Abalone, sea cucumber, and Emperor crab, along with several other hearty dishes. Not only are the ingredients extravagant, but the portions are huge. Only superpower users and martial artists with big appetites can eat so much; ordinary people would be full for seven or eight days.

Though both are special handling offices, the place Liu Shuangshuang was at before was just like a regular police station. The treatment here is worlds apart, a vast difference.

But it’s not surprising; it’s much safer at a regular special handling office, with rare exposure to danger. However, Special Handling Office No.1 is different. As Tang Feng said, this is a high-death-risk position.

Every day, they face the most dangerous battlefields. It’s not an exaggeration to say their lives are on the line daily; no one knows if they’ll survive a mission.

Moreover, not everyone enjoys the perks of Special Handling Office No.1. For example, logistics personnel don’t receive such benefits; technical staff get less too. It’s the combat personnel like Liu Shuangshuang who really receive good treatment.

Liu Shuangshuang and Tang Feng were eating when Tang Feng’s pager went off. This pager is specially issued by Special Handling Office No.1, everyone has one, thumb-sized, worn on the wrist like a bracelet.

The pager has only one function: call dialogue and location tracking. Developed by Lv Jian, it ignores any remote location or signal blocking, ensuring communication is always possible, and no wearer will ever lose contact.

Each pager is custom-made for individuals, containing personal identification information, unusable by others. Liu Shuangshuang is newly employed; Lv Jian is working overtime to make her pager.

Over there, Tang Feng tapped his pager, and a unique password appeared before him. After checking, Tang Feng stashed the pager away, spread his hands to Liu Shuangshuang: "Lunch is off; we have a mission."

Liu Shuangshuang put down her chopsticks, stood up, and followed Tang Feng, who moved swiftly, leading Liu Shuangshuang straight to the underground garage.

"Earlier, someone reported finding a dozen corpses at a landfill in the east part of the city, suspicious deaths, unlikely caused by humans. Suspected to be the crime of an intelligent life form.

Originally, the site investigation was to be handled by Team One, but the neighboring city just had two more instances of suspected intelligent life form crimes. Zhu Zhe and Zhu Yufei have taken their teams there, so now it’s up to Team Two to investigate this site."

As they talked, Tang Feng and Liu Shuangshuang quickly reached the entrance of the underground garage. Tang Feng didn’t go in but shouted at the entrance: "Chi Feng, it’s mission time! Hurry up!"

With Tang Feng’s shout, a customized, flamboyantly painted off-road vehicle shot out from the underground garage, screeched to a halt in front of Tang Feng and Liu Shuangshuang.

A deep male voice emanated from the car body: "Another mission already? I just got a little sleep... Whoa, where’s this beauty from? Is she our new partner?"

Tang Feng slapped the car hood: "Only you would notice beauties; you’ve learned all the bad habits from Cai Xinyan. Hang out with her less; she teaches you nothing but nonsense.

Shuangshuang, let me introduce: this is our mission partner, Chi Feng, an automotive-type intelligent life form. Chi Feng, meet our new partner, Liu Shuangshuang."

"Hello, beautiful! I’m Chi Feng, nice to meet you." A wheel raised up from Chi Feng, nodding towards Pei Shuangshuang, which was attached to a mechanical arm that extended and retracted it.

Liu Shuangshuang didn’t expect their travel tool to be an intelligent life form; she’d never ridden in one before.

Liu Shuangshuang felt curious inside but maintained a cold, indifferent look outwardly, her words remaining brief: "Hello."

Chi Feng’s car door automatically opened, revealing a space unlike a typical car, resembling a small lounge with two rows of sofas and a small coffee table, making it look very comfortable.

Chi Feng’s voice spoke again: "Get in, beautiful, watch your head."

Liu Shuangshuang and Tang Feng entered the vehicle. As Liu Shuangshuang sat down, the seat automatically adjusted to a comfortable angle, and the seatbelt fastened automatically.

The car body started smoothly without an engine noise; the Mercedes was on the road, needing no driving from Tang Feng due to its intelligent life form nature.

After departing, a hidden compartment opened at the car’s rear, revealing a small refrigerator. Its door opened automatically, and a mechanical arm emerged alongside it, fetching two beverages.

One bottle was casually placed in front of Tang Feng, and another was gently set before Liu Shuangshuang, the cap already open as Chi Feng’s accommodating voice sounded again.

"It’s hot, have a drink to cool down. We have some time on the road ahead; would you like to listen to music, beautiful? I have soothing or lively options, including DJ and ancient style."

Liu Shuangshuang took a sip of her drink, indifferent to the music, but not a fan of noise, so she said: "Thank you for the drink. How about an ancient style piece?"

Upon her words, a calming guzheng melody played, Tang Feng sitting beside her couldn’t help but voice his discontent.

"I say, Chi Feng, after partnering with me for so long, I’ve never seen you being so thoughtful to me. This preferential treatment is too clear. Are you still a good buddy, a good partner?"

"Why would a brute like you need pampering? I’m building a good relationship with the new partner, understand the importance."

"Important my ass. You’ve picked up bad habits from Cai Xinyan, can’t walk straight when seeing a beauty. I’m telling you... Ayy, could you announce your turns ahead of time?"

"We’re here; please get off. Beautiful, watch your step. A friendly reminder: the smell outside is unpleasant, you may want to put on a mask in advance."

With Chi Feng’s words, the car door opened, releasing a complex, pungent rotting odor, overwhelming and nauseating.

Liu Shuangshuang and Tang Feng disembarked together. Despite the smell, Tang Feng’s expression remained unchanged, looking at Liu Shuangshuang, whose expression didn’t alter, her face still cold.

"It’s your first time at a crime scene; if the smell makes you feel sick, wear a mask. Your previous department likely saw few corpses; if you’re not ready, you don’t have to look, take your time to adjust."

Liu Shuangshuang knew Tang Feng was looking out for her; the smell indeed made her uncomfortable, but not intolerable.

"Thank you, but there’s no need. Better to get used to it quickly, as the job demands it." Liu Shuangshuang didn’t want special treatment, accepting what the field demands.

Tang Feng was willing to care for Liu Shuangshuang, yet her lack of fuss made him pleased: "Since it’s your first site visit, watch me and learn how we investigate, familiarize yourself with the process first."
