As it turned out, my choice did indeed change the timing of events. Zhu Chen acted ahead of time. The instant I picked up the child, Zhu Chen appeared at lightning speed and snatched the child from my hands. I quickly activated my shield. Jiang Kexin froze on the spot, then immediately shouted, "Zhu Chen, is that you, Zhu Chen?"

Seeing no response, Jiang Kexin glanced at my empty hands and immediately turned around to look around: "Zhu Chen, don't hurt the child, don't hurt the child."

In another burst of light, a child's hat suddenly appeared in front of us. Jiang Ke panicked: "Zhu Chen, don't hurt the child! The child is yours! She's yours, don't hurt her, she's our daughter."

Chen Hu turned to look at Jiang Kexin in disbelief, his eyes filled with desolate anger. A voice came from afar: "Don't try to fool me. I'll strangle this bastard in a minute."

Jiang Kexin knelt down on the ground with a thud and cried, "Zhu Chen, don't hurt her. She really is your child. If you don't believe me, look at her ears. Her ears look exactly like yours. Your father's ears are the same shape. You must be familiar with them."

The parking lot was eerily quiet. Chen Hu leaned against the wall, head down, saying nothing. Qianliyan shielded Kaka behind him. I looked around but didn't see Ji Lin'an. I was getting anxious and wanted to look for him, but I held back and quietly glanced around. After two and a half minutes of silence, I heard Ji Lin'an's voice through my hidden earpiece: "Su Su, I saw Zhu Chen. I just found his partner's location. He's about 50 meters away from you at the stairwell of Building 5, around your current 3 o'clock position. If I don't hit Zhu Chen, I'll try to delay his skill. Keep an eye on the shield's cooldown and protect everyone. Once Zhu Chen's skill is off cooldown, I need you to find a way to take care of the skill copyer to prevent them from regrouping."

I coughed softly in response. The shield still had a minute and a half left. I heard several gunshots not far away, followed by the sound of a child crying. Then I heard through my earpiece: "I hit Zhu Chen, Su Su, hurry."

I immediately pulled out my pistol and ran towards the location of the clone. Perhaps hearing my footsteps, I heard the sound of a wheelchair sliding down the stairs and a gun being cocked. I ducked to the doorway and glanced at the stairwell of Building 4, which was less than five meters away. I turned and ran quickly towards Building 4, up to the first floor, then to the first floor of Building 5, and quietly went down. When I reached the basement, I peeked down and saw the clone holding a phone and using the "Hearing the Wind" ability. I immediately sensed something was wrong. I had forgotten that he was carrying the abilities of several other people. Just as he suddenly turned and pointed his gun at me, I raised my gun and fired several shots at him. Before the clone was dead, he immediately switched abilities, activated a protective shield, and disappeared in front of me. I stood there stunned. When I came to my senses, I slowly approached the shield and saw that only a wheelchair and a backpack remained inside.

Just then I heard the Thousand-Mile Eye calling out: "Su Yi, Su Yi."

I ran out of the building entrance: "I'm here."

Qianliyan looked at me anxiously: "We found the child, but we didn't find Zhu Chen and Lao Ji."

I immediately sensed something was wrong and started calling out to Ji Lin'an through the earpiece: "Ji Lin'an, Ji Lin'an?"

After waiting for a while without hearing a response, I started to panic: "Clairvoyant, you stay here and guard this shield. I hit the copyist, and he should be hiding in the space to heal by now. Wait for the shield to disappear, then open your backpack and smash his computer and phone. When he comes out of the space, give him a few more shots."

Qianliyan nodded repeatedly. I opened my phone to find Ji Lin'an's location. The location of my partner from Future Island showed that Ji Lin'an's whereabouts could not be tracked. I found the location of our two phones, which was less than a kilometer away from me. The location was still moving forward. I ran to Chen Hu's car. Without paying attention to Chen Hu and Jiang Kexin, I snatched the car keys from Chen Hu's hand and drove off.

Following the location, I continued until I stopped in the middle of a park. I found a pond, and Ji Lin'an's location was in the middle of the pond. I immediately put my phone in my waterproof bag and jumped into the pond. After searching for a while, I finally found Ji Lin'an. I used all my strength to support Ji Lin'an and swim to the shore. Seeing that Ji Lin'an had multiple bullet holes in his body, I took out my phone and teleported Ji Lin'an back to Jiang Kexin's house, sending Ji Lin'an to the medical space.

At this moment, Jiang Kexin was holding her child and crying bitterly. When she saw me return, she immediately rushed to me and said, "Su Yi, please save my child, she can't move."

I frowned with some resistance, reached out and lifted the blanket covering the baby. The baby was quietly closing his eyes. I checked his breathing; he was still breathing. I picked him up, opened the blanket, and examined his body. There were no external injuries. I tried gently patting the baby, but he didn't wake up.

Jiang Kexin suddenly grabbed my hand: "Su Yi, you have to save her! Don't you have a medical space? Let her go in and see what's going on!"

I said somewhat helplessly, "Ji Lin'an is inside right now, so I can't send two people in at the same time."

Jiang Ke was anxious: "Then release Ji Lin'an first, and help me look after the child, okay?"

I irritably pulled my hand away from Jiang Kexin's: "Ji Lin'an has been shot multiple times and his life hangs in the balance. You want me to let him out? Do you know what you're saying?"

Jiang Kexin grabbed my hand again and shook it violently: "I don't care! If Ji Lin'an hadn't shot Zhu Chen, Zhu Chen wouldn't have caused my daughter to fall to the ground and fall into a coma because of the gunshot wound. You have to save her! If anything happens to my daughter, I'll kill you!"

Jiang Kexin became increasingly agitated. I looked at the almost frantic Jiang Kexin and felt extremely annoyed: "Take a good look at yourself. Your daughter's breathing is steady, her heartbeat is normal, and she has no external injuries. She's wrapped in two blankets. Even if she falls to the ground, the blankets will cushion her fall. At most, she'll just faint. She won't be injured to the point of not waking up. Right now, Ji Lin'an is in the space performing surgery and it can't be stopped. You can't just go in whenever you want. If you really want to save your daughter, shut your mouth, let go of your hands, get out of my way, and let me have some peace and quiet. If you keep shaking her, even if she's not alright, you'll shake her brain off."
