15: Chapter 15 Two A-level big shots are following?

Su Yun walked out of the school, having agreed with Chu Youwei that she would wait for him at the Library in the afternoon.

"Su Yun, stop right there."

Su Yun stopped.

He turned his head back.

Chu Youwei stood three steps away, her high ponytail swaying in the sunlight.

She had her hands in her school uniform pockets, staring into Su Yun's eyes.

"How long are you going to keep pretending?" Chu Youwei asked straight to the point.

Su Yun sighed. "Pretending what? That I'm a good student who loves to study?"

"Don't change the subject." Chu Youwei took a step forward. "Today in the classroom, you were just too calm when facing that monster. I don't believe you're just brave."

"And, how exactly did you come up with those... absurd problem-solving methods?"

Su Yun took out his phone and lit up the screen to check the time.

Half-past eleven.

It was very close to the node in Su Yao's memory.

He didn't plan to waste time here.

"Watch more financial news and documentaries about black-hearted corporations. You'll find that the methods humans use to exploit their own kind are far richer than the pitiful imagination of Strange Tales."

Su Yun's tone was sincere. "The essence of capital is plunder; Strange Tales only know how to kill. Their scope is far too small. I was just using high-dimensional logic to crush low-dimensional logic."

Chu Youwei was stunned by this theory.

She actually felt it made some sense.

But she quickly snapped back.

"I don't believe it. You definitely have a secret. You don't even go home, and you want me to cover for you. Are you going to handle an abnormal incident again?"

As a collateral member of a Hidden Family, Chu Youwei was well-informed.

Actually, just now in the classroom, she had been secretly observing Su Yun's sister, Su Yao.

Looking at the crisp Investigation Bureau field uniform on Su Yao, Chu Youwei couldn't suppress the intense envy in her eyes.

Becoming an investigator who could face Strange Tales and protect the weak had always been her dream.

But what made her even more heart-stricken was the yellowed amulet Su Yao had shoved into Su Yun's hand before leaving.

Ordinary people might not see the clues, but Chu Youwei, relying on her Family's secret techniques, clearly sensed that the seemingly tattered talisman paper was harboring an extremely terrifying fluctuation of Mental Energy!

Even the high-ranking elders in her Hidden Family would absolutely not be able to draw that!

His sister was definitely not an ordinary field investigator; her strength was absolutely unfathomable!

Recalling Su Yun's abnormal performance—having no fluctuation of Mental Energy yet being able to manipulate a B-Level Weird Tale into self-destruction with mere words—Chu Youwei's heart accelerated.

Could it be that Su Yun's Family was some kind of terrifyingly deep-rooted Hidden Family?!

"I'm going to an internet cafe to play a couple of games to calm my nerves. Do you want to come along?"

Su Yun told a casual lie.

Chu Youwei frowned.

Of course, she wouldn't go to an internet cafe.

She was going straight to the Library to study.

Su Yun was right; only by immersing herself in the ocean of knowledge could she calm her mood.

"Su Yun, no matter who you really are, thank you for saving everyone today."

Chu Youwei's expression was serious.

"But the water in Linhai City is very deep. A lone Psionic User without a background can easily die without anyone knowing. If you need anything, you can ask me for help."

She handed over a pure black business card.

On it, there was only a gold-stamped "Chu" character and a string of numbers.

Su Yun took the business card and tucked it into his pocket. He turned and waved his hand.

"Sure. If I have trouble, I'll definitely come to you to borrow money."

Chu Youwei watched Su Yun's retreating figure.

Her heart was filled with curiosity.

She really wanted to open up Su Yun's household registration book and investigate him thoroughly.

...

On top of the department store across the street.

Two figures stood by the lightning rod, looking down at Su Yun on the street.

The two wore uniforms of gray trench coats.

On the left chest, a broken sun emblem was embroidered with gold thread.

"This is the target the Saintess wants us to focus on protecting? A seventeen-year-old high school student?"

The tall, thin man on the left spoke.

His name was Arbiter Qin Feng.

A Sanctuary Arbiter.

A-Level strength.

The burly man on the right was named Arbiter Lei Zhen, also A-Level.

He crossed his arms, his gaze like lightning.

"Watch your words. That is the biological son of the former Saintess."

Arbiter Lei Zhen's voice was low.

"We received a direct order from the Saintess and dropped our mission of suppressing the Abyss node on the front line to rush over here. There must be no mistakes."

Arbiter Qin Feng sneered.

"I know that, of course. But did you read the internal briefing from the Investigation Bureau? A B-Level Weird Tale, the Pseudo-Human Examination Room, appeared at the No. 2 Middle School this morning. This kid talked it into self-destruction."

Arbiter Lei Zhen's eyes became slightly grave.

"No fluctuation of Mental Energy, destroying a B-Level rule based solely on Mortal logic. Such a thing is not recorded in the archives of the Sanctuary. He is not simple."

"Forget it. I think it was just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse. Or perhaps that Pseudo-Human Examination Room was a defective product to begin with."

Arbiter Qin Feng shook his head.

"Besides, it's normal for the Bloodline of the Saintess to have some suppressive power against filth. That monster was probably scared into collapse by the hidden Bloodline aura on him."

Arbiter Lei Zhen did not refute this. This explanation was the most reasonable.

"Regardless. Our mission is to guard him without leaving his side."

Arbiter Lei Zhen stretched his neck.

"Linhai City hasn't been peaceful lately. The rats in the underground have all come out. Anyone who tries to touch him, kill without mercy."

The two leaped, jumping down from the hundred-story building.

Their bodies merged into the wind in mid-air, turning into two transparent ripples imperceptible to ordinary people, trailing far behind Su Yun.

On the street.

Su Yun walked to a vending machine and inserted coins to buy a can of iced cola.

Pulling the tab, bubbles surged.

He took a sip, and in the depths of his eyes, a pitch-black, profound glint flashed and vanished.

[Foolish Eye] activated.

The surrounding world rapidly faded in color in his eyes.

It turned into a structural diagram composed of lines and energy.

Fifty meters behind him, two extremely dazzling golden energy bodies were suspended in mid-air.

The light was pure, scorching, and carried a sacred aura that brooked no violation.

This was a polluting power completely different from Strange Tales.

A-Level.

And they were two full-state, offensive-oriented A-Level Psionic Martial Artists.

Su Yun withdrew his gaze and tilted his head to drink half the can of cola.

He casually tossed it into the sorting trash can nearby.

He turned and walked toward the nearest subway station.

In his field of vision, those two pure golden energy bodies maintained an absolute distance of fifty meters.

Not too far, not too close, completely synchronizing with his pace.

No Killing Intent.

Only an extremely strict defensive posture.

Su Yun had his hands in his school uniform pockets, not stopping his pace.

A-Level Psionic Martial Artists as full-time bodyguards.

This display was truly grand.

Which Family member sent them?

Su Yun glanced at his phone screen.

Eleven forty-five.

A trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes.

No time to play this tailing game here.

Sister Su Yao's memo clearly stated that at noon today, the s-class sequencing weapon [black day] would appear at the abandoned factory in the south of the city.

A group of desperadoes from the Salvation Society were entrenched there.

It was a real killing trap.

With Su Yao's current strength, trying to forcibly snatch this equipment would likely lead to her death.

The image of that severed arm from his dream last night would definitely repeat at noon today.

Su Yun had to rush there immediately.

But he absolutely could not bring these two A-Level bodyguards behind him.

Once he used the power of the Lord of Blind Idiot God to devour enemies at the abandoned factory, not only would he expose his bottom line in front of them, but the forces behind these two would also investigate his life inside out.

His stable days would be completely gone.

He had to shake them off.

Su Yun quickened his pace, walking into the large underground transportation hub ahead.

It was noon, and the underground passage was bustling with people.

In crowded places, the fluctuations of Mental Energy were extremely complex.

This formed a natural interference cover for the perception of high-level Psionic Users.

Su Yun wove through the crowd, specifically picking blind spots without cameras.

Arbiter Lei Zhen and Arbiter Qin Feng walked on the pedestrian bridge on the second floor of the mall, looking down to lock onto the teenager in the school uniform in the crowd.

Arbiter Qin Feng curled his lips. "This kid knows how to slip away. Lei, there are too many people here; our Mental Energy lock will be weakened by the Mental Energy of the civilians."

Arbiter Lei Zhen supported his hands on the railing. "Follow closely. He's just an ordinary high school student; he can't run. Do not release pressure to alarm the civilians."

In the crowd below.

Su Yun walked past a corner.

Beside it was a safety exit door with a "Under Maintenance" sign hanging on it.

He didn't pause at all, gripping the doorknob with his right hand and pushing it open directly.

Inside the door was a pitch-black equipment room.

The moment he turned around, the ability of the Lord of Blind Idiot God was activated.

He did not release destructive pollution, but simply emitted a trace of mental suggestion.

This suggestion spread through the air, extremely precisely disrupting the Mental Energy lock detection fifty meters away.

At the same time, several illusory purple-black tentacles emerged from the Void Realm.

The tentacles did not attack the target, but instead wrapped directly around Su Yun himself, swallowing and concealing his aura, body temperature, and even his physical presence.

On the second-floor pedestrian bridge.

Arbiter Lei Zhen stood up abruptly, his face changing drastically.

"Where is he?"

The clear coordinate that had just been locked in their Mental Energy grid had vanished into thin air.

There was no trace of any Psionic energy leakage, no fluctuations of spatial teleportation.

A living person had been completely erased from their perception.

Arbiter Qin Feng leaped down from the second floor in one step, landing directly in front of that safety exit door.

He pushed the door open fiercely.

It was empty. Only a few dust-covered exhaust fans were buzzing.

Arbiter Qin Feng turned his head, sweat seeping from his forehead. "Lei, the target is lost."

Arbiter Lei Zhen's face was gloomy to the extreme.

Two dignified Arbiters, while protecting a high school student without Psionic energy, had lost the person.

If the Saintess knew about this, even begging for death would be a luxury for them.

"Pull all the surveillance along the route." Arbiter Lei Zhen ordered through gritted teeth. "Turn this district upside down if you have to, but find him!"

At this moment.

Su Yun had long since left via the ventilation duct of the equipment room.

Walking to the ground, he hailed a taxi.

"Driver, abandoned factory in the south of the city. Drive fast, I'll pay extra."
