Criminal Investigation Unit, meeting room. The room was pitch black, filled with the faint sound of breathing and the subtle smell of men’s sweat. Apart from these sensations, there was nothing else—only silence. The only light came from the screen at the front of the room. Even in a movie theater, the atmosphere would not be as quiet or as tense as it was now. Suddenly, a voice broke the silence. "Criminal psychology mentions a certain condition, where some individuals, due to both their…-

"It's over, this case is totally blown." Leaning back in his chair, Xiao Yu didn’t even bother to open the other folders. He also ignored the pale-faced and shell-shocked Guo Qiang and the others beside him. Instead, he muttered to himself, "That family of three, were they really innocent? If they were innocent, then why did they have something like this? Why would the killer come after it? Because this thing was his to begin with, right? No wonder the deaths of the family seemed so natural,…

Shi Ji's battles were always swift and decisive, with no wasted movements. After seeing Shi Ji fight so many times, Lin Xinyan couldn't help but admire him deeply. It was clear that without tremendous strength, he wouldn't be able to fight like this. It seemed like he never worried about the consequences of his battles—just like he always said, "Just do it." Now, watching Shi Ji effortlessly take down another Nether-level monster, Lin Xinyan still felt a sense of awe. She couldn't help but…-

Shi Ji had finally made up his mind to become a hero and was all set to start raking in the cash. But after arriving at the registration office, he was met with an unexpected setback. It was infuriating. When he shouted out his frustration, it caught the attention of others. One person even clenched his fist and swung at Shi Ji. "You punk! How dare you insult the Star Alliance? I'll teach you a lesson!" The person attacking Shi Ji sounded familiar, like he'd heard that voice somewhere before. Shi…

The next morning, after having breakfast, the four of them went their separate ways. The streets were eerily empty. If not for the few pedestrians still walking around, the city might have seemed like a ghost town, causing unease among those who remained. The frequent appearances of creatures were undoubtedly the reason behind this desolation. As Lin Xinyan looked back, she suddenly noticed that Shi Ji wasn't heading to his assigned area as planned. Instead, he was making his way straight towards the…

Shi Ji suddenly felt like he was about to break down. After everything he had gone through, big and small, and spending more than a year at the Star Hero Academy, having visited the Star Alliance several times, this was the first time he’d ever heard that heroes actually received a salary. In his mind, heroes were simply symbols of justice, admired and revered, gaining a sense of superiority and attention. But a salary? How was it that heroes also earned a paycheck? Lin Xinyan, Xing Yuxiu,…

That day, all four of them encountered attacks from anomalies, but thankfully, none of them were seriously affected. They managed to handle the situation smoothly. In the afternoon, the group met up, grabbed something to eat, and then found a nearby inn to stay for the night. It was then that Shi Ji learned something important. During special periods like this, when heroes were actively on duty, the public had an obligation to cooperate with them. A public announcement had been made stating that,…

Shi Ji was feeling quite puzzled now. Why did it seem like everywhere he went, he encountered monsters? This never happened before. At the same spot in the center of the square where the earlier explosion had occurred, another anomaly had emerged from the crater. This one looked much better than the last, with an exoskeleton and armor-like skin. It seemed to be modeled after some kind of insect. From a distance, it appeared huge—around four or five meters tall. One wasn’t enough,…

With someone taking care of the monster, Shi Ji couldn't be happier. His main concern right now was the money—figuring out how to open the safe and smoothly get his hands on it. Even though there was a battle happening right in front of him, Shi Ji was still sitting comfortably on the side, fully focused on his task. Not many people could stay so calm in a situation like this, worrying only about their own business. Of course, it wasn’t like Shi Ji wasn’t paying attention to the fight. While…

Red Moon’s attitude left Wu Qingsong momentarily stunned. He quickly responded, “Fine, after we leave, you can jump into the sea and kill yourself.” This statement left Red Moon and Ram utterly speechless. Red Moon’s face turned bright red, while Wu Qingsong pulled Ram away and turned to leave. To be honest, he felt a bit guilty when he and Ram came to see Red Moon. Although Red Moon was technically a hostage, taking her from the Imperial City was partly to ensure their group’s…-
