Regarding Bai Chen, Qin Feng stayed up all night to conduct a detailed investigation into the other party's family background and life trajectory from childhood to adulthood.

Then, with a serious expression, he came to a conclusion.

—The other party is a deeply hidden antisocial personality.

Although the other party came from a wealthy family, their family suffered a sudden tragedy when they were young. Their parents died one after another, and their property was completely divided up. After that sudden change, the other party was adopted by relatives of their parents and suffered abuse for a long time.

One night, a fire broke out in the villa. Only the other party managed to escape from the flames. Later, while receiving treatment in the hospital, multiple signs of abuse were found on his body.

Although the police investigation later concluded that the fire was caused by aging wiring, he still felt something was off. So he set aside a morning to investigate the matter. He not only went through the files that had been sealed for many years, but also interviewed several police officers who were in charge of investigating the case back then. As a result of his investigation, he actually found a few suspicious points.

Unfortunately, more than a decade has passed, and even if he finds new clues and evidence to prove that the fire was deliberately planned by the other party, it is not enough to overturn anything.

—At that time, the other person was only seven years old.

Given his young age and tragic past, it's hard to suspect him.

It's hard to imagine that a seven-year-old child could calmly plan such a case.

As for what happened next, although the other party's resume was mediocre, having grown up in an orphanage without causing any trouble, a deeper investigation would reveal that anyone who had offended him, whether a school bully or a petty thug outside of school, seemed to have met with a bad end.

The worst victim was knocked unconscious, bound with rope, and then placed in a cesspool for three hours with a ventilator in his nose before being discovered and rescued.

Although he didn't suffer any actual harm, the unfortunate guy's mental state became somewhat unstable afterward, and he eventually had to drop out of school.

...Although that guy deserved it, it was retribution for the long-term bullying that forced many students to drop out or transfer schools.

The more Qin Feng investigated, the more alarmed he became.

Although there is no concrete evidence to prove any definite relationship between these incidents and the other party, the fact that those involved have all offended the other party in the past is quite intriguing.

Although this matter was not under his jurisdiction, once he discovered that the other party involved players from another world, and that they themselves might be a new player, he could no longer sit idly by.

Holding a sharp weapon, the desire to kill arises spontaneously.

The harm caused by an uncontrollable player with a hidden antisocial personality is far greater than the impact of a disaster, not to mention that there is also an otherworldly player with unclear intentions by their side.

Even if the other party doesn't join the relevant departments, at the very least... they must be under their surveillance!

"...Business?"

Looking at the man in front of him who seemed to be hostile towards him from the very first meeting, and then glancing at the ID the man had pulled out, Bai Chen raised an eyebrow.

"So, could you please tell me, Mr. Qin Feng, what exactly happened to me? I've always been a law-abiding citizen."

Although he had guessed that he would be called in for a talk when he decided to go to rescue Suqun, he did not expect the other party to come so quickly.

"You should know in your heart what you have done wrong."

With a cold expression, Qin Feng put down the documents in his hand.

"We do not want to resort to force, so please cooperate actively, otherwise I cannot guarantee your safety."

If it were just the other party, he wouldn't be worried. However, there was another player from another world with unknown strength and intentions beside the other party, and that was the key person he needed to be wary of.

Although it's just him and Nantian coming down now, an entire squad has already laid an ambush nearby, and they are also secretly organizing people to evacuate the crowd.

It would be best to resolve this without causing any damage; if a real fight breaks out, he might not be afraid of the other party.

"So you're threatening me?"

Bai Chen raised his hand to stop Su Qun, who was indignant and wanted to step forward to argue, and looked at Qin Feng in front of him with a thoughtful expression.

"Or is this your consistent internal operating style?"

"I'm sorry, you may have misunderstood. We came here with sincerity."

Seeing Qin Feng frown, Nan Tian quickly stepped forward to mediate.

"Sincerity? I didn't see any sincerity. All I saw was a guy who was not only aggressive but also inexplicably hostile towards me."

Bai Chen glanced at Qin Feng, whose face had darkened, and curled his lip.

"To be honest, I don't want to mess with you, but at the same time, you'd better not mess with me either."

"Wait, um..."

"Alright, there's nothing more to say."

Interrupting Nan Tian's words, Qin Feng's tone turned completely cold.

"If you won't listen to reason, then you'll have to suffer the consequences. Since you insist on this, then..."

—The sudden ringing of the bell interrupted his words.

"Wait a moment, I need to take this call."

Bai Chen waved his hand and took out his phone from his pocket.

Qin Feng: "..."

"...Just saw the private message? No problem, it's not too late..."

"...Yes, really fierce..."

"...Look, it's still glaring at me now."

"...Breaking the law? How could that be? I've always been a model citizen, okay? I get scholarships every year. You can check my records if you don't believe me. I've even received a banner for bravery and been on TV to be praised..."

"...Apologize? No need. After all, you didn't do anything wrong. I not only owe you a favor, but I also owe you money..."

"...Okay, then that's settled. Thank you for your help."

"...Don't worry, it's nothing, I don't hold grudges..."

…………

"Wait a moment, I'll give him the phone now."

Nodding, Bai Chen handed his phone to Qin Feng.

"Here, answer the phone."

"..."

After a brief silence, Qin Feng picked up his phone.

Then, in the next half minute, Nan Tian witnessed firsthand the multiple changes and reversals in the emotions of his longtime friend.

Frowning, silence, shock, awkwardness, bewilderment, disbelief... progressing layer by layer.

Finally, after hanging up the phone, Qin Feng gave Bai Chen a deep look with a very complicated expression, then took a step back and bowed to Bai Chen under Nan Tian's astonished gaze.

"I apologize for my abruptness. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience our visit has caused you."

"It's nothing, just a misunderstanding, we can talk it out."

Bai Chen waved his hand dismissively, displaying remarkable composure, and answered with a smile.

"Don't worry, I don't hold grudges."

Qin Feng: "..."

...He almost believed it.

After politely returning the phone and signaling the team members to retreat via walkie-talkie, Qin Feng and Nan Tian entered the elevator together.

The elevator doors had barely closed when Nantian finally couldn't help but ask.

"What exactly happened?"

"It's nothing. Once we get back, we'll seal up his file and classify it as top secret... Never mind, we probably don't need to do this ourselves."

Qin Feng lit a cigarette and stared absently at the burning cigarette in his hand.

"We have no right to interfere in his affairs. You know the rules, so don't ask. From now on, we'd better completely forget about him, just like those disaster files that have been completely sealed away."

"Where was the person who put you on the phone? Who was that person?"

Unconsciously, Nan Tian frowned.

"Shouldn't I be able to ask about something like this?"

"legend."

"...What?"

"A legendary figure among the players, one of the founders of our department, and also our boss."

Qin Feng stubbed out his cigarette and took a deep breath.
