Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 115 24 Hours

When you encounter difficulties, you can't sit still, let alone shut down your brain.Think, think.

Wisdom and brains are the biggest difference between humans and wild animals.When a wild boar or dog encounters a sudden situation that it cannot understand, it may yell or attack, and humans will use a cool head and strict logic in this case to find the way to the answer. path of.

Gongsun Ce is now seriously thinking in the quilt, trying to find the truth hidden behind the confusing surface.He woke up in his bedroom and found his good friend and neighbor standing by the bed without changing his face and handing him glasses. What kind of truth is hidden behind this?
— Most likely an assassination.

In ancient empires, there were well-known stories of assassins with knives but failed to escape in the name of sacrificing the knives. How similar is Qin Qianbai's behavior!The eldest lady is superb in martial arts, and it must not be difficult for her to take someone's life with a spectacle leg.In this way, everything became clear: Qin Qianbai didn't know why his murderous intent was so strong, he used the spare key he had given him to sneak into the room early in the morning, picked up his glasses and prepared to assassinate!
This is very typical impulsive killing.If he hadn't woken up in time, I'm afraid he would have died by now.

Gongsun Ce broke out in a cold sweat.He broke free from the quilt, hugged the pillow and shouted: "I am innocent, why did Qin Nu kill me?!"

Qin Nv looked at it with her arms crossed and said, "You are a barbarian."

You burglary-attempted-murder guy is turning my hat around.

Gongsun Ce clutched his chest, heartbroken: "Ce was born in the Central Plains, he is knowledgeable and reasonable, his heart is upright, and his actions are righteous. How can he be called a barbarian?"

"Backing benefits and angering neighbors, abandoning trust and forgetting righteousness, so they are barbarians."

"I, I, I..."

Gongsun Ce couldn't hold back anymore: "I'll think of words later—"

"10."

Countdown started? !
Gongsun Ce tried his best to search for his few ancient prose memories, and he managed to come up with a suitable half sentence in a hurry: "The reason why words are..."

"01."

"Fucking binary countdown?!"

"00. You lost, Ah Ce."

The consequence of spending precious thinking time on complaining is that you lose the inexplicable game.

When did the competition of dialogue in classical Chinese start?Besides, why would there be an idiot who compares this to a young lady from an imperial noble family?

Gongsun Ce covered his forehead and said angrily, "Why did I abandon my faith..."

"Appointment, take ownership of Ah Ce within 24 hours."

"There's something subtle wrong with this wording. Mr. Gongsun, what I promised was a punishment game, not a contract of prostitution."

The eldest lady raised her phone expressionlessly.

"I sent a text message to notify him beforehand, but Ah Ce didn't do anything after the agreed time. Therefore, I came to confirm the living condition."

Don't make it sound like I've had an accident.

Mobile phone... Gongsun Ce, who just woke up, couldn't help but yawned, and touched the phone to have a look.

The latest unread text message was accepted at 7:59.

He confirmed that his alarm clock was set at eight o'clock, which means...

"—You waited for less than a minute! It's not fishing law enforcement, it's fish bombing law enforcement!!"

Qin Qianbai lowered his head and thought for a while.

"Is this a hint that you want me to pour hot oil over it?"

"Can you stop treating me like a fish so naturally?"

And don't burn oil so fast.

Don't mention eggs and bread crumbs, at least coat it before putting it in the pan.

"Fried salted fish."

"I've downgraded from raw fish to salted fish!?"

No, what a supernatural situation.Talking about this with his good neighbor just after waking up made him almost think he was still in a dream.

Gongsun Ce leaned against the head of the bed and said weakly, "I'll get up right away. I promise to keep my promise, and I'll be at your disposal all day today... But can you please go out first and let Mr. Gongsun change into home clothes after I wash up?" "

"..."

Qin Qianbai sat on the chair and looked at the wardrobe, seemingly hesitant.

"I don't know what you're thinking but I hope you don't take your thoughts as commands."

"Is there any strange book in the closet?"

"No one hides physical comics these days!"

As a result, even now, this guy still lacks common sense in subtle places.

·
Two 10 minutes later.

"The first order will be issued now." The eldest lady sat down at the dining table, "Ah Ce, let's make breakfast."

"I can tell you're hungry."

"We must work hard to achieve the level of a chef in the imperial capital."

"Mr. Gongsun, I'm not some genius graduate from the School of Cooking, let alone a strange chef. No matter how hard I try, I can fry an egg and bake you bread."

Eggs, bread, bacon, and a bowl of milk, this is the breakfast that Gongsun Ce often makes for himself.Fortunately, there were enough ingredients in the refrigerator. After confirming the portion, he made a copy for the girl as it was.

Beat eggs with superpowers, control a spatula with superpowers, open the toaster with superpowers...

The gray-haired young man sat comfortably at the table, controlling the fried bacon and eggs to fly into the plate.

Qin Qianbai commented: "People who don't know why see the kitchen and feel that the kitchen utensils have become fine."

"What can you do with telekinesis?"

Gongsun Ce chewed the bread dryly, intending to find something to talk about - to divert the girl's attention and prevent her from thinking of the horrible order "eat eggs with your nose".

"How is your recent martial arts training, miss?"

"No real progress."

The girl cutting eggs with a knife and fork judged her efforts from a third-party objective perspective.

"For me now, it is very difficult to reach a higher level. My daily practice is mainly based on the application of martial arts, that is, moves. During this time, I also tried to create new moves, but..."

Gongsun Ce recalled the battle some time ago, and guessed, "I saw all of them in Feitian Pure Land?"

The eldest lady nodded like a bystander.

"It's all one of the possibilities that Qin Ming simulated. After getting the inspiration, he studied it step by step, worked hard, and worked hard to realize it, but found that it was already simulated by that man, and it lacked practical meaning. Compared with frustration, , the unpleasant feeling is more intense."

The harder you work, the more you find that you are still on the path planned by the enemy. Every step forward, you will experience your own limit, and at the same time, you will feel the enemy's unfathomable strength more deeply.Gongsun Ce tried to imagine the feelings of his friends, thinking that for a strong and competitive person, this might be an even more embarrassing experience than defeat.

"So you're not happy."

"Well, my self-esteem as a warrior has been hurt."

No wonder you came to trouble me so early in the morning.In terms of involving innocent people, it is really similar to your uncle. Is this the style of your old Qin family?

Qin Qianbai finished eating the second fried egg, and asked, "Where's Ah Ce?"

Gongsun Ce slumped on the chair, and lazily replied: "I didn't even touch the edge of the spiritual photo! Yan Qi was cautious like a nervous breakdown. I went there every night to memorize ancient Chinese, learn basic knowledge, practice meditation rituals, and then Every time before he successfully fell asleep, he slapped him awake."

"Dream?"

"It is said that it is a step that every impermanent magician must go through at the beginning." Gongsun Ce said with a bitter face, "But my situation is quite special, and it is easy to go berserk if I am not careful... So I have been doing it for almost a month Situation simulation and basic ritual practice, it is hard for me to really start practicing."

Qin Qianbai's family also has an official impermanence envoy. She vaguely remembered hearing from her uncles that it usually takes years to get started with impermanence.

Ah Ce's words sounded like "you can start at any time but you are blocked from doing it." She thought about the appearance of the vicious envoys, and she understood where Yan Qi's caution came from.

Being too talented is not necessarily a good thing.

"A Ce has also fallen into a stagnant situation."

"I haven't started yet, so it's not a predicament. Your side should be more serious." Gongsun Ce shrugged, "So! Since we haven't been doing well recently, why don't we put aside our practice today and do something pleasant Heck!"

After eating the last bite of breakfast, the eldest lady pushed the plate aside.

"A Ce, how dare you make sexual harassment remarks to your master."

"I'm gradually starting to be too lazy to complain about your standards. By the way, have you already started calling yourself the master?! When will this meme go away!?"

Qin Qianbai picked up the milk and took a sip.The girl's lips opened and closed slightly, stained with a layer of milky white, and then poked out a small tongue from between her teeth, licked her lips, and wiped off the milk stain deftly.

The superhuman propped his face with one hand, watching the little movements of the girl on the other side of the table, and felt that cooking this meal was not a big deal.

"Perceived a disrespectful look."

Immediately pursed his lips.How sharp your intuition is.

"If I can't even look at your face, I can only talk to you with my eyes closed in the future. Speaking of impolite... people from the Mutual Aid Society and the Light Core, will you come again during this time?"

Gongsun Ce pretended to be concerned, but actually changed the subject.

The girl recalled for a few seconds: "The members of the Mutual Aid Society haven't seen each other since the initial invitation was rejected, and the members of the Light Core came 4 times and stopped bothering."

Gongsun Ce was taken aback.

"4 times? The gang of second-year-old patients are really free."

He just wanted to say why he didn't know, but after thinking about it, he realized that such an idea was wrong.The eldest lady has long passed the time period for taking care of her. She is capable of handling these chores, but now he is the one who gets more help.

"I am a talent at the top, and I should go to a higher stage. That's what the people who came to persuade me said."

I really don't know the so-called words, which are worthy of the words spoken by the Second Second Disease Group.

The so-called "light core" and "mutual aid society" are both names of superpower organizations.The former is a small group of elites established with a certain superpower as the core. They believe in elitism and regard the strength of superpowers as the criterion for dividing talents.The full name of the latter is "Sky City Superpowers Mutual Aid Association". The idea of ​​the organization is to help people with abilities to overcome difficulties together. There are no strict standards for recruiting members. As long as there are no major problems, you can basically submit an application.

Just looking at the description, it looks like a common club in a university, but Gongsun Ce, who has dealt with both organizations, has a different opinion.

"Don't believe what they said, it's just Deathwing with a new layer of skin." He picked up a piece of bacon with his chopsticks, and said with a frown, "You have seen the leader of the Light Core, a self-righteous mentally handicapped. As for the Mutual Aid Society...they The president is considered a decent person, but he is not the leader of the righteous way, it is not uncommon for him to say that he is helping each other, helping himself."

"The last time they came was more than a year ago. Why did Ah Ce suddenly mention this?"

Gongsun Ce manipulated the plates to fly back into the sink, turned on the faucet with telekinetic power, and washed the dishes.

"After the last incident, the whole body collapsed, and Deathwing existed in name only. Those two organizations are probably busy grabbing Deathwing's territory recently, absorbing new members to expand their power, and maybe they will turn their minds down to those who do not belong to the organization. on those with abilities."

This is the superficial reason.The real reason is to divert the eldest lady's attention with serious topics so that she no longer pays attention to the order.

Qin Qianbai stared into his eyes: "I'm trying to find a way to get rid of the order."

"Sometimes I really doubt that you have awakened your mind reading skills. Is my lie so easy to see through?"

The eldest lady stretched out her hand and gestured.

"Probably a little harder than eating a potato chip."

"How good am I in your mind?"

·
After breakfast, Gongsun Ce waited anxiously for about 5 minutes before receiving new instructions.

"Look, look, this is a compassionate expression. Playing truth or truth and watching animation together, which order do you want?"

"In short, first rule out the previous game that has no choice."

Qin Qianbai sat on the sofa and gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.

So far, the program is going very well.

According to Caldesia's suggestion, first use breaking into the bedroom as a shocking start, then use breakfast and daily topics to ease the atmosphere, and then use animation as an opportunity to get closer to Ah Ce's characteristics.

When they realized it, they were already leaning against each other on the sofa... Afterwards, based on Ah Ce's reaction, they would choose the next battle.

It's perfect. According to this plan, it will definitely succeed.

"Miss, what do you want to see today?"

"Just leave it to Ah Ce to decide."

Qin Qianbai occupied a favorable position on the sofa and was full of confidence.

Audience battle starts now!
·
So, more than 3 hours later.

Gongsun Ce stood in the middle of the living room and said in shock: "What's going on, is there a new weapon that I don't know about?"

"You who use war as a means, you won't understand..."

Zheng!Zheng!The two men with toy lightsabers fought for two rounds, and the outcome was deadlocked.Qin Qianbai retreated slightly to open the distance, Gongsun Ce was about to pursue, but his movements stopped suddenly.

"Move! the-o!" he said in a cold sweat, "why not move!"

Qin Qianbai put his hands together and stabbed the young man in the abdomen.

"Ahhhh-!"

The animation broadcast on TV happened to have the same name scene, and the exaggerated cry of the gray-haired youth was synchronized with the villain who was sanctioned in the animation.

The eldest lady waved her hand and turned around: "Go back to the woman."

"woman……?"

What is going on now is an activity called "Restore the Famous Scene".In plain language, animation fans imitate the lines of the characters to restore the plot in the play.

The gray-haired youth (playing the role of the villain) fell down with a plop, and the young lady (playing the protagonist) made a concluding speech.

"Ah, a very big star is twinkling..."

"That's wrong! Those are the lines from the TV version!!" Gongsun Ce said on the ground, "The theater version has a happy ending!"

Qin Qianbai pulled the neighbor up, and said blankly: "I prefer the original TV version. The theater version with a happy ending feels inexplicably unreal after watching it."

Personally beautiful stories against a heavy background always seem a bit inconsistent.

Some people think that "the sad development can better reflect the profoundness of the work", and some people think that "even if it is unreasonable, they want to see a better direction". .

Gongsun Ce secretly laughed twice in his heart, followed the momentum and said, "ZZ is too long, shall we order a takeaway to watch CCA?"

"sure."

The young miss, who was immersed in the animation, only remembered to check the time at this moment.

Now, it is almost twelve o'clock.

In an instant, Miss Qin's aura became like a villain in a black and white stick figure.She couldn't help but press the gray-haired young man on the sofa: "I'm going out to make a phone call, Ah Ce is not allowed to move."

"At your command~"

Gongsun Ce watched the girl walk out of the room, laughing inwardly.

Didn't expect it to be so easy to achieve the effect!Many people will have a similar experience when watching animations and unknowingly forget the business. This is the core of this anti-command operation...

You must have some plans, miss, but Mr. Gongsun is better than me!
This is exactly the trap I prepared for you!
·
"Xiaoqian, what do you mean, you were so fascinated by watching the animation that you forgot all about the close-range combat?"

"……Um"

The girl in the top hat on the other side of the phone said at the top of her voice, "——Are you a primary school student?! Gongsun Ce who would make such a trap is a weirdo, and you who can step into it with one foot must have problems!!!"

"What, what should I do, Caldesia?"

"Immediately, now, immediately give up the battle at Gongsun Ce's house. Move the venue, and take that dead house out!"

·
The eldest lady who came again put on the small bag she had when she went out, and put on a sun hat on her head.She said seriously: "Ah Ce, you are not allowed to watch animation, go out with me to buy clothes."

The title of an old animated movie was playing on the TV, and a white robot just emerged from under the cloth to reveal a monitor.Gongsun Ce asked in the main theme of the movie: "Really? I've already started. Such a classic movie, are you really sure you don't want to go out after watching it?"

Miss Qin wrestled with the desire in her heart for half a second, and said decisively: "See you next time."

The gray-haired young man sighed exaggeratedly, and stood up slowly: "Okay, okay... Where are we going?"

·
Ten minutes later, the two stood at the door of a family restaurant.

The restaurant, located near their apartment building, has received rave reviews for its generous portions and affordable prices.Most of the food here is good, but there are also some quirky new items introduced every season to attract customers' attention.

The "seasonal limit" of this season is asparagus durian pie, biochemical kangaroo soup, cherry blossom flavored squid crisps and 100% pure earth cake.

Gongsun Ce glanced over these new dishes that looked extremely lethal, and shivered slightly.

"Miss, at least don't let me eat these." He said pitifully, "You can't bear to see me vomit while holding the toilet."

Qin Qianbai made a fist with one hand and tapped the palm.

"Excellent, Ah Ce offered to give him an idea to torture himself."

"You didn't expect it?! Then why did you choose this place?"

"I want to eat something I didn't eat yesterday." Her eyes were a little gloomy. "Yesterday, to show my sincerity, I asked Caldesia to eat a lot of desserts, but I forgot to order for myself..."

How much interest do you have in torturing me that you invite that tormenting maniac to advise you? !

The term "consulting and strategizing" sounds like two villains trying to find a way to dismember him, Gongsun Ce. After this association, he was in a bad mood.

Could it be that what we are going to face this afternoon is a whole person plan specially planned by Caldesia? !
"Miss, don't be like this, miss." Gongsun Ce said with a sad face, "I will have nightmares if you become like Caldesia."

He walked into the restaurant sadly, and the waiter at the door said in a cold tone that could not hear any enthusiasm: "Welcome light... Ga!"

Either he heard it wrong, or this place has activated a biochemical duck as a waiter.

"Is this some new mouth fetish that is popular recently?"

His gaze swept over the waiter who was making strange noises.

The first thing that catches the eye is the big sunglasses and mask that cover the entire face, followed by a purple hair that looks familiar, and finally the orange top, plaid skirt and matching white apron that look very warm and family style.

He took off his glasses, wiped them off, and put them on again. This time he confirmed more details: the white stockings on his calves and the big bow on his head.

Gongsun Ce rubbed his eyes vigorously: "I..."

The purple-haired waiter spoke very quickly: "You have misunderstood the person, my name is Baismail Abdullah Hassan al-Din."

Gongsun Ce nodded again and again: "Oh, oh."

The eldest lady who entered the door looked curiously at the two people who were looking at each other speechlessly. Gongsun Ce was silent for about a second and said, "So..."

The purple-haired waiter repeated loudly.

"My name is Besmay Abdullah Hassan al-Din!"

"Oh, yes." Gongsun Ce nodded expressionlessly, "Oh."
