Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 357 - 352: Apprehending the Suspect

The sky above the base is very bright tonight.

Any slight movement can be seen clearly by anyone, especially by superpower users whose senses are dozens of times stronger than ordinary people.

But Hei Wu couldn’t see how Ji Ning took down the suspect.

This invisible power is the most terrifying thing.

Hei Wu thought of the secret archives he read years ago, which recorded many special and powerful superpowers.

He tried hard to match them with the ability Ji Ning used, but none seemed correct.

Invisible powers include air, wind, electromagnetic waves, special rays, etc. However, the use of each power is often accompanied by other phenomena, such as with Wind Ability, though it’s invisible, you can feel the movement and strength of the wind, the same with air, but the superpower Ji Ning used caused no energy fluctuations, as if it appeared out of the void.

Could she control particles invisible to the eyes?

Hei Wu thought of someone, and his scalp tingled a bit.

He stood by the flowerbed for a while, then walked straight to Ji Ning and bowed to her.

"Hello, I am Hei Wu, a member of the Black Group in the Special Ability Team. Can the suspect be handed over to us?"

Hei Qi, who followed, heard this, his eyes widened greatly, thinking inwardly: Was Hei Wu possessed by someone?

Ji Ning nodded slightly.

Only then did Hei Wu glance at Hei Qi.

The group quickly leaped onto the flowerbed and swiftly restrained the person on the ground.

Mantis, standing beside Ji Ning, lowered his voice, curiously asked Ji Ning: "Sister Ning, how did you find him? We used thermal sensors but couldn’t find anyone. What kind of superpower is this? How is it even stronger than Invisibility Superpower?"

Generally, Invisibility Superpower users, although their bodies can turn transparent, can’t hide their body heat. As long as you use a thermal sensor, you can find them, but this person simply disappeared without a trace.

Luckily, Ji Ning returned in time, or he really would have escaped.

Mantis’s question also piqued Hei Qi’s curiosity, slowing down his actions to catch the person, his ears perking up to listen closely.

A faint voice was heard saying two words: "Space."

"What? Space? How could it be Space Ability? Sister Ning, you’re not kidding, right?"

In the eyes of all superpower users, Space Ability is the weakest in the Control System, only useful for transport and hiding things.

Now Ji Ning said this person has Space Ability, it’s like a pig climbing a tree and dancing on it.

Ji Ning didn’t want to bother with him, her gaze turned to Hei Wu, who seemed as if he wanted to converse with her.

Finding and capturing a Space System user skilled in hiding is hell-level difficulty for others, but for her, it’s like a beginner’s tutorial.

However, there’s no need to tell outsiders these things.

Better to deal with this seemingly intelligent member of the Black Group.

"Anything else?"

Only then did Hei Wu speak: "Leader Ji, could you help us interrogate this person?"

Hei Wu’s words gave Ji Ning a bit of surprise, she raised an eyebrow to look at him twice, then nodded slightly.

Standing not far away, Hei Qi was again shocked by Hei Wu’s words, nearly slipping.

He abruptly looked back, glancing at Hei Wu several times in disbelief.

To see if he was swapped with someone else.

Hei Wu is a reserved person, always keeping a cold face that makes anyone feel he is unapproachable.

Usually, he likes to work alone unless it’s a mission like this.

But during tasks, he also prefers to do things by himself, especially during suspect interrogations, he hates others interfering.

So far, not a single tough suspect has lasted more than three days with him.

Who knew that after only one night of interrogation, he would seek outside assistance?

It’s simply big news!!!

Hei Qi swallowed his saliva, his eyes gleaming with gossip.

***

In the interrogation room —

The captured Space Ability user shrank back in fear on the chair, wishing to become an unnoticed quail. Compared to his previous arrogance, he now seemed to lack spine, unable to piece himself back together.

As a Space Ability user, in this environment, being able to grasp a bit of the true core of Space Power is a great talent.

Ji Ning felt somewhat sympathetic, so she didn’t have him wear the Suppressing Helmet.

Even so, this Space Ability user was still terrified, not even daring to glance at Ji Ning.

"Speak, what’s your plan?" Ji Ning’s tone was very calm, like casual chatting.

The Space Ability user trembled all over, immediately responding, fearing that if he delayed, Ji Ning would crush him to dust.

"Just... just... just to steal... steal something."

"Steal what?"

"I... don’t know... the employer said they would tell us what to steal once we reached the location."

Ji Ning was not surprised, Joe Lane is a very cautious person, able to lead people to infiltrate Jiuming Mountain during chaos to assassinate her.

Even if he hired people to steal weapons, he would never prematurely reveal his plan.

This person probably doesn’t even know who is behind his employer.

Ji Ning’s lips curved slightly as she continued to ask, "How do you contact your employer?"

"Encrypted communicator, the other person doesn’t know."

"Didn’t you know each other before?"

"Yes, we formed a temporary team for this mission."

"What superpower does the other person have?"

"Still not clear, we got caught too soon..."

"Where’s your communicator?"

"Des... destroyed..."

The Space Ability user said this, fearing Ji Ning would get angry, hurriedly explained, "The employer required it... they said... if caught, destroy the communicator first..."

Ji Ning chuckled, "Do you really believe he will save you?"

The Space Ability user showed a hint of guilt in his eyes, pretending not to understand Ji Ning’s words.

But Ji Ning asked again, "Did your employer tell you an escape method?"

Sweat on the Space Ability user’s forehead increased faster than when wearing the Suppressing Helmet, his hands anxiously gripping the fabric of his pants, feeling as if someone could see through him.

"I’m not very patient and don’t usually follow rules. The last person I interrogated still has over thirty steel needles in him..."

"I... I’ll tell... he... he said... as long as I last till the next morning without getting caught, someone would help me leave."

"What about your partner?"

The Space Ability user closed his eyes in despair.

"He said... if the mission fails, only full efforts would be made to save me out!"

Ji Ning glanced at Hei Wu beside her, seeing his face colder than before, sneered, "You really believed him..."

If she hadn’t come to Jiuming Mountain, if she weren’t so wary of Joe Lane, his plan would have succeeded by now.

Utilizing the connections between the West Continent envoy and smugglers, tying up Jiuming Mountain’s police force, then having a kidnapper team harass the people near the base to scatter Jiuming Mountain Base’s combat power and security, finally allowing a high-level Space Ability user to infiltrate the base to steal weapons.

Unfortunately, she unexpectedly came to Jiuming Mountain, though Joe Lane tried to hold her back, he underestimated her abilities and vigilance, inadvertently exposing his purpose early.

Presumably, Joe Lane must really hate her now.
