Xia Qingqing pursed her lips to suppress a smile, “Qianqian, is your heart colder now?”

“Qingqing!”

Shen Qianqian and Xia Qingqing weren't far apart, and Shen Qianqian reached out to pinch Xia Qingqing's slim waist.

Xia Qingqing let out a hearty laugh and quickly dodged away.

Lin Chuan glanced at the playful banter of the two women, touched his nose, and said frankly, “I'm just afraid I won't carry the water evenly, and I won't be able to eat tonight, right?”

“Who asked you to carry water?” Shen Qianqian retorted with a playful tone.

Xia Qingqing then picked up the orange juice in front of her and took a sip, “Comrade Lin Chuan, I'm drinking orange juice, not water.”

Lin Chuan breathed a sigh of relief and started eating the prawns with ease.

Shen Qianqian and Xia Qingqing also picked up their chopsticks.

“Why did you take so long just now?” During small talk, Xia Qingqing asked.

Lin Chuan put down his chopsticks and answered, “I just ran into someone from the company, and we were discussing a new talent. Judging by the hairstyle, they're pretty skilled in network technology.”

Karl's hair was relatively sparse.

A sure sign of a technician.

Xia Qingqing tapped her chopsticks on her plate and laughed, “Your company is really growing, and you're getting more and more talents.”

“That's right,” Lin Chuan said with a smile, “This time we're hiring a foreigner.”

“The company's business is expanding pretty fast,” Xia Qingqing smiled slightly tilted her head, “If I stop being a Cyber Police, I'll have to join your company, and you'll have to hire me at a high salary!”

“Your technical level is definitely up for a technical director,” Lin Chuan laughed.

“What about me?”

Shen Qianqian asked.

Lin Chuan pondered for a bit, “You could be in charge of the 720 security system, which is…”

“Security Team Leader!”

Xia Qingqing interrupted with a smirk.

Lin Chuan quickly clarified, “That's not what I said!”

“Qingqing! Don't you want to sleep in a bed tonight?” Shen Qianqian said with a hum.

“No, the sofa's uncomfortable,”

Xia Qingqing quickly replied.

“You guys, are living together now?” Lin Chuan inquired, sensing something was off.

After a moment of thought, Shen Qianqian revealed, “Qingqing has moved in with me; it makes work a bit more convenient.”

“Just for work?” Lin Chuan frowned.

He had heard from Xia Qingqing before that her family lived in Qingxiu District, which wasn't too far, and suddenly she had moved in with Shen Qianqian, which was a bit unexpected.

“Otherwise?” Xia Qingqing countered.

“Did you also hear strange knocking noises?” Lin Chuan suddenly asked.

Xia Qingqing didn't respond but her eyes shifted to Shen Qianqian, and her chopsticks rested atop her plate, motionless.

In that instant, Lin Chuan fell silent.

It seemed that the Morgan Group had also set their sights on Xia Qingqing.

Luckily, both were police officers, so the Morgan Group wouldn't act rashly; at most, they would probe for information or, at worst, plant listening devices and such.

With no missions on the horizon, their safety wasn't in jeopardy.

“My parents have gone back to the countryside recently, and I was alone, so I moved in with Qianqian. Qianqian giving me rides to and from work is quite nice,” Xia Qingqing explained, as if making an excuse.

She was lively, cheerful, and full of vitality.

However, often, she wasn't good at expressing herself, not as brave as Xinxin in sharing her thoughts, nor even like Shen Qianqian.

Therefore,

Many feelings and many things, she kept within her heart.

Especially when suspecting thief's knocks, after discussing with Shen Qianqian, her first thought was that there was no need to trouble Lin Chuan over such a small matter.

She knew Lin Chuan was very, very busy.

Shen Qianqian said that Falcon Technology Company needed help with patent applications, so she promptly explained the situation to Director Zhang Biao and rushed to help.

“Don't worry, I have been trained! If any petty thieves dare come, it just adds to my achievements!” Shen Qianqian said with a laugh.

“Yeah, Qianqian is quite formidable; she's got a bunch of awards and certificates at home,” Xia Qingqing chimed in, flashing a knowing smile.

But Lin Chuan couldn't bring himself to smile.

Ah–

He looked at the two women, momentarily at a loss for words, and inwardly sighed.

I hadn't expected the Morgan Group to be so brazen.

But these types of knocking incidents, especially in residential areas, are hard to handle. Shen Qianqian, being a criminal detective, knew that even if the police came, they couldn't solve the problem.

Lin Chuan took a sip of orange juice to himself and then looked towards Qianqian and Qingqing with a rather solemn expression, “Do you two want achievements?”

“What achievements?”

Shen Qianqian's brows furrowed slightly as she asked.

Xia Qingqing was also very curious.

“We will root out the mastermind behind the scenes!” Lin Chuan said with some indignation in his heart.

The Morgan Group had targeted him time and time again.

Even a clay figure still has three points of anger.

This time, even Xia Qingqing had been affected, which made him quite furious!

But ironically, Xia Qingqing considered his feelings and didn't want to worry him.

This only made him feel more guilty.

“The Morgan Group is a giant crocodile in the swamp, entangled with many forces. Isn't it a bit difficult to bring them out and convict them?” Shen Qianqian had been involved in Yu Keke's case and had gained a deeper understanding of the Morgan Group.

“I managed to send Yu Keke to face the firing squad; naturally, the others can be sent as well!” Lin Chuan said in a heavy tone.

Shen Qianqian suddenly remembered something, “Regarding Yu Keke…”

“What about her?” Lin Chuan asked.

“She hasn't been executed yet.” Shen Qianqian put down her chopsticks and looked at Lin Chuan.

The moment she said this, both Lin Chuan and Xia Qingqing were startled.

Xia Qingqing immediately asked, “Wasn't she sentenced to death?”

Shen Qianqian's face grew somber as she explained, “She is now on death row with a reprieve.”

“Death row with a reprieve?”

Lin Chuan's forehead wrinkled.

“How did it change to a reprieve?” Xia Qingqing hadn't followed up on the case and only knew that Yu Keke had been sentenced to death.

Normally, executions were carried out seven days later.

But now, about a month after Yu Keke had been sentenced, they suddenly said she had a death reprieve.

A death reprieve is a postponement of execution for two years.

Usually, if the criminal does not commit any crime and behaves well within two years, the sentence can be commuted to life imprisonment or even a fixed-term imprisonment.

The most difficult step is changing from the death penalty to death row with a reprieve.

Shen Qianqian pondered for a moment, went to the door, closed and locked it, sat back down in her seat, and pulled her chair a little closer to Lin Chuan and Xia Qingqing before she began to speak, “As far as I know, she made some kind of breakthrough industrial invention, received professional certification, and as a result, her sentence was changed from death penalty to death row with a reprieve.”

“Genius!”

Lin Chuan shook his head and scoffed.

In the span of this month.

Oh no, the death penalty was supposed to be executed seven days later. And within those seven days, Yu Keke came up with a breakthrough in industrial technology?

Isn't that ridiculous?

I need to enter the Virtual World to experience and perform well before transferring abilities into the real world.

The implications behind Yu Keke's case were quite clear.

— Money can buy life.

The specific order: Money was used to purchase a breakthrough industrial invention, which was then credited to Yu Keke, resulting in her death sentence being commuted to a reprieve.

Yet, this is within the rules.

“So, with Yu Keke's background, her sentence could be further reduced?” Xia Qingqing speculated.

“That's very likely!” Shen Qianqian seemed somewhat helpless.

Lin Chuan's brow furrowed deeply as he fell into thought.

He originally planned to compete with the Morgan Group in the arms trade, cutting off their established arms benefit chain in the Middle East.

Clearly.

At present, Yu Keke's commutation from the death penalty to a reprieve undoubtedly shows their enormous power.

Such life-saving breakthrough industrial technologies are undoubtedly like money-printing patents. Relying solely on the arms dealers' benefit chain probably won't hurt them too much.

Therefore, Lin Chuan needed to add fuel to the fire!

To completely sever the lifeline of the Morgan Group!

At the same time, he also intended to root out all their criminal evidence and send them all to face the firing squad!

With this thought in mind!

Lin Chuan finished the orange juice in his cup in one gulp, made a huge decision, and said in a deep voice, “Don't worry, leave the Morgan Group to me!”
