Villain? No, I'll catch up with the protagonist after passing the civil service exam.

The piercing system beeping roared wildly in Lu Jingyan's mind.

The scarlet warning characters on my retina were flooding the screen like a runaway waterfall.

"Drip—buzz—"

The black SUV screeched to a halt at the edge of the airport runway.

"Boss! The radar readings are off the charts!"

Su Xiaoxiao clutched the overheated tactical computer tightly, her face pale as she pointed at the sky outside the car window.

"A massive high-dimensional energy vortex has appeared in the stratosphere above the border!"

Lu Jingyan suddenly pushed open the car door, his military tactical boots slamming heavily onto the asphalt road.

He raised his head, his deep black eyes fixed on the twisting and tearing sky.

The once azure morning sky was now torn open by a dark crack tens of thousands of meters long.

A gigantic single eye, formed from pure, violent energy, greedily peers down at the land through the crack.

That is the will of a higher dimension attempting to forcibly connect with Earth, and it is the ultimate source of all mutated systems and spiritual energy for cultivation!

"What the hell is this thing?"

Zhao Tiezhu charged from behind, holding a Gatling gun, his thick legs trembling unusually.

The immense pressure made the air in the entire airport incredibly thick and sticky.

The newly rescued compatriots covered their ears in terror, while the special forces soldiers raised their weapons only to find that all their firearms jammed due to the magnetic field interference.

"Just a high-dimensional wild dog that doesn't follow the rules."

Lu Jingyan sneered, his back ramrod straight as a steel knife that would never bend.

Without hesitation, he issued the final command in his mind.

"System, grant full permissions! Use all remaining 85 million righteous energy points!"

"Activate the highest defense protocol of the [Causality Weapon - Absolute Codex]!"

However, just as the system was about to run under overload conditions...

A miracle happened.

The body camera hanging around Lu Jingyan's neck, as well as the countless media cameras broadcasting the rescue live, suddenly burst into a dazzling golden light.

This is neither magic nor the true energy of a cultivator.

This is the ultimate anger and righteous spirit that surged in the hearts of 1.4 billion Chinese netizens after witnessing their compatriots being rescued!

"bite--!"

A clear and long system notification instantly drowned out the terrifying roar from the higher dimension.

The chaotic, scarlet gibberish in my mind faded away as quickly as a thick fog dissipated by sunlight.

Then the azure blue system panel reappeared, with rows of gold-plated characters appearing solemnly like a legal code.

[Detection indicates that the legal order in China is absolutely stable, and the level of justice has reached 10,000%!]

[All high-dimensional anchor points in the current dimension (system streams, cultivators, and drug lords with supernatural abilities) have been successfully contained by the host and subjected to physical legal education!]

The fundamental logic of the higher-dimensional invasion has completely collapsed; the assimilation of the otherworldly energy has failed!

The enormous single eye perched high in the sky seemed to have encountered some kind of irresistible dimensional reduction attack.

An invisible, golden net, composed of countless existing legal provisions, rose from the ground of Jinghai City No. 1 Prison!

"Awooo—!"

A mournful and unwilling scream echoed from the sky.

That immense, high-dimensional will began to collapse violently under the absolute physical crushing force of the Criminal Law, the Anti-Secession Law, and the National Security Law.

Those bizarre and fantastical spiritual energies, system codes, and supernatural radiation are like Trojan viruses locked by powerful antivirus software.

They were all ruthlessly shut out of the door of the rule of law in China!

The higher-dimensional rift has been forcibly closed.

The worldview is being restored to that of a normal, law-abiding society.

[Countdown... 3, 2, 1.]

[Repair complete.]

As the final notification sound faded, the jagged crack in the sky vanished completely.

The warm morning sun once again bathed the runway of the border airport, and the suffocating pressure in the air vanished completely.

The only sound was the fluttering of the five-star red flag in the gentle breeze.

Lu Jingyan stood quietly in place, looking up at the perfectly normal blue sky above.

There's no Dragon King with a crooked mouth, no domineering CEO, no cold weather, no king breaking down, and no sword immortals flying all over the sky.

Only a few early birds were leisurely skimming across the clouds.

He slowly raised his hand and took off the police hat on his head, which was covered with gunpowder and morning dew.

Lu Jingyan took a deep breath of the ordinary air filled with the warmth of everyday life, and his jawline, which had been tense for countless days and nights, finally relaxed completely.

His lips curled up slightly, revealing the most relaxed and genuine smile he had shown since arriving in this distorted, fused dimension.

"It turns out that even car exhaust smells good in the normal world."

Su Xiaoxiao, holding the tactical computer that had returned to normal, gasped for breath and slumped onto the hood of the SUV.

"Boss! What was that thing just now?"

"Did the system crash? Or am I hallucinating?"

Zhao Tiezhu threw the heavy Gatling gun to the ground, wiped his shiny bald head, and looked completely bewildered.

"I think I just saw a huge copy of the Criminal Law floating in the sky, and it smashed a hole in the sky."

"Have I gone crazy from memorizing too many legal education materials lately?"

Hearing his subordinates' puzzled complaints, Lu Jingyan's smile deepened.

The traces of the system, along with those extraordinary powers, are being completely erased by the self-repairing mechanism of the worldview.

Ordinary people in this world will no longer remember the astonishing scene of the high-dimensional invasion.

From now on, there will be no more systemic spiritual energy or supernatural abilities in this world.

Only daily necessities, only the constant wailing of sirens, only the impartial and selfless law.

Lu Jingyan dusted off his police uniform, turned around, opened the car door, and casually tossed his police cap onto the passenger seat.

"It's nothing, just a visual mirage caused by unusual weather conditions."

"Get in the car quickly. We can skip the provincial department's celebration party, but we can't skip breakfast."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao excitedly jumped off the hood and yanked open the back door.

"Long live the boss! I want two baskets of crab roe buns from that place in the south of the city!"

"I want three big bowls of mutton offal soup, with lots of chili and lots of scallions!"

Zhao Tiezhu also climbed into the car, his massive body pressing down on the SUV and causing it to sink heavily.

Lu Jingyan skillfully shifted gears with one hand on the steering wheel, and the vehicle started smoothly in the morning light.

"You can pay for your food by scanning a QR code. I just paid my Party dues the day before yesterday."

"Huh? Boss, you're supposed to be the richest guy in our Special Investigations Unit, how come you're even stingier than me!"

"My father is the richest man in China. I'm just a law-abiding public servant. Besides..."

Looking through the rearview mirror at the gradually receding border airport and the compatriots who had been given a new lease on life, Lu Jingyan's eyes shone with a gentle light.

"And we have to go back to the office to work overtime later."

"Those inmates ninety meters underground may not have the cheat codes anymore, but they still can't miss out on any of their sewing machine quotas for labor reform."

The SUV sped along the wide highway, with trees on both sides swaying gracefully in the morning breeze.

The carriage echoed with Su Xiaoxiao's wails and Zhao Tiezhu's honest laughter.

This is a world without demons and monsters.

If there were no fraud, there would be no thieves in the world.

At that moment, Qin Mingyue, the forensic doctor, received a call directly through the car's Bluetooth system.

"Team Leader Lu, the mutated drug lord Khun Sa, whom you asked me to dissect, has had all his scales fall off just now."

"He is now just an ordinary heavy drug addict, and all his physiological indicators are completely within the range of human beings."

Lu Jingyan gripped the steering wheel with one hand, a satisfied smile curving his lips.

"As expected."

"Now that he has turned back into a human, let's proceed with the normal legal process."

"Consider the charges of intentional homicide, armed drug trafficking, and illegal detention concurrently, and make sure the case file is thorough."

"Understood, we will not let a single poisonous insect escape." Qin Mingyue's voice carried a rare hint of relaxation before she hung up the phone.

Sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone on the earth.

Everything was so real and so beautiful.

"Boss, Gu Yanchen submitted a sentence reduction application in prison, saying he has learned embroidery." Su Xiaoxiao flipped through the terminal report.

"Let him continue embroidering. If he wants a reduced sentence, he should prove his skills by winning the provincial-level model worker award."

Lu Jingyan looked ahead, his tone calm and firm.

"As long as I am alive, I will never allow anyone to be above the law in this Beijing and on this land of China."

Su Xiaoxiao closed the file and shouted towards the rising sun outside the window:

"Understood! A world without fraud, a world without thieves!"

Zhao Tiezhu also joined in, shouting in his hoarse voice:

"The boss is right! I, Old Zhao, will be the first to object to anyone breaking the law!"
