Zhang Shide glanced to the side and saw a one-yuan coin, which made him jump in shock.
The expression on his face was one of incredible astonishment, mixed with disbelief, "This... it's impossible, how could there be such a formidable person in the world?"
"Unless... no, it can't be."
He muttered to himself, and Feng Cai'er did not interrupt, watching him shake his head repeatedly, his expression growing ever more serious.
Feng Cai'er couldn't help but ask, "Chief, could someone have shot through the tire with a coin?"
As soon as she said it, even she was startled and shook her head with pursed lips, "How could something so fantastical happen? It's not like the flying knives in martial arts novels."
"This tire is very tough; only a bullet could have penetrated it."
Zhang Shide's serious face remained taut as he sighed and stood up, "Alas, the world is vast and filled with hidden dragons and crouching tigers, all kinds of thorny figures exist."
"Back when I was in the Yun Province border anti-drug brigade, I encountered a drug trafficker who used a sharpened stick as a bayonet and managed to injure more than ten of our comrades while breaking out."
"Heh, that movement technique, so fast that even bullets couldn't catch him, but even such a vicious trafficker wasn't this outrageous."
"Chief, you're exaggerating again."
Feng Cai'er started laughing and pouted at Zhang Shide, "I know you were in the Special Forces, but don't always scare us rookies who just graduated from the police academy, Gege, there couldn't possibly be such terrifying bad guys, right?"
Zhang Shide snorted, "Girl, no matter what, I'm still a leader, and your elder. Is that how you should talk to a leader?"
Zhang Shide was thoroughly decent, without any air of superiority, getting along well with the officers below him.
At this moment, he made a stern face in jest, which amused Feng Cai'er into a girlish giggle.
Zhang Shide sighed and pointed at Feng Cai'er's head, tapping a few times, "You youngsters, you just don't know how vast the sky and the earth are. There are so many remarkable people in this world beyond your imagination..."
"Sigh, let's not talk about it anymore, let's call it a day. Send the injured to the hospital, and those who are not, bring them back to the station for investigation. I still need to go home and cook for my daughter."
"Yes, Chief."
Feng Cai'er saluted Zhang Shide, looked reluctantly in the direction where Yang Fei had disappeared, and clenched her fist fiercely, "I will catch you."
An hour later, at University Town Police Station.
Zhang Shide, who was supposed to go home to cook, carefully closed the chief's office door and locked it.
He glanced out the window, then drew the curtains closed, and the room was plunged into darkness.
At this moment, Zhang Shide's expression was extremely grave, as if he had transformed into someone else entirely.
He opened a browser, fingers drumming rapidly on the keyboard, entering a string of code thirty-two characters long.
A strange webpage appeared on the screen.
Zhang Shide took a deep breath, entered his account and password, logged in, then clicked to enter information, and a text box popped up on the screen.
Zhang Shide, smoking and with a very stern look on his face, uploaded the composite sketch of Yang Fei and the photo of the coin into the text box before clicking on the search and submit button.
On the webpage, a red dialog box popped up: "Top National Security Confidential File AAAAA, access denied."
"AAAAA top-secret files?"
Zhang Shide was startled and looked at the dialog box in disbelief.
His fingers on the mouse began to tremble slightly, "Triple-A top-secret files, oh my heavens, in all of Huaxia, there are only a few bigwigs who have the authority to view that, who on earth is this guy?"
Zhang Shide was engulfed in extreme shock, the cigarette burning down to his fingers without him even noticing.
Few people knew of his other special identity.
On the surface, he was an ordinary police officer at the University Town Police Station, but in fact, Zhang Shide had another special identity.
He belonged to a secret national security department, responsible for monitoring high-profile individuals with special abilities within his jurisdiction.
At the same time, he also controlled information on dangerous thugs, including secret activities of the underworld, reporting to senior leaders of the National Security Department.
Zhang Shide did not know how many agents like himself were secretly embedded in the departmental organization.
All he knew was that the data on the secret website he served was frighteningly vast.
```
Regardless of their identity, everyone can find detailed information or raw data on this website, and at the very least, uncover some traces.
However, this time, Zhang Shide was caught off guard.
He sat stunned for a full two minutes before he came back to his senses, murmuring, "I thought I could slide through to retirement without any trouble..."
"Alas, such a mighty Great Master showing up on my turf, I fear my peaceful days these past few years are coming to an end."
While Zhang Shide was filled with worry, Lin Xueyi was also deep in thought at the front desk of the Lanting Hotel.
That rascal Yang Fei got into a fight with some hooligans this morning, and when the police came, he vanished without a trace.
As Yang Fei's boss, Lin Xueyi was also taken to the police station to assist with the investigation, was asked a few questions, and then returned to the hotel.
After she returned to the hotel, the ice queen that Yang Fei had saved said her goodbyes to Lin Xueyi in person, and repeatedly expressed her gratitude.
Lin Xueyi did not insist on her staying; she had offended Ma Liu and was in a state of confusion, not knowing what to do.
It was neither safe for the ice queen to stay at the hotel, nor wise, as it could attract even more trouble.
As the ice queen was leaving, she glanced meaningfully at the hotel's sign, silently memorizing the name and location before departing.
Lin Xueyi didn't mind; at this moment, all she could think about was that scoundrel, Yang Fei.
After all, Yang Fei hadn't been at the Lanting Hotel for very long.
Though the guy was slippery and frivolous, he was not only efficient but also didn't ask for a high salary.
Unconsciously, Lin Xueyi had come to rely heavily on this fellow, and without him, she felt restless.
With the early summer weather turning hot and muggy, Lin Xueyi, filled with worry, broke out in a light sweat.
Feeling somewhat irritated, she asked Li Hong to watch the counter and went back to her room to take a bath.
Lin Xueyi's room was located on the top floor, the fifth floor, of the hotel.
The fifth floor didn't contain guest rooms, but rather served as living quarters for Lin Xueyi and the hotel staff, complete with a shower room, kitchen, and other facilities.
Lin Xueyi's room was the largest on the east side. She took out her keys to unlock the door but couldn't help checking the terrace as well.
On the terrace, there were two makeshift rooms covered with color steel tiles; these were that scoundrel Yang Fei's quarters.
After all, living on the fifth floor were Lin Xueyi and four service girls.
It wouldn't be fitting for a young and vigorous man like Yang Fei to live on the fifth floor.
Yang Fei's bedroom was empty, causing Lin Xueyi to feel a pang of disappointment.
That flippant Yang Fei, when around, was always grinning naughtily, his eyes invariably roving over the crucial parts of the young girls, which was infuriating.
But now that he was gone, Lin Xueyi found her heart filled with unease.
She sighed and turned on the shower in the hallway bathroom, letting the hot water flow, ready to take a bath.
Feeling the warm water from the shower, Lin Xueyi's lips grew moist and turned a vibrant shade, her cheeks flushing slightly.
Looking at herself in the mirror of the bathroom, she seemed a bit dazed and let out a soft sigh.
Just then, there was a sudden click from the bathroom door, and Lin Xueyi's heart skipped a beat.
The modestly-run Lanting Hotel had all its staff, including the boss Lin Xueyi, sharing one bathroom.
That wasn't important; the worst part was the bathroom lock had broken the day before, and if someone wanted to come in, nothing could stop them—a push was all it took.
Lin Xueyi had forgotten about this, and it was only now that she realized the predicament.
"Who is it? Wait a moment, don't come in..."
Before Lin Xueyi could finish her sentence, the bathroom door swung open, and Yang Fei burst in, covering his mouth.
He moved so fast that Lin Xueyi didn't even have time to grab a bath towel to cover herself.
Yang Fei caught sight of Lin Xueyi without any cover, and his eyes widened in shock.
Lin Xueyi's mind, however, couldn't react, going blank.
