When system cheat becomes rampant!

Lu Hong nodded slightly, "Wan Qiu is a mute, but Lv He was stubborn at first, but after I asked Uncle Chang to talk to him, Lv He confessed everything."

Chang Shan, that\'s the veteran officer with the "S-rank, Turn Back and You\'re Ashore" system, and he had the cultivation of the late Meridian Opening phase.

For ordinary petty thieves, if others couldn\'t get anything out of them during interrogation, they would hand them over to him. Usually, after exchanging a few words with him, they\'d be touched and confess everything easily.

Lu Hong continued, "Lv He and Wan Qiu, who was arrested yesterday, are friends. After Wan Qiu was arrested, he was planning to rescue him before Wan Qiu was transferred from the law enforcement office to prison, because once in the prison, there would be no chance at all, so he planned tonight\'s jailbreak."

Any criminal who entered the Alliance Prison had virtually zero chance of escape.

But getting into the law enforcement squad was not that easy, especially the custody room.

"Then did Lv He reveal what his system is?" Xiang Beifei asked.

Lu Hong shook his head, "No, the test results for Lv He\'s system came out as R-grade, and it would require a system two grades higher to interrogate him."

An R-grade system was already considered powerful, with the system itself having self-protection capabilities; even if some interrogation techniques were used, it would be very difficult to make Lv He confess everything.

Of course, with an SR-grade interrogation system, there would be ways to forcibly break through the confidentiality defense of an R-grade system. However, SR-grade Awakeners were too rare, and this small law enforcement office didn\'t have one.

Lu Hong said, "Lv He didn\'t reveal his system, but he said he had the confidence to unlock any lock—so I guess his awakening is related to a lock-breaking system.

He was deliberately arrested today for cellphone fraud, and then he confessed very directly to his fraud, so we didn\'t take it seriously, preparing to follow the procedures. But then, when others weren\'t paying attention, he unlocked his handcuffs and slipped towards the custody room."

Lu Hong\'s guess was actually very close to the truth. Lv He\'s awakening was indeed the Lock-Free System, which was indeed powerful.

Unfortunately, Lv He overestimated his abilities. Although he managed to unlock the door keeping Wan Qiu, it triggered an alarm.

Luckily, he knew Wan Qiu\'s capabilities. Wan Qiu could carve out a space anywhere, and at the instant the alarm was triggered, they used Wan Qiu\'s Reclamation System to burrow into the corridor\'s floor tiles.

Wan Qiu\'s Reclamation System could not break through the walls built by an SR-grade builder, so they had to start with the floor tiles.

The floor tiles were just decorative, utterly ordinary with no protective capabilities—the protective layer was the cement underneath that they couldn\'t dig through.

The law enforcement personnel quickly arrived.

They rushed towards the custody room first, overlooking the tiles in the corridor.

At this time, they saw Qin Yi.

Qin Yi was the only person in the corridor who wasn\'t from the enforcement office, so while Lu Hong was scanning the custody room, they used the dug-out tiles to get under Qin Yi\'s feet.

Then, they threw a piece of chewing gum from under the tiles, sticking it to the bottom of Qin Yi\'s shoe. Wan Qiu\'s Reclamation System had already carved out a space inside the gum.

So, they leaped from under the tiles into the space in the gum, simultaneously filling in the space left in the tiles.

When Lu Hong began scanning the corridor tiles again, the two of them had already avoided detection.

Lu Hong did not immediately think to scan the people there. After all, Qin Yi and the others had arrived later; it didn\'t make sense, both emotionally and rationally, that they would hide there.

The plan concocted by Wan Qiu and Lv He was nearly flawless.

As long as Qin Yi left the law enforcement office that night, they could be smuggled out, equating to a successful jailbreak!

But what they didn\'t expect was for Beifei to unexpectedly intervene!

Xiang Beifei was dragged here by Lu Zhiwei, and he reluctantly checked the scene, spotting them right away!

Their jailbreak plan was crushed on the spot.

——

"Dad, I really want to know, could they pass through the corridor\'s security gate with the chewing gum disguise?" Lu Zhiwei asked.

"Yes."

Lu Hong nodded seriously, "Tonight\'s incident just made me realize this loophole. Although the corridor\'s gate is built to SR standards, which can remove all kinds of disguises, but it cannot detect people hidden in small spaces! Regarding this, I need to report to my superiors and have this loophole sealed! Beifei, you\'ve made a great contribution tonight."

Xiang Beifei tilted his head, somewhat surprised.

"Beifei, your talent would be wasted if you didn\'t become a city guardian."

Lu Zhiwei became the very picture of a die-hard fan of Xiang Beifei.

Although her system level and cultivation were higher than Xiang Beifei\'s, his deductive reasoning was truly first-rate.

"What are you talking about! Beifei\'s talent should be used in higher places. If there\'s a chance in the future, he should work at the Jiuzhou Alliance," Lu Hong saw great potential in Xiang Beifei\'s future.

"It\'s very difficult to get into the Jiuzhou Alliance!" Lu Zhiwei muttered.

"We\'ll talk about it in the future."

Xiang Beifei did not care about working for the Jiuzhou Alliance, as he wanted to focus on cultivating and then take the college entrance exam to get into Liangzhou University and, by the way, earn some money.

"Being neither arrogant nor impetuous is a good thing. Right, here\'s the reward you earned for assisting in the capture of Lai Wuying. I\'ve applied for it for you—twenty thousand yuan. Don\'t lose it."

Lu Hong handed a cheque from the Alliance to Xiang Beifei.

Twenty thousand yuan!

Xiang Beifei\'s eyes lit up.

"Thank you, Uncle Lu," Xiang Beifei said, taking the cheque.

"It should be me thanking you," Lu Hong said with a smile.

He then looked at his own system.

[If Xiang Beifei is willing to make a feedback, you can get one Advanced Pill.]

Lu Hong felt quite anxious inside.

Beifei, would he really make a feedback to him?

After a long thought, he cautiously asked, "Beifei, how are you progressing with your cultivation of Rapid Flame?"

"Still learning."

Holding the cheque, Xiang Beifei glanced unintentionally at Lu Hong\'s system and was a little surprised.

He discovered that Lu Hong\'s system had issued a mission to assassinate him!

Xiang Beifei frowned slightly.

However, seeing that Lu Hong had rejected the assassination option, he felt a bit more at ease.

"Lucky Uncle Lu is a good man."

As an S-level Meridian Opening phase practitioner, if Lu Hong had chosen the [Assassination and Seizure] option, Xiang Beifei would have been in danger.

Fortunately, Lu Hong had his own principles.

But not taking that route, he must be quite eager at the moment.

Lu Hong said, "You helped foil a jailbreak last night; I\'ll apply for another reward for you. Also, I\'ll give you some more items for protection, as a way of saying thanks for last night."

"Uncle Lu, you already gave me the Azure Light Armor and a Qi-replenishing pill yesterday," Xiang Beifei pointed out.

"No worries, having extra means of saving your life is always good. This is a Thunderfire Crystal; it contains the essence of my punch and has the power of a mid-stage Qi-Controlling. You can crush it for self-defense. And this Flame Dragon Escape, for running away—can carry you out in an instant over two hundred meters."

Lu Hong handed the two items to Xiang Beifei.

Both were system rewards he had carefully selected, which Xiang Beifei could use immediately.

Since they were not items from Xiang Beifei\'s own system, their potency would be significantly reduced, and since Xiang Beifei\'s cultivation level wasn\'t high, Lu Hong couldn\'t give him anything more advanced, or else he wouldn\'t be able to use it.

Last time, someone named Xu Yang attacked Xiang Beifei, and now he worried that Xiang Beifei would run into trouble.
