Chapter 16



Chapter 16

Sir, I don’t understand.”

“The person who discovered the possessed person and killed him, thus protecting the lives of the citizens, was Su Meng of the Feng City police department. Do you understand?”

“…”

The supervisor’s firm voice was heard from the other end of the line.

But…

Zheng Sen and Gu Hongyu looked at each other. They felt that this decision was a little shameless.

Gu Hongyu grabbed the phone.

“Sir, may I ask why?”

“No, you may not.”

“What if I insist on asking?”

Gu Hongyu did not back down.

“Sir, the person who killed Xiao Jingtian was Xu Bai. I don’t understand why we are trying to change that. Besides, Xu Bai has a hidden…”

“Su Meng’s uncle is the deputy operations manager of our Feng City branch.”

“I…”

“Do you understand?”

Gu Hongyu opened her mouth to say something, but she did not know what to say.

“Understood.”

“Then retreat.”

“… Yes, Sir.”

The supervisor hung up.

Gu Hongyu frowned for some time, before finally snapping out of her daze. She looked at the computer screen and saw Xu Bai, who was chatting and laughing with his neighbors. He seemed to be planning to go home.

Zheng Sen took the phone back from Gu Hongyu and looked at Xu Bai on the computer screen. He sighed and said, “From a certain perspective, this is a good thing.”

Gu Hongyu raised her head and frowned at Zheng Sen.

Zheng Sen shook his head.

“At the very least, if the person who killed Xiao Jingtian is the niece of the deputy operations,manager, then the security measures taken will be better”

Even though the Federation claimed that everyone was equal, everyone knew that this was just for show.

Gu Hongyu turned to look outside the window.

“He has the potential to see this world clearly.”

“There will be a chance for that.”

Zheng Sen got into the driver’s seat and said while putting on his seatbelt, “Over the years, whether it’s due to the extraordinaires in our Federation or from the Great Desolate World, the crime rate has increased significantly. The higher-ups have also been discussing whether to make public the existence of the extraordinaires. This time, he won’t have a chance to join us, but at least he’ll be alive. As long as he’s alive, given that his physique and potential that’s close to that of an extraordinaire even without training, he’ll join us sooner or later.”

Gu Hongyu did not say anything, and closed the laptop on her lap silently.

Zheng Sen glanced at his colleague’s expression through the rearview mirror.

It was obvious that after observing Xu Bai for a day, both of them had developed a good impression of him.

However…

The decision had already been made, and there was nothing he could do about the arrangement. Helpless, he changed the gear, stepped on the accelerator, and left the vicinity of Jiuchang community.

Just as Zheng Sen and Gu Hongyu drove away, Xu Bai, who had bid farewell to his neighbors and returned to his house, noticed something and looked outside the window.

He stared at the SUV as it slowly drove away.

They left?

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows. Then, he opened the door, and walked into the room. Once inside, he brought up the game panel.

[Ding dong! Game panel opened!]

[Welcome to the ‘Game of Life’ system!]

[…]

Xu Bai went to the kitchen and poured himself a glass of cold water. He leaned back on the sofa and looked at the status panel.

“Twenty… I should be at the same level as those two agents now.”

Two levels…

Xu Bai could gauge the difference between him and those two, having seen their info panels back when they visited him in the hospital.

But…

A fifth-level Martial Apprentice did not feel like much.

Xu Bai looked down at his clenched fists and frowned.

Martial Apprentice should be the lowest realm.

However, if he leveled up further…

Xu Bai’s eyes flickered as he looked at the bottom right corner of the status panel. After he reached level 20, the ‘level up’ button was grayed out again.

[Ding!]

“Two moons in the sky?”

Xu Bai looked at the mission that had appeared and was automatically accepted. He raised his eyebrows.”What is this?”

And…

[Ding! Activating Life Skill – Alchemy!]

[Pill formula: Vitality Replenishing Pill]

[Remark: Life skill activated. You can try to refine a Vitality Replenishing Pill. After successfully refining it, you will permanently activate the alchemy skill.]

“Life skills?”

Ring, ring, ring!

While Xu Bai was reading the contents of the pill formula, the old-fashioned flip phone in his pocket rang.

Xu Bai took out his phone and looked at the caller ID.

Su Meng.

Xu Bai waved his right hand and put away the pill formula. Then, he stood up and walked over to the balcony to answer Su Meng’s call.

“Hello, Mengmeng.”

“Master.”

Su Meng seemed a little nervous on the other end of the line. She subconsciously lowered her voice, “Master, you haven’t slept yet, right?”

“Not yet. Why?” Xu Bai smiled.”

Su Meng hesitated.

After a while, she finally replied, “Brother Bai, I’m downstairs. Can you come down?”

Xu Bai was stunned.
