Chapter 22: The First 4-Star Talent

(Hydrogen peroxide can oxidize the phenolic hydroxyl groups and tertiary amine groups in heroin, causing it to deteriorate and become unusable, for example, losing its analgesic effect.)

[Ding! Destroyed drugs worth 50, received a 2-star resource reward.]

[Ding! You have acquired the freehold title to the main residence at 301 Ellandi Street, valued at $30.]

301 Ellandi Street?

Isn't this the apartment I'm renting now?

I never imagined that what I thought was just a short-term stopover would become my business.

After all, the location of the house is only slightly better than the slums, so of course we'll move there when we have more money.

Lee Ethan released Evelyn and then demanded her gun.

Give me your gun.

"what?"

In the end, Evelyn obediently handed over her sidearm to the other party. Putting aside her trust in Ethan, even if the other party wanted to kill her, she probably wouldn't have the ability to resist.

"Bang"

The bullet pierced the already dead corpse's head, and Li Yisen, amidst the policewoman's confusion, put it back in.

"We're on the same side, this kill is yours."

"ha?"

"Stop laughing, let's go over the statements. Each kill counts as a high-risk mission, which will help you finish your internship quickly."

Evelyn had figured everything out and nodded seriously.

.

The sound of helicopters echoed through the mountains. Ethan sat on a rock, having Evelyn help him bandage his wounds, while he watched the system. He was powerless to pursue the drug dealers' stronghold; he could only rely on reinforcements.

[Ding! You have obtained a three-star weapon reward: the M2 heavy machine gun.]

[M2 Heavy Machine Gun: America's longest-serving weapon, a heavy machine gun with a history of over a century, using 12.7mm ammunition, with an effective range of 2000 meters, a rate of fire of 600 rounds per minute, and already equipped with 500 rounds of ammunition.]

"M2?"

California prohibits the sale of fully automatic weapons, not to mention heavy machine guns, it doesn't even allow submachine guns or automatic rifles. Other states also prohibit automatic weapons manufactured after 86.

Unexpectedly, they directly gave him a powerful weapon. As an ordinary police officer, there is really a time when this thing is used. In addition, the nature of using this thing is extremely serious, and there is no legal way to use it.

His thoughts were quickly interrupted by the voice of the special police.

"Raise your hands."

Several special police officers who had just gotten off the plane pointed guns at the two men, and Li Yisen and his companion dutifully raised their hands.

"We are both police officers, badge numbers 49527 and 49113."

The special police commander, who was essentially a police superintendent, hurriedly reported to his superiors.

"Two local county sheriffs were found."

"Everyone, search for the enemy's whereabouts. Be extremely careful; the enemy is a desperate criminal armed with automatic weapons."

"Yes."

Evelyn felt something was off seeing the SWAT officers acting as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

"Well, we should be safe here now."

Special police commander Dennis frowned. They were on a mission, and it wouldn't do for a young policewoman to provide random information.

"Although the target may have already escaped, it cannot be confirmed that no gunman is hiding."

"It wasn't a flight; the drug dealers were shot dead by my seniors and me."

Evelyn felt her face getting hot as she said this, since she hadn't done anything wrong, yet she had received credit for it.

"What? You killed them all?"

Not only was the SWAT commander utterly shocked, but the other masked SWAT officers were also incredulous.

By what right did the patrol officers in these two areas manage to kill several vicious criminals?

Dennis took a deep breath.

Tell me more about it.

"Yes."

Shortly afterward, the special police officers who had been searching the mountain returned.

"Sir, we did find six bodies, along with a long trail of blood. I suspect they were bears, but after searching, we couldn't find any bodies."

"Following the ambulance tracks, we discovered the drug dealers' drug storage location, but it was deserted and we found nothing."

Dennis had many questions in his mind, the most important being the mixed-race policeman in front of him who used a stolen submachine gun to kill five drug dealers who were also equipped with the same weapons. Even his SWAT team members might not be able to do that. For a moment, he felt a sense of admiration for the talent.

"Ethan, are you interested in joining the SWAT team? All you need to do is complete six months of training."

Upon hearing this, Evelyn's eyes widened, and her first thought was that she was about to lose an excellent trainee instructor.

Li Yisen was also surprised that the other party had given him a chance to join the SWAT team. For an ordinary police officer, this was no less than the opportunity to become a detective. Of course, having the opportunity did not necessarily mean he could pass the test smoothly.

But being a special police officer really wasn't a good fit for him. The cases they handled were indeed very big, but he might not get one a month, let alone guarantee a high participation rate. He was far less capable than a patrol officer, let alone a detective.

In the end, to everyone's surprise, Li Yisen shook his head; they had thought he wouldn't refuse.

"Sorry, I'd rather be a detective, and I believe I have the ability to become a police officer very quickly."

Dennis ultimately didn't continue. Was he, a police inspector, really going to lower himself to arrest people again and again?

However, if someone else said he could become a detective quickly, he would think they were bragging. But this young man in front of him should have no problem getting the Medal of Courage based on this case alone.

Police officers have many kinds of medals. Not to mention the medals for outstanding service and contribution, which are all about seniority, the Medal of Courage is the highest medal for bravery. It is not only a medal, but also a way to break through the barriers of ordinary promotion speed.

Of course, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is not like some small local police agencies, where solving a major case would prompt them to promote someone to deputy superintendent.

After all, local positions cannot be shared and transferred laterally. Even if a sheriff from a small town resigns and takes a position in Los Angeles, he may not necessarily become a senior police officer.

I respect your choice.

Soon, county police officers who had driven to provide backup arrived at the scene. The elderly man leading the group was Jason Garcia, the North District Police Chief, a police inspector who was a few years away from retirement.

"Ethan Lee, you did a great job, really great."

Even the narcotics bureau's people were taken down, but being dealt with by a mere patrol officer made him look good. At least when he got to headquarters for a meeting, he would have something to brag about.

Evelyn reminded him with a hint of resentment.

"Chief, what about me?"

"Yes, yes, and Evelyn too, you did a great job, and I'm sure your father will be proud of you."

Father?

Lee Ethan didn't specifically inquire about Evelyn's information, since she would say what she wanted to say about personal matters, but now it's clear that she is indeed someone of extraordinary status.

Soon, Li Yisen got to experience being taken to the hospital by helicopter. This was the treatment of a hero. There were a bunch of colleagues on the ground talking about it, some even envious and jealous.

When he left the mountainous area, the system also showed that the case was officially closed, which clearly meant that he had given up the pursuit of the fleeing drug traffickers.

[Ding! A drug trafficking smuggling hideout has been wiped out. Participation rate: 80%. Received a 4-star reward.]

[Rewards are being extracted from the deceased. No 4-star level has been found. Multiple rewards are being extracted for synthesis.]

[Ding! Received a 4-star reward: Constitution-type talent: Superior Vision]

[Superior Vision 4-Star: Sees clearly at near, medium, and long distances simultaneously, possessing superior night vision compared to the average person. Strength +1, Endurance +1, Agility +1, Spirit +1]

[Ethan Lee]

【Strength: 16】

[Endurance: 14]

[Agility: 16]

【Spirit: 19】

In the blink of an eye, the view from the sky became much clearer, even though it was getting dark.
