Too Many Reincarnators? I Bring the National Team to the Field - Chapter 52

Sheng An raised her eyebrows.

Qi Lingwu asked in confusion, “Who is Zhang Jialiang?”

“The one who reported Long Tianyu,” Sheng An chuckled lightly. “That guy is pretty bold. I guess he couldn’t hold back and started getting curious about Superpower Users again.”

“How did he find us?” Qi Lingwu asked.

This was a crucial question.

Hao Jingye looked a bit helpless as well. “After we sent him back to Shi City that day, he kept being curious about us and Long Tianyu, even wandering around with his phone from time to time-”

“Hmm?”

“This morning, he noticed the news about the road being blocked. He snuck over to the area, used his phone to film the drone squad, immediately realized something big was happening, and rushed straight to the Beijing Public Security Bureau Headquarters.”

Hao Jingye spread his hands. “The people below didn’t know much. When he mentioned something about special abilities, they reported it to Team Leader Qiu. Group A thought it was important information, so they brought him to the camp…”

This really was…

Dramatic.

Zhang Jialiang had already taken photos of Long Tianyu, which Sheng An and her team had seen, but Group A didn’t know. They thought they’d discovered another Superpower User and brought him in for questioning.

Then they realized this was already Group B’s information, and the person was actually looking for Sheng An.

One could imagine Qiu Yu’s expression at the time.

Sheng An found it amusing too.

She stepped outside. “Since he’s here, let’s bring him along to visit our injured.”

What Zhang Jialiang was curious about was Long Tianyu.

Let him see for himself.

*

Long Tianyu lay on the bed with a pale face, gritting his teeth and looking extremely frustrated.

Qi Lingwu’s aim had been precise.

His wounds weren’t fatal, and wouldn’t even leave any aftereffects.

But-

Damn, it hurt!

He couldn’t understand it. Victory had been within his grasp, everything was going according to plan, so how did so many people suddenly appear and catch him?

Where did those people come from?

How did they know?

Most importantly, who was the man who pinned him to the ground with six shots at the end?!

He was still using his Flash Step Ability-how could the man shoot so accurately?

He was such a powerful Flash Step Ability Awakened, an invincible Chosen Son-how could he be caught so easily?

With the state machinery so strong, how was he supposed to rule and dominate in the future!

Thinking of this, Long Tianyu grew angrier and slapped the bed.

But he forgot his hand was injured, and the pain made him grimace, feeling even worse.

“Aow-” Long Tianyu cried out in pain.

Damn!

Even the bed was bullying him!

Just then, footsteps sounded outside, accompanied by a man’s pleading voice.

“Team Leader Sheng, please let me join! Even if it’s logistics-no, even if it’s just sweeping the floor, as long as you let me join!”

“Why do you want to join us so badly? This isn’t an easy place to be.”

“But it’s special! This is a Superpower Group!”

Long Tianyu hadn’t figured it out yet when, in the next moment, Sheng An, Qi Lingwu, Hao Jingye, and Zhang Jialiang came in.

Zhang Jialiang still wanted to keep pleading.

Sheng An raised her hand, and he immediately shut up, staying quiet.

As soon as they entered, Long Tianyu changed his expression, hiding his pain and frustration, and put on a proud, nonchalant look.

Sheng An glanced at him. “You wanted to see me?”

Long Tianyu lifted his chin and smirked. “You all worked so hard to catch me. Shouldn’t you be the ones wanting to see me? Go ahead, what’s your real goal? What’s your attitude toward us?”

He tried to cross his legs, but his foot hurt too much. As soon as he moved, he put it back down, not daring to use force.

Then, feeling that lying down lacked presence, he tried to sit up.

Aow-

It hurt!

As he moved his hand, Long Tianyu almost cried out.

Sheng An: “Hurts a lot?”

“How could it? I’m a Superpower User!” Long Tianyu smiled faintly, propping himself up slowly, his arm trembling with pain and cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. “It doesn’t hurt, not at all.”

“Really doesn’t hurt?” Sheng An tilted her head.

Long Tianyu had already sat up, released the strength in his hands, and relaxed.

He still lifted his chin, looked at Sheng An, and smiled. “Of course. You ordinary people shouldn’t underestimate us Awakened. Once awakened, we exist on another level. No matter how strong your armed forces are, in the future-”

Sheng An handed him an apple, her smile innocent. “Since it doesn’t hurt, have an apple.”
Long Tianyu: “…”

He clenched his teeth tightly, his hand trembling as he reached out to take the apple.

The moment the apple touched his hand, pain shot through him so sharply he wanted to pound the bed, but he forced himself to endure it, blue veins bulging on his forehead.

With great effort, he brought the apple to his mouth and took a fierce bite.

Zhang Jialiang averted his gaze, his expression complicated. “Does it really not hurt? Why are you sweating so much?”

Just watching made him wince.

“It doesn’t hurt.” Long Tianyu smiled faintly, blood seeping from his palm and staining the gauze. “Not at all. I’m just hot, yes, it’s because I’m hot.”

Hao Jingye instinctively glanced out the window. It was raining today, colder than usual.

Long Tianyu shifted the topic, smiling at Sheng An. “Miss, what’s your name?”

Qi Lingwu shot him a glance, his eyes icy.

Sheng An folded her arms, her phoenix eyes narrowing slightly. “What is it you really want to ask?”

Long Tianyu paused for a moment.

Then the fake smile vanished from his face, replaced by seriousness. “I want to know, how much does the state actually know? And how did you discover us?”

“First question, the state knows a lot. Whatever you know, we know too.” Sheng An smiled, half amused.

“Impossible!” Long Tianyu raised his voice.

Sheng An glanced at him. “Nothing’s impossible. You’re not unique.”

Not unique!

Those four words were a heavy blow to someone who considered himself the Chosen Son.

Sheng An said, “We’ll talk about the first question later. I have something to ask you too.”

Long Tianyu immediately pressed, “What about the second question?”

He had underestimated the machinery of the state.

The power of the state could probably investigate him thoroughly, but the state couldn’t possibly watch every single person all the time.

They must have noticed something first before investigating him.

How did they discover him?

Long Tianyu couldn’t figure it out no matter how hard he thought.

At his words, Sheng An chuckled softly. “You can ask him yourself.”

She nodded toward Zhang Jialiang.

Originally, she hadn’t planned to let them meet, but Zhang Jialiang insisted.

Anyway, with Sheng An here, Long Tianyu wouldn’t dare do anything to Zhang Jialiang. It could count as a reward for Zhang Jialiang reporting to the state.

Zhang Jialiang instinctively straightened his back.

From the moment he entered the hospital room, he’d been curiously watching Long Tianyu.

-So this was the “ghost” he saw that day?

Long Tianyu looked at him too.

Such an ordinary man, clearly without awakened powers, not at all like Sheng An or Qi Lingwu, who were obviously extraordinary at a glance.

Just a regular college student.

Someone Long Tianyu had never paid attention to, in either his past or present life.

He frowned. “How did you discover me?”

Zhang Jialiang replied honestly, “I saw you.”

Long Tianyu: “???”

His confusion and bewilderment were written all over his face.

He could flash-how could anyone see him??

Zhang Jialiang pulled out his phone, walked over, and showed him four photos. “Look, I even took pictures. I almost thought you were a ghost.”

Long Tianyu: “!!!”

He stared in disbelief, eyes wide.

In that instant, Zhang Jialiang, quick as lightning, reached out and touched him. The move was so fast Long Tianyu didn’t even react, and with considerable force, it left Long Tianyu stunned.

Before Long Tianyu could recover, Zhang Jialiang turned and ran to the door, unable to hide his excitement.

“Wait for us outside. We’ll find you in a bit,” Sheng An nodded.

Zhang Jialiang nodded vigorously.

He touched him!

He’d touched a Superpower User, made contact with a Superpower User!

Would he become different from now on?

Zhang Jialiang’s face was full of excitement.

Long Tianyu’s hand was already hurting, and after being slapped hard, the pain nearly made him cry out.

Coming back to his senses, he ignored the pain and raised his voice: “No, impossible! How could you see me? I checked carefully at the time-there was no one, absolutely no one!”

He couldn’t believe it.

Just as Zhang Jialiang was about to leave, he suddenly turned back and asked, “What phone do you use?”

Long Tianyu didn’t understand why he was asking this.

But he still frowned and replied perfunctorily, “Apple.”

Zhang Jialiang waved his phone, grinning brightly-

“I’m far, far ahead.”
