Chapter 6: How To Beat Mind-Reading!

The young girl had her hair tied into a ponytail and had put on light makeup. Nonetheless, her simple fas.h.i.+on: cropped jeans, white sneakers and single white s.h.i.+rt managed to accentuate her stunning figure completely.

That was when a stream of memories streamed up to his mind’s eye.

“w.a.n.g Siyu, Chief w.a.n.g’s daughter?”

“She got me to give her lesson on maths in her third year in high school, even developing feelings for me which ultimately ended in a confession?”

No wonder she was blus.h.i.+ng when she saw him. ‘He’ had rejected her feelings before, which was why she was being awkward and embarra.s.sed now?

Moreover...

Who would search for a dog like this? If it really was that urgent, she should be running all over the village.

So, the dog was an excuse... but the truth was that she thirsted for his body?

“Bah! Shameless!”

Suddenly, w.a.n.g Siyu had lifted her eyes to glare viciously at him, gritting her teeth as she cursed. “You’re so full of yourself! Who would thirst for your body?!”

“Woah!” Jiang He was left bewildered and muttering, “You can read my thoughts?”

Realizing by reflex that she had accidentally let that slip, she quickly changed her tone. “Jiang He, my Dumbo... No, you’re so filthy!”

Her cheeks became redder even before she finished—she turned and left eventually, gritting her teeth and stamping her feet.

Nonetheless, Jiang He was frowning soon afterward.

‘What was that?

‘Mind reading?

‘I’ve merely imagined it for a bit in my mind and I’m being filthy?

‘That said, she didn’t seem to sense it when I thought about the System... so the System blocks out that power?’

“But she must have known that Dumbo ran here to my house.”

Jiang He opened his gates and walked up to his orchard. All twenty-eight corn stalks had already grown corn husks, and the corn ears would be fully grown by tomorrow.

He then found Dumbo, who was still well-hidden in the middle of the cornfield, sprawled out between the corn stalks.

Jiang He was naturally pleased. “You’re not going home?”

Dumbo nodded, and even rolled its eyes.

“You mean only idiots would go back when there’s cuc.u.mber to eat here?”

But even as Jiang He watched Dumbo nod its head like a chick pecking on grains, Jiang He couldn’t help scowling. “w.a.n.g Siyu can read minds, though. How could I fool her?”

“Oh, right... if her mind-reading sees my inner thoughts, couldn’t I just think about other things?”

“I am so clever!”

Jiang He had a glint in his eyes just then. “Mind reading is so weak. Even I could come up with several ways to beat it easily!”

For one, what if the mind-reader was a man?

Easy.

Curse his ancestors over the last eighteen generations, make him and his father a cuckold, or if one were to be more despicable, cuckold their missus.

Secondly, it was even simpler with charming beauties like w.a.n.g Siyu. All it took for him was to think about starting a family with them, along the process of making children.

“And of course, I would have to apply those tricks smartly and adaptably, since there’s no guarantee that my opponent is ugly...

“I even lie to myself when I’m feeling evil. What could you do about it?”

Jiang He stared at Dumbo just then, telling himself repeatedly, “This isn’t Chief w.a.n.g’s Dumbo. It’s a wolfdog pup I raised, and it just has some resemblance.

“This isn’t Dumbo...”

Soon, it was lunchtime.

There was still some rice left from last night, so there’s no need to cook any.

The dishes, on the other hand...

“Let’s try having cuc.u.mber over meat.”

At the same time, an

When w.a.n.g Siyu returned, she got into the vehicle immediately.

Another two men and one woman were seated within. All the men were donning black coats, whereas the woman was wearing tight spandex over her ravis.h.i.+ng figure.

“Xiao w.a.n.g, you know your own village best. We’ll leave you in charge, starting today.”

One of the men in black coats said, “You can mind read, which makes investigation most convenient. By the way, have you picked up anything after making your rounds?”

w.a.n.g Siyu nodded, but then shook her head.

“I have an unconfirmed suspect—the dog I’ve been rearing over eight years suddenly ran off to his house, and I think he could talk to animals.”

“Animal whispering?”

The man in a black coat frowned. “That’s a rare ability, but your dog running to his house might not mean anything, doesn’t it?

“But of course, even the faintest suspicion must be cleared.

“Sure, according to bureau rules, newbies like you shouldn’t be operating solo. But there are more and more tasks lately, especially at the plateau with those mutated animals. All of them wreak so much havoc that headquarters is left hard-pressed. With our personnel lacking, we could only go with this arrangement.”

The man in a black coat rubbed his temples—helplessness was written all over his face.

Beside him, however, the spandex-wearing woman with the stunning figure smiled. “We will be busy for a while. The word I’ve heard is that the country would go public over the matter next month since the number of Awakened as well as mutated beasts are both on the rise across the world. Continuing to keep it a secret would only cause public panic.”

w.a.n.g Siyu reflected on that for a bit before asking, “What about Li Fei, Sister Bai?”

‘Sister Bai’ refers to the spandex-wearing woman, whose real name was Bai Feifei. She, however, was not an ‘Awakened’ but a martial artist who had learned a set of powerful skills, and was w.a.n.g Siyu’s guide as well.

“The power Li Fei awakened to is superstrength, but it’s D-cla.s.s,” Bai Feifei replied then. “Awakened who reveal their powers so directly aren’t too much a threat... it’s those old snakes who had clearly awakened superpowers but stubbornly kept a lid on it.”

“Anyway, the bureau’s stance is to bring in those openly Awakened to groom if they came willingly. If they don’t, they would have to sign an oath of secrecy, and not make a mess of things before the country goes public with the matter, at least.”

“That is why if you could confirm that the suspect has awakened beast-taming powers, you could try to bring him in.”

“It’s a rare ability. If we could train him, he would prove very useful in the future!”

“Yes, Sister Bai!”

w.a.n.g Siyu had a somber look on her face; she understood what Sister Bai meant.

The return of Spirit Qi and the awakening of the supernatural had caused unique mutations in certain humans, granting them special powers. It was the same for animals too, with incidents of fearsome beasts attacking cities already occurring in foreign nations, causing serious casualties. That was why the country had already begun drawing up plans for secluded mountain areas and farming villages years ago.

An example of that included implementing the environmental migration project.

By moving all mountain villages and towns to the outskirts of major cities, the military would be able to defend them if anything unexpected happens, minimizing casualties as far as they could.

Meanwhile,

A military truck was evacuating the village shepherds who had remained in the mountain in an orderly fas.h.i.+on.

But suddenly.

Bang!

A gunshot echoed across the vast mountains.

“Hurry up! Floor it, floor it!”

“That beast has shown up again!”

Just above the mountaintop, the enormous Wolf King silently gazed upon the military truck and the troops escorting it.

The Wolf King had been the size of a cow just a few days ago, but its body had doubled in size now!
