Sorry, Our Captain Is a True All-Rounder

The name Lin Jingjing was already famous, but she became even more so after her outburst against Alderick that morning.

Previously, those in aristocratic circles had scorned her, thinking she was just someone incapable of making any real waves.

So what if she had the King’s protection? Could the King protect her for her entire life?

But today, Lin Jingjing had shown them all her true strength.

She could beat someone with 2S Spiritual Power into a recovery pod, and she hadn’t even used her full strength.

Not only that, but she could also dig up every single dirty deed they had ever committed.

Evidence, photos, videos, transaction records—she had found it all.

‘She’s just absurdly powerful.’

“Lin Jingjing, you need to rein in that temper of yours. You can’t afford to provoke those people,” Captain Li advised earnestly as they left the Cabinet Building together.

Lin Jingjing shrugged, looking nonchalant. “It’s fine. If they don’t like it, they can just suck it up.”

“Who says I can’t afford to provoke them? They’re the ones who’d better not provoke me,” Lin Jingjing said.

“Or I might just expose all their dirty little secrets to the public.”

Captain Li thought for a moment. ‘She really does have the ability to do that.’

He sighed. He never would have thought that the girl who used to get bullied and always needed someone to protect her had now grown so powerful.

‘Her growth has been incredibly fast.’

“How is Mo Xuan now?” Captain Li asked.

Lin Jingjing shook her head. “He’s still in the recovery pod.”

Mo Xuan was seriously injured this time, and Alderick’s attitude had infuriated even them, the most good-tempered of people.

There was a reason Lin Jingjing had been so ruthless. If Alderick could beat Mo Xuan into a recovery pod, then he deserved a trip in there himself.

Besides, he was the one who had asked for a one-on-one fight. If he lost, he could only blame his own lack of skill.

“It’s that serious?” Captain Li was shocked. Their meeting had lasted over four hours, which meant Mo Xuan had been in there for over four hours?

Captain Li’s expression immediately turned grim. “I was too soft on them just now.”

Hearing this, Lin Jingjing scoffed and said sarcastically, “And you were the one telling me to be merciful when I could.”

“That was because I didn’t know the full situation,” Captain Li said, rubbing his nose in embarrassment. If he had known, he never would have tried to stop her.

Beating him to death wouldn’t have been going too far.

Lin Jingjing had other things to attend to, so after a few more words with him, she left.

She stopped the remaining Army Commanders, jerking her chin up as she asked, “Are you lending me the troops or not?”

“We’ll lend them.”

The Army Commanders, who had originally been unwilling to lend their soldiers, had now learned to recognize the way the wind was blowing. Since Lin Jingjing had come to ask in person, they had to give her some face.

“How many?” Lin Jingjing asked.

“As many as you want,” Meng Shili said with a smile. Now that he knew the extent of Lin Jingjing’s strength, he could finally speak to her civilly.

“Tsk, coward,” taunted Blanwen, the Army Commander of the Fourth Corps, from the side.

“If you’ve got the guts, why don’t you go fight her?” Meng Shili replied, looking at him with a smile.

‘Fight Lin Jingjing?’

‘Yeah, no thanks.’

Once she had secured the troops, Lin Jingjing didn’t waste any more time with them and left immediately.

Upon returning to the Monster Investigation Bureau, Lin Jingjing headed straight for the medical department. Inside, she saw the three of them sitting with solemn expressions, watching Mo Xuan, who was still lying in the recovery pod.

Feng He’s eyes were red-rimmed, and fresh tear tracks stained her cheeks. It was clear she had just been crying.

While Shi Feng and Gu Kaiwen hadn’t cried, their eyes were also red, as if they were holding back tears.

“How is Mo Xuan?” Lin Jingjing asked as soon as she entered.

Upon hearing Lin Jingjing’s voice, Feng He couldn’t control her tears any longer, and they started to flow again.

She turned and threw her arms around Lin Jingjing, saying in a choked voice, “He’s still undergoing treatment. He was injured so badly, and we missed the optimal window for treatment, so his wounds will be very difficult to heal completely.”

“I don’t know when he’ll get better.”

As she spoke, tears welled up and spilled over, large drops splashing onto the floor.

When Gu Kaiwen and Shi Feng saw Lin Jingjing, they walked over and hugged her too, as if they had found their pillar of support.

“Sister Lin, Mo Xuan…”

Looking at their state, and then at Mo Xuan lying in the recovery pod, killing intent surged within Lin Jingjing’s heart.

‘I should have just killed Alderick when I had the chance.’

“He’ll be okay. Everything will be okay,” Lin Jingjing said, raising a hand to comfort them.

Lu Shaoyu stood at the doorway watching this scene, a complicated feeling welling up inside him.

Although they had only worked together for a short time, everyone felt that Director Lin was an excellent leader.

Moreover, the leaders were all exceptionally kind to others. The entire Monster Investigation Bureau was free from the “might makes right” attitude prevalent in other corps and teams.

In fact, they explicitly forbade it.

As a result, the atmosphere here was very relaxed. Not only that, but the leaders put on no airs, mingling freely with their subordinates. In their free time, the soldiers would clamor to try some of their leaders’ home cooking.

Director Lin and the others would complain, but they would still cook for them to try.

To make sure everyone ate well, they even taught many of the soldiers how to cook.

And while Vice Director Mo seemed aloof and a man of few words, he was also very good to everyone.

Watching their leaders huddled together, weeping, left a bitter taste in the mouths of Lu Shaoyu and the soldiers who had followed him.

“They’ve gone too far!”

“Exactly! Vice Director Mo was just asking to borrow some troops. If they didn’t want to, they could have just refused like the other corps!”

“Right! They’re just bullying us because we’re small!”

“Captain Lu, let’s recruit more people! We won’t stand for this kind of humiliation!”

“Yeah, we’re an independent bureau now! Let’s recruit!”

“The dorms are all empty anyway!”

The soldiers shouted, each one filled with righteous indignation, wishing they could kill Alderick themselves.

Hearing the commotion outside, the group inside quickly let go of Lin Jingjing. They wiped their tears with the backs of their hands and then walked out. “What are you all crowded here for? Is there no training today?”

“We came to see Vice Director Mo! And Captain Gu, it’s a break time, so we don’t have training,” someone shouted back.

“How is Vice Director Mo? Is he okay? When will he recover?”

“Is there anything we can do?”

Lin Jingjing stepped out and saw the corridor packed with soldiers. She smiled and said, “No, but thank you for your concern.”

“I already beat Army Commander Alderick into a recovery pod today.”

“I hit him pretty hard. He’ll probably be lying in there for a long time too.”

As soon as they heard this, everyone burst into cheers.

“Director Lin is a badass!”

“That’s the way! Beat him!”

They cheered, Director Lin had gotten revenge!

This is great!

“He probably won’t be able to keep his position as the Fifth Corps’ Army Commander either,” Lin Jingjing continued.

Hearing this made everyone even happier.

“Director Lin is so badass!”
