Chapter 1 Lightning Husky Express

directoryBack to directoryNext
 On a rainy night, the fourth renaissance city "Seven Islands".

On the first sea-crossing bridge from Hong Kong Island to Xiasu District, a silver-gray locomotive is speeding.

The rider wore an old gray jacket and a bright yellow vest with the words "Lightning Husky Express" and the Smiling Kobold logo printed on the vest.

"Ouch - Hello rider Yu Zhesen, the Lightning Husky assistant reminds you that there are still 30 minutes before the private custom express delivery service times out. Please hurry up and complete the delivery task."

The intelligent voice system built into the helmet issued a reminder.

Yu Zhesen subconsciously turned on the gas pedal.

“Ouch—Rider Yu Zhesen, you are speeding. Please pay attention to traffic safety and drive properly.”

"Your sister..."

Yu Zhesen cursed lowly and manually turned off the intelligent voice system in the helmet.

This job can no longer be done. You must resign immediately! Immediately! Find another job next month.

"Beep——" There is a call coming in.

Yu Zhesen was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself, no, no, no, no, no, not two minutes after he turned off the smart voice of the helmet, someone from the company called to inquire about the situation?

It’s already eleven o’clock in the evening. Is there anyone still on duty at the Lightning Husky Rider Deployment Center?

"Hello?" He answered the phone bravely.

"Hello, Yu Zhesen?"

Yu Zhesen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the familiar voice on the other end of the phone. It turned out to be his roommate Shen Yunqiu.

As long as no one from Lightning Husky calls to ask why his helmet is disconnected...

"What's the matter, Old Shen?"

As soon as he spoke to Shen Yunqiu, Yu Zhesen's tone unconsciously turned scornful.

"Where are you, kid?" Shen Yunqiu's voice sounded a little nervous.

"Dad is running orders outside. If you fart, hurry up."

"A female commissioner from the Iron Dome Security Bureau came to see you and told you that she would not leave until you came back. What have you done recently?" Shen Yunqiu spoke in a low voice, as if the other party was nearby.

"What the hell, is there such a thing?"

Yu Zhesen's mind briefly shut down, and he really thought carefully about what he had done recently.

"It can't be because of that underground bar..."

"Hiss—what underground bar?"

Shen Yunqiu took a breath of air. He was just asking casually, but he didn't expect that Yu Zhesen seemed to have something wrong.

"Nothing, nothing... By the way, is the commissioner's surname An?"

"Ah, yes, yes, eh? How did you know?" Shen Yunqiu was stunned for a moment on the other end of the phone.

"That's okay. Just let her wait. I'll come back after delivering this order... That's right! Don't let her enter my room!"

Yu Zhesen's tone in the second half of his sentence suddenly became so passionate that Shen Yunqiu was so frightened that he almost lost his grip on his phone.

He hung up the phone, turned around and glanced uneasily at the young beauty sitting on the sofa in the living room, wearing a dark Iron Dome Security Bureau uniform, and forced out a sneer: "Miss An, Yu Zhisen said he would finish this trip The courier will be back soon, look..."

"It doesn't matter, I can wait for him."

Next to Ms. An is a black leather suitcase with two electronic locks on it.

Shen Yunqiu took another look at the suitcase, wondering whether there were any lie detectors or portable torture instruments in there...

"It's getting late. Will the lights in the living room affect your rest?" Miss An glanced at him.

"No, no, no...it doesn't matter..."

"Really, that's good."

Although the words that came out of her mouth were thoughtful words, her expression was so cold that Shen Yunqiu did not dare to have any objections.

He quickly returned to his bedroom and carefully closed the door. He leaned against the door and prayed for Yu Zhesen for three seconds.

A sneeze——

Yu Zhesen, who was racing on the cross-sea bridge, sneezed and squeezed the accelerator to death.

The rearview mirror of the motorcycle was covered with a layer of water droplets, but he could still vaguely see a blue and white motorcycle chasing after him.

The distance between each other is about twenty meters, and it is still getting shorter.

The other party's high-beam headlights shone on his butt, making his rearview mirror bright.

Then, the other party's car lights began to switch between far and near lights.

"What a mess." Yu Zhesen was a little annoyed. He wanted to get rid of the guy behind him, but the speed could no longer be increased.

Although this silver-gray motorcycle was basically modified from a retired second-generation product, its performance is on par with the common third-generation products on the market. In addition, Yu Zhesen is a talented artist and bold, and he has never encountered someone who has rejected him. Opponents that don’t open.

But I seem to have met a master tonight...

The blue and white motorcycle behind him could not only keep up with his top speed, but also steadily narrow the gap between them, and constantly "play" with him with far and near lights.

About twenty seconds later, the man caught up and kept pace with him.

Yu Zhesen couldn't help but cast a sidelong glance at this opponent who had made him feel inferior.

It didn't matter if he didn't glance at it, this glance made him suddenly startled.

The rearview mirror was blurred by water drops, and he realized now that the person chasing him was a field specialist affiliated with the Iron Dome Security Bureau.

The rider on the blue and white motorcycle next door is not wearing a motorcycle helmet, but a police integrated exoskeleton armor visor.

With a "squeak" sound, the opponent's visor opened to both sides, revealing a fair face of a girl with delicate features.

The next second, the girl's words in a cold and serious tone penetrated the 180-mph wind and reached Yu Zhesen's ears.

"What are you looking at? Pull over."

Damn it, this order will definitely time out...

Yu Zhesen reluctantly slowed down and stopped, and at the same time thought about how to appease the customer so that he would not give him a negative review.

"Raise your hands and turn your back." The girl commissioner who got off the blue and white police motorcycle continued to order.

Yu Zhesen obediently complied, but he didn't stop talking: "You are a specialist in the field department of the Security Bureau, right? Isn't it the Traffic Bureau's responsibility to catch speeders?"

The other party ignored him and seemed to be using an armored communication device to communicate with his superiors.

"Command Center, here is Commissioner Chu Yuexi's report, intercepting suspicious targets in the western section of the First Cross-sea Bridge and requesting search permission. Report completed."

A few seconds later, a reply came from the headset: "Commissioner Chu, please follow the rules and procedures and identify the target's identity information first. Complete."

"Sorry, identification is over now." Chu Yuexi ended the communication, with a hint of embarrassment in her eyes.

Yu Zhesen on the side couldn't help but laugh: "White armor...you just got an internship, right?"

"Shut up and show the electronic bracelet on your left hand."

Yu Zhesen rolled up the sleeve of his left arm as she asked, exposing the citizen electronic bracelet on his left wrist.

The other party used the scanner on the left arm of his exoskeleton armor to scan his bracelet.

"Didi... information identification completed, citizen ID, Yu Zhesen, male, 22 years old."

The identified information data was simultaneously transmitted back to the field department command center.

"The identity information comparison does not match. Commissioner Chu, please go to Xiasu District immediately to track the target. The latest navigation information has been loaded. Complete."

"Received. Completed."

Chu Yuexi sighed with a complicated expression, and said to Yu Zhesen, who was still raising his hands: "You are lucky."

After that, she got on the motorcycle again, and her facial armor closed automatically.

"No, what's going on?" Yu Zhesen shouted dissatisfied, "You stopped me and my order must have timed out. Is there any explanation?"

"Your life is yours, ride slower on rainy days."

Her voice came out through the exoskeleton armor and had a hint of electronic sound.

"Hello..."

The engine of the blue and white police motorcycle roared, completely covering up Yu Zhesen's voice.

The next second, she ejected and took off, as if the person and car were integrated into a rocket and rushed out.

Under the continuous bright streetlights on both sides of the cross-sea bridge, it looks like a blue-white comet rushing into the rain of light in the sky.

"God damn your life is yours, ride slower on rainy days."

After Yu Zhesen finished complaining, he got on the motorcycle and turned on the helmet's smart voice again.

"Ouch - Hello rider Yu Zhesen, the Lightning Husky assistant reminds you that there are still 20 minutes before the private custom express delivery service times out. Please hurry up and complete the delivery task."

"Twenty minutes? It seems my good reviews can still be saved." Yu Zhesen murmured.

The silver-gray motorcycle then turned into a comet and rushed into the rain.

Speaking of which, the customer who placed this order was quite strange. He was asked to pick up the package from the pier in Hong Kong Island and deliver it directly to a residential area in Xiasu District at around ten o'clock in the evening. This kind of privately customized express delivery service is not cheap.

Yu Zhesen couldn't help but be a little curious about what the goods he delivered were.

……

20 minutes later, "Huayuanting" community in Xiasu District.

Standing in the elevator, Yu Zhesen held a well-packaged carton in one hand and pressed the elevator door button with the other.

The outside of the carton is wrapped in transparent plastic with excellent waterproof performance. Even if Yu Zhesen is running in the rain, there is no need to worry about the goods inside getting wet by the rain.

His client is on the 12th floor. It is already late at night and the elevator is empty.

The elevator door slowly closed. At the last moment when it was about to close completely, a hand reached into the gap from the outside, causing the elevator door to open to both sides again.

A man wearing a black hooded jacket walked into the elevator. The hood seemed to be pulled up to protect against rain.

"Which floor is it?" Yu Zhesen stood next to the elevator button and asked the other party out of good intentions.

"Floor 12." The man's hoarse voice came from under the hood.

"What a coincidence." Yu Zhesen smiled.

The man who came later did not pull down his hood in the elevator, so Yu Zhesen could only vaguely see the lower half of his face.

Out of politeness, Yu Zhesen couldn't keep staring at the other person, but only glanced briefly when asking about the floor.

The lower contour of this man's face is thin, his skin is dark, his nose is straight, his lips are thin, and his mouth is like a razor blade.

If the eyebrows and eyes are not too bad, the overall appearance should be good. Unfortunately, the stubble on the chin is not shaved carefully.

The elevator seems to be rising a little slowly...or is it the psychological effect of being in a hurry to deliver the goods?

Yu Zhesen subconsciously raised his head to look at the floor. At this moment, a drop of rainwater slipped from the top of his motorcycle helmet and fell right into his eyes.

It was as if a cold thread passed through his eyes and reached deep into his heart.

Yu Zhesen was agitated and turned his eyes again to the hooded man leaning in the other corner of the elevator.

At this moment, he finally discovered a detail that he had ignored before - there was no sign of the other party being exposed to the rain.

Yu Zhesen's brain began to think rapidly.

This person entered the elevator after him, but did not get caught in the rain - this person was probably here a long time ago, and went straight to the elevator when he entered the building without observing his surroundings.

Not to protect himself from the rain, but he deliberately pulled up his hood - this person didn't want others to see his face clearly.

Based on the above two items, Yu Zhesen extremely suspected that this hooded man came here specifically to wait for him.

The destinations are all on the 12th floor, which is no coincidence.

Why? What is his purpose?

Yu Zhesen looked up and saw that the floor displayed above changed to F10, and decisively pressed the button for the 11th floor.

"Ding dong", the elevator stopped at the 11th floor.

Yu Zhesen ran out of the elevator holding the cardboard box.

After leaving the elevator, he subconsciously turned back and saw the elevator door slowly closing, and the hooded man still leaning silently in the corner.

He didn't chase him out as he imagined.

Was he getting suspicious? Yu Zhesen stopped in place for two seconds, shook his head and started running towards the stairwell.

He climbed up the stairwell to the 12th floor and started looking for the customer's house number based on the delivery information.

"1210, it's not on this side..." Yu Zhesen secretly sighed at his bad luck. The house number 1210 is on the east side and the stairwell is on the west side. He still has to pass through the elevator door in the middle.

The elevator stopped at the 12th floor. The hooded man must have gone back to his room.

Yu Zhesen came to door No. 1210 and pressed the doorbell. After taking a deep breath, he mentally recited the stupid lines that Lightning Husky Express Company requires delivery people to say to customers.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

The moment the door opened, he howled.

"Wow, thank you for using the Lightning Husky Express private customization service. It is as fast as lightning, rain or shine, and customer privacy is absolutely protected. Please look for Lightning..."

"Just sign for it." The door opened a third of the way, and the man behind the door revealed half of his body and said expressionlessly.

"Okay, okay, please show me your citizen electronic bracelet. I can scan it and sign for it."

Although the other person's face didn't look good, maybe because he was dissatisfied with the late delivery, Yu Zhesen was thankful that he didn't have to finish reading that stupid line.

A hand stretched out from behind the door, and Yu Zhesen took an instrument the size of a remote control and scanned the bracelet.

At this time, he had a vague feeling in his heart.

Just like when you meet the hooded man in the elevator who is covered in rain.

Beep! Signing successful.

"Thank you again for your use. If possible, I hope you can give me a positive review..." Yu Zhesen requested shamelessly.

The man took the plastic-sealed carton from his hand without saying a word and immediately prepared to close the door.

Sure enough, there is no chance...

Yu Zhesen smiled bitterly and scratched his helmet helplessly.

The door was closed in front of him, but not completely.

The customer closed the door very hard, but the door seemed to be stuck by something, and the rebound force was also very strong.

Yu Zhesen looked down along the crack in the door, and his expression suddenly changed.

A slippered foot got stuck in the crack of the door, so the door failed to close for the first time.

"Wait a minute!" He realized something was wrong and shouted loudly.

The man behind the door's face darkened, and he once again tried to close the door harder, but Yu Zhesen outside the door suddenly turned around and kicked the door. When he kicked the door open, he also knocked the man behind the door flying out.

The moment the door to the room opened, he saw the body lying at the door, and a flash of fear flashed in his eyes.

The corpse on the ground and the man in the room who was knocked away by kicking the door seemed to be carved from the same mold. The two looked exactly the same.

But the next moment, Yu Zhesen noticed a clue - the skin of the man sitting on the ground in the room began to twist and change.

A second later, he changed back to his original appearance - the hooded man in the elevator.

"Superpowers? Is the ability a form of mimicry?" Yu Zhesen suddenly realized.

When I signed for the goods just now, it was actually the disguised hooded man who dragged the corpse of the real customer behind the door and signed for the goods with the electronic bracelet on the corpse's hand! So I felt a strange feeling at that moment!<

/p>

"Delivery boy, it's none of your business anymore."

The hooded man slowly stood up and stuffed the cardboard box of goods into his clothes.

"It's none of my business? You probably just pretended to be me, tricked my client into opening the door and then killed him!" Yu Zhesen stared at him coldly.

The hooded man laughed, acquiescing.

Then he said hoarsely: "You should leave quickly before I change my mind."

"I'm afraid that if I turn around, you will kill me from behind." Yu Zhesen pointed to his right hand behind his back and said, "Your right hand holds a poison syringe disguised as a pen, right?"

"How did you know?"

The hooded man's surprised voice revealed his wavering. Now that Yu Zhesen had seen through it, he no longer hid the weapon in his right hand behind his back.

Yu Zhesen did not answer.

A few seconds later, the hooded man himself gave the answer: "You are also the holder of the superpower gene."

Yu Zhesen smiled and did not deny it.

"What is your superpower?" the hooded man asked with interest.

Only a fool would reveal his abilities in this situation.

On the surface, Yu Zhesen confronted him without any fear, but in his heart he was extremely nervous.

Through his own powers, he has seen himself being killed by the hooded man more than a dozen times.

To be precise, more than a dozen versions of myself in parallel time and space were killed in fights with the hooded man.

"Deduction of cause and effect of death" is part of Yu Zhesen's superpowers.

This ability allows him to predict his own death 5 minutes in advance in his mind, and begin to deduce how the various actions he takes next will change the cause and effect.

If you turn around and run away, you will be chased and killed by the hooded man.

Just stand there and wait until the hooded man realizes his bluff and he will be killed.

Actively attacking the hooded man will lead to many branching results due to different attack strategies.

But so far, the results of the calculations without exception are that he will be killed by the hooded man.
