"Magistrate Chen Ge?" Su Hao heard this name for the first time.
However, that didn't prevent him from linking it up with what happened. Witch Su Wan, Magistrate Chen Ge; Aunt Su Wan brought Chen Yiran to train. Then where would this Magistrate Chen Ge be at? If one's father went missing, what would the one closest who care the most do?
Swish!
Su Hao activated the virtual screen.
"Searching for Chen Ge."
Countless data flashed, showing countless names.
Hundreds of names showed up, and Su Hao screened them by narrowing the scope to Jianghe City. Now only three names remain; a woman, a child, and a middle-aged man who is about the same age as Su Wan.
"Is it you?" Su Hao muttered to himself.
"Surveillance camera."
Swish!
Su Hao searched for Chen Ge's activities.
The surveillance cameras covered all major shopping malls and major networks, which even included government agencies. All information related to Chen Ge was captured. No matter how quick Chen Ge is in calculations, he would have never thought that someone would have such a powerful ability to integrate all monitoring systems.
When all videos related to Chen Ge were extracted...
Su Hao then discovered an amazing fact.
The scope of Chen Ge's activities always revolved around Su Hao. That day, when Su Hao obtained the mysterious card, Chen Ge "coincidentally" vanished for a few minutes. When Su Hao confronted the Sun family, Chen Ge was also active behind the scenes. Su Hao's doubts were finally resolved!
No wonder it was so smooth in the past. It turned out that Chen Ge was helping him!
The appearance of the mysterious card...
The man in white in the past...
Chen Ge, also known as Magistrate, had been protecting Su Hao in silence, or to be precise, he was protecting Su Hao's family.
"Chen Ge." Su Hao read out that name.
He was no longer that ignorant esper in the past. When Chen Ge's identity had been ensured, Su Hao's first reaction was what is Chen Ge's actual strength! Since his father Su Tiancheng is a peak world esper, then his aunt Su Wan and Chen Ge must be at least a world esper too!
His aunt was injured.
Her Rule Force had been exhausted, and she could only utilize bits of energy. If Su Hao was right, Chen Ge should be in the same situation too!
A world esper.
When Rule Force vanishes, they become unique ordinary people.
"Seems that it's a need for me to find him once."
Light lit up within Su Hao's eyes.
The things that happened in the past, he now understood them. This ancient mansion was no longer useful to him. Su Hao dragged Li Xin, who was now like dead meat, back to the hotel. As for that lean man, he left Su Hao with a method to contact him and then left. Su Hao knew that before he surpassed his dad in strength, he couldn't get involved with that matter...
The truth of this world!
For Su Hao, this secret involved too many things.
That included...
His dad might still be alive!
Su Hao silently put this matter into his heart and didn't dare to tell even to his family because he knew that once he gave hope to them that someone deemed to be dead might still be alive, that it would be even more suffering if the end result were false. That same pain that his mother had experienced once mustn't happen again.
Huangliang City.
No one knew what happened there.
The disappearance of the little yellow hat tour group didn't cause any ripple here. The elderly knew for a long time that they could die at any moment and even arranged for the future before they left. Everything went smoothly. There was no sudden surprise to Su Hao; it was too smooth that Su Hao was shocked.
Of course...
He didn't consider a certain fool who was awake in the morning at a hotel...
"Why am I here?"
Li Xin watched himself lying on a big bed of a hotel in horror. His mind was in chaos, and he didn't have much memory of what happened before. Li Xin, who was well versed in various novels, felt something was wrong. Damn, in those novels, this scene represents the aftermath of getting drunk.
Could it be that I...
Li Xin looked in tremble at a figure lying next to him. Carefully looked over there, he saw that it was Su Hao, which he felt relieved.
Scared the hell out of this daddy.
Hold on...
How would I be in a hotel with Su Hao? I can't seem to recall anything at all? Damn, isn't this the pattern of being drugged? Who drugged me? Could it be...
Li Xin became even more terrified, "Su Hao, what have you done?"
Boom!
Su Hao kicked him off without holding back, "Why are you messing around early in the morning?"
"Oh." Li Xin quickly got up.
As soon as this fool Li Xin caused a scene, Su Hao no longer felt like sleeping. In fact, with his current strength, he was basically fine without sleep. However, after a large consumption of energy, Su Hao would only sleep to recover his energy as a habit. Yesterday, the battle in the ancient mansion had wasted a lot of his brain cells.
"Yesterday, you got hit till you fainted, so I dragged you back here." Su Hao explained in a casual tone.
"I fainted?" Li Xin thought in a blank expression and then patted his thigh, "I remember. I nearly got bitten by a big dog, and then you saved me!"
"..."
Su Hao began to sweat. That guy, how far did he go erasing his memories?
"Could it be that I got scared by that big dog and fainted?"
Li Xin wasn't feeling great, "I am a protagonist. How could I be scared like that?! I should be fighting heroically and fearlessly. This isn't logical! Did you really see me get scared and faint by that big dog? It must be false, right? Even a world esper won't be able to scare me till I faint!"
Li Xin stared at Su Hao in anticipation as he was looking forward to a different answer.
"Cough, cough." Su Hao coughed for a second, "When I saw you, you were already unconscious."
"It turned out to be true." Li Xin rubbed his temples in pain.
Su Hao felt a bit guilty. Brother, just bear with it. This explanation is for your own good. However, this guilt of Su Hao finally went numb after Li Xin kept mumbling for an hour or so.
"I am planning to go back to Jianghe City. Are you following me?" Su Hao helplessly dragged Li Xin, who was mumbling.
"Jianghe City?" Li Xin was startled, "No, I won't go! I just left! Of course, I won't go back. Later, my dad will catch me, and I will just end up as a fat puppet. My adventure hasn't even started yet."
"Adventure?"
Oh yeah, now only he recalled.
Yesterday, Li Xin said that he came to Huangliang City for the sake of adventuring, but his memory of yesterday had been erased, which was why Li Xin had forgotten about it and thought that he hadn't started it.
"Then, where are you planning to go?" Su Hao was curious.
"I will explore around Huangliang City. Dad said that I would be able to find an opportunity here or something. I am not sure what he meant by that anyway." Li Xin muttered.
Su Hao was stunned. Li Xin's father was an esper with a luck talent. Since he said that Li Xin's opportunity is here, it must have been right then. What a pity, at first, he planned to bring Li Xin along. Although this guy is a huge trouble to deal with, he did invite all sorts of mysterious things, extreme luck, and also great in stirring things.
Advantages and disadvantages.
Good luck and misfortune...
However, since Li Xin had his own path, Su Hao wouldn't intervene.
"Then we shall meet in the future." Su Hao patted his shoulder and said with a sincere tone, "You better be careful of your own strength. If you can't beat it, run. Even if you're capable of beating it, always prepare an escape path."
"Yes!" Li Xin kept that in mind.
After leaving the hotel, those two parted ways.
Su Hao rushed to take an aircraft back to Jianghe City. Before leaving, he vaguely felt like he had forgotten to explain something, but couldn't seem to recall it. After inspecting several times and ensured that there wasn't any problem, he then left. Just after he left, he recalled something.
That lean man's memory erasure, there won't be any problem, right?
One needs to know that Li Xin isn't any ordinary man!
Su Hao was faintly concerned about that.
Well, this guy is so thick faced that it's unbelievable. The first time Black Moon was used, he almost exhausted all the power of this powerful origin technique before finally being put to sleep, but thinking of that lean man who strengthened the effect once more before leaving to clearly remove the memory, Su Hao was relieved.
As Li Xin also believed that he fainted after getting chased by a big dog, Su Hao felt relieved even more. Well, that person had been erasing memory for so many years. He's a professional, how could there be any issues?
Thinking of this, Su Hao was truly relieved.
But he was clueless that the real problem wasn't the erasure of the memory, but the fact that Su Hao casually reminded him. Soon after Su Hao left, Li Xin went on berserk.
"I got scared till fainted?"
"I can't tolerate this! This daddy is after all a legend in the future!"
This guy couldn't sit still with the fact that he got scared till fainted. As a young man with ambitions and aspirations, he felt that such a ridiculous fact that he got scared till fainted shouldn't be associated with him. Although it had already happened... then he needs to fix this.
"What should I do?" Li Xin gritted his teeth, "Isn't it just a damn big dog? This daddy will find him again! I don't believe that you can scare me till faint for the second time!"
One had to admit that Li Xin is someone who is resilient.
From the time when he painstakingly trained, one can clearly see that he had a strong determination.
Thus, Li Xin ran out of Huangliang City in high spirits and resumed his old business at the place shown by the compass, digging the wall!
Without any surprise, only one minute later, a wolf appeared.
"Howl~!"
It was a roar.
That giant wolf stared at Li Xin fiercely and then charged here with an intention to bite him.
"Damn, it's so huge!" Li Xin exclaimed. Swallowing a bit of his saliva, he resisted his urge to run. With a prideful expression, he said, "Look, this young master didn't get scared and faint."
However, when that wolf's mouth reached here, Li Xin's face finally changed.
Run?
When he knew that there was no escape, Li Xin suddenly came across an idea and threw the compass on his hand subconsciously, and then... the wolf went lifeless. Its eyes flickered, and then it rushed back at the speed of lighting to get the compass and run back here.
Looking at the giant wolf putting the compass in front of him, Li Xin was frozen. Then...
"Phew!"
He threw out the compass again.
Swish!
That giant wolf sprang out, quickly went to get the compass, and placed it in front of Li Xin with satisfaction.
Li Xin was completely dumbfounded. It took him a few seconds before he regained his senses and then patted his thigh, "This is not a wolf, but a husky!"
