Du Lei was a typical tomboy.
She had dark skin and a tough face.
Wearing a camouflage vest, with what was likely a binding garment underneath, coupled with all those muscles, she looked exactly like a man.
Chen Feng was even embarrassed.
This woman’s muscles were more defined than his own.
After they introduced themselves, Xu Lang immediately called Du Lei and Chen Feng into his office to give them their next deployment.
The promotional video and the 'luring the snake out of its hole' strategy would be executed simultaneously.
For the promotional video, the Municipal Bureau had already decided to have Du Lei cooperate with Chen Feng for the filming—one a professional actor, the other a professional Special Police Team member.
Before the official filming, Chen Feng would definitely need to undergo some simple training.
In this regard, Du Lei was an expert.
As for their spare time?
Du Lei would temporarily disguise herself as Chen Feng’s girlfriend.
For the next few days, they would go out, eat, and live together.
As soon as the killer working for Mike Martin showed up, Du Lei could execute the arrest order.
After Xu Lang finished his deployment, Chen Feng and Du Lei almost simultaneously said, “I don’t agree.”
After speaking, the two exchanged glances.
Xu Lang knew there would be resistance.
He wasn't in a hurry, calmly picked up his water cup, took a sip of goji berry water, and then looked at Chen Feng: “Chen Feng, why don’t you agree?”
“Does that even need to be asked?”
Chen Feng pointed at Du Lei and said seriously, “She can play my younger sister, my older sister, or even my second aunt, but she absolutely cannot play my girlfriend.”
Xu Lang frowned: “Why not?”
Chen Feng blinked: “Does that even need to be asked? Isn’t it obvious?”
Xu Lang: “I don’t understand, what’s obvious?”
Chen Feng: “…”
Holy cow!
Was this old criminal investigator playing dumb or was he genuinely dumb?
He was now a new king with a huge fan base, a minor celebrity, right? Could he really find a girlfriend like this?
She was a complete rough man.
What kind of joke was this?
If people found out, wouldn't they think his sexual orientation was problematic?
Xu Lang suddenly realized, “Oh, you mean the looks, right?”
Chen Feng nodded without hesitation.
Xu Lang chuckled, then looked at Du Lei: “Our Little Du’s looks are definitely the prettiest in the Special Police Team. I like this kind of look—resolute and strong.”
Hearing these words, Du Lei stood ramrod straight.
Her eyes were resolute.
Her lips were tightly pressed.
It was as if she had received an award.
Chen Feng was drenched in sweat.
Everyone has different aesthetics; those with different paths do not conspire together.
“Xu Team, anyway, I won’t let her play my girlfriend. And it’s even less possible for us to eat and live together. I have my personal privacy, okay?”
Du Lei also nodded: “Xu Team, I also don’t agree to play his girlfriend.”
Xu Lang looked at her puzzled: “Why not you?”
Du Lei said bluntly: “I’ve never had a boyfriend. So I don’t want to ruin the image of my future boyfriend, and I certainly don’t want an actor to be my boyfriend, not even pretending.”
Chen Feng: “…”
Xu Lang was speechless.
He looked at the two of them, and finally said helplessly: “Alright then. Then Little Du will…”
“She can play my second aunt.”
Chen Feng casually interjected.
Xu Lang almost fell to the ground.
Your second aunt?
You want a freshly graduated girl to play your second aunt?
Are you being polite?
Before he could even speak, Du Lei said: “I can play his mother.”
“Hey? You’re going too far now.”
Chen Feng’s face darkened.
Du Lei, however, didn’t care, she turned her head and softly snorted.
Xu Lang blinked.
These two must have incompatible horoscopes, right?
They were at loggerheads the moment they met?
The upcoming task was going to be a bit of a headache.
“Alright, then you two will play siblings.”
Xu Lang didn’t want to waste any more time, he slammed his hand on the table: “It’s siblings, no arguments. Little Du just graduated and has never appeared publicly. So no one outside knows her identity.”
“The Municipal Bureau has set the time for filming the promotional video.”
“You two will go to the Municipal Bureau to film the promotional video within the designated time, and your other time will be at your own discretion.”
“Little Du must provide 24-hour close protection for Chen Feng.”
“Therefore, you two will live together for a short period.”
“Once the killer’s whereabouts are discovered, Little Du will report to me and protect Chen Feng. Take action as appropriate.”
“It’s settled.”
Chen Feng sighed deeply, shaking his head helplessly: “Xu Team, actually, I really don’t need protection. If the killer comes, I’ll just inform you, won’t I?”
“Chen Feng, no arguments. This is also the Municipal Bureau’s protection for you, don’t be ungrateful. Unless… you also have some secret that can’t see the light of day?”
Xu Lang stared at Chen Feng.
His gaze also became playful.
Chen Feng quickly waved his hand: “Alright, siblings it is. Xu Team, I am a model of police-civilian cooperation. If you say that, I’ll have an opinion.”
“Heh heh, that’s more like it.”
Xu Lang finally smiled, then looked at the two of them seriously: “Alright, I hope our cooperation is successful.”
Chen Feng: “…”
Du Lei: “…”
Xu Lang’s face darkened: “Du Lei.”
Du Lei finally nodded solemnly: “Xu Team, I guarantee the completion of the mission.”
After speaking, she strode over to Chen Feng, extending her hand: “Chen Feng, please guide me.”
Chen Feng lazily reached out: “Alright, little sister. Go change your clothes later, and it’s best to cover all your muscles. Otherwise, no one will believe you’re my sister; they’ll think you’re my fitness trainer.”
Du Lei’s eyebrow twitched.
She suddenly squeezed Chen Feng’s hand with force.
Good heavens!
Chen Feng immediately felt as if his hand was clamped by an iron vice.
This woman’s grip was truly strong.
But?
Is that all?
Trying to give me a warning?
This was the first time he had encountered such a competitive woman.
Chen Feng also didn't hold back, instantly stepping into the role of a killer.
Du Lei on the opposite side was momentarily stunned.
She suddenly noticed that Chen Feng’s face was expressionless, and his eyes were terrifying.
As if he had no emotions.
Especially, a more terrifying force slowly came from his hand.
It surpassed her own.
Du Lei was inwardly shocked.
It was important to know that although she was young, with a tenacious spirit, she successfully graduated from the Special Police Academy and became the new king.
Whether in combat or firearms, she was the undisputed number one.
Her wrist strength was among the best in the Special Police Team; even men couldn't hold her.
She hadn't expected to be suppressed by Chen Feng today.
Du Lei felt the force on her hand grow stronger and stronger, the pain slowly turning into excruciating agony, bones pressing against each other, as if they were about to break.
This… how was this possible?
At this moment, Xu Lang also noticed Du Lei’s predicament and quickly came over to mediate: “Alright, are you two planning to keep holding hands like this? Chen Feng, you can’t take advantage of our young team member. You didn’t want to play boyfriend and girlfriend, so why are you still holding her hand?”
Chen Feng: “…”
Only a ghost would want to touch her hand.
Chen Feng let go.
Du Lei also finally retracted her hand, looking at her slightly bruised skin, her heart already surging with immense waves.
This young man in front of her was not simple.
