American Comics: BOSS Invasion

#878 - Third-party contact

The black cat was struck as if by lightning, its body trembling like a sieve.

Qi Shan let out a surprised 'oh' sound. He had tested the power of the 'Soul Lock' skill countless times. No matter who the target was, once cast, they would be instantly suppressed, their entire body becoming Qi Shan's puppet.

Although memories would also be suppressed, the remaining parts in the brain cells could be reviewed on their own. Therefore, every time after casting the Soul Lock, Qi Shan would go through a rapid montage of memories, like watching a fast-forwarded movie. Although he understood the various plots, he couldn't empathize with the emotions.

However, for collecting information, this should be the most convenient skill.

But this time, the target was just a somewhat strange black cat, and it actually showed resistance. Although this feeling of being blocked was very short, it was still very obvious.

This made Qi Shan somewhat interested.

Unfortunately, facing Qi Shan's powerful soul, coupled with the infinite bonus of special attributes, even if the other party was a superpower user, they could not resist the connection of Qi Shan's soul.

The black cat's body twitched a few times, and then it calmed down.

Qi Shan closed his eyes slightly, and various images flowed through his mind like a waterfall.

After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, and with a thought, the black cat in front of him turned into a girl wearing a black leotard.

The transformation process was very magical. The black cat first turned into a soft lump of black mud, rippling on the ground a few times, then gradually flattening out, as if forming a black mirror. Then, a graceful figure slowly emerged.

Finally, the black color receded like a tide, sticking to the surface of the graceful figure, forming a girl wearing a black leotard that completely revealed her exquisite figure.

After receiving a portion of the other party's memory, Qi Shan had a certain understanding of superpower users.

The girl in front of him was only 16 years old. She had only awakened her superpower this year, which her companions named 'Ink Transformation'.

As long as she wore a black leotard, she could freely control her body shape, transforming into other creatures or even objects.

In her memory, this girl had transformed into a huge war fortress in a superpower battle. Although she eventually fell into a coma for several months due to receiving too much damage, her contribution during the war was enormous.

Qi Shan didn't care about some miscellaneous memories, including the girl's name, he didn't even have the desire to explore it now.

Instead, a figure appeared in his mind, attracting Qi Shan's attention.

It was a somewhat familiar girl, with long, straight black hair. Her figure wasn't too good, but her long legs were impressive.

It was precisely this pair of somewhat unreasonable long legs that allowed Qi Shan to quickly match the target.

In the memories of his predecessor, this girl seemed to have come to his house with his younger sister.

At that time, his predecessor was preparing for an important defense and didn't pay any attention to it.

Now that Qi Shan thought about it, he instantly matched the girl's identity.

He remembered that it was during breakfast one day when the news on TV had been broadcasting the wanted order for the same girl for several mornings, calling her the most evil Underworld Witch of this century.

Moreover, the terrifyingly jaw-dropping reward amount had also caught the attention of Qi Shan's predecessor.

Because of this, Qi Shan was able to retrieve these important pieces of information in his memory.

"So, the assassination is related to this girl? That's something to look forward to!"

Qi Shan's lips curled up slightly. It seemed that this matter was about to come to the surface.

The girl next to him transformed back into a black cat, jumped onto Qi Shan's shoulder, and lay there obediently. Qi Shan slowly turned around, preparing to go to work.

He thought that today would be like this, and he would continue to play the original peaceful life. He didn't expect that just as he walked out of the alley, the phone suddenly rang.

Qi Shan just picked up the phone and glanced at it. Although he didn't do anything, the phone answered itself.

"Hello, Mr. Qi Shan, do you still remember the young man whose sternum you shattered with one punch that night?"

The other party was a man with a somewhat hoarse voice, speaking slowly, as if he had endless confidence.

Qi Shan raised his eyebrows slightly. Is the next wave coming so soon? Or is there a third party involved in this matter?

Qi Shan was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I don't know what you're talking about!"

"Pretending to be stupid is useless. You have to know that we are already in the 21st century. The sky is full of satellites, and the streets are full of surveillance cameras. Do you think that choosing a remote street can completely avoid being detected? Don't be naive, that's impossible!"

The other party's tone was relaxed, with a hint of ridicule.

Qi Shan remained silent.

The other party continued, "Don't be nervous, I'm just a little curious. You are clearly an ordinary person, so how can you have such a powerful force that you can easily kill a qualified person? But at your age, with your talent, I really don't know what to say!"

"I have class today!" Qi Shan's tone was very matter-of-fact.

The man on the other end was choked for a moment, and said somewhat irritably: "Listen, kid, I don't have the time to mess around with you. If you don't show up at the tea house before 12:00, I will turn the only piece of evidence in this world into ashes! It's up to you!"

The phone was hung up directly.

Feeling that the other party's mood seemed to be very bad, Qi Shan gradually raised the corners of his mouth.

The rhythm is well-controlled, it seems to be premeditated.

"Not bad, this is the way I expected to meet!"

Qi Shan tugged at his tie and turned to walk in another direction.

The inexplicable phone call and the obvious disruptive rhetoric indicate that the other party must be a third-party force, trying to painstakingly involve him in something to achieve an unknown goal.

Qi Shan didn't care about their purpose, but this opportunity was rare.

Returning home directly, Qi Shan changed out of his suit, put on an inconspicuous dark blue tracksuit, found a baseball cap to wear on his head, took a paper bag to pack the black cat, and then pushed the door and walked out.

When he walked out of the building entrance, a black car was already waiting there. The driver was a middle-aged man, who looked a little frightened.

The moment he saw Qi Shan, his eyes twitched obviously. He wiped his sweat while nodding and bowing to open the rear door, making a gesture of invitation.

Qi Shan's footsteps paused almost imperceptibly, and then he got into the car very naturally.

Interesting, are they impatient?
