Chapter 772: Mistake?

But how could she have this special power?

As far as he knew, among all the espers in the world, he was the only one who had awakened this superpower. With this superpower, he could pause time yet still be able to eat, sleep, and do anything.

He had been living a carefree life all these years.

Even if he killed someone, there were no abnormalities or clues left behind. Hence, no one had ever known that those people were killed by him, until—

Someone in the special department found out and had poisoned his air.

Even though he had paused time, he still needed to use air and breathe. He had inhaled in a fit of pique and was only captured after being sedated.

Following that, he was imprisoned in the special department’s prison. There, he did not know what was set up around him, but his special powers could not be used, and he could not escape.

Moreover, even if time was paused, no one would give him a key. It would be even more difficult to escape.

He originally thought that he was doomed, but he did not expect to be dragged out in the middle of the night and be allowed to escape.

Hence, he became even more unbridled.

But how could this be? How could anyone else have this special power?

Moreover, if this red-haired girl had this special power, shouldn’t it have been easy for her to capture him back then? Did General Xiang need to set up a trap?

Just as he was thinking this, he saw Xue Xi, who had his note on her forehead, staring straight at him as though she did not realize how funny she looked at this moment. Instead, she looked at him seriously and slowly said, “I said that we can catch you even without him doing anything.”

Liu Tao: “?”

Why did she sound protective?

Was it because he had mocked General Xiang for only knowing how to scheme?

He gulped. “How do you know this superpower?”

Xue Xi replied calmly and seriously, “I learned it the moment you touched me.”

Xue Xi’s “Learning” superpower required physical contact. Hence, from the start, she had exposed her identity and said that she was General Xiang’s girlfriend.

This angered Liu Tao.

She was also certain that if Liu Tao could not hold it in, he would definitely humiliate her after time was paused.

Hence, after Liu Tao stomped his foot and killed the hostage, her thoughts seemed to have frozen. She could not move at all, but then, she felt as though someone had touched her face. That familiar electric current instantly spread throughout her body.

Then, she could move.

The first thing she saw was silence.

The entire world was silent as though the sun had stopped operating. The entire Earth was silent. Everything around them had paused. If someone was eating in front of you, the bits of food would be floating in the air.

Jing Fei was still charging toward 201…

Then, she felt a chill on her forehead as though something had been pasted on it. Just as the person was about to leave, she grabbed his wrist!

Xue Xi slowly looked at Liu Tao and could see the shock in the man’s eyes.

However, she did not care about this. Instead, she dragged Liu Tao upstairs.

Liu Tao was furious. “What are you doing? Let go of me. Tell me, how did you learn this superpower?!”

Xue Xi ignored him and used her “Great Strength” ability, making it impossible for Liu Tao to break free. She dragged Liu Tao up this old residential building.

There was no elevator in the residential building. She walked toward the stairs step by step. Liu Tao fell to the ground, but she still dragged him upstairs.

Liu Tao was furious. “What are you doing? Let me tell you, the hostage is already dead! I know that you don’t want anyone to die because if he dies, your colleague who let me go will have to bear the same responsibility and will be sentenced with me! Hahahaha, so what if you catch me? Even if I die, I can still drag another person down with me!”

Xue Xi ignored him and dragged him upstairs as though she was dragging a mop.

After that, she threw Liu Tao to the ground and grabbed the remaining rope that he had used to tie the hostage to the side.

Immediately, Xue Xi rushed to the hostage.

There was a long wound on the hostage’s neck that Liu Tao had just pierced. As long as time flowed back, this person would immediately vomit blood and die!

This situation could not be reversed even in a hospital.

Xue Xi frowned and placed her hand on his shoulder, using her special power to heal him!

She remembered that Fang Yi’s healing technique could heal all injuries caused by espers.

However, after she used it, she realized that it could not be cured.

Xue Xi quickly figured out the reason. This healing power could heal injuries caused by special abilities, but Liu Tao’s special ability was Time Freeze. Later, he used blades to hurt others!

For example, Little Flame’s superpower was fire. If he directly used fire to hurt someone, the injury could be treated. However, if he burned something else and that thing made someone burn, this injury would be incurable!

Hence, her healing spell was useless to the hostage!

Xue Xi frowned.

Just as she was thinking this, Liu Tao, who was tied up beside her, suddenly smiled. “What? Were you using real combat healing just now? I’ve long heard that there’s a person in the special department who knows how to heal. What’s her name?! Fang what?”

Xue Xi kindly reminded him, “…Fang Yi?”

Liu Tao instantly smiled. “Yes, Fang Yi. Hahaha!”

He twisted on the chair for a moment before saying, “Fang Yi, I’m telling you, you’d better let me go. Just now, I’ve already used a special method to pass your name to my accomplices. If you kill me today, they will avenge me!”

When Xue Xi heard this, a question mark appeared in her mind.
