Chapter 8 Identity

[This character's exclusive training system is the "Social Superstar System". ]

[The core rule of the "Social Superstar System" is: Whenever you reach a cooperative relationship with more extraordinary humans, you can get rewards through the "Exclusive Cultivation System."]

[Current progress: Training Task 1: Establish a friendly cooperative relationship with 1 psychic (regardless of the pro or con side) (Reward: 1 attribute point)]

Ji Minghuan quickly scanned the text on the panel, his eyes lit up, and as he digested the new settings in his mind, he thought: "Isn't this just right?"

This mechanism was exactly what he wanted. If he couldn't rely on the clue of the "welfare home" to break through the current situation and find the clues left by his mentors, then he would have to get closer to those psychics and try to get any information about the laboratory from them - and at this stage, his actions complemented the "character development system".

It was already late, so he pressed the power button to turn on his phone.

All he ate in the welfare home was the canteen’s food. He had never ordered takeout, and he was not eligible. He opened the app and carefully selected, and finally ordered an Italian dinner - the main course was pasta, and the soup was potato soup.

After confirming that the merchant accepted the order, I glanced at the clock on the wall. It was now 8:20 in the evening.

He thought: "If there is a way to confirm the real time in the time zone where the laboratory is located, there will be a chance to determine the approximate location of the laboratory on the map through the time difference."

Unfortunately... Ji Minghuan lived a life without sunlight in the laboratory. He couldn't even see the sky, let alone rely on the sky to judge the local time. What was even more despairing was that there was no equipment like a clock in the prison room.

In the first half of the month, Ji Minghuan had asked his instructor to hang a pendulum clock on the wall of the cell, saying that this way he could know the current time and go to bed at a regular time to ensure that his work and rest schedule would not be disrupted. The reason why it was a pendulum clock instead of an ordinary clock was because Ji Minghuan felt that the cell was too quiet. If the pendulum clock could make some noise when it swung, he would not be too depressed.

It is difficult for a person not to feel depressed when staying in a vacuum-like silent environment for a long time. At this time, some noise is a great luxury for him.

Unfortunately, the tutor did not agree to his request, and he never bothered himself again after that.

If the researchers in the laboratory required him to eat three meals a day on time, he could tell whether it was morning or night by the time when the food was delivered to him. But the reality was cruel. Basically, when he woke up and opened his eyes every day, he would find an extra set of bowls and chopsticks and food in the cell.

Therefore, he could not judge whether it was morning, noon or evening by the time the experimenters fed him food.

While lying in bed waiting for the takeaway to be delivered, Ji Minghuan clasped his hands behind his head and stared at the ceiling in a daze, and suddenly thought of the accident that Gu Wenyu's mother had encountered.

Use the video software on your mobile phone to learn about the only member of the superpower organization "Rainbow Wing" whose identity is publicly disclosed.

"Sail Holly" is the only member of Rainbow Wing that has been announced to the world.

If you ask why he can be special in such an organization, it is because his supernatural powers are too exaggerated. Every time he appears, it is accompanied by an extremely grand scene. He cannot hide it even if he wants to. He only reveals his identity out of necessity.

The first time "Sail Holly" was unveiled to the world was when a meteorite from outer space was about to hit the capital of Lijing.

At that time, he relied on his special power "Liqing Boat" to intercept the meteorite in mid-air, thus saving the city from dire straits.

Ji Minghuan searched for keywords such as "meteorite" and "rainbow wing" and clicked on the video that recorded the images at that time.

A sudden sonic boom resounded through the night, dragging a beam of fire, and the meteorite tore through the sky and crashed down toward the city. The heat energy from its rapid fall turned it into a huge fireball. People stared at the meteorite that was about to fall into the city, and hoarse shouts rose and fell, drowning the entire Lijing Square.

At this moment, a huge, floating dragon boat suddenly appeared in a corner of the night sky, slowly sailing under the dark sky.

The reporter zoomed in and focused on the dragon boat, which was decorated with lanterns and clappers, and giant men in ancient robes rowed the boats back and forth. The oars made a rustling sound in the air, and the rich blood-red color of the lanterns fell like a shadow covering the sky and the sun.

As the oars stirred the air, the castanets attached to the surface of the dragon boat opened and closed and crackled. The whirring sound of the swaying lanterns, the sound of the giants paddling the oars, the cheerful and rhythmic beat of the castanets, a series of chaotic sounds mixed together naturally, converging into a majestic piece of music that resounded over the capital and spread in all directions.

After that, it seemed that because the scene was too intense, the filming equipment lost the signal due to electromagnetic interference: there was only a jumping black and white snowflake noise in the video, and a hoarse noise was heard from time to time.

No matter what, from that day on, Fan Dongqing became the first member of Rainbow Wing in the world to publicly disclose his identity and abilities, but the other eleven members are still hiding behind the scenes - perhaps only the top figures in the United Nations have the right to know their identities.

After watching the video, Ji Minghuan silently turned off his phone.

He thought: "If I want to know who killed Gu Wenyu's mother, I have to find a way to squeeze into the 'Rainbow Wing' and become one of them to have a chance, or change the route and become a top politician - the feasibility of this path is too low, so I don't need to consider it."

Out of boredom, Ji Minghuan followed his memory and found the "mask" hidden by Gu Wenyu and a long black windbreaker in the corner of the room.

In the game character setting, Gu Wenyu is an out-and-out chuunibyou. He has all the thoughts that an adolescent boy should have, but he hides them very deeply from the outside world. In fact, long before he awakened his supernatural powers, he spent several years carefully designing his own "battle suit" and mask.

But in the month after awakening his superpowers, perhaps because he was not familiar enough with the control of his superpowers, Gu Wenyu never had the opportunity to wear these things in public.

"This workmanship is really crude, I'd rather do it myself." Ji Minghuan looked at the black mask in his hand and smacked his lips. The eye sockets of the mask were blood red, and the rest was pitch black and nothing could be seen clearly. He put the mask and windbreaker back and put them at the bottom of the closet, "Keep them for now... maybe they'll be needed someday."

Before he knew it, the clock had moved to ten o'clock in the evening. After dinner, Ji Minghuan threw away the garbage bags in the room and the living room, took a shower, and lay on the bed.

Gu Qinye said that he had something to do and would not be back tonight, but he did not expect that Gu Qinye would not come home so late.

Ji Minghuan was bored, so he took the remote control to turn on the TV in the room and switched to the news channel.

The host was reporting a news story, saying that a supernatural criminal code-named "Ghost Bell" appeared in Lijing City, and publicly announced his criminal declaration in the media, speaking of his plan in a low metallic voice transformed by a voice changer. He also said that if the people in the Supernatural Association had the guts, they would send the "Rainbow Wing" people to deal with him.

But even though he was provocative, the problem was that Hongyi didn't have the time. Hongyi was recognized as the strongest organization of superpowers in the world and would only appear in critical situations. It was impossible for them to waste time on a single criminal superpower.

Unless this criminal is strong enough to massacre a whole city by himself, he will not be considered worthy of their attention.

Ji Minghuan was watching TV and drinking hot water, and he was gradually feeling sleepy.

He felt a headache when he thought that his consciousness would return to the prison cell after waking up.

But when he thought of his mentor's promise that he would be able to see Kong Youling tomorrow, he suddenly felt a lot more at ease and fell obediently on the bed.

But just after he closed his eyes, he suddenly heard a series of slight noises coming from the first floor of his house.

Someone opened the door, and the movement was very rapid - the hearing of people with special abilities is much sharper than that of ordinary people, and Ji Minghuan heard this.

He slowly stood up from the bed, without turning on the light, but stretched out the restraints in the dark and placed them on the floor.

We have just tested the skill "Restraint Senses", and confirmed that the sensory ability generated by this skill can indeed penetrate the barrier to observe the situation on the other side, and the "floor" is naturally included in the barrier.

Then as the restraints touched the floor, slowly, the restraints replaced Ji Minghuan's own senses, and his hearing and vision penetrated the wooden floor like water and fell downwards.

Then he had a clear view of the scene on the first floor of his home.

In the darkness, a man in a blue and green metallic uniform was sitting against the wall. He took off his helmet, revealing a pale face, and then put the helmet on the ground and raised his hand to cover the deep groove on his neck. Blood flowed down like a curtain, slightly staining his shoulder armor red.

Ji Minghuan quietly observed the man's face through the senses of the restraints, then raised his eyebrows with interest.

"So it's you..." he thought.

There is no doubt that the young man in front of him is Gu Qinye, otherwise it cannot explain why he has the key to the house.

The key at this moment lies in the metal uniform he is wearing and the helmet on the ground.

These are exactly the same as the appearance of a certain character that Ji Minghuan saw on TV today.

And the code name of that alien...

——It’s called “Blue Arc”.

That was the alien with the ability to control lightning that Ji Minghuan saw on TV during the day.
