There's definitely something wrong with this murder mystery game-Chapter 374 - 329 Su Xing_2
Xu Shuo couldn’t reach any of his companions, and Cheng Can felt a bit panicky, but his thoughts became clear at that moment.
"Could it be that the opposing faction is actually Long Group? After all, they invented spatial jump skills, and they must be planning to use it, so our mission was to destroy this technology?" Cheng Can murmured softly to himself.
"But what if, actually, Paradise Bird also wants to use this technology for something else?" A mocking voice came from the side.
"That makes sense, but..."
Cheng Can was talking to himself when he suddenly stiffened mid-sentence, then hastily retreated backward with Xu Shuo, looking both alert and astonished at the person who had suddenly popped their head out from behind the wall.
Beneath the black, tousled hair were a pair of gem-green eyes, shining brilliantly in the dim light of the wall, with a smile that was extremely radiant.
Cheng Can recognized the person. "Bai Mufei!"
Luo Kun suddenly withdrew his smile and looked at him grimly, "Hand over the person you’re holding."
The attitude of the other party also turned Cheng Can’s face grim - Bai Mufei was not only a psychic but also had the powerful ability of molecular manipulation, and if he was a player, he would have even more tricks up his sleeve.
Now carrying his incapacitated junior, it would probably be impossible to fight without compromising the safety of both of them at this moment.
They couldn’t confront him head-on, they had to evade.
There were other members of the New An Bureau in the Technology Building.
With one hand supporting the person, Cheng Can hesitated slightly while his other hand, hidden by his side, gently pressed against the wall he was leaning against.
But just then, as if feeling bad about his earlier demeanor, the young man opposite him smiled a friendly and sincere smile again, saying, "Hey, I didn’t mean to scare you, don’t be so tense, I’ve already surrendered, now we’re on the same team!"
Cheng Can forced a smile... Who’s on your crazy team!
For some reason, looking at this person, Cheng Can felt even more uneasy inside than when he first saw Xu Shuo.
He had an intuition that this person was not easy to deal with.
But it was indeed not a good time to fight.
So he pretended to be half-believing and wary, "Even if we are temporarily allies now, we have no full reason to trust you. You can participate in the action, but it’s best to keep your distance."
Luo Kun blinked and obediently took two steps back, "Okay, but it seems that your companion has suffered mental shock. You know I’m a psychic, I can help him."
Help? An enemy faction offering to help?
Even though what the other party said seemed reasonable and they might indeed have the ability to help, Cheng Can still took it as a complete load of nonsense, not believing a single punctuation mark!
"You don’t need to worry about my companion. If you want to cooperate, then you’d better behave yourself," he said expressionlessly.
"..."
Luo Kun didn’t speak again, just stood two meters away, staring straight at them, those green eyes piercing and crystal clear in the dim light of the wall, exuding sharpness.
Being stared at like that felt chilling.
Cheng Can even had the feeling that the other party could lash out at any moment.
The atmosphere in the corner fell into a bizarre calm, and the noises of the press conference hall, with all kinds of shouts and curses, couldn’t affect them.
Even a sudden thunderous explosion from who knows where didn’t break the eerie sensation here, nor did it attract their attention.
Over there, a commotion had erupted.
Excited footsteps, panicked screams, and the shadows of a chaotic crowd, like a disaster movie’s background canvas.
Cheng Can leaned the young man in the corner with his back sticking to the wall covered in cold sweat, but he maintained a composed and calm exterior.
Internally he was cursing: Look, look, staring for what! Issue your darn skill quickly!
Ah, it’s so infuriating.
"Boom!"
Suddenly another violent explosion sounded, this time shaking the entire building. The robust mechanical walls trembled faintly, and the milky light on the walls flickered as if it had been hit.
Some people felt a surge of excitement, thinking it was the military outside trying to breach the building to rescue them.
That kind of noise must be from a cannon’s bombardment, right?
Cheng Can stared at the wall, also feeling a bit of surprise, because when he had stealthily tested it earlier, he found that he seemed unable to pass through this wall.
But now he was confident!
If he could seize the moment when the energy vanished, he could instantly pass through the wall and leave this place!
Still, he needed to be wary of Bai Mufei.
Just as he prepared to act, the flickering light of the wall stabilized again, the faint energy swirling within the already tough mechanical walls.
Cheng Can: "..."
He had only thought for about five seconds, was it too much to ask for a bit of opportunity?
"Aww~"
Suddenly, a teasing sound came from the person opposite, smiling with amusement at the corner of his mouth, "Looks like you missed the chance, huh?"
Cheng Can remained unmoved, "What are you talking about?"
Luo Kun stared at him intently, moving forward to press him, "I’ve heard that your companion’s ability is instantaneous movement. Why don’t you just hand him over to me? Once he wakes up, all three of us can leave this place, right?"
"Oh? And why should I trust you? I’ve heard that psychics can manipulate others," Cheng Can darkened his expression.
"But we are allies now!" Find your next read at novelbuddy

"Didn’t I also mention just now to keep your distance?"
"..."
At times, the young man made no effort to hide his emotions, impatience flashing across his face, and those green pupils in the shadows deep and darkened.
