Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Already, two ESU teams were ‘killed off’ by Su Jianyu. Bai Wenlong was stunned.

“Good lad!”

He was quite shocked by Su Jianyu’s skills but was also very confused. How could Su Jianyu, a kid who just graduated, be so adept? He had the skills of a veteran ESU member.

Could it be that someone was giving him special lessons in advance? That would explain how he knew these things like the back of his hand. However, he still had to think of a way to subdue the rookie. After all, this was the city police department’s exercise for the new ESU members, in order to show them the strength of veteran officers. In addition, many leaders from the entire chain of command had been invited to spectate the whole thing.

Yet, at this moment, these leaders were watching with great interest, their eyes sparkled with curiosity. They also had some admiration for this young man’s ability. At the same time, they were also talking about Su Jianyu among themselves.

“Does anyone recognize this young man? His ability is quite outstanding!”

“Is this young man the top graduate of this year?”

“A graduate couldn’t be that professional, right? He’s more skilled than veteran ESU members.”

“Could he be the son of one of the higher-ups?”

“I’ve never heard of such an outstanding child.”

Although it seemed that these leaders didn’t intend to deprecate Su Jianyu. It was just that he hadn’t officially entered the police force yet. Yet, the ESU veterans could not even deal with a new ESU team member who had just graduated from the academy. Wouldn’t they lose a lot of face?

With this thought in mind, Bai Yunlong put the assault on hold. Bai Wenlong once again began to discuss fresh countermeasures with the other higher-ups.

“Old Bai! This rookie is not bad, not bad at all!”

“Yeah! This kid just graduated, but his combat ability is already so high!”

“Right? I almost thought that our veterans were the rookies!”

Bai Wenlong’s face darkened when he heard the words of his colleagues.

“Let’s focus on coming up with countermeasures! The higher-ups are still watching!”

Despite his words, there was still a feeling of pride in his heart. However, the feeling disappeared in a flash. After all, he still had to solve the problem first.

“Aiya, Old Bai, don’t be anxious. Just think about it.”

“There are so many of us. We can think of a way together. No matter how powerful this kid is, it’s impossible for him to win!”

“You’re one to brag! Don’t eat your words later.”

Just like that, the leaders of the city police department began to think about countermeasures.

…

While the leaders were thinking about ways to deal with him, Su Jianyu did not wait idly either. He took the situation seriously and thoroughly studied the structure of the exercise building. In addition, he took out a pen and paper and traced the entire floor plan. He specially marked the places that special forces members were most likely to attack, and made targeted arrangements for those spots.

His expression was stern, and his actions swift. The ‘corpses’ on the ground watched as Su Jianyu rushed over and took note of his methods and efforts. They couldn’t help but be surprised and curious. Su Jianyu was clearly a rookie, and yet, he had the air of a professional!

One had to know that they were all ESU veterans who had been in the force for many years. Even then, they might not be as good as Su Jianyu. A rookie of Su Jianyu’s caliber had single-handedly taken care of two special forces squads.

Moreover, Su Jianyu was only a fresh graduate from the academy. He had just taken his induction oath and had yet to officially enter the force. Seeing that he was so skilled, it was inevitable that Su Jianyu would reach unimaginable heights in the future.

“Sigh, is this kid the top graduate from the academy?”

“Seems like it? That can’t be it, though. Call me an idiot, but I can’t believe it!”

“None of the past rookies were as good as this kid, right?”

“I’m really curious whether this kid can keep his rampage going.”

Listening to the whispers of the ‘corpses’, Yan Tingyun, who was tied to the pillar, couldn’t help but feel a hint of admiration for Su Jianyu. Despite it being her first time meeting Su Jianyu, she felt that this kid was really bold. He even went as far as to stare at her non-stop!

Now that she thought about it, this was a display of strength and confidence! Yan Tingyun’s impression of Su Jianyu changed, and the expression on her face gradually grew serious.

“Although I’m a hostage now, I can’t just sit around and wait to die!”

“I have to think of a way to escape!”

After all, apart from being recognized as a beauty within the police force, Yan Tingyun also held outstanding achievements. How could she be alright with being tied up like this? She looked around, but realized that there was nothing she could use to help her escape.

This time round, Su Jianyu did not leave her openings. Even if she wanted to escape again, she would not be able to do so. Yan Tingyun gave it some thought. What else could she do? As she thought about it, a faint blush appeared on her face.

“I have no choice!”

“I’m just doing whatever I can to escape!”

After consoling herself, Yan Tingyun quickly regained her composure, and several expressions flashed across her face. When she raised her head, she still looked beautiful, but she lacked the cold arrogance and courage from before. Instead, she looked a little more tender and exuded a delicate charm. Following that, her red lips opened slightly, and her voice sounded like the chirping of birds in the morning light, like the echo of a clear spring in a mountain stream. It also carried a trace of the softness of a newborn creature.

“Brother Su Jianyu!”

When the ‘corpses’ on the ground heard her voice, they felt as if their bodies had melted. They could not help but stop breathing for a moment. They did not move at all, as if they had really become corpses. At that moment, Su Jianyu was simulating possible attack routes of the ESU members in his head.

Suddenly, he heard a voice that tugged at his heartstrings. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yan Tingyun’s flirtatious gaze as she looked at him tenderly.

However, Yan Tingyun felt ill. She was disgusted by her own actions. She was not usually like this. Usually, she was called the ice goddess. Why did she have to stoop so low? However, in order to escape and subdue Su Jianyu, she could only endure this feeling of disgust.

When she saw Su Jianyu looking over,. Yan Tingyun subtly adjusted her posture again. The rope was wrapped tight around her body, and her ankles lightly scraped against the ground. Her perfect curves were like the most beautiful melodies in the world. Then, her voice sounded again.

“Brother Su Jianyu! Let me go, okay?”

The ‘corpses’ at the side had unknowingly turned to face Yan Tingyun. When they heard her voice, they saw Yan Tingyun, who was usually as cold as ice, now seemed as if seduction was second nature to her. Their bodies trembled as if they had been struck by lightning, and their minds went blank. They were clearly acting as ‘corpses’, but looking at their expressions, they seemed to have ascended to heaven.

Su Jianyu, however, furrowed his brow. There was no way Yan Tingyun was being this flirtatious for nothing! He judged her behavior worthy of the death penalty.
