Chapter 38: Attack Me?

‘There’s a woman at home?’
‘This doesn’t seem like something particularly noteworthy.’
‘My home should naturally have Yayun as my wife, and even if Yayun left, there’s still Bai Shuang.’
Lin Yi said gently, “Yun Ling, I’m engaged to Yayun, so she should naturally be at home.”
The company people didn’t know about his wife leaving, and there was no need for him to publicize it.

“No, someone knocked out several employees from our company just to ask for your address. I only just found out about this. She now knows where you live and has already gone to your house. She might even be there already; you must be careful!”

Lin Yi’s face immediately tensed upon hearing this.
‘Someone went to the company specifically to get my address, coming to settle scores with me? I shouldn’t have offended anyone, right?’
‘Could it… be related to Yayun?’
‘No, I can’t go back home.’
‘What if it’s some deranged killer or sadist? I’d be walking right into a trap.’

This kind of news appearing online wasn’t a rare occurrence; women often infiltrated the homes of single men, then violently assaulted them.
What exactly happened was rarely described in detail by the news, but most of the assaulted men often lost the ability to live a normal life.

“Has something happened?”
The muscular woman stood beside Lin Yi.
“If nothing’s wrong, hurry home.”

She needed to quickly start a search of the entire complex.
From now on, no one other than security personnel could freely move within the complex; otherwise, they would be treated as suspects in the recent attacks on residents.
“Captain Li, it seems something has happened at my house, and I need to call the police now.”
Captain Li’s name tag hung on the muscular woman’s chest.
“What happened?”
“It seems someone has infiltrated my house, and it’s very dangerous to go back now.”
“What?… Alright, don’t call the police yet. I’ll go with you to check. If someone really has infiltrated, I’ll help you deal with it.”

Captain Li said with a frown.
She didn’t want incidents to occur one after another in the complex.
One person infiltrating the complex and knocking out a few residents was already a big enough deal.

If another person infiltrated a resident’s home, would she still want to be this security captain?
She absolutely couldn’t call the police and publicize these matters.

“Good.”
Lin Yi nodded.
He still had considerable faith in Captain Li’s combat power.

With such a robust physique, perhaps only Li Huayu’s physical capabilities could compare to hers.
The woman before him was capable of deadlifting 1600 kilograms, and this might not even be her full strength.
Furthermore, the description of the security captain hadn’t been updated in two years.

She might have progressed even further now, becoming even more exaggerated.
Having her by his side would at least be more reassuring.
“Please lead the way.”
Captain Li forced out a smile uglier than a cry, appearing politely.

Lin Yi went to the elevator and pressed the button for the thirteenth floor.
Captain Li followed him into the spacious elevator, which instantly felt narrow.
Lin Yi could even smell a dangerous scent in the elevator.

It was different from his wife Yayun, different from Bai Shuang, and even different from his ex-girlfriend and all the women he had encountered so far.
It was an almost beast-like aura, filled with an intense sense of danger.

Lin Yi observed Captain Li in the elevator’s reflective surface.
The more he looked at her exaggeratedly terrifying muscles, the more absurd it seemed.
‘This woman, she’s not a product of the Nine Dragons pulling a coffin, is she?’
‘Group bulking drugs…’
If she punched him, he would probably die on the spot.
Fortunately, this damned female imp system hadn’t given him any terrible quests involving this woman, or he would be dead immediately.
[Big brother called me? ]
“Shut up!”
[Okay then ]

Arriving at his doorstep, Lin Yi entered the password, and it unexpectedly lagged for a moment before the door smoothly opened.
“It seems the lock was tampered with,” Captain Li suddenly stated.
“Is that so?”
Lin Yi observed, but didn’t see any obvious signs of damage.
“Some experts can open locks completely without damaging the lock mechanism, almost no different from using a key, leaving extremely subtle traces that you ordinary men can’t observe. Only special women like me, whose eyes possess special abilities, can observe these minute differences.”

Lin Yi felt some confusion in his heart.
‘Eyes again.’

Before, Li Huayu’s medical license also came with a pair of special eyes, and now Captain Li also had them.
‘In this world, how many pairs of special eyes are there?’
“From now on, you stay by the door. This is a stun baton. If an accident occurs immediately, you can escape.”

Captain Li carefully instructed, handing the stun baton to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi took the stun baton.
‘Holy crap, it’s heavy! This is several times heavier than a normal stun baton.’
‘What’s the voltage inside? Is it really not afraid of electrocuting people on the spot?’

Lin Yi was surprised.

Then Captain Li walked steadily into the house.
She looked around the rooms, observing.
‘Something’s wrong.’
‘This room, why are there cameras everywhere? And recording equipment?’
Captain Li immediately became alert.
‘The man behind me… is not simple!’
‘Could it be that he’s planning to attack me!?’
