Chapter 13 - 009 PeekingThrough Restraint Sensing, Ji Minghuan caught a glimpse of the scene in the living room on the first floor and immediately confirmed an astonishing fact: Gu Qiye was none other than the renowned Mutant of Li Jing City - "Blue Arc".
A series of panels then popped up, flickering on and off in the pitch-black room.
[Main Quest 1 complete: Explore what secrets your "brother" Gu Qiye is hiding.]
[Quest Rewards Obtained: 1 Split Point, 1 Skill Point, 1 attribute point.]
[Main Quest 1 Updated: Establish a cooperative relationship with the Mutant "Blue Arc" to expand your network within the Mutants Association.]
In the darkness, Ji Minghuan temporarily ignored the panels that popped up in front of him, simply moving them aside, and then used Restraint Sensing to focus on monitoring Gu Qiye's every word and action.
Even though Gu Qiye was on the first floor and Ji Minghuan was in a room on the second floor, he did not act rashly, maintaining a state of stillness as much as possible to avoid making any sound — after all, he couldn't ascertain how sharp the hearing of a top-tier Superpower User like Gu Qiye might be. He might hear even the click of the room light being turned on from downstairs.
"He got away again, this is the second time..." In the living room, Gu Qiye sat against the wall.
He placed his metal helmet beside him, bandaging the wound on his neck as he muttered, "It's really hard to catch him... No wonder it took the neighboring Mutant division so many years without catching him. It seems I've overestimated myself."
Speaking of which, Gu Qiye sneered at himself sarcastically, "Since he's come to our territory, it's going to be busy from now on."
Ji Minghuan recorded Gu Qiye's mutterings through Restraint Sensing, his nimble eyes glancing in the darkness as he speculated:
"An Superpower user criminal who came from the neighboring territory? Gu Qiye's strength is well-known, and very few Superpower user criminals can defeat him... So, it must've been that 'Ghost Bell' mentioned in the news earlier. The host did say Ghost Bell had just arrived in this city, challenging the Mutants Association; Gu Qiye being 'Blue Arc', the representative of the Li Jing branch, is naturally the one assigned to investigate."
He looked at Gu Qiye's injuries, making another judgment: "It seems like they just fought, Gu Qiye was no match for his opponent and had no choice but to retreat home."
Thinking of this, Ji Minghuan opened his phone,
The next moment, Ji Minghuan suddenly stretched out his right hand toward the mask, the dark restraint strips extending forward like bandages, clambering to the edge of the mask, wrapping it tightly before pulling it toward him.
Holding the mask in his palm, he stood up and walked toward the door.
Passing by the wardrobe, he used the restraint belt to pull up the coat placed at the bottom, then slowly left the room.
