Cannon Fodder Counterattack System (Twenty-four)

After hearing this, what else did Shang Li not understand?

It seems that although the old man surnamed Chen did not say much on the surface, he actually never gave up on finding his "student".

It seems that during the two hours in the infirmary, Chen Jin from their timeline took the opportunity to evacuate other people from the Ability Bureau.

"What a mistake. We completely forgot to consider this aspect."

He picked up his neatly cut hair around his cheeks and said helplessly, "What a shame, I quite like this look."

"Well, I don't mind if you keep going."

Suddenly, a solemn and low voice came from above, "Do you want to turn back into Shang Li?"

“…”

Shang Li raised his head and saw Chen Jin standing in front of the second-floor window with his hands behind his back, looking down at the three people who were surrounded by guns.

"Bad news, the entire Superpower Bureau has been placed under a barrier, and there are superpowers outside who are constantly reinforcing and maintaining it," he said.

Cui Lan added the second half of the sentence in a calm tone, "Even if we can tear open the space rift, it won't heal fast enough for us to escape."

“Pah, pah, pah.”

Shang Li raised his head and faced Chen Jin, and couldn't help but applaud, "What a big fuss they made to catch the three of us."

"But there are only three of us. Is that really enough?"

"Of course it is enough."

Chen Jin glanced at No. 2, then quickly retracted his gaze and continued, "You have been secretly colluding with Cui Lan and pretending to be my student for several months. I don't care if you have such an intention, but this kind of thing is absolutely intolerable to the Supernatural Bureau!"

Having said this, the middle-aged man in his fifties slammed his hands on the window sill, making a loud noise.

Chen Jin has never let down his guard since he left his post as a student and went to work at Peiying High School.

He sent his subordinates to monitor the students' movements at all times and took the initiative to test them during a practical mission.

As expected, Shang Li didn't recognize the woman who greeted him.

Chen Jin lost track of Shang Li until he boarded the cruise ship.

Fortunately, Luo Qinglian was also with us.

Although he said everything perfectly, this member of the Supernatural Bureau who had been lurking outside for many years did not understand the internal methods of the Bureau. He was unknowingly searched while recuperating, and inadvertently exposed his memories of being with Shang Li and Cui Lan at the bottom of the sea.

Chen Jin naturally also received the information that Shang Li had faked his death.

Later, Luo Qinglian successfully went to Peiying High School to work at the suggestion of his subordinates who were sent to express condolences, and became his eyes to observe Shang Li's movements.

Similarly, after obtaining Luo Qinglian's memories, Lu Zhai also became the focus of attention.

The moment he detected the energy fluctuations and the disappearance of Shang Li, Cui Lan, and Jiang Mingyu's breath, Chen Jin immediately gave orders and led two subordinates to Lu's residence.

Finally, they found Lu Yao, who had lost consciousness and was only an empty shell, in the basement, along with the supernatural props next to him.

So time came to the present. After living in this timeline for several days and understanding the general situation here, Chen Jin waited for the two people to come to him on their own initiative.

Veins popped out on the back of his hands as he spoke word by word: "I'll give you one last chance. As long as you reveal the real Shang Li..."

Cui Lan let out a short sigh before he was halfway through his words.

"Swish."

He raised his eyelids and looked at Chen Jin with a teasing look.

Upon seeing this, Chen Jin simply shut up and refused to say anything more.

This move was like a declaration of the start of the battle. The man with the crew cut immediately raised his hands, and the black muzzles of his guns were immediately aimed at the three people in the middle.

“Bang, bang, bang!”

The next second, countless guns fired.

The flames from the exploding bullets instantly engulfed the three people. The young man's rising and falling shouts mixed with the roar of the shells. In just three seconds, they were completely suppressed and no sound was heard anymore.

“Click.”

The crew-haired man turned his palm over again, and the gunmen stopped following his command.

He watched the gray-white smoke surrounded by black steel slowly dissipate. The figures of the three people had long disappeared, leaving only the dried deep red bloodstains and countless bullet craters on the ground.

But the man with a crew cut did not let down his guard at all.

He immediately rolled over and pointed his thumb and index finger in a certain direction, making a "gun" gesture.

“Bang!”

The supernatural bullet condensed in mid-air and hit the ghost attacking from the air right between the eyebrows.

The emitted energy immediately shattered the ghostly form, and bright red data dissipated, severely blurring the crew-haired man's vision, and no matter how he moved, he couldn't erase it.

The short-haired girl who had been hiding far away activated her supernatural power.

Through some special channels, she learned that the actor's supernatural powers were exactly the same as Shang Li's.

Shang Li's ability is to distort other people's perceptions of the outside world, but her ability can perfectly restrain it and directly transmit the correct information into her companions' minds without being affected.

In this way, his supernatural powers are almost useless!

The crew-haired man regained his sight immediately, but the snow-white blade had already entered his pupils.

Cui Lan held the long knife in his hand and stabbed straight at his neck.

"bite--"

The crew-haired man's right hand quickly transformed into a pitch-black gun barrel, blocking Cui Lan's attack this time.

But most of that section of the body was cut off like tofu.

Soon, the next attack came with a whooshing sound.

“Shua——”

The crew-haired man quickly turned and dodged at the prompting of the short-haired woman. After using the huge gun to distance himself from her, he snapped his fingers and more than a dozen small red dots immediately appeared on Cui Lan's body.

The sniper rifle hidden far away locks on the target and fires bullets.

Each bullet carries a huge amount of supernatural energy, which is enough to take away half the life of even an A-class defensive supernatural user if they are touched.

Plus it comes with a tracking lock, so you don’t have to worry about missing the target.

But what the crew-haired man didn't expect was that the same number of pixelated men suddenly appeared out of nowhere, each holding a silver shield in his hand, and rushed straight towards the bullets.

“Bang!!”

When the two came into contact, an explosion was heard, and the energy waves from the explosion caused the entire ground to tremble.

These bullets condensed from supernatural energy can cause damage to ghosts. Shang Li took advantage of this and created several clones to consume the attacks of the man with a crew cut, successfully preventing Cui Lan, who was surrounded, from suffering any damage.

Cui Lan exerted force with his calves in a flash, and like a sturdy black panther, he leaped away from the smoke of the explosion.

It only took two deep breaths from the beginning to the end, and the man with a crew cut was firmly captured.

The sharp blade pressed against his neck, digging shallowly into the soft ground.

He fell on his side, his hands were dislocated, and they were folded behind his waist, being stepped on by the long-haired man with silver eyes.

"You really don't know anything about Shang Li. You don't even know what his special abilities are."

Cui Lan lowered his head and said, "You are no match for me in a one-on-one fight, so why are you so confident that you can capture us here?"

On the other side, the ghost's body saw that the situation here was almost settled, so it floated to the second floor and blocked Chen Jin who was about to go to support.

Chen Jin used his supernatural powers to restrict Shang Li's ability to move, but correspondingly, he was unable to distract himself to support his companions downstairs.

The middle-aged man frowned deeply and looked at the ghost warily.

"Commander Chen, I have never studied under you, so I cannot be considered your student."

After a while, Shang Li took the lead in breaking the silent confrontation.

He smiled, raised his two slender arms and gestured, "But, I guess you don't know that you have twelve dear students."

"It's hard to imagine that Commander Chen could have the same feelings for twelve different people and let them switch back and forth right under his nose for ten years without him noticing."

Chen Jin's breathing suddenly stopped.

"...What is your purpose in playing Shang Li?" He gritted his teeth and asked word by word.

"I don't know either."

"Sir, you shouldn't be asking me this."

Shang Li slowed down his voice, "I have been working diligently and want to live a good life."

"If you really want a student named Shang Li, you can take him back."

He turned his head and looked at the young man who followed him quietly, and said to Chen Jin: "But he is probably not the student you want."

"Is that an insult to me?"

Number Two said with a smile, and slowly walked from the darkness in the corridor into the light.

The aura around him was completely different from before, as if he had turned into another person.

"You were the one who leaked all our information."

Shang Li curled the corners of his lips, "Otherwise they wouldn't have been able to act so decisively."

Why is Chen Jin so sure that he and Cui Lan in front of him belong to their timeline, not this timeline?

In this timeline, Cui Lan does not have any criminal record. The old man is not an unreasonable person. As he said in the meeting room, even if he has the same superpowers and strength, he will never act without any evidence.

Furthermore, before he showed up, Chen Jin revealed in one sentence that the person hiding among the people was a "sir". The affirmativeness in his tone surprised Shang Li a little.

You have to know that Shang Li's essence is a data stream, and the so-called ghost form is just distorting the vision of people around him so that they can "see".

In the energy detector, no matter how hard you look, you can only see a shapeless red mass.

"Is it fun to pretend to be retarded?"

He asked, narrowing his red eyes.

“It’s fun.”

Number Two also narrowed his eyes, "You were successfully fooled by me."

"No, it should be that natural trust."

He walked up to the ghost, who was a full head shorter than him, and poked the pale face with his hand, "Don't be sad, you are only twenty-two years old."

"It's understandable that you were deceived by a senior who is a few years older than you. After all, you thought that all the Shang Li were raised by Cui Lan like you and were as lively as you are, right?"

“…”

Shang Li couldn't maintain his smile.

He indeed forgot that no matter which timeline, the essence of "Shang Li" is the same.

Shang Li in the previous timeline could become a villain that gave the protagonist a headache, so it is natural that Shang Li in this timeline cannot become a simple fool like before.

"What a pity! Your plan to use the power of the Superpower Bureau to deal with Jiang Mingyu has failed."

Number Two spread his arms.

"Commander Chen."

Shang Li turned to Chen Jin, who had been silent for a long time, and said, "In this timeline, Jiang Mingyu is no less of a criminal than Cui Lan. Are you just going to let his companions be so arrogant?"

"The task of arresting Jiang Mingyu and Shang Li should be done by the other me."

Chen Jin said: "My only goal is to bring you and Cui Lan back."

As soon as they finished speaking, the crew-cut man and the short-haired woman dragged the dying Cui Lan back to their superior.
