ALL NOVEL Chapter 1
Chapter 1
“Clang… Clang… Wooooooo—”
A vintage green-skinned train trundled slowly along the tracks.
Amidst its journey, it emitted a continuous rumbling sound; not swift in speed, yet far from quiet.
Within the resonance of these sounds, Su Xuan was roused from his slumber.
Before his eyes lay a waiting platform teeming with pedestrians. On both sides, people filled the station, their feet surrounded by sizable packages. Pedestrians bustled back and forth, creating an incessant cacophony.
Not far away, the green-skinned train was gradually decelerating as it approached the platform.
Beside him, several police officers in uniform gazed at him.
“Su Xuan, are you really alright?”
“Yeah, if you’re not feeling well, let’s go grab a drink, my treat. Don’t put up a front! And stop dwelling on that woman, Qin Shuyi.”
“If you’re feeling down, I can give you a few days off to lift your spirits. Going out like this, what if something happens?”
“Today was your ex-girlfriend’s wedding day, and you left without a word. Isn’t that embarrassing? As long as you give the word, I’ll take off this uniform right now and back you up in a fight!”
Several officers spoke one after another, revealing their concerns.
Hearing their words, Su Xuan lifted his head, his gaze still tinged with bewilderment. Facing this abruptly altered scene, he was equally astonished.
What’s going on?
Ex-girlfriend’s wedding? He’d been a bachelor for over twenty years; where did this girlfriend come from?
Su Xuan looked at the chaotic scene around him, about to speak when a surge of jumbled memories flooded his mind. He lowered his head and fell silent, endeavoring to absorb the chaotic memories in his mind.
After a while, Su Xuan finally sorted through his thoughts.
Oh boy!
This was a parallel dimension similar to Earth—Blue Star.
The owner of this body was also named Su Xuan, and like him, was a police officer. The difference was that this Su Xuan from the alternate dimension wasn’t a bachelor; he had a girlfriend.
The Qin Shuyi mentioned by this group was the original body’s ex-girlfriend. Half a month ago, they broke up over a dowry of 1.08 million, and before the original Su Xuan could make amends, she turned around and married a millionaire.
Because the guy could offer her 1.88 million in dowry money and even threw in a house.
Today was the day of Qin Shuyi’s marriage to that millionaire. The original Su Xuan had chosen this day to leave the city for a trip. However, while waiting for the train, he became angrier as he pondered the situation, and in the midst of his physical and mental fatigue, he suffered a heart palpitation and passed out. That happened to be just the right opportunity for Su Xuan.
Sorting through these memories, Su Xuan couldn’t help but sigh.
The original host had it pretty damn rough. As a police officer, he hadn’t died on the job but had been infuriated to death by his ex-girlfriend. Even in the afterlife, he must have been so agitated that he came charging back up.
However, Su Xuan’s thoughts shifted. From college to society, it had been a good seven or eight years. He’d believed they loved each other mutually, only to discover that right after their spat, she had cozied up to a millionaire and gotten married. She even brought people to flaunt it in front of him.
Anyone would feel miserable about this sort of situation.
“Oh my goodness, has she jumped into a money pit?”
“You can’t settle on a dowry, then discuss! Everyone discuss dowry negotiations two or three times, isn’t it? Just blurted out over a hundred thousand; does she think money just falls from the sky?”
“She snatched a sugar daddy so quickly, it’s just too much!”
…
Unable to restrain himself, Su Xuan muttered under his breath.
A few officers on the side heard and were momentarily stunned, hesitating to speak.
“Su Xuan, you wouldn’t be having second thoughts, planning to cause trouble, would you?”
“Although I said I’d take you to make a scene, it’s still better to stay calm. It’s not worth it for that woman, Qin Shuyi.”
“Of course… if you insist on going, I’ll take off this uniform right now and back you up in a fight!”
“Yeah, I’ve never liked this kind of woman who hooks up with wealthy guys so quickly. Let’s go, I’ll accompany you!”
The people chimed in one after another.
A warm feeling spread in Su Xuan’s heart as he looked at their eyes, filled with gratitude!
“Guys, thank you…”
“However, let’s forget about causing a scene. I’m a decent person; there’s no need to jeopardize my future for this woman.”
“But, I won’t keep Qin Shuyi in my heart from now on! This trip, I’ll skip it!”
As he spoke, Su Xuan directly took out the train ticket from his pocket and tore it in half.
He wasn’t the original owner, so he didn’t have any feelings for Qin Shuyi. He figured that instead of going on a trip, he could use this time to do something productive.
However, he was deeply grateful for the staunch support of his brothers.
Regardless of anything else, they were all in police uniforms. If they really went with him to make a scene, they might get into serious trouble, or worse…
They might end up serving a few days in jail with him…
But they didn’t hesitate at all, and that camaraderie appeared even more invaluable.
Truth be told, Su Xuan was still feeling indignant deep down. That was a leftover sentiment from the original owner—a step back, and the more he thought, the more he seethed!
What kind of nonsense did Qin Shuyi, that treacherous woman, pull?
**[Ding! Criminal System activated! System binding successful!]**
**[Congratulations, host, on receiving the Novice Gift Pack. You have acquired an item: One Directional Criminal Search!]**
Just at that moment, a mechanical voice suddenly echoed in Su Xuan’s ears.
He froze, quickly looking around, only to find that aside from his brothers, there was no one else nearby.
What was that sound just now?
A system?
Wait… could this be his cheat?
Thinking up to here, Su Xuan was momentarily stunned, then a surge of ecstasy washed over him!
As a fan of novels, Su Xuan was quite the expert at maneuvering through online fiction. How could he not understand what a system was?
Quickly closing his eyes and feeling around, he indeed sensed something deep within his consciousness connecting with him. Su Xuan was instantly overjoyed!
Though he didn’t know what benefits this system would bring him, Su Xuan believed that since it was his cheat, it definitely wouldn’t harm him.
With this in mind, Su Xuan quickly asked within his thoughts.
“What is the One Directional Criminal Search?”
This Novice Gift Pack seemed a bit strange. Shouldn’t he be drawing prizes? Why did this appear for him?
**[The One Directional Criminal Search refers to a criminal investigation focused on a specific individual. As long as the person is locked in, you can find out if they’ve committed any crimes.]**
**[However, the host’s One Directional Search is limited to one use.]**
Hearing this, Su Xuan was taken aback.
The next moment, he felt as though a star map had appeared in his mind. It was covered in dense clusters of light dots, each dot representing someone the original owner knew…
Before Su Xuan could fully grasp it, the names of a few people in front of him started to flicker.
Upon a closer look, it was the ones the original owner had interacted with recently. Among them was the original owner’s ex-girlfriend, Qin Shuyi, and the wealthy guy she hooked up with.
Hey!
Whether he’s guilty or not, let’s search and find out!
Even if it’s for the original owner’s sake, he had to check on this wealthy guy!
Without a second thought, Su Xuan directly spoke up: “Lock onto Gao Qi! One Directional Criminal Search, use it!”
**[Ding, the host has used the One Directional Criminal Search once. Searching for individual: Gao Qi.]**
**[Confirmed, Gao Qi is a high-level criminal, and his committed crimes…]**
