Clinging to a sliver of hope, the scarred man weighed his options and then charged at Jiang Yuan with a roar, veins bulging on his forehead and neck, as if he were using all his strength.
Jiang Yuan watched the scarred man pounce on her without flinching. Even when his hands transformed into five claws and lashed out at her like a ferocious beast, she didn't budge an inch.
The scarred man felt a surge of joy.
Jiang Yuan didn't dodge; she wanted to take his claw attack head-on.
If that's the case, he has a chance of winning!
As the scarred man thought about it, a look of excitement appeared on his face, as if victory was imminent.
But just when his claws were only a centimeter away from Jiang Yuan, it was as if a barrier was blocking his way. No matter how much force he used, he could not move forward even a little bit, and could not touch Jiang Yuan or hurt her.
how so……
barrier?
What kind of superpower does she have?
Jiang Yuan ignored the surprise on the scarred man's face, raised her hand and flicked it lightly at the scarred man's claw like a glass marble.
The scarred man immediately felt a powerful surge of energy rush into his body, repelling him.
In front of him was Jiang Yuan, and behind him was...
Suspended in mid-air!
The scarred man fell from a great height.
In those fractions of a second, his face changed several expressions.
From initial panic to fear to eventual helplessness and fear of death.
Others couldn't see it, but Jiang Yuan saw it clearly.
Seeing the scarred man fall, Jiang Yuan also jumped off the rooftop, her body as light as a sheet of paper.
The scarred man watched Jiang Yuan leap downwards, reached out to grab her, and cried out in his eyes, "Help—"
Help!
He didn't want to fall and turn into a persimmon!
Jiang Yuan is truly capable of killing!
He thought she only knew how to save people!
Just as the scarred man was about to land, Jiang Yuan made a hand seal, and a golden light enveloped him as he slowly descended to the ground.
The scarred man was so scared he wet himself.
His underwear was soaking wet, and he was still somewhat incredulous when he saw that he had landed safely.
Is he alive?
He's still alive?
He's not dead?
God is on his side!
No, no, it's not God.
He clearly felt something pulling him down gently.
It's Jiang Yuan!
The scarred man looked at Jiang Yuan, his eyes filled with confusion.
Didn't Jiang Yuan want him to die? Why did she save him?
Before he could ask, Jiang Yuan spoke first, "Captain Wang, call the Bureau of Mysteries and have them take this person back. He's a superhuman."
Only then did the scarred man realize that he was surrounded by police officers, their guns pointed at him.
The scarred man felt a chill run down his spine.
We're doomed.
“You can’t get him to talk, but the Secret Service has a way,” Jiang Yuan said, looking at the scarred man.
The most common approach is to have a heart-to-heart talk with him, get him to confess, or try to pry something out of him, and treat him like an ordinary person.
But the people in the Mysterious Bureau are different; they clearly distinguish between ordinary people and those with superpowers.
They have their own methods for dealing with people with superpowers, so that they can get them to reveal everything they know.
Most importantly, they can't keep an eye on people with superpowers, but the Bureau of Mysteries can.
Wang Chang was not angry at being ordered by Jiang Yuan, but replied politely, "Yes, Master Jiang, I will contact the people from the Mysterious Bureau immediately."
Jiang Yuan helped him earn KPIs, and he was so grateful that he wouldn't be angry.
Furthermore, they have even less control over people with superpowers. Even without Jiang Yuan saying anything, he would call the Bureau of Mysteries and ask them to send someone over immediately to take the person away.
If a person with superpowers is imprisoned here and escapes, they will also be held responsible.
If he could shirk this responsibility, he would definitely choose to do so.
If it's easy to shirk responsibility, who would want to take on the burden themselves?
After saying that, Wang Chang took out his phone, made a call, muttered a few words, and then hung up.
"Master Jiang, the people from the Mysterious Bureau said they'll immediately send someone from the vicinity over," Wang Chang reported, as if Jiang Yuan were the mastermind behind the operation and the head of their police station.
Normally, anyone wishing to access the Mysterious Bureau must undergo multiple layers of approval.
But the situation is tense now, and since they've captured someone with superpowers, he can use the fast track to directly call the Bureau of Mysteries to report the situation and submit his application.
"kindness."
"How many ran away?"
Jiang Yuan asked again.
"We checked the surrounding surveillance footage. A total of twenty-seven people entered the Jiuju Hotel tonight. Including this one, we've caught twenty-three, and four escaped," Wang Chang honestly replied, even reporting the data to Jiang Yuan.
“But Master Jiang, don’t worry. We’ve already identified the remaining four and their addresses. I believe we’ll catch them soon,” Wang Chang added.
The implication was that Jiang Yuan didn't need to get involved in such trivial matters; they could handle it themselves.
Jiang Yuan really helped a lot tonight, enabling them to capture so many people.
“More than twenty-seven,” Jiang Yuan said.
"More than that? May I ask how many more Master Jiang is missing?" Wang Chang asked humbly, not treating Jiang Yuan as a little girl at all, but as an elder.
"This restaurant is their stronghold. Whenever they pull off a big score, they come here to celebrate."
"With so many people in such a large group, some people in the restaurant might not know who they are, but what about the manager who agreed to let them have the whole place to themselves?"
"They were all armed and didn't look like good people. Wouldn't an ordinary person suspect their identities?"
Jiang Yuan reminded him.
Wang Changxuan immediately understood Jiang Yuan's meaning.
It was their oversight.
