What started as an ordinary theft on a train had now taken a strange turn, all thanks to the reappearance of the stolen items. Three major questions emerged. Why did the supposedly stolen items suddenly reappear? If they were really stolen, did the thief return them? Why did the family of three who reported the theft commit suicide? This run-of-the-mill theft case had instantly transformed into a full-blown mystery. On the small scale, it was a theft tied to a suicide. But on a…-

Xiao Yu, now fully recovered, walked into the Criminal Investigation Division. After greeting his colleagues, he made his usual rounds to visit the offices of the boss and the department head, dropping off a pack of special-edition cigarettes for each of them. These cigarettes weren’t particularly expensive, but they were hard to come by. To be honest, people who knew their cigarettes—especially those in official circles—understood the significance. At a dinner table, if…-

Taking a break is always a good thing. Even if this break came because of an injury, Xiao Yu wasn’t exactly enjoying his time in the hospital. The moment his discharge paperwork was completed, he dragged his sister back home—home as in, his parents' place. When they arrived, both his mom and dad were there, and a big meal had already been prepared to celebrate their eldest son’s discharge from the hospital. Even his mother-in-law had come over, bringing both families together for…-

A week later. Bencheng Hospital. These past few days had been crazy busy for Xiao Yu. Ever since he got back to Bencheng, it seemed like everyone wanted to visit him. First, the criminal investigation team came, then people from the city bureau, and even folks from the capital dropped by. Other cities sent visitors as well. Finally, his mom, dad, and even his mother-in-law came by to check on him. At some point, Xiao Yu felt like he had become some kind of zoo exhibit, like a monkey…-

“At least we managed to get it off the ground,” Wu Qingsong said awkwardly to everyone. “Yeah, yeah!” Liuli was the first to step forward. “Wu and Ling are the best and most amazing!” But this didn’t cheer Wu Qingsong up. “It must be the materials. Let me think about it some more.” The crashed aircraft had been entirely retrieved by another giant undead octopus. After instructing the undead sea creatures to tow the Black Pearl back from the distant reef and putting Eddie in…-

How long did it take humans to go from gazing at the sky to attempting flight? Wu Qingsong didn't know the answer to this question. Fortunately, he didn't need to go through the same trial-and-error process as the pioneers. As a modern visitor, even though he didn't have specific knowledge of many things, such as aerodynamics, it didn't stop him from digging useful fragments from the increasingly hazy depths of his memory. This glider—or powered paraglider—was roughly triangular in shape…-

"It's impossible... impossible... impossible..." The young man standing in the middle of the road was trembling. His body shook uncontrollably. His face, already bearing a foolish grin, twisted further into disbelief, making him look even more like an idiot. His eyes were wide open, his arms and head twitching as he stared in shock at the policeman who had just pushed five pedestrians out of the way and avoided the falling car as if he wasn't human. Even more…-

Xiao Yu strolled leisurely down the street as if he were just a tourist. His face carried a sunny smile, while his eyes casually scanned the surroundings. It had been more than a week since the operation to capture ‘Little Joker.’ Today was the final day of the system’s mission deadline. Though his face wore a smile, Xiao Yu’s heart was restless. Was he going to fail the system mission? “Where is the Big Joker?” he muttered to himself while walking. During the Little…-

“The PX18 police handgun comes with two types of magazines—one holds 7 rounds, the other holds 13. The special 13-round magazine isn’t something you guys normally use, right?” The old man’s expression remained calm as ever as he slowly stood up, locking eyes with Xiao Yu. “Before entering the villa, you fired a shot. Once inside, you killed the twins, took out the kid, shot the crossbow bolt, and killed my last two men. Which means there are no bullets left in your…-

The entrance door of the villa slowly swung open. What met Xiao Yu's eyes wasn't the luxury he had imagined. Aside from the spacious living room, the decor and furnishings were fairly simple. An elderly man, holding a child in his arms, sat in the living room watching a large 60-70 inch TV. He was short, with graying short hair, and his face bore the marks of time, though his eyes were still sharp and lively. The old man turned his head to glance at him, his expression dimming slightly, as if he were…-
