Special Summon

After Jiang Gu Ling was brought back to the safe house by Qin Jiu, he no longer cared whether Chi Jing Xiu Yi would catch Qin Jiu's eye or be recruited into the organization.

Everything had been arranged to this point. If the FBI still couldn't seize the opportunity, they wouldn't deserve to be called the "Silver Bullet" alongside Gong Teng Xin Yi by Bei Ma De in the future—the one capable of bringing down the organization.

Upon returning to the base, Jiang Gu Ling received the warmest concern from his childhood friend. Although he trusted his friend's abilities, Zhu Fu Jing Guang still couldn't suppress his anxiety. Forced by a certain Boss to stay inside, Zhu Fu Jing Guang was like a "lonely old man" guarding an empty nest, finally waiting for his treasure to return.

He assessed Jiang Gu Ling from head to toe, then pulled him tightly into his chest. If outsiders saw this passion, they would probably think the two had been separated for years, even though they had shared a bed just last night.

"Hiro, Hiro..." Jiang Gu Ling hurriedly patted his friend's back to rescue himself from the suffocating hug. Facing Zhu Fu Jing Guang's smile, Jiang Gu Ling suddenly blushed with embarrassment. He secretly thought, Hiro is really playing foul.

Zhu Fu Jing Guang helped him carry two bags of baked pies into the dining room. While preparing dinner, he listened to Jiang Gu Ling recount everything that had happened during the day.

"Speaking of which, a certain Officer Song Tian still owes me a grand feast." Jiang Gu Ling stood behind Zhu Fu Jing Guang, inhaling the familiar scent of food. He felt hungry and secretly calculated whether he should invite Hiro to "fleece" Song Tian for a meal later.

"Is that so?" Zhu Fu Jing Guang smiled and said, "That officer didn't even treat you to dinner before letting you leave? He really isn't fulfilling his duties as a police officer."

He unhesitatingly sided with his friend, blaming Song Tian Zhen Ping—who had actually just been set up by Jiang Gu Ling. It could be said that his bias was beyond question. If that curly-haired officer were here, he would definitely want to give Zhu Fu Jing Guang a punch.

At this moment, the two who were clinging to each other completely ignored Song Tian Zhen Ping's opinion. Jiang Gu Ling happily watched Zhu Fu Jing Guang cook, leaning against the bar counter waiting to fill his empty stomach, while checking the rewards from System 123 after completing the mission to capture the leader of the kidnappers.

In addition to the promised special summon card, System 123 also gifted him a piece of the plot. The summon card was a type of prop that Jiang Gu Ling had never seen before.

[Summon Card: The teacher who taught you undercover knowledge is highly capable. Raise this person's favorability, and you will have the opportunity to summon the teacher into the real world. Note: The higher the favorability, the longer the summon lasts. 5% favorability = 1 hour of summoning, refreshes the next day.]

Jiang Gu Ling stared blankly at the note, rubbing his eyes several times because he couldn't believe his eyes. This teacher was definitely Feng Xin Zi. It turned out the other party wasn't just a string of data in the system?

"Zero?" Zhu Fu Jing Guang brought the food over. Seeing his friend in a daze, he approached in confusion.

Jiang Gu Ling snapped out of it, took the plate, and showed a strange smile: "It seems I just received something extraordinary."

He showed the summon card's information to Zhu Fu Jing Guang. As Feng Xin Zi's student, Zhu Fu Jing Guang also knew how formidable the other party was. He exclaimed: "Amazing. Could it really be the real Teacher Feng Xin Zi?"

"Perhaps it's a form of conscious clone," Jiang Gu Ling speculated, then clicked open the favorability system to see how long he could summon. As a result, a round "0" made his eyes hurt.

Zhu Fu Jing Guang burst into laughter, pushing his friend to sit on the sofa in the living room.

"No way, his favorability toward me is actually zero?" Jiang Gu Ling punched the sofa cushion in dissatisfaction, "We've interacted for so long. Even when I was busy plotting against the FBI in America, I still spared some time to listen to his lectures!"

He was absolutely sure there was a problem with System 123.

[Host, can you be reasonable? I rarely even appear in front of you.] System 123 felt aggrieved. If it were anyone else, they would definitely pull it out to use every day. But in the hands of this big boss, it was just an emotionless machine that provided missions and props. Except for crucial moments, he never remembered it.

[It's my fault, it's all my fault.] System 123 quietly accepted all the blame.

Jiang Gu Ling fell silent at the system's "spoiling." Zhu Fu Jing Guang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hiro!" Jiang Gu Ling glared at his friend reproachfully. Hiro was actually laughing at him at a time like this.

Zhu Fu Jing Guang quickly suppressed his smile, sitting up straight as if the laughter just now had come from the system. System 123 was also too lazy to argue with this couple and quietly faded away.

"The food is getting cold." Zhu Fu Jing Guang patted Jiang Gu Ling's head, handing the plate to him.

Jiang Gu Ling didn't take the plate but pulled his friend's hand away, leaning his back against the other's chest. He ate while opening the newly received plot. Zhu Fu Jing Guang also happily wrapped his arms around his waist, resting his chin on the golden hair to watch together.

It started with the title "Special Episode" with a magnified image of two familiar people.

"Is it Di Yuan's previous incident?" Seeing Song Tian Zhen Ping panting in a bomb disposal suit, Zhu Fu Jing Guang speculated.

Jiang Gu Ling quickly finished his food, wiped his mouth, and said: "But Di Yuan's death was prevented, wasn't it? Both bombers are in prison. Logically, Song Tian shouldn't encounter any trouble four years later..."

Why did the system give him this plot? Could it be that Song Tian and Di Yuan would still meet with another accident? He was worried about his ill-fated classmates.

System 123 then displayed all the previously gifted episodes. Jiang Gu Ling breathed a sigh of relief; it turned out it was just time to watch this episode. He relaxed, leaning completely against Zhu Fu Jing Guang like a warm cushion.

He reached out to squeeze the muscles on his friend's arm, thinking it would be better if they were a bit softer. While watching Officer Zuo Teng reminisce about Song Tian on the screen, Jiang Gu Ling showed a mischievous smile, his hand restlessly pinching Zhu Fu Jing Guang's thigh.

"Zero." Zhu Fu Jing Guang couldn't take it anymore, grabbing his friend's troublemaking hand. His gaze became dangerous.

Sensing danger, Jiang Gu Ling quickly withdrew his hand, shifting his hips further away, pretending to watch the screen seriously: "This guy Song Tian is actually quite handsome, isn't he? He even dares to tease the police flower. I must go tell Di Yuan."

Zhu Fu Jing Guang said nothing, only staring quietly at the back of Jiang Gu Ling's neck until the other stiffened. Then, he chuckled softly and reached out to ruffle the golden hair.

The next morning, Jiang Gu Ling brought the copied plot to watch in the training space, preparing to claim the luxurious feast Song Tian had promised. He made over a dozen consecutive calls, forcing Song Tian Zhen Ping, who was sleeping in, to bolt upright.

"You'd better have something important, or else even if you're a minor, I'll beat you until you cry," Song Tian growled into the phone.

Jiang Gu Ling calmly replied: "If Officer Song Tian wants to go back on his word, I believe the news of a police officer deceiving a minor will spread throughout the Metropolitan Police Department immediately. By the way, I have prepared a gift for you."

"Fine!" Song Tian gnashed his teeth, "If you don't eat every single bite today, don't blame me."

To fulfill his promise of "handling" An Shi Tou, Song Tian even dragged the sleepy Di Yuan Yan Er out of bed. The three agreed to meet at a high-end horse meat restaurant.

Jiang Gu Ling arrived right at lunchtime, sitting opposite his two friends. Song Tian looked at the bill with heartache: "How could you have the heart to fleece me of half a month's salary?"

"At worst, I'll treat you back using the organization's funds in the future." Jiang Gu Ling smiled, sliding the plot card toward Di Yuan, "Song Tian's matter four years later can be viewed in the training space."

Di Yuan quickly snatched the card before Song Tian could grab it. The two childhood friends began their familiar bickering, while Jiang Gu Ling leisurely enjoyed his delicious meal.

Half a month later, while sitting in Qin Jiu's car, Jiang Gu Ling received a threatening text from Song Tian, but he didn't care. Qin Jiu asked about his relationship with that officer, and Jiang Gu Ling casually replied: "He's quite interesting, very easy to anger."

Qin Jiu intended to recruit Song Tian, but Jiang Gu Ling extinguished the idea: "Don't even think about it. His sense of justice is too strong; he'd rather be blown to pieces than join us. Besides, recruiting him is no different from bringing another undercover agent into the organization."

Hearing this, Qin Jiu completely deleted Song Tian's file. He didn't want to bring more trouble into an organization already filled with "rats."

Jiang Gu Ling changed the subject: "Where is Su Ge Lan? He hasn't come home for three days."

Qin Jiu sneered: "He's at the base, facing off with a newcomer. This matter is also related to you."

When they arrived at the training ground, Jiang Gu Ling was stunned to see Zhu Fu Jing Guang facing off tensely with a familiar long-haired man. It was Chi Jing Xiu Yi. What on earth was going on?
