Regarding the matter of awakening lightning abilities after transformation

"Go back and get some rest..." When they reached the bottom of the apartment building, the car door opened automatically, and Gu Chengyan slowly walked towards the stairwell.

Su Wanxi leaned back in her seat, her gaze towards the girl filled with complex emotions.

...If it were a crack, she could easily navigate it, but Gu Cheng's current situation is far more complicated than a crack.

Chapter 115, Section 117: A Tacit Understanding

"Bang!" A crisp impact sound came from the dimly lit room. A half-dented metal bottle cap slowly rolled on the ground, while a little white foam flowed out.

The tool used to open the lid was a silver-gray wrench, which extended upwards along the metal surface, transforming into dry, rough skin and muscle.

In the blink of an eye, the metal object flowed and reshaped, eventually becoming a man's hand.

He brought the bottle to his lips and gulped down the beer, his large Adam's apple bobbing up and down with each swallow.

"Cough cough..." The man placed the empty beer bottle next to the bed, where several cases of empty beer bottles, all of them Langhua beer, were already there.

"Mr. Li will be coming today." Xu Bai leaned against the edge of the bed, talking to himself while looking at the hotel wall.

"When?" A figure suddenly appeared on the milky white wall. Mu Taofang frowned and walked up to Xu Bai.

Her entire body blends into her surroundings, and she is not easily distinguishable without careful observation.

"Cancel the ability first..." Xu Bai rubbed his forehead, seemingly somewhat listless. The next second, Mu Taofang recovered from her dazed state, revealing her original attire.

"I sent him the hotel's furnishings and exact location at 1 p.m. this afternoon."

"How is he going to get here..." Mu Taofang's words were barely out of her mouth when, like a pebble thrown into water, an irregular ripple spread through the room.

"They're here..." The ripple condensed and took shape, transforming into a blue gate of light.

The first person to pass through the portal was a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. He was tall and slender, wearing a simple gray coat, with jet-black hair and a straight nose.

Soon, two more men dressed similarly emerged from the azure light gate.

If Qi Bei were present, he could easily recognize the identities of the latter two: Zhan Taiyi and Li Wenhai.

"Because Mr. Liao wishes to meet sooner, our meeting has been moved up." The portal ceased operation, collapsing into a winding, twisting spatial rift. After a period of unstable contraction, it vanished into light and dissipated into the air. Li Wenhai looked around, ensuring the scene was at least nine-tenths similar to the one previously sent.

“Not bad...it seems I’ve disturbed your lunch…” The leading man smiled slightly, his eyes suddenly sharpening.

The five awakened individuals sat around the dining table, and Xu Bai recounted the general process since entering Lanjiang.

"So... you've been assigned to Group C, and there's a member named Zhang Yizhe..." Liao Xiuran tapped the table lightly, his gaze lingering briefly on the empty beer bottle beside the bed.

"Yes." Xu Bairu adjusted his glasses with an air of refinement, his face showing no trace of alcoholism.

"Zhang Yizhe...I think I've heard that name before."

“The Zhang family of Beidu, Zhang Yizhe.” Noticing Liao Xiuran’s confusion, Mu Taofang quickly added.

"Tsk... the Zhang family..." The man rested his chin on his hand, looking thoughtful. If the plan above succeeds, the Zhang family might not necessarily be an obstacle...

After a moment's thought, Liao Xiuran snapped his fingers at Li Wenhai: "The original plan remains unchanged. After the meeting, go back and report immediately."

"Yes." Li Wenhai nodded, his tone humble.

There are six Awakened Ones appointed in Lanjiang, among whom Su Wanxi possesses the strongest abilities, including "gravity manipulation"...

For this operation, the higher-ups provided detailed personnel information for Lanjiang City, and the so-called plan was based on this intelligence.

......

"Good afternoon~" Gu Cheng greeted Su Wanxi with a smile after receiving a Type 95 rifle from the logistics department.

Su Wanxi stared at the girl for a while, then replied in a soft voice, "Good afternoon."

Is there something on my face...? Why are you staring at me like that...? Gu Cheng touched the long hair around her neck, completely baffled.

"Su Wanxi...is something the matter?" She filmed the video as requested as soon as she got up this morning, so there shouldn't be any problems.

"No... let's start training." Su Wanxi shook her head, not bringing up what happened last night.

If Gu Cheng had the memories of the early morning, her reaction would definitely not be like this... which means that the activities of her inner personality were not shared with her.

Su Wanxi pursed her cherry lips and subconsciously frowned.

Was it because her inner personality took control and refused to share... or was Gu Cheng simply unable to capture this memory due to sleep at that time...?

Damn it... why did she major in finance instead of psychology in college...?

While Su Wanxi was struggling with her thoughts and unable to concentrate on training, Gu Cheng had already taken a shooting stance and aimed at the bullseye.

"Gu Chengyan, is he still awake?"

"Hmm..." Gu Chengyan replied softly, but his mind was on something else.

Su Wanxi didn't mention what happened last night...

"Then pay attention to my movements..." Seeing Gu Cheng's seriousness, Gu Chengyan simply kept the matter to himself and pretended it had never happened.

......

After training ended, Gu Cheng stretched her sore neck and hung the assault rifle around her neck.

She practiced for more than three hours in total, but the time she spent controlling her body was no more than fifty minutes. Gu Chengyan took over nearly two and a half hours of training.

As for the result... although it's still not ideal, it's at least a slight improvement over yesterday...

"Well done, keep it up," Gu Cheng sighed softly, comforting her in her heart.

Gu Chengyan: "...I feel like you're mocking me."

"No." How could she have interpreted it as mockery...? Was it because she was used to being sarcastic and sarcastic...? The girl explained, somewhat speechless.

"Su Wanxi, shall we go back together?"

"Okay, let me finish firing the rest of the bullets." Su Wanxi noticeably increased her firing speed, and Gu Cheng took the initiative to stand aside and observe the ring count.

Eight bullets, hitting almost 75 rings... Compared to this score, the two of them together would be easily defeated.

"Look at them," Gu Cheng said to Gu Chengyan with a look of disappointment, to which the latter simply gave a listless "Oh."

"Let's go." Su Wanxi took Gu Cheng's hand, not in the traditional way of interlocking their fingers, but by gently covering her from behind, with her fingertips slipping through the gap.

"Hmm." It's normal for girls to hold hands, Gu Cheng used this reason to convince herself, and over time she got used to it.

"Gu Cheng..."

"What's wrong?" Feeling the other person's fingers tighten slightly, Gu Cheng looked at Su Wanxi curiously.

"You said you needed Mr. Song's help... He's back."

There was really no need to bother him anymore, but Gu Cheng still pretended to be happy and said, "Then I'll find an opportunity to ask him."

Su Wanxi frowned slightly, swallowing almost imperceptibly: "If you really need help... it's best not to go to Mr. Song..."

Chapter 116, Section 118: It's All About Friendship

"If you really need help... it's best not to go to Mr. Song..."

After saying this, Su Wanxi turned her head to the side, and Gu Cheng could only see her long, shiny black hair and her slightly reddened ears hidden under her black hair.

"Why?" the girl asked.

Forging documents, undergoing physical examinations... After the transformation, Mr. Song helped her a lot...

Su Wanxi pursed her lips, her thin, cicada-wing-like eyelashes seeming to hold a wisp of sunset glow: "Mr. Song is also an elder I greatly respect... but..."

But... after a moment's pause, Su Wanxi lowered her eyelids silently, her gaze deepening, and inadvertently clenched Gu Cheng's jade-like hand until it ached.

"He is my elder, and also a high-ranking official in the Hermit Bureau..."

Voluntarily accepting "dream manipulation" is equivalent to handing over one's personal privacy completely to someone else. Su Wanxi trusted Song Shiyan's character, but as a high-ranking member of the Hermit Bureau, he actually considered far more factors than she imagined.

Gu Cheng's alternate personality possesses a B+ level of elimination ability, making her the first person in Chinese history with dual abilities, the significance of which is self-evident.

“...I understand.” Su Wanxi didn’t say it explicitly, but her words implied it clearly enough for Gu Cheng to understand.

"If you need help... come to me anytime." Uncle Fan had already given her the contact information for that psychiatrist... Su Wanxi held the girl's fingers tightly, her eyes clear as a pool of spring water.

"Su Wanxi".

“You are also my captain…” Gu Cheng’s voice was very soft, and her pink lips were slightly upturned.

Upon hearing this, Su Wanxi turned around and stared intently into those light brown eyes: "In front of you, I am no one..."

"I am just Su Wanxi..."

The warmth of her fingertips suddenly faded, startling the girl's heart. Gu Cheng bit her lower lip, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

She stood quietly, watching that slender figure gradually disappear into the sunset.

......

After closing the door, turning on the lights, and changing into her little white rabbit slippers, Gu Cheng plopped down on the soft sofa with a "thud".

After training all afternoon, although Gu Chengyan was the one doing most of the work, the physical fatigue still reached Gu Cheng.

After staring at the ceiling for a long time, the girl called out to the other person in her mind.

"Can you take control of this body?" Gu Cheng asked at the office building entrance, only to find that she had already lost control of her body. She could only watch helplessly.

"Hmm." Gu Chengyan did not deny it, and at the same time, he logged Gu Cheng off again.

"Compared to this... Miss Su's answer was quite interesting..." Unlike the previous internal communication, the lazy voice came directly from the girl's mouth.

She quickly took off her coat, kicked her little white rabbit slippers into the gap between the coffee table and the floor, gently rested her head on her arm, and crossed her fair and smooth legs on the glass tabletop.

"You should pay a little attention to your image..." This posture was very indecent. Although Gu Cheng could only see the lace trim on her chest from her angle, she knew that her panties were definitely showing.

"Tsk, anyway, I'm at home." Despite saying that, Gu Chengyan still put his legs down and changed his body position to lie on his side.

"Women are such a hassle..."

"You are now too." Gu Cheng reminded him in a low voice. It would be fine if someone else said it, but it felt a bit inappropriate coming from a pretty young girl. She was getting more and more worried about Gu Chengyan's future.

"Yes, yes, yes... So how do you plan to respond to Miss Su?" Gu Chengyan ran his fingertips through his hair, playing with them carefully, a faint smile on his face.

"What response?"
