The cold night wind whistled past He Ao's ears.

He glanced down. The ground below was so far away. The wide eight-lane road, illuminated by streetlights, looked like thin golden threads.

He was currently standing on the rooftop of a tall building, completely wrapped in a black combat suit.

He Ao estimated that the building was at least two to three hundred meters high.

He was fine, just a little afraid of heights.

"Relax, it's okay."

A gentle laugh came from behind him. Selina seemed to sense his tension and patted his back.

Then she walked up to He Ao, stood at the edge of the rooftop, and pointed to a red pull tab on the left chest of He Ao's combat suit. "If anything unexpected happens later, pull this tab. The automatic glider will deploy and take you safely to the ground."

"So, are you ready, little guy?"

Selina turned around, her back to the two to three hundred meter drop.

Who would have thought that thirty minutes ago, He Ao was still in the hospital, wrapped up like a big dumpling, being carefully nursed by a beautiful nurse with a large chest and perky butt.

Thirty minutes later, he was standing here, dragged by Selina and forced to work overtime, performing his first mission since arriving in Dawn City.

Selina glanced at He Ao, a smile appearing at the corner of her mouth. She spread her arms like a bird spreading its wings, then lightly tiptoed and leaned back.

The girl's graceful body fell from a height of several hundred meters. The whistling wind blew her golden hair and brushed against her delicate skin, like a canary flying around an elf.

He Ao took a deep breath, turned around, and closed his eyes.

Humans are born from the earth and grow on the earth, always having a sense of attachment to it.

When people leave the earth, all their experiences seem to lose their effect, and their lives seem to be out of their control, so they always feel fear.

He Ao didn't like this feeling of being out of control.

But, for everything, there is always a first time.

Just as a fledgling will eventually spread its wings, humans also dream of conquering the sky like birds.

He Ao closed his eyes and leaned back slightly. He could hear the surging wind, which was the sky breathing.

The moment his center of gravity crossed a certain point, everything went out of control.

He Ao's feet left the rooftop, and the whistling wind slapped his cheeks.

The earth would extend an invisible hand to pull back those who tried to conquer the sky, pulling these children back into its embrace.

And He Ao, under this pulling force, continuously descended.

Faster and faster, faster and faster.

Until he reached a certain limit.

Buzz—

That was the trembling sound of the thin steel cable being pulled taut.

His body stopped and quickly slammed towards the wall.

But Selina was faster than him.

The young Assistant Inspector directly kicked the huge glass curtain wall.

Bang—Boom——

After an extremely short impact, the glass window, which glowed with a faint blue light, was directly shattered, creating a huge gap. Selina also crashed into the room through this gap. The thin steel cable on her body broke accordingly, and she flew into the room, landing steadily on the ground with slightly bent legs.

She raised her hands, and two small silver pistols appeared in them, pointing at the people in the room. "Federal Bureau of Investigation, everyone put your hands on your heads and squat down."

He Ao also rushed in through the gap at this time. He didn't have the strong braking force that Selina did, and rolled a few times before the force dissipated.

He pulled out his pistol and stood beside Selina.

This seemed to be a large suite in a luxury hotel. In the center of the suite, two sofas were placed vertically, one on the left and one on the right. At this moment, there was one person sitting on each of the sofas on the left and right sides.

The person on the left looked extremely tall and strong, sitting there like a small mountain. He was wearing a gray vest, and his right hand was a huge mechanical arm, exposed outside, looking full of a violent aura.

The person on the right was wearing a silver suit and looked polite.

Between the two was a long coffee table, and on the coffee table were several open silver briefcases.

"Damn Federal Bureau of Investigation."

After He Ao and Selina appeared, the person on the left immediately reacted. He quickly stood up and looked at Selina.

It was then that He Ao noticed that his left eye had also been modified into a mechanical camera.

At the same time, seven or eight people holding guns rushed out from both the left and right sides, confronting He Ao and Selina.

"Repeat, Federal Bureau of Investigation, put your hands on your heads and squat down."

Selina looked at them and said coldly.

"Bitch."

The burly strong man spat, and his huge mechanical arm clenched into a fist and smashed towards Selina.

Selina chuckled, instantly put away the two small pistols, and pulled out a thin steel cable from below her waist.

Immediately after, He Ao saw her body tilt to the side, instantly dodging the strong man's swinging fist. Then, with a light leap, she directly jumped onto the strong man's shoulder. The steel cable in her hand took advantage of the situation and wrapped around the strong man's neck.

She pulled the two ends of the steel cable with both hands, straddling the strong man's neck, and pulled hard. The strong man was immediately choked, his remaining eye wide open, and he tilted backward.

This action looked intricate and complex, but it actually happened in less than a second. In the blink of an eye, the burly strong man, who was like a small mountain, fell backward.

He crashed onto the floor with a bang.

It was then that his subordinates reacted and were about to shoot at Selina.

However, Selina had already disappeared when the strong man fell. By the time these subordinates were about to pull the trigger, gunshots rang out directly in their ears.

These people's wrists were directly shot through by the hot bullets, and the guns in their hands fell to the ground.

Hearing the gunshots, the people on the right who had not participated in the battle subconsciously wanted to shoot. The man in the silver suit immediately raised his hands, signaling his subordinates not to act rashly.

Selina kicked the guns that had fallen to the ground to He Ao's feet, put away her small pistols, turned around and kicked the strong man who was trying to get up back down, and then looked at the silver briefcases on the table.

These briefcases were filled with black sponge that occupied the entire case. Thin, long small pits were dug out in the middle of the sponge, and inside were equally thin, long transparent glass bottles. A light green liquid flowed in these glass bottles.

"IB-Ⅱ?" Selina casually picked up a glass bottle, shaking the liquid inside, looking at the man in the silver suit. Then, in an instant, she pulled out her pistol and pressed it against the man's forehead. "I told you to put your hands on your head and squat down."

A sheepish smile appeared on the man's face. He put his hands on his head and slowly slid off the sofa, squatting in front of it. "Inspector Selina, we were just trying to earn some money for the kids' milk."

His gaze, however, was directed behind Selina.

Among the group of people whose wrists had been shot through, one person slowly took a small pistol out of their pocket and aimed it at Selina's head.

Bang—

A gunshot suddenly rang out.

Bright red blood splattered everywhere.
