Chapter 55 The transmigrator revealed false inner thoughts and slandered me, so I...

With the arrival of the second Heavenly Book, the plan to transfer Chu Feng away from Si Qi, which had not yet been proposed, was completely shelved.

Chu Feng remained Si Qi's teammate. The two trained together, went on missions together, and even went home together during their breaks, inseparable every day.

Those unaware of the situation simply see that the two are close friends and have no objection. However, those in the know, seeing Si Qi and Chu Feng together, will show a maternal smile, seemingly pleased with the interaction.

It's quite interesting to watch young people who secretly like each other fall in love.

Chu Feng "didn't know" that Si Qi liked him, and Si Qi "didn't know" that Chu Feng knew he liked him. The two tacitly interacted under the guise of being good friends, pretending to be indifferent even though they liked each other terribly.

This day marked the day the serial bomber committed his first crime, according to the first book in the book.

Si Qi and Chu Feng teleported to the center of the comic convention, their eyes scanning the bustling crowd.

"Did you figure it out?" Chu Feng asked.

With the cheat device he got from the amusement park hanging around his neck, Si Qi looked around but couldn't spot any superhumans. He shook his head and said, "The culprit shouldn't be at the scene."

"Let's find the whereabouts of [illegible] first."

The prophecy foretold that an explosion would occur at the venue today, affecting thousands of exhibitors and staff. Furthermore, following this initial incident, the perpetrators allegedly laid a series of traps, resulting in the deaths of countless civilians and government officials who came to the rescue, causing extremely negative consequences.

They must resolve the trouble and apprehend the murderer before he makes his first move.

In the past, the authorities would try their best to handle matters that could be resolved on their own, and wouldn't burden Si Qi, a minor, with everything. Only urgent issues that couldn't be dealt with in time would be entrusted to Si Qi.

Si Qi: "Since the murderer is not here, the explosion may have been caused by a bomb or a supernatural item with a similar effect."

“Spatial compression can also create an effect similar to an explosion. It can store power in an object, and when the power surrounding it disappears, the compressed space inside will be released instantly.” Chu Feng frowned: “In that case, there would be too many targets to screen.”

Si Qi: "There must be a medium involved; we can investigate them one by one."

They toured the booths at the convention one by one from the entrance. There were many places selling items, some booths giving away free materials, and some activity areas where you could win prizes by participating in games.

The content included ranged from anime and games to novels, much of which Si Qi and Chu Feng were unfamiliar with, leaving them unsure where to begin.

So I could only pretend to be interested in everything and not miss a single place.

Half an hour later, they entered a place with standees of two handsome anime characters at the entrance.

Every single tourist browsing inside was a woman.

Many girls were surprised to see the two young men, Si Qi and Chu Feng, suddenly appear, and then became excited.

Chu Feng, who was responsible for protecting Si Qi and keeping a close watch on his surroundings, looked surprised and suspicious: What's wrong with this group of people? Why are they reacting so strongly? What do they want to do?

Chu Feng, worried that these people might harm Si Qi, glanced around. Si Qi lowered his head, looking at the portraits on the table in front of him. There were many characters in the portraits, but the most numerous were two men, one obedient and the other handsome.

The well-behaved one had gentle, harmless eyes, like a carefree little white rabbit. The handsome one was taller, with strong features, and his sharp gaze was like that of a big gray wolf.

In the photos, they are mostly seen posing side-by-side, with different scenes, but when they are together, their eyes and actions are always focused on each other.

They look like... a couple?

Si Qi, already a seasoned veteran, quickly realized what kind of things were displayed here. He looked up and, sure enough, saw a swarm of intense, predatory gazes. Many girls were looking at him with excitement, as if they had found a kindred spirit they had never met.

"Look, don't they look like XX and YY?"

"Yes, they look alike, and their height is similar too!"

"Could it be cosplay?"

"No way, their clothes and style aren't traditional at all."

"That means we're kindred spirits!"

"They might be a couple."

Someone holding a fan with a picture of the couple approached and said to Chu Feng, "You came together?"

Chu Feng looked completely bewildered, thinking to himself, "What else could it be?"

"yes."

He always felt there was something strange about this group of people; they spoke very cautiously. The girl grew even more agitated, her eyes burning with a intensity that seemed capable of devouring Chu Feng: "So, you two... cough, do you really like these?"

The people who came to the comic convention were all anime lovers. Chu Feng walked back and forth for a long time and saw only such people. So, he nodded, pretending to be a tourist, "Yes."

The girl let out an uncontrollable "ah ah" sound, her cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes sparkled: "So you two are... you know?"

that?

Chu Feng was bewildered.

Which one?

The little girl put it more clearly: "Are you and him a couple?"

Chu Feng was startled, wondering how he had discovered this. He glanced at Si Qi instinctively, feeling somewhat flustered.

"Don't talk nonsense..."

"Hehe, don't hide it, I can tell," the girl winked at Chu Feng. "If you didn't like him, you wouldn't have stayed by his side the whole time, and your eyes were always following him."

That look, those actions—the concern was practically written all over her face. Would ordinary friends act like that? Don't underestimate a fujoshi's (female fan of male-male romance) perceptive radar!

Chu Feng's scalp tingled. She didn't dare look at Si Qi standing behind her, and in a fit of exasperation, she lowered her voice and said, "I didn't..."

“Okay, okay, you didn’t,” the little girl nodded readily, her tone very tolerant.

I don't even know if this person has already entered the BL (Boys' Love) section and is looking at things related to BL, so why is he still so shy and afraid to admit his sexual orientation?

"Just tell me if you like him or not?" the girl raised an eyebrow.

Chu Feng's eyes widened in shock, as if asking: How did you know!

The girl laughed even harder. She hadn't expected him to be a gay man she had a crush on. No wonder he was being so secretive.

"Go for it!" the girl encouraged. "What could be harder than coming out here?"

Chu Feng felt bewildered and aggrieved.

He cheated on me? How did he cheat? He doesn't even have a proper partner yet.

Chu Feng, who was new to the field of homosexuality, had not yet had time to fill in the gaps in her knowledge and wanted to speak out for herself, who had been wronged.

Many onlookers watched him with great interest. Just as Chu Feng was about to argue, Si Qi finished searching the area and, after confirming there were no problems, pulled the still bewildered Chu Feng away, not wanting to attract too much attention.

"Ah, they've held hands!"

The girls behind them exclaimed excitedly, "It's so sweet!"

The way everyone was looking at Chu Feng wasn't criticism of the cheating scumbag. Chu Feng vaguely realized something and said to Si Qi, "Are they...?"

Si Qi nodded: "This is the BL (Boys' Love) exhibition area."

Chu Feng: "BL?"

The guy who's been straight for over a decade has absolutely no idea what this word means.

"It's about boys and boys..." Si Qi's cheeks flushed slightly: "...dating."

Chu Feng felt a chill run down his spine. Recalling the conversation just now, he finally understood the situation and was too embarrassed to say anything.

"I...I don't know, and I even talked nonsense with people..."

"It's alright," Si Qi said, feigning nonchalance. "We're upright and have nothing to fear."

Chu Feng's expression was strange.

Yeah?

Si Qi doesn't seem to be that "straight" either.

However, Si Qi himself doesn't know that he likes him. He still thinks he's straight and that it's normal for him to say such things.

Thinking of this, Chu Feng became restless.

Although he enjoyed being good friends with Si Qi, he didn't want Si Qi to really only see him as a friend.

Chu Feng composed himself and said casually, "That sounds quite interesting."

Si Qi turned his head in surprise: "You like these?"

Chu Feng nodded vigorously: "Yes, I'm very interested!"

Si Qi paused for a moment, then smiled: "Everyone has their own interests and hobbies."

Si Qi expressed his respect and understanding.

Chu Feng deliberately asked, "You don't mind, do you?"

Si Qi shook his head repeatedly: "Of course not."

"But guys who like BL (Boys' Love) might also like the same sex," Chu Feng hinted.

“Sexual orientation is a matter of personal freedom,” Si Qi said.

"Many people say this, but when they find that the people around them are like that, they still feel quite uncomfortable."

"I won't!" Si Qi immediately assured him.

Chu Feng intensified his efforts: "Then let me tell you, I like boys, do you mind?"

Si Qi was surprised, then nodded very seriously: "I don't mind."

Chu Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said to Si Qi, "That's great. I was really afraid that you would avoid me and never want to talk to me again after you found out."

Si Qi said shyly, "No, I wouldn't bear to be separated from you."

Chu Feng was hit by the direct question. He clutched his chest and almost couldn't hold back his heart fluttering for a moment. After calming down, he said, "Then can I still contact you in the future? I'm afraid that after you know my orientation, you will think that I am harassing you when I touch you, and you will think that I am disgusting."

Si Qi's eyes widened: "How could that be! I would never think that way, go ahead and touch it."

"Can I talk to you about relationship problems in the future? You know, these kinds of topics are not convenient to talk about with others, and I don't have anyone to confide in about this..."

Si Qi nodded quickly: "No problem, just tell me, I'll listen."

"Xiao Qi, you're so kind."

Si Qi smiled and said, "We're good friends."

"Just friends?" Chu Feng stammered, "Actually, there's someone I really like..."

Si Qi paused in his steps, and only when Chu Feng turned to look at him did he come to his senses and hurriedly say, "Ah... I see..."

Chu Feng pretended not to notice anything and nodded, saying, "Yes, he's very handsome and has a good personality."

Si Qi: "Oh...I see...But I don't think anyone could be better than you, right?"

There was inevitably a hint of sourness in his tone.

Chu Feng wanted to laugh, but pretended to be serious and said, "Yes! He's very good! Especially good!"

Si Qi stopped talking, his lips were taut and his expression turned cold. He headed straight for the next exhibition area.

Chu Feng watched Si Qi's retreating figure with a joyful heart, but unfortunately, now was not the time to talk about these things, so she jogged over after Si Qi.

Not long after, a child with a cartoon balloon tied to his hand walked past them. Both of their eyes were fixed on the balloon in mid-air. Chu Feng walked over and asked, "This balloon is pretty. Where did you buy it?"

The child's father replied, "There's a booth up ahead that's giving them out for free."

Chu Feng looked in the direction the other person was pointing, and sure enough, he saw a machine automatically making balloons. Tourists could choose their favorite patterns and have the machine inflate them.

The two exchanged a glance and walked towards the machine.

A faint fluctuation of supernatural power emanated from the machine. As the supernatural power took effect, the energy contained within was transported through the air into the balloons, and then carried by the visitors to various areas of the exhibition hall.

This must be the □□ mentioned in the prophecy.

Si Qi placed his palm on the instrument, determined the nature of the superpower based on the fluctuations, and nodded to Chu Feng: "It's this one."

Chu Feng: "How should we handle this?"

It will probably take some effort to catch up with the balloons one by one now.

Moreover, the perpetrator must have been observing the situation, and once they noticed someone targeting the balloon, they would most likely have detonated it.

“Let’s go directly to the criminal,” Si Qi said. “Once we take away his superpower, the power here will automatically disappear.”

Even if it doesn't disappear, the superpower that controls this force will be transferred to Si Qi's hands, and it's the same if Si Qi cancels it.

Chu Feng: "Then I'll check the surveillance footage to see who put this machine down."

"It's okay, I can watch it directly."

After this period of hard work, Si Qi has mastered no fewer than a hundred different superpowers. One of them is called "Thousand-Mile Eyes," which can track the whereabouts of people or objects. When combined with "Time Reversal," it can reveal who is using their superpower on the balloon machine and directly lock onto the target.

Chu Feng exclaimed, "Your ability truly lives up to its reputation as the strongest superpower."

The more superpowers one possesses, the more omnipotent one becomes.

Si Qi quickly saw the murderer's face, and after activating his clairvoyance, he immediately locked onto the person's location.

He grabbed Chu Feng's wrist. "Let's go."

The two quickly moved to a secluded corner where no one could see them, and then teleported to a cheap rental house dozens of miles away.

Chu Feng, who had already developed a perfect working relationship with Si Qi, intervened the next second as the scene changed, immobilizing the people present.

The feet, which had been hovering in mid-air after the teleportation and hadn't yet fallen, finally touched the ground firmly.

Si Qi walked up to the prisoner, pressed his palm down on the prisoner's head, and activated his superpower.

Chu Feng: "How is it?"

"Alright," Si Qi withdrew his hand, his tone relaxed, "It wasn't difficult at all."

The man whose superpowers had been forcibly taken away was first shocked, then his eyes widened, and he roared in anguish, "What did you do to me?!"

A guy who dreams of becoming a superior person by relying on his superpowers loses his greatest asset overnight. It's like a lottery winner suddenly going bankrupt or a newly enthroned emperor being demoted to a commoner. He's so angry that he's about to go crazy.

The guy who did this outrageous thing was completely unfazed, chatting and laughing with the people next to him.

Si Qi and Chu Feng complained, "I hear that so many times every day..."

Chu Feng comforted him, "Next time I'll gag them too."

Honestly, they're making so much noise they're waking Si Qi up.

The prisoner's eyes widened in horror; these two who had suddenly appeared were even more ruthless than him!

Si Qi waved his hand in mid-air, presumably doing something remotely, and said to Chu Feng, "I have eliminated the superpowers on the machine, you can go back now."

The prisoner was furious: "You found me by following the machine?!"

Chu Feng glanced at him sideways: "Otherwise what? Since you've broken the law and committed a crime, you should be prepared to get caught."

If it weren't for him and Si Qi who came to arrest them today, the dead would fill the entire room.

After saying that, he glanced at the other people around him who had also been captured, thinking to himself that these must be the criminal accomplices mentioned in the prophecy.

These prophesied individuals are utterly wicked, and in order to overthrow the existing order, they will use their supernatural abilities to carry out terrorist attacks.

The series of bombings was their first calling card to the world, announcing their existence with blood and fire.

Chu Feng frowned, tied the group of people up like dumplings, and together with Si Qi, each of them carried two to the base that was specifically for detaining criminals involved in supernatural events.

A terrorist attack that should have caused tens of thousands of deaths and injuries and had a huge impact on the whole country was thus brought to an abrupt end.

After hearing the description of the situation, the assistant who was helping the two write the task report couldn't help but say, "Luckily we had you guys, otherwise this task would have taken so much more effort."

They dared not cancel the comic convention, fearing that the perpetrators would target other locations, making them even more difficult to track down.

Technological means are insufficient to detect murder weapons imbued with supernatural abilities, and even if they are found, it is difficult to instantly pinpoint the perpetrator and prevent them from activating their supernatural abilities before they become aware of it.

It can only be said that his plundering ability truly lives up to its reputation as the strongest superpower designated by the Heavenly Book; it's unimaginable what Si Qi cannot solve.

Chu Feng smiled smugly after hearing this and ruffled Si Qi's hair with his palm, "Of course, Xiao Qi is the best."

Si Qi, embarrassed by being rubbed, covered his head and said, "I didn't do anything..."

Chu Feng withdrew his hand, thinking with satisfaction that Si Qi's hair felt exactly as he had imagined, exceptionally soft.

I wonder if his face is as bouncy and smooth as I imagined... I wish I could pinch it.

Chu Feng felt a little tempted.

But... wouldn't this be considered sexual harassment?

Chu Feng was worried that she had gone too far and that Si Qi would be angry, so when she got home, she secretly went to her room to read some mysterious books.

Upon seeing the newly added content, Chu Feng grinned and chuckled incessantly.

[I get to go on a mission with Chu Feng again today!]

I was a little surprised and also a little happy when Chu Feng said he liked the same sex.

[Hmm? Why am I happy?]

[It's because he told me such important things, he trusts me a lot, and I'm so happy.]

What?! He said he has someone he likes!!

He even praised that person...

How could he do this...?

I don't want to talk to him anymore.

[No, why am I angry? Shouldn't I be happy for him?]

"...But I can't be happy. I even wish he didn't exist. I'm such a bad person; I don't deserve to be his friend."

I really envy the person he likes.

【if……】

The book didn't continue writing "what if," but just the word "what if" made Chu Feng overjoyed. He rolled around on the bed, laughing like a fool.

He threw aside the pillow in his arms, jumped off the bed, ran to Si Qi's room next door, and knocked on the door.

Bang bang bang.

Si Qi poked his head out from inside: "What's wrong?"

"I'm so happy!" Chu Feng announced loudly, "I couldn't help but want to see you when I was so happy!"

Si Qi couldn't help but chuckle and stepped aside to let Chu Feng in: "What happy thing happened?"

"Hey... I can't tell you yet." Chu Feng felt like a million good things were happening to him, so happy he was about to fly.

Si Qi's eyes crinkled into a smile; Chu Feng, in love, was truly content.

"By the way, the mission was a complete success, and the base gave us a bonus, which was also sent to us along with this month's salary."

Si Qi, who had only a three-digit savings account after living for over ten years, has suddenly become a small-time millionaire. Not knowing how to spend the money, he discussed it with Chu Feng and decided to use the salary to buy some gifts for Chu's uncles and aunts, as well as everyone at the base.

Without exception, everyone who received the gift was overjoyed, for it was a gift personally given to them by the Son of the World! They carried the gift with them as a talisman, and would show it off whenever they encountered Si Qi to express their affection.

Of course, there are cases where good intentions are treated well, and there are cases where good intentions are not appreciated.

When Si Qi was buying gifts, he didn't forget to buy gifts for Lin Dong and the others as well. When he suggested using his teleportation ability to send the gifts over, Chu Feng said, "They haven't been going to school for a while."

Si Qi, who had already heard Xiu Xiu mention this before, looked completely bewildered: "Huh? How could this be?"

Chu Feng shrugged: "When I contacted my classmates, they complained to me that their attitude was particularly bad. They were yelling things like 'What's the use of studying?' and 'I don't have the energy to waste time here,' and they were very arrogant. The teachers felt that studying was their only way out, so they went to the welfare home to ask them to come back. But they felt that the teachers were delaying their great endeavors and drove the teachers away while cursing."

Si Qi was stunned: "They weren't like this before..."

“Qi Ji didn’t show up before,” Chu Feng said. “He probably saw that Qi Ji was rich and thought he might as well not study and become her follower.”

Si Qi said dejectedly, "I didn't know about this."

Ever since Si Qi stood up Qi Ji and the others at the amusement park, these people have been hurling insults at him on the phone, claiming that their injuries and misfortunes at the amusement park were all because of Si Qi.

Si Qi "didn't understand" how the injuries of this group of people could be blamed on him, and sadly sought answers from Chu Feng.

Chu Feng then stirred things up, saying that these people didn't respect Si Qi and didn't treat him as a friend, urging Si Qi to ignore them. Then, he used excuses like exercise and work to fill all of Si Qi's free time, leaving him no energy to care about these people, and contact between the two sides gradually decreased.

“If you were to appear before them now, they might try to get you to work for Qi Ji,” Chu Feng said. “But where would you find the time to work for Qi Ji? You don’t even have time to study.”

Si Qi nodded in deep agreement: "Yes."

“If you really want to send a gift, just mail it, but they might not receive it.” Chu Feng skillfully sowed discord among Si Qi’s eyes: “They moved, changed their address, and didn’t even leave you an address. If it were me, I definitely wouldn’t do that. I wouldn’t dare let you not be able to find me; I would definitely report my whereabouts to you every day.”

"There's no need for this," Si Qi couldn't hide his disappointment and chuckled, "Do you think I'm your housekeeper?"

"Such a good thing!" Chu Feng said exaggeratedly, "Then when will you become my housekeeper?"

The base leader who was passing by looked on with a sour expression and kept glancing at them.

“Why should I be your housekeeper? It’s annoying to be so controlling. But when I have money, I can buy a house near yours, so it’ll be convenient for us to go out together,” Si Qi said. “I can even reserve a room for you to stay in.”

So you're so reluctant to part with me~~ Chu Feng thought smugly, "Then we can buy a house together, right? Look how expensive houses are these days, I can't afford one!"

Si Qi asked in surprise, "You're still short of money?"

Chu Feng nodded vigorously: "Of course! You've worked hard on your own, how can I rely on my family? I'll definitely work hard with you hand in hand."

Si Qi: "But you're living at home now, why do you need to buy your own house?"

“Living at home is nothing compared to living with you.”

The leader couldn't stand it anymore. Wasn't Chu Feng taking advantage of Si Qi's lack of understanding and deliberately deceiving him? He shouted from a distance, "Alright, it's not even close to being a done deal, and you're already trying to enter the inner sanctum."

"No," Chu Feng said with a grin, nudging Si Qi with his elbow. "Little Qi is happy to do it, right, Little Qi?"

Si Qi nodded obediently, "Yes."

lead:"……"

Ever since the second book of heaven revealed Si Qi's feelings for Chu Feng, Chu Feng has become a bit arrogant and spoiled. He has lost all the respect and admiration he should have for the Son of the World, and all that's left is the swagger of a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

Instead of talking about buying a house together, you might as well just say "we'll live together".

Unfortunately, Si Qi was too innocent to understand and let Chu Feng flirt with him.

Upon hearing Si Qi's reply, Chu Feng pinched Si Qi's cheeks with both hands, grinning from ear to ear: "You just listen to me like that, whatever I say goes."

Si Qi said very sincerely, "Because I also want to be with you forever."

Chu Feng laughed even more wildly, while the leader clutched his chest, feeling as if his own plump, fresh cabbage had grown legs and was willingly nudging towards the pig's nose.

She didn't want to listen to the two of them being so affectionate, so she silently turned and left.

Chu Feng, that brat, was still excitedly saying behind her, "Okay, okay, then it's a deal! But where should we choose for our new house... our new home?"

"You haven't saved enough money yet," Si Qi reminded him.

"It doesn't matter how much money we have, what matters is having a home together, even if it's small and only has one bedroom!"

"Aren't you worried about it being crowded?"

"If it's too crowded, just hug me to sleep."

"Oh...that's true."

"Bullshit!" the leader muttered under his breath. "That Chu Feng, he's shameless!"

The leader left, grumbling and cursing.

She thought that what she had just seen was the limit of Chu Feng's shamelessness, but when she turned around and checked on Si Qi's learning progress at the training ground, she saw through the glass door that Chu Feng had pinned Si Qi to the ground, ignoring Si Qi's struggles, and laughingly teasing Si Qi until Si Qi blushed and became furious, yelling at him, "Get out!"

The leader's heart pounded wildly, and he couldn't help but drag Chu Feng into his office to criticize him: "Show some respect to Xiao Qi! How can you be so handsy and take advantage of others like this?"

Chu Feng blinked innocently: "But Xiao Qi likes it."

Even if Xiao Qi likes you, you can't do this!

“I mean, Xiao Qi likes me this way,” Chu Feng corrected.

"Nonsense!" the leader shouted. "This is the first time I've ever heard Xiao Qi tell someone to get lost!"

"Spare the rod and spoil the child," Chu Feng corrected. "He loves being bullied by me."

The boss rolled his eyes: "You're just taking advantage of Xiao Qi's good temper."

Chu Feng protested his innocence: "It was clearly said in the Heavenly Book!"

"That book wasn't exactly serious either!" the leader muttered. "Was that book really written according to Xiao Qi's true feelings? I think it was written according to yours!"

Chu Feng chuckled and shamelessly said, "Isn't Xiao Qi's sentiment the same as mine? We're on the same wavelength."

"Get out!" The boss angrily kicked Chu Feng out. Chu Feng covered his head and ran out the door. Hearing the door slam shut behind him, he tried to play the victim to Si Qi, who was standing outside looking at him with a worried expression: "The boss said I bullied you."

Si Qi, who had just been teased and made angry by Chu Feng, couldn't help but worry about Chu Feng: "How could this happen? I'm not angry."

"The boss also told me to keep my distance from you," Chu Feng said with a mournful face. "He said we're not dating, so how can I touch you inappropriately?"

Si Qi blushed: "You really do..." like to get handsy.

Chu Feng: "Then I'll listen to my boss and only touch my boyfriend from now on."

The blush on Si Qi's face instantly faded, turning her face deathly pale as she looked at him with a face full of sorrow.

Chu Feng: "What do you think?"

Si Qi hurriedly lowered his head: "What do I think?"

Chu Feng: "My boyfriend."

Si Qi dodged Chu Feng's attempt to bend down and observe his expression: "I don't know."

After being dodged, Chu Feng leaned forward to look at Si Qi again: "How could you not know?"

Si Qisheng sullenly said, "If you want to do this with your boyfriend, then go ahead and do it. Don't... don't ask me!"

Chu Feng looked pitiful: "Ah, but I was just asking for your opinion, wasn't I?"

"I don't want to give you advice."

"If you don't give it to me, how can I continue to touch my boyfriend inappropriately?"

"What do I have to do with you—" Si Qi gritted his teeth, wanting to ask Chu Feng why he was forcing him like this, then paused, his eyes widening: "What did you say?"

Chu Feng, still grinning, nudged Si Qi with his big head and said, "Hey, do you want to be my boyfriend?"

Si Qi's eyelashes trembled: "You like me?"

"Of course I like you," Chu Feng said, hugging Si Qi and resting her head on Si Qi's shoulder. "What about you? Do you like me? Will you be sad if you know I'm with someone else?"

Si Qi took a deep breath, "I, I will..."

“I knew it,” Chu Feng chuckled, “So you like me.”

"..."

"So, do you want to date me?" Chu Feng said coquettishly, "You can't not like me, you have to take responsibility for me."

Si Qi: "How can I take responsibility for you? I haven't done anything to you."

On the contrary, Chu Feng has taken advantage of him quite a bit these past few days.

Chu Feng's eyes darted around, and he looked up, bringing his face, which was resting on Si Qi's shoulder, to Si Qi's lips. Then he quickly covered the spot where he had been "kissed" and shouted loudly, "Look, you kissed my face!"

Si Qi, caught off guard by the sudden attack, was speechless.

Chu Feng: "You can't take advantage of me and then be a scumbag."

"...You clearly took advantage of me with your face," Si Qi retorted.

"Then you also took advantage of my hand with your waist in the training room just now!" Chu Feng said matter-of-factly, "You took advantage of it many times."

Si Qi couldn't help but grit his teeth, "Chu Feng, have you no shame?"

"No, I don't want you. You don't even like my face. What use am I to you?" Chu Feng looked at Si Qi pitifully with puppy eyes. "You really don't want me? I'm easy to take care of."

Her little expression was so aggrieved that Si Qi couldn't help but chuckle: "Okay, okay, I want it, I want it, how could I bear to not want it?"

Chu Feng burst into laughter through her tears, took Si Qi's hand, and said, "I knew it."

The two were being all lovey-dovey when they ran into a member of the base. Chu Feng made a point of greeting the person, revealing his hand holding Si Qi's, and asked in surprise, "How did you know that Xiao Qi and I were together?"

Base member: "…………" I don't know?

"Oh, actually we're dating~~"

"Let me formally introduce you. This is Si Qi, my boyfriend."

The base members looked like they were in a toothache: "..." This kid is really annoying!

It's really hard to know what Si Qi sees in Chu Feng. A group of uncles and aunts passing by sighed as they watched Si Qi holding hands with Chu Feng and smiling sweetly.

Unfortunately, no matter what they thought, Si Qi and Chu Feng still successfully established their relationship.

Meanwhile, the official arrangements regarding the superhumans are progressing smoothly with the young couple's cooperation.

No more incidents like the serial bombings occurred because the precautions were sufficient. The social order, which should have become turbulent, remained as calm as before the spiritual restoration, thanks to the efforts of all parties.

In stark contrast to the peaceful facade, the state apparatus was operating at breakneck speed amidst turbulent undercurrents. Tens of thousands of superhuman soldiers were mobilized in a thunderous crackdown across the country. Organizations of superhumans that should have been rampant were destroyed overnight, and inhumane research institutions were forcibly shut down before they were even established. Any superhumans who attempted to cause trouble were instantly subdued and had their supernatural abilities drained by Si Qi, who appeared in a flash. Even the various supernatural events that accompanied the resurgence of spiritual energy were turned into episodes of "Approaching Science" under the control of the public opinion department.

Everything is moving in a positive direction. Without rampant organizations of people with supernatural abilities causing trouble, and in this harmonious and stable environment, many civilian individuals with supernatural abilities still hold the country in high esteem. When contacted by officials, they did not try to escape or evade investigation; instead, they cooperated fully by registering their information and remembering the regulations prohibiting the misuse of their abilities.

Even those few extraordinary individuals who, after acquiring superpowers, considered themselves the chosen ones and harbored resentment, dared not risk being captured and having their powers taken away by Si Qi after witnessing his abilities firsthand through a screen. Instead, they began to conceal their talents and live quiet, honest lives.

The official team thus successfully navigated the most difficult initial adjustment period and welcomed the resurgence of spiritual energy in the best possible condition.

That day, the members of Si Qi's special task force gathered in their dormitory during their rare vacation, eating, drinking, and chatting.

"I've heard that there have been many incidents involving superpowers abroad. Many superhumans have used their powers to commit arson, murder, and looting. They've even formed a superhuman alliance and use their superpowers at will on the streets."

"Yes, this kind of discussion is all over the trending topics on foreign websites, but there's not much news about it in China yet."

"It's not like there's absolutely no news. Many people can still see the videos on foreign websites, and those overseas students who rushed back to China to escape the crisis also brought the news back."

"I think it won't be long before people in China find out about this, since things are in such a mess abroad."

"I really don't know what those leaders in foreign countries are doing, just watching the superhumans run rampant."

"Those people who are used to speculation and profiteering, why would they go through the trouble of opposing the superpowered? I heard that they are already investing in the superpowered organization, supporting the superpowered people they like to rise to power, and preparing to seize the opportunity to become the leaders of the new era."

"In the end, aren't ordinary people the ones who suffer the most?"

"So, no matter what era it is, the most unfortunate people during times of war are always the people at the bottom of society."

"Haha, we should be glad we live in China, because China is not like this."

Everyone couldn't help but smile as they talked about this, raising their beers in a proud toast, and then saying to Si Qi and the other person, "You two have your drinks."

"Pfft," one of the team members hurriedly swallowed his beer and burst out laughing: "If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have even remembered that Captain Si and Captain Chu, who are so dominant outside, are actually not adults yet!"

“I’ll be an adult in another month,” Chu Feng said, eager to try the alcohol. “I can have a couple of sips.”

"Then you can drink this," the team member said, picking out a bottle of orange-flavored alcoholic beverage and handing it to Chu Feng.

Chu Feng didn't pick and choose, opened it and took a bite. Soon, the pungent taste in his throat rushed to his head, and he couldn't get used to it for a long time.

"Cough cough, this tastes awful."

"Look at you, so full of yourself," everyone laughed at him, then steered the conversation back on track: "Speaking of which, once the news is fully released, we'll be able to step into the spotlight too, right?"

"Yes, I have to hide every time I use my powers, afraid of being seen by passersby and cameras. It's exhausting."

"Come on, don't take your good fortune for granted." The other team members mocked, "When others deal with superhumans, they're lucky if they don't get hurt. You have the leisure to worry about this."

"Exactly, don't think that just because there's a squad backing you up, you can stop thinking about other things while you're on a mission."

"Hehe, then tell me, how can I be in trouble if Captain Si is here?" The team member said smugly. "Not long ago, Captain Si also mastered a healing ability that allows him to regenerate severed limbs. As long as I have a breath left, I won't die."

"I'm really impressed," the surrounding teammates couldn't help but punch him, saying they were disgusted, but their faces all showed a similar sense of pride.

With Si Qi around, they felt a great sense of security.

"Come on, cheers!" Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them against Si Qi's, then laughed heartily, "To our best Captain Si!"

"Thank you for taking care of me, Captain."

"I want to be Captain Si's teammate for life!"

It was a rare holiday, and everyone was in high spirits, laughing and drinking. They took advantage of the alcohol to say things they wouldn't normally be comfortable saying, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.

As the moon hung high in the sky and darkness fell completely, they consciously cleared away the empty bowls, plates, and bottles from the table to ensure they wouldn't be affected by alcohol the next day, and left arm in arm.

Si Qi was the last to leave because Chu Feng, who was a lightweight, could get drunk even from alcoholic beverages. For the rest of the time, he was holding the bottle, his face flushed, his eyes glazed over, listening to everyone talk without saying a word.

He was quite well-behaved when drunk, not making a fuss at all.

Si Qi pulled the person onto his shoulder and helped him up, saying softly, "Let's go home."

Chu Feng leaned against Si Qi, humming softly.

Si Qi didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"

Chu Feng rubbed his face against Si Qi's neck, muttering unhappily, "...I'm your best teammate."

Everyone was vying for him, saying they wanted to be with Si Qi for life.

How awful, how awful!

"What teammate?" Si Qi chuckled, supporting Chu Feng's back to keep him from falling, and leaned down to kiss Chu Feng's forehead: "You are my boyfriend."

"What?" Chu Feng was completely bewildered. After a long pause, he sighed and said, "Then I'm so lucky!"

The heartfelt question left Si Qi momentarily speechless.

Chu Feng, however, was too drunk to notice this. He clung to Si Qi, his arms wrapped tightly around him like a koala finding its favorite tree, snuggling against him and murmuring repeatedly, "I like you, I like you so much, Xiao Qi..."

"Mmm, mmm..." Si Qi's ears burned. He was also puzzled that even though he had spent so many lifetimes with this person, every time they met again in the small world, he was still moved by his casual actions and his simple words.

He liked Chu Feng like this, and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him. He couldn't help but lower his head and place a light kiss on his lover's lips, which smelled of wine.
