In the evening, Sun Zhidong's hospital room was packed with leaders, including Director Xu and Captain Yu from Jinling.

It was the first time he had seen so many leaders at once, and they all showed him great care.

He was flattered and felt that his head didn't hurt as much anymore.

"Comrade Sun, you've worked hard this time. Take good care of yourself in the hospital and let the doctors know if you feel uncomfortable,"

"Thank you, Director Xu, for your concern. I'm feeling much better."

"Alright, we won't disturb the patient's rest any longer."

As the only injured hero in the breakthrough of the February 8th serial murder case, Sun Zhidong's treatment was exceptional.

Meanwhile, the Jinling police also announced that they had solved a serial murder case in the city. The murderer used the guise of online acquaintanceship, flaunting wealth and so on, to approach female netizens, then, after a period of in-depth understanding, lured them to meet offline and subsequently murdered them. So far, there have been 13 victims, and the identities of all the victims are being urgently compared.

Upon the announcement of this case, a huge commotion ensued nationwide, even reaching the financial sector.

The stock of a certain publicly listed dating app company plummeted to the limit, showing how shocking the case was to the public.

Many netizens exchanged their own offline meeting experiences online, expressing gratitude for not being harmed.

While some netizens' comments were sarcastic, they also indirectly reflected public concern about meeting strangers offline.

The case even drew the attention of the Ministry, with some leaders expressing interest in it.

Li Xiang and Sun Zhidong, the key figures in cracking the case, received greetings of concern, affirming the police work of the grassroots station.

Of course, this was all in retrospect.

For the follow-up of the case, Li Xiang no longer had much to inquire; like Sun Zhidong, he only needed to wait for commendation and awards.

However, for Li Xiang, awards and commendations paled in importance compared to clearing the game dungeons.

Upon completing the task, his diamonds had accumulated to 5300, and the clearance rate of the previous level dungeon had reached 100%, signaling it was time to unlock three dungeons.

That night, when he returned to the hotel, Li Xiang eagerly took out his phone, opened the system, and entered the virtual world:

[Player Name: Li Xiang]

[Identity: Auxiliary Police at Hongqiao Police Station]

[Level: lv.5 (650/1600)]

[Strength: 11]

[Agility: 12]

[Physique: 10]

[Intelligence: 12]

[Free Attribute Points: 0]

[Skills: Stealing Skill (Master Level), Fingertip Blade (Master Level), Military and Police Combat Technique (Master Level), Maga Skill (Master Level)]

[Skill Points: 3000]

[Diamonds: 5300]

Currently, all skills have reached Master Level, but there is still a significant gap to Grandmaster Level. To upgrade an ordinary skill to Grandmaster Level requires 20000 points, while a hidden skill requires 40000 points.

As of now, skill points are still insufficient.

[Do you want to use 3000 diamonds to unlock the third level Canine Strike?]

"Unlock!"

[Ding, the third level Canine Strike, dungeon unlocked.]

[Dungeon Description: Dogs possess highly developed nervous systems, and their organs of smell, hearing, and sight are extremely well-developed, allowing them to perceive and distinguish various specific faint odors. As a trainer, your responsibility is to train a dog capable of playing an important role in investigation and police work, such as tracking, searching, alerting, distinguishing smells, capturing fugitives, and obtaining evidence.]

[Do you want to start the dungeon?]

"Start!"

As Li Xiang clicked confirm, the surrounding virtual space was again covered by some physical entities, and a group of police officers in training uniforms appeared, standing in two lines of about 20 people.

Li Xiang was among them, standing in the second row.

A slogan behind the instructor read, "Strict Training, Serve Real Combat."

This was a police dog training base.

The next second, time flowed, and the people around started moving, with dog barks sounding not far away, blending perfectly into the environment.

"Dogs have long been used for defense, gradually being used in criminal investigations in modern times, and our task is to train each good dog to become a qualified police dog. Do you have confidence?"

"Yes!"

"Haven't you eaten? Louder!"

"Yes!!!"

As Li Xiang joined the others in shouting, he looked at the task content:

[Dungeon: Canine Strike]

[Main Mission: Participate in the National Police Dog Skill Competition, and achieve a top-three placement in the competition.]

[The mission rewards will be settled based on mission completion, failing if below 60%.]

[Note: The dungeon can be opened for free only once a day.]

"In three months, the National Police Dog Skill Competition will be held. Our police dog base once held the first place in this competition. I hope you can strive to regain the lost first place this time."

The National Police Dog Skill Competition was actually held in three months, meaning he had to stay in the dungeon for three months?

Fortunately, the dungeon's time doesn't sync with reality, so he's not too worried about being trapped in the dungeon and the outside world noticing something amiss.

"Next, everyone will draw lots to decide your partners, start!"

The instructor held the tickets, handing them to the trainers to choose a number.

"The number you draw represents the dog in the corresponding kennel. From now on, they will be your closest partners, and you can give them a name..."

"8."

Li Xiang looked at the number in his hand; he chose number 8.

After the selection ended, everyone followed the instructor to the kennels, and with the arrival of the large group, the kennels suddenly became lively.

"Go, meet your partners."

As the instructor dismissed the team, Li Xiang took his number and found kennel number 8.

It was a three-to-four-month-old German Shepherd, noticeably larger than his Coal Ball.

When Li Xiang opened the iron door and entered, the little creature took a few fearful steps back, huddling in the corner watching him.

"Come here, let me pet you."

Having raised Coal Ball, Li Xiang had an affinity for puppies. Using hand gestures, he quickly coaxed it over.

"You don't have a name yet? Our competition goal is to get first place, so your name will be Champion."

And so, Li Xiang and Champion's three-month training began.

Every morning, the first thing all trainers did was clean the kennels and feed their dogs.

Next, the instructor would lecture them on professional knowledge about training police dogs, which Li Xiang half-understood.

After the lessons, came the obedience training for police dogs, where the trained dogs were made to perform actions in response to commands and gestures, forming good, stable conditioned reflexes.
