Chapter 57

When I saw someone on the forum guessing that I gave up on purpose, Su Bei realized that this was a good idea, but the prerequisite is that there is a suitable reason.

Until recently, when Su Bei realized that there was an undercover agent from the "Black Flash" organization in the school, he finally thought of this reason. The first and second place are more likely to be noticed by this undercover agent than others. He doesn't want to be "seen". Isn't this reasonable?

But there is no need to explain these. Su Bei looked down, supported himself with both hands, and easily jumped down from the five-meter-high branch. Thanks to the physical fitness of the psychic, he could perform so freely.

"Is there anything else? If not, I'll leave first."

"Hey wait!" Jiang Tianming stopped him immediately, "If you don't want to complete the mission, then why are you still here?"

Hearing this, Su Bei thought for a moment and gave an ambiguous answer: "Maybe it's the instruction of fate."

When she found a tree to sit on again, her "comic consciousness" appeared again: "I found that you don't seem to like lying very much."

So far, apart from the part about the specific content of his supernatural power, Su Bei seems to have almost never lied. He either answers truthfully or does not answer, but he always makes people think in the direction he wants.

Su Bei leaned against the tree and adjusted himself to a comfortable position. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Lies will always be exposed one day, but the truth will not. The truth can only be understood correctly or incorrectly."

This is equivalent to leaving some room for yourself, with room for adjustment on both the upper and lower limits.

If any of his plans failed and he didn't achieve the level he wanted to show, as long as he didn't say it directly, he could explain it.

But once he said it and couldn't do it, it was irreversible.

This is the adjustment space for the lower limit.

If he had said at the beginning that his ability was in the top three among freshmen, then it would be difficult for him to defeat the purple-haired girl now. Because the readers' impression of him is that he is just the best among the freshmen. How can a new esper defeat a mature esper?

Besides, readers always like to use their imaginations. Sometimes, they can come up with good ideas that Su Bei himself has not thought of. So not telling the truth is also to leave room for readers to express themselves.

This is the adjustment space for the upper limit.

Of course, another important point is that he really likes to tell the truth! Su Bei sincerely believes that before encountering this kind of mess, he was a sincere handsome man. Even if he is forced to become a riddle teller now, he will not lose his original heart! (shocked voice)

This time he chose a good location, and he didn't meet anyone else until the evening. This map is so big, how could he always be unlucky?

After dinner, Su Bei was preparing to take a walk around the area to check for risks, but his mental power just happened to sense a team marching not far away.

There was a leader in the team, holding a rope with five students tied to it. Apparently, these five students were caught by the "Black Flash" men.

Let's go and take a look. Su Bei has a hunch that the person he meets may be an acquaintance.

After all, there were definitely not many people who were still in the alien space and had not been caught, and among them, those who had experienced the plot before definitely accounted for a large part. Not to mention that five people were caught at once.

Thinking of this, he quietly moved over under the cover of night, hiding behind a tree. When he looked out, he saw familiar faces in the team. Zhao Xiaoyu and Mu Tieren were both in the team.

However, the conditions of the two men were very different. The wooden man was covered with wounds and was tied up tightly with ten circles of rope, almost binding his entire arm.

However, Zhao Xiaoyu was not injured at all. He was at the front of the five kidnapped people, chatting and laughing with the man in black who kidnapped them.

Seeing this, Su Bei observed the other students' conditions. They also had some injuries, but not too many, and they all looked fine. Although they were more or less scared, they were not too excited.

Su Bei noticed that their eyes would occasionally fall on Zhao Xiaoyu and Mu Tieren. They admired the former but felt guilty about the latter.

Interesting, it seems that a lot of interesting things have happened here as well.

Anyway, you can see it from comics. Su Bei retracted his gaze and turned around to leave. However, as soon as he turned his head, he suddenly found that there was another person behind him.

Su Bei: “!”

Even he was almost scared to death and almost couldn't help but scream. Fortunately, after seeing who was coming, Su Bei managed to hold back in time.

Standing behind him was the gloomy-looking Wu Jin. Because his hair covered most of his face, at first glance I thought he was a ghost from a horror story.

After stroking his chest to calm his restless heartbeat, Su Bei asked, "When did you come?"

"I followed them all the time." Wu Jin was referring to the team that was captured.

Hearing this, Su Bei raised his eyebrows and said, "You were originally following Zhao Xiaoyu."

The purple-haired boy nodded.

Then Su Bei understood that Wu Jin must have relied on his supernatural powers to avoid being noticed when the man came to capture them, and that's why he managed to escape.

After thinking it through, he walked around Wu Jin and prepared to leave for a good night's sleep. However, Wu Jin's eyes were clearly mostly covered by his hair, but that gaze was impossible to ignore.

Wu Jin: Stare——

Su Bei: "..."

He took two steps, feeling uneasy, and finally couldn't help turning back and asking helplessly, "What do you want?"

"Save people." Wu Jin said concisely.

Su Bei fell silent again, and after a moment he replied, "They will all be locked up in one place in the end. Why don't you go there with them? You can save more people."

Perhaps he thought what he said made sense, Wu Jin thought about it and nodded, then looked at Su Bei gloomily: "Together."

This was the third time Su Bei was silent. He couldn't help but said, "You know I don't want to go, right?"

Wu Jin was honest: "I know."

"and you……"

Before Su Bei could finish his words, he replied as if he knew what Su Bei was going to say: "But you can."

You don't want to, but you can.

This "can" does not only mean that you can rescue people, but also that you can go to rescue people.

Hearing him say this, Su Bei suddenly became interested and was not in a hurry to leave: "How do you judge this?"

Wu Jin thought for a moment: "Emotion"

Interesting. Although Su Bei didn't want to save people, he could go. In fact, because of the other party's performance just now, he no longer had any particular reluctance to go.

But he was sure that his attitude just now did not show anything. After all, he had been acting for so long that he still had enough control over his facial expressions. But Wu Jin said that he could feel his emotions.

You have to know that Wu Jin's ability is [Silence if you want to be silent], an ability that can reduce one's sense of presence and has nothing to do with emotions.

So is this a natural sensitivity to emotions, or is it related to the second state he showed in the comics?

"How about this." Su Bei said in a good mood, "I will help you save these five people, and you tell me why you cover your face with your hair, how about that?"

Wu Jin was stunned for a moment, and then he agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

This time it was Su Bei's turn to be stunned. He felt like he had been fooled so easily.

But he did not break his promise and approached the team again. It can be seen that the black-clothed man's ability should be related to the rope. If it was just an ordinary rope, someone would definitely escape if he tied up the five people so lightly.

The rope is similar to a whip, so defeating this leader is similar to defeating the purple-haired girl before.

But what he needs is not to defeat the opponent, but to rescue the person, so there is a simpler way.

He thought about it, then manipulated the two gears, close to the ground and, with the help of the cover of night, touched the ankles of Zhao Xiaoyu and the wooden iron man.

Because there was no one watching at the back, the wooden iron man simply lowered his head and saw the bronze gear.

Zhao Xiaoyu, who was chatting with the man in black, was moved. He stroked his temples inadvertently, lowered his head, and saw the gear.

To be honest, if it wasn't Zhao Xiaoyu who was chatting with the enemy, Su Bei would never be so bold as to touch her with the gear at this time. Otherwise, if the enemy screamed in surprise, it would not only harm her, but also alarm her.

But since it was Zhao Xiaoyu, there was no need to worry about this. She was a smart person and would never lose her composure easily.

After seeing the gear, Zhao Xiaoyu's mind moved, and she stepped back a little without making a sound. Of course, she also recognized who the gear belonged to. Although she didn't understand why Su Bei saved her, it didn't prevent her from making plans for herself.

It was obvious that she would need to attack the enemy to save them. If she stood with them, she would be injured by mistake, so she should step back.

"What are you going to do?" Wu Jin, who was standing next to Su Bei, looked at the team not far away and asked curiously. Of course, there was no trace of curiosity in his appearance, and he looked completely lifeless.

Su Bei curled the corners of his mouth and activated the gears that had been arranged in various places to attack the man in black together.

Some of these gears were wrapped in leaves, some were topped with a piece of wood, and some were directly inserted into the soil. These fake gears attacked the man in black from all directions, as if many people were besieging him.

The man in black panicked immediately. He had a hard time dealing with the big guy at the back alone. If he hadn't cleverly threatened him with other students, he wouldn't have been able to subdue him.

At the same time, the big guy at the back, who had finally calmed down, started rioting again, as if he had made an agreement with the group of people attacking him outside.

The man in black felt that his supernatural powers were being pulled wildly and his mental strength was being rapidly consumed.

Faced with internal and external troubles, the man in black realized very clearly that he would never be able to deal with a group of students under such circumstances, even if they were only first graders.

Which is more important, merit or life, of course the latter. So he abandoned the five students he had captured with great difficulty without hesitation, put away his supernatural powers, and fled at high speed.

Su Bei was thinking whether he should go over or not. He had already saved everyone, and he had no intention of taking credit. Besides, once the gears came out, they wouldn't be able to recognize that it was their own doing.

But if he didn't go, Su Bei was afraid that Wu Jin would say something that would make others misunderstand that he really wanted to save people, and that would ruin his image.

While he was thinking, Wu Jin suddenly said, "Awesome."

Su Bei blinked and said, "I was just about to ask, what is the rule for you to say two words at a time?"

"Convenient." Wu Jin gave another two-word answer, then realized that he was more likely to be misunderstood, so he added, "Just make it clear."

This question was originally just a thought, but after being interrupted by the other party, Su Bei remembered his previous deal with the other party: "Now you can answer my previous question, why do you cover your face with your hair?"

Wu Jin nodded: "Because I am very good-looking."

Hearing this answer, countless comic book plots immediately popped up in Su Bei's mind, such as because he is so handsome, people will die/go into coma/fall in love with him if they see his face...

Thinking of this, he asked directly: "What would happen if I looked you in the face?"

"I'll be shocked." Wu Jin answered seriously.

Su Bei: "..."

Even when looking at Wu Jin's sincere half eye, Su Bei could hardly help but feel that he was teasing him. "I'll be shocked" is fine, but what kind of a weird answer is this!

He asked again without giving up: "If there is no other effect, there will be no problem for me to see your true face."

If there is no problem, then what about the love in the pupils of the man who fought Wu Jin in the comic at that time? If we say that he was simply shocked, it would be too much of a stretch.

Seeing that the other party nodded, Su Bei decided to take the risk: "Then can you let me take a look? I have been curious about what you look like for a long time."

While speaking, he used his heart sounds and his "comic consciousness" to say: "If I'm controlled or something, can you tell me afterwards?"

He was afraid that he was being controlled without knowing it, or that he might even lose his memory.

Perhaps this request was not too illegal, or perhaps it was destined to be useless, in any case, "Comic Consciousness" immediately agreed: "Okay."

Whatever the reason, Su Bei relaxed after receiving this answer. He relaxed and looked at Wu Jin with a smile, ready to appreciate this beauty that was said to "shock".

After agreeing, Wu Jin did not hesitate. He lowered his head, quickly brushed back the hair that was scattered in front of him, and then tied it into a small braid behind his head.

After doing all this, he raised his head.

In an instant, Su Bei's normal eyes widened and his breathing stopped for a second.

So beautiful, so beautiful!

There is no doubt what kind of face it is. It is a face that will make people feel stunning at first sight. Every feature is exquisite and perfect.

The light grey eyes and the pale face might seem a little dull to ordinary people, but on his face, it gave people a feeling of being ethereal and otherworldly.

The dark purple hair and rosy lips add a touch of color to this ethereal beauty, making her look both celestial and enchanting, indistinguishable between male and female, and unique.

It was so beautiful that Su Bei had to admit that he was indeed shocked.

Apparently Wu Jin was also very aware of how much damage his face could cause. He raised his head and smiled confidently: "Are you also intoxicated by me?"

Subei: ""

First of all, he had to admit that even Wu Jin looked very good with this expression. And compared to the ethereal good looks just now, he looked a little more youthful, which made people feel more moved.

Secondly...does he have a dual personality? The way he switches between the two is just to lift up his hair. Otherwise, it would be hard for Su Bei to explain why his behavior is so different now.

"Is your hair a seal of some kind?" Su Bei couldn't help but ask, gesturing with his hands, "You weren't like this a second ago."

Wu Jin was as honest as ever, but what he said was shocking: "No, I just used my hair to cover my face and habitually made myself invisible. But when I showed my face, I knew I was the most beautiful person in the world."

...there is something wrong

To be honest, Su Bei was tired of keeping silent, but he still couldn't help but keep silent for a while before he spoke with difficulty: "Haha, your mental state is quite magical..."

He himself felt that the situation was too awkward, so he quickly changed the subject: "Why don't you lift your hair normally? I thought you were socially anxious before."

What he said was true. Judging from his usual behavior, Wu Jin, who was covering his face, probably wished he could become invisible.

Hearing this, Wu Jin couldn't help but laugh, his laughter was extremely charming: "Hahahahaha, but I always bring trouble when I go out, don't I? Sometimes beauty is also a sin."

After saying this, he wiped the water stains from the corners of his eyes caused by laughing, and looked at Su Bei, who had a complicated expression: "But it doesn't matter in front of you. I know it's okay to tell you."

"Thank you for your mistaken trust." Su Bei said calmly.

Of course, he could hear the sadness behind Wu Jin's words, but since the other party didn't seem to care, he would never bring it up.

As for what Wu Jin said later, Su Bei could only say that he was wrong in the end. For Su Bei, all the secrets he got now were information that could be used in the future.

If there was an opportunity to enhance his supernatural powers, he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't use this secret.

Although he thought so, Su Bei did not ask Wu Jin for more secrets, even though he knew that Wu Jin must be hiding something.

He pushed aside the grass in front of him and looked at the team of five. They were still there, each using the healing potions they had redeemed from the mall to treat themselves.

It was not a bad idea to stay where they were. Although the man in black who had just arrested them might come back with his companions, firstly, it was already dark, and even if they wanted to arrest someone else, they would have to wait until daytime. Secondly, the other party would think that they had already left, and generally would not return to look for them.

Seeing that they didn't leave, Su Bei turned to look at Wu Jin, who had let his hair down and had become gloomy again: "You should go find Zhao Xiaoyu and the others."

"What about you?" Wu Jin, who had turned back into his original form, continued to say two words at a time.

"I" Su Bei raised his eyebrows, "Of course I will continue to travel freely."

After saying this, he turned around and walked into the forest without any regrets, waving his hand casually: "I hope we can meet in class next time."

After leaving here, Su Bei found a place, lit a bonfire, and then fell into a light sleep.

When Su Bei woke up the next morning, he checked his watch as usual. As expected, there was a new task on his watch.

“Ultimate mission: destroy the enemy base camp. After destroying it, everyone can leave the alien space.

Mission clues: The base camp is a house in the forest. Please ask someone with tracking abilities to lead the way, otherwise you may not be able to find it.

Mission Reward: 10,000 Points"

Oh, it seems that the tip he gave me before can be used. Su Bei raised his eyebrows and relaxed. As long as the tip is useful, even if he doesn't appear on the last day, he doesn't worry about not having a sense of presence.

That's right, on this last day, Su Bei didn't plan to make a move. If what he needed was to become a popular character, then of course the more plots and highlights the better. But he just needed to use comics to change his supernatural powers, so there was no need to appear every time.

Now is not the time to show his presence. Before he grows into his final form, it would be wrong to say more. In order not to reveal his true colors, it is better for him to appear less.

He said he would not go, and he stayed under the tree for the whole day. Even when a classmate was caught under the tree, he did not say a word.

Taking advantage of this time, Su Bei used his supernatural power to observe the compass. He deliberately chose a tree not far from the local base camp to rest. There were many people coming and going, and each of them had a different destiny compass displayed above their heads.

Su Bei's main focus is on the big pointer. The small pointer has not moved downward so far, and the upward content is already known, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it.

The big pointer changed a lot, and after a whole day of observation, Su Bei had some ideas.

Each point on the compass should represent relatively fixed content, but generally speaking, the compass can be divided into two parts. The upper half is generally good things, and the lower half is generally bad things.

However, the difference between the good and bad mentioned here and the little pointer is that the big pointer should point to the good and bad of big things, not the small things happening at the moment.

For example, Su Bei saw a man in black, and although the little finger pointed to the left, the big finger was at the bottom. After a while, when he came back, he caught Jiang Tianming.

As soon as Su Bei saw that the person being captured was Jiang Tianming, he knew what was going on. It was obvious that this was a plot by the other party, and the purpose was probably to complete the ultimate mission, blow up the base camp, and leave the alien space.

Capturing Jiang Tianming was a small victory, but bringing Jiang Tianming back and causing the base camp to be bombed was a big failure.

So that's the case. It seems that adjusting the direction of the big pointer is the key to the problem. If he wants to save the world, he must want a real victory, not a temporary victory.

Su Bei felt that he had finally understood part of the key. If he could appear in the final battle of the comic, then it would all depend on Jiang Tianming's fate compass.

At least the destruction of the world must be related to the protagonist, otherwise he would be the protagonist of this world in vain. If Jiang Tianming's big pointer points downwards, he will try his best to adjust it upwards.

Well, Su Bei knew that his idea was too simple, and the actual situation would never be as good as he expected. But it didn't matter, since the finale was still a long way off, he could just comfort himself with a beautiful fantasy.
