Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Celestial Eye

According to his previous life plan, Su Xin intended to enjoy life while studying hard to earn a good degree.

He aimed to join a multinational corporation like Kangbo Biotechnology, becoming a mid-level technical employee with a decent income and social status, without too many troubles.

Additionally, by writing web novels in his spare time, he could earn some pocket money, ensuring a life free from financial worries.

This was Su Xin’s ideal perfect life.

Now, with the death of his parents, his peaceful life had been disrupted, but he still wanted to follow his previous plan, maintaining a normal life on the surface, a harbor for his soul.

After all, he didn’t need sleep anymore, had twice as much time as others, and could live a normal life by day and transform into the man in the black robe by night. Whether investigating the Nirvana Association, interacting with high-level groups or gang forces, or acting as a vigilante to earn karma points, nothing would be delayed.

Therefore, before his identity was completely exposed, Su Xin decided to keep his identity as a student.

After arranging a leave of absence with Teacher Zhou.

Su Xin hailed a taxi:

"Driver, take me around Lening City, 200 yuan per hour, how about that?"

"200 per hour? Just around Lening?"

"That’s right, waiting time included, until I feel I’ve seen enough, 200 per hour, even if it’s less than an hour, it’s counted as an hour."

"Alright! Get in the car!"

The driver readily agreed.

After getting into the car, Su Xin handed the driver two hundred-yuan bills and said:

"Here’s two hundred upfront, the rest will be settled after the tour, is that okay?"

"No problem, where to first?"

The driver was even happier.

"First stop, Golden Phoenix Garden."

Su Xin opened the map app and checked several addresses he had saved last night, which he had learned through his Other-Transformation superpower were the residences of several Golden Shield Gang high-level members.

He was heading there not to find them but just to scout the areas nearby.

Once he toured the whole city several times and memorized locations at intervals, he could set space-time anchor points and use directional instant teleportation for quick transfers across the city at night.

It would make going anywhere much more convenient.

And the Concealment Prayer superpower’s restriction on setting space-time anchor points is places visited within twenty-four hours, so as long as he teleports to these locations once every twenty-four hours, they could become his long-term anchor points.

Therefore, the selection of these locations actually had quite high requirements.

First, the straight-line distance between them should not exceed ten kilometers, nor be too close.

Second, they must be distinctive and easy to remember, so as not to forget them due to too many locations.

Third, they must have a certain level of concealment, or be sufficiently hidden at night, to avoid encountering others during his scheduled teleports.

As the saying goes, sharpening your axe won’t hinder your work at cutting wood.

Once these long-term anchor points were set, he could swiftly transfer across the city, making many things more convenient afterward.

Su Xin spent almost a whole day touring Lening City by car, occasionally getting off to walk around.

The locations he visited included the city center, suburbs, shopping malls, amusement parks, small streets and alleys, business districts, residential areas, villa districts, and even coastal roads.

Every time Su Xin chose a long-term anchor point, he marked the location on his map app.

By four in the afternoon.

The locations marked in Su Xin’s phone were dense, covering all major areas of Lening City, with as many as seventy-two marked points.

This was the first time Su Xin felt the benefits of his years of persistent learning, as it had cultivated his excellent memory, allowing him to clearly remember all these locations.

...

While Su Xin was traversing every corner of Lening City in the car.

At Lening Airport, a young man wearing sunglasses, fashionably dressed, and a middle-aged man with a simple appearance walked out of the arrivals gate and took a taxi to a hotel.

This hotel was quite modestly decorated, the environment wasn’t great, and most facilities were outdated, with no surveillance cameras except in the lobby on the first floor.

After placing their luggage in the room, the two walked out and gently knocked on the door next door.

Two light knocks followed by three heavy ones.

They repeated the knock twice.

Soon, the person inside looked through the peephole and then opened the door.

The person inside was Volcano from the Nirvana Association.

The three remained silent.

The two outside tacitly entered the room.

After closing the door.

The three sat down by the tea table.

Volcano looked at the two and smiled:

"It seems the organization indeed values the Instant Teleportation Superpower Users, to actually send you two."

The young man in sunglasses, known in the organization as Celestial Eye, sat casually and said boldly:

"Escaping from those guys’ laboratory, that superpower user’s ability isn’t simple, let alone one with an even higher value as an Instant Teleportation Superpower User, of course, the organization would value this."

"By the way, what’s the situation now?"

Volcano said: "Due to the urgency, we forcibly took action against Kangbo Biological Company’s convoy and destroyed their experimental data."

"However, the price was the sacrifice of the two members who had infiltrated the laboratory with great difficulty."

"Additionally, the peripheral member we supported, Fang Keyi, was killed last night by an unknown person, and as usual, I had his villa burned down and sent someone to infiltrate his gang office, only to find it had already been breached."

"According to internal surveillance footage of the Golden Shield Gang, the intruder was the man in the black robe."

After Volcano briefly introduced the intelligence.

Celestial Eye furrowed his brows and asked:

"Does the man in the black robe have a grievance with the Golden Shield Gang?"

"Not clear at the moment."

Celestial Eye rested his chin in his hand, contemplatively said: "Perhaps we could start the investigation from this angle. Wasn’t the man in the black robe missing for two days? He suddenly appeared last night but invaded the headquarters of the Golden Shield Gang, which indicates he must be connected to the Golden Shield Gang... Right, could it be related to yesterday’s attack?"

"You attacked Kangbo Biological Company during the day, Fang Keyi was killed at night, and the Golden Shield Gang was invaded, maybe the man in the black robe is related to Kangbo Biological Company, like, if his relatives died in that attack, he would want revenge."

"That would make everything reasonable."

Volcano gave him a glance and said blandly:

"It is reasonable, but what you’re doing is speculative, without any basis."

"Moreover, although yesterday’s attack was hasty, Fang Keyi and the others executed it discreetly. In just a few hours, even the authorities with significant efforts failed to find effective clues. How could the man in the black robe trace Fang Keyi?"
