Cheng Hai is an ordinary, hardworking, and kind-hearted person; in other words, he doesn't quite understand social etiquette.
Such people are obviously less likable in the workplace than those smooth-talking, eloquent individuals.
Cheng Hai originally didn't care about these things at all. He lived an ordinary life, but he considered himself very happy, with a gentle and virtuous wife and a smart and lovely son. But today, the disciple he had once carefully trained and who is now his superior arrogantly told him that he had been fired.
Cheng Hai's incredulous questioning only resulted in malicious ridicule, and he finally realized that his supposedly good apprentice had always hated him.
Taking advantage of his seniority, he bossed people around and blocked his path...
Cheng Hai felt a surge of grief and indignation. Was it right to just watch his disciple make a mistake and say nothing?
Walking home, lost and disoriented, Cheng Hai's mind was in a daze. He could hardly imagine what his wife and son would look like when they found out he had lost his job. They would definitely be disappointed, such a useless husband and father...
The middle-aged man, lost in his own emotions, did not notice that fine cracks appeared in the space where he walked, the dark fissures appearing and disappearing, appearing and disappearing in an extremely eerie manner.
Hidden nearby, a Dragon Group member codenamed Dragon One, dressed indistinguishable from ordinary people, took out a communicator and said in a deep voice, "Target confirmed, preliminary diagnosis: a user of spatial abilities."
“He seems like an honest guy. Let Long Qi make contact with him. If we can recruit him without a fight, the boss will be very pleased, right?” Long Si’s voice came through the communicator.
Long Yi imagined the look of relief on the cold expression of the dragon leader, and he couldn't help but get excited, as if he had been injected with adrenaline.
As Cheng Hai walked, he found someone blocking his way. After changing direction several times without the other person moving aside, the honest middle-aged man finally realized what was happening and looked up at the young man with a warm smile: "Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"
Long Qi took out his identification and placed it in front of Cheng Hai, smiling as he said, "Hello Mr. Cheng, I am a member of the National Security Special Operations Department. There is something I would like to discuss with you."
The title "Special Operations Department of National Security" instantly terrified the honest Cheng Hai.
Seeing the pale face of the honest-looking man in front of him, Long Qi reassured him, "Mr. Cheng, don't be nervous, I mean no harm."
"Yes, yes... Can I leave a message for my wife and son first?" Mr. Cheng asked tremblingly.
"Of course, but time is tight, so please keep it brief, Mr. Cheng."
Cheng Hai, almost on the verge of tears, took out his phone. His hands trembled as he dialed the correct number several times. After three days of special training, Long Qi's ears, now infinitely sharper than before, clearly heard the gentle female voice coming from the phone: "Husband?"
"Honey... I... I have something to do today and can't go back... You have to take good care of Xiao Xu."
"Honey, what's wrong?"
"No...it's nothing. If I...anyway, you, you must be happy..."
Long Qi: "..." He clearly has the kindest face among the twenty people, so why is this person speaking with the expression and attitude of leaving a will!
This is not scientific!
Perhaps the pressure from Long Qi's resentful gaze was too much, because after Cheng Hai finished speaking vaguely, he immediately hung up the phone under his wife's urgent questioning. With tears streaming down his face, he looked at Long Qi with a desperate expression and said, "I'll go with you!"
Long Qi: "..." Damn it, he's not the villain! Why does this story feel so strange?
—Ever since they've read so many novels, the members of the Dragon Group have all become quite imaginative.
Feeling depressed, Long Qi took Cheng Hai away in a sullen mood.
Similarly, the other members of the Dragon Group also came into contact with their designated targets. To their surprise, despite being prepared for battle and even death, everything proceeded quite peacefully.
The final group of superpowered individuals numbered thirty-eight, exactly the number of those who had developed and awakened superpowers in the capital in recent days. The oldest among them was Cheng Hai, who was thirty-seven years old, while the youngest was just a junior high school student.
When Long Shisan took the middle school student away, the student's eyes lit up when he heard the name of the Special Operations Department. He excitedly asked, "I know, I know, you guys are the legendary Dragon Group, right?"
"How did you know?" Long Shisan asked, but he already had the answer in his heart.
"It was written in a novel!"
See, just as expected...
The members, who were initially indifferent to the name "Dragon Group," were almost in tears after being bombarded by so many novels. They felt that associating the Special Operations Department with superhumans made it so obvious that people would immediately guess they were from the Dragon Group, which was incredibly degrading!
It's not exactly a happy thing that this department has already gained fame throughout the country before it even existed.
Twenty members of the Dragon Group drove a car carrying thirty-eight superhumans. Basically, in one car, one member of the Dragon Group was driving, another sat in the passenger seat, and two superhumans were also in the car.
Along the way, the Dragon Group member in the co-pilot began to explain the existence of the Dragon Group and its highest code to these superhumans.
"Since the discovery of the existence of superhumans, the Dragon Group was created to prevent those with abilities from losing control of their powers and causing great harm to society. We are no different from other departments; we are all here to protect the people of this country. The difference is that we are facing superhumans with great power."
