Chapter 89
The night is lonely.
The temperature difference in autumn is very large. A gust of wind blows at night, stinging the cheeks of pedestrians on the road.
The head of the Special Department, who was about to go to bed, hugged a hot water bottle, curled up in the quilt, and sighed:
"What a perfect night to sleep in."
The next second, the minister's bedroom door was kicked open.
"minister!"
Qi Yao, the captain of the Rongcheng team, came over, pulled back his blanket, and grabbed the minister by the collar, saying:
"I have something important to tell you!"
As an ordinary person, the minister fumbled for his glasses, put them on, and hurriedly slapped Qi Yao's hand away.
"Can't you be more steady?" The minister, whose sleep was disturbed, couldn't help but grit his teeth.
The minister put on his warm coat and held a hot water bottle, and motioned Qi Yao to follow him to the study.
After drinking a cup of warm tea, the minister calmed down and asked:
"You are not sleeping so late at night. What important thing do you have to tell me?"
Qi Yao wiped his messy stubble, took a sip of the tea that was burning his mouth, and quickly put the cup down.
"Minister, I felt an unusual energy fluctuation in the community today. I chased after it and found that it was an energy fluctuation that only people with special abilities could have!"
The minister nodded in understanding and continued to sip his tea leisurely.
"So, you found a new person with special abilities? Then recruit him. If he still wants to live a normal life and signs a confidentiality agreement, he can continue to work or go to school. Haven't we dealt with this kind of thing before? Why are you making such a fuss?"
The minister took a sip of tea, but saw Qi Yao opposite him with a serious expression.
"Minister, I didn't see anyone when I arrived. There was only a child who was a few years old, and he didn't show any signs of awakening superpowers."
The minister put down his teacup and put the hot water bottle in his pocket, and he also felt something was wrong.
"Is this psychic afraid of being discovered and hiding himself?"
Qi Yao shook his head, briefly explained the situation, and gave a possible guess.
"Minister, do you think there is a possibility that this psychic is one of those who disappeared?"
In the real world, people always disappear inexplicably. The earliest case can be traced back to more than ten years ago.
But at first everyone thought that he was lost or kidnapped, and didn't think of anything else.
It was not until six years ago that Qi Yao, who had just graduated from college, saw with his own eyes a monster crawling out of a crack in the ground. After a narrow escape, he awakened special powers.
The superiors then took it seriously, set up relevant departments, and began to pay attention to the occurrence of some abnormal incidents.
As one of the earliest psychics to awaken his abilities, Qi Yao has been actively dealing with various related abnormal incidents.
At the same time, Qi Yao and the higher authorities are also constantly paying attention to the search for those who suddenly disappeared.
They didn't dare to confirm it before, but after experiencing more abnormal events in recent years, the higher authorities finally dared to confirm that there is another world outside their world.
Monsters crawled out of this world, devouring human flesh and blood to strengthen themselves.
And those who disappeared most likely went to another world.
But until now, they have not contacted the missing people, and cannot confirm whether they are dead or alive.
Hearing Qi Yao say this, the minister's expression became serious and he pondered for a while.
"What's the reason for your guess? Could it be that the person who awakened the superpowers was afraid and hid? Or that the child is the superpower? But he is too young to realize that he has changed?"
Qi Yao had thought about the questions raised by the minister several times in his mind.
"The newly awakened psychic has weak abilities, so it's impossible for him to hide without leaving any trace. I searched the house carefully and there was no trace of anyone else appearing."
"As for my little neighbor, I won't hide it from you. He is weaker than the average child. He even had a fever during the season change some time ago. If there were any changes, I would have noticed it."
Qi Yao likes to tease children, especially his fair and tender little neighbors.
If Xingnuo really awakened his special powers, with Qi Yao's attention to Xingnuo, it would be impossible for him not to discover it!
"If you rule out the two most likely options, the only option left is the least likely one."
Qi Yao thought of the special powerful energy fluctuation in the afternoon, which made even this currently highest-level psychic tremble with fear.
"With such a strong energy fluctuation, if it was someone from our world, there's no way I wouldn't recognize him."
So, after tossing and turning all night, Qi Yao finally came to a conclusion -
This person may be from another world!
"That's why this person disappeared so quickly. He disappeared while I was going upstairs."
The minister had taken it seriously at this point, and nodded seriously with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Your little neighbor has only one father. Do you think it could be his mother? Or some other relative? Who disappeared and came back here to see him through some special means?"
Qi Yao was not sure either, and he discussed it with the minister for a whole night. Finally, he returned to the community with dark circles under his eyes.
The sky brightened.
Xingnuo was jumping around holding his brother's hand, wearing a small round hat to protect himself from the sun, and humming nursery rhymes happily.
Seeing Uncle Qi Yao walking in from outside the community, Xingnuo raised his little hand and waved.
"Uncle, I'm going out to play with my brother today~"
Xingnuo, who didn't have to go to school on Saturday, shook her brother's hand with a look of boasting on her face.
Qi Yao, who was originally a little tired, saw the little guy so excited. He walked up to him and rubbed his red little face while he was not prepared.
As Xing Nuo stomped her feet in anger and Shen Baizhou looked at her with a cold and threatening look, Qi Yao, who was clinging to his anger, ran away laughing.
Xingnuo, whose little face was almost rubbed flat, snorted and walked out holding his brother's hand.
"Brother, let's go out!"
Shen Baizhou glanced back at his neighbor Qi Yao, opened his eyelids lazily, as if he had not woken up yet, hummed, and took Xingnuo out of the community gate.
Shen Baizhou's high school was not a key middle school, and there were no make-up classes on Saturdays and Sundays. He held his brother's hand and walked slowly on the way to the car shop.
When they arrived at the car shop, Xingnuo grabbed his brother's hand and jumped up the stairs.
"Wow! I'm up here!"
Shen Baizhou looked at his brother jumping on the stairs, told him to be careful, turned his head, and looked at the cars passing by one by one.
Xingnuo also ran over, pretending to understand a lot, and patted the car body with his little hands.
The boss who was repairing the car came over and saw that it was a high school student in school uniform with a child. He couldn't help but laugh and asked:
"How big a car do you want? I have several new models that just arrived."
Shen Baizhou stopped in front of a car and pointed to the small seat in front of the electric car.
"Is this suitable for children? Can my brother sit on it?"
The electric car owner made an OK gesture.
"Don't worry, children under ten years old can sit on it. If the small bench in front is not used, it can be folded away."
Shen Baizhou walked around this electric car that can carry a baby, and his expression showed satisfaction.
"Xingnuo, come and sit on it and try it."
Xingnuo trotted over and was held up by his brother by his arms, sitting on a small chair in front of the pedal of the electric car, with only a little bit of his head visible from the handlebars.
Shen Baizhou took Xingnuo for a ride on the electric bike.
Xingnuo faced the wind, his little curly hair was blown around in the air, he screamed several times, feeling the air constantly flowing beside him.
"We're so fast!"
For Xingnuo, who is used to walking, this is his first time riding an electric car.
He was so excited but didn't dare to move, so he just huddled back and leaned his little body against his brother.
Seeing that Xingnuo liked it, Shen Baizhou parked the car in front of the store and bought it without bargaining.
The boss smiled so hard that his teeth were showing, and gave them two yellow duck helmets, one large and one small.
Xingnuo puts on a yellow duck helmet, and the little spring leaves on his head move back and forth, so cute.
Shen Baizhou fixed the helmet strap for him, and then he stepped onto the electric bike with his long legs. The young man was full of vigor and shouted:
"Set off!"
Xingnuo raised his little fist and said, "Let's go!"
The two brothers got on their electric bikes, and, feeling the novelty of the experience, they started to ride around the riverside of Rongcheng.
Xingnuo felt as if he was flying faster than flying. He raised his head and looked at the dry and yellow leaves beside the river.
On the way, they met a group of will-o'-the-wisp teenagers racing on motorcycles.
The teenagers shouted a few times and walked around the little yellow duck electric car, laughing.
"Brother! You look pretty cool, why did you buy such a car?"
The will-o'-the-wisp boy rode his motorcycle and deliberately circled the little yellow car twice, making a humming sound.
Shen Baizhou had an indifferent look on his face, riding the electric bike steadily.
"This car is convenient for taking my brother out for a ride."
The will-o'-the-wisp boy made two mocking sounds and laughed again.
"So you're still a brother-con! Where's your brother? He's still breastfeeding, right?"
Xingnuo was sitting in front of the electric car. Hearing this, he poked his little head out from under his brother's arm, his little face serious, and corrected:
"I'm already in the last year of kindergarten and I don't drink milk anymore."
The Will-O-W-Fire teenagers looked at the little guy and saw that he was wearing a little yellow duck helmet on his head. They laughed and reached out their hands to knock on their helmets.
"Kid, look how cool my helmet is!"
He shouted, and drove forward quickly with a few brothers, performing a show of drift at the intersection ahead.
The rapid friction sound between the motorcycle tires and the ground was so harsh that Xingnuo couldn't help but cover his ears.
Seeing sparks coming out of the ground, Xingnuo widened his eyes in surprise and pointed at his brother.
"Brother, there are so many little sparks."
Shen Baizhou rode a small electric scooter, wearing a yellow duck helmet that was not at all in line with his rebellious temperament, and slowly stopped in front of several motorcycles.
