Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyone chatted while waiting for the food to arrive. Not long after, lunch was delivered by another ESU team. Of course, they communicated through walkie-talkies. With Su Jianyu’s clever guidance, they avoided the drugged food, preventing the rest of the food from getting contaminated.

“Awesome. This is the first time I’ve seen such a skilled newbie.”

The ESU team member who was helping to deliver the food gave Su Jianyu a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart.

“Thank you.”

Su Jianyu took the food and nodded to express his gratitude. When Su Jianyu returned to the room. Everyone gave him a thumbs up too.

“Boy, you’re going to be famous in the Bureau!”

“Yeah! Su Jianyu, you’re the first rookie to display such capability!”

“Hahaha! We’ll have a reliable teammate like Su Jianyu in the future. Won’t be even more efficient?”

“That’s right. Who knows when we’ll be able to go on missions together? When that time comes, Su Jianyu, you have to take care of us!”

As everyone spoke, Su Jianyu passed the food around. Su Jianyu smiled a little embarrassedly.

“Seniors, you’re too kind. I still have much to learn.”

“How modest! Alright, alright, let’s eat!”

When the ESU members heard Su Jianyu’s reply, they all smiled. In their hearts, their impression of Su Jianyu skyrocketed. Initially, Su Jianyu didn’t help them set up the food first. Instead, he went to Yan Tingyun’s side. He removed the handcuffs and released the ropes binding her.

After several changes, Yan Tingyun’s impression of Su Jianyu improved greatly. During the process of releasing the handcuffs, she accidentally touched Su Jianyu’s hand, causing her to pull her hand back as if she had been electrocuted. This was quite an awkward situation between men and women, especially the younger ones. However, Su Jianyu acted as if he did not notice and said to Yan Tingyun,

“Let’s eat, senior sister.”

After saying that, Su Jianyu walked toward the simple dining table that had been set up by the ESU members. The other ESU members also waved at Yan Tingyun.

“Come, come, Little Yun. We specially reserved a seat for you.”

“It’s our good fortune to be able to meet the famous officer Yan today.”

“Hahaha, officer Yan, don’t mind us sweaty men.”

Everyone consciously left a relatively open space for Yan Tingyun and Su Jianyu. Seeing that they did not look uncomfortable at all, Su Jianyu, who had already sat down, smiled at her. It made people feel as if they were bathed in the spring breeze.

Yan Tingyun couldn’t help but relax and walked toward them. Everyone ate the meal in relative comfort. Other than the fatigue after working half a day, everyone was in a cheery mood. Everyone chatted while they ate. It was a wholesome experience. Even Yan Tingyun, who was usually reserved and cold and arrogant, would go along with conversations. However, the main topic was still Su Jianyu. Everyone was growing more curious about this newcomer. The uplifting moment soon passed, however.

Just as everyone was about done eating… Su Jianyu suddenly smelled something strange. It was very faint. If it was not for his extra sensitive nose, Su Jianyu probably would not have noticed it at all.

He didn’t treat the smell as an illusion. Instead, he immediately became alert and entered bandit mode. He quickly found a towel, poured water on it, and covered his mouth and nose. Then, he approached a nearby vent and took two deep breaths through the wet towel.

Almost instantly, a slight tingling sensation hit his nose, and his brain went into a trance for a moment. This was the feeling of hypnotic gas! After confirming his guess, Su Jianyu immediately turned on the exhaust fan in the room. Then, she approached Yan Tingyun and the delivery man.

“Hey, hostages! Stand up and go upstairs!”

He handcuffed Yan Tingyun and the delivery man who had just finished eating. Yan Tingyun was confused. He had no idea what Su Jianyu was doing. She hesitantly asked,

“What’s going on?”

“Oh, I’m still a hostage?”

Su Jianyu immediately gave them a vicious look, making them shudder.

“Don’t worry about what’s going on! Get up when I tell you to!”

“What do you mean you’re still a hostage? Your identity is clear. Are you trying to make me angry?”

The delivery man also started feeling a little dizzy. He opened his mouth and was about to say, “Little brother, What’s wrong with you? What were you doing just now?”. Then he saw Su Jianyu’s bandit-like expression and tone. ‘Oh, are we still in the middle of a drill?’ The two of them were a little dazed, and yet, they understood. Just like that, they were escorted out of the door by Su Jianyu.

Su Jianyu quickly ushered the two of them out. At the same time, he said to the ESU team members behind him who were still puzzled by Su Jianyu’s series of actions,

“The higher-ups are deploying hypnotic gas.”

Su Jianyu had already led the two of them out of the room when he said that. He did not have any qualms with this tactic, nor was he worried that others would think too much of it. After all, special forces in many countries had used hypnotic gas to rescue hostages before. This was a plan that was relatively safe for hostages. The ESU team members who were cleaning up the table were stunned by Su Jianyu’s sudden actions. Only minutes later did they react. They quickly imitated Su Jianyu and covered their mouths and noses with wet towels.

“What a lad, Su Jianyu’s change in persona is too fast and natural.”

“F*ck, I almost thought that we just had a meal with a gangster.”

“So that’s how it is. Let’s go, let’s go!”

“Hey, let’s go, let’s go. I don’t want to wake up and find out the drill has ended.”

The ESU team members did not bother to pack their things and followed Su Jianyu upstairs. After moving to a room on a higher floor, Su Jianyu tied up the two hostages and immediately turned on the exhaust fan there.

The few ESU members stayed at the side and watched Su Jianyu’s response and tactics seriously. They planned to learn from him. After watching for a while, they realized that something was wrong. ‘Why are we learning to be robbers?’ Thinking that they should take things more seriously, the ESU team members laid down in the new room and quietly played the role of ‘corpses’.

Yan Tingyun was speechless as she watched them being tied up. She thought to herself, ‘Why didn’t these silly people join the rest outside and watch the fun?’ Although she had become familiar with these people, her current hostage appearance still made her feel a little embarrassed.

Su Jianyu did not bother with them, nor did he have the mood to figure out Yan Tingyun’s thoughts. He pointed his gun at the deliveryman and said,

“You! Go! Stand by the window! Let them see you clearly!”

After the deliveryman stood by the window, Su Jianyu hid behind him and opened the window. He hid behind the deliveryman to prevent her head from being blown off by the sniper outside.

He took out his walkie-talkie and said to the negotiator on the other end,

“If you guys release any more hypnotic gas, I’ll kill him!”

Su Jianyu’s voice was so loud that it was like a roar. It was terrifying. The negotiator on the other end was shocked. Despite being there, it was hard to tell if Su Jianyu was serious. He quickly said.

“Don’t be rash! Don’t be rash! We’ll retreat now!”

Facing Su Jianyu’s threat, the attacking ESU members could only give up. Although they were practicing, it was a real battle at the same time. They could not ignore the safety of the hostages. Moreover, Su Jianyu was an especially capable opponent, and it was difficult for them to deal with him.

Su Jianyu knew what the opponent wanted to do, and his mind began planning the next moves. At that time, soft ding sounded. The system had choices for him again.
