The SID shield is a consistently useful invention, and such a thorn in the baddies' sides that they need to get it deactivated (by tricking Lin Jing) as simply breaking through is not possible. I picked this one!

The energy detector is very useful in theory, but in practice, the SID doesn't trust the technology enough to make the most of it. Like when it detects Zhang Shi, but it's just assumed to be a malfunction.

The baton has... obvious downsides. XD
It's too hard to control, a bad feature on a weapon. I'd give it a consolation prize because it suits Guo Changcheng and because it's funny.

The tracker is a neat little thing, though I'm not sure it can be credited to Lin Jing. Tacking technology isn't new,although hiding it in jewellery is smart.

The popcorn is good for morale! Not as much as a shield protecting you from surprise attacks though.

The ring also falls into this category: No real use, more about the sentiment. I wonder how long its battery live is.

Great arguments! Agreed that the shield is the most useful one, with the most plot relevance.

I wonder what would have happened if Lin Jing had trusted the detector when it went off for Zhang Shi.

YEP! Sometimes he's just really damn GOOD at what he does. *nods*

"I'd give it a consolation prize because it suits Guo Changcheng and because it's funny."

ITA with everything else too, but especially this. :D :D
