Chen Yu stood up and carefully opened the lid of the sealed box completely.
Inside the box, a small USB drive and a stack of A4-sized documents were quietly placed.
"That's it?" Lin Lele's eyes widened in surprise, her voice tinged with confusion and disappointment. "I thought it would be some rare treasure or some high-tech gadget. But it's just... a USB drive and a few documents?"
Chen Yu frowned upon seeing this. This secret box was 30 centimeters square, and this little thing only filled the bottom part to a depth of less than 5 centimeters.
Further down, it was blocked by another piece of unknown metal. The metal plate had very intricate patterns, as if it were some kind of ancient totem or code. Every line revealed a profound and mysterious aura.
The metal plate fits perfectly into the inner wall of the secret box, clearly not placed randomly, but as part of a carefully designed system.
"It seems that the design of this secret box is far more complex than we imagined," Chen Yu mused. He reached out and gently touched the patterns, feeling a cool sensation on his fingertips, while a strange thrill surged within him.
At the same time, a streak of light flashed across the metal plate, forming several large characters: Unlock and activate, force open and self-destruct.
Lin Lele also leaned closer to take a closer look, her eyes widening in surprise.
Every now and then, the large characters gradually faded away.
Chen Yu smiled wryly, "Chief, Chief, aren't you making things difficult for me?"
"What?" Lin Lele asked in confusion.
Chen Yu shook his head: "It's nothing."
These patterns were far too complex for Chen Yu to understand at all, so he once again pinned his hopes on Lin Lele: "Have you figured anything out?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Lele shook her head blankly and said, "I don't know."
Chen Yu could only sigh helplessly, realizing he had really overthought things. Lin Lele was lucky to unlock the first lock, so asking her to unlock the second lock, which seemed like an incomprehensible mystery, was asking too much of her.
Having no clue what to do, Chen Yu could only temporarily put aside his idea of unlocking the second layer of locks and turn his attention back to the small USB drive and the files.
At this point, he could only hope that the small USB drive and the files contained some crucial information.
He first picked up a stack of documents, which were individual A4 sheets of paper. Although they were called paper, their material was quite special, being both thin and tough, and judging from their texture, they seemed to be waterproof.
Peeling back the top layer of paper covered with the word "secret," the contents of the paper below were revealed to Chen Yu and Lin Lele.
It turned out to be an appointment letter.
"Sir, you've struck it rich! You've been appointed as the 'Great Xia Cold Relief Commander-in-Chief'!" Lin Lele exclaimed in surprise. "Look, it even has our chief's autograph on it! Wow, sir, you're amazing!"
Chen Yu was dumbfounded. Had he really become a "regular" one?
While Chen Yu was still reeling from the shock of this sudden appointment, Lin Lele had already eagerly begun flipping through the other documents.
"'Commander-in-Chief of the Cold Weather Relief and Disaster Relief Campaign in Meiruika'? Is this a fake?"
"Commander-in-Chief of the White Bear Kingdom's Cold Weather Relief Efforts"
"Commander-in-Chief of the Parrot Country's Cold Weather Relief Efforts"
"Commander-in-Chief of the Gallic Cold Relief Efforts"
"Commander-in-Chief of the Blue Star United Government's Cold Weather Relief Efforts"
"Uh... sir, I regret to inform you that we've been tricked!" Lin Lele spread out the documents in her hand in front of Chen Yu with a wry smile. The various "anti-cold disaster relief" titles from all over the world on the documents made her feel both amused and helpless.
Chen Yu took the documents and browsed through them one by one, his expression gradually becoming serious.
These appointment letters were not only well-made, but each one also had an official seal and signature, so they did not seem to be fake. No one would be so bored as to spend so much time and resources to forge such documents.
However, apart from the appointment letter from Da Xia, which was written entirely in Xia language, the one for "Commander-in-Chief of the Blue Star United Government's Cold Relief and Disaster Relief" was written in four languages side by side, which was acceptable. But the other letters were written in Xia Ying, Xia Xiong, and Xia Gaul side by side, which seemed a bit incongruous.
Looking at the row of appointment letters in front of him, Chen Yu fell into deep thought.
The contents of these appointment letters in front of him seemed both absurd and bizarre, but they were left to him by the chief, and the chief wouldn't joke about something like this, would he?
"Sir, stop looking! We've been tricked!" Lin Lele said angrily. "I think we shouldn't rely on others anymore. Let's just send the brothers to storm this city. I refuse to believe there's anything we can't handle!"
As Lin Lele spoke, she took out a walkie-talkie, preparing to call the "Militia Corps".
"Wait a minute," Chen Yu quickly stopped Lin Lele. "Let's check the contents of the USB drive first."
As Chen Yu spoke, he took out a special computer from the extradimensional space.
Turn on the computer and insert the USB flash drive into the USB port.
The USB drive was immediately recognized by the computer, and an encrypted window popped up on the screen, requiring the user's facial information to be identified.
Upon seeing this, Chen Yu tentatively turned on the camera and removed his mask.
The encrypted interface on the computer screen responded quickly, a soft blue light swept across Chen Yu's face, and then the words "Verifying" appeared on the screen.
A moment later, the text on the encrypted interface changed to "Verification successful," and at the same time, a virtual interface containing multiple subfolders slowly unfolded.
"This works?" Lin Lele clicked her tongue in amazement.
Chen Yu ignored Lin Lele and quickly browsed through the folder names.
He discovered that the folders were named after the various countries on Earth.
Upon seeing this, Chen Yu became suspicious again, and a strange guess inexplicably arose in his mind.
