It was 8:15 PM. The interrogation room was dimly lit, the air thick with tension, almost as if it had solidified, carrying a chilling aura. Tina Shen stood tall, her steps steady, resembling a black lightning bolt as she swung open the door to the interrogation room.
Leo Liu, 37 years old, the owner of XX factory, was firmly handcuffed to the interrogation chair. He raised his head, a flicker of surprise in his eyes—his interrogator was a trainee officer.
Tina Shen's gaze was sharp, instantly piercing through Leo Liu's confusion. She spoke coldly, "Do you know why you're here? Tell me, why didn't you run?"
"I couldn't run," Leo Liu said with a bitter smile, shaking his head. "Once my plan was exposed, I knew it was over for me. But I never expected it would be a young girl who caught me."
Tina Shen crossed her arms, her eyes cold as blades, seeming to cut through Leo Liu's heart. "Never underestimate anyone. You've been to the police academy, you should know the law—justice is relentless, it never lets anything slip."
Leo Liu froze for a moment, a complicated look flashing across his face. "I thought about going after my wife... After all, we've shared a bed for many years, but in the end, I just couldn't do it."
Hearing this, Tina Shen frowned slightly and walked over to the side, pouring two cups of water. She handed one to Leo Liu, her voice like frost. "Drink some water first, then tell me how you committed the crime."
Leo Liu took the cup and drank a sip, letting out a long sigh. "Ha, I discovered my wife's affair with the victim. I was enraged, overwhelmed by emotions, and impulsively planned everything."
Tina Shen stood tall, her tone growing even colder. "No matter the reason, crime is still crime. Since you've received police academy training, you should understand the gravity of the law."
Leo Liu fell silent for a moment before slowly speaking. "Yes, I deserve to be punished. The only thing I can't let go of is my child and my parents."
Tina Shen's gaze was like lightning as she stared into Leo Liu's eyes. She said earnestly, "Your crime is unforgivable, but I will do my best to ensure that your personal assets are passed on to your child and parents."
A glimmer of gratitude flashed in Leo Liu's eyes. "Thank you."
Tina Shen turned around, walking briskly toward the door. Her voice was firm and powerful. "There will be a designated officer for further interrogation. You'd better be honest and cooperate if you want to earn leniency."
As she stepped out of the interrogation room, she saw that the officers in the lobby were all in high spirits. Tina Shen's own mood lightened, and a smile spread across her face.
The division chief walked over, his face full of smiles as he patted Tina Shen's shoulder heavily.
"I've put in a good word for you," Sam Zhao said with a grin. "For your outstanding performance and contribution, you've been granted a special promotion to full-time status. In less than a week, your formal appointment will be approved. As for whether you'll be awarded a third-class merit, it depends on the higher-ups. But at the very least, you'll receive an honor medal within the system. How does that sound?"
Tina Shen couldn't help but smile wryly. Your way of winning over subordinates could use some work…
It was clear that the division chief was a straightforward and honest man—someone who preferred to get things done directly, without the fluff.
Working under such a person was comfortable, without the need for any of the unnecessary politics.
The three vice captains, the instructor, and a group of future colleagues all came to congratulate her.
The other four trainee officers smiled awkwardly, their grins more like forced smiles, as if struggling.
It was hard to deny that they were envious and jealous. After all, they had all come to intern together—so why was Tina Shen so exceptional?
Well, she had cracked a murder case, so there was no arguing that…
With the case solved, the follow-up work would require minimal involvement from Tina Shen. The rewards would come after the case was officially closed.
However, the Criminal Investigation Detachment still rewarded Tina Shen.
Three days off!
Tina Shen was a little excited.
No one knew better than her just how rare vacation time was for a police officer. It was a job where a call in the middle of the night could pull you out of bed and send you straight to duty. Forget about leaving early—overtime could push you to the brink.
Working late on cases was a routine part of the job.
Want a vacation? Wake up and stop dreaming such impossible dreams!
Ding! "Congratulations, host, for solving the warehouse murder case!"
Reward, Skill: Falcon's Eye!
Tina Shen, who had just walked out of the Criminal Investigation Detachment's gate, froze in her tracks.
Her eyes instantly changed, as if a flicker of light passed through them.
The world she saw was suddenly different—clearer, sharper. She could see farther and catch more details. Even moving objects appeared slower in her view.
Tina Shen finally understood the difference between the abilities and the skills granted by the system.
Abilities could directly affect the body.
Skills, however, could be turned on or off at will.
With a blink, the "Falcon's Eye" skill turned off instantly.
Tina Shen smiled happily.
The clouds parted, and the moonlight shone bright, casting a thousand miles of light.
With the moonlight guiding her, she walked toward her home…
