Chapter 190
Supervision and patrols were stepped up in the detention center, but no one showed any intention of informing the black-haired boy. Officer Liu still delivered three meals a day to him, and the black-haired boy remained calm, as if everything was normal.
After putting the food into the room through the small door, Officer Liu looked inside and a hint of doubt flashed through his mind.
...Come to think of it, why didn’t Su Xingyuan do a backflip?
Before, when he saw the black-haired boy doing backflips without stopping, he thought he was weird. But now he was sitting quietly beside the bed, not reading or talking, just lowering his eyes and nonchalantly turning the plastic butterfly/knife in his hand.
No one knew where he got the knife from. Officer Liu was shocked when he saw it for the first time. After careful inspection, he found that it was made of plastic. Thinking that Su Xingyuan had nothing to entertain himself in the room, he did not take it away and just gave it to him to pass the time.
Other than that, he really didn't move at all.
If we talk about peace and tranquility, this place is too peaceful, and it even makes Officer Liu feel uncomfortable everywhere.
Unable to figure it out, Officer Liu suppressed his thoughts and was about to turn around and leave, but the scene in front of him seemed to suddenly freeze and something flashed by.
Officer Liu: “……?”
He was stunned for a moment, his steps stopped involuntarily, and he blinked twice, but the scene before him had not changed at all.
What’s going on? Was he... dazzled just now?
After hesitating for a moment, he calmed himself down and continued to move forward, but the next second, the strange scene flashed before his eyes again.
This time the picture stayed on for a moment longer than the last time, and Officer Liu was finally able to confirm that this was definitely not "dizziness", but that he had indeed seen a picture that he should not have seen!
Moreover, if one recalls carefully, the vague image just now seemed to overlap with the vision transmitted back by the two eyes. In other words, the problem is... not with these eyes.
In a moment, Officer Liu was already sweating profusely. Such a familiar scene made it hard for him not to think of a person who was right behind him at this moment and who could see his back as long as he raised his eyes.
His body was stiff and he wanted to turn his head, but he couldn't move at all. He could only stand there with a pale face, feeling like a thorn in his back.
Such anomalies quickly attracted the attention of the detectives on duty.
Although the procedures for dealing with Su Xingyuan remained unchanged, the cameras in the corridor were directly connected to several monitoring rooms, and several people were monitoring the movements of the black-haired boy at the same time. When Officer Liu stopped in the corridor, they thought he had suddenly remembered something, or that he hadn't explained anything yet. But when he stood there motionless for three, four, or five seconds...
"Something's wrong..."
The team leader who received the report quickly walked to the surveillance camera and looked carefully at Officer Liu on the screen. Then, his pupils shrank slightly and he ordered, "Something happened! Send someone to bring Liu Yuan back!"
——Liu Yuan seemed motionless in the surveillance video, but his hanging hands were trembling very slightly, as if he was resisting boundless fear and pressure, which made people feel creepy.
While hearing the sounds of the team members responding quickly to orders, the team leader's eyes slowly moved to the other side of the screen and fell on the black-haired boy in the corner.
Even through a screen, one could still feel the dead silence and heaviness of the atmosphere in the surveillance space. The black-haired boy's expression remained the same. He didn't even raise his green eyes, as if he was lost in thought. The speed of the butterfly/knife in his hand was maintained at an extremely stable frequency.
If Su Xingyuan himself did not have many strange tricks, and they still hadn't figured out the principles behind them, they would have been extremely suspicious and wary of him. Moreover, at such a close distance, it was impossible for Su Xingyuan not to notice Officer Liu's abnormality and the sudden stop in his footsteps, but he remained calm as usual. The team leader might have thought that Liu Yuan was having health problems due to his age.
"Liu Yuan, how are you?"
Soon, other police officers appeared on the screen and quickly came to Liu Yuan to check on his condition.
"…I'm fine."
With people around me, the seemingly omnipresent feeling of oppression dissipated a little, and the air around me began to flow again. Officer Liu adjusted his breathing very gently, shook his head slowly at his companion, and then slowly turned around and cast his eyes gradually towards the black-haired boy behind him who had not made any sound from beginning to end.
It was at this moment that the black-haired boy finally raised his head.
Those turquoise eyes were like the crosshairs that automatically tracked the target in the game, falling on him without any deviation, but without any aggression, just lightly, as if just a casual glance, and only at this time realized his existence.
However, the next moment, this illusion was broken.
Because the black-haired boy just looked at him, slowly curved his eyes, and said with his mouth:
"Thank you so much."
Officer Liu's heart suddenly turned cold, and a bad premonition spread throughout his body.
grateful……? What did Su Xingyuan thank him for?
Could it be that just now——
Before he could catch that thought, his companion, who had been looking concerned, suddenly had a look of pain and fell to the ground.
"Hey, hey! What happened?!" Liu Yuan's attention was instantly taken away. He hurriedly bent down and held his companion's shoulders and called him, but the other party seemed to be completely unaware of his existence. His eyes were dull and he was immersed in his own world.
He took out his communication device, but couldn't contact anyone. The corridor was quiet. His colleagues who should have noticed something was wrong and rushed over were nowhere to be seen, as if they were forced to stop halfway.
Liu Yuan finally realized something.
“…You did this?”
Hearing this, the black-haired boy did not answer immediately. Instead, he blinked his eyes, retracted the butterfly knife in his hand neatly, and disappeared into thin air. And he no longer sat by the bed, but stood up, walked to the door, stretched out his left hand, and gently pushed the door -
The whole door collapsed like a thin building block.
Liu Yuan understood that perhaps the detention center could not hold Su Xingyuan, and as long as the other party wanted to leave, there was no way to stop him here. But he could never have imagined that leaving here would be so easy for Su Xingyuan.
It is so simple that it does not require any planning or calculation, nor does it require any help from anyone inside or outside. Whenever he felt it was time to go, he only needed to give a gentle push and any obstacle would be cleared away in an instant.
...This is simply not a power that humans can possess!
“I am truly human.”
The black-haired boy who had squatted in front of him at some point said sincerely.
"Don't worry, your companions will be fine. I just want them to remember something." Su Xingyuan blinked again and shook his head. He looked like he had drunk some wine and was a little dizzy. Apparently, he also had some understanding of his current situation, so he spread his hands and said, "There is nothing I can do. There are too many people in this city. It does take a lot of energy to accurately target people."
"Just now a picture suddenly appeared in my mind. It was you doing the experiment, right?" That's why I said thank you to him before I started.
Liu Yuan finally connected the cause and effect at this time. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. However, he endured it under the pressure of fear and the absolute strength of the opponent. He just asked in a deep voice: "What did you show them? What do you want to do?"
The black-haired boy said cheerfully: "It's nothing, maybe the scene is just a little exciting."
"By the way, I specifically selected you, not just to chat with you." The black-haired boy gave him a bright smile: "Don't you want to meet the murderer who hurt your child?"
Liu Yuan was about to say something when he suddenly stopped.
"for……"
Su Xingyuan: "Because I am a very kind person."
Liu Yuan: “?”

Today is the day that Ruan Tiexin has been lying in the safe fortress.
As an excellent hunter, she is very patient. Unless it was time for her body to eat or drink water, she would not even step out of her bed which was made up of several layers of thick quilts.
It did seem like they were making a fuss out of nothing, and Ruan Tiexin herself wondered if she had been a little too defensive. However, as soon as she recalled the scene at that time, her face turned pale in an instant, and she thought it was better to be safe.
After all, based on Su Xingyuan's personality, he is definitely interested in filtering all the people, including her who has recovered all her memories.
But it’s been several days now, right? Su Xingyuan should have taken some action?
Ruan Tiexin pondered for a moment, but still did not move. He closed his eyes and began to use his magic power.
Gradually, a clear picture emerged in her mind.
At this time, Ruan Tiexin didn't think there was anything wrong. She didn't have any symptoms of heart blindness. On the contrary, she was the type who could easily construct pictures and scenes in her mind. It is normal for some things to pop up in your mind when you have had a good sleep, closed your eyes and done nothing.
It’s okay, it’s not a big deal, it’s just a good way to kill time.
Three seconds later, Ruan Tiexin: “…”
Ruan Tiexin: “???”
Wait, why did the scene change and Su Xingyuan’s face appeared? ?
During these two days, Su Xingyuan's face no longer corresponded to titles such as "the strongest hunter" and "National Treasure Hunter of Country C" for her. She even deliberately controlled herself not to think of Su Xingyuan, because as soon as she thought of him, that face would appear involuntarily.
…Not to mention, the one that appeared now was the form of the blonde girl that she would never forget!
This is not a beauty that can be admired in peace; this is simply the prelude to a nightmare! !
Ruan Tiexin immediately opened her eyes, trying to clear the picture in her mind before the horrifying scene appeared. Then she found that no matter what efforts she made, the picture in her mind was still playing firmly and cruelly.
Ruan Tiexin: “…”
She understood, she understood completely.
Sometimes it feels helpless to live in this world. Specifically, it manifests as wanting to kill the savior who came to save people.
She was somewhat mentally prepared. At this time when other people were getting ready to go to sleep at night, when she closed her eyes, she would see a blonde girl wearing a hood. Even if she couldn't see her face clearly, just by looking at her temperament and silky hair, she would think that she was a very beautiful child. Coupled with the arena-like environment around it and the strange costumes of the people, it was like a glimpse into another world.
They thought it was a dream and waited with great anticipation for the development of the "plot". When the audience wanted to see the face of the victorious blonde girl, they were also filled with excitement and curiosity.
So the next second.
As they wished, they saw a face that would last them a lifetime.
