said.

Upon hearing this, he also stated his request, "It's like this, Chief Brandon, I'm planning to start a security company recently, and I've been struggling to choose a guarantor."

"So you want me to be your guarantor?" Brandon guessed Chen An's request and spoke first.

Chen An nodded, "Yes, this isn't a big favor."

Brandon pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "This matter isn't a huge deal, but it's not insignificant either. After all, the guarantor also needs to bear some responsibility. I don't even know how your security company is doing. If something serious happens, I might be implicated as well."

"Don't worry, Chief Brandon, my security company won't have any of the problems you're thinking of. But words are not enough, so I won't force you if you don't want to," Chen An explained.

"Dad! Chen An isn't that kind of person. He's not asking you to pay money or commit any illegal acts. He's just acting as a guarantor. Doesn't your daughter's life deserve a guarantee?" Eve looked at Brandon with some resentment.

Brandon smiled wryly, "My little darling, you make it sound so easy, but your old man will be the one suffering in the end."

She wondered how her beloved daughter had suddenly become vulnerable.

Then there's Chen An. He always felt there was some danger involved. If he hadn't investigated the surveillance footage in the underground parking lot, he would have suspected that the attack was a premeditated act orchestrated by the other party.

But the result was clearly not Chen Anqian's.

"Uncle Brandon, I don't think it's a big deal. After all, Chen An saved Eve's life. Asking for just a guarantee is already a very small request. Besides, there are so many security companies in Los Angeles, nothing will happen," Ada, who was driving, chimed in.

Upon hearing this, Brandon pondered for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "Chen An, I can agree to be your security company's guarantor. I hope you won't disappoint me. By the way, what do you plan to call your security company?"

Upon hearing this, Chen An was overjoyed.

I didn't expect that he would solve the problem of finding a guarantor so quickly. With a bureau chief as guarantor, I think that guarantee carries some weight.

Then, in response to Brandon's question, he said, "It's called S.H.I.E.L.D. Security Company, or S.H.I.E.L.D. for short."

"What a powerful name! No wonder Chen An came up with it!" Eve praised.

"It's certainly an eye-opener, but running a security company doesn't seem so easy. Security work in the United States is basically contracted out to the top security companies. If you try to start one, you could easily go bankrupt," Brandon said.

Chen An smiled confidently, "Director Brandon, you don't need to worry about that. Since I'm planning to start a security company, I've already made the plans. If you have any security assignments, you can call me. I guarantee you'll have a unique experience."

These words immediately piqued Brandon's curiosity. "Really? I'll have time to try it out, but the best in Los Angeles is still Cobra. They have a history of over a hundred years, and the security inside is excellent."

"Haha, you haven't experienced what I've been through. Judging from today's situation, Chief Brandon, you must have made quite a few enemies. I don't mean anything by it, but if you ever encounter any problems you can't solve, you can really come to me."

"Okay." Brandon nodded nonchalantly.

Brandon didn't react much to Chen An's words, simply seeing them as the ambition of a young man who had just started a company!

"Mr. Chen, I believe you!" Eve said.

Chen An smiled and said, "If you still want to work at Anywhere, just follow Chen Wan after get off work. That way, at least you won't encounter any danger."

"Yes!" Eve nodded emphatically. "Thank you, Chen An."

"Let's help each other out," Chen An said.

After all, Eve's father is Director Brandon, so offering some help would only be beneficial, not harmful. Right now, he really needs to make more connections with people like Brandon.

Soon Chen An and his group arrived at the police station. After a brief questioning, he left the police station.

"Chen An, see you next time." Eve waved goodbye.

Chen An said, "Director Brandon, I'll contact you again later and invite you to dinner another day."

"Okay, be careful on the road." Brandon smiled and gave him some advice. Although Chen An looked dangerous, he didn't seem like a heinous criminal after getting to know him. He was probably just overthinking things.

So young, what bad things could he possibly do?

Chen An returned home shortly afterward, and spent the rest of the time in anxiety and anticipation until 1 p.m. three days later.

Chen An, who was sitting on the sofa, heard the system notification in his mind.

[Ding! The assassin system has been upgraded, unlocking new features: Teleportation. The number of equippable affixes has increased by one, and the number of assassins you can acquire daily has increased by three.]

【Teleportation】: Once activated, you can swap positions with any assassin, regardless of your location. There is a 10-minute cooldown period before you can use it again.

The number of host terms has increased to six.

The number of assassins you can acquire daily has increased to fifteen, and the number of affixes you can equip has increased to five!

Chen An's eyes lit up as he looked at the new features he had acquired.

Being able to switch places with assassins—if used well, this ability can greatly save one's life, making it even more difficult for others to kill him now.

If you encounter unavoidable danger, just switch places with the assassin!

The number of assassins summoned each day has reached fifteen.

At this moment, Chen An checked his existing assassins and was surprised to find that they had reached more than 300 people, which was already quite substantial. If they were to go all out, Los Angeles might fall.

[Ding! Please keep up the good work, host. There will be a surprise in the next upgrade.]

The system's sudden voice brought Chen An back to his senses. Hearing what the system said, he quickly asked in his mind.

"System, what is this surprise you mentioned?"

After waiting for a long time, the system still didn't speak again.

Chen An realized that he would probably have to wait until the next system upgrade to find out, but the required funds would be as high as 1 billion, which would require robbing the vault ten times. Where would he find so many vaults to rob?

"It seems the only way forward is to see if this collaboration with Black Wolf can find a solution," Chen An muttered to himself.

Immediately afterwards, he began allocating extra slots for his assassins, resulting in another qualitative leap in their strength!

"Boss, the security company has been successfully registered. The office building, training base, and gun licenses cost a total of five million US dollars. We can officially start operating now," Karl said slowly as he walked in from outside.

"So fast, as expected of you, Karl."

For the past three days, besides waiting for the system upgrade to complete, he has been keeping an eye on the security company matter. He thought it would take a few more days, but it has already been completed.

"Don't worry about me, boss."

Chen An nodded. "Now that the company can operate and has already spent five million US dollars, let's hurry up and make the name S.H.I.E.L.D. well-known in Los Angeles. I'll introduce you to some people later. They're all good candidates I know, and they're all physically fit. If you have any friends, you can invite them too, as long as they're available."

"There are also missions that need to be rated. The higher the difficulty, the higher the price. The security personnel sent out are also people I found."

Carl nodded. "Don't worry, boss, I know all that. I've seen the capabilities of your men firsthand!"

"Okay, go ahead and get busy."
