He was once the silent sword of the country, but now he is a pawn about to be erased on the chessboard of capital.
Chen Mo, a former "Blade" special forces soldier, joined Tianqi Technology after being discharged from the army. He thought that the workplace was a new battlefield, but he didn't know that there was no smoke here, only more deadly rules. For exposing the shady story, he was framed by his superiors and was suspended for investigation.
A suspension order is both the end and the starting point. Chen Mo turned around and dived into the shadows, changing from prey to hunter. He discovered that the suppression against him was just the tip of the iceberg. New energy giant Tianqi Technology has long fallen prey to capital tycoon Zhou Zhengxiong. A well-planned equity hunt, a "perfect" project trap that is enough to collapse Apocalypse, is slowly closing the net.
He single-handedly, Scout-style, rips through the disguise. Anonymous evidence, secret recordings, fund tracking... He is like a dull knife, cutting into the enemy's most vulnerable joints. The opponent's counterattack was far beyond imagination: they hired murderers, silenced internal witnesses, and even a crazy armed attack on the Municipal Public Security Bureau!
The smoke rises again. Only then did Chen Mo realize that what he was facing was far from a corrupt executive, but an intricate dark network codenamed "Earl". The final trump card is an encrypted USB flash drive called "The Last Gift" that can destroy everything.
There are no reinforcements, only discipline and instinct engraved in the bones. From the struggle between the grids, to the fight in the capital chess game, to the life and death showdown with roaring gunfire. This is a one-man war.
When the rules fail, the sharp blade comes out of its sheath, silent but deadly.
