I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

“He’s a newcomer, tends to be more meticulous,” Brother Bi said, puffing smoke and offering his lighter.

Zhou Ye chuckled and bowed his head to light his cigarette, exhaling a cloud of smoke, “Hehe, Brother Bi’s smokes are indeed stronger, an old brand.”

“I’m a person who values sentimentality the most.”

“That you are, that you are.”

The two of them joked with each other.

Zhou Ye had almost finished his cigarette and still hadn’t seen Pei Jinye’s figure. He couldn’t help but turn his head and look, “Could something have happened? It should have taken about twenty minutes, but it’s been half an hour now.”

“What trouble could he get into? He’s a monster who could take down two by himself. The newcomer has a strong ego, probably wants to make a good impression. I can believe something might happen to you,” Brother Bi said, glancing at his watch and teasing, “I heard you’ve been kidnapped before?”

Zhou Ye forced a laugh, pretending to be discontent, “Brother Bi, there’s a saying about not revealing others’ shortcomings, don’t hurt me like that. But maybe we should go check on him? He’s been delayed quite a bit.”

Brother Bi stubbed out his cigarette and looked towards the alley, musing, “Let’s wait for him another five minutes.”

It wasn’t even three minutes later when Zhou Ye was getting a bit anxious that both their communicators simultaneously received an internal team alert.

“Brother Bi, Brother Bi, I’ve got a situation here… The suspect is fleeing through the south gate, likely carrying a weapon,” Pei Jinye’s voice suddenly came through.

Brother Bi quickly responded, “Zhou Ye and I are nearby, don’t do anything reckless.”

“Roger that.”

Pei Jinye flicked off a strand of hair that wasn’t his from his sleeve, the flame burned it up cleanly.

His attribute panel glaringly showed that Wisdom·Clear Brain had been activated.

…

Ten minutes later.

Zhou Ye, with an excited face, was pressing down on the suspect, shouting, “Handcuffs, give me the handcuffs!”

Brother Bi stood three meters away, watching the drama with interest.

It was Pei Jinye, understanding as always, who handed over the handcuffs.

“Damn it, I’ll teach you to run!”

Zhou Ye slapped the young man with the pale face fiercely, who looked indignant.

“Let go of me! Do you know who my father is?”

“Oh, why don’t you tell me who your dad is? If he’s not someone important, better not say, otherwise there’s no fun in arresting you,” Zhou Ye said with a chuckle.

The young man with the pale face opened his mouth, only to receive another slap, leaving him dizzy.

As Zhou Ye dragged him up, he had a bad feeling and turned to look, “Who are you guys? I’m familiar with the Night Patrol Department in this area.”

All he got in response was another slap from Zhou Ye.

“Damn waste of breath, behave yourself!”

Zhou Ye, holding the guy’s arms, looked excitedly at Pei Jinye, “Old Pei, you really did something this time, the trip wasn’t in vain after all.”

Pei Jinye looked at the young man he ran into with a mix of pity.

It was quite a coincidence.

Sneaking back silently after dealing with his own issues, he just happened to spot this sneaky figure.

Before he could approach to frisk him, the guy turned and ran.

This just contributed too much “extra” time for Pei Jinye’s outing.

When the Night Patrol Department personnel arrived to hand over the suspect, the young man glared at Zhou Ye who was completely ignoring him while excitedly counting on his fingers, “This guy’s smuggling illegal contraband, that’s gotta be at least five or six years in prison. Brother Bi, we can’t lose out on a Second Class Merit for this, right?”

“No chance for Second Class Merit, but Third Class Merit is possible,” Brother Bi said nonchalantly.

Pei Jinye sat in the back seat writing the report for this operation.

Hearing this, Zhou Ye howled in disappointment, “Why not Second Class Merit—pah, why not! This is illegal contraband we’re talking about.”

“I know, I know. The Investigation Team’s internal reward and punishment system pertaining to contraband, according to Provision 131, depends on the quantity or weight. If there had been just one more item, you would’ve qualified for a Second Class Merit,” Brother Bi patted his shoulder, “Getting a Third Class Merit isn’t satisfying enough for you?”

Zhou Ye looked disappointed.

Noticing Pei Jinye writing the report, he leaned over to take a look. It wasn’t long before his face turned red and he quickly waved his hands, “No, no, no, you’re praising me like I’m a Heaven God. Keep it low-key, keep it low-key.”

“Low-key my ass. You better remember Jinye’s good deeds,” Brother Bi chided with a laugh.

“Of course!” Zhou Ye quickly looked at Pei Jinye with gratitude. He truly hadn’t expected Pei Jinye to show no interest in taking credit. The report heavily depicted how bravely Zhou Ye had acted.

He was almost embarrassed by the praise.

“Jinye, I’m a few years older than you; I’ll consider you my brother from now on. If anyone bullies you, just tell me. Even if I can’t handle them, there’s still Brother Bi.”

“Get lost, don’t drag me into this,” Brother Bi scolded, laughing, then turned to Pei Jinye with just a smile, not saying a word.

After the Night Patrol Department took the suspect away.

The three of them returned to base.

It was twelve twenty at noon.

Zhou Ye went back to the dorm to shower and change clothes.

Before leaving, Pei Jinye was stopped by Brother Bi.

“You’re really not resentful?”

“You’re overthinking it, Brother Bi,” Pei Jinye shook his head, “I’m different from you guys; I didn’t come here for the merits. I just want to gain some experience; next year, I’ll be reporting to university.”

“Ay, you’re just too kind. You’ll suffer in university too. Participate in whatever you can, never give in because once you give in, it might be for life,” Brother Bi sighed, seemingly speaking from experience.

“Thanks for your concern, Brother Bi,” Pei Jinye appreciated his kindness.
