Zhao Yu's words instantly plunged the entire office hall into a dead silence.

Those agents who were preparing for a major operation were all stunned, looking at Zhao Yu with incredulous eyes.

In their view, Zhao Yu must have some problem with his brain! Captain Jin was the head of the entire Major Case Group's Mobile Team, and they were all ready to set off. Suddenly, you say you want to take leave, and you say it so matter-of-factly, which is really too disrespectful!

Actually, even if there was an emergency, there was no need to report it to Captain Jin. Usually, just getting the team leader's approval would be enough. For Zhao Yu to directly stand up and ask the captain for leave was almost like deliberately provoking him.

Sure enough, upon hearing Zhao Yu's discordant voice, Captain Jin immediately put on a stern face.

"Hey... What do you mean?" At this moment, Deputy Captain Liu Changhu found his chance to speak, tilting his head and shouting at Zhao Yu, "Zhao Yu, are you crazy? Just got a permanent position and you're already acting all high and mighty? Don't you see everyone is working hard to catch criminals? Taking leave at this time, can you live with yourself?"

Deputy Captain Liu's words made the other team members join in, criticizing Zhao Yu.

Captain Jin shook his head very unhappily and turned to leave the hall.

"Look at this..." After Captain Jin left, Deputy Captain Liu became even more aggressive, pointing at Zhao Yu's nose and sneering, "Zhao Yu, you're really disrespectful. What's wrong with you that you need to take leave? Where are you not feeling well? Do you need us to buy you some sanitary napkins..."

Deputy Captain Liu's words became more and more offensive, causing the colleagues to burst into laughter.

However, amidst everyone's laughter, Zhao Yu suddenly picked up the glass cup filled with coffee and threw it directly at Liu Changhu's head!

Liu Changhu was taken aback and quickly raised his hand to block it. Although he managed to block the glass cup, the scalding coffee splashed all over him!

Clatter...

The glass cup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

"Zhao Yu, are you crazy!?"

Liu Changhu was furious and was about to scold Zhao Yu. But Zhao Yu, like a wild beast, roared and charged at Liu Changhu, ramming him with his shoulder and sending him flying!

Liu Changhu's back hit the whiteboard used for presentations, and the whiteboard slid a long distance.

"Damn you, cop!" Zhao Yu pointed at Liu Changhu's nose and shouted, "Liu! I've put up with you for too long! In my eyes, you're nothing! You like drinking coffee, right? How does it feel now?"

Zhao Yu's sudden outburst left the agents on the scene stunned. No one could have imagined that the usually gentle Zhao Yu would become so aggressive.

"Zhao Yu, you... you lunatic!" As the deputy captain of the Major Case Group, Liu Changhu had never been so humiliated. His face turned red as he got up, ready to fight Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu, being the top enforcer of the Green Dragon Gang, was not afraid of such a situation and was ready to fight to the death.

At this moment, the other agents couldn't stand it anymore and rushed forward to mediate. However, they all had the idea of pleasing the deputy captain, wanting to hold Zhao Yu down so the deputy captain could give him a few punches to save face.

However, to their surprise, Zhao Yu's strength was unimaginably great. With a swing of his arm, he threw these strong agents to the side. Some even knocked over a partition, causing computers to fall to the ground and screens to crack.

For a moment, the office was in chaos. Team Leader Qu Ping also rushed over to mediate, while Li Beini hurriedly ran toward Zhao Yu.

"Damn cops!" Zhao Yu roared, pointing at everyone present, "You've always been bad-mouthing me, and I've been keeping track of it all! I warn you, if anyone dares to touch me again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Zhao Yu's rage left Li Beini stunned, and the other agents were also intimidated. No one could understand why the usually gentle Zhao Yu had become so arrogant.

"Zhao Yu!" Liu Changhu was so angry that his lips trembled, "I think... you don't want to work here anymore!"

"Who the hell cares?!" Zhao Yu glared with bulging eyes and shouted disdainfully, "Major Case Group! Pfft! I'd rather not be a cop and lose face!"

With that, Zhao Yu rolled up his sleeves and whistled as he swaggered out of the office. As he left, he deliberately slammed the security door, causing the ground to shake several times.

After he left, someone weakly said, "Is Zhao Yu on the wrong medication? Do cops call themselves 'cops'?"

"Yeah! How could such a gentle person become like this? Like a thug!"

"Zhao... Zhao Yu..." Captain Liu was so angry that his whole body trembled, gritting his teeth and shouting, "I'll be waiting for you!"

After causing a commotion in the police station, Zhao Yu felt a bit better, but the confusion in his mind did not decrease at all.

He didn't know why he had been transported to this parallel world. What happened to the Zhao Yu whose body he now occupied? Was this a case of soul possession or rebirth?

The new memories told him that this world's Zhao Yu had the same background as him, coming from a poor family in the countryside with elderly parents.

Their starting points were the same, but their lives took completely different paths.

One chose to live a life of crime and became a thug, while the other excelled in his studies, entered the Police University, and became a proud police officer.

This kind of reincarnation was truly ironic. In the past, he was often chased by the police, and now, with the roles reversed, he had become a police officer?

Could it be... that I will have to carry a gun and catch gangsters in the future?

Thinking about this, Zhao Yu had to seriously consider his future. Since he had been transported here, what should he do? Should he leave the police force and return to his old ways, or stay in the police force and make a living?

After much thought, Zhao Yu quickly made a wise decision: Damn it, to celebrate my successful reincarnation, I should indulge myself first!

Before his execution, he had been in prison for two whole years and hadn't had any fun for a long time. Now, he wasn't hungry, but he had a strong physiological need.

So, Zhao Yu hailed a taxi and planned to go to the city's red-light district to indulge himself and solve his physiological needs. Other matters could be considered later.

The car started, and Zhao Yu saw a pack of cigarettes next to the driver. Without asking if the driver was okay with it, he took the cigarettes and put one in his mouth.

The driver was quite considerate and even took out a lighter to give to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu lit the cigarette, but after just one puff, he started coughing violently, as if he had choked.

"Cough... cough... cough..."

He coughed so hard that it felt like his lungs were about to burst, causing him great discomfort.

Damn it!

Zhao Yu cursed in his heart. Could it be that this world's Zhao Yu doesn't know how to smoke?

Just as he thought this, his head buzzed, and a clear, gender-neutral voice suddenly rang out:

"Encounter System activated, randomly selecting a hexagram..."

"What the hell?" Zhao Yu asked the driver, but the driver's innocent expression showed that he had no idea.

Zhao Yu then realized that the voice was only audible to him.

"Hexagram of Gèn and Duì!" The voice in his head was concise and powerful, "Gèn is the mountain, Duì is the marsh. Containing the mountain and revealing the water, the qi flows smoothly, the five pulses move..."

The words were spoken quickly and abruptly stopped, returning to silence.

This left Zhao Yu dazed, not remembering a single word.

What the hell is this?

Why is there a voice in my head?

Am I having some kind of problem?

Wait a minute!

Suddenly, Zhao Yu remembered the first four words—Encounter System!

Encounter System!?

Oh...

Familiar with the trope, Zhao Yu finally recalled that in the穿越 (穿越) stories he knew, there would always be a magical system. With this system, all kinds of success and face-saving could be achieved!

Ha ha ha...

Damn it!

I actually got a system too?

But... what is this Encounter System for?
