New Order Plan
Chapter 3 Rainy Day
The headlights of passing vehicles shone through the glass, casting intermittent light and shadow on Jiang Qingshan's sharply defined face.
He clasped his hands together in silence for a moment, then, seeing Xiao Tian's serious expression, couldn't help but tease, "Are you worried about me?"
"Nonsense! I'm worried about myself. It's all because of that lousy contract of yours. If you die, I'll die too."
Xiao Tian's expression changed, he tightened his clothes, and complained indignantly, "You bastard, you've really ruined my life!"
Jiang Qingshan took a sip of coffee, choosing to pretend he didn't hear it.
Symbiotic Contract – this is a unique ability he awakened three years ago when he faced a life-or-death situation.
He can share all the capabilities of the contracting party by signing a contract.
For example, he, a mental-type ability user, can now use Xiao Tian's lightning-type ability.
But at the same time, he will live and die with Xiao Tian. It seems that they have two heads, but in reality, they only have one life.
pat.
A raindrop landed on the windshield.
Jiang Qingshan glanced outside and, without realizing it, the sky was already filled with swirling clouds.
Street vendors were hurriedly packing up their stalls, and pedestrians were also rushing about.
"Why did the weather suddenly change? The forecast didn't say it would rain tonight. I'm going to be so sleepy." Xiao Tian said in surprise.
Jiang Qingshan acted as if he hadn't heard.
Yes, things have changed.
The successive murders of former employees of the General Intelligence Agency are by no means accidental coincidences.
Who is behind this catastrophic event? Is it from within or outside?
he does not know.
But a great storm begins with a small ripple, and he was certain that something big had happened at the General Intelligence Bureau.
Could it be related to the operation three years ago?
Will I also become a target of that catastrophic variant?
A series of questions swirled in Jiang Qingshan's mind, bringing back memories.
Three years ago, after completing his undercover mission, he prepared to lead his team to evacuate Independent Star City.
But on the eve of their evacuation, they suddenly received an emergency order from the General Administration.
An Imperial ecologist who was conducting academic exchanges in an independent star city was secretly recruited by other undercover agents and needs their assistance to return to Earth.
In order to complete this final mission successfully, he and his four team members made a meticulous division of labor and planning.
As captain and shooter, he was responsible for providing cover and guarding from a high vantage point near the designated location.
Deputy Captain Lin Baiyun went to pick up the person, while the other three team members waited on different retreat routes.
They thought everything would go smoothly, but unexpectedly, the person who had turned the expert against them betrayed them.
Lin Baiyun was immediately surrounded by the security forces of Independent Star City.
In that instant, her trembling voice came through the communicator.
"Shoot now, don't let me fall into their hands."
Bang!
Xiao Tian was fast asleep when his head hit the car window, waking the two of them up with a start.
A light rain was falling outside, and before we knew it, it was already late at night.
Just then, the vehicle's defense communication device suddenly rang.
"Attention all units, a hazard has been detected. The last monitored location is inside the elevator of Unit 1, Building 2, Changsheng Garden."
"Target confirmed to be a serial killer mutated type, water-based, energy level two. All reconnaissance teams, proceed immediately!"
Xiao Tian's ears twitched slightly, and he involuntarily sat up straight.
where?
Unit 1, Building 2, Changsheng Garden?
He looked at Jiang Qingshan with some surprise.
"drive."
Jiang Qingshan frowned.
Xiao Tian quickly started the car and sped towards the target location.
Upon arrival, two police cars were already parked in front of the apartment building, and several police officers from the local police station were carefully guarding the entrance.
The two hurriedly got out of the car, and Jiang Qingshan quickly stepped forward to ask, "Where is the target located?"
The officer saluted and said, "The elevator stopped on the eighth floor."
Jiang Qingshan and Xiao Tian exchanged a knowing glance and quickly went up the stairs.
Eighth floor, room 803.
The door lay flat on the floor, the living room lights were on, and a monster in a suit and tie stood in front of the coffee table.
With an ape's head and a human body, white hair and blue skin, its sharp, hairy claws are holding a photograph and comparing it with a wedding photo on the wall.
Suddenly, it glanced to the side and sensed a human presence.
"My luck isn't so good tonight," Jiang Qingshan said, standing at the door and sizing up the other person.
Several golden blood vessels appeared in his eyes, and he had already foreseen the other party's next move.
This is his psychic ability—Insight.
"Yeah, it's surprising that you're not home at this time. Maybe you've gone out for some alone time with your partner."
The monster shook its head, then suddenly raised its hand to gather water, condensing it into a water blade that it hurled at the two of them.
Jiang Qingshan was prepared and used his telekinesis to control the door to defend himself as the other party made their move.
With a deafening thud, the stainless steel door folded in half and crashed heavily to the ground after losing control.
The monster didn't want to get entangled with the two, so it feinted and then took the opportunity to jump out of the window and escape.
Jiang Qingshan followed without hesitation and jumped from the eighth floor.
As he was about to land, he concentrated his mental energy to give himself a levitation cushion.
"Huh? What should I do then? Do I have to jump too?"
Xiao Tian's scream came from above: "Here I come! Jiang Zi, you better catch me!"
Jiang Qingshan smirked, glanced at the monster that was about to run away, and simply threw Xiao Tian, who was about to land, over there.
The monster caught sight of Xiao Tian rushing towards it, its eyes flashing with murderous intent. It turned and unleashed two water blades.
He thought he could hit the target with one strike, but unexpectedly, Jiang Qingshan used his telekinesis to make Xiao Tian do a somersault in the air and easily dodge the attack.
"Still trying to run?"
Xiao Tian roared, slamming his right fist, crackling with ball-shaped lightning, into the ground: "Electrical Domain, Activate!"
"Holy crap, no..."
Before Jiang Qingshan could finish speaking, his whole body suddenly stiffened, and he fell backward.
The electric current surged across the ground with the rainwater, instantly extinguishing all the streetlights in the entire residential area.
The vehicles parked nearby exploded with loud crackling sounds and billowed thick smoke.
Xiao Tian didn't hear Jiang Qingshan's voice at all, wiped the rain off his face and stood up handsomely.
But upon closer inspection, the monster had vanished without a trace.
Looking up, they saw a huge double-layered bubble floating in mid-air, and the monster was safely inside it.
Xiao Tian was immediately dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Isn't this guy a water-type?
How can it fly?!
Just as Xiao Tian was stunned, several water blades carrying arcs of electricity descended from the sky, slashing directly at Jiang Qingshan, who had been electrocuted and knocked to the ground.
Xiao Tian turned his head and glanced over, his heart skipped a beat.
Without a second thought, he turned and ran back, unleashing a lightning barrier with all his might to defend himself.
The water blade exploded upon contact, shattering the barrier at the same time. Caught off guard, Xiao Tian was thrown flat on his back by the impact.
He rolled on the ground, then pulled Jiang Qingshan up, his face showing an expression of utter disbelief.
Both being at energy level two, and with electric abilities being twice as powerful as water abilities, it's utterly illogical that this monster could pierce through his electric barrier in a single strike.
"Jiang Zi... is this correct?"
"No, that's not quite right. I think I just saw myself looking too babyish."
Jiang Qingshan stared in the direction where the monster had disappeared, stretched his aching legs, and then swiftly kicked Xiao Tian in the buttocks.
Xiao Tian chuckled somewhat sheepishly, "I was in such a rush just now that I forgot you're not immune to electricity."
"I think you've lost your mind."
Jiang Qingshan said irritably.
He can share Xiao Tian's electric abilities, but he cannot be immune to them like Xiao Tian.
This guy's hair is all curled from the electric shock.
"I never expected the monster's target to be this young couple."
Xiao Tian stared at Jiang Qingshan with a strange expression and said, "This is too much of a coincidence. If you hadn't taken on this job as a side business, those two would definitely be dead tonight."
Jiang Qingshan remained silent, a turbulent undercurrent swirling in his deep eyes.
Such precise serial killings seem like a cover-up, and it's clear that the mastermind behind it was in a great hurry.
So, what exactly happened at the General Intelligence Agency?
"Quickly report the situation to the old man."
Jiang Qingshan glanced at the lit eighth floor, then lowered his head and went back inside to take shelter from the rain.
Xiao Tian, chasing after him guiltily, said, "Why don't you do it?"
"Did I damage my phone's battery? Did I break my car's battery? Besides, I've already been suspended."
"..."
Jiang Qingshan took off his soaked coat and sat down against the wall to rest.
He had used up too much energy using his powers, leaving him feeling drowsy and exhausted.
A moment later, the support team arrived one after another. Xiao Tian borrowed a defense communication device and quickly reported the situation to Director Bai Shouzheng.
A moment later, he sat back down next to Jiang Qingshan, looking dejected.
"Oh no, my salary is gone. I'm going to be eating dirt next month. Jiang Zi, you'd better give your brother a hand."
"I can teach you a technique for extracting precious metals from hydrated calcium silicate through a chemical reaction. Would you like to learn?"
"You have this skill? I'd love to learn it!"
I'll teach you tomorrow.
Jiang Qingshan casually took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
Xiao Tian wisely snapped his fingers, releasing an electric arc that precisely ignited the flame.
"That monster isn't interested in you. It seems you're not their target. We can relax now."
Jiang Qingshan took a deep breath, exhaled smoke, and said quietly, "But I'm very interested in it now."
