When Lin Rui returned to the riot armored vehicle once more, he felt refreshed and unburdened in his soul.
He felt that he had avenged the true Lin Rui and had done him justice, laying down an invisible burden within his heart and mind.
As for the employer of "Dead Eye" Horn—the Chief Priest of the Guang Ming Holy Church—he could leave the investigation to others for now. If they find him, they'd take him down!
In the base city, Lin Rui's power had already exceeded that of the extraterrestrial beings from Tianji Star.
He put away his face shield and took a bottle of soda from the refrigerator to drink.
"Xue Lingxue, I see that your condition is almost at the fifth realm, and your mutation is nearing its maturation. Why suddenly decide to seal your mutation? And you haven't implanted the 'Zhi Armor Dragon Carapace' yet—is there a reason? Surely it's not for lack of money?"
Xue Lingxue's cheeks twitched ever so slightly upon hearing 'Xue Lingxue,' feeling a surge of frustration and irritation deep within, as if nursing a grave internal injury.
In reality, she did not mind others calling her 'Xue Lingxue,' as it made her seem younger.
But Lin Rui used to call her Sister Xue!
She had been writing an action report for Lin Rui, but now she threw the report into the recycle bin, annoyed.
Let him write his own report!
With an even tone, Xue Lingxue replied, "General, I sealed my mutation because of a job transfer, and I haven't implanted the Zhi Armor Dragon Carapace due to insufficient spiritual power. I can't bear the burden."
She wasn't short on money. Her family left her a substantial inheritance, even enough to support her cultivation to the sixth realm and transform into a dragon with ease.
And all because that money was originally intended for her siblings to prepare for their own Zhi Armor Battle Dragon.
"Insufficient spiritual power? I fear it's not that simple." Lin Rui sipped his soda with a smirk in his eyes. "Could it be a problem with your mental state? Your mutation is showing signs of demonic transformation, isn't it? Is it related to that incident that happened in your family three months ago?"
Xue Lingxue's complexion abruptly changed, and all color drained from her face.
Her mutation was indeed on the verge of demonic transformation, and she dared not use it anymore.
Extreme sorrow and hatred had caused her mutation genes to exhibit signs of sudden change, forcing Xue Lingxue to constantly use an enormous amount of spiritual power to suppress it. This imposed a significant mental toll on her, hence her decision to seal her mutation.
However, she believed she had managed to conceal it well during her meeting with Lin Rui.
This new Third Special Operations Division he had set up with special methods was now firmly on its feet after just one operation.
Lin Rui's attitude, however, was very proper, "It's all thanks to the Minister's competent guidance and the maximum support provided to our Third Special Operations Division."
"You, you!" Zhou Yunfei let out a laugh and pointed at Lin Rui, "You don't have to do that with me; as long as you get the job done and handle it well, you don't need any of those formalities with me."
This time, Lin Rui had indeed handled things very properly. Zhou had already checked everything; although the reaction of the Martial Artists in Xinglong Hall was strange, the drug tests had no issues.
Which meant, the Federal Security Bureau's self-defense retaliation and raid into Xinglong Hall had no procedural issues, even without a search warrant.
Zhou Yunfei knew that Lin Rui had unconventional methods but didn't care. He himself had nearly been driven into a corner; why observe the rules with others who had never regarded such rules with him?
What he needed now was a bold and brave fighter like Lin Rui.
"Lin Rui, the bureau plans to publicize these two cases, but due to the need to keep your identity a secret, we can't highlight the main organizer of the operations. What do you think?"
"I understand, Minister!" Lin Rui quickly replied, "My identity does indeed need to be kept secret. Please proceed as you see fit; my concerns shouldn't be taken into account."
"Very good! Rest assured, your contributions will still be recorded, and neither the Security Bureau nor I will fail to reward you."
Zhou nodded in satisfaction, then instructed Xue Lingxue, "Xue Lingxue, write me a report on this operation. Lin Rui hasn't been through the formal training of the Security Bureau and might not understand some things; you'll have to help him out a bit more."
After saying that, he hung up the call, and Xue Lingxue, feeling as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly, dragged the document out from the recycle bin.
Xue Lingxue was relieved that she hadn't shredded the file in the recycle bin earlier.
However, considering that Lin Rui had prescribed medication for her, which showed a bit of conscience, Xue Lingxue no longer felt as upset as before.
At this moment, Lin Rui was shaking a soda bottle, "But Xue Lingxue, though my prescription can help soothe your spirit, it's only a temporary fix and not a cure. The real trouble will start when you transform into a dragon."
Xue Lingxue's delicate body trembled slightly before she continued to focus on her writing.
She knew Lin Rui was right, that to truly find a cure, she needed to quell her inner demons.
At the same time, she also felt a bit of anticipation for the prescription Lin Rui had given her.
If the prescription could even temporarily ease her condition, it would be a very pleasant surprise.
After handling today's official duties, she was planning to try it out immediately—eager to see just how effective the prescription from the disciple of Grandmaster Huangfu and Professor Sima really was—
