Chapter 59: 59, Merit Achieved
“The final step…” Lin Qing looked at the emerald-green solution that had just been mixed on the coffee table and slowly exhaled.
He then picked up the injection box nearby and took out the syringe filled with a pale blue transparent liquid.
Carefully removing the protective cap from the needle, Lin Qing slowly pushed out a drop of the pale blue medicine from the needle tip, letting it fall into the emerald-green solution.
“Drip.”
After the pale blue liquid entered the emerald-green solution, what seemed like a tiny drop caused the solution in the measuring cup to start changing drastically. In just a few seconds, the entire cup’s emerald green color had vanished, leaving only a clear transparent solution and a slowly forming layer of sand-like crystals at the bottom.
“It’s real!”
...
Lin Qing’s eyes lit up; he couldn’t help but show a hint of a smile, satisfied as he looked at the syringe in his hand, preparing to start the injection.
This dose of Super Sensing Liquid was 10.5 milliliters, and the test for authenticity just now used only 0.05 milliliters.
According to the detailed information received from headquarters, a single injection of 10 milliliters of Super Sensing Liquid was completely sufficient.
“Luckily the test method is simple, otherwise I’d have to risk going to a laboratory.”
Lin Qing initially thought that testing such a high-end creation of extraterrestrial civilization might require very specialized equipment, like mass spectrometry or NMR.
Could it really be that this simple method was enough to test it?
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
However, according to the materials provided by headquarters, the composition of Super Sensing Liquid was not complex; the key was that one of its ingredients was not of Earth, but rather supplied by Intelligent Star Group from an extraterrestrial civilization.
“Begin.”
Lin Qing started the intravenous injection as per the instructions for Super Sensing Liquid.
He tied a tourniquet, waited for the vein to swell, then disinfected the injection site on his skin. Slowly pushing, he completely injected the pale blue Super Sensing Liquid.
The injection syringes circulating on Earth were specially made by Intelligent Star Group for people in the urban circle, more aligned with Earth people’s habits.
Within just about a minute after the injection, Lin Qing began to feel dizzy and his vision started to blur slightly.
“Whew…”
Lin Qing leaned on the sofa, starting to take deep breaths. It was said that dizziness was normal—there would be intermittent slight oxygen shortages in the brain, and some chromatic aberration hallucinations could appear in front of one’s eyes.
Generally, after waiting for half an hour, the symptoms would lessen.
In addition—5.7% of individuals would enter a comatose state, and 1.6% would experience a temporary high fever.
Lin Qing wasn’t particularly lucky, but he also didn’t encounter these two low-probability symptoms.
Half an hour later, he was already back to normal.
“It seems a bit different from before.”
Lin Qing closed his eyes, feeling a subtle, strange change in himself, yet it was very vague, like being buried under a thick layer of soil, hearing the outside world’s sounds faintly.
He wasn’t in a rush.
The effects of the Super Sensing Liquid would last for a month or two. During this time, the perception of mysterious energy would continuously intensify until it surpassed a threshold, allowing him to vaguely sense the mysterious energy from the outside world.
By then, he would be able to start learning the Original Chaoyang Training Method!
Lin Qing always remembered—
The Elite Patrol training contract given by Inspection Headquarters mentioned that if he managed to master the Original Chaoyang Training Method and the original “Free Body” Combat Skill within this year, he would enjoy various benefits and perks related to genetic optimization.
Only in this way would there be hope in the future to break the genetic shackles and achieve Genetic Awakening!
“These one or two months, I’ll cultivate the Combat Skill,” Lin Qing thought to himself.
Only eight more days until the debt of the Combat Skill “WeChat” could be repaid, by then, the merits would certainly be awarded.
…
A week later.
On February 16, Xiao Shan District Patrol Bureau held another commendation ceremony, even more impressive and grand than the last one.
After all, they had cleared out an important stronghold of the Yuanhong Society, and the conferred merits included at least two instances of Second-class Merit; naturally, the scale had to be grander.
This time, in addition to the people from Xiao Shan District sub-bureau, other Patrol Officers from Lin’an City’s various sub-bureaus were present, including several leaders from the City Patrol Bureau, such as Yuan Anping.
When Lin Qing took the stage to deliver his speech, the applause below was quite enthusiastic.
Seated in the first row, the leaders from the City Bureau all had friendly expressions, especially Yuan Anping, who kept whispering to a female leader from the City Bureau from time to time. After those conversations, the female leader’s gaze toward Lin Qing was filled with eagerness.
In the second row sat the Patrol Officers from various bureaus. Lin Qing also noticed the top three officers rated by the peer group.
Ranked NO.1, Xu Qiu was indeed very young, although not incredibly handsome, he was quite tall. Dressed in the neat and elegant Patrol Officer uniform, along with his aloof and proficient demeanor, he attracted quite a few gazes from the patrol members.
“Hello, comrades of the Patrol…”
Lin Qing had asked Zhao Jiayi to help prepare a speech for the stage yesterday. After casually making some edits, he memorized it.
“…Furthermore, I would like to thank my colleague, Captain Xiao Peidong, who is a highly respectable Patrol Officer.”
“While I was clearing out criminals from the Underground Boxing Arena, the number one criminal, just before dying, slandered Captain Xiao as a protector of the underground arena. He claimed that Xiao maintained long-term beneficial relationships and had used his position to protect criminal activities multiple times.”
“Of course, I believe discerning people can see the truth. I absolutely trust Captain Xiao’s integrity and honesty.”
“Even though Captain Xiao suffered such a baseless accusation, during the search, he bravely spearheaded the frontlines, entering dangerous areas. Ultimately, while searching the enemy’s safe, he accidentally fell into the enemy’s trap and was poisoned. He is still lying in the hospital…”
Below, Yuan Anping listened to Lin Qing’s speech with a bizarre expression, feeling that this guy was being sarcastic.
Talking about spearheading the frontlines…
Everyone knew it was Lin Qing who single-handedly cleared the Red Society’s Underground Boxing Arena. Wasn’t Captain Xiao just riding on his coattails and reaping benefits?
And he ended up falling into the enemy’s trap because he was too eager while searching the safe.
It sounded like praise but those aware of the situation, upon thoughtful consideration, would feel the sarcasm…
After stepping down, Lin Qing couldn’t help but mutter, “This time, even with Xiao Peidong’s connections, it might be hard to suppress this incident… And since I supported him, he can’t suspect me if he dies, can he…”
Promotion in rank depended solely on strength and merit, as long as there were no clear blemishes or criminal records.
But official positions were different, like getting promoted to Captain; being a Patrol Officer was just a basic requirement, and senior leaders had more factors to consider.
Especially public opinion.
It was okay to be not well-liked, but not to have too poor a reputation.
If Xiao Peidong was indeed an informant for the Red Society, he must have been supported by powerful connections to have reached this far.
With his reputation damaged, evaluations would be difficult.
After a full hour, the recognition ceremony finally concluded.
The City Bureau awarded a hundred thousand yuan, plus an Outstanding Patrol Medal. The money wasn’t much, but the medal was useful; during evaluation, it would become an important factor on the scales.
Afterwards, Lin Qing checked the rewards he had just received on his phone.
“The City Bureau awarded a hundred thousand, the Bureau awarded fifty thousand, reward money was seven hundred and fifty thousand, plus an additional sixty thousand yuan in various merits.”
“That adds up to nine hundred and sixty thousand.”
Lin Qing glanced at his account balance; the nine hundred and sixty thousand had already been deposited. Including the four hundred thousand he hadn’t spent before, his savings had reached a total of one million three hundred and sixty thousand.
Furthermore, he had been promoted to a Second-level Patrol Officer, earning a base salary of twelve thousand yuan per month—just like his cousin Chen Yanan.
Of course…
The money wasn’t the focus.
The focus was the merits.
“Two Second-class Merits and four Third-class Merits?”
Lin Qing nodded slightly, very pleased with himself.
Two Second-class Merits weren’t unexpected, but four Third-class Merits?
It seemed the security at the underground arena must have included wanted criminals or those with significant criminal records, otherwise there wouldn’t have been the additional four Third-class Merits.
“It’s perfect to transfer three Third-class Merits to Zhao Jiayi; with these two Second-class Merits, I can learn four Combat Skills in one go.”
Lin Qing contemplated to himself.
With the Free Body series, he only needed three more Combat Skills to complete the learning.
With one more Combat Skill left, what should he choose?
