The dagger instantly buried itself into the bald man’s throat.

Instantly, the hostages around leaped in joy, crying tears of excitement, some even laughing through their tears.

When the first hostage dashed out, Ye Chen immediately said to Lingzi’s mother, “Lingzi’s mom, please do not speak of my involvement, I beg you!”

“Mm!” Lingzi’s mom nodded.

As the hostages rushed out, the police began to surround the bank recklessly.

However, as all the hostages got out, a bald head peeked out from the bank’s vault.

Fang Qin rushed into the bank first.

A pair of malevolent eyes immediately targeted her.

“Be careful!” Right as Ye Chen was about to blend in with the hostages and quietly leave, he turned around and realized that someone else was still hiding in the bank vault.

He was shocked.

Fang Qin, hearing Ye Chen’s shout, tried to move aside, but the person had already pulled out a gun, and the flurry of movements caught Fang Qin off guard.

Crack…

A crisp sound echoed, and the bald head appeared stunned, shit, I didn’t fire the gun, how did it discharge?!

Then, blood began dripping down from his forehead as he wiped the blood off his face.

He had already lost consciousness.

Then, with a loud thud, he fell to the ground.

Ye Chen quickly handed the pistol to Fang Qin, saying, “This has nothing to do with me, I hope you act wisely.”

After speaking, he immediately took off the Guan Gong mask, then put it on Fang Qin’s face.

Ye Chen turned around and walked out the door, and the police swarmed in.

Everyone lifted Fang Qin up and began cheering.

The crowd watching saw someone in a Guan Gong mask come out.

“It really is the police.

Look, isn’t it?

The uniform is underneath the plain clothes!”

“Our Jianghuai City police are very competent!”

“Indeed, it seems that the public security in Jianghuai City will gradually improve!”

The crowd cheered warmly.

Liu Qiang, seeing this, was very gratified.

Although he knew that Fang Qin was not the masked hero, this directly boosted the police’s image and strengthened the relationship between the police and the community.

The goal was achieved.

Often, what we care about is not the process, but the result.

We need a perfect outcome, no matter how deceptive the process.

As the Director, Liu Qiang immediately became the subject of the media’s interviews, including Fang Qin, who had removed her mask, surrounded by journalists.

“Director Liu, this time the police swiftly rescued over a dozen hostages from the bank.

What are your thoughts on this?” asked the reporter with a microphone.

Liu Qiang, buoyant with pride, chuckled as he looked into the camera, “This operation fully demonstrated our police’s well-trained capabilities and the continuous improvement of our Jianghuai City police force’s quality.

However, we must continue to strive for better.

We hope our police can become the guardians of the public!”

Rustle rustle…

A fervent applause filled the area, and then, the media cameras focused on Fang Qin, the hero of the moment.

However, she felt very suppressed inside, knowing well the honor did not belong to her, yet she had to carry it.

Director Liu had already approached her earlier— she must admit she was the masked person to enhance the police’s image.

With no choice left, Fang Qin could only keep her feelings to herself.

“Captain Fang, this must be the biggest case since you took office, right?

How did you think of rappelling down from the roof?” asked the curious reporter.

“Weren’t you aware of the danger?”

“Yes, it was very dangerous.

Which task performed by us police officers isn’t dangerous?” Fang Qin smiled lightly, saying, “Why should we be afraid when others are not?

Moreover, there are many other professions in this world that are even more dangerous than ours.

Workers in mines, employees building roads in Tibet…”

Fang Qin’s words were plain, but they felt comforting.

Even though they lacked the fiery passion of Liu Qiang’s words, they brought warmth to the nation.

The reporter asked again, “Then…

How did you think of using a Guan Gong mask to disguise yourself?”

“Guan Gong represents justice!” Fang Qin looked earnestly into the camera and said, “I always believe that good will triumph over evil, that wrongdoing will eventually be punished, even if not in this world, then after death!”

Rustle rustle…

The audience clapped vigorously, creating a lively atmosphere.

The police then carried out three corpses from inside the bank, declared dead from a single blow as confirmed by the doctor.

The hostages rescued from the bank presented banners to the police, gratefully acknowledging their heroic and valiant actions during the operation.

On the other side, Ye Chen walked down a street where there were noticeably fewer people, his figure dashing.

Having rescued Lingzi’s mother and successfully made his escape, he felt immensely comfortable.

Just as he was basking in his own admiration, a voice reached his ears, “Stop right there!”

Ye Chen blinked, turned around, and saw a young girl chasing him.

She looked as delicate as a doll.

Behind her, a chubby cameraman was struggling to keep up, shouting as he ran, “Xue’er, slow down, I can’t keep up!”

The girl didn’t pay him any mind and walked up to Ye Chen, smiling cheekily, “So?

Became a big hero and just going to slip away without leaving your name?”

“Who are you?” Ye Chen blinked.

“My name is Lin Xue’er!” Xue’er immediately pulled a business card from her pocket and said, “I’m a reporter from Jianghuai TV Station.

I’ve been watching you for a long time!”

“Why are you watching me, don’t tell me you’ve fallen for me?” Ye Chen blinked again.

“Tch, in your dreams!” Xue’er retorted and then angrily said, “I’ll have you know, I know your name is Ye Chen, you’re twenty-five, unmarried.

You were at the scene during Ms.

Tongtong’s operation to capture Yan Bu’er, and you were the whistleblower.

I saw you last time during Ms.

Tongtong’s birthday, and if I’m not mistaken, you were also the motorcycle hero chasing the criminals on the highway, right?

Heh, I know Fang Qin isn’t the masked hero; the real masked hero is you!

Please let me interview you, you’re a big hero!”

Lin Xue’er was a Jianghuai TV Station reporter and, in her profession, performance speaks.

The better your performance, the higher your chances for promotion.

Xue’er, new to the station and aided by her lovely appearance and her father’s influence, became the host of a show.

Ambitious Xue’er hoped to achieve results using her own efforts, rather than people whispering behind her back that she got her position because of her father.

“Uh…

you say you don’t like me, then why investigate me so much?” Ye Chen smirked nefariously, stretching his hand toward Lin Xue’er in a teasing gesture, making her step back in fright, her face turning pale, “What are you doing, Ye Chen, believe it or not, I’ll tell Ms.

Tongtong to deal with you!”

“Oh, you’re going to get Zhang Yantong to sort me out?” Ye Chen grinned broadly, “Isn’t Zhang Yantong about to transfer to the Provincial Security Department?

How would she sort me out?”

“Hmph, seems Ms.

Tongtong really has fallen for you, telling you all this stuff!” Xue’er bit her red lips and said, “I’ll tell Uncle Zhang about this, let him take care of you, see if you dare bully Ms.

Tongtong ever again, do you know how many times she has cried for you?”

Ye Chen blinked, then immediately turned around and left.

“Hey, jerk, stop right there!” Xue’er dashed forward, blocking Ye Chen’s path, and said, “If you’re a responsible man, you’ll accept my interview!”

“I don’t need to be responsible to you!” Ye Chen held a cigarette in his lips, took a puff, and then blew a thick cloud of smoke right at Xue’er.

Xue’er immediately choked, her face turning red, her teeth clenched, she said, “You must take responsibility!”

“Fine, you go find a hotel, book a room and I’ll be right over.

After that’s done, I’ll take responsibility!” Ye Chen smirked coldly.

“What?!” Xue’er never expected Ye Chen to say something so repulsive; she just stood there, dumbstruck.

Ye Chen turned away and left.

When Xue’er finally regained her senses, Ye Chen had already disappeared.

Xue’er stomped her foot angrily, biting her lip, “I don’t believe I can’t find you, Ye Chen, just you wait!”

“Lin Xue’er, let’s just go back, otherwise we might end up missing the police interviews too!” The cameraman urged.

“Ah, right, we need to hurry!” Xue’er sprinted away, light on her feet, while the poor chubby cameraman struggled with every step, exhausted and gasping for breath.

After the two had left, a shadow appeared, a cigarette clutched in hand.

A cold smile played across his lips, “Little girl, with your pig-like intelligence, you think you can catch up to me?”

Ye Chen chuckled, tossed the cigarette butt on the ground, and stamped it out before heading back to the Lanzhou Noodle Restaurant.

“Brother Chen, are you alright?” Liu Momo looked around worriedly at the entrance, her heart finally settling when she saw Ye Chen return.

“Don’t worry, Brother Chen is fine!” Ye Chen smiled, pinched Momo’s nose, and asked, “Finished with the noodles?”

“Yeah, I’ve finished!” Momo nodded, then expressed her concern, “I heard there was a bank robbery nearby, that’s why I was worried about you.”

“It’s fine; I wasn’t anywhere near there!” Ye Chen laughed, then with his arm around Momo, they left the noodle shop carrying several bags of clothes, threw them into the back seat of the car, and then quickly drove away from the scene.
